Speaker 1 (00:08):
Hi everyone, It's Amanda Rieger Green. Welcome to December. Here
we are at the close of the year. Let it
be confusing, that is the message. I know that sounds
confusing even when I say that, but there is a
lot of confusion this month. You may feel like you're
pulled in multiple directions and you're just scratching the surface,
(00:32):
or the answer is just out of reach. Let it
be out of reach. Let it be confusing. The clarity
will follow if you allow the confusion to filter through
your system, through your body, through your mind, through your energy,
feel through your emotions. This is a great month to
really pay attention to all aspects of yourself. And when
(00:55):
I talk about that, I've practiced this for a long time,
very highly aware and fine tune to my thoughts, my emotions,
my physical body, and my energy. That's taken practice. And
am I always aware of it? Heck, no, I'm not.
I'm a human. I'm messy. We all are. But the
(01:17):
more conscious and cognizant I become of Oh are those
racing thoughts? Am I thinking the same thing over and over? Or? Oh,
my goodness, are emotions going? Are chemicals being released in
my body? Emotions? Are chemical responses to our brain frequencies.
When we're thinking something, we send signals and these chemicals
get released in the body. And then there's the physical body.
(01:40):
You know, are my shoulders tents? Is my jaw tight?
Is my lower back hurting? Am I slumped over my computer?
I can notice my physical body. And then there's my
energy field. What am I sensing out in the field?
What am I sensing around me? And of course that's
much more new Last and Fine Tune. Do not get
(02:02):
overwhelmed by this or confused by it. Just no single
one out Ooh, I'm thinking the same thought. I'm having
the same dialogue with myself over and over. Is it healthy?
Is it the truth? Is it loving? Is it kind?
Check it out? And if you can observe that, then
you have the opportunity to shift it. If we can
(02:25):
shift our thoughts, our beliefs, that's what we have control over.
And in a world where it can feel like we
don't have control over much, we do have control over ourselves.
So paying attention. If it's your emotions, if you're familiar
with your emotions, this is a good time to say,
what does that feel like right now? And in my podcast,
(02:48):
Last month, we talked about emotions and needing to get
an emotional chart sometimes to be able to identify what
an emotion is. I've used an emotional chart for a
long time to understand what I'm actually feeling, because feelings
are nuanced. That's back to that word. It's a nuancee
kind of month. That's why I'm using it. And what
(03:10):
we feel is an important factor in our manifestation, in
our point of attraction. So what we're thinking is one thing,
but what we're feeling is like the jet fuel. And
as I mentioned in my podcast last month, I did
a two part series on wellness with my client and
executive at Amazon, Sarah Peterson, and she mentioned the how
(03:30):
we feel app So that's a great resource. Get an
emotional chart out and be like, Oh, that's irritation, Ooh
that's disillusionment. Find the feeling And do you have to
do this all the time? No, But when you're feeling heavy.
We usually notice when we're feeling heavy, what is the heaviness?
Is it loneliness? Is it sorrow? Is it sadness? Is
(03:52):
it grief? Is it pain? See if you can name
it or Also, there are so many forms of joy jubulation, delight, splendor.
Those are words we don't always use in our rhetoric.
Add them into your vocabulary. I love words. You all
know that the more you can enhance your vocabulary, especially
(04:14):
around yourself, whether it's your thoughts or your emotions, the
more intelligent and informed and self aware you will become.
You will feel that way, and you will see things
through a more enlightened and illuminated and conscious lens. Now,
the physical body, the physical body, it's so biologically intelligent.
(04:37):
Pay attention to it. When there's an ache, there's a pain,
there's a crunchiness. That stuff is always signaling something to us.
Usually I find that when I am in some sort
of physical disease discomfort, my body is signaling something to
me to pay attention to. That may be mentally or
(04:58):
emotionally or even spirit rually. I am not able to
process or recognize or hear or comprehend and the physical body.
Let me just give you a little roadmap, and an
easy roadmap. We're going to do this simply. In the
Eastern world, the left side of the body is the
receptive side, so the receiving the intuitive, and that correlates
(05:22):
with the right brain. Okay, So the right brain signals
the left side of the body. The right side of
the brain is the intuitive, the feminine, the creative, the compassionate,
and nurturing, the psychic side. That's that side of the brain.
The right side of the physical body is what exerts energy.
It's deliberate, it's action oriented, it's masculine. It gives out.
(05:46):
That correlates with the left hemisphere of the brain, which
is connected with practicality, logic analysis, very linear. We need
both sides of the brain, we need both sides of
the body. Let's say your shoulder is bothering you lately.
I've had some shoulder stuff in my left shoulder behind
my shoulder blade and it kind of tracks up to
(06:08):
the left side of my c spine my neck, and
I've been working through this and working to heal it. I've,
of course, I've gone to a chiropractor, I've done massage,
there are numerous things that I've done. But also on
the left side of my body, that's the feminine side
of my body, the receptive side of my body. I
can be very driven, deliberate, masculine. I know these things.
(06:31):
So there's something in my feminine side that is saying, Hey,
I'm not getting enough nurture or TLC or love. I'm
crunchy over here. If you think about the shoulder, the shoulder,
we carry the weight of the world on our shoulders.
The neck. The neck is brilliant. It's also part of
the throat chakra. The right side of my body and
(06:51):
the right side of my neck. Sometimes it really hurts
to turn my head with using my neck all the
way to the left side. So it's tense, it's tight.
There's something in my perspective. The next signals perspective. It
signals flexibility. There is something I am intuitively not receiving
and I'm being inflexible around And guess what, y'all, I've
(07:14):
I have done a deep dive into this stuff and
I have had breakthroughs and awareness and healing. And I
will tell you this this next stuff. It occurred for
the first time in twenty fifteen. I had just finished
yoga teacher training and it was just before we wrapped
up our training and we were graduating, and it was
a six month deal. It was very intensive, it was
(07:36):
working full time. It was illuminating and transformative. It was
a beautiful time in my life. But just before we
did our teach back, our teacher teach backs and had
our final yoga celebration whatever it was at the time,
I woke up and I could not move my neck.
And it was the right side of my neck, and
it was completely shut down, like I had injured myself.
(07:58):
And there was nothing I could track back to, like
doing you know, a shoulder stand or a headstand or
a tripod. I couldn't track back to doing anything that
had tweaked my neck. But it was as if I
had a massive injury and I had done something horrible.
It was painful. I couldn't move it. So I remember
for our last teach back and our graduation, I mean
(08:20):
I was stiff. I was stiff as a board. I
was in pain. But what I'll tell you is this,
in that phase and in that timeframe, I had worked
through my voice. I was still working in the corporate
world in healthcare. I'm also doing a two hundred hour
yoga teacher certification where I'm learning to become more flexible
(08:40):
and fluid and teach and use my voice. All of
my spiritual gifts had been coming through pretty rapidly at
that point, so using my voice as a yoga teacher
and instructing people, you know, paying attention to the body,
the breath, all of the things associated with yoga. I
was using a different part of my throat, my voice,
(09:00):
my throat chakra, and the feminine side was coming through.
And that is not unlike what is happening right now
with me, which has been really interesting, where I am
getting new messages, new insights from guides of mine that
I have not been connected with. And if you know
me and you've worked with me or listened to me
(09:21):
for a little bit of time, I talk to my
soul and I talk to God all the time. I
implore my soul to connect with me, to connect consciously
and hire and grow me and evolve me. I give
things to God. It is a lifestyle for me. It's
a non negotiable for me. But I have not been
working with my angels, my guides, and my troops on
(09:45):
the other side. I talk to my soul a lot
and to God, but I forget that I have this
choir of support. We all have a choir of support. Yes,
we've got our loved ones on the other side. And
you know, I've been talking to to my mother. Of course,
you know I've lost her this year. I talked to
her all the time. But what's really strange, And I'm
(10:06):
going to share this with you, and I'm I can't
believe I'm saying this out loud, because I still I'm
like even judging myself as I say it. But I'm
going to just remove the filter and say what I'm
feeling and thinking. And when I've been talking to my
mom for the last like two months, when I say
oh hey Mom, Hey Mom, immediately when I say hey Mom,
(10:28):
I'll say, oh, hey Mom, and hey Medatron. Medatron is
an archangel who if you look in the Bible, Enoch
ascended and it is written in multiple scriptures, in multiple
texts that Enoch became Medatron. Medatron is the great purveyor
of wisdom, the teacher of teachers. Medatron comes through in
(10:50):
radiant light that is often very sacred and geometrical. Medtron's
energy comes through in all sorts of ways. But I've
never really talked to Meta. My mom would talk to
archangels all the time and gave me a whole lot
of education around them. But I'm like, oh, Mom, that's
your thing. I believe I know they're there but I've
got my soul, I've got my higher self, I've got God.
(11:11):
I'm good. I'm good, you know. And I talked to
people's higher cells all the time, so like I've got
them too. We're good and you know. And I'll talk
to my grandparents and my loved ones on the other side.
But I'm not joking the past two months and my prayers,
and when I'm talking to my mom, I'd be like
mom oh mom in Metatron like it rolls off my tongue.
I don't know where it came from. But what I
do know is there was this call to say, hey,
(11:35):
I'm here trying to work with you. This is Metatron.
