(00:00):
Today I want to talk aboutsomething that is lighting up as
(00:04):
such an obvious key and code andcrucial piece to success with
development of any kind, whetherit be personal or professional.
Anything that you are trying toimprove, make progress within,
get yourself from some point Ato point B, anything where
(00:26):
you're aiming higher or furtheror better.
There's something that's beencoming through for me right now
that I want to talk to and hitfrom multiple angles in this
episode, that just really feelslike the holy grail perspective
that makes this easy.
But also, to say it's obviousit's going to be when I talk
(00:50):
about it and illuminate it, butI also feel like it's something
that's so easy to forget.
Or get caught up in somethingother than, okay, so enough
circling around the thing.
What I want to talk about is howimportant it is to, not only be
(01:12):
tuned into where we're trying toget to.
Like the potential comparison ofhow far we are from there.
Focusing on and visualizing whatis this new place, this new
level, this new embodiment thatwe want to get to.
But that just as important and Ithink so often minimized in
(01:37):
relation to this eye on theprize fixation on where we want
to get to is being just asgrounded in and anchored to
where you are right now.
The angles that I want to comeat this around that really
illustrate the point, becausefor me to say that it's like,
(01:59):
oh, duh.
Right?
But when we really unpack thisand the far reaching and broad
scope, how many things thistouches, how many things this is
true for.
I think it really illuminatesthe power and the value of this
thing and why I feel so calledto speak about it today.
(02:20):
I want to look at it both from akind of inner game, personal
growth, personal developmentangle, also from a more
practical, money oriented orgamified point driven, more like
that kind of next leveling whenit comes to success.
I also want to ground it withsome very specific examples that
(02:44):
have been up for me and myclients that I want to share
with you either to support youdirectly, if you can see
yourself in these examples, orto offer a mirror for you to
triangulate and connect the dotsto something maybe you've been
trying to call in, somethingyou've been trying to make
(03:05):
happen for yourself, somewhereyou've been trying to get to,
something you've been trying toachieve, that has felt like it
has been eluding you.
I suspect that there issomething here for you in
remembering to apply thisimportant piece of being just as
grounded in where you are now toget where you want to go.
I want to start this out withmore of a feeling space of times
(03:30):
that I've landed in a veryspecific orientation toward my
relationship to the thing that Iwant, the thing that I'm calling
in, that ends up just collapsingtime.
When I end up getting what Iwant, when the shift happens,
when the stars realign, whensomething shifts so that finally
(03:52):
I get what I've been calling inor asking for.
I can always think back, notlong, right before to having
landed in a very particularfeeling state that I think
really illustrates the pointthat I'm trying to make here of
the more meaningful, moremysterious force behind why this
(04:15):
is so powerful.
I have the example of that therewas a pretty long amount of time
that I was starting to, thanksbiological clock, really
fantasize about family andchildren.
I wasn't in a relationship atthe time I was single.
I hadn't met my husband yet,which if you know me and know
(04:35):
that story, that all happenedvery quickly once I did meet
him.
But it was just something that Iwas really holding in my
awareness, my desires, my innerworld.
And as I'm sure you can probablyrelate to, for something that
felt really big, it felt like areally big ask.
Especially relative to the waysI had been in relationship
(04:59):
before the kind of version of mylife I had been living.
It just didn't seem to fit, butthe desire was there and the
wish, the seed of the wish hadbeen planted.
I had gone through variousstages with this that were like,
some of them ended up feelinglike it was like a process of
push and pull basically, wheresometimes I felt the longing or
(05:23):
the frustration of the proximityfrom, or any number of ways that
I just didn't feel fullyconfident in and aligned with
that ask and that it was on itsway to me.
There's different ways that wecan talk about this space, this
feeling space that I'm going tomention.
(05:44):
Although talking about them,similar to mantras when there's
no actual behaviors to back themup, are just baseless.
There's a state that youactually get to that makes it
feel so much more true than justsaying things like, it's on my
way to me, calling in thistimeline.
It is so, whatever your versionof speaking your belief and
(06:09):
trust and confidence in thatthat thing is coming.
There's a very different stateand place that we get to when we
actually feel it.
This example that I want tooffer is that, honestly and to
the point that I'm making, itreally was so far from a
striving or a longing.
In fact, when this momenthappened, in this example, I
(06:31):
wasn't even thinking about it amoment before.
There was no at that moment,conscious striving or trying.
An awareness lit up in me and Isuddenly notice I was driving
and I was in the front seat ofmy car and all of a sudden I
felt this profound sense ofpeace wash over me.
(06:53):
This is another one where, whatwords do we put to this?
But in every instance of thisplace, for me, it starts with, I
just feel so relaxed andsettled.
Feelings that come along withI'm exactly where I need to be,
when I need to be, zeroresistance to my current
(07:15):
reality, to life, to the presentmoment.
Just this pure, absolutealignment with the present
moment and feeling that in mybody.
The next thing I know, I sensethis little boy sitting behind
me in a car seat and a husbandsitting next to me in the
passenger seat.
Again, this was not somethingthat I had actively visualized
(07:38):
or had put effort intovisualizing.
It was just all of a sudden Igot to this feeling state that's
familiar to me.
The next thing I knew I washaving this feeling, sensual
hallucination of a son and ahusband in the car with me.
I even looked in the rear viewmirror and, anyways it's
(08:01):
familiar to me too, to thisspace that I get to between
sleeping and waking, where Ikind of half hallucinate things
and I have to check if they'rereal.
It's like that.
But in my waking life, obviouslyI was driving, I was fully awake
and aware.
It wasn't long after that beforeI met my husband, and then three
months into our relationship wewere pregnant, and then 10
(08:24):
months later my son was here.
I have had plenty of momentssince of having my husband in
the passenger seat and my son inthe backseat on the right side,
exactly where I saw him in thatvision.
