Let's just see how it goes.

What I would like us to do first,

However,

Before we get started on anything is to arrive fully in this moment.

Right?

Nothing to fix.

Nothing to solve or chase.

Just be here now.

In fact,

We can place one hand on our heart,

Another one on your lower belly,

If you'd like,

And just take a slow,

Small inhale through the nose.

Let it go through the mouth.

You can inhale deeply now into the nose and then a slow exhale.

And make it audible if you can or if you'd like.

Letting whatever came before this time to fall away.

Feeling the weight of your body being held by the chair,

By the floor,

The earth beneath you.

You are safe to see and you're safe to feel.

So I want to take the next few minutes.

We're going to do this in sections.

So if you have your water,

If you have a crystal rock that you like to palm,

You know,

If you have essential oils,

What's this one?

This one's a rose.

I'll put some rose on so that you can just smell into,

Oh yeah,

If you have any essential oils,

Breathe into that.

But I was going to,

I'll smudge this really quick while everyone's getting situated so that we can clear the air and be fully present,

Fully here.

Not in the argument that might have happened or the anticipation of a discussion that you might need to have later.

We are right here and I want us to speak to this cycle right now so that we can expand and heal and grow.

Right?

Thinking about your top growth or lessons in this cycle.

And there's so many cycles.

There are so many portals.

There's so much happening in 2026.

I will talk more about this also on Sunday.

You know,

On the 26th of January,

We start a new 13 year cycle.

Which means that we are ending one.

And so for some of you,

I ask,

You know,

What was going on in 2013 for you?

What has been going on from 2013 until now as this 13 year cycle comes to an end?

And the next one begins.

What top growth,

What top lessons,

What,

What's been speaking to you in this cycle?

Oh,

There's a little Palo Santo stick too.

I like these.

I'm going to give you two minutes.

Start writing down what speaks to you.

What growth have you found?

Lessons,

Top growth cycles or not that you've been in.

What is speaking to you?

Get those jotted down.

I'll give us another 15 seconds.

Speaking to this cycle in your life,

Right?

We're in transition as a reset.

As I said,

You know,

The calendar year has flipped to 2026,

But the energy of the wood snake is still with us,

Right?

Feeling into the experiences that are no longer resonating with us.

Shedding that old skin.

I heard a,

Um,

You know,

A thing,

However you call it,

You know,

When you,

Maybe it was doom scrolling,

But it said,

You know,

When a snake sheds its skin,

There is no possible way that they'd be able to put that skin back on.

I mean,

There's no possible way like had to really work its way out of it.

Right.

And so there are some of us that are trying to put on the old skin that is clearly not fitting.

And we need to leave that behind and trust the process,

You know,

Know that the divine has our back,

Know that source has our back.

In fact,

Why don't we get connected?

Let's just tap into our body.

You might also along the way,

Find where we have stored stored trauma physically in our body that might possibly want to come up and be released today.

Starting at the top of our head and just scanning our bodies all the way down tight jaw and the raised shoulders or the clenched fists.

Checking in with the knot in our stomach,

The tension in our pelvic area.

Making note as we check in with our upper legs,

Our knees,

Our lower legs,

Our ankles,

Our feet and our toes to the tips of our toes.

There's energy and feeling and with this vision casting,

It's not really creating anything new.

It's actually just remembering what we've already wanted.

And,

You know,

If you'd like,

You can gently close your eyes if you feel safe and comfortable to do so and tap into your third eye.

You know,

It's our intuition.

It's our vision.

It's our way that we can picture what an apple might look like,

Even though we don't have an apple in front of us.

Step into our intuition.

Tap into our third eye,

Right?

Really allowing the body to relax and allowing trust to come forward,

Dropping in deeper,

Allowing yourself to feel heavier.

And I'd like you to use your third eye to now visualize what you want in this next year.

If nothing could be in your way,

What do you want to see happen?

What do you want to have happen?

And no shitting on yourself.

You got that right.

I should do this or I should do that.

Or we should be further along than we are.

Now,

You are exactly where you're supposed to be.

And we quit shitting on ourselves and give ourselves grace.

Where do you see yourself?

