Episode 32: Intentional Awakening Podcast: The Channel Kryon on Awakening
Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is "Balance,” find a point of equilibrium amidst change. Kryon talks about magnetic shifts, geological information, etc. and posted recently about awakening. Kathy reads a quote. This is a testament to the self work done and needing to be done. When a new door opens, we tend to fear the unknown. Why not be curious? If you’re starting to awaken to a larger truth, you begin to change and develop a higher consciousness. This can bring life changes. When you learn how to manage your intuition, you may lose some of it; it’s part of your process and path. If we bring this into talking about balance, in our awakening we may separate a bit from the human. You may begin to understand. You may feel disconnected to old friends. You may feel like your blood relatives are not spiritually connected and there’s a grander truth. “It may become obvious for those who wish to look.” As you level up, you face bigger and bigger challenges.

Intentional Awakening Podcast. Episode 31: Acceptance
Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is "Acceptance,” move forward and embrace life. You have to accept & acknowledge something to change it. You can fight against it and think you’d like to change it, but there is always time for improvement. Energy is always moving so acceptance is a constant process and a choice. The question is “How?” Some tips can be to understand the differing levels of truth that can exist at the same time. You can be upset at someone and love them and both truths can exist. We all have natural biases, is there room for change or growth? Suffering comes from judgment. Are we allowing the circumstances to continue? Is what is happening for our higher good or a lesson we’re meant to learn? Sometimes things suck but those can be the most important lessons and acceptance is the first choice. #acceptance #embrace #acknowledge #truth #bias #lessons

Episode 30: Intentional Awakening Podcast: Soul Contracts replay
Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is "Gratitude,” increasing your ability to nourish the good in and around you. The soul is made up of 3 facets, love (emotions), light (intelligence), and power (control of your body/movement.) If the soul decides what to work on, it then chooses people and circumstances to fulfill those lessons and in this time, souls begin to connect with each other. Does the contract break when two connected souls divide? It depends on your perspective. Some believe it may break, others believe the soul contract cannot break and the division was a part of the contract all along included in a lesson that you are supposed to learn and endure. Once you fulfill the contract, it could be seen as breaking the contract depending on your own perception. Mutual growth is the purpose and intention, it is not considered destiny but a lesson needed to be learned. To release a soul contract, awaken within it and release anger realizing we are all here for mutual growth, this involves forgiveness. Let go, this ties back to our word of the day, practice gratitude for the growth these moments brought to you. Sometimes, no matter how negative the moment feels, maybe this is what was meant to be! We encourage you to sit with this, what was the lesson from this? Can we have compassion for this moment? #soulcontract #gratitude #nourish #love #light #power #perspective #mutualgrowth #forgiveness

Episode 29: Intentional Awakening Podcast: Ghost hunting on the Queen Mary
Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is "Adventure,” take risks and release pre-planned outcomes. There are many haunted spaces aboard the Queen Mary, Kathy went and explored and will share with us today about that experience. Throughout the course of the stay, Kathy welcomed many people through the room as everyone knows it is haunted and full of paranormal activity. In the large mirror she clearly saw a figure laying in the bed, in the closet she felt a presence standing behind her, and at one point smelt a pungent smell wafting through. After dinner, she sat to engage in the Ouija Board that she brought, and Kathy assured her husband that she would not mess with him or move anything. As the board communicated, it seemed there was a controlling spirit that Kathy was aware of communicating to her mentioning an old friend. Kathy mentions the feeling of a child-like spirit touching her face and a tall dark figure inhabiting the room. Lastly, she pulled out her pendulum out the morning of departure. As she was walking around the room, it was hanging still. The second she reached into the closet it began to circulate but became still again once removed from the closet. Terrie also has a few experiences aboard the Queen Mary. She was by the pool area which is closed to the public and known for the presence felt. She didn’t see the energy but felt it. Terrie felt incredibly clear and cognizant communication coming through. #intentionalawakening #queenmary #adventure #paranormal #presence #ouija #pendulum