These are the kind of momentsthat I absolutely live for.
I am not one to try to pin downthe magic behind what's
(08:46):
happening when this happens.
However, I do know there wassome serious magic at play, and
this isn't the only time thatI've experienced this.
There's like a connectionbetween two moments in time, a
future time, a timeline wherewhat I want is actually real,
and a present time where I am sopeacefully settled into exactly
(09:11):
where I am right now.
Nothing in me is, it's like thisspace that I find I eventually
get to when I'm callingsomething in after I've gone to
these other places of yearningand longing and impatience and
frustration, eventually I justlet that all go.
(09:32):
It's like I have to go throughall that first though.
Then on the other side of it, Ieventually get to a place of
absolute peace and acceptance.
That it's not here yet.
And it's not like a, I'm willingit to be, it's coming and I know
it is.
It's just I get to this reallypeaceful place of well, of
course it is.
There's no resistance to thetiming to that it's here or not
(09:55):
right now to anything at all inthis very moment.
It is when I finally arrive atthat place that there is some
kind of a real, felt embodiedconnection between present and
future time that brings that tome very quickly after.
The reason I wanted to tell thisstory first is just to ground us
(10:16):
here together, hopefully, andprobably as I was telling this
story, you thought of a versionand an example in your life of
where this has happened.
Maybe multiple, but maybe youdidn't make the connection that
that was that final catalyst,that final missing peace state
moment experience that had tohappen before you were able to
actually receive what you'vebeen asking for.
(10:39):
Now we're going to go into themore logical, practical side of
different areas of life andbusiness where this ends up
happening and working.
Obviously in my example offamily and children, that's a
big deal, milestone, rite ofpassage kind of thing.
But this actually happens allthe time and it's especially
(11:03):
important to be aware of in theareas where you really need to
keep this top of mind.
You need to be able to be inthose two places at once to
support the kind ofmanifestation engine that makes
momentum possible.
Obviously, ultimately, I'm goingto be grounding this into your
relationship with money, withscaling, with calling in more
(11:27):
revenue to meet bigger lifestyledesires and investment needs.
But that's not the only placethis happens.
And if you're a growth orientedperson, this is something you
have an awareness in everysector of your life of where you
would like to go and get to, ofwhere you're aiming next.
But before I zoom in onexamples, let's actually zoom
(11:50):
out to something that touches onthis around what makes each of
us unique and different.
And a way to understand how bothof these are true
simultaneously, at the sametime, for any area of your life,
anything that you're trying togrow, improve, evolve yourself
(12:12):
inside of.
That is the difference betweenthe optimal cheat code, most
aligned way for you to be withany part of yourself and in any
life area based on thereflection of your birth chart,
based on your astrology chart.
Based on your astrology andwhere you are right now, I think
(12:37):
that this is one thing thatdoesn't get really specifically
named and pointed to thatcreates a little bit of distrust
or just part of why astrology tosome is seen as woo instead of
the incredible ancient tool thatit is.
And that's that yeah, your chartis a snapshot of the energetic
(12:59):
matrix that imprinted upon youthe moment that you took your
first breath, the energetic homebase, that was the first
experience your body had ofcertain energy currents moving
through and grounding below you,moving through and grounding
into your reality, that wouldthen become your codes or
(13:22):
energetic signatures for howenergy wants to move through you
and ground into your reality.
But that said, obviously, youare not the same person that
takes your first breath as theversion of you that takes your
last breath or any of the manyversions of you that exist in
between.
So this thing that I'm talkingabout of being aware of where
(13:44):
you're headed and where you areright now, this is something
very interesting to overlayastrology over and the tools
that we have available.
On the one hand, there aredefinitely clues to the scope
and the territory that you mightmeander through when you are
(14:04):
less or more conscious, or moreor less further along,
developed, in any given area ofyour life.
My background is in evolutionaryastrology, so that is my jam.
We can see in a chart what itmight look like for you to be on
one end of the spectrum or theother, and then obviously a life
(14:24):
lived is going to meanderthroughout that space and
territory.
But my favorite way to useastrology, that's the most
efficient and practical,especially as a business owner
and for non astrologers, whichis why I frame astrology this
way, even though I'm anastrologer myself, is to really
(14:46):
isolate the codes that show youwhat your optimal way is, for
each of these planets, theseparts of you reflected with
planets, luminaries, and points.
What is the energetic signature?
How does that want to movethrough and embody?
Through you and where, what lifearea does that want to ground
(15:10):
into, so that you complete thatcircuit for yourself, so that
you feel the most fulfilled, sothat you are the most
successful, so that you feel themost inflow, and so that you
feel the most serendipitouslypronoia-like supported by the
universe so that you feel likeyou are just magic, which is
(15:32):
really being in the right place,right time, being aligned with
the energetic environment thatyou're situated in.
So in this way we just lookedat, through the lens of
astrology, those two parts.
It is really easy and effectiveto look to your astrology chart
to understand the optimal codes,your optimal way of being with
(15:56):
each part of yourself in eacharea of your life, of being the
most yourself and the mostaligned with your purpose and
your energetic wiringessentially.
But knowing these can sometimesbe a trap for people.
If you're then comparingyourself, stressed out or
anxious around how far you arefrom that.
(16:18):
When that's really just half theequation, that tool is there and
available to give us half of theequation with those optimal
codes.
The other part of it is such abeyond your chart kind of place
that is just you beingabsolutely at peace with where
(16:38):
you are right now, how far alongyou are right now, what version
of yourself you are right now inthe present moment.
My first example, and I want toshare with you something that
I've been working on that I'm soexcited about that inspired me
to talk about this today is thatyes, I am all about decoding the
(16:59):
Cosmic Cheat Codes that areavailable to you to run your
business in the most fulfillingand successful way.
But that said, especially whenit comes to your relationship
with money, because money is amaterially manifest version of
energy flowing.