I'm here trying to work with you, but you need
to ask me why are you so afraid? And that
was the big question for me, is why was I afraid?
And I just had this revelation. It was like, well,
I don't know what people are going to think of
me if I say I'm talking to Metatron. So if
I am being very straightforward about what my fear was
(11:58):
is I'm worried about what people think about me and
if they think I'm kind of wacko and Cray Cray
and that Metatron is too far out there because we
can talk about the consciousness and our soul and God
and the divine and maybe the angels and our loved ones.
But if I say I'm talking to Metatron, is that
really true? Or am I making this up? See? I
do this stuff too. I know you all know what
(12:19):
I'm feeling. I mean, you may not be talking to Metatron,
or you may be. And I know there's lots of
you out there that do connect with archangels very clearly
and ascended masters and guides. And I am excited because
into the first of the year, we're going to do
a deep dive into archangels, ascended masters and their energies
and how we can work with them. So a little
preview into twenty twenty four that is coming, and hopefully
(12:43):
we'll get to talk to some people who've been doing
this for a while and have clear messages to deliver
for us. But the same way we see signs and
get messages, that's the way that these messengers, these guides
come through for us. My husband and I after Thanksgiving
(13:07):
got to take a little trip to Sedona, and I've
been to Sedona a handful of times, and this trip
was so peaceful. It was organic, it was peaceful, the
weather was beautiful, the crowds weren't super crazy and abundant.
It was just right, you know, it was just right
(13:28):
and it flowed. But we were out on a couple
of hikes and I kept getting these very clear messages
and they were from Metatron, and I still kept saying,
it's not Metatron, that's my higher self. Oh no, I'm
just getting a sign. I'm getting a sign from my
higher consciousness. I mean, I kept denying it and pushing
it aside and pushing it aside, and then finally I
(13:50):
was like, okay, I swear I see Metatron's energy. Like
I could see these orbs and these rays of lights
shooting out, captured them on my phone and I showed
my husband because I was like, can you see that
over there? And he was like, well, it's beautiful, but
I don't see the rays of light. And I'm like,
there are rays of light. You don't see them. They're blue,
and then there's an orb and you know, I'm and
(14:13):
he obliges me, but he also doesn't dismiss me in
any of that. He's always like, well, if you say that,
you're seeing that, I believe you. You know, I just can't
see them, but I'm like, let me take a picture.
And sure enough, I took a couple of pictures, and
there's these gorgeous rays of light. And I sent them
to a dear friend of mine, my friend Andreas, who
is very aware of auras and energies and light and
(14:33):
also very familiar with the archangels, and I sent these
to him and he's like, oh, there's Metatron. And then
he's like, and there's jo Fiel, Like, that's Jofiel's energy,
and Joefel is the angel. If you've heard me talk
about this, that showed up for my mother, and that
my mother said she clearly saw when she was transitioning
to the other side. And again she knew the angels
(14:54):
and their energies and their messages and their stories in
a really really evolved and transcended way, a very mystical way.
She had a mystical relationship with her angels and her guides.
And now I'm realizing, oh my gosh, it's there for
me too. It's there for you too as well. And
this month, I'm going to talk about the numerology in
(15:16):
a minute, and I'm going to talk a little bit
about the astrology because I want to give you a
roadmap and I'll give you some tools. But this month,
when you're feeling confused, when you're feeling uncertain, instead of
trying to change it, sit with it for a minute
and see if you can see what's going on mentally,
or see what's tapping in for you emotionally what you're
(15:37):
feeling or physically, what's happening in your body, or if
you're energetically aware, what are you sensing around you? Can
you feel or see your aura, can you see energies
or you getting downloads and insights? You know, is it
more energetic? See if you can clarify that for yourself,
(15:58):
because through the confine fusion, clarity will appear. And as
it relates to the numerology, this month we are in
a one universal month in numerology. The way that I
get that is December is the twelfth month of the year.
One plus two twelve reduces down to three, so that's
(16:18):
the energy of the three. Twenty twenty three is a
seven year. Seven plus three equals ten, which reduces down
to one. So we are in a one month as
we close out the year, there's the confusion because we're
in a beginning initiating energy. The one is about initiation,
(16:39):
It's about pioneering new beginnings. It's about leaderships, it's about
boldness and courage. It's about being the leader of your
own life, paving your own way. It's also the one
is the I am I am fill in the blank.
So this is a month of initiation, Yet we are
(17:02):
in a time of closure. We are at the end
of the year, and some of the things astrologically also
reflect change, not so much closure, but a time of reviewing, revising, revisiting.
We have a mercury retrograde this month. Mercury retrogrades on
the twelfth of the month, and it's retrograde in Capricorn
(17:24):
and then it'll back up into Sagittarius. What does that mean?
While it's retrograde in Capricorn, we are reassessing, redefining, reformulating
our goals, our plans, what it is that we want
to do, and what's confusing about that? The energy of
the one in numerology says, these are the plans I'm making.
(17:45):
I am stepping out with this new goal, this dune direction.
It wants to charge forward. Yet mercury. So the astrological
code is saying no, no, no no, reevaluate your plans,
and the numerology is saying charge forward. So the astro
numero code is creating a push pull energy in the field.
(18:06):
So guess what it's going to create confusion. I want
to charge forward, but I'm being pulled backwards. You know,
I've set this appointment with this person that I've been
trying to get a hold of, and this is going
to advance my career. Or I'm going to be able
to have this discussion with a friend of mine and
I'm going to get some clarity around this this family situation.
(18:27):
And then all of a sudden they reschedule or they
flake out, such as the nature of mercury retrograde. You know, miscommunications,
plans being waylaid, delays, confused again, confusion. You got to
like it. Just it's like se la VI live and
let live, let it go. If an appointment gets canceled,
if there's a mixed miscommunication or a glitch in your calendar,
(18:51):
your day, something you planned and even if you've worked
hard towards it and it doesn't pan out, or someone
needs to reschedule or some one says something and it
hacks you off, or you know, you get an email
from someone that wasn't intended for you and it says
something ugly about you. You know, we've all either done
(19:12):
that or been there reciprient. And I'm not saying we've
said something ugly, but you know we've sent an email
to someone we intended for someone else and it's either
highly embarrassing or oh shoot, I just put my foot
in my mouth energy. That's mercury retrograde, you know. And
the best thing to do is own up to it
pretty darn fast. Is just say, oh my gosh, that
was not intended for you, or wow, I said that,
(19:32):
and you know what, I was a little too quick,
I was a little too sharp with my tongue. That
wasn't very nice to me. That's not your stuff, that's mine.
The quicker and more resilient you can become and less
confusing in what you're doing. So, yes, there's that confusion internally,
but if you can be clear externally, own your stuff,
(19:53):
clarify your path, whatever you're doing, taking action, laying a foundation,
that's the kind of month it is. It's more found
national than it is extroverted. Or oriented where you will
feel things come together fully. Things may feel like they're
just about to click or just about to fit together,
and then there's a setback. And one of the things,
(20:15):
one of the things with the one is self doubt
because there's a lot of bold, courage and momentum there
and the one can really get disillusioned or doubt itself
when things don't pan out. So when you feel doubtful,
when you are worrying, when you are overly concerned with
(20:37):
your own success, your own happiness, your own circumstances. And yes,
life can be tough. Life is tough. A lot of times.
Life is hard. It's the holidays that we're being pulled
in so many different directions. It's also the end of
the of a very immense year. And that's really what
(20:58):
this year has been about. Seeking, searching, going deeper, understanding better,
more fine tuning who we are, why we are. It's
been an introspective year. Next year, not so much relish
this time. Let the holidays be what they are. It's
a reset button. But it's not just about being lazy
(21:22):
or not showing up, not getting things done or accomplished.
It's more about letting the confusion, the uncertainty, the self doubt,
the insecurities, the anxiety. This can be a very anxious month,
by the way, because of the push pull and the
astrology and numerology and some other factors. Letting that work
(21:46):
through you, and I want to talk about anxiety for
a minute. I find, and this doesn't apply to everyone
and every circumstance, but I find more often than not,
anxiety is usually the body trying to raise in vibration,
trying to knock us down or take us out of
the game, or cripple us. And that's how anxiety can feel.
(22:06):
It can feel crippling. I had someone reach out and say,
I've got crippling anxiety. What do I do? And I said, Hey,
that is your body, your biological and physiological body, trying
to move dense, heavy matter out of your cells, your DNA,
your organs, your muscles, your joints. It is trying to
flush out and filtrate because it moves from the solar
(22:28):
plexus through the heart, through the throat, and it gets
stuck in our throat. When we're anxious, sometimes we can't breathe,
we can't speak. Our lungs and our heart get incapacitated
and full and overwhelmed. We all know what that feels like.
And sometimes it can be a full on panic attack,
or it can just be unsettling. Breathe through it and say,
oh my gosh, body, you're flushing stuff out. Breathe and
(22:51):
push it up and through you sit still with it.
Let the confusion, let the uncertainty, the worry, the doubt,
anything that is coming up for you, the fear, let
that stuff process. Give it time, and also ask your guides.
Say hey, guides, whatever I'm going through, I need your help.