What milestones?

What accomplishments?

What accolades?

What,

What changes?

Where are you going to leap?

Let yourself truly focus right on what that would mean for you.

What would feel incredible to experience this year?

Ask yourself,

What would feel incredible to experience this year?

And feel it.

We're going to journal it in a minute.

What would feel incredible to experience this year?

If you weren't shitting on yourself,

Everything does go according to plan.

It's what you have interjected and intercepted in the plan.

The minute you came up with it,

It was in motion until you started shitting on yourself.

If you'd like,

You can pull out your journal.

I'm going to give us about three minutes so that we can identify what it is that we would like to experience this year and then be able to drink it in,

Breathe it in,

Take it in so that it's not out there.

Right here in our heart.

What is something incredible that you want to experience this year?

If your eyes are closed,

You can slowly get in touch with your breath.

After you've journaled,

Of course,

After you've kind of anchored in,

What I want to do is anchor in this fleeting vision that I see.

I want to anchor that feeling into my body,

Right?

Tapping into the physical.

Connecting to our root,

Which is connected to Mother Earth.

So that we can feel safe in this mission.

See that experience that you want.

And I want you to take it and bring light to it.

I was going to say wrap it in gold light,

But I don't want to limit you to however you want to see white light.

You can encompass it in illuminating light,

Right?

I often,

I don't know,

For some reason,

I guess,

You know,

My body,

I feel like is like an egg.

You know,

I come out a little bit more at the hips and then you come in at the feet.

And so I always kind of,

My brain goes to an egg and I fill that egg with light,

Right?

Let's take five deep breaths and we're going to breathe into the crown so that we can bring in this light and bring it down into our body as we are continuing to be tapped into this incredible experience that we know will come to fruition if we would just get out of our own way,

Right?

Let's breathe in to the top of our head and let it go and let it go.

Breathing in,

Activating our bodies,

Let it go.

Breathing in and let it go.

Breathing in,

Letting that experience play out in your mind's eye.

See the elation or the joy or the laughter or the satisfaction,

Right?

Take yourself there and bring this light down.

Maybe like a spotlight.

You can't run from it.

You're enveloped in it.

It's embracing you.

Bring the light down through your crown,

Down into your throat,

Illuminating your voice,

Hmm,

Anchoring this experience in so that you can express how you feel.

Bringing it down,

This light kind of hits your shoulders and then rolls off and continues to fill in that encapsulated egg.

Maybe even dripping off your shoulders like honey,

Kind of thick and as it makes its way to your heart space,

Filling in your chest,

Coating your tummy,

Allowing this light to anchor in your pelvic area.

Go over and turn up the volume a little bit.

Turn up the dial.

Illuminate how truly safe you are.

Once you get out of your mind's way and anchor it into your body,

Which has so many messages for you.

Let's go ahead and drop that light from the base of your spine,

Down your legs,

Your kneecaps.

The back of your calves.

Maybe twist your feet.

Get some energy moving in those ankles,

Allowing the light to come all the way through,

Shooting out the tips of your toes so that you are lit up and supported.

Feeling this embrace.

Feeling this experience.

Feel the experience in your body.

Take yourself there.

Play it out in your mind as clearly as you can.

And however that falls,

Know that it's enough.

Some of us can see the experience.

Some of us can feel the pleasure,

The satisfaction,

The satisfaction of the experience.

Some of us can feel the success.

Some of us can hear the elation.

Zero hesitation,

Right?

Wrapping this all in the golden light that has been filled in your physical body.

The golden light that has been filled into you.

Maybe even have a cloud in your brain so that it forces you to come down into your heart.

Speak from your heart,

Lead from your heart,

See from your heart,

Feel from your heart,

Right?

Don't forget to breathe into your heart.

See the others here in community,

Feeling their experiences,

Seeing their experiences,

Seeing others set forth off into their year,

Right?

Reaching higher timelines,

Knowing that they are supported.

Breathing in,

Knowing that if we face in that direction,

We will have the wind at the sail behind us without effort.

Surrounding yourself with the guiding light,

Tapping back in whenever you need,

Knowing that you are so divinely supported and guided.

