I have been going to The Sword and Rose for nearly 40 years. There is such a welcoming spirit to…read morethis place that I find my self reenergized after every visit. This is, without a doubt, a San Francisco gem. Hard to find, with a beautiful garden outside. I highly recommend a visit. There are great restaurants in the area and it is right off the N muni.

I had such a great time yesterday. I like living in San Francisco not just for the micro climate…read morebut also because a few blocks down the street is like me going into a different village/township from the boring suburbia. Hayes/Hayes Valley just has just my favorite gypsy vibe. And Sword & Roses is just a historical representation of this 60s/70s SF lifestyle. I had a much needed concern coupled with recent tragic fire in HK (where my parents are. They don't live in the incident apt complex but still dark mood all over b/c of the bad news) that need addressing and spending a few hours at the shoppe just rejuvenated me. Yes, this is not a shoppe where you browse quick and rush out, I would avoid that if that is your plan cos you could meddle up the peace and flow of things there, j/k. Everywhere you turn, you will find gems literally in the shoppe. I couldn't take pics of the shine to show you out of respect but the place is always warm because shoppe owner heats up the chimney with more wood. This is a tiny little space but you could spend hours or up browsing through every inch and many actually do, taking their time when time in SF is worth a lot. I love the garden, the customers and the ladies who upkeep the shoppe. You will not come in and find this place boring! There is always conversations about meaning of life, spirituality, animal guides, tarot cards, astrology and palm readings. Someone will be searching through books to find their childhood treasure again or getting recycled leather bound journals for their out of town friends as a keepsake. Possibilities are endless, as endless as your openness to alternative healing and spiritual solutions. I brought some incense too (not in the pic) but it has the most gorgeous and tranquil blue that even not burning them (putting out in display immensely) enhance my spirit, my mood and my well being. I got instructions about what to do with the ashes too. Many came from out of town or just across the bay! I recommend stopping by to say "hi" to the friendly ladies or the shoppe owner, they are always up for a good chat and just so open and welcoming, I bet they get asked all sort of life questions so you won't shock them with your challenge. Bottom line, this is a cute, lovely, back shoppe filled with loads of SF histories, good times bad times, and foot prints of some unique souls, some beautiful, some odd and some stranger than old wives' tales. P.S. I will update my reading as time passes with realization of actual events. But maybe I will not, let the bygones be the bygones! Will see.

Jessica Boyer has changed my life in ways I could never have expected. This all started a little…read moreover four years when I had a personal reading from Jessica. During the session I connected with both my mother and father who had passed and questions about so many things were completely answered. I felt like I finally understood my family history and how it has impacted my life and a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders. The personality of my loved ones totally came through and the number of specific details that no one could possibly know, confirmed for me that the experience was real in every way. Flash forward to this year. I looked up Jessica's website to see if she was still around but found that she was no longer doing personal readings but instead teaching workshops- Embracing your Intuition. Not exactly knowing what that meant, I contacted her and was able to jump into a group that had just started. The Embracing Intuition workshops are incredibly intense yet comforting and therapeutic at the same time. After doing guided exercises in tapping into your psychic intuitive abilities, you are asked to jump right in and read for others in the group. Jessica holds the space in such a loving and open way that you feel safe and accepted at all times. Jessica models vulnerability and love the entire time and shares her own intuitive hits alongside your fellow participants. Honestly, tapping into my intuitive sense was scary, exhilarating, and mind blowing. I was able to know things about other people in the group that I never knew possible and the other participants were able to tell me things that were also impossible for them to know. Most importantly, I learned how to contact my own spirit guides and develop and personal relationship with them, which I have continued to do well after the workshops were over. If you are ready to tap into your intuitive self and develop a relationship with beings on a higher dimensional level, consider taking a workshop with Jessica. It will change you in deep ways and show you more than just how to read intuitively for others, it will teach you to trust yourself- one of the hardest things to do in life.

Jessica has a gift and my session with her was nothing short of amazing…read more I was searching for peace of mind during a time of grief and devastation having lost both my parents (different times but the most recent being my mom in 2020). I was sad, upset, lonely, confused, everything all at once. I did extensive research and came apon Jessica. Scheduling was simple and I was willing to wait a few months for my session because I believed it would be worth it. 100 percent it was. Jessica is very calming, and kind. She made me feel safe and comfortable (even on zoom). There is no doubt in my mind that she was able to reach my parents. The details in my reading were spot on. She brought up things that I only shared with my husband and therapist. I was taken back. I could hear and feel my parents come through. It was truly an experience I will never forget. Jessica helped things connect for me. I found a sense of peace that I was missing. I highly recommend meeting Jessica. You will not regret it. She is amazing. The wait will be worth every bit! Thank you, Jessica!

When I had my reading with Rebecca I was in a tough place mentally. I had reached the point where I was feeling stagnant, purposeless, and checked out -- not exactly easy topics to talk about with someone you've just met. But Rebecca made it incredibly easy. She is warm, kind, empathetic, and trustworthy. She went through my birth chart and pointed out all the skills/talents I was born with, as well as highlighted how I'd been going through an astrologically challenging time. I left my session feeling completely validated and excited about my future. This woman KNOWS her stuff and knows how to deliver it in a way that's empowering and understandable. I loved her reading so much I gifted one to a close friend who I know will benefit from seeing her. If you're on the fence about whether you should see an astrologer or who you should see, look no further.
