Private Membership Circle
Are you seeking a liberation-centered, dynamic, and deeply engaged framework to structure your inner life and embodied experience?
Whether you're an experienced practitioner, just starting your journey into divination, or—like many of our members—simply enjoy using oracular frameworks to structure your engagement with the Mystery, we welcome you! The Four Queens Membership Circle is for anyone seeking innovative strategies and continuous, powerful divinatory guidance.
Led by the writers and diviners Lou Florez, Kristen E. Nelson, and Selah Saterstrom, the Four Queens Membership Circle is a private circle where we dig into the art of navigating the complex, untidy, and wondrous path of the human experience through divination and creativity. Between us we have authored eight award-winning books and have over seventy-five years of professional divination experience.
Each month, the Membership immerses itself in distinct themes that resonate with the rhythm of the season. We curate a space that embraces revelation, healing, self-discovery, and empowerment.
Questions? Feel free to reach out. Whether you prefer correspondence via email or would like to schedule a call or Zoom meeting, we're happy to address any questions you may have.

About Selah Saterstrom
“I was taught that divination is a realm where we willingly engage with the benevolent invisible and in so doing, open to the possibility of cultivating a unique relationship with uncertainty, one infused with deep significance. Divination encourages compassionate curiosity as a response to our experiences, recognizing that nothing heals or shifts in a space of shame or judgment. Through divination we connect with strategies and frameworks that can guide us in aligning with our holiest iteration of self. Rather than fixating on predetermined outcomes, divination centers liberation, reminding us of our inherent agency.”
Selah Saterstrom is a celebrated diviner who practices a Southern family-style of card reading. Over the past three decades, she has dedicated herself to providing divinatory guidance to her communities. She is the author of five books, including Ideal Suggestions: Essays in Divinatory Poetics, which has garnered widespread critical acclaim. As a distinguished educator, she has shared her knowledge through teaching and lecturing across the United States and internationally and serves as a highly regarded consultant, lending her insights to various organizations and institutions who seek to (re)vision their mission and values. At the core of Selah's work is the belief that divination possesses formidable capabilities to navigate oppressive structures and unveil profound revelations in the name of generative transformation. Divination, for Selah, is an inseparable and essential aspect of her mission to serve others. Read more about Selah.
About Lou Florez
At its core, divination is about discerning the movements of consciousness—the sentient journey of spirit as it transitions from the intangible into physicality. It's akin to watching verbs dance within the framework of nouns; a dynamic interplay of action within form. This sacred art is both an exploration and a conversation illuminating the path to our innermost brilliance. It seeks to amplify the voice of intuition, an energetic vocalization resonating within every cell, echoing through our being since our earliest emergence in this body, across multiple incarnations of this self.
Divination transcends simple forecasts of what may come. It delves into the profound dialogue that occurs between and within the various strata of the self. It probes questions that animate our existence: What sparks a signal's journey across a synapse? From where does desire well up in our hearts? What fuels our resolve to face each new day, even when shrouded in despair or dulled by the world's bleakness?
This practice is not just about foreseeing futures; it's about understanding the present in its deepest sense. It's about recognizing the silent, yet incessant communication that underpins our every thought, feeling, and impulse. Divination serves as a bridge, connecting the conscious and the subconscious, the seen and the unseen, the known and the mysterious. It's a tool for self-reflection, a guide to inner wisdom, and a medium for unraveling the enigmas of the soul. Through these practices, we learn to listen to the subtle whispers at play within our inner selves, gaining insights that propel us forward, navigating the complexities of life with a renewed sense of purpose, clarity, and understanding.
Lou Florez (Awo Ifadunsin) is a diviner and metaphysical reader who facilitates spiritual connectivity and transformational empowerment throughout his myriad roles as a Priest, lecturer, author, medicine maker, and activist. His work is inherently interdisciplinary and intersectional—bridging the fields of herbalism, ecology, divination, poetry, psychology, religious studies, gender and sexual studies, mixed-media art, and perfumery. Lou investigates the emanating Spirit present within all these fields and incorporates them into experiences that activate the Spirit within. Read more about Lou.
About Kristen E. Nelson
At its heart, divination is about gaining insight into ontological approaches—it is less about predicting a singular outcome, and more about seeing alternative paths through. When I pull cards, I seek illumination for the querent with the support of my guides, my oracle, and my intuition. In a world full of uncertainty, divination offers a way of visioning and re-visioning ourselves, our lives, our challenges, and our celebrations.
Kristen E. Nelson is a queer writer and performer, diviner, teacher, and community builder. Kristen has been studying divination for 28 years and has been working with clients for over 20 years. Her specialties are tarot card readings and prescriptive magic solutions for crossed conditions. She reads primarily from Daughters of the Moon tarot, a feminist interpretation of the Rider Smith Waite deck. Kristen is the author of the length of this gap (Damaged Goods, August 2018) and two chapbooks: sometimes I gets lost and is grateful for noises in the dark (Dancing Girl, 2017) and Write, Dad (Unthinkable Creatures, 2012). She lives in Santa Cruz, California and is pursuing a PhD in Creative/Critical Writing at UCSC.