Your team wants me to ask you,

When's the last time you've asked for help?

Not,

You know,

A list of what to do,

But have been open to receiving help.

Are you open to receiving from source or do you get in their way because you think that you can do it all yourself?

Do you have any anchor words?

Any downloads?

Anything coming to you as you sit in stillness?

You know,

One of the practices that I've started,

It's been pretty,

It's different than what I thought it would be,

Is to sit in 30 minutes of silence every day.

And it's not meditation.

Getting back in touch with,

You know,

With the earth,

Right?

With not being out there in my head,

But being,

You know,

What is actually really happening in my reality.

Do I have a bed to sleep in?

Do I have a door that I can lock that I feel safe in?

You know,

Am I taking care of my immediate area,

My immediate surroundings,

Right?

Knowing that you're supported,

But calling on your team because they say,

We can't just pray,

Okay,

Okay,

This is all the things that I want.

We have to be open to receiving.

We have to say,

You know what,

Why don't you do what's best for all involved and then see the miracles that come from being open as opposed to controlling,

Thinking that I can figure it all out and do it all myself and I get nowhere fast,

Right?

And the thing about here,

The thing about Insight Timer is that when we show up in groups,

Everything is amplified,

The energy,

The intention.

We have so much power,

Power in our thoughts,

Especially,

You know,

If there's ever anything that is not resonating with you,

What I was taught to do is to say,

You know,

Where did I,

Where did I even get that from?

And then it ends up that it was Uncle Bob Joe or,

You know,

In something that I had picked up and carried and hadn't ever really decided whether that was what I was owning,

You know,

Wait,

I don't even,

I don't even agree with that.

Why,

Why do I have that be my thought and replace it with what is working and what I do want to have happen?

We know,

Especially our container,

We know that our thoughts magnify what we focus on grows,

You know,

So if you're thinking about the ills of society that can expand and if you think about the healing of the world that also expands,

Right?

It's the year of the fire horse.

It is not hitting the ground running.

There's so much trust in a horse because,

You know,

When they have their blinders on,

They can't see what's up around the corner and they keep going.

In fact,

They're flying.

But how is that horse flying?

How is that horse able to run like that because of the preparation?

Horses have to be groomed,

They have to be fed,

They have to be trained.

I mean,

There's,

You know,

We are not,

There's going to be a wobble from this shedding of skin that does not fit no matter how many times you're trying to put it back on,

Right?

To being able to take off in that blind faith.

When we see our future self and,

You know,

I'm wanting the image to arrive naturally.

When you see this incredible experience that you can't wait for,

Maybe in your journal book,

You know,

Your pen and paper,

You can note,

Where are you?

How do you carry yourself?

How are you moving through the day,

Right?

What feels inevitable?

What feels right,

Right?

See the quality of your life.

What's the,

What's the expression on your face?

This version of you that we are vision casting is not competing or hustling,

It's inhabiting,

Right?

You could even receive a word or a color or a sensation.

There's no wrong answer.

You know,

I know some of my friends have said they cannot visualize,

But they can feel,

They can know what that feeling feels like.

Just like when we walk into a room where their parents have been fighting when we're younger,

And you can,

What do they say,

Cut the energy with a knife.

Or when you walk into Farrell's pizza parlor for the six-year-old's birthday party,

And that energy,

Right?

We can feel it.

We can let the frequency come clear,

Whether it's something that we feel or see,

Or just know.

My point for this vision casting wasn't to do like a vision board,

Right?

Instead of reaching toward the vision and cutting out pieces of paper,

I want to allow it to move toward you.

And as we did,

Allowing the vision from our third eye to start to descend into our body.

We brought it through our throat,

Where the truth is spoken easily,

Through our hearts,

Where devotion lives,

Down into our solar plexus and our belly,

Where decisions are made without hesitation.

Our womb,

Our lower belly,

Where creation is born,

Right?

Finally,

Down into our legs,

Our feet,

Where our vision learns how to walk out into the world.

What changes in your body?

Do your shoulders soften?

Does your breath deepen?

Do you feel heavier,

Calmer,

More here,

Present?