It has so many keys and codesand clues to help us understand
(17:24):
where we're at in general.
If you didn't listen to a recentepisode, Money as a Mirror,
that's an excellent one on thistopic.
But the reason that money issuch a great example of what I'm
talking about here today as wellis because when you really get
on track for right relationshipwith money, it actually isn't a
(17:44):
certain place that you get withit.
There's not an end of the road.
It's getting into an orientationwith it where you are reliably
able to grow your revenue, tomeet your growing desires and
vision for your life andassociated costs.
It is easy to see why it's soimportant to be okay with where
(18:07):
you are right now.
If you are only going to be ableto get to each next level, which
should be like stair steps orrungs on a ladder level, after
level, after level.
If you're only going to be ableto be in that flow, to create
that direction, that momentum,that ability, that capacity, and
(18:29):
that reliability, you need tomake it a normal state for you
to also be absolutely okay withwhere you are right now.
One thing that I find is peopleinside of Cosmic Currency, when
they use the tools that Iprovide there, to get super
crystal clear what that nextlevel version of your life and
(18:50):
business is that you're aimingfor.
How it'll make you feel, reallygetting inside of that desire
space that is motivating you,and to also get super clear
exactly how much you need to getthere.
Sometimes this brings up a lotfor people, not even at where
they're headed.
For a lot of people it's reallygetting honest with what your
(19:10):
bills are right now andrealizing that you're not there
and you don't actually bring inenough money to pay your bills,
whatever it is.
Often when you first startlooking that clearly at where
you're heading, where you wantto be, whether it's to meet your
bills right now or that nextlevel that you are aiming to
grow toward.
(19:31):
Oftentimes it brings up some notso fun and slightly funky
feelings.
Sometimes not so slightly funkyfeelings.
It can bring up a lot aroundthat you're not where you want
to be.
This is something that passes.
It does become a new normal.
You at least get morecomfortable for sure if you
start leaning in and looking atthose things on the regular, it
(19:52):
doesn't have that shock valuethat it may be first does.
If that's not something that younormally have in your awareness
consistently.
However, wherever you arerelative to your relationship
with that half of the equation,it is so important that as you
are allowing yourself not onlyto tune into what you want, but,
and especially, to expand yourcapacity for envisioning how far
(20:18):
and how big you want to get andgo.
You have to be able to be okaywith where you are right now,
and it can't just be a mantrathat you say.
Another excellent episode, ifyou haven't listened already is
Money Mantras as Gaslighting,because if you're just trying to
tell yourself something that youdon't believe and feel and know
(20:38):
in your bones, you're basicallygaslighting yourself, and that
is not an effective strategy.
You need to feel in the depth ofyour being bones and knowing
that where you are right nowmoney-wise or otherwise, is
exactly where you are meant tobe and how far along on the
(20:58):
ultimate bigger scope path ofyour life, you are exactly where
you're meant to be right now.
That's not just a trite thing tosay.
That is an orientation, acommitment to this principle.
Knowing that to get where youwant to go, you have to be okay
where you are.
It's not just a consolationprize.
Being present in the moment isstepping out of that timeline,
(21:22):
that 4D that other perspectivewhere you can see where you want
to go and where you've been, andisolating yourself in this
endlessly, trucking forward,present moment.
You are in one of those rightnow and then right now, and then
right now, and this one isexactly every bit of your
(21:43):
circumstance is exactly where onthat path you are meant to be
right now.
In the most reductive way tosettle our minds that might be
thinking otherwise, that has atendency to have anxiety about
the future, anxiety about thepast, and fear of the future, is
that you wouldn't be where youare right now if you hadn't been
(22:03):
where you were.
If it were not for your pasttrailing behind you, you
wouldn't be where you are now.
If it weren't for the futurethat you are aiming toward, you
wouldn't have progressed in theway that you have now.
You are poised in this presentmoment thanks to where you've
been and where you are aiming.
I'm going to zero in on theexample now that inside Cosmic
(22:26):
Currency we go into formallyCosmic Cash Codes, the parts of
your chart that show us whatyour ideal, optimal relationship
is with money flow to be asabundant as possible, to feel as
fulfilled as possible, to be assuccessful as possible.
(22:46):
To love what you do and makebank doing it.
I know these are big claims, butthe alternative is not being
aligned with your design andthat's not how it works when
you're there.
Knowing these is crucial foryour success, makes it the whole
journey that much more fun,helps you to avoid doing things
other people's way, strayingfrom your path.
(23:08):
But that said, and especiallywhen it comes to money, because
people hold so much shame andheaviness and wounding and
obstacles in the way of gettingto the optimal, ideal place they
would like to be with theirmoney game.
Maybe you can relate, and that'swhy I created the Cosmic Money
(23:29):
Style Quiz, formerly the MoneyAttachment Style Quiz.
That may sound more familiar toyou if you've already taken
that.
First of all, let me just gushfor a second.
So formerly had a differentname, formerly had different
archetypes that described theresult that you were, which
(23:50):
attachment style you are withmoney.
Which again, to ground this intowhat we're talking about here,
this is that other side.
Whereas the astrology codes ofyour chart show you your
potential with money andabundance, this quiz shows you
where you are right now and yourproximity from secure attachment
(24:12):
AKA financial security, AKAalignment with the cosmic codes
of your chart.
Which is exactly why I createdthis quiz because I want you to
be able to root into and beaware of and in relationship to
where you are right now becausethat half of the equation
matters just as much.
(24:34):
That's why I just put so muchlove, creativity, time into
upgrading the entire experienceof this quiz.
If you did already take thequiz, you likely by the time
this episode is airing, got anemail giving you all the new
goods, clueing you into the newdirection so that you don't miss
(24:57):
out on all of this new stuffthat's included for people that
now take the quiz.
