I'm really excited because we are going to do a two day workshop where I teach you Kabbalah, where I teach you these ancient, mystical, beautiful ingredients, secrets, tools, codes to how to understand the universe, to how to connect to God, to the Creator, so that you can become a vessel, which you already are, but a wider, bigger vessel. Because the divine light is always pouring in an infinite amount. And each of us has the capacity to be a vehicle for so much light, to reveal light, to reveal possibility, to create love, compassion, goodness, abundance in the world. So join me for these two days. It's a free workshop if you are interested, if you want to quench that thirst in your soul, I think that you're going to walk away with some beautiful, amazing insights. And I think you're going to feel closer to who you really are. And if anything I say is true, it's because there's a part of you that knew it. And you will feel closer to the divine, closer to God and to your soul's mission.

So go to kathyhauer.com life and use the code book if you want to join us and be a part of this community and have live coaching calls with me. And I also will be sending you a one minute daily meditation to set the intention for every single day. I wanted to play for you a clip from our membership and also a clip from this two day workshop I did on Kabbalah and check it out. So first of all, let's talk about what the heck is Kabbalah? Because some people don't know what it is, they don't know what the source of it is, they don't know what the roots of it is. So let's talk about that. Okay, so first of all, so Kabbalah starts with Abraham, like that same person, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. So Abraham is the first person to bring Kabbalah to the world. And this was his way of understanding and sharing with us the secrets of the universe. The very first book that Abraham wrote all of this in is called the Sefer Yetzira. And that's where it all starts. Okay, then, so that was about 3,800 years ago. Okay. So that's when that gets put into the world. And then about 2,000 years ago in the second century, Rabbi Shimon Baruchai was really one of the main people to then really take that initial text and to really bring that more into the. And it's really beautiful some of what he shared. So I'm gonna share these notes with you. But basically, he helped us understand how what this does this work? It basically shares with us that every single word of the Torah, or what some people call the Old Testament, every single word of it has layers of mystical meaning. Okay. So there's like the initial thought of just reading it, and then there's the layers and dimensions of the mystical, the mystical behind every single word. And so we understand that there's like a map and there's a way of understanding that basically it's showing us, and we're going to talk a lot about this today, how the light of the Creator is pouring through and that consciousness and how we can align with that. Okay, so that was the next, like, big text that was in the year around the second century of the common era. That was Rabbi Shimon Baruchai, and he created the. The text, which is the Zohar. Okay. So he was just taking from what Abraham initially wrote and then compiling it into another really inspired, amazing work called the Zohar. And then there was a renaissance in the 16th century in.1 of my favorite places to visit in the north of Israel is this very spiritual, beautiful place called Tzvat. And Rabbi Isaac Luria in that time really brought down even more wisdom, right? And really was another major, major teacher of this work. And then there was, like, more added and more of this sort of came into form in the 21st century. Rabbi Yehuda Ashlag, who many, many people talk about, basically what he did that was revolutionary is he translated Zohar into so many different languages that so many people could then understand this wisdom. Okay, so it starts with Abraham, right? And there's a text called the Sefer Yetzira, and that had all this wisdom. In fact, the Sefer Yetzira is the oldest carbon dated piece of work that actually contains Any information on the zodiac. Okay. So it turns out that Abraham had an understanding of all the different ways that the universe is talking to us and speaking to us and how God is pouring through everything. And so Abraham is the person who wrote down the zodiac and understood the order of the constellations and the energies to different months, which is why it follows the lunar calendar, which is the Hebrew calendar. Okay. And so it starts there, and then it sort of continues to move through the generations. And eventually it's been translated in ways that we can all understand it. So what's important to understand, and then we're going to start talking about it, is that this is a universal language. Right? The same way that if you went to yoga class, there is so much that you can understand. There's so much that is applicable. Right. If you are understanding the energy centers, the chakra system, you can apply that to your life, whether you're born in India or you're born in Milwaukee. All of these codes, all of these different aspects relate to each of us. Okay? So everything that I'm going to teach you today is something that you're just going to feel that you intuitively sort of always knew. We're just sort of putting a language to it, and hopefully it's going to start to help you connect the dots. Why I love this so much. And so me personally, I was brought up really not having any true connection to spirituality or to God. You know, I'm. I was raised Jewish, but I didn't really know much about Judaism or the depths of all of these spiritual teachings. And eventually, when I went to college, I started, like, just ravenously studying all different kinds of spiritual texts. And I was reading Thich Nhat Hanh, and I was reading the