As I've been posting about conspirituality in the wellness industry and spiritual community, I've gotten several comments to the effect of, "I can't understand how spiritual people can be involved in this."

There's a handful of factors involved here that created the perfect storm, as it were, and pre-enlightened wellness/spirituality influencers (along with a handful of the old guard who have engaged in heavy spiritual bypassing) are directly responsible for the spread of conspiracy theories in 2020. They are the recruitment arm of a cult and terrorist organization. We, as a community, enabled this and only we, as a community, can put an end to it.

I promised I would lay all of that out, in detail, in my next blog post. It's too much to post directly to instagram, so it's now available (link in bio), or visit directly: inmysacredspace.com/blog

ASTRO UPDATE: Rough three weeks ahead As you know

ASTRO UPDATE: Rough three weeks ahead

As you know, the energy is incredibly intense right now. Last week, Mars retrograded (in its home sign of Aries, no less) closer to earth than it has been in 15 years, which amps up the general global anger and frustration. We also had a full moon in Aries the same week Mars was closest to earth, which is a double heaping of intense, moody energy–particularly while Mars is retrograding there. And mercury goes retrograde (in Scorpio, Mars' OTHER home sign) today which is going to add confusion and intensity to the mix.

This is a lot of "slowing down" energy but not at all in a comfortable way. Mercury and Mars are the two most action-oriented planets. Thinking and doing. Aries and Scorpio (particularly when in retrograde energy) are not comfortable places to be. Mars/Aries in retrograde can be angry and explosive. Scorpionic retrograde energy can be jealous, paranoid, and distrustful. This is an incredibly volatile mix.

The energy has gotten increasingly more intense since Mars went retrograde in early September and it's not going to let up until after the election (Mars goes direct November 13 and Mercury on election day, November 3). It's been especially evident in my neighborhood where we've had 7 shootings, multiple random sidewalk assaults, and sexual assaults since mid-August and I hear people arguing and screaming at each other outside multiple times a week (which isn't uncommon here, but it's never occurred with this frequency). Mars and mercury are personal planets so they tend to hit closer to home. You can think of those two as affecting you and your neighborhood, whereas something like Pluto and Saturn would affect the country or planet.

I don't expect any of it to get better until at least mid-November, but of course, we're still hanging out in the Pluto return (currently retrograde) of the US, so the bigger social and political landscape is still going to trudge on for a while longer. We just may not be feeling it as directly as we are right now with Mars and Mercury in such precarious placements.

Shit is intense. We’re all feeling it. Take care of yourselves.

In the Tarot world, we have a common label we use

In the Tarot world, we have a common label we use for when the shit hits the fan: a Tower moment.

The Tower is a major arcana card that represents having the rug pulled out from under you, suddenly, and swiftly. The imagery depicts a tower of some kind being struck by lightning from above, crumbling, often on fire, with people falling from it.

This, dear humans, is just such a moment in which we find ourselves in our collective history.

Now, before you go feeling all doom and gloom, every card in the Tarot has a double meaning, and the Tower is no different. It’s got a strong Plutonian theme built into it—destruction, revelation of what is hidden, and rebirth.

The Tower represents the establishment. The status quo of your life. The old foundations which your current beliefs and reality are built upon. And the tower is falling apart. The one thing that we know about the Tower is that once it’s done crumbling, it brings us a new clarity through a shift in perspective. In some ways, you can look at the Tower as being a moment of apocalypse: an unveiling of that which was hidden from our consciousness. The exposure of the shadow. A massive shift in your worldview.

The shi(f)t has hit the fan, my friends. I wrote a whole post about what the Tarot tells us about times like these. You can find the link in my bio.

Spiritual bypassing masks itself in fraudulent emp

Spiritual bypassing masks itself in fraudulent empathy while ignoring, repressing, and invalidating very real emotions and experiences.