If you haven't seen that, golook for emails from
lauren@cosmicbizwitch.com.
But you guys, for anyone thathas not taken the quiz, oh my
goodness the archetypes now, theresults are just so, oh gosh
(25:18):
what they evoke.
They evoke something totallydifferent.
You know what?
Let me just tell you what thearchetypes are.
Sorry for the spoiler, ruiningthat moment of surprise for
those of you that are going totake it, but it's just part of
my gush right now.
If you land as disorganized withmoney, you are the untethered
visionary.
If you land as anxious withmoney, you are the vigilant
(25:43):
nurturer.
If you land as avoidant withmoney, which is most of the
people that come to me forsupport, you are the sovereign
dreamer.
And if you are one of the fewthat are already in a secure
place with money, you are thegrounded builder.
The shifts are profound.
(26:05):
If you took this quiz before,you know how different these
feel.
My intention with them is reallyto connect you with
understanding the superpower ina sensationalized way, but in a
more neutral and grounded way,the way we've been talking about
just a really settled acceptanceof wherever you are.
(26:26):
Did any of those sound anythingbut awesome?
Good.
They're not.
They all are incredible placesto be.
They're wherever you are,whichever one you get is
wherever you are.
Getting to the practical side ofit, when we actually sit where
we are right now, besidesenergetically creating an
(26:47):
opening, that actually makes itpossible to get where we want to
go, we actually get so much ofwhat we need to get there.
We are able to get informationaround how far are we from where
we want to be, what does thatpath look like?
What are the steps that I needto take now that I know where I
am to get where I want to go?
I love the example and metaphorto ground this as well of GPS,
(27:13):
that in order to use maps to getanywhere, we need to give it two
pieces of information.
We need to tell it where we'reheaded, and we need to tell it
where we are right now.
If we can do that, it will giveus all kinds of different
routes.
If we get off track, it tells ushow to get back on track.
Y'all life is like this too.
As long as you are just asrooted in where you are right
(27:36):
now and aware of where that is,you're point A as where you're
trying to go and being superclear around what that
destination, that point B is.
Life like GPS will give you somany different routes to get
there and redirect you if youget off course.
I actually use this metaphorreally heavily in Cosmic
(27:57):
Currency with one of the toolsthat we use in there called your
WPS, your Wealth PositioningSystem.
That does exactly what we'retalking about here.
It makes it possible for youover and over again to reorient
yourself just like you wouldwith GPS, from where are you
(28:17):
right now, to where are youheaded?
And then the where that you'reheaded becomes eventually the
new where you are now and youset a new course.
And honestly, yeah, forcompliance and other excellent
reasons, you need to be keepingrecords for your business and I
have really accessible ways todo that.
(28:38):
Tools that I provide in CosmicCurrency that are also tailored
to how you are based on yourastrology because you need to be
doing it your way for it towork, or more importantly for
you to keep doing it right foryou to want to keep showing up.
If it's like every other moneysystem tried to use, you
probably aren't using it againanymore.
(28:59):
So we create systems that reallywork for you.
But a big part of going on thetransformational journey that is
Cosmic Currency is taking thisquiz and finding out where you
are right now so that youactually know the scope of the
journey.
Then once inside, and this is myother example, is how important
(29:20):
when it comes to your money itis to know what's up with your
numbers, where you are now, andwhere you're headed.
I hope that I did you a serviceby going through this topic in
the order that I did.
First grounding it, rooting it,expanding it into your
understanding of the magic, themystery and the magic behind how
(29:42):
this works.
Ultimately now rooting it intothe practical, knowing your
numbers is that magic for youand your business.
It's the same magic, and it'swhat makes it possible for you
to be really clear.
Both from a feeling state andfrom a numbers place, exactly
(30:03):
what you need to be bringing inright now and at the next level
you're aiming for.
Another example though outsideof money to really drive the
point home that this isliterally how growth happens in
any area, is think abouthealing, think about some of the
more trauma related, patternoriented shifts that you've been
(30:25):
able to make in your life.
Was it possible to get where youare now without first having a
visceral, very real experienceof having the ultimate
compassion and acceptance forwhere you were before that shift
was possible?
(30:46):
Absolutely not.
Absolutely not.
Or think about other people inyour life and the space that
you've been able to hold.
Think about partners that you'vehad, relationships that you've
been in where you weren'taccepting someone where they
were with you, and they werenever able to change.
Then think about ones thatyou've been in and experiences
(31:07):
that you've had with otherpeople where you genuinely feel
compassion and acceptance forwhere they are right now, and
the space that that has createdfor them to be able to evolve
and grow into the version ofthem that you knew was possible.
It works like that for them.
It works like that for you, andit works like that inside your
(31:29):
business with any skill you'retrying to develop or with any
earning level you are trying toreach.
Okay, I am bringing this to anend.
If you have not taken my quizyet, I'm actually really glad
when you go and take it now, notonly are you going to get your
result, you're going to get aneight page, beautiful, super
(31:52):
helpful, value packed PDF guidethat is your blueprint to get to
financial security, secureattachment with money.
Or if you're already there andthat's your result, how to let
that be the foundation, thelaunch pad to where you're going
next.
You're also going to get apersonal voice note, which I
(32:13):
like to call voiceys and are thebedrock of the way that I
interact with clients, withanyone these days, via telegram.
So I'm sending one of those yourway based on your results.
And oh my goodness, so muchmore.
Anyways, go take the quiz, findout what your attachment style
is with money.
(32:34):
The archetype that I've fleshedout for you to really be able to
own and accept exactly where youare right now and start to make
your way toward financialsecurity and to be able to play
your money game in a way thatactually feels awesome.
You can go to cosmicb.link/quiz.
(32:54):
After you get your results,reply to one of my emails, tell
me how it landed for you.
I would love some feedbackaround the new direction of the
Cosmic Money Style Quiz.