(23:14):
Call in the big guns. That's what I've been saying.
I'm calling in the big guns. You know. Yes, I've
got God or my higher power, you know, the prime
creator of the universe. Yes, I've got my higher consciousness
and all these other aspects of myself in multi dimensional
time that I often work with and communicate with, all
the times, parallel lifetimes, future versions of me, past versions
(23:36):
of me, all the things. I guess this is so
normal to me. But I have not been asking my
guides to help me, and they've been not just knocking
on my door. I mean, who just goes to bed
at night and says, hey, mom, I miss you. Will
you show me a sign? Who says hey, Mom and Metatron.
I mean, it's just been rolling off of my tongue
(23:57):
and I say it, of course with the voice in
my head, my inside, but it's like mom and Metatron.
So I'm saying this because I'm like, oh my gosh,
I'm kind of afraid to say this, but I'm actually not.
It's my truth. Call in your guides, ask them to
reveal themselves to you. I was just talking to a
client earlier today, a client who I've worked with for years.
(24:18):
We do package sessions, which is the way I love
working with people. I love new clients. I love meeting
new people, you know, that is something I get to do.
But my package clients, the people I work with routinely
and who really are dedicated to their personal and spiritual
journey and want to grow and evolve, Those are the
ones that light my fire because I get to witness
(24:41):
their growth, be a part of the facilitation and hold
the space. But I get to see them thrive, and
I get to see them thrive through pain, through beautiful
stuff to tap into their intuition, their consciousness, their truth,
their meaning, and also start to work with their body,
their mind, their emotions, and their energy field in conscious
and remarkable ways. So I'm talking to this client. She said, Hey, Amanda,
(25:05):
you know you told me to really pay attention to
signs this month, little stuff coming through. Well, she had
been kind of seeing this guy, okay, and this is
this whole thing with a turtle, all right. So this
turtle kept coming up and they were making jokes about turtles,
and then they were at this festival thing and a
turtle came through and they were playing these games, you know,
(25:26):
where you throw the thing over the turtle and there's
different animals and whatever. Well, anyway, he stole one of
those turtles and gave it to her. But anyway, short
story long, and to not reveal too much. Essentially, he's
a really cool guy. He's a lot of fun, but
I'm not really sure he's mature enough or serious enough
for her. And he's a little bit flaky and she's
not a flaky gal. And she's like, gosh, when is
my person coming? And then she goes to work the
(25:49):
next day and these these people come into work and
they start saying, oh my gosh, do you have little turtle?
This and that. They started talking about turtles, and then
turtles appeared on her computer screen. When she was, you know,
in the advertisements about something, some turtles appeared. So it
was like turtles were showing up everywhere. And she said, Amanda,
I mean hello, like, I guess this isn't the guy,
(26:10):
but I keep getting these turtle signs and I'm giving
you this specific example because it was comical, but it
was amazing too, and it was all tracking with her
energy field. I was like, this is not about this
guy and your longevity of this relationship or where it's
going or what it's meant to be and is he
(26:31):
the one? And why isn't he this all the things
that we go through, right, I was like, the turtle
is trying to work with you. Turtle energy, turtle spirit animal.
You have a guide that is a turtle that's trying
to show up. And I know you're probably laughing, like, wait, wait,
you're just talking about Metatron, this archangel as a guide,
and now you're talking about a turtle. But that's why
(26:54):
I'm sharing this with you. All is our guides. And
when I've worked with guides in the past, they show
up in a multitude of forms. They can be someone
who is like a wise woman, a sage. It can
show up like a wizard. It can show up as
someone a loved one you're familiar with. A guide can
show up. Guides can be animals. There's so much energy
(27:17):
in animal medicine and animal totems. When I see certain animals,
I'm like, oh wait, what is that message? What's coming through?
What energy is this showing me? But what was coming
up for her is turtle medicine, turtle energy. There's a
guide that is delivering messages to her that is about
turtle medicine, which is about yes, you guessed it. Slow
(27:37):
and steady wins the race. It's about patience and perseverance.
It's about being true to your own path. And if anything,
this woman, this client is true to her own path,
has become more true to her own path over the
course gosh of the last three or four years, but
more specifically and in a more grounded, deliberate it way,
(28:01):
over the course of this year and everything in her energy.
Feel This month denotes take one step at a time,
be present, show up for what's showing up for you.
Get out of the past, don't worry about the future.
Be here now. What's showing up. Now, what can you do? Now?
What action can you take? Now? That's all Turtle Energy
(28:22):
and Turtle Medicine. So she has this guide and I
told her to I said, you got to start calling
in your guides. I'm calling in the troops. You got
to call in the troops. And then we started laughing
because she was like, oh my gosh, this makes sense.
And of course she was disappointed that it wasn't about
the guy, and I was like, that's just how spirit works,
That's how these signs work. They're not logical, they're confusing.
(28:42):
And guess what else. We need help. We need people
to reflect this stuff back to us. So who are
your people who you can share this wacky stuff with?
Because it's wacky and it's fun and it's amazing, but
it's meaningful and it makes sense. The codes, the energies,
the signs, they are all there for us to respond
to and work with. And if a turtle shows up
(29:04):
twenty five times for you, you better be looking up and
working with Turtle Energy and Turtle Medicine. I don't care
if it's a rabbit, a fox. If you see a
heart a bunch of times, a peace sign, a coin,
on the ground a song on the radio that replays.
I mean, I know it's Christmas music, so I've heard
a lot of George Michael. Last year I gave you
My Heart. Although I watched a really create Christmas movie
(29:26):
called Last Christmas, and I cried last night at the
end of it. It's really sweet. If you haven't watched
it, it has the girl Denarius Targarian. She's in it. I
can't think of her name, but anyway, I watched it.
It was really good. So yes, there's okay. I'm not
talking about the Christmas songs that play on repeat, although
I have Christmas songs that have meaning for me and
my husband and I. On the way home for Thanksgiving,
(29:47):
we're talking about my dad and then oh, Christmas Tree
came on. But O tannanbamb which is what he loved,
which is you know, O Tannan bomb. I'm not going
to sing it for you and hurt your ears, but
it came on and I was like, oh my gosh,
this is my dad's favorite Christmas song and we had
just been talking about him. So look for the signs.
But I also want you to take it one step
further and say, hey, guides rope your guides into that
(30:10):
the signs that you see, not just your loved ones,
not just your higher power God, not just your soul.
Ask your guides, start connecting with and communicating with your GUIDs.
What are you afraid of? What are you afraid of?
Why not ask them? We can use all the help
we can get so with this month. And remember I
(30:36):
said Mercury is retrograde in Capricorn, so it's all about redefining,
reassessing our goals and our plan of action. There's that,
then it will back into Sagittarius later in the month.
And when Mercury moves into Sagittarius retrograde, it's saying we're
reevaluating our beliefs. What do I believe is possible? What
(30:59):
do I believe? Who do I believe in? Why do
I believe this? What are my motivations? And when you
get confused this month, when you feel uncertain, when there's
that push pull energy, Yes, you can practically do what
I was talking about. You going to assessing your thoughts,
checking in with your emotions, see what's going on in
(31:21):
your physical body ground, and be in tune with your
energy field. But another practical place to go with this,
if you don't know the direction you're going in, or
things are not quite fitting and you can't quite figure
out or formulate your plan of action to get where
you're wanting to go. I want you to check your motives.
Say what is my motivation? What is motivating me towards
(31:44):
this goal these actions? Is it money? Is it romance?
Is it health? Is it freedom? It doesn't matter what
it is. It just matters that you ask. So you're
getting clear on your why, which is very sagittarius, by
the way, but you're clarifying your beliefs. So this mercury
(32:05):
retrograde is highly fortuitous, frustrating, albeit fortuitous absolutely because it's
taking the end of the year and it's creating all
this initiation energy with the numerology, the one moving forward
getting clear you're mighty, I am, And then mercury retrograding
and some other aspects that we have going on astrologically
(32:28):
in the sky are saying hold on, reevaluate your weight,
your meaning, your motivations, and for me, motivations. Let me
just give you a clear example. If in my day
I have a busy day ahead of me. Let's say
I have a ton of stuff on my plate. I'm
really busy. It's back to back appointments, clients, engagements, commitments.
(32:51):
In the morning, I can wake up and I can
be like, oh my gosh, I have such a busy day.
Oh my gosh, I have so much of my plate.
Oh my gosh, how am I going to get all
through all this? And then immediately I feel that I
I'm basically self sabotaging because my whole attitude is like, ugh,
it's going to be so busy. Well, I know how
to flip that. I do that? Did I did that?
This morning? I said, Oh my gosh, Amanda, Yes, you
(33:14):
have an abundant day at a busy day, but oh
my gosh, you get to talk to this person, this person,
you get to start your day out with pilates, you
get to record this podcast, get and you like to
do all the things that are on your plate today,
you do them well, you show up, Holy, you genuinely
enjoy all of the people you're interacting with. You get
(33:34):
to do this podcast. Oh my gosh. So all of
a sudden, I shifted my outlook. But then I also
got very clear with my motive for the day. Why
was I stressed that I had a busy day because
it just was like, it's a full day and oh
my gosh, I'm gonna be exhausted, Oh my gosh, I'm
gonna be so tired. So my motivation was just ugh.