Because when you do,

This is how the body says yes.

I'd like you to silently repeat after me as we bring this portion to a close.

I do not have to chase what's already mine.

This future recognizes me.

My body knows how to hold this.

I do not have to chase what's already mine.

The future recognizes me.

My body already knows how to hold this.

What is already mine.

You can take one more slow breath.

If your eyes are closed,

You can gently flutter them open when you're ready.

But bringing this vision back with you,

It's not a goal,

Right?

It's a tone that you carry.

The work is not to make it happen.

It's to stay congruent with what you've just felt,

Right?

Your vision doesn't need to live in the future.

It lives in the way that your body says yes today.

And then I'm telling you it works.

Do the dishes as her,

Walk to the car as her,

Make your purchase as her.

We are literally reprogramming the bullshit.

And there's so much more that we'll do on Sunday with the new moon in Capricorn.

Capricorn is all about structure and foundation.

It's like in my notes,

I channeled scaffolding.

Let's see what kind of,

Um,

And if any of you have anything that you want to share about your vision,

Let us know and we can see it forward with you.

Did I just say the word vision?

Trust in your ability to create the vision in your soul.

You are a celestial being with unlimited potential.

There is so much for you to share.

No limitations,

Dear heart.

No limitations.

Trust in your ability to create vision in your soul.

You are a celestial being with unlimited potential.

There is so much for you to share.

And the final one that we got is your external world.

I used to hate this one because it's true.

Your external world is a reflection of your inner world.

So if there is chaos all around you,

Then it's,

You know,

Usually conflict within you.

Right?

We don't want to face that we aren't acting with integrity,

Acting the way we know that we want to,

Or intend to,

Not that someone else is telling us how to.

There is no flutter of anxiety.

The only time I got anxiety is when I was doing things I didn't want to do.

And I mean my own,

You know,

I don't mean that someone was asking me to do something I didn't want to do.

I was just kind of doing something.

I knew it wasn't right.

And that anchors physically in our body.

Reflect on this moment with love,

Kindness,

And compassion.

I was telling you earlier about my 30 seconds a day,

30 seconds,

My ego wishes,

30 minutes a day of sitting in silence,

Allowing the thoughts to,

I don't feel like I finished that train of thought,

Um,

Allowing the thoughts to float on by.

But it's not meditation.

It's not with eyes closed.

It can be if you wanted,

But it's not.

It's an anchoring into the present moment,

Into the here and now.

Setting your timer for 30 minutes.

No phone,

No game,

No TV,

No music,

No,

Just 30 minutes of silence.

And it's been life changing for me.

I kind of thought,

Well,

I mean,

Hello,

I'm a meditation teacher.

Uh,

We do this all the time,

But to actually realize that I was looking down at the clock and going,

Okay,

Is that 22 and not actually being in the 30 minutes looking out the window.

I actually started it at,

Um,

In a group that I was in that it was suggested.

And so this was back at Thanksgiving and Thanksgiving,

I was visiting my family in another state.

And so I was in a different environment,

A different room,

Uh,

Which was pretty cool.

They had a big,

Uh,

My mom has a big plate glass window in the,

In the bedroom that I was in.

And I was able to just watch life go by out there.

You know,

It was,

There was a street and,

Um,

I guess like an intersection.

So I just saw the light turn red,

Turn green and the cars going through and the people at the crosswalk wondering what is going on in their lives.

We are the main character in our lives.

Even if you have a spouse and you're like,

Why didn't you know what you were supposed to?

Because they are the main character in their movie,

Not in your movie.

We need to remember to inform what we want because we are the main character in our own movies,

Our children as well.

You know,

They have a full agenda.

They get in trouble and get sent to their room.

What is their first question?

When can I get out?

Because they're living in the present moment and they've,

They've got things to do.

When do I get to get out of here?

So that can go back to what it is that I'm doing because I live in the present moment.

Children aren't dwelling on what happened in the past.

They actually,

Um,

Gratefully,

Thank God,

Don't hold grudges for what you did yesterday with the peanut butter.

That just doesn't happen.

Right.

Or in the future,

They are present day angels,

Animals as well.

