let’s talk about it…

You’re here because you’re looking for  clarity.

Maybe you’re wondering if this is the right job or relationship for you.

Perhaps you want to connect with your ancestors

and communicate with the spirits guiding you.

It could seem like everything is going wrong and you don’t know why or how to fix it.

Welcome. I am so happy that you’ve found me.

“Most people are afraid of suffering.

But suffering is a kind of mud

to help the lotus flower of happiness grow.

There can be no lotus flower without the mud.”

a little bit about me…

My name is Isabella Lloyd-Damnjanovic, and I am a professional tarot reader, Slavic folk witch, and energetic alchemist.

My educational and professional background is in sociology, policy and data analysis, & academic research and education. I am also a CPTSD survivor. For years, I bounced around from jobs craving a deeper sense of purpose and connection, feeling perpetually unfulfilled. It wasn’t until I went through a “dark night of the soul," dove deep into my own spiritual journey, and discovered the symbolic language of the tarot that I was able to tap into my personal power, initiate profound healing, and begin manifesting the life I’ve always dreamed of.

Today, I am studying to become a licensed clinical social worker while I run Balkanska Magic Co., a spiritual enterprise offering guidance channeled through divination. I also craft beautifully intentional gemstone jewelry pieces; perform spellwork for clients looking for magical assistance; and create custom guided meditation and affirmation tapes for those looking to reprogram their subconscious mind.

Whether you are completely new to spirituality or have a strong practice, I have something to offer you. Balkanska is a safe place for those who know that the spiritual path—like life—is not all love and light. In fact, it is riddled with obstacles, challenges, and Tower moments. It is those moments of profound darkness and crisis that drive us to seek the light.

The reality is that we can only bask in the warmth of the light when we face the coldness of the shadows. I am here to support and guide you with loving awareness and the acknowledgement that this process is often painful, messy, confusing, and unglamorous. That’s OK. As Buddhist monk and poet Thích Nhất Hạnh famously wrote,

Julia C.

“My reading with Isabella opened up this beautiful pocket of space and time that truly allowed for previously unseen possibilities to enter. She was so down-to-earth and personable that I never expected to feel so transported through this process of divination and message channeling. I felt seen. I felt my circumstances seen. Because of this they could not stay the same. This is to say: Isabella is alchemist and witch and I can’t recommend her enough.”