Four Agreements, and I was reading Wayne Dyer, and I eventually stumbled upon Jewish texts, and I was reading Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel, and I was reading Martin Buber. And I started finding all of this so satisfying and so delicious. And it's a long story, but I wound up in Jerusalem, and I thought I was going to be there for a few weeks, and I stayed in Jerusalem for three years, and I just literally sat and learned. And I learned enough to know how much I don't know, which I think is a good place to be. And I've continued to learn over the last 25 years. And my teacher, Rabbi David Aaron, is somebody who I've brought into my community many times. He was on the podcast recently. He actually comes into our community quite often. And I've continued to have the honor of learning with him for the last two and a half decades, which is really given me a map to understand how I can connect to God, to the Creator of this universe, how I can show up in my purpose, how I can manifest with ease, how I can always be awake for the miracles and for the synchronicities. So the first thing that I actually want to do is I want to start with a meditation. And then from this meditation I'm going to teach you how that you can start to fully integrate what I'm teaching you, what I'm sharing in this meditation, which is only going to be a few minutes. I'm going to then break it down for you so that you can feel the same way you feel in a meditation all day long. Wouldn't that be nice? Wouldn't it be amazing if that feeling of peace and well being and ease and divine flow and is something that you carried with you and it wasn't just reserved for moments where you're meditating or moments where you're walking on the beach, but wouldn't it be amazing if you could sustain that connection all of the time? Okay, so what we're going to do is we're going to start with this meditation and then I'm going to break it down and we're going to start to be able to see through these lenses all of the time. Okay, so the first thing that I want you to do, if you're not driving and if you are safe enough to close your eyes, I'd love you to just close your eyes and I want you to take a deep breath. It's free. Take another deep breath. I just want you to feel yourself arriving in this moment. And I want you, by the way, just to acknowledge yourself for making the time to just pause and have this sacred time. And as you sort of arrive in this moment, I want you to imagine that above you and all around you there's this golden light. Because truly you are surrounded by the divine light of the Creator of this universe. And it is radiant and it is infinite and it is fully loving. And this is the same light that set the stars in motion. It's the same light that calls the sun to rise. It's the same light that breathes your heart into rhythm. So I just want you to become aware that it's always been here, hidden in plain sight. And I want you to feel that it moves through you and it surrounds you and you are suspended in this reality, which is this awesome, vast, infinite light. And I want you to feel how this light just softly wraps you in this warmth, in this whisper of possibility. And it's not because you had to do anything to earn it. It's because this is the way you were designed. It's because the Creator of this universe is always giving. It's because this is how it is. And I want you to now understand that you are a vessel for this light. And it's almost as if you could picture that you are this like, luminous cup that is just allowing for an endless stream to pour through you. And with every breath, I want you to just feel how this vessel expands. And with every exhale, I want you to release any resistance. And with every exhale, you're releasing any need to control or any amount of fear or any doubt. And you're feeling as your capacity to be this vessel, to receive is widening. And you can receive love, abundance, creativity, well being. Because you are not separate from the source of creation, from the Divine, from God. You are an extension, right? You are a masterpiece. You are a piece of the Master. And I want you to hear that in your soul there is a whisper. And it is saying to the Creator of the universe, I open my heart to receive your light, so I may become a channel of blessing in this world. And I want you to picture that this light overflows from you and it just streams out through your being, through your voice, through your presence, and it's blessing everyone and everything in your path. So just stay here for just a few breaths and just feel this feeling, the divine order of things, the stillness, the certainty in this divine design. You never have to chase it, you only have to receive it. You are the vessel and God's light is the source. And together, this is creation. Every moment, every breath. When you're ready, you can open your eyes. How does that feel? Were you able to connect to that? Beautiful. So I want to give you an affirmation. The Creator of the universe is always giving an infinite stream. I open my vessel to receive this light and let it flow through me, to bless the world. I'm going to repeat that the Creator of this universe is always giving an infinite stream. I open my vessel to receive this light and let it flow through me, to bless the world. And now I'm going to give you an intention that you can hold for today. Today I choose to live as an open vessel of the divine, to trust in the Creator's perfect timing, to expand my capacity for love, blessing, abundance, and to remember that every desire is actually a call to reveal more light. So let's Break that down. So the core teaching, which we just were experiencing in that meditation, the core teaching is the idea of light and a vessel. So how was this word world created? We know that in the beginning, what is the first thing that God says? Let there be light. And what