Senses of the Soul

Discovering your soul's journey through chakra archetypes, nature's medicine and cosmic events. How deeply do you want to live your life? Hello!

Senses of the Soul is dedicated to supporting others on their soulful journey to embrace their highest illuminative potential. All parts of this visionary business, from its clinical practice, product line, Ascension offerings, and seaside garden/botanical sanctuary form a cohesive vision to uplift, inspire and empower others to become conscious co-creators of their own life, and engage as self-r

esponsible caretakers of our beloved planet. Now more than ever we are being called to step up to heal our wounds and reclaim our authentic inner power in service to each other, the planet, and the universe. My name is Samantha Orthlieb - Contemporary Medicine Woman and Evolutionary Oracle who is able to intuit the health challenges of my clients on a physical and psychospiritual level and connect them with the appropriate plant or other vibrational medicine energy needed to restore balance to the individual in the areas he or she needs to heal. I believe that everything on the planet and in the cosmos is part of one universal energy field and that every thought and action has the power to ripple out across the world. We are now in the Age of Aquarius and humanity is in the throes of creating a new way of living and being in preparation for the 2032 Golden Age. It is time to awaken, shed what no longer serves us, and step into our full potential. Illness and chaos will continue to manifest in the body, heart, and mind until we embrace self-responsibility, empowerment, and heart-centered, eco-spirituality. We can then become conscious co-creators with each other and establish a sustainable and fulfilling destiny on the planet for ourselves and future generations. Follow my Ascension Energies Updates for intuitively channeled insights on our Human Ascension process and the embodiment of a new Human Evolutionary Template within ourselves. My Ascension Updates contain the latest themes, patterns, and common health and wellness issues that are affecting each of us and the collective consciousness as we upgrade and heal during this new paradigm of Love and Light. My book: Opening the Senses of the Soul draws on over 20 years of clinical experience working with thousands of clients to illuminate how returning to Mother Earth in the form of vibrational medicine can be one of our most valuable tools in this process. Opening the Senses of the Soul allows us to:

•move past our harmful physical symptoms, patterns, roles, beliefs, and self-serving, fear-based behaviours
•restore balance in our physical bodies and lives and release what no longer serves us
•reclaim our inner power and overcome our current cultural apathy
•open our intuition and awareness to enable us to be of service for the highest good of all
•flow with change and integrate new messages from the universal consciousness into our whole being
•live with depth and focus in our daily experiences

Aug 7, 2020: 5 years ago on this day I launched the Senses of the Soul Oracle Deck.

The launch was delayed due to printing issues, and therefore I received the card decks from the printer during the COVID "pandemic".

I felt I could not have picked a worse time to launch, however I knew I needed to trust what was happening, and surrender my creative process to the higher good.

Looking back I can see how what I offered may have helped those that used my oracle deck to tap into their own intuition, and thus sagely guide them through the upheaval in the world at that time.

This deck of intrepid archetypal and plant wisdom is a culmination of my life's work.

It is a homage to the Human Ascension process.

These cards have been my constant companion, guiding me through many trials, and supporting me to digest my emotions, while providing insight and clarity through frustration, loss, hopelessness, grief, confusion and overwhelm.

If you have my oracle deck I hope it has supported you, given you solace, guidance, wisdom and comfort as you journey along your soulful path.

Let me know if you use it, and how it has impacted you.

I would really appreciate hearing from you! 🩷

AUGUST 2025 Ascension Energies Update:

August's energies bring alchemy, and there will be more light that seeks to move through us, to initiate us into an awareness that we are capable of being a channel for beauty, abundance, grace and joy .

We are allowed to be free and receive all that we need.

There is a cosmic nudge to fully release the Victim Archetype - it's time to trust the universe, ourselves and let go!

It's also time for closure, asking the now wiser heart to release the past, so that we can find peace and inner balance with any remaining trauma, emotions and relationships that restrict the unfolding of the next stage of our destiny.

More in my video!

July 26 - Leo Lions Gate Portal opens (peaks Aug 8, ends Aug 12)

July 18 to August 11, 2025 (PT) - Mercury Retrograde in Leo

July 28, 29 - Delta Aquarids Meteor shower peaks (starts July 12 and ends on August 19

We are almost 10 days into Mercury Retrograde, 1 day into the Lion's Gate Portal, and coming up to the peak of the Delta Aquarids Meteor shower.

Radiant Leo coded energy is moving through us, helping us increase our sense of self worth, self esteem and self belief. We are opening, transforming!

In particular we are healing our third chakra, and the Warrior and Spiritual Warrior Archetypes that reside there, to another level of divine resonance and reclaiming more of our spiritual light.

It is a time for closure, asking the now wiser heart to let go, so that we can find peace and inner balance with past trauma, emotions and relationships. There is a need for grieving, releasing, and nurturing ourselves.

Slowly spiritual optimism is returning, transforming anxiety to acceptance, fear and doubt to wisdom and faith.

As the Lion's Gate is now open there is an invitation to surrender, asking us to be open to receiving, and offer up a generous, trusting and empowered heart. To know we are held by the universe, and can relax into a soft place within that allows for the next phase of the soul's journey to begin.

We are transforming into a creative vessel, a deep well, to receive the new blessings and growth that are coming our way. We are in the pause, the in between, the preparation.

A breakthrough is coming!

August's energies bring alchemy, and there will be more light that seeks to move through us, to initiate us into an awareness that we are capable of being a channel for beauty, abundance, grace and joy.

We ARE allowed to receive all that we need.

It's time to trust this and ourselves.
