Gypsy Moon is originally from Minneapolis Minnesota. It is where she first experienced astral projection at the age of two. At the age of five, Gypsy came in contact with her first solid apparitions while living in Colorado Springs, Colorado. By the time she was eight, she was living on a haunted farm in western Wisconsin.

There were many different spirits there, all of them "good spirits" and Gypsy enjoyed interacting with them. She has always felt it was the spirits gift to her to be able to see and hear them, rather than any gift of her own. Gypsy found herself giving readings in everyday conversations as many people would come to her seeking spiritual understanding and advice..

It was experiences like these that led Gypsy Moon down a path of enlightenment she is still on today. Gypsy has spent her life studying all things metaphysical with a belief in continuous growth. This has allowed her to also mentor others to understand and use their own psychic abilities.

Today, as a Spirit Medium and Paranormal Investigator, Gypsy Moon participates in paranormal events nationwide as a guest speaker and lead investigator. She also has been interviewed on numerous radio shows and is available for private readings.

Gypsy Moon welcomes every opportunity to communicate with the spirit realm. She does so with the intention of bringing hope, peace and understanding to all who are interested.