Today I want to talk aboutsomething that is lighting up as
(00:04):
such an obvious key and code andcrucial piece to success with
development of any kind, whetherit be personal or professional.
Anything that you are trying toimprove, make progress within,
get yourself from some point Ato point B, anything where
(00:26):
you're aiming higher or furtheror better.
There's something that's beencoming through for me right now
that I want to talk to and hitfrom multiple angles in this
episode, that just really feelslike the holy grail perspective
that makes this easy.
But also, to say it's obviousit's going to be when I talk
(00:50):
about it and illuminate it, butI also feel like it's something
that's so easy to forget.
Or get caught up in somethingother than, okay, so enough
circling around the thing.
What I want to talk about is howimportant it is to, not only be
(01:12):
tuned into where we're trying toget to.
Like the potential comparison ofhow far we are from there.
Focusing on and visualizing whatis this new place, this new
level, this new embodiment thatwe want to get to.
But that just as important and Ithink so often minimized in
(01:37):
relation to this eye on theprize fixation on where we want
to get to is being just asgrounded in and anchored to
where you are right now.
The angles that I want to comeat this around that really
illustrate the point, becausefor me to say that it's like,
(01:59):
oh, duh.
Right?
But when we really unpack thisand the far reaching and broad
scope, how many things thistouches, how many things this is
true for.
I think it really illuminatesthe power and the value of this
thing and why I feel so calledto speak about it today.
(02:20):
I want to look at it both from akind of inner game, personal
growth, personal developmentangle, also from a more
practical, money oriented orgamified point driven, more like
that kind of next leveling whenit comes to success.
I also want to ground it withsome very specific examples that
(02:44):
have been up for me and myclients that I want to share
with you either to support youdirectly, if you can see
yourself in these examples, orto offer a mirror for you to
triangulate and connect the dotsto something maybe you've been
trying to call in, somethingyou've been trying to make
(03:05):
happen for yourself, somewhereyou've been trying to get to,
something you've been trying toachieve, that has felt like it
has been eluding you.
I suspect that there issomething here for you in
remembering to apply thisimportant piece of being just as
grounded in where you are now toget where you want to go.
I want to start this out withmore of a feeling space of times
(03:30):
that I've landed in a veryspecific orientation toward my
relationship to the thing that Iwant, the thing that I'm calling
in, that ends up just collapsingtime.
When I end up getting what Iwant, when the shift happens,
when the stars realign, whensomething shifts so that finally
(03:52):
I get what I've been calling inor asking for.
I can always think back, notlong, right before to having
landed in a very particularfeeling state that I think
really illustrates the pointthat I'm trying to make here of
the more meaningful, moremysterious force behind why this
(04:15):
is so powerful.
I have the example of that therewas a pretty long amount of time
that I was starting to, thanksbiological clock, really
fantasize about family andchildren.
I wasn't in a relationship atthe time I was single.
I hadn't met my husband yet,which if you know me and know
(04:35):
that story, that all happenedvery quickly once I did meet
him.
But it was just something that Iwas really holding in my
awareness, my desires, my innerworld.
And as I'm sure you can probablyrelate to, for something that
felt really big, it felt like areally big ask.
Especially relative to the waysI had been in relationship
(04:59):
before the kind of version of mylife I had been living.
It just didn't seem to fit, butthe desire was there and the
wish, the seed of the wish hadbeen planted.
I had gone through variousstages with this that were like,
some of them ended up feelinglike it was like a process of
push and pull basically, wheresometimes I felt the longing or
(05:23):
the frustration of the proximityfrom, or any number of ways that
I just didn't feel fullyconfident in and aligned with
that ask and that it was on itsway to me.
There's different ways that wecan talk about this space, this
feeling space that I'm going tomention.
(05:44):
Although talking about them,similar to mantras when there's
no actual behaviors to back themup, are just baseless.
There's a state that youactually get to that makes it
feel so much more true than justsaying things like, it's on my
way to me, calling in thistimeline.
It is so, whatever your versionof speaking your belief and
(06:09):
trust and confidence in thatthat thing is coming.
There's a very different stateand place that we get to when we
actually feel it.
This example that I want tooffer is that, honestly and to
the point that I'm making, itreally was so far from a
striving or a longing.
In fact, when this momenthappened, in this example, I
(06:31):
wasn't even thinking about it amoment before.
There was no at that moment,conscious striving or trying.
An awareness lit up in me and Isuddenly notice I was driving
and I was in the front seat ofmy car and all of a sudden I
felt this profound sense ofpeace wash over me.
(06:53):
This is another one where, whatwords do we put to this?
But in every instance of thisplace, for me, it starts with, I
just feel so relaxed andsettled.
Feelings that come along withI'm exactly where I need to be,
when I need to be, zeroresistance to my current
(07:15):
reality, to life, to the presentmoment.
Just this pure, absolutealignment with the present
moment and feeling that in mybody.
The next thing I know, I sensethis little boy sitting behind
me in a car seat and a husbandsitting next to me in the
passenger seat.
Again, this was not somethingthat I had actively visualized
(07:38):
or had put effort intovisualizing.
It was just all of a sudden Igot to this feeling state that's
familiar to me.
The next thing I knew I washaving this feeling, sensual
hallucination of a son and ahusband in the car with me.
I even looked in the rear viewmirror and, anyways it's
(08:01):
familiar to me too, to thisspace that I get to between
sleeping and waking, where Ikind of half hallucinate things
and I have to check if they'rereal.
It's like that.
But in my waking life, obviouslyI was driving, I was fully awake
and aware.
It wasn't long after that beforeI met my husband, and then three
months into our relationship wewere pregnant, and then 10
(08:24):
months later my son was here.
I have had plenty of momentssince of having my husband in
the passenger seat and my son inthe backseat on the right side,
exactly where I saw him in thatvision.