This kind of bypassing in regard to Black Lives Matter invalidates hundreds of years of ancestral and emotional trauma of millions of people by telling them to “just get over it” even when they are still experiencing systematic abuse.

Telling them the abuse they are experiencing isn’t real and their anger isn’t justified or valid is gaslighting. Victimhood is only imaginary when you’re not actually being abused. 
Anger is the result of a boundary being crossed. In terms of abusive societal structure, the Black Lives Matter movement is setting a boundary. An entire group of people are saying “this will not happen to us anymore.” Owning your anger and setting a boundary is the opposite of “disempowering.” “I would never have experienced the golden opportunities that are available to us all.” Part of white privilege is that there are a lot more golden opportunities available to white people, simply because they’re white, and until we recognize this and adjust it, people of color are still going to be abused. This argument mistakenly assumes that everyone is afforded the same opportunities as you and lacks the comprehension of what systemic injustice is or does to disadvantaged people.

As souls, we DO yearn for growth. Part of that growth is the experience of compassion, empathy, and understanding other people’s pain, if and especially when that pain is caused by you or a culture that you or your ancestors have contributed to. If you haven’t learned that lesson, you haven’t yet learned Love, and learning (or rather, remembering) Love is what we are here for.  #spirituality #spiritualbypassing #whiteprivilege #spiritualkaren #blacklivesmatter #loveandlight #shadowwork

How’s your #quarantine going?

It’s been up and down. Feeling a lot of fear and anxiety that eventually dissipates as I shift into a deeper layer of the “new normal.” I was meditating today and I heard/saw things that were distractions being removed “to get back to where we need to be.” That feels relevant both for me on a personal level as well as the collective. It was a moody week with all of the rain and the depression and the desire to retreat from the world. But the sun came out today and it was beautiful and I’m in a good mood for the first time in a while.

How about you?

I intend to do everything in my power to create the educational resources necessary for this process and to make the connections between what we do spiritually, as a community, and how it affects the world around us. I hope you'll do your part by learning and sharing. And also by unfollowing any problematic influencers in the wellness industry.

Edit: When I sent this out via email, I immediately had multiple people respond with, “What about Black Lives Matter and Antifa?”

What does Black Lives Matter and Antifa have to do with it? They aren’t running around fawning over a narcissist, praying for secret arrests and executions without a fair trial, living in a conspiratorial delusion, and attempting to overthrow the entire fucking system of democracy–in other words, exhibiting incredibly spiritually unwell behaviors–while simultaneously claiming to be spiritually enlightened.

Do you get it now? The problem is the climate that promoted these actions and that it’s being done in the name of spirituality by people who claim to be spiritual when it is the opposite of spirituality, not just the actions of people on the ground. Black Lives Matter and Antifa did not create a culture of spiritual bypassing so profound that its led millions of people into total a total delusional divergence from reality. Do you see the hypocrisy?

I’m white. Black people aren’t my community. I have no place to critique the actions of an oppressed people when I’m a part of the group that has oppressed them. I’m not a member of Antifa, either. I don’t have an audience with those people. But I am a member of the spiritual community, and when I see hypocrisy in my own community, you better fucking believe I’m going to say something.

I’ve always said that you can count on me to be the asshole that tells you need to hear and not what you want to hear.

As I've been posting about conspirituality in the wellness industry and spiritual community, I've gotten several comments to the effect of, "I can't understand how spiritual people can be involved in this."

There's a handful of factors involved here that created the perfect storm, as it were, and pre-enlightened wellness/spirituality influencers (along with a handful of the old guard who have engaged in heavy spiritual bypassing) are directly responsible for the spread of conspiracy theories in 2020. They are the recruitment arm of a cult and terrorist organization. We, as a community, enabled this and only we, as a community, can put an end to it.

