Send us Fan MailIn this episode, Maya Tiwari reflects on a recent journey through South India, using the experience to discuss humanity's shift away from a restrictive "3D Matrix" toward a higher "5D frequency." She describes a massive cosmic upgrade to the human operating system, facilitated by galactic forces, which allows humanity to shed dualistic thinking, reclaim its sacred design, and step into a unified, enlightened state of consciousness.Key Talking Points & Themes1. Breaking Free from the Matrix and DualismThe "Matrix Weave": Tiwari describes the current societal system as an iron-clad matrix of darkness, rules, and divisionism that keeps the human mind ensnared.The Illusion of Separation: She opens up about her own recent internal struggles, realizing how dualistic thinking ("us vs. them") and the hidden ego can stunt our natural creative gifts, causing disease, decline, and despair.Surviving on "Smithereens": Despite these distortions, humanity has miraculously retained its sanity and created beauty, art, and joy from mere fragments of our original sacred design.2. Cosmic Recalibration via the Central SunSolar Transmissions: The Central Sun is rapidly increasing its solar output, sending heightened energetic frequencies, electromagnetic patterns, and adaptive radiation to Earth.Nervous System Upgrade: This influx of energy is actively altering human biology and emotion, forcing the nervous system to recalibrate, the heart portal to open, and the mind to unlearn false information.3. The Galactic Alliance and the 5D Operating SystemA Universal Effort: Highly advanced, enlightened universal forces—including the Galactic Federation of Light, Arcturians, Pleiadians, Andromedians, Sirians, and Lymans—have aligned to orchestrate this transition.Carbon to Light: At great peril to themselves, these forces are delivering a tech-vibrational upgrade to humanity's internal operating system, transitioning humans from carbon-based matrix prisoners to liberated, 5D Light Beings.4. Reclaiming the Role of the "Sorcerer"Tiwari urges individuals to move beyond being mere scholars of life and instead become sorcerers and magicians.For the first time in 26,000 years, humans are "frequency-armed" and capable of consciously weaving their own magical tapestries of grace, beauty, and compassion.Action Items & Practices for AscensionTiwari notes that this spiritual birthing process is "messy and gory," requiring deep commitment rather than tedium. To successfully anchor this new luminous operating system, she recommends the following daily practices:Vacuum the Mind: Actively clear away 3D mental clutter and detritus.The Violet Flame: Visualize a violet flame cleansing the container of the mind.Mindful Breathing: Maintain conscious awareness of your breath throughout the day.Share Vulnerability: Reach out to those who are lost and share personal struggles and clearing methods to help them feel less isolated.Simplify Meals: Align dietary choices with high-frequency light by practicing compassion and abstaining from eating animals.Contemplate and Bow: Create dedicated daily space for meditation, contemplation, and honoring the Divine Light.Final Takeaway: “We are the magician, the magic and the magical tapestry all woven into the One... Let us invite and embody this higher frequency and together strive to be the light to those struggling to find their way in darkness.”Support the showMay Peace Be Your Journey:Maya's approach transcends modern feminism by advocating for a holistic restoration of balance, moving beyond the fight for basic rights to reclaiming the innate power of the divine feminine, which includes procreation, forgiveness, nourishment, and cosmic creativity. She stresses the importance of kindness, inner stillness, and compassionate self-  tools for healing individuals and society. www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.comMothermaya@gmail.comGet Maya's New Book: I Am  Shakti:https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/o-books/our-books/I-am-shaktiAmazon.comBookshop.org

The sermon uses the Artemis II space mission as a springboard to reflect on humanity's smallness in the vastness of creation, drawing from Isaiah 40 to emphasize God's infinite majesty and sovereignty over all things. It contrasts human achievement with divine power, reminding listeners that despite our technological progress, we are but 'grasshoppers' before the Creator who sustains the universe by His wisdom and design. The message underscores that the universe was not formed by chance but by a loving, intentional God who made Earth uniquely for life and who deeply loves humanity, as revealed in the gift of His Son. This profound truth—our insignificance yet immense value in God's eyes—leads to a call for repentance and faith, inviting listeners to embrace the redemptive love of Christ and find eternal purpose in Him.