did science eventually catch up with? There was a big bang. There was this endless light. Rabbi Aarons, he has many books, but one of them is called Endless Light, right, Which we call the Ein Sof, the endless light. So it's very hard for us to fully grasp what infinite is. And it's hard for us to grasp this truth that there is this stream of this infinite light that is pouring into the world, and yet we see it all the time, right? When you look out at nature, I'm looking out now at this garden behind my house. The amount of energy that's pouring from the sun down into every one of these beautiful trees and flowers, it's receiving, right? The petals are receiving energy from the sun, right? And this sun, it's just so powerful that it casts its light across the earth and that energy from the sun gets transmitted and it turns into literally the food, the photosynthesis, the energizer that creates life. And so too, as a metaphor, right, we can start to really start feeling and having the awareness that all of the time there is this current, there is this infinite stream, and it is what is beating each of our hearts. And there's a part of all of us that is not hooked into the mind. The mind is moving and busy and very often it hijacks our whole day. But there is a part of all of us that is always connected to this higher wisdom. And that part of us knows and feels connected to something greater than ourself. That part of us can just move into flow. And that part of us is constantly being directed by this, like, divine gps. Okay, so what we want to understand, and this is really so powerful and so cool, and it really is, I think, a huge way of getting into alignment is understanding. What I said at the end of that affirmation is that every desire is a call to reveal more light. What I want you to understand is that we are here to actually have the true connection with desire that we came into the world with. And what that means is if you were to look at a baby, babies come into this world pure. And when they come into this world, their desire for life is just this unbelievable amount. They come into this world and they desire to connect, to play, to eat non stop. That is because we are designed to desire Life and to fully just be unbelievably, just ravenously in love with life and the fullness of desire with a capital D. And as we grow up, people around us often tell us that we need to shrink our desire to be reasonable or that our desire is selfish and so we should have less of it. But that is not understanding the very essence of what we just discussed, what we just started to move into. The truth of the matter is that when we realize that each of us is a vessel to reveal light, that we are one, we are someone, because we're some of the one, then when one tree in the garden is thriving, it's giving life to the rest of the garden. When one person in a family is thriving, it is giving life to the rest of the family. When somebody is walking in to Starbucks and they just fell in love and they're having the best day, it's reverberating into the room. So our idea is, what we want to correct is that we are meant to. To receive an infinite amount. And the intention is that we don't receive for the self alone, but that we receive in order to be a vehicle for that in the world. So when you want to manifest and to experience any beautiful blessing in your life, and let's say the reason that you want to have this incredible love in your life, this incredible abundance in your life, is so that you can be a catalyst for it. You can be a steward of it. You can be what is revealing more of that in the world. You are going to be in line with that manifestation. That is where you will start to see that become manifest in your life. So we are understanding that consciousness, that each of us is a vessel. And our job is actually to have an infinite amount of desire in order that we should be a vehicle to reveal that light in the world. Now, one of the things that is fascinating is to understand that the world, it's constantly conspiring for us. It is constantly moving everything in to wholeness. And we often, when we're coming from the mind, the mind thinks that it has to control. It has to do all of the things right? When really, if you think back to the most amazing things that have occurred in your life, they happened randomly. There was synchronicity. So when we set down this feeling like we have to do it, that is the moment that we are available to receive the miracle. Now, one of the things that is really so important in our own consciousness is the idea of certainty. And when we talk about certainty, what I mean is having the Certainty that everything we just talked about is truly how the world is designed. Because the moment you have the certainty that things are always working in your favor, that's the moment that you unhook from feeling the need to try to control. And when the fear and the doubt start to subside, you become available for the mystical because you are expecting it. Because every day you begin your day knowing that you're having a dialogue with God all day long, that you're always in the right place at the right time, because you are always being led. There is a river and it is taking you to exactly where you need to go. So one of the things that I shared recently, and I'm just going to share it with you now, the most powerful way to start the morning is to remember that life itself is a conversation with the Creator. Every person who crosses your path, every situation you encounter, it's not random, it's divinely orchestrated. When you wake up and say, God, let today be a dialogue between us. Show me the clues, the synchronicities, the sparks. Guide me to be a blessing, guide me to be of service. To reveal more light you will shift into a higher frequency. Suddenly the day is no longer ordinary. It becomes a sacred partnership with the