Trusting the Inner Knowing: A Soul Discovery Session in a Time of Transition

In seasons of change, the soul asks us to slow down, listen, and trust what we already know.

This reflection from a recent month-long Soul Discovery Session reveals what can unfold when intuition is honored, grounding is practiced, and hope is allowed to take root — even before clarity fully arrives.

Testimonial: A Client’s Soul Discovery Journey

Grounding & Self Care
“The reading spoke a lot about grounding and self-care, which are both very important to me. I've been practicing more self-care, though I really need to practice grounding more, as I tend to be an anxious worry wart. But, I have gotten better at this over time. There's a part of me that worries about the future, but something tells me, intuitively, things will be ok. It was comforting to hear my "creative mind and intuition" will provide support.”

Heart & 3rd Eye Chakras
“What you communicated in these areas was also comforting. My mom needs me to help her through her transitional phase. You said to move forward "knowing you have choices and luck is on your side." You also mentioned in the 3rd Eye portion that my psychic and intuitiveness are strong, allowing me to see in the future and the past. There is comfort in going through the transition knowing I have that gift — power — strength. You also said to just rest in that ability, to rest in that strength and knowingness.

I feel I've always had a strong intuition, and have sometimes been able to see spirit or dream about something that happens. Even in waking hours, from time to time, I feel I get messages/signs from loved ones and guides. Strange things will happen like an apple flying off the counter some distance, when no one has physically touched it. But, these things happen sporadically. I've been trying to get better at understanding signs and messages, and it's been a little frustrating at times. But, maybe I should just let go, let things happen, and trust that inner knowing.”

Astrology, Natal Charts & Work Guidance
”I’m not too familiar with Astrology (planets and moons), but what you said makes sense. It is a time of a lot of change and uncertainty with my work (which is where my worry stems from). I have been hoping to gain some clarity, and have also been trying to follow my intuition. It seemed like I would be in this transitional phase for a while longer, figuring out where I need to be. However, you did say something beneficial may happen in around 2 months. (Yay, I'm so ready for something good to happen.)

The parts about the charts were sometimes a little confusing to me, not having any background in this area. You mentioned several months in the coming year/s where there would be additional transitions or where I would be dealing with doubt, and also times with a lot of insights. But, it was kind of hard for me to keep the timelines straight and what would be happening when.

The cards you pulled seemed to provide hope, while watching my health and being careful to not become overextended. That's so interesting, because, as mentioned, I've been on the fence with one of the start-ups I've been working on. You talked about the shift in my work in creating something that's not been done/does not yet exist. I feel this is related to the start-up I'm working on with my former colleagues.

It was also interesting that you pulled cards related to the Poet, or poetic consciousness, letting go into the poetic realm. I used to be heavily into writing and reading poetry. :-)”

Family & Emotional Boundaries
“Lefty card for my mom — uncanny and super accurate. I know she's going through what she needs to go through in the way she needs to do it, and I need to be accepting of that. But, as an empath it's SUPER HARD, because I feel what she is feeling and it impacts how I feel. My husband keeps telling me to just let her do what she needs to do and to try not to be impacted by her emotional ups and downs. But, he doesn't feel what I feel, and it just seems easier said than done. This is something I'm also working at, and it has gotten a little better over time.”

Takeaways & Hope
“Whew, that was a lot. LOL

In all the turmoil, I guess, my take-aways from this reading are to trust my intuition and know that I'm supported, and good things will unfold in time. While I don't really have answers, I have hope, so thank you.”

Card 5: Abraxia upholds the sky (Lefty Oracle Deck)

Mantra: I expand.

Affirmation: I am guided by my own innate wisdom and in tune with Mother Earth and Father Sky.

Element: Air

If this card appears in a reading anything goes; the possibilities are endless. You have the power to reach for the stars and expand your consciousness into infinity. Your will is strong, your reach is far and your intuition is a guiding force. You are a power to be reckoned with. If you don’t feel this within yourself, then seek out a new friend or an old friend who is expanding in this way and watch their magick unfold. Learn from it; ask questions, analyze, intuit, journal.

In my own life, I find that this card stimulates my strong double Aquarius Moon so I push myself to reach deeper and farther into the mystery, untangle webs and uncover stars. My responsibilities as a shaman and healer are being tested, and I must become stronger because growth is change and I must surrender to the inevitable. The only thing we know for certain is that this too shall change.

Expressive Body Movement Challenge
Stand up (or if you prefer, stay seated) with your arms stretched up high and your feet firmly planted on the ground. Lift your arms as if you’re trying to touch the stars in the night sky (like Goddess Nut), bearing the weight of all this beauty and yourself. Feel your body as a conduit connecting earth and sky. You are a Divine channel allowing the heavens to touch the Earth. Be with this. Feel this. Stretch, stretch, stretch and imagine.

Card 6: Horse (Elfin Ally Oracle Deck)

Horse by Kathy Crabbe

Horse by Kathy Crabbe

Keyword: Graceful
Meaning: With great pride and joy you charge forward trusting you are on the right path.
Reversed: You are at a crossroads, stuck and uncertain.

Affirmation: I am loyal and free.
Astrology: Jupiter, Sagittarius, Sun
Element: Fire

Medicine: Your gentle, spirited eyes kiss and heal the freedom lover within.

Lore: She called to her wildness and freedom unchained, at home with the wind, her beauty un-reined.

I hear you call my name each night before I go to sleep. Your gentle whinny in my ear tells me I am safe and sleep is guaranteed.
