About Me
Born into Catholicism, I did not find in this religion a sense of peace or comfort. Instead, from a very young age, I felt constantly plagued by self-doubt and fearful that my actions would inevitably lead me away from the “promised land.” After exploring Protestantism and the teachings of Jehovah’s Witnesses, I focused my intention on other forms of spirituality. I dabbled into the Kabbalah and Buddhist teachings and eventually became intrigued by Tarot.
I discovered oracle cards during a difficult time of transition: at 26, while undergoing my Saturn Return, and fully immersed in one of those dark nights of the soul. At the time, I was pursuing my master’s degree and was struggling big time. Having been raised in a family that highly praised academic achievements, my sense of inner worth soon became intrinsically tied to these external accomplishments, so pursuing a graduate degree felt like the natural thing to do. I had excelled in my undergraduate years, and securing a full scholarship at a prestigious institution to pursue an MA + Ph.D. felt like this young overachiever immigrant’s ultimate dream. However, it would not be long before imposter syndrome set in. The sense of not belonging, the tremendous workload, and the isolation exacerbated a preexisting anxiety disorder and left me terribly burned out.
Hi there! I am Meriam Elizabeth, and I started Intuitive Currents in 2023 out of a deep calling to share parts of me I had long kept concealed. Born and raised in the Dominican Republic, my life’s journey has been profoundly shaped by movement—as in loss, migration, renewal, and endless transformation.
The sudden loss of both of my parents within 14 months drastically altered the course of my life and gave way to a cycle of migration that led me from Santo Domingo to New York City and eventually to Chicago, where I currently reside. The shock, grief, and discombobulation these events arose in me fueled my innate spiritual inclinations.
From a very young age, I felt that within me resided a unique source of wisdom. What I realize now were premonitory dreams filled my nights. These dreams communicated events and patterns through vivid symbols, colors, and animal medicine, whose meaning would only begin to unfold many years later.
In this context, abiding by the prescribed meanings of tarot cards felt forced and unnatural. Enter oracle cards, which transformed my life with their beautiful imagery, versatility, and openness for interpretation. Their mantras helped me move past negative self-talk, and the prescribed practices allowed for the ritualizing of my spiritual healing journey and the reclaiming of my innate powers and knowledge. I am formally trained as an Intuitive Oracle Reader of The Moondeck (2020) and have been offering intuitive readings since then.
Most recently, my journey into motherhood has deepened my intuitive gifts, compassion, sensibilities, and strength. Through motherhood, I have found the courage to launch forward, to bring my deepest dreams to fruition, and to extend my heart’s wisdom through these sacred offerings.
My readings take place in both English and Spanish and are conducted live or delivered in written and audio formats.
What began as a personal practice has grown into a supportive offering, through which I have witnessed women from many life paths reawaken their sense of courage and reclaim their power.
I look forward to working with you in divine timing.
