Hey, it's Vanessa and welcome to a new conversation on energy.
This one is going to be on this full moon and the new you.
So as I make this, it is May 23rd, 2024.
If you happen to find this video though at any other point in time,
simply means that there's info in here that is going to be relevant and resonant for you.
(00:23):
So please do keep tuning in. in also full
moon energies or any big astrological
configuration they tend to have i'm saying like playback pushback support smack
down like they have a lot of energies in the two to three days leading up to
(00:43):
it and then the two to three days after so even if you catch this a
little bit after you're golden, keep tuning in.
This message is for you right now.
Right, before we get into the details of this full moon and the new you,
as always, I want to welcome you here. Thank you so much for tuning in.
I do appreciate your presence and I really love when you like,
(01:06):
comment, subscribe, click to get notifications and share with your friends all
that good social media stuff that gets us out to more of my people.
I do appreciate that greatly.
And also, I'm really glad that you're here tuning in to this conversation,
whether you are new or returning, welcome.
(01:28):
My name is Vanessa. I should do a little intro because, you know,
isn't it funny when we introduce ourselves.
Even if we've known people before, we're always in this evolution of becoming
the most authentic version of ourselves. selves.
And it's always in flux. It's always getting refined.
(01:49):
And I feel like even today, even in the course of this day, there's been an evolution for me.
And like three different versions of myself have been at the helm.
And that's a bit of what inspired the topic around the new you.
It's one that I talk about actually quite frequently because we are very much
(02:12):
in a spiritual identity upgrade process right now.
And it's bringing up, you know, not only a lot of new possibilities for us,
but it's also clearing out all of these old versions of ourselves and everything
that is associated with that old version of ourselves.
So it can be quite an uncomfortable time on multiple levels for people in this process.
(02:37):
Much empathy and support for that. I understand 100%. But I don't want to get
into too many details quite yet before I invite you into the energy guide program.
This is really designed to get you not just in touch with the higher purpose
of your energy sensitivity and give you the tools to help really navigate life energetically,
(03:00):
your personal individual life, as well as these larger collective energetics
that are going on right now.
It's also designed Designed to really get you connected with the larger reason
that you are here on the planet right now.
There really is a purpose for your existence.
You are meant to be an active, conscious participant in the game that is happening right now.
(03:21):
You're here to shift the paradigm, right? You're here to create the new.
That was what you were born for. That's why you chose to show up at this point in time.
At least the people in my crew, right? If this doesn't resonate with you,
then just drop it and move on.
It's okay. there's lots to choose from online
okay so in the energy guide program
(03:42):
we go over a ton of different you know really
wonderful content around energy navigating energy all of that you can see all
the details on my site basmith.com slash energy dash guide registration is open
for a short period of time more otherwise i offer it once a year and you can
get on the wait list for next year but but definitely go check it out.
(04:03):
I have a feeling that if you are watching any of my content online that the
program will absolutely speak to you.
So if it's for you, please do join.
All right, let's get into the topic at hand, which is this full moon and the new you.
I'm going to start with the full moon because it is today.
(04:25):
And what I'll be sharing with you in this This recording is the energies that
I am tuning into associated with this full moon.
And how to work with those energies, what to pay attention to around those energies.
And then we're going to connect that to the new you because they're very much connected right now.
(04:47):
So let's go over this full moon.
I hope I said full moon. I think I said new moon, but it's a full moon and it's
a full moon, a Sagittarius full moon.
Sagittarius is, I'm a Sag rising.
I don't know if any of you, if any of you are sun, moon, or rising in Sagittarius,
(05:09):
let me know in the comments below.
If you don't know, you can always look up your birth chart online and find that out.
I always refer to channynicholas.com because I just love her layout, no affiliation.
It's just, I like the way that she explains everything.
And Sagittarius for me is about buoyancy and travel and adventure.
(05:33):
And it's just this energy that is really engaged with life.
So we've got this full moon in Sagittarius. Full moons are about illumination.
They are bringing up whatever is underneath the surface for you.
And that's the nature of that. The Sagittarius sign is ruled by Jupiter.