infinite. You realize you're always at the right place at the right time, being led to where you're meant to be on your divine assignment. The mind is very self centered. The mind is very egocentric and it's constantly thinking about itself and it's constantly feeling as though it needs more so that it can feel like it's enough. So the mind is constantly telling you that you have to prove yourself, that you have to accomplish more, that you have to do, do, do, when really you're here to give the overflow you already have. The most impressive person in the room is the most loving. You are overly qualified to be a blessing in somebody's day, to be present, to be kind. And when we realize that we're not here to hustle because there's nothing outside of us that we need, you know, instead what we actually want to be is revealing. Being a vessel for what's already here, that is when everything starts to flow in our life. So one of the most amazing things that Rabbi Aaron taught me and I wrote about this in my book, by the way. My book came out in December, Abundant Ever after. But it comes out on paperback on 1111. So you could pre order the paperback or get the hardcover, whichever one you like. And I talk about this in the book. But essentially Rabbi Aaron Talks about how a radio is such a good metaphor to understand everything that we just talked about. The truth of the matter is that if you were to put a radio right here in this room and you were to turn it on, music would play. But the question is, where was that music? Before you turned the radio on, the music was already here. It was hidden in plain sight. But you didn't have a receiver that was turned on and tuned in, so you didn't hear it all day long. The music is already on and it's playing a love song. But if you're not tapped in, if you're not turned on, if your receiver is not on, you won't hear it, even though it's already around you. Hidden in plain sight. What's interesting about the radio metaphor is that when you turn on a radio, you could turn on many different stations, and people do. And depending on where you're tuned, that is what you will perceive. So if you turn on a rock station, you're going to hear a rock song. If you turn on a hip hop station, you're going to hear a hip hop song. If you turn on classical, you're going to hear classical. So this world is made of this infinite possibility. There's an infinite amount of timelines. There's an infinite amount. That's what infinite means, infinite. And what you're experiencing is where you're tuned. So when you wake up every morning and before you pick up your phone and before your mind hijacks you, when you wake up and you take a moment to connect with the creator of the universe, you take a moment to set the intention that you want to reveal light in the world today that you are asking the divine to pour through you. Because that light is always looking for a place to pour through. It's like the electricity is on full volume and it's looking for a light bulb to pour through. When we connect with that, that is when everything in our life starts to work. Everything in our life starts to flow. And we are constantly feeling a sense of purpose, because there are an unlimited amount of ways every day that we can be a blessing, that we can reveal light. And that feels truly amazing. So the first thing to know is that we are here to be that vessel. The thing about that inherently to understand is that this light is all around wanting to flow through us and everything in creation. And that is why it is actually very spiritual to have a big desire. Because the bigger your desire for love, the more love you can widen your heart to receive, the more you can Give to the world, the more abundance you can widen your capacity to receive, the more abundance you can steward into this world, the more creativity you can expand to perceive, the more creative inspiration, the more creativity you can pour into this world. So the essential lesson is the light and the vessel, which is why the word Kabbalah, literally, that is a Hebrew word, and that word means to receive. And so that is the mandate, the assignment is to be a receiver. So one of the best ways to become a receiver, to manifest the most miraculous synchronicities and blessings in your life, is to practice receiving. Because the greater your receiver, the greater you'll receive. And so one of the ways you can practice that is to make a hundred blessings a day. And what the. When the sages say that one way that you can make good on that is just to take a hundred seconds in a day, 100 moments where you receive fully. What that could mean is you set a timer on your phone for two minutes. That's even more. That's 120 seconds. And in those two minutes, and we'll do it right now, you practice receiving. So let's do it together, and I'll give you a real example of it. Okay, so I'm going to look at my time on my phone. Here we go. So I want you to close your eyes, and I want you to take the next 100 seconds and like a montage playing for you to see, like a movie, one after another. I want you to receive what is here for you in this moment to receive. You can see on this montage slides of the people in your life who you love. Receive it. What a gift. What a miracle. What a blessing to have those people in your life. Right now. You could receive that. Even the people who have passed on have left you with so much, are guiding you still here. Receive that. Feel it. The soul of your grandmother watching over you. The soul of your father. Whoever it is, receive it. Become aware of it. It's hidden in plain sight, but it's here. Receive. Practice receiving. Right now, just that you can see, that you can hear. And what are the amazing things that you will hear today? The clinking of ice in a cup. The birds. The sound of people you love coming home. What else can you receive in this moment? Just