(33:56):
It was getting through. And so what did I do.
I clarified my motivation and I SAYD but I want
to enjoy myself. I want to have energy, I want
to be clear. I want to help people. I want
to show up for the people who show up for me,
and to be able to find enrichment, find enjoyment. My
motivation is ease. My motivation is abundance, My motivation is fun.
(34:20):
My motivation is also accomplishment, fulfillment. So I just started
rewriting not only my attitude and my outlook. I clarified
the motivation. And before the motivation was ugh. I got
to get through this day. And there was nothing on
paper about my day that said ugh to me. When
I got clear about it and when I clarified that
(34:41):
why and that motivation, that shifted my belief, my attitude,
my energy, field, my heart and soul, and it's been
an amazing day. It's been a really productive, fulfilling, successful, abundant, easy,
it's been an easy day. It's been enjoyable. It's been
more abundant than I could have humanly imagined. And if
it would have been, oh, I got to get through
(35:02):
all this stuff today, it's going to be a long day.
That's how it would have been. So check your attitude,
check your motives, check your why, reorient, realign it. Use
this mercury retrograde to really clarify your voice, your emotions,
your body, your body language, and your energy. That's a
big setup for twenty twenty four. All right, I want
(35:25):
to give you a few crystal recommendations and some other
tools for the end of the month. I would definitely
work with a couple of crystals. If you haven't worked
with crystals before, They're a great way to kind of
bump up and inspire and realign your energy field because
they do not they're not watery like we are. They're fixed.
(35:46):
Their energy is fixed. It is consistent, and it transmits
and emits energy that we can align with. So I
would work with bloodstone. Bloodstone is a greenstone and it
has kind of these red veins in it, so it
like it has looks like veins, but it's it's a beautiful,
deep green with the red in it. Bloodstone is a
(36:11):
heart chakra stone and a root chakra stone, so it
connects with the energy of the heart. Organic unconditional love
is a sense of wholeness and fulfillment. It's a very
organic stone, so it connects us with just being natural being,
human being rather than human doing. And the blood stone
(36:34):
in it, the red in it, which is connected with
the root chakra. It's like these it's like jasper that
comes through it. It's a red jasper in the green stone.
The blood piece, the red piece is all about primal energy,
primal force, vitality, which connects with the energy of the one.
In numerology, it's about connecting with our primal energy, our desires,
(36:54):
our instincts, our motivation, our motivations, our encouragement. So the
bloodstone creates a sense of grounded action. It creates a centering,
an organic centering from the heart, so we move more
organically and easily through our heart. The stone also really
helps with anxiety, by the way, it's a great stone
for you know, confusion and anxiety. But the bloodstone, like
(37:18):
it revitalizes our instincts, our nature, our motivation, So that's
a great stone to work with. Another stone that I
think is wonderful for this month is fluorite, and fluorite
has different hues in it. It's usually purple green, clear,
and sometimes it can be yellow. Actually have some yellow
(37:40):
fluorite sitting in front of me, which is quite wicked
and beautiful. And when I say wicked, I just mean
it's like wicked cool like I'm from Boston, not wicked
like scary dark energy. It's just wicked coal because it's
fascinating to look at. So you can find yellow fluorite too,
but mostly if you find fluorite, it's a combination of
clear quartz with amethyst and then a green hue to it.
(38:03):
What that stone does, it is a wonderful stone for
the mind. It's a great stone for mercury retrograde because
it helps mitigate confusion, lack of clarity, uncertainty, over analysis.
You know so much mental chatter that you cannot find
you know, your words, your truth. You get bogged down.
It is great for focus, it's great for intention. It's
(38:25):
actually a really good manifesting stone. But that stone connects
with the heart chakra, it connects with the crown chakra,
it connects with the third eye, so it helps re
entrain brain frequencies. But it's really good for people who
have add and it's also great for anxiety. It's really
good for just shutting the mental chatter down so you
(38:45):
can find some peace because it creates a tremendous sense
of tranquility. So bloodstone and fluorite are the two stones
that I would really suggest working with into the beginning
of twenty twenty four, so I would say into the
first week through mercury stationing direct the first week of
the year, so in December and into the first week
(39:07):
of January. Those are the two stones that I think
are power players, very helpful and very enriching. Alongside of
this energy to help us move through the confusion so
we can get clear and we can get directed and
more grounded and focused in ourselves and our mighty I
Am presence. And speaking of Mighty I Am, I want
to leave you with a couple of intentions or give
(39:30):
you a bit of support for some mantras, intentions prayers
this month. One of the things that I love to
do is use the I am available statement. I am
available for and you can say at a multitude of
ways right now I'm available for today, I'm available for
this month, I'm available for this week, I'm available for.
(39:52):
You can shift it however you need to use it.
But what you were doing by saying I am available
for is you are conditioning your energy field today, I
am available for and if you've worked with me at all.
And I learned this years ago from a woman named
Barbara Marciniac who channel is a collective called the Pleaadians,
(40:14):
and I've met her a couple of times in Sedona.
In fact, i've seen her channel and it's one of
the most powerful and transformative things I've ever experienced. But
that's what the Pleaadians would say. You condition your day,
you condition your space. I am available for statements is
the message I heard from her, and that was probably
nine years ago, and I have used it. So what
(40:36):
you can do is you can put a note card
by your bed and you just write I AM available
for and a blank like fill in the blank. So
right when you wake up, you look over and you
see your eye AM available for, and you just start
filling in the blanks. You can say today, I'm available
for peace, today, I'm available for fun, today, I've available
for ease, joy, happiness, lightheartedness, connection, community, right place, right time, energy, success, love, romance, chance, encounters.
(41:03):
I don't just say something and say something uplifting. It'll
start rolling off your tongue when and when I say
rolling off your tongue. You can audibly say it, or
you can say it in your mind's eye, but it'll
start coming out. I'm available for, but use your I
am available statements, and this month supportive I am available
for statements would be things like this month, I am
(41:25):
available for trust. This month, I am available for an
ease and flow in whatever I encounter today. Today, I
am available for patience. Today, I am slow and steady. Today,
(41:45):
I am available for anything that creates greater happiness, greater trust,
greater fill in your blank. Today, I am available for
use that today. I'm available for this month. I'm available
for today. I am available for happiness, for health, for
(42:07):
well being. It is an exciting month. It's an exhausting month.
It's a whole soup of things this month. Because we
do have the holidays, we do get to connect with
friends and family, we do have commitments. We do overeat
and overindulge. We do maybe exercise less or exercise more.
(42:28):
Whatever you do, whatever you have in front of you,
see if you can be more present and more grounded.
And when you get confused or you feel that push
pull energy, stand in it, walk through it, get conscious,
call in your guides, call in the troops for support.
(42:49):
I'm excited and curious to hear your feedback. And for
those of you out there who do work with your guides,
and I have lots of clients who actually communicate very
clearly with their guides, and we've been able to identify
their guides and they get brilliant and wise messages. I
just don't know why I haven't been working with mine.
I've been talking to my soul so much. But clearly
(43:12):
there's two or three that are coming through, and Metatron
being one of them. And I will tell you this
because one of my guides is Metatron, which is an archangel.
I thought to myself, Ah, Metatron's not trying to talk
to me. He's got more important things to do. He
has other people to work with. That's just me discounting
and denying what's coming through repeatedly, over and over again.
(43:35):
And the moment I said, oh, hey, Medatron or was
willing to share this stuff with you all, which is
a big deal for me to say that because I
totally felt goofy. But it's not goofy. It's really real
to me. It's been real to me for two months.
I mean I told my husband on this trip about
it and he didn't blink an eye. He didn't understand it,
but he didn't blink an eye. You know. He didn't say, Amanda,
(43:57):
that's silly. So in closing, what's really important and I
share this often, but who are your people you can
share this stuff with? Who do you talk to about
this stuff like? And I'm talking about your spiritual journey,
your deep truths, your deep desires, the things that make
you feel a little insecure or self conscious or untrusting
(44:20):
or afraid of. Who do you talk to about this stuff?
Reach out to them who holds space for you? Talk
to them, allow them to hold space. Because the one
thing I do know when we allow people to hold space,
or people allow me to hold space for them, I
feel privileged, I feel special, I feel trusted, I feel safe.
(44:47):
And those things are things that I am available for
today and I hope you are too, because you're worthy
of any and all of those things. You just get
to create it and do it with your guides. Good
to create it, but don't forget to ask your guides.
So I hope you all are ready for the holiday season.
We have great content and exciting, exciting stuff coming up
(45:11):
in the next two months, so there will be information,
more tools, resources and tips to navigate this month of
December intentionally, and I do plan on doing a podcast
to close out the month so you can close out
the month. We do have a full moon at the
end of the month and some interesting astrology that I
think is really rich for reflection, and of course mercury
will be finishing its retrograde transit, so we will have that,
(45:34):
and then of course we'll kick off the new year
in some abundant ways to get clear and to get
very directed. So be in this confusing space and don't
try to make it what it's not, because you're right
on time, you're right where you're supposed to be, and
you are available for magnificent things. Take care of everyone.