“In the Gaura-ganoddesha-dipika (115) it is said that the two brothers Jagai and Madhai were formerly the doorkeepers named Jaya and Vijaya, who later became Hiranyaksha and Hiranyakashipu. Jagai and Madhai were born in respectable brahmana families, but they adopted the professions of thieves and rogues and thus became implicated in all kinds of undesirable activities, especially woman-hunting, intoxication and gambling. Later, by the grace of Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu and Shri Nityananda Prabhu, they were initiated, and they got the chance to chant the Hare Krishna maha-mantra.” (Shrila Prabhupada, Chaitanya Charitamrita, Adi 10.1.20 Purport)

Today's readings.. (Numbers 32), (Proverbs 23), (John 5)  Today's 5th chapter of John includes the words of Jesus to the religious leaders who were jealous of his popularity:  these men were not of the same calibre as Nicodemus who came to Jesus by night.   Jesus tells them, “You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life” [v.39] Their motive in searching God's word was self-centred, they would gain prestige in the eyes of others – and – they took it for granted – prestige in the eyes of God.   In contrast Jesus said, “I do not receive glory from people” [v.41]  He then said, “I know that you do not have the love of God within you.”   They had too much self-love!    We need to meditate carefully on Jesus' words – what is it to love God – as distinct from knowing he exists and reading about him in his word?      Love arises from a relationship; Jesus asks them, “How can you believe, when you receive glory from one another and do not seek the glory that comes from the only God?” [v.44]  Glory?  Another word would be praise – patting one another on the back over achievements – this is constantly happening in sports.  But God does not pat us on the back!  Some words Paul addressed to the Romans have application, “ … a Jew is one inwardly, and circumcision is a matter of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the letter.  His praise is not from man, but from God.” [2 v.29]        The jealous Jewish leaders condemned Jesus for healing on the Sabbath and “even calling God his own Father.” [v.18]  Jesus had said, “the Son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing” [v.19] He tells them, “His voice you have never heard, his form you have never seen, and you do not have his word abiding in you.” [v.38]       God's word has to come ‘alive' in the minds of those who read it.   The result will be an overwhelming sense of humility – greatly beyond human comprehension.  It includes an awed contemplation from the depth of our hearts – what the Creator of all things must be like     When his word really abides in a human heart it lays the foundation for a true and wonderful relationship with God.  The end result is an even more awesome contemplation – for the Master said, initially to his disciples, – “If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.”  But totally committed disciples know what to ask for! Contemplate what Jesus asked for!  When we come to ch. 17 v.20 we will read, “I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word …”   And the result of that belief?  Read what Jesus goes on to say.