spend the next 40 seconds allowing yourself to receive. And right now, in this moment, receiving this feeling that you are swimming in an infinite field of possibility, that there is this divine light that is loving you into life every second, creating the heartbeat in your chest, guiding you, protecting you, giving you Intuition constantly moving you toward your highest, most realized timeline of your life. What does it feel like to practice receiving? And now let's move through the centers, the energy centers, the sphero, the chakras of your body. Just feel in the root of you where desire actually is ignited. Can you turn it up? Your desire for life, your desire to become all that you can be as a blessing in this world. Your desire for life, your desire for abundance, for creativity, for connection. Turn it up. Receive it. Feel it moving through you. And now come into that feeling, that center of your gut, that intuition. Turn it up. Receive it. What does it want you to know? Moving up into your heart. Open it wider. Receive the love, the unconditional love from the divine that is pouring into you all the time. You didn't have to earn it. It's just a gift. Feel the gratitude welling up. Receive. Feel your heart having love and compassion for this entire world, for people you've never met. Feel how powerful it is that you can literally generate love for the entire world. And it feels truly honest. Moving up into your throat. Receive it. What are you meant to say? What is the essence of your voice, your message, your conviction? What is a hell yes? What is a no? How can you move into alignment, receiving the words you speak that create your reality, and moving into the higher wisdom of this keter, this crown chakra, to perceive how everything is constantly divinely guided. There's an infinite amount of possibility. And you were here to be this vessel, tapped in, turned on and receiving. Now open your eyes. That's the practice. The light is on. We have to become the light bulb. And sometimes the light bulb, the filament, is broken. You can hear it shaking, that feeling when the bulb is broken. Or sometimes the light bulb is at 10 watts and it can be 75 watts. What if it was a thousand watts? What if it was an infinite amount of watts? This is the essence. This is the essence of Kabbalah. To receive, to be in the dance. And some of you are like, why is she rocking? Because the sages say that when you paint or you teach or you cook, when you're rocking like this, you are aware on some level that you are in flow, that there's something greater than you moving through you. That's what that is, by the way. So the choice is that every single day we can be in this divine conversation. And when we are, life makes sense, doesn't it? We become a vehicle for so much light, for so many blessings. And when you meet people, they're going to say, wow, you have great energy. What that means is just being around you. You made their day better. It reverberates. And we now know we have the science to know that we literally imprint on each other. And we imprint on our plants, we imprint on the animals around us, right? So if we don't turn on the radio, so to speak, if we don't have a practice every morning that connects us to this wisdom, the mind will take us totally off track. Because the amygdala, the mind was created looking for fear all the time because it thinks it'll protect you better if it's constantly showing you what's possible to fear. And on my podcast, we've done about a thousand episodes, and I've interviewed Deepak Chopra and Jon Kabat Zinn and Marianne Williamson, and every single person who I've interviewed, no matter whether they're Hindu or Buddhist or Jewish or Christian, the verdict is that we don't have to live in those lower dimensions of the mind. There's a way out. It's by setting an intention, connecting to the creator of the universe, and intentionally making a decision that our day is directed by something greater than that mind. Okay, now here's a piece from another coaching call inside my membership. We're going to talk about Libra, and we're going to talk about how do we manifest money and abundance, specifically through Libra energy. Also, speaking of money, on every single call, we're going to add a money moment, which I think is going to be fun. So we'll. We'll be doing some of that today, but let's just dive in. So we are now in the energy of Libra. So this energy right now is the energy of equilibrium. So Libra is actually the bridge that connects perfectly, soul and form, spirit and matter. Libra energy is harmony. Libra energy is aligning your outer world with your inner world. And people who are Libras, look, everybody is still their own person. And some people might have the potential to be this way, but might not be this way. But Libras are designed in their essence, okay? And they might have gotten hurt as children, and they decide not to be this way. Who knows what all the survival skills are that we adapt to. But in their essence, Libras are people who can really create a lot of balance in their families, in their work environments, for themselves. And if anyone has ever spent time with Esgi or Emma on my team, they are like that. It's just like they're always in balance. In fact, Libras are the Kind of people who like, their excitement is just. They're excited, but they're, like, cool. Not like, oh, my God, right? Like, I'm like that. I am. Like, the highs are so high, and the lows are like, oh. I'm like, all. I feel everything to the extent there's, like, no rhyme or re. Right. Libras are just like, great. And then something doesn't go well. They're like, that's fine. Like, they're just always in this sense of Emma. And as you're told, like, they're like, that's not a problem. Well, that didn't go well, but it was okay. That's amazing. That happened great. I'm glad it happened. But it's just like, they're very