Hi everyone, It's Amanda Rieger Green. Welcome to December. Here
we are at the close of the year. Let it
be confusing, that is the message. I know that sounds
confusing even when I say that, but there is a
lot of confusion this month. You may feel like you're
pulled in multiple directions and you're just scratching the surface,
(00:32):
or the answer is just out of reach. Let it
be out of reach. Let it be confusing. The clarity
will follow if you allow the confusion to filter through
your system, through your body, through your mind, through your energy,
feel through your emotions. This is a great month to
really pay attention to all aspects of yourself. And when
(00:55):
I talk about that, I've practiced this for a long time,
very highly aware and fine tune to my thoughts, my emotions,
my physical body, and my energy. That's taken practice. And
am I always aware of it? Heck, no, I'm not.
I'm a human. I'm messy. We all are. But the
(01:17):
more conscious and cognizant I become of Oh are those
racing thoughts? Am I thinking the same thing over and over? Or? Oh,
my goodness, are emotions going? Are chemicals being released in
my body? Emotions? Are chemical responses to our brain frequencies.
When we're thinking something, we send signals and these chemicals
get released in the body. And then there's the physical body.
(01:40):
You know, are my shoulders tents? Is my jaw tight?
Is my lower back hurting? Am I slumped over my computer?
I can notice my physical body. And then there's my
energy field. What am I sensing out in the field?
What am I sensing around me? And of course that's
much more new Last and Fine Tune. Do not get
(02:02):
overwhelmed by this or confused by it. Just no single
one out Ooh, I'm thinking the same thought. I'm having
the same dialogue with myself over and over. Is it healthy?
Is it the truth? Is it loving? Is it kind?
Check it out? And if you can observe that, then
you have the opportunity to shift it. If we can
(02:25):
shift our thoughts, our beliefs, that's what we have control over.
And in a world where it can feel like we
don't have control over much, we do have control over ourselves.
So paying attention. If it's your emotions, if you're familiar
with your emotions, this is a good time to say,
what does that feel like right now? And in my podcast,
(02:48):
Last month, we talked about emotions and needing to get
an emotional chart sometimes to be able to identify what
an emotion is. I've used an emotional chart for a
long time to understand what I'm actually feeling, because feelings
are nuanced. That's back to that word. It's a nuancee
kind of month. That's why I'm using it. And what
(03:10):
we feel is an important factor in our manifestation, in
our point of attraction. So what we're thinking is one thing,
but what we're feeling is like the jet fuel. And
as I mentioned in my podcast last month, I did
a two part series on wellness with my client and
executive at Amazon, Sarah Peterson, and she mentioned the how
(03:30):
we feel app So that's a great resource. Get an
emotional chart out and be like, Oh, that's irritation, Ooh
that's disillusionment. Find the feeling And do you have to
do this all the time? No, But when you're feeling heavy.
We usually notice when we're feeling heavy, what is the heaviness?
Is it loneliness? Is it sorrow? Is it sadness? Is
(03:52):
it grief? Is it pain? See if you can name
it or Also, there are so many forms of joy jubulation, delight, splendor.
Those are words we don't always use in our rhetoric.
Add them into your vocabulary. I love words. You all
know that the more you can enhance your vocabulary, especially
(04:14):
around yourself, whether it's your thoughts or your emotions, the
more intelligent and informed and self aware you will become.
You will feel that way, and you will see things
through a more enlightened and illuminated and conscious lens. Now,
the physical body, the physical body, it's so biologically intelligent.
(04:37):
Pay attention to it. When there's an ache, there's a pain,
there's a crunchiness. That stuff is always signaling something to us.
Usually I find that when I am in some sort
of physical disease discomfort, my body is signaling something to
me to pay attention to. That may be mentally or
(04:58):
emotionally or even spirit rually. I am not able to
process or recognize or hear or comprehend and the physical body.
Let me just give you a little roadmap, and an
easy roadmap. We're going to do this simply. In the
Eastern world, the left side of the body is the
receptive side, so the receiving the intuitive, and that correlates
(05:22):
with the right brain. Okay, So the right brain signals
the left side of the body. The right side of
the brain is the intuitive, the feminine, the creative, the compassionate,
and nurturing, the psychic side. That's that side of the brain.
The right side of the physical body is what exerts energy.
It's deliberate, it's action oriented, it's masculine. It gives out.
(05:46):
That correlates with the left hemisphere of the brain, which
is connected with practicality, logic analysis, very linear. We need
both sides of the brain, we need both sides of
the body. Let's say your shoulder is bothering you lately.
I've had some shoulder stuff in my left shoulder behind
my shoulder blade and it kind of tracks up to
(06:08):
the left side of my c spine my neck, and
I've been working through this and working to heal it. I've,
of course, I've gone to a chiropractor, I've done massage,
there are numerous things that I've done. But also on
the left side of my body, that's the feminine side
of my body, the receptive side of my body. I
can be very driven, deliberate, masculine. I know these things.
(06:31):
So there's something in my feminine side that is saying, Hey,
I'm not getting enough nurture or TLC or love. I'm
crunchy over here. If you think about the shoulder, the shoulder,
we carry the weight of the world on our shoulders.
The neck. The neck is brilliant. It's also part of
the throat chakra. The right side of my body and
(06:51):
the right side of my neck. Sometimes it really hurts
to turn my head with using my neck all the
way to the left side. So it's tense, it's tight.
There's something in my perspective. The next signals perspective. It
signals flexibility. There is something I am intuitively not receiving
and I'm being inflexible around And guess what, y'all, I've
(07:14):
I have done a deep dive into this stuff and
I have had breakthroughs and awareness and healing. And I
will tell you this this next stuff. It occurred for
the first time in twenty fifteen. I had just finished
yoga teacher training and it was just before we wrapped
up our training and we were graduating, and it was
a six month deal. It was very intensive, it was
(07:36):
working full time. It was illuminating and transformative. It was
a beautiful time in my life. But just before we
did our teach back, our teacher teach backs and had
our final yoga celebration whatever it was at the time,
I woke up and I could not move my neck.
And it was the right side of my neck, and
it was completely shut down, like I had injured myself.
(07:58):
And there was nothing I could track back to, like
doing you know, a shoulder stand or a headstand or
a tripod. I couldn't track back to doing anything that
had tweaked my neck. But it was as if I
had a massive injury and I had done something horrible.
It was painful. I couldn't move it. So I remember
for our last teach back and our graduation, I mean
(08:20):
I was stiff. I was stiff as a board. I
was in pain. But what I'll tell you is this,
in that phase and in that timeframe, I had worked
through my voice. I was still working in the corporate
world in healthcare. I'm also doing a two hundred hour
yoga teacher certification where I'm learning to become more flexible
(08:40):
and fluid and teach and use my voice. All of
my spiritual gifts had been coming through pretty rapidly at
that point, so using my voice as a yoga teacher
and instructing people, you know, paying attention to the body,
the breath, all of the things associated with yoga. I
was using a different part of my throat, my voice,
(09:00):
my throat chakra, and the feminine side was coming through.
And that is not unlike what is happening right now
with me, which has been really interesting, where I am
getting new messages, new insights from guides of mine that
I have not been connected with. And if you know
me and you've worked with me or listened to me
(09:21):
for a little bit of time, I talk to my
soul and I talk to God all the time. I
implore my soul to connect with me, to connect consciously
and hire and grow me and evolve me. I give
things to God. It is a lifestyle for me. It's
a non negotiable for me. But I have not been
working with my angels, my guides, and my troops on
(09:45):
the other side. I talk to my soul a lot
and to God, but I forget that I have this
choir of support. We all have a choir of support. Yes,
we've got our loved ones on the other side. And
you know, I've been talking to to my mother. Of course,
you know I've lost her this year. I talked to
her all the time. But what's really strange, And I'm
(10:06):
going to share this with you, and I'm I can't
believe I'm saying this out loud, because I still I'm
like even judging myself as I say it. But I'm
going to just remove the filter and say what I'm
feeling and thinking. And when I've been talking to my
mom for the last like two months, when I say
oh hey Mom, Hey Mom, immediately when I say hey Mom,
(10:28):
I'll say, oh, hey Mom, and hey Medatron. Medatron is
an archangel who if you look in the Bible, Enoch
ascended and it is written in multiple scriptures, in multiple
texts that Enoch became Medatron. Medatron is the great purveyor
of wisdom, the teacher of teachers. Medatron comes through in
(10:50):
radiant light that is often very sacred and geometrical. Medtron's
energy comes through in all sorts of ways. But I've
never really talked to Meta. My mom would talk to
archangels all the time and gave me a whole lot
of education around them. But I'm like, oh, Mom, that's
your thing. I believe I know they're there but I've
got my soul, I've got my higher self, I've got God.
(11:11):
I'm good. I'm good, you know. And I talked to
people's higher cells all the time, so like I've got
them too. We're good and you know. And I'll talk
to my grandparents and my loved ones on the other side.
But I'm not joking the past two months and my prayers,
and when I'm talking to my mom, I'd be like
mom oh mom in Metatron like it rolls off my tongue.
I don't know where it came from. But what I
do know is there was this call to say, hey,
(11:35):
I'm here trying to work with you. This is Metatron.