I promised I would lay all of that out, in detail, in my next blog post. It's too much to post directly to instagram, so it's now available (link in bio), or visit directly: inmysacredspace.com/blog

ASTRO UPDATE: Rough three weeks ahead As you know

ASTRO UPDATE: Rough three weeks ahead

As you know, the energy is incredibly intense right now. Last week, Mars retrograded (in its home sign of Aries, no less) closer to earth than it has been in 15 years, which amps up the general global anger and frustration. We also had a full moon in Aries the same week Mars was closest to earth, which is a double heaping of intense, moody energy–particularly while Mars is retrograding there. And mercury goes retrograde (in Scorpio, Mars' OTHER home sign) today which is going to add confusion and intensity to the mix.

This is a lot of "slowing down" energy but not at all in a comfortable way. Mercury and Mars are the two most action-oriented planets. Thinking and doing. Aries and Scorpio (particularly when in retrograde energy) are not comfortable places to be. Mars/Aries in retrograde can be angry and explosive. Scorpionic retrograde energy can be jealous, paranoid, and distrustful. This is an incredibly volatile mix.

The energy has gotten increasingly more intense since Mars went retrograde in early September and it's not going to let up until after the election (Mars goes direct November 13 and Mercury on election day, November 3). It's been especially evident in my neighborhood where we've had 7 shootings, multiple random sidewalk assaults, and sexual assaults since mid-August and I hear people arguing and screaming at each other outside multiple times a week (which isn't uncommon here, but it's never occurred with this frequency). Mars and mercury are personal planets so they tend to hit closer to home. You can think of those two as affecting you and your neighborhood, whereas something like Pluto and Saturn would affect the country or planet.

I don't expect any of it to get better until at least mid-November, but of course, we're still hanging out in the Pluto return (currently retrograde) of the US, so the bigger social and political landscape is still going to trudge on for a while longer. We just may not be feeling it as directly as we are right now with Mars and Mercury in such precarious placements.

Shit is intense. We’re all feeling it. Take care of yourselves.

In the Tarot world, we have a common label we use

In the Tarot world, we have a common label we use for when the shit hits the fan: a Tower moment.

The Tower is a major arcana card that represents having the rug pulled out from under you, suddenly, and swiftly. The imagery depicts a tower of some kind being struck by lightning from above, crumbling, often on fire, with people falling from it.

This, dear humans, is just such a moment in which we find ourselves in our collective history.

Now, before you go feeling all doom and gloom, every card in the Tarot has a double meaning, and the Tower is no different. It’s got a strong Plutonian theme built into it—destruction, revelation of what is hidden, and rebirth.

The Tower represents the establishment. The status quo of your life. The old foundations which your current beliefs and reality are built upon. And the tower is falling apart. The one thing that we know about the Tower is that once it’s done crumbling, it brings us a new clarity through a shift in perspective. In some ways, you can look at the Tower as being a moment of apocalypse: an unveiling of that which was hidden from our consciousness. The exposure of the shadow. A massive shift in your worldview.

The shi(f)t has hit the fan, my friends. I wrote a whole post about what the Tarot tells us about times like these. You can find the link in my bio.

Spiritual bypassing masks itself in fraudulent emp

Spiritual bypassing masks itself in fraudulent empathy while ignoring, repressing, and invalidating very real emotions and experiences.

This kind of bypassing in regard to Black Lives Matter invalidates hundreds of years of ancestral and emotional trauma of millions of people by telling them to “just get over it” even when they are still experiencing systematic abuse.

Telling them the abuse they are experiencing isn’t real and their anger isn’t justified or valid is gaslighting. Victimhood is only imaginary when you’re not actually being abused. 
Anger is the result of a boundary being crossed. In terms of abusive societal structure, the Black Lives Matter movement is setting a boundary. An entire group of people are saying “this will not happen to us anymore.” Owning your anger and setting a boundary is the opposite of “disempowering.” “I would never have experienced the golden opportunities that are available to us all.” Part of white privilege is that there are a lot more golden opportunities available to white people, simply because they’re white, and until we recognize this and adjust it, people of color are still going to be abused. This argument mistakenly assumes that everyone is afforded the same opportunities as you and lacks the comprehension of what systemic injustice is or does to disadvantaged people.