Episode 27: Past Life Regression. Intentional Awakening Podcast
Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is "Commitment,” remain dependable. What you believe about the afterlife depends on what works and makes sense to you. If you believe in past life regression, you may understand this in the terms of soul evolution. For example, if life is like a job interview and in the first interview you do not get the job, in the next interview you have another chance to do the right things and get the job. Your belief in the afterlife will resonate energetically with you. We pick our lifetimes, we know what we are destined for. We only know what we need to learn to move forward. The soul understands what to take from your experiences into the next life. Have you ever gone to a new location and felt comfortable as if you knew and recognized the place? You have memories of these places that may not be your experiences. You can go back to a space, a soul encounter, a skill, etc. and whether or not you believe, the work can still be done. #pastlifereggression #intentionalawakening #commitment #afterlife #resonate #soul #lifetimes

Intentional Awakening Podcast: Episode 26: Predictions for 2026
Join Terrie and I as we combine psychic forces to pull cards and give our predictions and assessment of the year to come. Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is "Sisterhood / Brotherhood,” acknowledging the importance of reaching out with acts of kindness to all around you. Lets pull some cards to start the year with gaining information by double linking: where psychics bounce off each other. Humans emit light which can be seen as aura: this year, what colors stand out to you and how are we energetically aligning with these colors? Kathy's first cards pulled were the dancer, the eye, and the fortunate. The dancer shows us that it is human to have things do not go as planned. The eye reminds us that there is a divine plan and all is as it should be. Lastly, the servant encourages us to recognize how good life can be. These cards are saying that we are on that correct path. The emotion we feel is not the issue, it is our relationship to that emotion that can be the issue. Terrie pulls “Loud & Clear,” “free falling,” and “sunshine, lollipops, & rainbows everywhere.” We are reading from this that when you feel the clarity, take action. If you don't take action, the world will get loud to remind you to free fall into that clarity and find your sunshine and rainbows. Your direction will be clear, use your free will to follow that clarity and be more intuitive. What is that next step? Take it. Kathy now pulls a card “The Good.” That truth alone helps us let go and remember our truth and purpose, we are inherently good. Pursue the good, the good belongs to us within us. You are good. Trust and work towards the good. #2026 #intentionalawakening #sisterhood #brotherhood #doublelinking #energeticallyaligning #clarity #intuition #truth #purpose #thegood

Intentional Awakening Podcast: Episode 25: Merry Christmas1
Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is " Clarity,” reminding us to focus on intent and see the world as it is free of judgements and perceptions. What can we do to find clarity during the holidays? With the darkness in the past year, we leave that behind and leave fear and prejudice. Enlighten ourselves and thus brings light to everyone around us. Darkness, sadness, and hate cannot remain in the light. Things dim our light, but there is enough light for all. Share yourself and share your light. Spread your inner light and love, spread the light and be the light. Be generous with your light as it always triumphs darkness. Turning on the light takes action, the light is there we just have to use that potential. Ignite yourself. There are two things that have to happen, intention and energy. Reciprocate the bright energy that you feel around you. It is not important to know why something is happening, but to accept that it is happening. We do not need to know why, we may never know why. Oftentimes, we try to rationalize but it can be a waste of time and mental energy. When wonderful things happen, if we accept this we can amplify these wonderful things. Our past can encourage you to expect good things to be taken away and dwell on that rather than accept these good things. The soul is light but our human brings distraction, it is up to us to find clarity of our love and light. Our thoughts keep us stuck, take a pause and take a breath. Meditation connects you and allows you to shine that light. Lean into the calm and the stillness, take a break, replenish your light. #clarity #intentionalawakening #prejudice #enlighten #light #love #intention #soul #replenish

Episode 24 Intentional Awakening Podcast: Shadow work
Episode #24: Shadow Work: Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is "Power,” reminding us to utilize our research to the fullest and act on our own awareness creating “win-win” experiences. Shadow work has to occur to have awakening. This can be emotional work, going deep and tapping into energetic frequencies that are low vibrational, for example shame, guilt, or rage. These emotions tend to hide in the shadows. Delve into the parts of yourself that you do not want to acknowledge. It is not the emotion that is the problem, it is our relationship to that emotion. Shame, as a child, was important. As an adult there is no benefit to shame. Guilt keeps us accountable to being a good person, but shame is feeling bad about who we are rather than what happened. There are parts of our inner child that are hurt, that we shove away to protect ourselves, and we have to admit and acknowledge what we are hiding in the shadows. Embrace that aspect of yourself and be aware of where you are energetically and accept these emotions from an nonjudgmental place to address them. When you become triggered, it is not a moment to feel shame but a moment to pause and think, “What did that bring up in me that may be unresolved?” “What lesson can I learn from this?” The more shadow work done, there's less room for these triggers to have a strong effect on you. Come from a place of love and affection. #shadowwork #intentionalawakening #power #emotions #shame #guilt #innerchild #embrace #trigger