I'm here trying to work with you, but you need
to ask me why are you so afraid? And that
was the big question for me, is why was I afraid?
And I just had this revelation. It was like, well,
I don't know what people are going to think of
me if I say I'm talking to Metatron. So if
I am being very straightforward about what my fear was
(11:58):
is I'm worried about what people think about me and
if they think I'm kind of wacko and Cray Cray
and that Metatron is too far out there because we
can talk about the consciousness and our soul and God
and the divine and maybe the angels and our loved ones.
But if I say I'm talking to Metatron, is that
really true? Or am I making this up? See? I
do this stuff too. I know you all know what
(12:19):
I'm feeling. I mean, you may not be talking to Metatron,
or you may be. And I know there's lots of
you out there that do connect with archangels very clearly
and ascended masters and guides. And I am excited because
into the first of the year, we're going to do
a deep dive into archangels, ascended masters and their energies
and how we can work with them. So a little
preview into twenty twenty four that is coming, and hopefully
(12:43):
we'll get to talk to some people who've been doing
this for a while and have clear messages to deliver
for us. But the same way we see signs and
get messages, that's the way that these messengers, these guides
come through for us. My husband and I after Thanksgiving
(13:07):
got to take a little trip to Sedona, and I've
been to Sedona a handful of times, and this trip
was so peaceful. It was organic, it was peaceful, the
weather was beautiful, the crowds weren't super crazy and abundant.
It was just right, you know, it was just right
(13:28):
and it flowed. But we were out on a couple
of hikes and I kept getting these very clear messages
and they were from Metatron, and I still kept saying,
it's not Metatron, that's my higher self. Oh no, I'm
just getting a sign. I'm getting a sign from my
higher consciousness. I mean, I kept denying it and pushing
it aside and pushing it aside, and then finally I
(13:50):
was like, okay, I swear I see Metatron's energy. Like
I could see these orbs and these rays of lights
shooting out, captured them on my phone and I showed
my husband because I was like, can you see that
over there? And he was like, well, it's beautiful, but
I don't see the rays of light. And I'm like,
there are rays of light. You don't see them. They're blue,
and then there's an orb and you know, I'm and
(14:13):
he obliges me, but he also doesn't dismiss me in
any of that. He's always like, well, if you say that,
you're seeing that, I believe you. You know, I just can't
see them, but I'm like, let me take a picture.
And sure enough, I took a couple of pictures, and
there's these gorgeous rays of light. And I sent them
to a dear friend of mine, my friend Andreas, who
is very aware of auras and energies and light and
(14:33):
also very familiar with the archangels, and I sent these
to him and he's like, oh, there's Metatron. And then
he's like, and there's jo Fiel, Like, that's Jofiel's energy,
and Joefel is the angel. If you've heard me talk
about this, that showed up for my mother, and that
my mother said she clearly saw when she was transitioning
to the other side. And again she knew the angels
(14:54):
and their energies and their messages and their stories in
a really really evolved and transcended way, a very mystical way.
She had a mystical relationship with her angels and her guides.
And now I'm realizing, oh my gosh, it's there for
me too. It's there for you too as well. And
this month, I'm going to talk about the numerology in
(15:16):
a minute, and I'm going to talk a little bit
about the astrology because I want to give you a
roadmap and I'll give you some tools. But this month,
when you're feeling confused, when you're feeling uncertain, instead of
trying to change it, sit with it for a minute
and see if you can see what's going on mentally,
or see what's tapping in for you emotionally what you're
(15:37):
feeling or physically, what's happening in your body, or if
you're energetically aware, what are you sensing around you? Can
you feel or see your aura, can you see energies
or you getting downloads and insights? You know, is it
more energetic? See if you can clarify that for yourself,
(15:58):
because through the confine fusion, clarity will appear. And as
it relates to the numerology, this month we are in
a one universal month in numerology. The way that I
get that is December is the twelfth month of the year.
One plus two twelve reduces down to three, so that's
(16:18):
the energy of the three. Twenty twenty three is a
seven year. Seven plus three equals ten, which reduces down
to one. So we are in a one month as
we close out the year, there's the confusion because we're
in a beginning initiating energy. The one is about initiation,
(16:39):
It's about pioneering new beginnings. It's about leaderships, it's about
boldness and courage. It's about being the leader of your
own life, paving your own way. It's also the one
is the I am I am fill in the blank.
So this is a month of initiation, Yet we are
(17:02):
in a time of closure. We are at the end
of the year, and some of the things astrologically also
reflect change, not so much closure, but a time of reviewing, revising, revisiting.
We have a mercury retrograde this month. Mercury retrogrades on
the twelfth of the month, and it's retrograde in Capricorn
(17:24):
and then it'll back up into Sagittarius. What does that mean?
While it's retrograde in Capricorn, we are reassessing, redefining, reformulating
our goals, our plans, what it is that we want
to do, and what's confusing about that? The energy of
the one in numerology says, these are the plans I'm making.
(17:45):
I am stepping out with this new goal, this dune direction.
It wants to charge forward. Yet mercury. So the astrological
code is saying no, no, no no, reevaluate your plans,
and the numerology is saying charge forward. So the astro
numero code is creating a push pull energy in the field.
(18:06):
So guess what it's going to create confusion. I want
to charge forward, but I'm being pulled backwards. You know,
I've set this appointment with this person that I've been
trying to get a hold of, and this is going
to advance my career. Or I'm going to be able
to have this discussion with a friend of mine and
I'm going to get some clarity around this this family situation.
(18:27):
And then all of a sudden they reschedule or they
flake out, such as the nature of mercury retrograde. You know, miscommunications,
plans being waylaid, delays, confused again, confusion. You got to
like it. Just it's like se la VI live and
let live, let it go. If an appointment gets canceled,
if there's a mixed miscommunication or a glitch in your calendar,
(18:51):
your day, something you planned and even if you've worked
hard towards it and it doesn't pan out, or someone
needs to reschedule or some one says something and it
hacks you off, or you know, you get an email
from someone that wasn't intended for you and it says
something ugly about you. You know, we've all either done
(19:12):
that or been there reciprient. And I'm not saying we've
said something ugly, but you know we've sent an email
to someone we intended for someone else and it's either
highly embarrassing or oh shoot, I just put my foot
in my mouth energy. That's mercury retrograde, you know. And
the best thing to do is own up to it
pretty darn fast. Is just say, oh my gosh, that
was not intended for you, or wow, I said that,
(19:32):
and you know what, I was a little too quick,
I was a little too sharp with my tongue. That
wasn't very nice to me. That's not your stuff, that's mine.
The quicker and more resilient you can become and less
confusing in what you're doing. So, yes, there's that confusion internally,
but if you can be clear externally, own your stuff,
(19:53):
clarify your path, whatever you're doing, taking action, laying a foundation,
that's the kind of month it is. It's more found
national than it is extroverted. Or oriented where you will
feel things come together fully. Things may feel like they're
just about to click or just about to fit together,
and then there's a setback. And one of the things,
(20:15):
one of the things with the one is self doubt
because there's a lot of bold, courage and momentum there
and the one can really get disillusioned or doubt itself
when things don't pan out. So when you feel doubtful,
when you are worrying, when you are overly concerned with
(20:37):
your own success, your own happiness, your own circumstances. And yes,
life can be tough. Life is tough. A lot of times.
Life is hard. It's the holidays that we're being pulled
in so many different directions. It's also the end of
the of a very immense year. And that's really what
(20:58):
this year has been about. Seeking, searching, going deeper, understanding better,
more fine tuning who we are, why we are. It's
been an introspective year. Next year, not so much relish
this time. Let the holidays be what they are. It's
a reset button. But it's not just about being lazy
(21:22):
or not showing up, not getting things done or accomplished.
It's more about letting the confusion, the uncertainty, the self doubt,
the insecurities, the anxiety. This can be a very anxious month,
by the way, because of the push pull and the
astrology and numerology and some other factors. Letting that work
(21:46):
through you, and I want to talk about anxiety for
a minute. I find, and this doesn't apply to everyone
and every circumstance, but I find more often than not,
anxiety is usually the body trying to raise in vibration,
trying to knock us down or take us out of
the game, or cripple us. And that's how anxiety can feel.
(22:06):
It can feel crippling. I had someone reach out and say,
I've got crippling anxiety. What do I do? And I said, Hey,
that is your body, your biological and physiological body, trying
to move dense, heavy matter out of your cells, your DNA,
your organs, your muscles, your joints. It is trying to
flush out and filtrate because it moves from the solar
(22:28):
plexus through the heart, through the throat, and it gets
stuck in our throat. When we're anxious, sometimes we can't breathe,
we can't speak. Our lungs and our heart get incapacitated
and full and overwhelmed. We all know what that feels like.
And sometimes it can be a full on panic attack,
or it can just be unsettling. Breathe through it and say,
oh my gosh, body, you're flushing stuff out. Breathe and
(22:51):
push it up and through you sit still with it.
Let the confusion, let the uncertainty, the worry, the doubt,
anything that is coming up for you, the fear, let
that stuff process. Give it time, and also ask your guides.
Say hey, guides, whatever I'm going through, I need your help.