steady. Okay. So that's very good for me to have around, obviously. But if you want to step into Libra, which, guess what? We all. This is the beauty of going through the cycle of seasons. And by the way, having grown up my whole life in Florida and Los Angeles, California and Florida, there's something I have to say that you miss when you don't go through the seasons. Isn't there, like, there's a reason we like being in the seasons? Because we know there's a season to our own becoming. You don't have to be born a Libra to tap into this energy that's happening right now. And so that's the energy that for all of us, we can become more conscious of. So the assignment, the invitation for Libra is it's not just about looking balanced, it's about being congruent. And here's what it means. It means that your choices reflect the vibration of your soul. So if you were to zoom out and just take a little look at your life and all the different verticals, your relationship with your kids, your relationship with your work, your relationship with yourself, is there anything that you could choose that would put you more in balance? Like, I'm realizing for myself that one walk a day is not enough. I'm now doing two walks a day. I know, crazy, indulgent, but I'm like, I need two walks a day because I give a tremendous amount of energy away. And when I walk without my phone, it is so simple, it costs nothing. I feel so nourished by that. I just walk right home to myself. So I'm doing now two walks a day. And it's a little funny because I say to my kids, well, I won't be reachable. I don't have my phone. I'm not Bringing anything. And they're like, okay, Forrest Gump, bye. See ya. Like, I'm just gone. And then I come back. So what are the things that you could do to create more balance in your life? This is what this month provides for you. And if you do it this month, it sticks. There's more leverage right now for you to create that equilibrium. So a question you could ask yourself is, does my outer life mirror my inner truth? And is there any way that you could make that more so. So just take a second, and maybe there's something that comes up that could even require a little bit more of your time and attention, but maybe there's a headline of, you want to come back to this later today with a journal? Is there somewhere in my life where my outer life could mirror my inner truth? It's amazing how there are so many ways we could expand and feel even more in balance with our life, reflecting what feels right to us. Okay, so Libra energy is about restoring cosmic equilibrium. That's what it's about. And we are being asked to stop pushing also. Okay? Because you are not the conductor, right? You are part of the orchestra. God is the conductor, and we're not in balance when we're trying to push. That's going to take you right out of balance. Imagine the orchestra itself if every chair, you know, that's what they call, like, third chair, fourth chair, if everybody in the orchestra was trying to lead, it's going to sound terrible, right? But when you let go and you're being led by the conductor, then everything is in sync. We can have one leader, and we're following this rhythm, this divine order. Now there's harmony. Now everything's in balance, right? So where in your life can you let go of the grip so that you can align more with the flow? And that's when the beauty and the synchronicity comes in. And ultimately, if there's a thought in your head behind the scenes that says, I have to figure this out, that's going to keep you from the miracle, right? If there's a thought in your head which is like, oh, my goodness, there's this feeling of it's all on you. You're a little out of flow. You're out of balance. Because in order for you to be led, you're going to find your balance, right? I was just yesterday at the gym. My daughter and I have been going to the gym in the morning, and we just went today. But yesterday we were talking about how she's able to. Her legs are so strong. She's doing 110 pounds on her legs. Like, I'm only doing 50. I'm, like, really impressed. And she's also playing tennis. And the teacher was saying, she's doing really well in tennis. And I said to her, remember what was the Serena Williams movie with Will Smith, King Richard? Yeah. When she meets her coach, it's all about the stance. When she's in balance, when her feet are planted now, she can move. So really, I never thought about how tennis has so much to do with your legs being in balance, but it makes sense. Like, he's looking at her feet, not her arms. So when we let go of getting our hands in it all the time and we actually just do our part, which is to, like, stay rooted in the certainty that there is a river that's moving us now, we'll be led to where we need to be, right on time. And so that's. That's one of the pieces that's happening in this month. Now I want to talk about money, specifically as it corresponds to the energy of this month. So Libra this time. Right. The planets are real. It's true that they're in different places depending on the order of the calendar. So does anyone know what planet is sort of the biggest planet when it comes to Libra? Yes, that's correct. So Venus is all about beauty. So the energy of Venus is like love and beauty. And it doesn't chase, it just receives. So the magnetism is through, like, elegance. So I want you to just kind of move into that, like, inside of your being. Like, the more you feel this feeling of alignment and elegance, the more the money pours into your life. So in, in this season in particular, money is often a mirror. But in this season, money is the mirror of how balanced is your relationship with money, specifically when it comes to giving and receiving. How balanced is that? So let's look at that for a second. So when you over give, are you in balance? It's out of balance, so you're blocking yourself from the current. When you