Intentional Awakening Podcast: Episode 23: Hone your Psychic Skills
Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is "Awakening,” reminding us to welcome in the new dawn. Everyone has intuition, some people use it more and practice this skill. Some people are more in tune with their inner self and remember that we are not just humans, we are souls; you can learn how to strengthen your intuition. Intuition and instinct are different, as instinct can be attached to fear while intuition comes when you are calm and at peace. One is not better than the other unless you're guiding someone else, when guiding you want to use intuition rather than instinct. How do we hone this? Information comes from our senses and we can learn what our strength is by understanding which sense we primarily use to learn. Psychicness comes from feeling. Certain visuals may mean things to you, and not to others, the way one interprets a visual may not be the same as how you may interpret it. This is why we do not read our own tarot. Validation is very important when using your psychic senses. You can use exercises with a partner to use your cognition and telepathy using cards or other physical visuals. Download information from the universe, what do you see and feel in your mind? For example, randomly turn on the radio in your car and listen to the lyrics and interpret the message, which can be more successful if you have a partner to validate this information. Play psychic games, get cards, go instinctively. Make your own psychic dictionary of what certain images, visuals, and information can mean to you! #psychic #intentionalawakening #intuition #innerself #instinct #interpret #Validation

Intentional Awakening Podcast: Episode 22: Presence
Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is "Obedience,” “follow your deepest impulse with discipline and decisiveness.” We start this episode with a quote: “The universe is putting forth maximal effort to create this moment, why would you want to change that?” This is a lesson on presence which can be one of the biggest obstacles to overcome for humans. There is a negative connotation to one’s ego but Ego is a part of the human experience and feeling present in your NOW moment; this can be a constant battle for many. Thought is the enemy of presence and awakening because we get lost in these thought storms and the stories we tell ourselves about the present and future. If you are not thinking about the past or future, where is it? It is only the NOW that is present and this moment is all we have, remove ourselves from suffering to stay present. When you allow yourself to identify with these thoughts, it can take you away from presence, change your thoughts to align with the NOW moment that you would like to be in. Do not allow our vibrations to dissipate as thought gets in the way, make sure to “and” these thoughts rather than “or.” The “or” can take us away from the present moment. Meditation helps hone in on presence. Ask those unanswerable questions to keep you on track at that moment. “What did your face look like before your parents were born?” These questions bypass the critical factor to keep your mind from wandering and staying in that present moment. #presence #intentionalawakening #obedience #discipline #ego #NOWmoment #thought #align #vibrations #meditation

Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is "Honesty,” share your authenticity with those around you. “Pick up After Yourself” is the first card pulled, reminding us that we have the power and opportunity to change what we do not like in our lives, deal with our own issues. Take action, it is our personal responsibility to keep our side of the street clean. Use your humanity. The second card pulled is "original blessings,” remember where we came from and who we are, which is a being of light. The soul uses the human as a vehicle to evolve itself. We are not our emotions, thoughts, and feelings. We have them. How are we using our human? #honesty #intentionalawakening #authenticity #action #responsibility #humanity #blessings

Intentional Awakening Podcast: Episode 20: Meditation
Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is "Vision” telling us to see the bigger picture and shape the future we desire. We tend to have misconceptions about meditating and feel that we suck at it because we have intrusive thoughts. You do not have to blank out your brain. Meditation is being with your thoughts and then watching them go. Be gentle with yourself as it is a meditation practice. Think of it similar to baggage claim in an airport, you can watch the baggage go by and choose your luggage to pick up, we don’t need to pick it all up. We have moments of overthinking, use the body because we cannot shut off our brain. Place your attention where you would like your focus to go. Think, sense, and feel to become aware of what you are focusing on. Why is it important to meditate? We have the human and the soul, meditation allows you to separate the two and allow your soul to communicate with your human. Meditation is different for everyone, it does not need to be formal. The strictness is in the consistency of meditating daily, not how you meditate. What we are fighting is your perception of it, do not believe that you can’t just because it doesn't look like how you were taught to think it should look. #mediation #intentionalawakening #vision #attention #focus #soul #consistency #perception