You know,

Dogs in the present moment,

Not thinking about yesterday or tomorrow.

And so in this 30 minutes,

I let all of that stuff go through my head because I'm still kind of until it just is gone.

And then when you do it every day,

You're able to settle in even faster and quicker and realize that it's just a space to be,

To encompass,

To appreciate and the blessings.

You know,

I,

I look around because I have a roof over my head and there's some homeless people in this town that don't,

The things that we take for granted.

We've talked about that so much in this container,

The ability to turn the light switch up and down.

When's the last time that you were grateful for electricity and said,

Oh gosh,

I'm so grateful.

In fact,

Every time you pay the electric bill,

Thank you so much for trusting me with the electricity this month that you afforded me.

And now I'm going to give my exchange back in the form of monetary payments so that I can have more electricity that I take for granted.

When we really slow down and recognize,

You know,

And get out of our pity party,

How truly fortunate we are.

And then take these exercises,

This vision casting,

You know,

The most incredible experience this year.

How are you going to get there?

How did,

How do you reverse engineer so that by default,

It lands in your lap because we were open to receive.

It's time to reveal your radiant light to the world.

Your sacred calling upon this planet is to simply love and be loved.

Hello.

And see all aspects of yourself through the reflection of the one who mirrors your hidden self.

All right.

I will be back Sunday and I have a lot to say about this 28 degrees in Capricorn and about it being the very first new moon setting our new moon intentions for the year.

And if you join me from the beginning,

Go back to 2013.

This incredibly intense 13 year portal is about to begin on the 26th of January.

And because it's beginning for another 13 years to 2039,

What we can do is reflect back on if this is a beginning,

Then that means there's also an ending.

And so that 13 year portal has ended and it is from 2013.

What was going on in your life and what lessons and what growth as we worked on earlier in our journals,

Did you experience over these 13 years?

And what,

What do you foresee for the next 13 year plot?

Anything that you want,

You know,

And,

And the minute you start saying,

Well,

It better not be this.

You're already going down the,

The,

The negative train.

Who said it better not be.

We weren't even talking about what shouldn't be.

We're talking about what is going to be period.

So catch your,

Uh,

What is it?

Negative Nelly or how does that go?

Uh,

Stinking thinking,

But that's Stuart Smalley.

Another one of my favorites.

We came to earth to experience earth to experience this beauty,

You know,

These eucalyptus trees that talk to each other and the animals that talk to each other and the vibrancy of life.

And so focus on that and not drama,

Queen bullshit.

Okay.

I love you so much.

I will see you.

Uh,

It is 10 30,

My time in the morning.

So it's one 30 in the afternoon Eastern time.

If you want to find out more about this new moon,

The previous new moons and the following two new moons,

Because they were all at the exact same degree of oneness and preparedness and,

Um,

Starts,

Right?

It is not,

It is not about action.

It is about observing so that we can go.

And we have,

Um,

What is this?

The 16th two more weeks,

Four more weeks,

Even let's say we have another month of shedding.

Thank God,

Because I want to let you know that what you do not let go of,

If you're hanging on a stranglehold onto something that you know is not good for you,

But you know,

It's just easier.

You're taking it to another nine year cycle.

We've just ended a nine year where you're going into a one year.

And so everything from here,

Actually also from,

Um,

2017 from 2017 to now,

Or 2018 to now was a nine year cycle that we were also in this 13 year cycle.

I'm talking more about Uranus,

Which is abrupt and sudden change.

There's so much going on.

Neptune and Saturn are coming,

Uh,

To zero degrees,

Which is harmony and anything that Neptune's all about our dreams,

Whatever you want to dream about.

And it's in Aries.

I go first.

Yeah.

When,

When it feels right,

Right.

We're not shitting on ourselves anymore.

So I'm not going to feel what I should be doing even here on insight timer.

And it feels so much better.

Okay.

I love you.

I will see you day after tomorrow,

Sunday morning or Sunday afternoon for those on the East coast at one 30.

And we will talk about this 28 degrees Capricorn and everything that we can do to set our intentions for the year ahead.

I love you so much.

Bye.
