Discover Your Buried Treasures
About th Map Matcher
Amy Rookstool is a lineage researcher and creator of The Inherited Map™. She carries ancestral ties to the Aztec and Inca empires, the Sephardic Jewish diaspora, European royalty, mystic traditions, and rebel histories. Her work honors both documentation and intuition, as well as fact and felt memory.
"Every family tree has buried treasure. Some call it wisdom. Some call it trauma. Some call it a calling.
I help people read the maps their ancestors left behind—across continents, generations, and spiritual lineages—so they can reclaim what was buried and bring it back into the light."
