About Me

Hi everyone! My name is Sydney Rumohr and I am currently a full time student at Pacific Rim College in Victoria, BC doing a diploma in Clinical Herbalism.

The path I took to get here has been quite the windy one with many twists and turns, be it exciting, scary, sadening, and yet always surprising. My entire childhood, every birthday I wished on my candles that I would become a witch; of course, now I realize I had the tool set for this ability all along. Throughout my life I have always felt this deep connection to nature, spirituality, and the ability to always see good in people no matter their faults. This search for witchcraft took me to the other side of the waters over to Edinburgh, Scotland, where I still have many relatives today. Europe, especially the UK, had been a vision of mine since I was a kid, I somehow knew I would feel familiarity amongst the old architecture, folklore, country/small village living, and dramatic landscapes. While living in Edinburgh, I don't think I have ever felt more at home then when I did my daily dog walks up Arthurs Seat and peered down to the ancient, medieval city below. There is something so mystical and eerie about this beautiful city that makes you feel truly connected to the spirit world.

Unfortunately, I had to move my life back to Canada in 2020, and I came back quite lost with my identity. Luckily I ended up trying to recenter myself by working on an organic veggie farm in Saanichton, BC on Vancouver Island and fell in love with watching the life cycle of plants. That summer was full of love, magic, and spontaneity and it was though this time period where I got to see the powerful healing powers of plants. This led me to enroll at Pacific Rim College to live out my dream of attending a real world Hogwarts and studying the old world medicine of Herbalism. These past couple years have been the best years of my life as I learn more about myself everyday by working with complex and diverse plant personalities. A surprise I never expected was to fall in love with the Science behind plant medicine and how science and spirituality can work so synergistically together in helping aid a imbalanced person back to their aligned wholeness. I can't wait to work with the community to help those in need of spiritual or medical guidance in coming back to their bodies and intuition so that they can heal their own bodies, mind, and spirit and live their lives in synergy to the natural world.

It is in the dark that we heal, and we learn that through the observation of plants and their natural life cycles. Now, I will leave you with my favourite quote:

“The world isn’t split into good people and Death Eaters. We’ve all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That’s who we really are.”
