I’d like to share a little bit more about myself, if you don’t mind.

The name I chose for myself, while under the influence of my first Saturn return, is Kaya Sattva. Kaya meaning capable, Sattva meaning pure. I liken myself to a Radical Boddhisattva, as my soul’s highest aspiration is to love and help uplift humanity, and raise the energy of the world - all the while doing it by any radical means necessary.

Oakland has been home to me for the past 31 years. I spent the 21 years prior growing up in San Diego CA, Baguio Philippines, Kailua Hawaii, and San Francisco respectively.

The conception of my son was prophesied in a spontaneous daydream I had one afternoon and the following year he made his earthly entry on the same day I completed my 36th revolution around the sun. My beloved wife Cally and I gave him the name Trevor simply because we like the feel and sound of it.

I’ve worn many many hats over the years, by placing myself where I could best learn and shine the light. Right now I’m wearing one that I believe will become even more supple and giving with time, like the leather of finely crafted gloves. I’m a transpersonal hypnotherapist, and if I were to hand you my business card, my title might read something like Group Meditation Docent, Psychedelic Journey Guide 🍄, Quantum Time Travel Agent 🛸, Explorer of Human Consciousness 💡, Keeper of Questions 🗝, Facilitator of Higher Consciousness Channeling and Oracular Discourse 🗣.

I like the sound of an opening soda can, and dislike the sight of cabinets and drawers left open. I enjoy stringing together words that happen to rhyme, and while I’m abundantly creative I’m occasionally saddened to think that I might not have the needed hours to create all of the things that I want to create in this current lifetime.

One of my super powers is evoking the sharing of very personal stories.