Read Online“A man had two sons, and the younger son said to his father, ‘Father, give me the share of your estate that should come to me.' So the father divided the property between them. After a few days, the younger son collected all his belongings and set off to a distant country where he squandered his inheritance on a life of dissipation. Luke 15:11–13Why did the father in this parable give his wayward son his inheritance? Very few parents would do such a thing. Essentially, the son treated his father as if he were dead. He showed no interest in remaining part of the family, nor did he care about his father's potential need for him in old age. The son's only desire was to take the money, leave for a distant land, and live a sinful life, severing his relationship with his father. So why did the father agree to the son's premature demand for his inheritance?The father's extreme generosity represents God's deep respect for our free will. This parable was addressed to the scribes and Pharisees, who constantly sought to manipulate and intimidate God's people into submission. But God doesn't work that way. He allows us the freedom to sin because, without that freedom, we would be unable to love Him authentically.The symbolism in this parable is clear: the son represents all who reject God, treat Him as though He were dead, abuse the natural and worldly gifts they've been given, and stray deeply into sin—symbolized by the “distant country.” When God's children reject Him and use their free will to sin, He permits them to experience the consequences of their choices. They soon discover that a life of sin away from Him quickly turns chaotic. While sin might provide temporary satisfaction, it inevitably leads to spiritual hunger and destitution.It was the responsibility of the religious leaders to treat God's people with the same respect that the father in this story showed his son. This remains the responsibility of every parent, Church leader, and person in authority today. First and foremost, we must respect the free will of others. Authentic conversion and worship cannot come from intimidation or manipulation. Yet, the scribes and Pharisees, through their self-righteousness and condescension, interfered with this essential quality of faith and worship.Even worse was their attitude toward those who had gone astray. They were indignant that Jesus welcomed tax collectors and sinners. But that was precisely why He came—to invite sinners to repentance. And repent they did. The scribes and Pharisees, however, were too self-absorbed to even consider extending forgiveness to those they deemed unworthy.When someone you love sins against you, how do you respond? Do you allow the one you love the freedom to make choices, continuing to love that person even in his or her rejection of you? The scribes and Pharisees couldn't stomach such mercy. But to God, it is a profound act of respect for human freedom, allowing each person to experience the consequences of his or her decisions. And when a sinner begins to suffer those consequences, do you think to yourself, “I told you so”? Or does your heart fill with compassion, making it easy for the sinner to return to God and to you?Reflect today on your attitude toward sinners. We are all sinners, and none of us has the right to judge, intimidate, or condemn others. Mercy—abundant mercy—is essential if we are to become like the father of the prodigal son. Only mercy that fully respects others, longs for their conversion, and forgives even before being asked can effectively change hearts. Contemplate the heart of our loving Father in Heaven and strive to imitate His holy virtues. Most merciful God, You have given me the freedom to love You or reject You, to obey Your perfect Law or follow my own will. When I sin, help me endure the consequences, so that in my humiliation, I may recall Your abundant mercy and turn back to You with all my heart. Grant me, too, a heart like Yours for every sinner, that I may be a beacon of Your care for them.

In this podcast we bring you ​​how to develop a virtuous character from the philosophy of Aristotle. His philosophy is often referenced as Aristotelianism. Aristotle defined virtues as dispositions to choose good actions and passions, informed by moral knowledge of several sorts. For Aristotle, virtues can be intellectual or moral, the intellectual ones are learned by instruction or education, the moral ones are developed by habits. Performing virtuous acts can be motivated by having a practical purpose or by the desire to act in a virtuous way or by both. In this video, we will explore what one might need to develop virtuous character in accordance with Aristotle's Virtue Ethics Theory. The three ways to develop your character are - 01. Adopt a Virtuous Mindset02. Practice Practical Wisdom 03. Contemplate and ReflectI hope you enjoyed listening to this podcast and hope these three ways to develop your character from the philosophy of Aristotle will add value to your life. Aristotle is a Promethean figure in the history of the world, who lived between 384–322 BC, He is considered "the father” of logic, biology, political science, zoology, embryology, of natural law, scientific method, rhetoric, psychology, realism and even of meteorology. He was first a student of Plato, then, when Plato retired, he left the Academia which Plato founded, and he became the tutor of Alexander The Great, and the two other future kings: Ptolemy and Cassander. He established a library in the Lyceum which helped him to produce many of his hundreds of books on papyrus scrolls. Unfortunately, only a third of his magnificent work has survived. For example, the  treatises “Physics”, “Metaphysics”, “Nicomachean Ethics”, “Politics”, “On the Soul” and “Poetics”, have influenced more than two millennia of scientists and theologians alike, both fascinated by his ideas.

Families with disabled students often face extra out-of-pocket costs—costs they wouldn't have if their child weren't disabled—to secure the same education other students receive for free, yet tax relief for those expenses is limited and unclear. Garret Hoff, J.D., argues that Internal Revenue Code Section 213 and its interpretations reflect a time when disabled people were not viewed as worth public money to educate, leaving families with arbitrary distinctions under the medical expense deduction. Hoff recommends the IRS revise Treasury Regulation 1.213-1(e)(1)(v)(a) to recognize a broader reading of Section 213, and he urges Congress to amend Section 529A, created by the ABLE Act, to lift contribution limits and make contributions tax deductible so families can fund qualified disability expenses through ABLE accounts. Hoff adds that lasting access and justice require cultural change, not only tax revisions.