These are the kind of momentsthat I absolutely live for.
I am not one to try to pin downthe magic behind what's
(08:46):
happening when this happens.
However, I do know there wassome serious magic at play, and
this isn't the only time thatI've experienced this.
There's like a connectionbetween two moments in time, a
future time, a timeline wherewhat I want is actually real,
and a present time where I am sopeacefully settled into exactly
(09:11):
where I am right now.
Nothing in me is, it's like thisspace that I find I eventually
get to when I'm callingsomething in after I've gone to
these other places of yearningand longing and impatience and
frustration, eventually I justlet that all go.
(09:32):
It's like I have to go throughall that first though.
Then on the other side of it, Ieventually get to a place of
absolute peace and acceptance.
That it's not here yet.
And it's not like a, I'm willingit to be, it's coming and I know
it is.
It's just I get to this reallypeaceful place of well, of
course it is.
There's no resistance to thetiming to that it's here or not
(09:55):
right now to anything at all inthis very moment.
It is when I finally arrive atthat place that there is some
kind of a real, felt embodiedconnection between present and
future time that brings that tome very quickly after.
The reason I wanted to tell thisstory first is just to ground us
(10:16):
here together, hopefully, andprobably as I was telling this
story, you thought of a versionand an example in your life of
where this has happened.
Maybe multiple, but maybe youdidn't make the connection that
that was that final catalyst,that final missing peace state
moment experience that had tohappen before you were able to
actually receive what you'vebeen asking for.
(10:39):
Now we're going to go into themore logical, practical side of
different areas of life andbusiness where this ends up
happening and working.
Obviously in my example offamily and children, that's a
big deal, milestone, rite ofpassage kind of thing.
But this actually happens allthe time and it's especially
(11:03):
important to be aware of in theareas where you really need to
keep this top of mind.
You need to be able to be inthose two places at once to
support the kind ofmanifestation engine that makes
momentum possible.
Obviously, ultimately, I'm goingto be grounding this into your
relationship with money, withscaling, with calling in more
(11:27):
revenue to meet bigger lifestyledesires and investment needs.
But that's not the only placethis happens.
And if you're a growth orientedperson, this is something you
have an awareness in everysector of your life of where you
would like to go and get to, ofwhere you're aiming next.
But before I zoom in onexamples, let's actually zoom
(11:50):
out to something that touches onthis around what makes each of
us unique and different.
And a way to understand how bothof these are true
simultaneously, at the sametime, for any area of your life,
anything that you're trying togrow, improve, evolve yourself
(12:12):
inside of.
That is the difference betweenthe optimal cheat code, most
aligned way for you to be withany part of yourself and in any
life area based on thereflection of your birth chart,
based on your astrology chart.
Based on your astrology andwhere you are right now, I think
(12:37):
that this is one thing thatdoesn't get really specifically
named and pointed to thatcreates a little bit of distrust
or just part of why astrology tosome is seen as woo instead of
the incredible ancient tool thatit is.
And that's that yeah, your chartis a snapshot of the energetic
(12:59):
matrix that imprinted upon youthe moment that you took your
first breath, the energetic homebase, that was the first
experience your body had ofcertain energy currents moving
through and grounding below you,moving through and grounding
into your reality, that wouldthen become your codes or
(13:22):
energetic signatures for howenergy wants to move through you
and ground into your reality.
But that said, obviously, youare not the same person that
takes your first breath as theversion of you that takes your
last breath or any of the manyversions of you that exist in
between.
So this thing that I'm talkingabout of being aware of where
(13:44):
you're headed and where you areright now, this is something
very interesting to overlayastrology over and the tools
that we have available.
On the one hand, there aredefinitely clues to the scope
and the territory that you mightmeander through when you are
(14:04):
less or more conscious, or moreor less further along,
developed, in any given area ofyour life.
My background is in evolutionaryastrology, so that is my jam.
We can see in a chart what itmight look like for you to be on
one end of the spectrum or theother, and then obviously a life
(14:24):
lived is going to meanderthroughout that space and
territory.
But my favorite way to useastrology, that's the most
efficient and practical,especially as a business owner
and for non astrologers, whichis why I frame astrology this
way, even though I'm anastrologer myself, is to really
(14:46):
isolate the codes that show youwhat your optimal way is, for
each of these planets, theseparts of you reflected with
planets, luminaries, and points.
What is the energetic signature?
How does that want to movethrough and embody?
Through you and where, what lifearea does that want to ground
(15:10):
into, so that you complete thatcircuit for yourself, so that
you feel the most fulfilled, sothat you are the most
successful, so that you feel themost inflow, and so that you
feel the most serendipitouslypronoia-like supported by the
universe so that you feel likeyou are just magic, which is
(15:32):
really being in the right place,right time, being aligned with
the energetic environment thatyou're situated in.
So in this way we just lookedat, through the lens of
astrology, those two parts.
It is really easy and effectiveto look to your astrology chart
to understand the optimal codes,your optimal way of being with
(15:56):
each part of yourself in eacharea of your life, of being the
most yourself and the mostaligned with your purpose and
your energetic wiringessentially.
But knowing these can sometimesbe a trap for people.
If you're then comparingyourself, stressed out or
anxious around how far you arefrom that.
(16:18):
When that's really just half theequation, that tool is there and
available to give us half of theequation with those optimal
codes.
The other part of it is such abeyond your chart kind of place
that is just you beingabsolutely at peace with where
(16:38):
you are right now, how far alongyou are right now, what version
of yourself you are right now inthe present moment.
My first example, and I want toshare with you something that
I've been working on that I'm soexcited about that inspired me
to talk about this today is thatyes, I am all about decoding the
(16:59):
Cosmic Cheat Codes that areavailable to you to run your
business in the most fulfillingand successful way.