(05:54):
Jupiter is about expansion and good luck and good fortune and yeah,
just this real sense of spaciousness, which is lovely to feel in connection
with the buoyancy and the travel and the adventure vibe of Sagittarius.
(06:16):
However, these are happening I mean, in the month or in, yeah,
astrological month, Gemini.
Gemini is all about, there's two sides to every story.
They're kind of like polar opposites in some way. It's the twins, right?
And so Gemini is like very mental, very loves to bring in new information,
(06:38):
has a message to share, must talk, must speak. Right.
Yeah, it's just very like engaged with life. It's very social.
So there's a lot of very like positive kind of buoyant energy around this configuration
with the full moon right now.
If you aren't feeling that, it is okay. However you feel is valid.
(07:02):
Just know the whole point, I mean, honestly,
of talking about energy in general is that
when there's these either collective
or cosmic like astrology energies at
play that we can use
that information to to create an opening for ourselves to create a new expression
(07:28):
or experience of life that's really the the opportunity that they give us and
because it helps break us out of the patterned way of thinking,
the soul's, we don't realize how programmed we are, how habitual we are.
I mean, maybe to a degree, but I think your mind would honestly be blown if
(07:50):
you realize just how rote you respond to life.
I say this from the perspective of doing inner work myself and,
you know, being surprised at where I didn't realize I was holding on to some
programming and patterns,
also being in having my own transformational business and working with clients,
(08:12):
guiding them through their transformational process.
You know, it's always illuminating like, oh my gosh, we were still operating
from this level of constriction.
There's nothing wrong with having a program or a pattern. it's
just more the the lack of
awareness around how we're operating and the lack of conscious choosing and
(08:37):
so when you become aware of like whoa this is the tendency that I am holding
in my space that makes complete sense why x y and z is working out the way it
is or why I feel limited in this way.
So it's really super liberating. It's very triggering, or it can be,
but it's also very, very liberating to realize whatever programs and patterns and tendencies are.
(09:03):
There's many ways to find out that information, but the way that I'm wired,
for those of you that don't know, I see energy.
I read energy. I see energy. I hear energy. Energy shows up to me in multiple
ways. it is more real to me than physical reality.
And it makes for a very colorful experience of life.
But basically, it's the sort of like the empath way of knowing when somebody else is BSing you.
(09:31):
Except at my level, I can see exactly specifically how they are BSing me and
what's underneath the surface of why they're BSing me and how I need to respond
to the dynamic of them BSing me.
So it's, I mean, that's one more extreme example, but essentially,
yeah, so I can see the programming, the structuring, the constriction,
(09:53):
the fragmentation, the discord that we hold in our energy field,
in our body, around our mind.
And yeah, I kind of went off on a bit of a tangent there, but this is the time
where we are meant to become aware of that.
Our matrix is literally deconstructing right now, our own personal matrix, right?
(10:17):
And then we live in this larger collective matrix as well that has a particular
system and structure to it.
But as we deconstruct personally, and we become aware of these programs and
patterns, then we consciously choose to shift them.
And then we regulate our nervous system. And then we choose to connect with new people in new ways.
(10:38):
And people that have already been in our lives in new ways.
As we do that, we begin to consciously participate in the larger collective
shift that's happening.
So it really is, yeah, the nature of this time because of how energy is shifting.
(10:59):
How consciousness is expanding.
That's the impact that it has on us.
It's kind of like, yeah, unless you sort of wake up to that reality, you feel yourself.
Becoming less and less alive, right?
First, it starts off as I'm stuck, but then it moves into I feel more and more dead.
(11:23):
It's sort of a zombified awake state, right?
It's actually like if you look at people energetically, you can see where people
have just zombified. They are checked out.
And that's not the game I'm playing. I'm here, I am in the body,
and I am paying attention to what's happening in my inner world and the outer
world from an energetic perspective.
(11:44):
So back to this full moon, I went off on a tangent there.
But back to this full moon, the full moon is giving us this this really open
door opportunity to say, wow, there's this there's this buoyant,
adventurous travel kind of energy, like there's this new,
spaciousness that I feel there's this expansion that's wanting to come through me.