This week, we share a "Space for God" devotional offered by Drew Masterson (Center for Christian Study) back in 2022. He guides us into a deep insight shared by many artists, neuroscientists, and the Apostle Paul: that the things we pay attention to profoundly shape our lives. I invite us to take a "Contemplative Audit" of our lives before concluding with a powerful musical and poetic reflection on the Christ Hymn in Colossians 1 by Alana Levandoski, featuring poetry by Malcolm Guite, Scott Cairns, Joel McKerrow, and Luci Shaw.View Our Complete Archive of “Space for God” Prayer PracticesLearn More About Spiritual Direction through Coracleinthecoracle.org  |  @inthecoracleSupport the showFor the Journey is a resource of the Coracle Center of Formation for Action and is made possible through the generous support of men and women across the globe.

In recent weeks we've been uploading some episodes from about 15 years ago that were recently discovered. This, however, is not one of those. It aired in early 2026. Stay tuned though. More oldies are on their way! When comparing the world's religions on the subject of contemplation/meditation, Christianity can point to a tradition of monasteries where monks and nuns have engaged in such practices for centuries. Yet, very little has filtered down to those in the pews. One reason so many Christians turned to the wisdom of the East is the the deep-seated desire to learn the art of sitting in silence. In our conversation with Jacob here we see that there is an attempt to encourage Christians (in this case, Catholics) to embrace this path of sacred stillness. Theme music "Nigal."

Romans 9 opens with one of the most heart-wrenching statements in all of Scripture—Paul declares he would be willing to be cursed and cut off from Christ if it meant his Jewish brothers and sisters would find salvation. This isn't just rhetoric; it's the cry of a heart that mirrors God's own desire for the lost. We're confronted with an uncomfortable question: Do we carry this same burden for those who don't know Jesus? The passage challenges us to examine whether our faith has made us complacent or compassionate. Paul reminds us that Israel had everything—the covenants, the law, the prophets, the promises—yet they stumbled over the stumbling stone of Jesus Christ. This isn't just ancient history; it's a mirror for our own lives. We can have all the religious heritage, church attendance, and biblical knowledge in the world, but if we haven't built our lives on Jesus as the chief cornerstone, we've missed everything. The message is clear: when we stand before God, the only answer that matters begins with 'He'—Jesus paid our price. Everything else, every 'I did this' or 'my family was that,' falls short. This passage invites us to move from offense to foundation, from stumbling over Christ to building our entire existence upon Him.### Sermon Notes:**Introduction:**- The sermon is focused on Romans 9:1-5, discussing Paul's deep sorrow and fervent desire for the Israelites to recognize Jesus as the Messiah.- Paul expresses a willingness to be accursed if it meant the salvation of his fellow Jews.**Key Points:**1. **Recap of Romans 1-8:**  - Chapters 1-8 outline that all have sinned and salvation comes only through Jesus Christ, resulting in no condemnation for believers.  2. **Paul's Anguish for the Israelites:**  - Paul is deeply sorrowful, wishing he could take the place of his Jewish brethren to ensure their salvation.  - This mirrors Moses in Exodus who offered to be blotted out for the sake of his people.3. **Moses and the Israelites:**  - The story of the golden calf in Exodus 32 illustrates Israel's disobedience and idolatry.  - Despite their failures, Moses interceded for them, showing a type and shadow of Christ's ultimate sacrifice.4. **Jesus as the Anathema:**  - Unlike Moses or Paul, Jesus fulfilled the role of being accursed by taking on the sins of humanity.  - He becomes the cornerstone of faith as opposed to a stumbling block for those who reject Him.5. **Israel and the Rejection of Jesus:**  - Israel was given statutes, laws, and prophets but rejected Christ, who was predicted throughout their history.  - However, there remains a future hope for Israel's recognition of Christ as the Messiah.**Practical Applications:**- **Reflect on Sacrifice and Compassion:** - Emulate Paul's and Moses' compassion by earnestly praying for those who do not know Christ. - Contemplate the sacrificial nature of Jesus and how it can inspire personal sacrifice for others.- **Firm Foundation in Christ:** - Ensure that Christ is the cornerstone upon which all aspects of life are built. - Align personal life choices and behaviors with the teachings of the Bible.- **Discern and Preach the Gospel:** - Continue to share the message of the cross despite facing ridicule or opposition. - Use opportunities to discuss the faith and exemplify Christ-likeness in actions and words.**Discussion Questions:**1. How do the desires of Paul and Moses for their people challenge our own priorities and prayers for the unsaved?2. In what ways can we ensure that Jesus is the cornerstone in our lives rather than a stumbling block?3. How can the story of the golden calf teach us about obedience and faithfulness in our current cultural context?4. What are practical ways we can intercede for others, following the examples of Paul, Moses, and ultimately Jesus?These notes, applications, and questions encourage a deep reflection on personal faith, the role of Jesus as a savior, and our mission to live out and share the gospel.

