Who We Are

About Lost in the Astral 

We don't guess. We look hard and tell you the truth.

Who runs Lost in the Astral? Scott and Kacie Hinojosa—work at the crossing of clear sight, doctoral-level holistic study, and nationally recognized massage. Most practices pick a lane. Evidence-minded or mystical. Clinical or alternative. Analytical or intuitive.

We chose both. And that is exactly why people find us after everything else has failed.

The founders

Lost in the Astral only works because both sides of the practice are in the room.

This is not one person stretching into ten disciplines. It is a deliberate pairing: hands-on precision and research on one side, sharp reading of how people think, choose, and repeat themselves on the other.

The Founders

Scott Hinojosa

Careful study and pattern work—mood for how Scott reads what repeats (not a portrait)

Scott works where awareness, choice, and how life actually runs meet. His eye is trained in mentalism, psychology, sociology, culture, folklore, ancient cultures and religion, comparative religion, esoteric studies, divination, military tactics, game design and theory, psychic abilities, and more—years of personal study, not a weekend certificate.

He names what keeps happening in your life, your choices, and your blind spots—using mentalist craft and close attention to how people actually see and decide. Not guesswork. Not theory copied from a book. Plain seeing, methods he has stress-tested, and the kind of honesty most practitioners are afraid to offer.

He solves what others cannot because he looks where others will not.

Kacie Hinojosa

Kacie is a certified researcher, a doctoral candidate at IHS (holistic studies), and an award-winning sports and structural massage therapist. She recently won gold and two bronze medals at the Open Massage Championship (Oregon). She holds a BA in Health and Wellness and has deep study in how mind and feeling move together, plus serious academic work in herbalism. Her practice sits where the body meets the inner life, with long study in Jungian psychology and the harder edges of human behavior—shadow, manipulation, and what people hide from themselves.

She does not just treat symptoms. She reads what the body keeps doing and ties it to what is moving underneath in your mind and feelings. When you step onto her table or into her session, you can begin to notice how precision replaces guesswork.

Scott

Naming what repeats

Mentalist methods, seeing how pieces connect, and plain honesty where the usual story keeps breaking down.

Kacie

Hands-on precision

Award-winning bodywork, doctoral-level training at IHS, and a research-minded eye that reads more than the symptom.

Together

Same bar, both of us

Evidence-minded care, depth work, and no soft-selling you when the real trouble is still breathing.

Together

Where careful proof meets deep practice

Together, we bridge what most practices keep separate: doctoral-level training and a mind that spots how parts connect, alongside divination and serious esoteric work. One foot in what you can show in the real world. One foot in what the usual story leaves out.

We do not guess. We look until it is clear, then we build the work around what we see. That combination is why people find us after everything else has failed.

Based in Newport, Oregon. Built on naming what keeps showing up, respect for many sincere paths (omnist), and a refusal to sell you comfortable lies. If you are looking for someone to nod along and tell you what you want to hear, we are not the right fit. If you want the mirror held up with zero flinch, keep reading.

Bodywork and clear reading of people and situations working together
The crossover

Two disciplines. One way we work.

One side of the work reads bodies, recovery, and structure. The other reads habits, repeats, and how thinking and feeling actually move. Lost in the Astral exists where those lines stop being separate.

What We Are Not

Lost in the Astral is not a clinical or medical practice (with the exception of Kacie's licensed massage therapy). We do not provide licensed therapy, psychiatry, or medical treatment.

Our services are complementary. We work alongside licensed clinical professionals, never in place of them. Growth and evolution depend on the client's effort. We give you a clear path and an honest mirror. You do the work.

If you are in crisis, contact a licensed provider or call the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

Where this goes

If the way we work makes sense, the next step is simple.

You do not need to agree with every word on the page. You need to know whether you are ready for plain seeing, clean feedback, and work that does not hide behind a softer label.
