Awards

With more than three decades of experience behind her work, Bernath has created a business that brings together intuitive guidance, tarot, mediumship, spiritual coaching, Reiki, energy healing, relationship guidance, manifestation work, customized spellwork, spiritual education, and metaphysical products. Each part of Mystic Moon reflects a central philosophy: spiritual guidance should be personal, compassionate, honest, and focused on helping people reconnect with their own inner strength.

Turning Intuition Into Impact

Mystic Moon is more than a business for Bernath. It represents a calling that has developed throughout much of her life.

Bernath says her spiritual journey began during childhood following a near death experience at four years old. She believes that experience awakened abilities that allowed her to communicate with spirits and connect with spiritual guides. Over the years, she continued developing her intuitive abilities while pursuing training and certifications that became part of the foundation for Mystic Moon.

Today, Bernath describes herself as an intuitive, Reiki Master, Certified Tarot Card Master, Certified Spiritual Life Coach, Certified Spellcaster, author, teacher, advocate, and entrepreneur. She says she holds 11 certifications related to the different areas of her work.

That combination of long term experience, continuing education, diverse spiritual practices, and a highly personal approach was an important consideration in Evergreen Awards' recognition of Mystic Moon.

Creating a Personalized Spiritual Experience

One quality that distinguishes Mystic Moon is Bernath's refusal to treat every client or situation the same way. Spiritual work and customized spellwork are approached case by case, allowing sessions to reflect the circumstances, concerns, and goals of the individual.

A conversation might begin with a question about love, relationships, career, or a difficult transition, but Bernath's approach can explore broader emotional patterns, spiritual concerns, energetic blockages, confidence, and personal growth.

“I want people to leave my space feeling stronger, clearer and more connected to their true selves,” Bernath says. “Sometimes people come to me when they feel completely lost. My role is to help them see what they may not be able to see in that moment.”

For Evergreen Awards, this commitment to personalization stood out as an important element of the Mystic Moon experience.

Honesty Without False Hope

Trustworthiness and authenticity were also central considerations in the award selection. Bernath is clear about what clients can expect when working with her. She does not believe spiritual guidance should revolve around simply telling someone what they want to hear.

Her philosophy instead centers on being direct about what she perceives while remaining compassionate toward the person receiving the guidance. She wants clients to feel as though they can have a genuine conversation with someone who will listen without sacrificing honesty.

“In spiritual work, people are often sharing things they don't feel comfortable telling everyone,” Bernath explains. “I want them to know they are being heard, respected and that their situation truly matters.”

It is an approach that combines straightforward communication with the personal warmth Bernath considers essential when discussing sensitive subjects.

Helping People Reclaim Their Power

Relationship guidance and emotional empowerment have become significant parts of the Mystic Moon identity. Bernath works with people navigating heartbreak, unhealthy relationship patterns, major life transitions, emotional pain, trauma, spiritual awakening, and questions about their future.

Clients have referred to her as the Relationship Specialist, reflecting the prominent role relationship guidance plays within her practice.

Bernath's objective, however, is not to make people dependent on readings whenever they face a decision. She sees spiritual guidance as one potential tool for helping someone reconnect with their own intuition, confidence, and personal agency.

“So many people have forgotten how powerful they are,” Bernath says. “My work is about reminding them.”

Her philosophy is further captured in a message at the heart of her work: “Healing is not a destination, it's a journey back to yourself.”

A Broad Approach to Mystical and Spiritual Wellness

The scope of Mystic Moon's services was another factor considered by Evergreen Awards. The business extends beyond traditional tarot readings to encompass multiple areas of spiritual wellness and metaphysical practice.

Clients can explore intuitive and tarot readings, mediumship, Reiki, energy healing, aura and chakra cleansing, spiritual life coaching, relationship guidance, manifestation work, customized spellwork, and other personalized spiritual services.

Mystic Moon has also expanded into metaphysical products and rituals. Its offerings include items such as spell jars, candles, oils, crystals, cleansing products, manifestation tools, and other specialty spiritual products.

This breadth allows Mystic Moon to function as more than a reading service. It has developed into a wider spiritual brand encompassing personal guidance, healing practices, education, ritual work, and metaphysical products.

From Practitioner to Spiritual Educator

Education has become another dimension of Bernath's work. In addition to providing services directly to clients, she teaches subjects connected to witchcraft, manifestation, confidence, spirituality, and personal development.

This educational component reflects a recurring theme throughout Mystic Moon: helping people become active participants in their own spiritual journeys.

Instead of positioning spiritual knowledge as something accessible only through a practitioner, Bernath seeks to give people opportunities to learn, explore practices, understand themselves more deeply, and develop greater confidence.

The Woman Behind the Business

Evergreen Awards also considered the personal story behind Mystic Moon. Bernath is not only a spiritual practitioner and entrepreneur. She is a single mother who has built her company while raising her son and navigating the responsibilities of family life.

She is also a survivor of domestic violence and identifies her advocacy for survivors as an important part of who she is. Her personal experiences have influenced her focus on resilience, relationships, emotional healing, confidence, and transformation.

Building Mystic Moon has therefore been about more than developing a company. For Bernath, entrepreneurship, motherhood, spirituality, perseverance, and personal transformation have become interconnected parts of the same journey.

That real life perspective influences how she relates to clients facing difficult circumstances. Behind the tarot cards, crystals, candles, and spiritual practices is someone who understands that transformation can require persistence, difficult choices, and the willingness to begin again.

Expanding Mystic Moon Beyond Traditional Sessions

Mystic Moon continues to expand its reach beyond conventional in person spiritual services. Bernath works remotely, participates in events, develops educational opportunities, and has expanded the brand through the Mystical Moon Shop.

Accessibility is also part of the business model. Mystic Moon offers free consultations and, for qualifying clients, payment installments or payment plans. These options reflect Bernath's effort to make initial conversations and certain services more approachable for people exploring whether Mystic Moon is right for their needs.

The growing business combines traditional spiritual practices with the accessibility of a modern digital brand, allowing Bernath to connect with people beyond the immediate Illinois community.