Dear one,A winter storm is sweeping its way across the US. Where I live, Minnesota is bracing below zero degrees — From snow to frigid cold - it slows the world, ices the branches, and hushes everything under a weight of cold clarity.Our city of Minneapolis is under siege and near anarchy.Saddened. And honestly? It feels familiar.Not just outside, but internally too — like something in the atmosphere, inside and out, is shifting.We all feel the drip drip - FLOOD of energetic uncertainty. You know those days when it feels like life is doing more than landing gently?Sudden overwhelm. Unexpected feedback. A decision rising to the surface before you feel ready. Emotions that crack like ice under your ribs.Every choice we make carries profound creative consequences. We are remarkable agents of creation. With that in mind, my desire is helping you genuinely understand that every choice you make in life sets powerful creative forces in motion. There are profound shifts we believe are happening “out there,” when in truth they are happening in here. We are the engines of everything unfolding around us—and that is a difficult truth to fully comprehend.I've come to understand power as the fundamental ingredient of life. Everything is about power—absolutely everything.This is a POWERFUL energetic winter — when everything gets quiet, stretched, cold, and cracked open… all at once.These moments don't ask for performance.PAUSE …..They ask for presence. Think of Japanese calligraphy. The magic isn't just in the ink; it's in the white space. In our lives, that white space is the Pause. It's the gap between tasks where transformation actually happens.Because even on the days when your thoughts feel loud, your nervous system feels tight, and your emotional body is pulsing just outside your window of welcome — there is wisdom here.Our Souls incarnate to experience creatorship through choice, allowing us to express ourselves as unique aspects of the Divine.Only in the third dimension can Souls distinctly witness their creative abilities within separate bodies, making our actions and experiences truly our own—…it's about individuation. While manifesting follows Universal Law, each Soul uniquely interacts with these laws, encoded at the seventh-dimensional level of our Divine Oversoul's Devotion here on earth. The LIGHT BETWEEN ORACLE EXPERIENCE creates a time for wonder, contemplation and problem solving The Light Between Oracle App supports you through intense emotional experiences in real time.It's your personalized support tool designed to meet you in the middle of the inner snowstorm, not after the skies clear.Inside the self empowering oracle experience, you'll find:* Responsive, interactive intuitive readings that shift based on your energy and intention* Nervous system regulation tools to help you stay connected when you feel scattered, numb, or flooded* Soul-level journaling prompts, visualization journeys, and symbolic guidance that helps you turn emotional static into grounded clarity* A gently intelligent structure designed by someone who understands trauma, healing, leadership, and magicIf there is anything we've learned in the chaotic start of 2026, we know we cannot escape the storm of a fast changing world.BUT, we can find our footing inside it — moment by moment.Because when you can stay a few seconds longer with what's rising — even when it's sharp, shaky, or snow-blind — you open a new pathway inside your body. One where kindness, grace, and calm return on their own time.Sometimes the sky cracks for a reason.Sometimes the storm isn't chaos — it's recalibration.The five guiding lights offer a contemplative space that does not overwhelm you with more noise. Each guide meets you where you are and helps you hear yourself through it all. You don't have to be calm to begin; you just need to show up with one intention. Let each pause be your co-regulator. Your sacred pause. The gentle hand on your back that says: “It's going to be ok. You only can save yourself. You're just being reshaped.”Life is not a series of separate experiences. We are one unified bio-spiritual system. Sending you so much love healing and the will to PAUSE and CONTEMPLATE where there is still peace, hope and evolution as we heal our collective trauma.Warmth in the wild weather,Love - KassandraP.S. If life feels like slush right now — swirl, slide, standstill — no shame. These are the conditions in which we often uncover the very inner signals we've been too busy to hear. The Light Between is designed to catch those signals and help you make sense of them. You don't have to “figure it out.” You just have to open the app, and let your energy tell you where you are.P.P.S. Bundle up. Light the candle. Take a breath. The storm doesn't get to define you — but it can reveal you. The Light Between is a reader-supported publication.