have that level of over giving, it's a resistance. Think about it. If your mantra, whether you know it or not, is, I got this, it's okay, I got this. So are you really letting God help you? You're like, I got this. So how's it going? Right? Like, it might even be going okay, but imagine how much better it could be. Right? I've seen people in my life work so hard and white knuckle, I'd be like, I've got this. I'M doing it and I'm like, there's so much more in escrow for you that you're not even letting in because you've got this, like, could you even imagine the life you are meant to be living? But you have to do it, you have to muscle all of it. It's on you. That's like really shutting out the miracle because we're not feeling in alignment with receiving it. And many people who are in my life, and I've been working this my whole life as well, are over functioners. And in that way we often see over functioners do a pretty good job of getting to a certain place and then they just hit that ceiling. Because even if you're doing real well functioning, there's still a cap on you and how much you can muscle. But the divine doesn't have a cap. Not on a budget, right? So we've got to feel safe receiving. We've got to feel safe letting ourself be supported. We have to change our relationship with that. So we have to stand in. I love these two words, graceful receptivity. Can you allow grace? Can you feel your system make space for it? And it's amazing when you change your relationship with this, how much grace pours into your life because you stop saying, I got this, I got this. I don't need the help, I don't need the help. How about it's here for you. Receive wants to give you. So remember that money itself is just not that interesting, right? It's not the goal, but what it is. It's a reflection of how open we are to receiving the Creator's abundance. And that is the goal. So I'm going to say that again, money itself is a little bit boring. It's not that interesting. But what is interesting is how receptive we are to receiving the Creator's abundance and being a walking generous fountain of that. That's interesting. That's actually what gets our soul really excited, to manifest that. Because wouldn't we want to contribute more? How good does it feel? The soul likes that. The soul is interested in that. It feels good to help, to provide, to steward, to feel like you've contributed like that, right? And to be in the flow that opens up people to their own flow. So we are really talking about moving from control to co creation and the way in which we convince ourselves that we're not really trying to control, we're just trying to show up and serve. It's a blurry edge there. You can serve, but you should be aware when you're trying to control it all because that's where now you're doing God's job. That's not your job to do. There's something bigger than you that knows what's best for all of the creatures. And then they also have an antenna to be able to like, be guided by that. So why hold so much that's not really serving? There's a certain amount that's serving and there's a certain amount that's actually codependency is control. We want to control everything and we're actually getting in the way of other people stepping into their power because we're trying to control so much. It's not our job. Right. We've all seen those really well meaning helicopter moms and there's that moment where they just went from really being of service to really blocking their children from who they're needing to become. So when we realize that our kids, they have within them their own greatness and that's what comes out of them when they're put in those situations. Right? Okay, so now let's talk about money a little bit more. So if the invitation of Libra is about this harmony, this equilibrium, we're moving out of control and we're moving into divine collaboration. So I want you to think that like, God's your business partner and you're just like, let's go, let's collab, like, let's go. Right? So that's a good business partner to have, right? And so you wake up every day and you're just like, okay, well you got most of the work, so that's on you, but that's fine. So on me is I've got to be in trust. I've got to make sure that, like, I'm available for these miraculous things and I'm really showing up in integrity and all of that. And as far as the money specifically, it's not about working harder, Right. It's about coming into that energetic symmetry. So you want to ask yourself, am I allowing money to flow as easily as I allow, let's say, love? Because you might have a subconscious value that's making you think that you can't allow money into your life. Right? And so are you allowing that? Here's another question. Do I give freely but resist being supported? Like, where could you change that? And the last question could be, do I equate ease with laziness? And do I equate luxury with guilt? And could you change that? So the three questions maybe to ask are, am I allowing money to flow as easily as I allow love. Do I give freely but resist being supported? Do I equate ease with laziness or luxury with guilt? So we remember that we're not ever receiving for the self alone. As we said before, we want to be a pipeline of this infinite light. It doesn't serve anyone anywhere for you to block the pipeline. You want to be the person who comes in the room. And people feel they have good ideas just being around you. They feel open to their own abundance just being around you. They feel that you're like an energizer, an expander, because you're so available to be a pipeline. So abundance is not a number, right? It's an atmosphere. It's the inner tone tuning into the infinite stream. Money loves beauty and calm. So when your energy feels chaotic, you're actually repelling abundance. When you feel elegant and spacious and aligned, you become irresistible to it. So that's where this