Tillie Treadwell
In a cottage kitchen, Tillie Treadwell pours beeswax candles with crackling pine wicks and blends loose leaf teas by hand. Her extrait fragrances took over a decade to get right. Her books trace what lives in the spaces most people walk past without noticing, and her tarot work reads the cards as living conversation rather than fortune-telling.
Tillie Rose Treadwell is an American author, speaker, teacher, content creator, and paranormal experiencer whose story starts in infancy- nonhuman beings found her before words did. She runs Intermediary Arts from Lake Mary, Florida- born there, raised mostly in Ohio, and returned home as an adult- and most of her life has been spent in the place between places.. between rational inquiry and mystery, between the seen and the unseen, between what can be explained and what simply has to be lived through.
She has had personal encounters with what she fully believes to be nonhuman people.. the fae, the Glimmer Man, wild nightcrawlers, UFOs, and odd glitches in time that resist tidy explanations. Her co-authored nonfiction Weird Time: Exploring the Mysteries of Time and Space sits on the shelf next to fiction rooted in the same territory- Tales From the Rift and The Cat Knew Tarot, both drawn from real encounters reimagined as living stories. Her recurring column How I Met Your Monster, begun at Eerie Expeditions Magazine, now writes from its own desk on this site, and for Outer Limits Magazine she writes feature articles that range from haunted objects to the physics of time anomalies.
A former esoteric exorcist with the Catholic Church, she co-headed a paranormal investigation team that operated with the blessing of church leadership. Her renown as a gifted tarot interpreter, healer, and psychic has grown into working partnerships with celebrated doctors, Dr. Sue Whittaker among them, opening new paths in nutritional and medical care and helping carry proven quantum medical devices into the world.
Science has claimed a share of her as well. Researchers in neuroscience, human evolution, and genetic study have found unprecedented material in her neurodivergence, her porphyria, a newly classified brain chemistry, and an eye structure all her own- windows on the truly exotic that only a living subject could open. Her speaking and writing draw audiences into the extraordinary, from a life woven through the mundane, the miraculous, and the magiqal.
Her work now is documentation- writing down what she has seen and experienced in the place between places, because someone should, and because she was made for it.
Intermediary.. the place between places. Metaphysical knowledge, psychological insight, wellness, and the paranormal all meet here, and every candle, tea, fragrance, and written page she makes carries traces of all four.