Christ's death was judgment on him because he bore our sins (not his own), and it was mercy toward us who trust him.

Have we grown too familiar with the wonder of Christmas?   In this Advent conversation, Jason Watson is joined by theologian, author, and apologist Dr. Amy Orr-Ewing to explore why the incarnation is not only wondrous but reasonable—and why Christmas remains one of the church's greatest evangelistic opportunities. From Mary's courageous “yes” to the credibility of miracles and the cultural openness of Advent, this episode invites leaders and believers to rediscover the depth, wonder, and missional power of Christmas. Key Takeaways The Christmas story invites honest questions and skepticism rather than suppressing them The incarnation is presented in Scripture as extraordinary—but grounded in evidence and eyewitness testimony Mary's voice in Luke's Gospel reveals agency, consent, and profound theological insight Early Christians reframed—not compromised—culture to proclaim Christ as the Light of the World Advent creates unique spiritual openness marked by longing, memory, and reflection Christmas is not just a celebration—it's a strategic moment for gospel proclamation Preachers and leaders are called to recover awe, not sentimentality, in telling the Christmas story If this episode encouraged you, subscribe to the Lausanne Movement Podcast, leave a review, and share it with a pastor, leader, or friend preparing for Advent. Consider how you might intentionally use the Christmas season this year to invite others to encounter Jesus.

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John shares with the audience something he did with his class at the University of Texas. John had a student play the 20-year-old version of John Mitchell. And John played the current version. John then imparted lessons to the 20-year-old version of himself that would make his life way easier and way more successful earlier. And here's the essence of what it came down to. WORK SMARTER. But most of us are ingrained to just work harder. Big mistake. But the natural question is how do you work smarter?At the end of the day, it comes down to understanding HOW THE HUMAN MIND WORKS. And the linchpin issue is that 95% of a person's daily thoughts and actions are unconscious. Once a person gets the PROFOUND RAMIFICATIONS of that, their life is never the same. The BIG DOMINO DROPS. And here's why. Your success in life comes down to your DAILY ACTIONS. If 95% your daily actions are unconscious, if you are not gaining control over those unconscious daily actions you're playing the game of life at 5% of your potential.And here's the other key thing that comes from that. YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS MIND CONTROLS YOUR LIFE. It's either your greatest asset or your greatest nemesis and challenge. Contemplate that for minute. Here's why that's the case. We are all innately WIRED FOR SURVIVAL. That causes 75% of our thoughts be fear-based and we're reactive rather than proactive on our agenda. Therefore if you do nothing to override being wired for survival, you live life fear-based and reactive every day. It's a horrible way to live. But if you take control of your subconscious mind, and feed the succinct articulation of your life yourself each day, it's a whole new ballgame. You'll now wired yourself for success, rather than being wired for survival.So it's your choice. Do you want your subconscious mind to be your biggest asset, or do you want it to be your greatest challenge that you have to fight every day. It's up to you. Controlling your subconscious mind only takes 12 minutes a day.Buy John's book, THE MISSING SECRET of the Legendary Book Think and Grow Rich : And a 12-minute-a-day technique to apply it here.About the Hosts:John MitchellJohn's story is pretty amazing. After spending 20 years as an entrepreneur, John was 50 years old but wasn't as successful as he thought he should be. To rectify that, he decided to find the “top book in the world” on SUCCESS and apply that book literally Word for Word to his life. That Book is Think & Grow Rich. The book says there's a SECRET for success, but the author only gives you half the secret. John figured out the full secret and a 12 minute a day technique to apply it.When John applied his 12 minute a day technique to his life, he saw his yearly income go to over $5 million a year, after 20 years of $200k - 300k per year. The 25 times increase happened because John LEVERAGED himself by applying science to his life.His daily technique works because it focuses you ONLY on what moves the needle, triples your discipline, and consistently generates new business ideas every week. This happens because of 3 key aspects of the leveraging process.John's technique was profiled on the cover of Time Magazine. He teaches it at the University of Texas' McCombs School of Business, which is one the TOP 5 business schools in the country. He is also the “mental coach” for the head athletic coaches at the University of Texas as well.Reach out to John at john@thinkitbeit.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-mitchell-76483654/Kelly HatfieldKelly Hatfield is an entrepreneur at heart.

