hi! Im felix, a community herbalist. I have been studying herbalism formally for 5 years now though I have been learning from plants for a much longer time. you can usually find me sipping on multiple hot beverages, talking to the river or hawthorn trees near my home, dancing alone in my room, and cooking with my friends.

 I am german and mexican-american and have spent half my life living in a small town in southern germany and the other half on the west coast in california (awaswas-ohlone, tongva, and kumeyaay lands) and consider all home in different ways. growing up in multiple countries / cultures / languages has shaped me greatly and I feel very passionate about the experience of mixed ancestry folks and the importance of finding a sense of belonging within ourselves. 

 I value anti-colonialism, anti-fascism, anti-capitalism and liberation for all and I am constantly in process myself in learning how to better live these myself. I believe the world is animate and one of the biggest problems in the world is that we have forgotten how to communicate with the natural world around us. more than maybe ever before we have enormous tasks of working towards cultural change, protecting each other and the earth, and fighting couragously for justice. and I strongly believe we need to be our most nourished, grounded, and connected Selfs to live up to the task of doing this sacred and vital work.

I am a queer and non-binary person. My sun is in capricorn, my moon and rising are in libra if that means anything to you. I consider myself a quite sensitive, slow and emotional human and I am learning that these are actually some of my greatest gifts.
