Our Story • Since 2014

A sacred work that learned how to grow with life.

Spirit of Tiphereth began as a shared vision between Yaffah and Orach. What started as spiritual practice and service grew into a metaphysical store, mystic center, teaching space, festival presence, and community home. Today, the form is different, but the heart of the work remains.

The People Behind the Work

Yaffah & Orach

Partners in life and in the long evolution of Spirit of Tiphereth.

Yaffah

Guidance, reflection & sacred practice

Yaffah’s work centers on intuitive guidance, tarot, psychic reading, energy work, spiritual reflection, teaching, and the lived experience of sacred practice. Her path has been shaped through years of study, service, ceremony, community work, and personal transformation.

Her approach is not about telling someone what they must believe or promising a fixed future. It is about creating space for insight, possibility, discernment, and a deeper relationship with one’s own inner wisdom.

Grounding, ceremony & community

Orach has been part of Spirit of Tiphereth from its beginning, helping shape the practical and ceremonial life of the center. His presence has included community events, sacred fire, spiritual gatherings, and the steady work required to turn an idea into a place people could actually enter and experience.

Together, Yaffah and Orach built Spirit of Tiphereth as a shared life-work rather than a separate brand. The center has always reflected both spiritual commitment and the realities of family, partnership, work, change, and growth.

The Journey

From an idea to a storefront, and beyond.

Spirit of Tiphereth has never stayed in only one form.

The beginning

Spirit of Tiphereth began as Yaffah and Orach’s shared spiritual business and community vision. The earliest years were rooted in service, readings, spiritual goods, learning, and building relationships with people who were looking for a different kind of sacred space.

A home near downtown Columbus

The work grew into a physical storefront near downtown Columbus, Ohio. The shop became more than retail shelves. It was a mystic center where people could browse, ask questions, receive readings, attend gatherings, discover new practices, and simply spend time in a space that welcomed spiritual exploration.

Study, ceremony & deeper practice

As the center grew, so did the people behind it. Spiritual study, ceremony, initiation, ritual, healing, teaching, and personal practice continued to deepen. The work of Spirit of Tiphereth was never limited to what happened behind a counter. It was lived, practiced, questioned, and carried into the community.

Community

Festivals, markets & gathering spaces

Spirit of Tiphereth also traveled beyond the storefront through festivals, wellness events, markets, classes, online discussions, and community gatherings. Those experiences introduced the center to people who would continue reaching out for guidance years later.

Today

A quieter form. The same heart.

As Yaffah and Orach’s family grew, their time and priorities naturally changed. Spirit of Tiphereth became less centered on maintaining a storefront and constant event schedule, and more focused on intentional private sessions, writing, spiritual education, select gatherings, and responding to the people who still seek their guidance.

The evolution was not an ending. It was a return to what mattered most.

What We Believe About the Work

Spirituality should be able to live beside ordinary life.

We do not believe spiritual practice requires someone to escape being human. Family, work, love, uncertainty, endings, joy, exhaustion, change, and responsibility are not interruptions to the path. They are part of it.

Our role is to offer perspective, sacred reflection, and tools for discernment. We respect the fluid nature of the future and the autonomy of every person who comes to us. A reading or healing session may illuminate possibilities, patterns, and choices, but your life remains your own.

That philosophy is also why Spirit of Tiphereth has been allowed to change. A practice can evolve and still remain true to its center.

At the Center

What we try to bring into every encounter.

01

Respect

Your spiritual path belongs to you. Our work is offered without demanding that you surrender your own judgment.

02

Discernment

Insight is most useful when it helps you see more clearly, ask better questions, and make your own informed choices.

03

Practice

Spirituality is more than an aesthetic. It is something lived through reflection, ritual, study, relationship, service, and change.

04

Humanity

The sacred does not require perfection. We bring the work into real lives, real families, and real seasons of becoming.