feeling of balance and harmony and elegance becomes a really nice pipeline for abundance. So I'm going to send this to you. More to the point, probably Esky will send it to you, but I'll send it to her to send to you. Every morning during Libra season, you could wake up and say, today, I receive as much as I give. I am available and worthy of support, ease, and flow. That's a mantra. Okay? And then you can ask, where am I over giving or under receiving? And you can bring something into balance, whether it's allowing someone to help you. It could be saying no somewhere, saying yes to something. It could be raising your prices. Right? It could be inserting more nourishment for yourself into your day. But asking, where are you over giving and under receiving? It is safe to receive. It is good to let go of control and allow for that grace in your life. That is very. That is exactly what we're here to do. Okay, so another thing that's really interesting, because we talked about Venus and this energy of beauty. I like this a lot. It. It feels so activating to me because Libra, it's the month that, like, it loves aesthetics, it loves beauty and elegance and organization. And I think that there's something about this that we can do. Literally, there's a way you can do a little bit, and the doing could feel really good. For instance, you could decide to clean out your wallet or get one that's new that just is, like, beautiful. You could decide that before you pay bills, like you go onto your Wells Fargo or whatever, you just light a candle, just, like, create Beauty around money. You could write a little thank you note to God, like, thank you, Creator, for the endless flow of abundance that moves through me, bringing beauty to this vibration of money, right? And is there a way that you could add and enhance beauty every single day of this month? Like, if beauty is a muse, right? If beauty is a sign of harmony, where could you bring beauty into your life to attract more of that ease? I think it's a really fun assignment. And so I'm gonna. We're gonna put it in the Facebook thread ways that maybe you guys are adding a little, like, beauty to create that energy around money. And that just could be really. It could change things a little bit, right? We were trying to shift how we feel energetically whenever we are dealing with money. Like, what's the beauty there? In fact, you know, what you could do on your sales pages or even in your email footer note? What if you just put a quote that's beautiful. What if there's something beautiful just because that every time you're doing business and maybe you switch it up like once a month you change the quote, but what if there's a way that you're just creating beauty, Right? I remember when I interviewed one of our amazing students. She has an incredible platform all about homeschooling. It's called the Gentle Feast. And she said, yeah, we start our day looking at beauty. When we homeschool, we look at Van Gogh or we listened to Mozart. And I was like, swooning over that. I'm like, what an amazing way to begin is just simmering in beauty, right? So one thing my friend Casey means gave me this roomy deck, and it's a. It's a deck of poems. So she said, every day, just read a poem before you start work and have it on your desk. So I, like, come. Isn't that such a cool deck idea? So I come down and I like, pull one of the cards and it says, like, here's one. And it says, the impossible made possible. And then there's a book of all these roomy poems that tells you, which page do you go read the poem. And because. Just because for its own sake, right? It's like we're holding so tightly, right? And when beauty comes in, it feels good. It changes the vibration. You know, I took my kids to the Modern Museum of art, the MoMA, and just walking around the museum, it just feels good. It's just beautiful. It feels rich. Looking at beauty makes you feel rich. We were just walking this morning to the gym and, like, listening to the birds and looking at all the greens and the different kinds of birds, and it just. Beauty is richness. It's beautiful, it's in balance, it's gorgeous. Okay? Another thing to think about is embodying this energy this month in Libra is maybe just think about moving a little bit slower so you catch your balance. Sometimes we're tripping over ourself, right? And maybe thinking about having the intention that you're speaking with grace. You're just speaking with a little bit more grace. You manifest more when you're in that state, right? Because you're not in urgency. You're. You're in that place where you already have the. The feeling of bounty. And that's what beauty does for us. It makes us feel bountiful just, just looking at it, just hearing it. You can also. We'll do this right now, okay? Just close your eyes for a minute and we're going to imagine this beautiful golden scale, this Libra scale, okay? And you are actually perfectly on this scale. And just, just imagine that every part of you is in balance and nothing in. Nothing about you is tipping the scales because there's just alignment. There's just alignment. And what you are feeling when you're in alignment is that you give equal to what you receive. Just feel that in your being. Feel that in your body. You give equal to what you receive. And then the affirmation is, God, I receive this abundance so I can share your light. Because this is the true vessel of wealth. Receiving for the sake of sharing. I receive and share, and I am in balance. And I receive again and there is this divine flow. Money flows to you in harmony and grace. And you can just say to yourself, I receive with joy, I give with love, and I live in divine balance. I receive with joy, I give with love, and I live in divine balance. And the intention again is to allow this money to move through you like music, elegant and balanced and full of light, so you can open your eyes.
