Welcome to Rachel Hope’s Ethereal Spiritual Table
A Sacred Invitation to Explore Spiritual Healing, Intuition & Soul Growth
You’re warmly invited to pull up a chair at my ethereal spiritual table — a sacred space where healing, deep connection, and intuitive discovery unfold.
The revitalized art gallery is set to redefine cultural landscape.
Have you ever heard people talking about spirit guides? What even are spirit guides? Rachel channels spirit guides in every single session. Read more…
Each person has three to four main spirit guides who are with them from the moment they incarnate until they return to the spirit realm. Before we’re born, our soul chooses many details about the life we’re going to live, and we enter this lifetime with a team of spirit guides who promise to support us every step of the way.
That support can show up in many forms. Sometimes it’s the right people coming into our lives at exactly the right moment. Other times, it’s life experiences that gently nudge us back toward the path our soul chose. And occasionally, it can be a difficult or even devastating event—one that wakes us up and redirects us toward the purpose we signed up for before incarnating.
Spirit guides are loving beings whose only intention is to help us grow, learn, and remember who we truly are. In every single session I’ve ever done, I’ve communicated with my client’s spirit guides. They are always present, always supportive, and always working in our highest good.

How do you connect with “Spirit”? Who are you actually talking to?
I connect with the other side by first coming into a meditative state. I close my eyes and take several deep breaths to center myself, and my body begins to feel very heavy. From there, I say an opening prayer or mantra, calling in only spirits of light and love and asking that they come through in the highest and greatest good.
I ask that the messages be clear and that I’m able to deliver them with kindness, compassion, and care. I also acknowledge any lower energies that may be present and intentionally send them away. Once that energetic space is clear and protected, the session can begin.
I don’t use tools like cards or other objects. Instead, I tune in directly. Soon after, I typically sense the person’s team of spirit guides around them, and communication begins through that connection..
How did you find out about your gifts?
When I was a young child, I used to see my father’s mother sitting on the right side of my bed every night as I fell asleep. I was terrified—she had passed away before I was born, and I had never met her. I recognized her from family photos, but no one around me understood what I was experiencing.
My mother has since shared that I cried for her often and would ask where she was. At the time, she didn’t realize I was seeing my grandmother sitting there each night. It was during those early years that I began to understand that what I was experiencing wasn’t considered “normal.” The visits stopped around the time I was six.
As I grew older, I carried strong intuitive knowings about people and situations. These insights often made me seem older or more mature than my age, but they also frightened me. I would sometimes sense difficult events before they happened. I was open to everything then and hadn’t yet learned how to filter the information coming through.
For much of my life, I believed these abilities were a curse. I learned quickly to keep quiet about my premonitions and carried them privately, unsure how to understand or manage what I was experiencing.
What does your family think?
This is an interesting question. My children are in elementary school and mostly just think I’m a little weird — though they’ve already shown similar gifts themselves.
I was once afraid to tell my parents because of how I was raised. Both of them worked in the medical field, and while they were spiritual, they didn’t believe in ghosts. My religious upbringing also taught me to fear and reject people like me. There was a strong misconception that those with abilities like mine were connected to dark spirits, when nothing could be further from the truth.
When I finally shared this part of myself with my parents, they accepted me exactly as I am. It helped them better understand me — and the child they raised. Today, my closest friends and family fully support my gifts and remain just as amazed as I am by the work I do. I’m simply here to deliver messages that are loving, healing, and often truly miraculous..
Have you always believed in an afterlife?
Definitely not! For the first eighteen years of my life, I was very religious and deeply spiritual, but I didn’t yet understand what I was truly born with—an open connection to the “other side.”
After leaving my small town, I traveled the world, learning about different cultures, languages, and religions. I realized my own religion felt too judgmental and exclusionary. It didn’t align with my deep knowing that we are all part of a greater Light—no matter what.
Later, I went through a period of deep depression and darkness. I didn’t believe in a higher power or an afterlife. I thought, if Divine love exists, it wouldn’t allow me to suffer like I did—so maybe it wasn’t real.
Through what I believe was divine intervention, my spirit guides led me to a counselor who helped me make life changes that saved me. I began practicing yoga and meditation, and that’s when I discovered what a medium truly is—a person who can see and hear beyond the veil. I finally understood, “Ah, that’s what’s been going on with me!”
After overcoming years of religious-induced shame and self-judgment, I began sitting with people in meditation. One session changed everything. A young woman came to me whose mother had died. During the session, her mother came through and, in a powerful moment, took control of my right hand to write her daughter letters—something her mother had done before passing. My hand curled into a painful, unnatural position, mirroring her mother’s own hand. The daughter saw it all clearly, and from that day forward, she knew her mother still existed. Much of her grief and pain lifted.
In that moment, I realized I could never deny this gift to others, no matter my own shame or fear. To this day, I think of that young woman, and as a mother myself, I would carry any shame for the rest of my life just to connect one mother with her beloved child. That is the heart of my work, and the reason I trust in the afterlife so completely.