But that said, especially whenit comes to your relationship
with money, because money is amaterially manifest version of
energy flowing.
It has so many keys and codesand clues to help us understand
(17:24):
where we're at in general.
If you didn't listen to a recentepisode, Money as a Mirror,
that's an excellent one on thistopic.
But the reason that money issuch a great example of what I'm
talking about here today as wellis because when you really get
on track for right relationshipwith money, it actually isn't a
(17:44):
certain place that you get withit.
There's not an end of the road.
It's getting into an orientationwith it where you are reliably
able to grow your revenue, tomeet your growing desires and
vision for your life andassociated costs.
It is easy to see why it's soimportant to be okay with where
(18:07):
you are right now.
If you are only going to be ableto get to each next level, which
should be like stair steps orrungs on a ladder level, after
level, after level.
If you're only going to be ableto be in that flow, to create
that direction, that momentum,that ability, that capacity, and
(18:29):
that reliability, you need tomake it a normal state for you
to also be absolutely okay withwhere you are right now.
One thing that I find is peopleinside of Cosmic Currency, when
they use the tools that Iprovide there, to get super
crystal clear what that nextlevel version of your life and
(18:50):
business is that you're aimingfor.
How it'll make you feel, reallygetting inside of that desire
space that is motivating you,and to also get super clear
exactly how much you need to getthere.
Sometimes this brings up a lotfor people, not even at where
they're headed.
For a lot of people it's reallygetting honest with what your
(19:10):
bills are right now andrealizing that you're not there
and you don't actually bring inenough money to pay your bills,
whatever it is.
Often when you first startlooking that clearly at where
you're heading, where you wantto be, whether it's to meet your
bills right now or that nextlevel that you are aiming to
grow toward.
(19:31):
Oftentimes it brings up some notso fun and slightly funky
feelings.
Sometimes not so slightly funkyfeelings.
It can bring up a lot aroundthat you're not where you want
to be.
This is something that passes.
It does become a new normal.
You at least get morecomfortable for sure if you
start leaning in and looking atthose things on the regular, it
(19:52):
doesn't have that shock valuethat it may be first does.
If that's not something that younormally have in your awareness
consistently.
However, wherever you arerelative to your relationship
with that half of the equation,it is so important that as you
are allowing yourself not onlyto tune into what you want, but,
and especially, to expand yourcapacity for envisioning how far
(20:18):
and how big you want to get andgo.
You have to be able to be okaywith where you are right now,
and it can't just be a mantrathat you say.
Another excellent episode, ifyou haven't listened already is
Money Mantras as Gaslighting,because if you're just trying to
tell yourself something that youdon't believe and feel and know
(20:38):
in your bones, you're basicallygaslighting yourself, and that
is not an effective strategy.
You need to feel in the depth ofyour being bones and knowing
that where you are right nowmoney-wise or otherwise, is
exactly where you are meant tobe and how far along on the
(20:58):
ultimate bigger scope path ofyour life, you are exactly where
you're meant to be right now.
That's not just a trite thing tosay.
That is an orientation, acommitment to this principle.
Knowing that to get where youwant to go, you have to be okay
where you are.
It's not just a consolationprize.
Being present in the moment isstepping out of that timeline,
(21:22):
that 4D that other perspectivewhere you can see where you want
to go and where you've been, andisolating yourself in this
endlessly, trucking forward,present moment.
You are in one of those rightnow and then right now, and then
right now, and this one isexactly every bit of your
(21:43):
circumstance is exactly where onthat path you are meant to be
right now.
In the most reductive way tosettle our minds that might be
thinking otherwise, that has atendency to have anxiety about
the future, anxiety about thepast, and fear of the future, is
that you wouldn't be where youare right now if you hadn't been
(22:03):
where you were.
If it were not for your pasttrailing behind you, you
wouldn't be where you are now.
If it weren't for the futurethat you are aiming toward, you
wouldn't have progressed in theway that you have now.
You are poised in this presentmoment thanks to where you've
been and where you are aiming.
I'm going to zero in on theexample now that inside Cosmic
(22:26):
Currency we go into formallyCosmic Cash Codes, the parts of
your chart that show us whatyour ideal, optimal relationship
is with money flow to be asabundant as possible, to feel as
fulfilled as possible, to be assuccessful as possible.
(22:46):
To love what you do and makebank doing it.
I know these are big claims, butthe alternative is not being
aligned with your design andthat's not how it works when
you're there.
Knowing these is crucial foryour success, makes it the whole
journey that much more fun,helps you to avoid doing things
other people's way, strayingfrom your path.
(23:08):
But that said, and especiallywhen it comes to money, because
people hold so much shame andheaviness and wounding and
obstacles in the way of gettingto the optimal, ideal place they
would like to be with theirmoney game.
Maybe you can relate, and that'swhy I created the Cosmic Money
(23:29):
Style Quiz, formerly the MoneyAttachment Style Quiz.
That may sound more familiar toyou if you've already taken
that.
First of all, let me just gushfor a second.
So formerly had a differentname, formerly had different
archetypes that described theresult that you were, which
(23:50):
attachment style you are withmoney.
Which again, to ground this intowhat we're talking about here,
this is that other side.
Whereas the astrology codes ofyour chart show you your
potential with money andabundance, this quiz shows you
where you are right now and yourproximity from secure attachment
(24:12):
AKA financial security, AKAalignment with the cosmic codes
of your chart.
Which is exactly why I createdthis quiz because I want you to
be able to root into and beaware of and in relationship to
where you are right now becausethat half of the equation
matters just as much.
(24:34):
That's why I just put so muchlove, creativity, time into
upgrading the entire experienceof this quiz.
If you did already take thequiz, you likely by the time
this episode is airing, got anemail giving you all the new
goods, clueing you into the newdirection so that you don't miss
(24:57):
out on all of this new stuffthat's included for people that
now take the quiz.