Episode #19: Purpose: Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is "Celebration,” rejoice, have fun, and enjoy the party. Our purpose is to awaken. Day to day, our purpose is what is right in front of us moment to moment. Many people get entangled in their purpose having to reflect their income, as this gives us meaning. Instead, our purpose is about giving your gift away; we all have a gift and our purpose is to share this with others and energetically influence them. There is a difference between purpose and calling, there may not be one specific path we are meant to be on. Purpose could be about how we live out our values, what we value is a great way to begin to find your purpose. Values help dictate the decisions you make and guide you forward. Release judgement to awaken. Our calling is a collection of values that builds our calling and guides you towards your purpose. #purpose #intentionalawakening #celebration #awaken #gift #meaning #calling #values

Intentional Awakening Podcast: Episode 18: This crazy world we live in.
Today’s episode touches on the current unrest more and more people are feeling. We are feeling a sense of dis-ease with what is going on in the world and there may be an energetic shift associated. It seems that there is a renaissance of getting closer to your higher power whether it is God, the universe, or spiritual guides and that is an awakening. Yes, we have advanced technologically but have we advanced spiritually? It can be tough and oftentimes crisis is used to realign us back onto our path. Suffering can lead us to awakening. It starts with the individual and radiates out. Please turn off the TV, this can cause division and more suffering as frustration builds up inside. If you are sensitive you will feel it in your body. The forces at be know how to pray on people with lower vibrational frequencies. If the current events are causing you tension, turn off the news. We know enough of what's going on, we do not need to allow these things to consume us. Everything is unfolding the way it is supposed to and happening for a good reason. There's a delicate dance when being present in this “now” moment and feeling safe. If we are being called through a crisis, we are being pushed forward to think of our contribution. How do we think, behave, and act to become closer to divine in this process? #unrest #energeticshift #higherpower #spiritualguides #awakening #vibrationalfrequency #crisis

Intentional Awakening Podcast: Episode 17: Sitting with Adyashanti
Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is "Understanding” reminding us to act with sincerity and empathy. Kathy sat with Adya up in NorCal and wanted to share. We may worry that in awakening we may not be able to be funny and lose our humanness, or our relationships with others may change due to our growth. We do not have to change who we are to prove that we are awake, we are all just humans and can continue to be just a better version of ourselves. This growth and journey can look differently for everyone. Sit in contemplation with your questions, feel the unified state and embody our spiritual instinct. The resources needed are within ourselves. Once we find the answers we are looking for we may realize we are the same human we were yesterday. When we have a profound experience, rather than attempting to explain it, have a personal connection with that experience. “Sit down, shut up and just be,” stop waiting for the answers, they are in you. When we seek something, that inherently means we are looking somewhere outside of ourselves, it is here in you. We cannot resonate with something until we have a personal experience with it to then embody these experiences. Not everyone is ready for these answers so there may be work to be done for you to get to this place of embodiment. There is always a way to get to the same result no matter the path taken. “Scary places tend to have the most light, activism must be embodied: Love, Serve, and Remember.” #understanding #intentionalawakening #humanness #contemplation #justbe #resonate #embodiment

Episode 16: To Awaken or Not to Awaken
Todays angel card of the day is “Forgiveness” reminding us to “let go of resentments” and “reduce your investment in staying hurt or angry.” Live in a way of being at peace with Human Nature. There are people who are truly on the path and we find teachers who share wisdom and then we continue on the path. There are also some who go from self help to self help and connect to teachers to surround themselves with enlightened people doing the work to almost leach from them rather than actually do the work themselves. These people are not looking to take accountability although spirituality is the follow through of action not just learning the information. Aha moments don’t lead to an aha life. Some deeply want transformation but can’t take the accountability to have integrity. Give yourself permission to stop absorbing your surroundings and remove yourself and not become entangled with the negativity. Come from a compassionate place realizing they are projecting their struggle AND it’s okay that we are not the one responsible of that struggle. Spirituality is to do your best to, no matter where you are in your path, come from compassion, kindness, and generosity. It takes awareness. Be patient with others and bring your best self whenever you can. It’s okay to have emotions but work on your relationship to that emotion. #intentionalawakening #forgiveness #awaken #enlightened #accountability #compassion #patience

Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is "commitment” to stay on your path and be dependable and engaged. Sometimes we’ll speak on things that cause others an adverse reaction, how do we speak to people with different belief systems? Something important to keep in mind is that we are not the same person we used to be using internal work, not everyone is at the same place you are. Have some sympathy and empathy for where they are coming from and try to understand and accept where they are in their process. Stray from an “us” vs. “them” mentality, in that moment they may not fully get it, but down the line they may come to understand. You do not want non-believers to feel bad or wrong, in time things happen. Use simple language to be inviting and ask if they have any questions along the way to encourage dialog. If someone does not want to get it, do not waste that time and energy to convince them. Remain productive, pick your battles carefully for your own mental, emotional, and spiritual health. #intentionalawakening #nonbelievers #commitment #beliefsystems #empathy #productive

Episode 14 Intentional Awakening Podcast: A reading
Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is "Exploration” reminding us to investigate, cultivate, and go beyond the known. Oracle cards tend to give guidance and direction. The first card drawn is a Swan signifying Grace. This past week’s energy has felt like a phoenix rising from the ashes and now we are reminded to integrate from what happened to realize that the past brings you to where you are now. Take that time to slow down and give yourself the space to embrace. Allow your nervous system time to recalibrate. The world has become a place full of fear and anger, the swan can also be a reminder to look around and appreciate the little things. Lift our vibrations and take action coming from a place of presence and grace. The second card pulled is a Koala Bear showing us empathy and to speak less while listening more. Push through the programmed fear by listening to what others have to say to come from a place of understanding rather than survival mode. Find the presence and awareness of listening deeply. We are not the most important in the room, we have one mouth and two ears. #intentionalawakening #reading #exploration #grace #recalibrate #empathy #listening

Intentional Awakening Podcast: Episode 13: Presence
Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is "Presence” almost like awareness and consciousness, allowing us to be here and now in this moment. The past doesn't exist and the future hasn't come yet so be present to our emotions, environment, accepting what is and what isn't. If you want to get from where you are now to a goal set, all that is in between is time and space, it is about choosing which path to get you there and being present and aware to close that gap. Having awareness and presence grants you the access to get from where you are to where you are looking to be. The here and now is all we have, most of our suffering comes from wanting to be somewhere else therefore allowing and accepting what IS is the key. Stay in that “now” moment we get to choose whether we are allowing these negative emotions to make us miserable or not. We have an abundance of information and knowledge, choose what you resonate with. What am I allowing myself to be present to? How do we cultivate presence? Sit in that stillness, meditate, use breath work, and acknowledge where we are in this moment using your senses. #Presence #intentionalawakening #consciousness #awareness #acceptance #abundance #resonate

Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is "Celebration" reminding us to rejoice, have fun, and enjoy the party. There are thoughts that sometimes pop into our heads that just feel different with almost a heaviness or importance to the thought. Our energy is then able to receive the download and match the vibrational frequency. These thoughts or downloads can also be channeling something that isn’t us but coming through us. It is not about trying to have these downloads, shift your attention away from them, get out of your own way, we want to “be” not “do.” When saying “trying” it relates to a struggle, instead of trying, start doing. In order to make room for these downloads, we need to have the energy to do so, and allow it to occur. When you have these downloads, share it with someone unjudgemental around you to allow for validation and possibly help someone, there's a reason the download occurred. #downloads #intentionalawakening #celebration #vibrationalfrequency #validation

Intentional Awakening Podcast: Episode 11: Forgiveness
Episode #11: Forgiveness: Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is "Forgiveness" with the description “reduce your investment in staying angry or hurt. To forgive is to live in a world that is at peace with human nature.” This card inspired today's episode topic. Although it can feel like you do not want to forgive or that this is allowing the behavior to happen, forgiveness is one of the strongest ways to move forward and doing so isn’t always for the other person, but for yourself. “Forgiveness is not a weakness but an act of self-compassion.” Let go of the attachment, it may take time to get to the place where you feel comfortable to forgive someone or yourself but it's the human that helps evolve the higher soul. Ask yourself what do I get from holding onto it? Is fear holding me back? Am I avoiding the pain of addressing it? Is it ego related? Forgiveness ties in with acceptance, what we resist persists. We need to release the negative ego of being better than them, in the right, or hurt by them. Sometimes you feel resentments towards yourself that are then projected outwards so the key is forgiving yourself and releasing the judgement of yourself. #forgiveness #intentionalawakening #moveforward #attachment #evolve #acceptance