(23:14):
Call in the big guns. That's what I've been saying.
I'm calling in the big guns. You know. Yes, I've
got God or my higher power, you know, the prime
creator of the universe. Yes, I've got my higher consciousness
and all these other aspects of myself in multi dimensional
time that I often work with and communicate with, all
the times, parallel lifetimes, future versions of me, past versions
(23:36):
of me, all the things. I guess this is so
normal to me. But I have not been asking my
guides to help me, and they've been not just knocking
on my door. I mean, who just goes to bed
at night and says, hey, mom, I miss you. Will
you show me a sign? Who says hey, Mom and Metatron.
I mean, it's just been rolling off of my tongue
(23:57):
and I say it, of course with the voice in
my head, my inside, but it's like mom and Metatron.
So I'm saying this because I'm like, oh my gosh,
I'm kind of afraid to say this, but I'm actually not.
It's my truth. Call in your guides, ask them to
reveal themselves to you. I was just talking to a
client earlier today, a client who I've worked with for years.
(24:18):
We do package sessions, which is the way I love
working with people. I love new clients. I love meeting
new people, you know, that is something I get to do.
But my package clients, the people I work with routinely
and who really are dedicated to their personal and spiritual
journey and want to grow and evolve, Those are the
ones that light my fire because I get to witness
(24:41):
their growth, be a part of the facilitation and hold
the space. But I get to see them thrive, and
I get to see them thrive through pain, through beautiful
stuff to tap into their intuition, their consciousness, their truth,
their meaning, and also start to work with their body,
their mind, their emotions, and their energy field in conscious
and remarkable ways. So I'm talking to this client. She said, Hey, Amanda,
(25:05):
you know you told me to really pay attention to
signs this month, little stuff coming through. Well, she had
been kind of seeing this guy, okay, and this is
this whole thing with a turtle, all right. So this
turtle kept coming up and they were making jokes about turtles,
and then they were at this festival thing and a
turtle came through and they were playing these games, you know,
(25:26):
where you throw the thing over the turtle and there's
different animals and whatever. Well, anyway, he stole one of
those turtles and gave it to her. But anyway, short
story long, and to not reveal too much. Essentially, he's
a really cool guy. He's a lot of fun, but
I'm not really sure he's mature enough or serious enough
for her. And he's a little bit flaky and she's
not a flaky gal. And she's like, gosh, when is
my person coming? And then she goes to work the
(25:49):
next day and these these people come into work and
they start saying, oh my gosh, do you have little turtle?
This and that. They started talking about turtles, and then
turtles appeared on her computer screen. When she was, you know,
in the advertisements about something, some turtles appeared. So it
was like turtles were showing up everywhere. And she said, Amanda,
I mean hello, like, I guess this isn't the guy,
(26:10):
but I keep getting these turtle signs and I'm giving
you this specific example because it was comical, but it
was amazing too, and it was all tracking with her
energy field. I was like, this is not about this
guy and your longevity of this relationship or where it's
going or what it's meant to be and is he
(26:31):
the one? And why isn't he this all the things
that we go through, right, I was like, the turtle
is trying to work with you. Turtle energy, turtle spirit animal.
You have a guide that is a turtle that's trying
to show up. And I know you're probably laughing, like, wait, wait,
you're just talking about Metatron, this archangel as a guide,
and now you're talking about a turtle. But that's why
(26:54):
I'm sharing this with you. All is our guides. And
when I've worked with guides in the past, they show
up in a multitude of forms. They can be someone
who is like a wise woman, a sage. It can
show up like a wizard. It can show up as
someone a loved one you're familiar with. A guide can
show up. Guides can be animals. There's so much energy
(27:17):
in animal medicine and animal totems. When I see certain animals,
I'm like, oh wait, what is that message? What's coming through?
What energy is this showing me? But what was coming
up for her is turtle medicine, turtle energy. There's a
guide that is delivering messages to her that is about
turtle medicine, which is about yes, you guessed it. Slow
(27:37):
and steady wins the race. It's about patience and perseverance.
It's about being true to your own path. And if anything,
this woman, this client is true to her own path,
has become more true to her own path over the
course gosh of the last three or four years, but
more specifically and in a more grounded, deliberate it way,
(28:01):
over the course of this year and everything in her energy.
Feel This month denotes take one step at a time,
be present, show up for what's showing up for you.
Get out of the past, don't worry about the future.
Be here now. What's showing up. Now, what can you do? Now?
What action can you take? Now? That's all Turtle Energy
(28:22):
and Turtle Medicine. So she has this guide and I
told her to I said, you got to start calling
in your guides. I'm calling in the troops. You got
to call in the troops. And then we started laughing
because she was like, oh my gosh, this makes sense.
And of course she was disappointed that it wasn't about
the guy, and I was like, that's just how spirit works,
That's how these signs work. They're not logical, they're confusing.
(28:42):
And guess what else. We need help. We need people
to reflect this stuff back to us. So who are
your people who you can share this wacky stuff with?
Because it's wacky and it's fun and it's amazing, but
it's meaningful and it makes sense. The codes, the energies,
the signs, they are all there for us to respond
to and work with. And if a turtle shows up
(29:04):
twenty five times for you, you better be looking up and
working with Turtle Energy and Turtle Medicine. I don't care
if it's a rabbit, a fox. If you see a
heart a bunch of times, a peace sign, a coin,
on the ground a song on the radio that replays.
I mean, I know it's Christmas music, so I've heard
a lot of George Michael. Last year I gave you
My Heart. Although I watched a really create Christmas movie
(29:26):
called Last Christmas, and I cried last night at the
end of it. It's really sweet. If you haven't watched
it, it has the girl Denarius Targarian. She's in it. I
can't think of her name, but anyway, I watched it.
It was really good. So yes, there's okay. I'm not
talking about the Christmas songs that play on repeat, although
I have Christmas songs that have meaning for me and
my husband and I. On the way home for Thanksgiving,
(29:47):
we're talking about my dad and then oh, Christmas Tree
came on. But O tannanbamb which is what he loved,
which is you know, O Tannan bomb. I'm not going
to sing it for you and hurt your ears, but
it came on and I was like, oh my gosh,
this is my dad's favorite Christmas song and we had
just been talking about him. So look for the signs.
But I also want you to take it one step
further and say, hey, guides rope your guides into that
(30:10):
the signs that you see, not just your loved ones,
not just your higher power God, not just your soul.
Ask your guides, start connecting with and communicating with your GUIDs.
What are you afraid of? What are you afraid of?
Why not ask them? We can use all the help
we can get so with this month. And remember I
(30:36):
said Mercury is retrograde in Capricorn, so it's all about redefining,
reassessing our goals and our plan of action. There's that,
then it will back into Sagittarius later in the month.
And when Mercury moves into Sagittarius retrograde, it's saying we're
reevaluating our beliefs. What do I believe is possible? What
(30:59):
do I believe? Who do I believe in? Why do
I believe this? What are my motivations? And when you
get confused this month, when you feel uncertain, when there's
that push pull energy, Yes, you can practically do what
I was talking about. You going to assessing your thoughts,
checking in with your emotions, see what's going on in
(31:21):
your physical body ground, and be in tune with your
energy field. But another practical place to go with this,
if you don't know the direction you're going in, or
things are not quite fitting and you can't quite figure
out or formulate your plan of action to get where
you're wanting to go. I want you to check your motives.
Say what is my motivation? What is motivating me towards
(31:44):
this goal these actions? Is it money? Is it romance?
Is it health? Is it freedom? It doesn't matter what
it is. It just matters that you ask. So you're
getting clear on your why, which is very sagittarius, by
the way, but you're clarifying your beliefs. So this mercury
(32:05):
retrograde is highly fortuitous, frustrating, albeit fortuitous absolutely because it's
taking the end of the year and it's creating all
this initiation energy with the numerology, the one moving forward
getting clear you're mighty, I am, And then mercury retrograding
and some other aspects that we have going on astrologically
(32:28):
in the sky are saying hold on, reevaluate your weight,
your meaning, your motivations, and for me, motivations. Let me
just give you a clear example. If in my day
I have a busy day ahead of me. Let's say
I have a ton of stuff on my plate. I'm
really busy. It's back to back appointments, clients, engagements, commitments.
(32:51):
In the morning, I can wake up and I can
be like, oh my gosh, I have such a busy day.
Oh my gosh, I have so much of my plate.
Oh my gosh, how am I going to get all
through all this? And then immediately I feel that I
I'm basically self sabotaging because my whole attitude is like, ugh,
it's going to be so busy. Well, I know how
to flip that. I do that? Did I did that?
This morning? I said, Oh my gosh, Amanda, Yes, you
(33:14):
have an abundant day at a busy day, but oh
my gosh, you get to talk to this person, this person,
you get to start your day out with pilates, you
get to record this podcast, get and you like to
do all the things that are on your plate today,
you do them well, you show up, Holy, you genuinely
enjoy all of the people you're interacting with. You get
(33:34):
to do this podcast. Oh my gosh. So all of
a sudden, I shifted my outlook. But then I also
got very clear with my motive for the day. Why
was I stressed that I had a busy day because
it just was like, it's a full day and oh
my gosh, I'm gonna be exhausted, Oh my gosh, I'm
gonna be so tired. So my motivation was just ugh.