If you haven't seen that, golook for emails from
lauren@cosmicbizwitch.com.
But you guys, for anyone thathas not taken the quiz, oh my
goodness the archetypes now, theresults are just so, oh gosh
(25:18):
what they evoke.
They evoke something totallydifferent.
You know what?
Let me just tell you what thearchetypes are.
Sorry for the spoiler, ruiningthat moment of surprise for
those of you that are going totake it, but it's just part of
my gush right now.
If you land as disorganized withmoney, you are the untethered
visionary.
If you land as anxious withmoney, you are the vigilant
(25:43):
nurturer.
If you land as avoidant withmoney, which is most of the
people that come to me forsupport, you are the sovereign
dreamer.
And if you are one of the fewthat are already in a secure
place with money, you are thegrounded builder.
The shifts are profound.
(26:05):
If you took this quiz before,you know how different these
feel.
My intention with them is reallyto connect you with
understanding the superpower ina sensationalized way, but in a
more neutral and grounded way,the way we've been talking about
just a really settled acceptanceof wherever you are.
(26:26):
Did any of those sound anythingbut awesome?
Good.
They're not.
They all are incredible placesto be.
They're wherever you are,whichever one you get is
wherever you are.
Getting to the practical side ofit, when we actually sit where
we are right now, besidesenergetically creating an
(26:47):
opening, that actually makes itpossible to get where we want to
go, we actually get so much ofwhat we need to get there.
We are able to get informationaround how far are we from where
we want to be, what does thatpath look like?
What are the steps that I needto take now that I know where I
am to get where I want to go?
I love the example and metaphorto ground this as well of GPS,
(27:13):
that in order to use maps to getanywhere, we need to give it two
pieces of information.
We need to tell it where we'reheaded, and we need to tell it
where we are right now.
If we can do that, it will giveus all kinds of different
routes.
If we get off track, it tells ushow to get back on track.
Y'all life is like this too.
As long as you are just asrooted in where you are right
(27:36):
now and aware of where that is,you're point A as where you're
trying to go and being superclear around what that
destination, that point B is.
Life like GPS will give you somany different routes to get
there and redirect you if youget off course.
I actually use this metaphorreally heavily in Cosmic
(27:57):
Currency with one of the toolsthat we use in there called your
WPS, your Wealth PositioningSystem.
That does exactly what we'retalking about here.
It makes it possible for youover and over again to reorient
yourself just like you wouldwith GPS, from where are you
(28:17):
right now, to where are youheaded?
And then the where that you'reheaded becomes eventually the
new where you are now and youset a new course.
And honestly, yeah, forcompliance and other excellent
reasons, you need to be keepingrecords for your business and I
have really accessible ways todo that.
(28:38):
Tools that I provide in CosmicCurrency that are also tailored
to how you are based on yourastrology because you need to be
doing it your way for it towork, or more importantly for
you to keep doing it right foryou to want to keep showing up.
If it's like every other moneysystem tried to use, you
probably aren't using it againanymore.
(28:59):
So we create systems that reallywork for you.
But a big part of going on thetransformational journey that is
Cosmic Currency is taking thisquiz and finding out where you
are right now so that youactually know the scope of the
journey.
Then once inside, and this is myother example, is how important
(29:20):
when it comes to your money itis to know what's up with your
numbers, where you are now, andwhere you're headed.
I hope that I did you a serviceby going through this topic in
the order that I did.
First grounding it, rooting it,expanding it into your
understanding of the magic, themystery and the magic behind how
(29:42):
this works.
Ultimately now rooting it intothe practical, knowing your
numbers is that magic for youand your business.
It's the same magic, and it'swhat makes it possible for you
to be really clear.
Both from a feeling state andfrom a numbers place, exactly
(30:03):
what you need to be bringing inright now and at the next level
you're aiming for.
Another example though outsideof money to really drive the
point home that this isliterally how growth happens in
any area, is think abouthealing, think about some of the
more trauma related, patternoriented shifts that you've been
(30:25):
able to make in your life.
Was it possible to get where youare now without first having a
visceral, very real experienceof having the ultimate
compassion and acceptance forwhere you were before that shift
was possible?
(30:46):
Absolutely not.
Absolutely not.
Or think about other people inyour life and the space that
you've been able to hold.
Think about partners that you'vehad, relationships that you've
been in where you weren'taccepting someone where they
were with you, and they werenever able to change.
Then think about ones thatyou've been in and experiences
(31:07):
that you've had with otherpeople where you genuinely feel
compassion and acceptance forwhere they are right now, and
the space that that has createdfor them to be able to evolve
and grow into the version ofthem that you knew was possible.
It works like that for them.
It works like that for you, andit works like that inside your
(31:29):
business with any skill you'retrying to develop or with any
earning level you are trying toreach.
Okay, I am bringing this to anend.
If you have not taken my quizyet, I'm actually really glad
when you go and take it now, notonly are you going to get your
result, you're going to get aneight page, beautiful, super
(31:52):
helpful, value packed PDF guidethat is your blueprint to get to
financial security, secureattachment with money.
Or if you're already there andthat's your result, how to let
that be the foundation, thelaunch pad to where you're going
next.
You're also going to get apersonal voice note, which I
(32:13):
like to call voiceys and are thebedrock of the way that I
interact with clients, withanyone these days, via telegram.
So I'm sending one of those yourway based on your results.
And oh my goodness, so muchmore.
Anyways, go take the quiz, findout what your attachment style
is with money.
(32:34):
The archetype that I've fleshedout for you to really be able to
own and accept exactly where youare right now and start to make
your way toward financialsecurity and to be able to play
your money game in a way thatactually feels awesome.
You can go to cosmicb.link/quiz.
(32:54):
After you get your results,reply to one of my emails, tell
me how it landed for you.
I would love some feedbackaround the new direction of the