October is about the 'how.'There's plenty of resources in the planetary alignments this month: Mars is at home in Scorpio, Jupiter is exalted in Cancer, and Venus will enter her home in Libra halfway through the month.The question isn't about whether we have enough resources. The question is how we navigate our relationship with the resources we're given.How we walk the path is the path itself.We dive into: Foundations for creating true impact without losing your soul.Maintaining integrity as a pathway to receiving Divine assistance.Creating new, updated contracts with ourselves and others – not out of fantasy or rigid expectations, but out of clear, grounded sight.The deeper lessons behind ideological disagreements.I also pulled Hexagram 10 and 59 from the I Ching.

In advance of the upcoming Solar Eclipse in Virgo on September 21st, I'm re-sharing a section of my deep dive on the 2025 astrology with Kelsey Rose Tortorice – specifically the part where we discussed the Lunar Nodes in Pisces-Virgo axis. I hope this serves you! If you're into my and Kelsey's vibes and transmissions, check out the full conversation: Part 1 on this podcast (Outer Planets + Chiron)Part 2 on Kelsey's podcast, The Maia Games (The Lunar Nodes, Saturn, and Jupiter)Here's Kelsey's bio:Kelsey is a post-capitalist astrologer, teacher, human design experiMentor, and community initiator. Ruled by a 7th house Jupiter in Gemini, they are a student-teacher of the maia; seeking to understand and universalize the mechanics of reality within the context of individuality, relationship, cosmos, and consciousness as a whole. Kelsey's frequency facilitates upheaval; disrupting homogenized programming and re-orienting people to their differentiated truth and separateness as a means to arriving to connection & inherent wholeness. With reverence for differentiation and a knack for universalization, they embrace the simultaneous uniqueness and sameness of each human experience. Their work incorporates various modalities, frameworks, and spiritual teachings in honoring and navigating this apparent contradiction.Kelsey accompanies others on their journeys towards remembering what they Know, and invites deeper levels of autonomy, authenticity, faith, freedom, and surrender along the way.Kelsey's Links:Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/kelseyrosetortWebsite: https://www.kelseyrosetort.com/IG: https://www.instagram.com/kelseyrosetort/Podcast: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/themaiagames/ If you've enjoyed and benefited from the podcast, I invite you to apply for private mentorship and coaching with me.

AI has plenty of potential upsides. Helping you think more deeply about life isn't one of them. Maybe, if done wrong, it helps us fulfill our worst desires. Will AI reduce us to simply our desires? Can it free up time in our lives to contemplate the truth? Also, there's a lengthy discussion about sex with robots towards the end. It's topical, we promise, but maybe don't listen to this one with your kids. Maybe don't listen to any Catching Foxes episodes with your kids. Enjoy!

Hope this helps someone.
