Natalie Hynde is a novelist, musician and wellness practitioner who brings a wide range of interests and skill sets to her work.

An explorer of esoteric and occult topics, she became a student of linguistic philosophy and consciousness-alteration in her twenties. A hedonistic lifestyle on the London club scene resulted in drug-addiction and the eventual misdiagnoses of schizophrenia. She later got involved in a 12-step recovery program in 2015 which went on to benefit her greatly.

The schizophrenia was merely a form of latent mediumship. A kundalini shift can often happen as the result of trauma or shock, and when treated with mainstream intoxicants, will cause confusion.

After she got clean, Hynde began turning her attention towards self-development practices such as yoga, tantra, TRE, meditation, ecstatic dance and magick. Yoga retreats followed, aswell as a strong interest in Gabrielle Roth’s 5 rhythms movement map.

Having begun her paranormal training at the College of Psychic studies, with a primary focus on tarot and numerology, she began work on her first novel - an extraordinary satire of the fake protest movements dominating eco-Buddhist and anarchist peace activism, by one who has been in the thick of many influential groups.

The author was adopted as ‘voice of a generation’ in the early days of the anti-fracking movement and tells a fascinating inside story of its ‘take-over’ by the Anarcho-Queer Pixies, a fictionalised version of the influencing groups that ran things at that time. Miss Hynde shares her feelings about different mind-control techniques and covert undercover practices. She takes a strong position on the loss of autonomy, imagination and personal initiative that seem to come with adherence to a movement with a strong ideological bias. The author’s bizarre and often hilarious experiences are engrossing, and the reader will identify with the dangers connected to group-think and the obedient following of dogmas. The novel concludes with the lead character’s experiences of finding his own sense of a spiritual path after decades of conformity to what are effectively cults run by indoctrinated leaders.

Hynde founded the Avalon tarot temple in 2025 where she now holds weekly circles and classes. She offers a wide range of healing modalities, including: herbs and essential oils, psychic protection work, soul retrieval, energy grounding, spells and charms, numerology, journeying with the elements, sabbats, tarot masterclass, women’s wheel of the year , candle work, sigil work and sex magick.
