Guest Fridays in the Garden: Misty Evans
A soft series spotlighting kindred voices, tender truths, and sacred thresholds.
Welcome to Guest Friday in the Garden, my friend!
Every other Friday, we open the gates of The Garden to a soul friend, a guest whose presence feels like a breath, a lantern, or a quiet remembering. These are not performances. They are pauses. Reflections. Sacred glimpses into who we are all still becoming.
This week, I’m honored to host Misty Evans of Readings With Misty—an intuitive oracle card reader and spiritual guide who helps souls receive clarity, direction, and divine encouragement through the wisdom of the cards. ✨🔮
Misty creates safe, uplifting spaces where synchronicity becomes insight, and your intuition feels like home. Whether you’re seeking a soulful spark, a clear path forward, or a message your heart’s been waiting for, Misty’s gentle presence and intuitive gifts are here to support your journey.
Who are you becoming right now?
“I'm becoming someone who embraces both the light and the shadow with equal curiosity. There's this interesting unfolding happening where I'm less concerned with having all the answers and more excited about asking better questions.
What feels most alive in me lately is this playful dance between structure and spontaneity—I've been creating more fluid frameworks for my oracle work while leaving plenty of room for divine surprise and guidance. It's like I've finally given myself permission to be both the serious oracle and the person who laughs at cosmic jokes!”
I love how Misty is giving herself permission to hold the mystery with both reverence and a wink. This dance between depth and delight feels like such sacred leadership.
What threshold or transition has shaped your work or voice most recently?
“The most transformative threshold I've crossed in the past ten years has been realizing I don't have to separate my intuitive gifts from my everyday life. For years, I kept my gifts hidden, and even after embracing them, I only used them during readings and when performing mediumship work. The transition has allowed my intuition to permeate everything: grocery shopping, difficult conversations, even picking out outfits or listening to music. This integration has made my readings more grounded and relatable and has strengthened my connection to Spirit. I'm walking in this delicious in-between space where the mystical and mundane hold hands, and honestly, my clients are feeling that authenticity.”
This integration is everything. The way Misty has let her intuition infuse the mundane feels like a quiet revolution and such a gift to those who get to witness the magic in her everyday becoming.
What does your Inner Child still know that you sometimes forget?
“My inner child shows up in my dreams. She remembers that wonder doesn't need credentials or certifications, although she loves learning. She knows that stargazing isn't improved by understanding astronomy (though it's fascinating), and that sometimes shuffling cards while dancing to 80s pop music creates better readings than solemn rituals. She reminds me that before I learned 'proper' techniques, I trusted my gut and often got things exactly right. She knows that play is a spiritual practice, and laughter clears energy better than any expensive crystal or intricate ceremony.”
Oh yes… this is sacred remembering. Misty’s Divine inner child holds such clear wisdom. This is such a beautiful reminder that joy is ceremony, and play is often the most precise portal. Thank you for letting her lead, Misty!
Tell us about your work: who is it for, and what do you hope they feel when they receive it?
“My work is for the spiritually curious who don't necessarily fit into neat metaphysical boxes, or any boxes for that matter. The tarot enthusiasts who also love science, the skeptics with unexplainable experiences, the corporate professionals who keep crystals in their desk drawers. It's for people who sense there's more to life but don't want to abandon critical thinking to explore it.
When someone receives my oracle guidance, I hope they feel simultaneously seen and expanded—recognized in their current reality while glimpsing possibilities they hadn't considered. I want them to feel that delightful shiver of validation when something resonates deeply, but also leave with practical next steps. More than anything, I hope they feel permission to trust themselves more deeply. My readings encourage people to trust their own innate wisdom, and offer a sprinkle of cosmic perspective and perhaps a few laughs to lighten the journey.”
That blend of grounded magic and cosmic permission is so palpable in Misty’s work. It’s like she’s holding a lantern for the in-between souls… the ones who crave both mystery and meaning. The way she invites people to trust themselves more deeply? That’s not just guidance, it’s liberation.
What lights you up creatively or spiritually right now?
“I'm a storyteller at heart, so I'm always excited to write and tell stories. Oracle and tarot cards give us symbols, numbers, and speak to our subconscious. Each card is like a story in and of itself. Put them together in a reading, and they can reveal so much that you intuitively know but aren't consciously aware of. I also love discussing all things metaphysical, including cards, crystals, healing energies, astrology, numerology, and mediumship. I can go on for hours.
What's sparking the most wonder lately is witnessing how people are reaching for authentic connections these days. Collaborations, such as this interview with you, are an example. Building communities around these "woo-woo" subjects, bringing them into our everyday world, gives me immense joy. No more hiding our gifts and interests. We're embracing them and letting the world see us. We rediscover ourselves when we form these bonds. It's natural magic that you can't buy or force.”
I feel that so deeply… the storytelling, the symbols, the soul hunger for authentic connection. It’s like we’re all weaving new mythologies together, one card and conversation at a time. And yes… this kind of natural magic is exactly what the world’s been waiting for.
A Piece From Misty to Sit With
The most powerful oracle you'll ever consult is the quiet voice within you that speaks when you create enough space to listen. Courage isn't about having all the answers or never feeling afraid—it's about taking that next small step even while your knees shake a little.
The universe conspires through synchronicity and symbols to remind you that you're never truly walking alone. Those moments when you think, "Is this a sign?" usually are. Trust that nudge. The most profound divination often happens in ordinary moments—a chance conversation, a book falling open to exactly the right page, or the perfect song playing just when you needed its message.
Remember that even the most seasoned psychics and intuitives still face uncertainty. We simply learn to befriend it rather than fear it. I invite you to practice this gentle bravery: ask the difficult questions, sit with the unclear answers, and trust that clarity arrives exactly when it's meant to.
Your path is uniquely yours, and that's not just beautiful—it's necessary.
