You’ll wander Sedona’s red rock vortexes with a local guide who blends geology talk, Native-inspired ceremonies, and honest conversation about life’s messier parts. Pause for prayers or just silence among juniper scents, then choose a private psychic reading outdoors or back at your hotel room. This tour feels less like sightseeing and more like being gently invited into something deeper.
“Sometimes the rocks will answer you before I do,” our guide said as we pulled up near Bell Rock. I remember thinking he was joking — but then we got out and there was this hush, even though cars were passing somewhere behind us. The air had that dusty mineral smell, mixed with juniper. I tried to listen for answers but mostly just heard my own heartbeat at first.
We drove in a big old Dodge van, windows down because it was warm, and stopped at two vortex sites (maybe three — I lost count after the second ceremony). Our guide — his name was Rick — talked about how the geology shapes the energy here. He pointed out plants I’d never noticed before, like some tiny cactus with yellow flowers. At one point he handed me a feather for a prayer; my hands were sweaty and I worried I’d drop it. Rick laughed and said that was fine, “the land’s used to clumsy visitors.”
The ceremonies weren’t what I expected — less formal than I thought, more like gentle pauses where we just stood still together. There was this moment during one prayer where the wind picked up all at once and everyone went quiet except for a kid giggling nearby (not part of our group). Somehow that made it feel realer. Later we sat on a flat rock and Rick answered questions about Sedona’s history, plus some bigger stuff about balance in life. Not sure if it changed me but it definitely made me pause.
I did the optional psychic reading outside back at my hotel — under a tree because Rick said it felt right. He told me things that made sense and some things that didn’t (yet). The sun started setting while we talked; everything looked kind of gold and soft-edged. After he left, I just sat there for a while listening to cicadas start up. Still think about that feeling sometimes when life gets noisy again.