(33:56):
It was getting through. And so what did I do.
I clarified my motivation and I SAYD but I want
to enjoy myself. I want to have energy, I want
to be clear. I want to help people. I want
to show up for the people who show up for me,
and to be able to find enrichment, find enjoyment. My
motivation is ease. My motivation is abundance, My motivation is fun.
(34:20):
My motivation is also accomplishment, fulfillment. So I just started
rewriting not only my attitude and my outlook. I clarified
the motivation. And before the motivation was ugh. I got
to get through this day. And there was nothing on
paper about my day that said ugh to me. When
I got clear about it and when I clarified that
(34:41):
why and that motivation, that shifted my belief, my attitude,
my energy, field, my heart and soul, and it's been
an amazing day. It's been a really productive, fulfilling, successful, abundant, easy,
it's been an easy day. It's been enjoyable. It's been
more abundant than I could have humanly imagined. And if
it would have been, oh, I got to get through
(35:02):
all this stuff today, it's going to be a long day.
That's how it would have been. So check your attitude,
check your motives, check your why, reorient, realign it. Use
this mercury retrograde to really clarify your voice, your emotions,
your body, your body language, and your energy. That's a
big setup for twenty twenty four. All right, I want
(35:25):
to give you a few crystal recommendations and some other
tools for the end of the month. I would definitely
work with a couple of crystals. If you haven't worked
with crystals before, They're a great way to kind of
bump up and inspire and realign your energy field because
they do not they're not watery like we are. They're fixed.
(35:46):
Their energy is fixed. It is consistent, and it transmits
and emits energy that we can align with. So I
would work with bloodstone. Bloodstone is a greenstone and it
has kind of these red veins in it, so it
like it has looks like veins, but it's it's a beautiful,
deep green with the red in it. Bloodstone is a
(36:11):
heart chakra stone and a root chakra stone, so it
connects with the energy of the heart. Organic unconditional love
is a sense of wholeness and fulfillment. It's a very
organic stone, so it connects us with just being natural being,
human being rather than human doing. And the blood stone
(36:34):
in it, the red in it, which is connected with
the root chakra. It's like these it's like jasper that
comes through it. It's a red jasper in the green stone.
The blood piece, the red piece is all about primal energy,
primal force, vitality, which connects with the energy of the one.
In numerology, it's about connecting with our primal energy, our desires,
(36:54):
our instincts, our motivation, our motivations, our encouragement. So the
bloodstone creates a sense of grounded action. It creates a centering,
an organic centering from the heart, so we move more
organically and easily through our heart. The stone also really
helps with anxiety, by the way, it's a great stone
for you know, confusion and anxiety. But the bloodstone, like
(37:18):
it revitalizes our instincts, our nature, our motivation, So that's
a great stone to work with. Another stone that I
think is wonderful for this month is fluorite, and fluorite
has different hues in it. It's usually purple green, clear,
and sometimes it can be yellow. Actually have some yellow
(37:40):
fluorite sitting in front of me, which is quite wicked
and beautiful. And when I say wicked, I just mean
it's like wicked cool like I'm from Boston, not wicked
like scary dark energy. It's just wicked coal because it's
fascinating to look at. So you can find yellow fluorite too,
but mostly if you find fluorite, it's a combination of
clear quartz with amethyst and then a green hue to it.
(38:03):
What that stone does, it is a wonderful stone for
the mind. It's a great stone for mercury retrograde because
it helps mitigate confusion, lack of clarity, uncertainty, over analysis.
You know so much mental chatter that you cannot find
you know, your words, your truth. You get bogged down.
It is great for focus, it's great for intention. It's
(38:25):
actually a really good manifesting stone. But that stone connects
with the heart chakra, it connects with the crown chakra,
it connects with the third eye, so it helps re
entrain brain frequencies. But it's really good for people who
have add and it's also great for anxiety. It's really
good for just shutting the mental chatter down so you
(38:45):
can find some peace because it creates a tremendous sense
of tranquility. So bloodstone and fluorite are the two stones
that I would really suggest working with into the beginning
of twenty twenty four, so I would say into the
first week through mercury stationing direct the first week of
the year, so in December and into the first week
(39:07):
of January. Those are the two stones that I think
are power players, very helpful and very enriching. Alongside of
this energy to help us move through the confusion so
we can get clear and we can get directed and
more grounded and focused in ourselves and our mighty I
Am presence. And speaking of Mighty I Am, I want
to leave you with a couple of intentions or give
(39:30):
you a bit of support for some mantras, intentions prayers
this month. One of the things that I love to
do is use the I am available statement. I am
available for and you can say at a multitude of
ways right now I'm available for today, I'm available for
this month, I'm available for this week, I'm available for.
(39:52):
You can shift it however you need to use it.
But what you were doing by saying I am available
for is you are conditioning your energy field today, I
am available for and if you've worked with me at all.
And I learned this years ago from a woman named
Barbara Marciniac who channel is a collective called the Pleaadians,
(40:14):
and I've met her a couple of times in Sedona.
In fact, i've seen her channel and it's one of
the most powerful and transformative things I've ever experienced. But
that's what the Pleaadians would say. You condition your day,
you condition your space. I am available for statements is
the message I heard from her, and that was probably
nine years ago, and I have used it. So what
(40:36):
you can do is you can put a note card
by your bed and you just write I AM available
for and a blank like fill in the blank. So
right when you wake up, you look over and you
see your eye AM available for, and you just start
filling in the blanks. You can say today, I'm available
for peace, today, I'm available for fun, today, I've available
for ease, joy, happiness, lightheartedness, connection, community, right place, right time, energy, success, love, romance, chance, encounters.
(41:03):
I don't just say something and say something uplifting. It'll
start rolling off your tongue when and when I say
rolling off your tongue. You can audibly say it, or
you can say it in your mind's eye, but it'll
start coming out. I'm available for, but use your I
am available statements, and this month supportive I am available
for statements would be things like this month, I am
(41:25):
available for trust. This month, I am available for an
ease and flow in whatever I encounter today. Today, I
am available for patience. Today, I am slow and steady. Today,
(41:45):
I am available for anything that creates greater happiness, greater trust,
greater fill in your blank. Today, I am available for
use that today. I'm available for this month. I'm available
for today. I am available for happiness, for health, for
(42:07):
well being. It is an exciting month. It's an exhausting month.
It's a whole soup of things this month. Because we
do have the holidays, we do get to connect with
friends and family, we do have commitments. We do overeat
and overindulge. We do maybe exercise less or exercise more.
(42:28):
Whatever you do, whatever you have in front of you,
see if you can be more present and more grounded.
And when you get confused or you feel that push
pull energy, stand in it, walk through it, get conscious,
call in your guides, call in the troops for support.
(42:49):
I'm excited and curious to hear your feedback. And for
those of you out there who do work with your guides,
and I have lots of clients who actually communicate very
clearly with their guides, and we've been able to identify
their guides and they get brilliant and wise messages. I
just don't know why I haven't been working with mine.
I've been talking to my soul so much. But clearly
(43:12):
there's two or three that are coming through, and Metatron
being one of them. And I will tell you this
because one of my guides is Metatron, which is an archangel.
I thought to myself, Ah, Metatron's not trying to talk
to me. He's got more important things to do. He
has other people to work with. That's just me discounting
and denying what's coming through repeatedly, over and over again.
(43:35):
And the moment I said, oh, hey, Medatron or was
willing to share this stuff with you all, which is
a big deal for me to say that because I
totally felt goofy. But it's not goofy. It's really real
to me. It's been real to me for two months.
I mean I told my husband on this trip about
it and he didn't blink an eye. He didn't understand it,
but he didn't blink an eye. You know. He didn't say, Amanda,
(43:57):
that's silly. So in closing, what's really important and I
share this often, but who are your people you can
share this stuff with? Who do you talk to about
this stuff like? And I'm talking about your spiritual journey,
your deep truths, your deep desires, the things that make
you feel a little insecure or self conscious or untrusting
(44:20):
or afraid of. Who do you talk to about this stuff?
Reach out to them who holds space for you? Talk
to them, allow them to hold space. Because the one
thing I do know when we allow people to hold space,
or people allow me to hold space for them, I
feel privileged, I feel special, I feel trusted, I feel safe.
(44:47):
And those things are things that I am available for
today and I hope you are too, because you're worthy
of any and all of those things. You just get
to create it and do it with your guides. Good
to create it, but don't forget to ask your guides.
So I hope you all are ready for the holiday season.
We have great content and exciting, exciting stuff coming up
(45:11):
in the next two months, so there will be information,
more tools, resources and tips to navigate this month of
December intentionally, and I do plan on doing a podcast
to close out the month so you can close out
the month. We do have a full moon at the
end of the month and some interesting astrology that I
think is really rich for reflection, and of course mercury
will be finishing its retrograde transit, so we will have that,
(45:34):
and then of course we'll kick off the new year
in some abundant ways to get clear and to get
very directed. So be in this confusing space and don't
try to make it what it's not, because you're right
on time, you're right where you're supposed to be, and
you are available for magnificent things. Take care of everyone.