As souls, we DO yearn for growth. Part of that growth is the experience of compassion, empathy, and understanding other people’s pain, if and especially when that pain is caused by you or a culture that you or your ancestors have contributed to. If you haven’t learned that lesson, you haven’t yet learned Love, and learning (or rather, remembering) Love is what we are here for.  #spirituality #spiritualbypassing #whiteprivilege #spiritualkaren #blacklivesmatter #loveandlight #shadowwork

How’s your #quarantine going?

It’s been up and down. Feeling a lot of fear and anxiety that eventually dissipates as I shift into a deeper layer of the “new normal.” I was meditating today and I heard/saw things that were distractions being removed “to get back to where we need to be.” That feels relevant both for me on a personal level as well as the collective. It was a moody week with all of the rain and the depression and the desire to retreat from the world. But the sun came out today and it was beautiful and I’m in a good mood for the first time in a while.

How about you?

I intend to do everything in my power to create the educational resources necessary for this process and to make the connections between what we do spiritually, as a community, and how it affects the world around us. I hope you'll do your part by learning and sharing. And also by unfollowing any problematic influencers in the wellness industry.

Edit: When I sent this out via email, I immediately had multiple people respond with, “What about Black Lives Matter and Antifa?”

What does Black Lives Matter and Antifa have to do with it? They aren’t running around fawning over a narcissist, praying for secret arrests and executions without a fair trial, living in a conspiratorial delusion, and attempting to overthrow the entire fucking system of democracy–in other words, exhibiting incredibly spiritually unwell behaviors–while simultaneously claiming to be spiritually enlightened.

Do you get it now? The problem is the climate that promoted these actions and that it’s being done in the name of spirituality by people who claim to be spiritual when it is the opposite of spirituality, not just the actions of people on the ground. Black Lives Matter and Antifa did not create a culture of spiritual bypassing so profound that its led millions of people into total a total delusional divergence from reality. Do you see the hypocrisy?

I’m white. Black people aren’t my community. I have no place to critique the actions of an oppressed people when I’m a part of the group that has oppressed them. I’m not a member of Antifa, either. I don’t have an audience with those people. But I am a member of the spiritual community, and when I see hypocrisy in my own community, you better fucking believe I’m going to say something.

I’ve always said that you can count on me to be the asshole that tells you need to hear and not what you want to hear.

Edit: When I sent this out via email, I immediately had multiple people respond with, “What about Black Lives Matter and Antifa?” What does Black Lives Matter and Antifa have to do with it? They aren’t running around fawning over a narcissist, praying for secret arrests and executions without a fair trial, living in a conspiratorial delusion, and attempting to overthrow the entire fucking system of democracy–in other words, exhibiting incredibly spiritually unwell behaviors–while simultaneously claiming to be spiritually enlightened. Do you get it now? The problem is the climate that promoted these actions and that it’s being done in the name of spirituality by people who claim to be spiritual when it is the opposite of spirituality, not just the actions of people on the ground. Black Lives Matter and Antifa did not create a culture of spiritual bypassing so profound that its led millions of people into total a total delusional divergence from reality. Do you see the hypocrisy? I’m white. Black people aren’t my community. I have no place to critique the actions of an oppressed people when I’m a part of the group that has oppressed them. I’m not a member of Antifa, either. I don’t have an audience with those people. But I am a member of the spiritual community, and when I see hypocrisy in my own community, you better fucking believe I’m going to say something. I’ve always said that you can count on me to be the asshole that tells you need to hear and not what you want to hear. #awakening #wakeup #spirituality #conspirituality #spiritualbypassing #dothework #innerwork #shadowwork #wellness #wellnesscoach #spiritualgrowth #spiritualquotes #wellnessinfluencer" data-recalc-dims="1">