Intentional Awakening Podcast Episode 10: Being a slave to astrology
Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is “Openness.” When talking about Mercury Retrograde all that is happening is the planet is slowing down in its rotations and energy can affect energy and sometimes this can be taken out of proportion. The planet of Mercury is about communication and interaction so the question is whether what you're experiencing is the actual reality of energy or something you are creating in your mind. Astrology is a history of patterns that have been noticed and charted and it can be pretty accurate so taking precautions is important but don’t put your life on hold or be held hostage, find a resolution. As meaning making creatures, we like to find a reason why something happened which can be a spiritual reason but sometimes life just happens and it isn't a cosmic reason. The universe could be telling you to sit back and have some patience and grace for outside factors involved. Be present and a good, kind human and lead with compassion. #astrology #intentionalawakening #openness #mercuryretrograde #communication #realityofenergy #presence #patience

Intentional Awakening Podcast: Episode 9: Time Line Jumping
Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is “Depth” with the description “Go deeper- pay attention to what is beneath the threshold of awareness.” Terrie shares that the concept of Timeline Jumping can be simplified into making choices. Once you have an intention, consistency in aligned action is the key to growth. Timeline jumping is about becoming a version of the person who has what you want to manifest by making choices. When manifesting, we can “and” or “Or” something, and “or” is about limitations while “and” is about abundance. Timeline jumping is realizing that you don’t have to limit yourself in this moment of reality but can make other choices to “become” using choices with abundance in mind rather than limitations. Kathy refers to timeline jumping as thinking of yourself in a timeline where you made the other choice and landing your consciousness in a different version of your life. It can be seen like songs on the radio are all playing at the same time although we are choosing to be on one station at a time. In our soul contracts, there's something like a list of lessons that we must learn, no matter which route we take, we will end up in situations where we learn those lessons, we still get done the things we were set out to do on this planet. The things we think we need in this lifetime manifest but in a different way due to the choices we make. Make choices, feel into those things, take action, and trust that it is going to happen. #timelinejumping #intentionalawakening #takingaction #choices #abundance #soulcontracts

Intentional Awakening Podcast: Episode 8: Spiritual Bypassing
Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is “Kindness” once again as it is always important to be kind to yourself and be kind to others. In times of awakening, enlightenment, and evolving- people tend to feel like they need to escape the human part of themselves and in these moments of connecting with our souls, we feel free and a sense of non-attachment or “bliss.” Essentially a spiritual bypass is using spirituality to avoid confronting hard truths. Kathy relates a book she is reading, “Awake,” states that it's not the emotion that is the issue, it's your emotion about the emotion. We have to acknowledge that we are spiritual beings and still human and have to face these truths and tough feelings. Usually in a spiritual bypass, one is not aware they are bypassing using toxic happiness, maybe ignoring self care, avoiding human contact and intimacy, or ignoring human responsibility. This bypassing can also cause a false sense of superiority which is not what awakening is about. Terrie shares the importance in understanding that energy is constantly moving and giving yourself the permission to allow these emotions to move through you. I feel ___ but I am not ___. Feeling emotion is feeling energy in motion. Self reflection and plugging into your humanity with awareness can be the solution to the bypass. #spiritualbypass #intentionalawakening #enlightenment #nonattachment #confronthardtruths #giveyourselfpermission

Episode 7 Intentional Awakening Podcast: Interpreting experiences
Today’s Angel Card Word of the Day is “Courage.” We all have bias and sometimes messages from the universe or symbols can be interpreted incorrectly. Terrie explains that our own human experience and primary “clair” can change our interpretation; whether it’s clairsentience (clear feeling), clairaudience (clear hearing), clairvoyance (clear seeing), clear smelling, clear tasting, or claircognizance (a sixth sense.) Not only do we interpret information, but we translate messages and symbols into our own internal lingo to resonate with the information. Kathy portrays how some people become stuck on one interpretation of something where “this must mean that.” This could be a safety mechanism internally in order to gain control which can cause one to have a rigid mindset rather than a growth mindset. The key is to be open to interpretation and open to growth, not having a fixed interpretation of symbols but to be curious. #interpretation #intentionalawakening #courage #resonate #growth #curious

Episode 6 Intentional Awakening Podcast Paradox
Join my phenomenal co host and myself as we discuss one of the most confusing things in spirituality, which is paradox. For example, if you are trying to manifest something and roadblock after roadblock are thrown up in your way, does that mean that that is not the right path for you or does that mean that you are meant to fight through? I run into situations like this all the time not only in my own life but in the lives of my clients. Join us for a fascinating and enlightening discussion.
