Meet Aspen Bentley-Arora

Wounded Healer. Veteran. Creator.

Aspen grew up in the middle of nowhere in the mountains mostly by herself, the trees, the faeries, and her yellow labrador retriever Snowshoe. In her Sacred Forest, she was deeply connected to nature, its magic, and to Spirit. She joined the Navy when she was 17 as an enlisted sailor, commissioned from the United States Naval Academy in 2019 as a naval aviator with a B.S. in Operations Research which she describes as Applied Math for Humans.

In 2022 she was medically evacuated from the Middle East to San Diego where she began her radical healing journey. The spiritual wellness community welcomed her with open arms as she reawakened her spirituality and Celtic Druid roots. Having her Mala always with her allowed her to move through the pain and darkness by keeping her grounded with a physical tool, knowing the essence of the anatomy of the mala, and healing powers of crystals. As she regained her strength, she was inspired to share her tools and magic with the world leading her to create Aspen Arora - Manifest Your Aura merging her math and her mystic passions together.

An academic, a warrior, a world traveler, and an intuitive, Aspen can help you choose the light by helping you see your own.

Your Story is Welcome Here

Just like the sacred lotus flower (symbolized by the tassel of the mala) is born from the swampy muck yet becomes this beautiful flower, we humans who experience Trauma, grief, and tremendous pain can achieve enlightenment. Aspen has the unique ability to truly hear and see someone at their depth, no matter how dark, and create a sacred container for them to see their own light. She is not there to fix it, but to hold space for you to be real and raw and come away with the experience with a physical tool to move you through this next chapter of your life.