(12:09):
There's this desire to connect with new information
gemini that expands my consciousness there's
a desire for me to show up and share with new perspectives and new ways and
there's also a desire to show up and share and reinforce what it is that i really
stand for what my truth really is so these are the kind of energies that are
(12:31):
moving through right now around this full moon time if If you feel that rise in you,
you may notice some body sensations like, I'm sweating.
Like this week, I've been sweating so much. I'm not a huge sweater.
But this week, there's just been so much energy moving through my system.
Let it. There's nothing wrong with you. You are moving energy.
(12:55):
Trust the process. So some of the other themes that I wanted to share with you
that I'm getting energetically around this full moon is I've mentioned the spaciousness
probably about 20 times because that's how it feels.
And it's associated with Jupiter. Also, there's some element energetically around.
(13:21):
An awareness landing in a new way.
There's something that you get more cellularly, energetically.
It's just something that you've been either already knew or have been chewing
on for a while it's like it's all of a sudden it makes sense and it's it's a little less,
(13:43):
like an aha moment because you know those aha
moments are a little bit like peak moments where you're like what mind blown
i had never thought of it like that before that's kind of a gemini thing in
general but there's something about the energy where it's like a circling back
to just something that you already knew was true,
(14:04):
but it feels different.
It feels different.
Wow. Oh, oh, that's what that means.
That's what that feels like. Oh, okay.
So that's part of this full moon energy.
(14:28):
And then there was, this one's a little bit packed of an energy theme,
but it came through really strongly is that there's this partnership, right?
Because Gemini has this twin energy that are like very polar opposite.
I don't know if you have any Geminis in your life, but they can be.
I've had a few here and there over the years.
(14:49):
Sometimes they get referred to, and don't throw a shoe at me,
but like Jekyll and Hyde a bit, like you're
like i love this person then next you're like oh who are
you like you're totally not who you portray yourself to be so it's like this
very i dated a guy actually once that was a gemini and i before i knew about
astrology and then once i learned about astrology i was like oh my gosh this
(15:11):
makes so much sense to me now why it felt like he was literally two different people,
yeah so there's this this underlying energy
with the full mood around releasing and
reclaiming do you like feel how those are so different like releasing is just
this you know it's like you can you can take the piece of paper and just be
(15:35):
like yeah it's done it's done we're done bye-bye release it but at the same
time there's a reclaiming it's like,
I guess I'll take this now. Thank you very much.
So there's a release and a reclaim, which is, these are energies that we talk a lot about.
In the healing journey or in the spiritual awakening process,
(15:58):
release, reclaim, release, reclaim.
But let me tell you what those are really about from an energetic perspective.
Releasing is actually about boundaries, which sounds funny, right?
Because you're letting something go and isn't boundaries around something you're holding on to? Yes.
Boundaries really set the standard. They say, this is no longer acceptable in
(16:22):
my reality. I no longer allow for this.
I no longer subscribe to this. Bye-bye.
We are done. That's a boundary. And boundaries can look like many different things.
Obviously, there's many iterations of how that could get expressed.
Rest but essentially when you draw a boundary around what your standards and
(16:45):
your values are and how which is
you know ideally should be based on your self-worth and your self-regard,
what that does is it releases that which is not a match so oh you you're not
able you or this This pattern that I'm doing doesn't fit this standard that I now hold for myself.
(17:10):
Okay, well, then it's time for some partying because, you know,
we're in a leveling, not a leveling up, but we're in expansion game,
right? We're in an evolution game.
And if you're playing a certain way, like, it's okay that sometimes relationships shift.
And sometimes, you know, you're meant to just move on. People are meant to grow
(17:34):
together, and if they can't, then...
You know, if you're dedicated to growth and the other person is not,
you're always going to be compromising yourself to match down to that which
they refuse to do. Is that acceptable for you?
Or even for yourself, your relationship with yourself. Like I,
for me personally, I've been really wanting to develop a new exercise habit
(18:01):
routine, do some strength training.
And it's been really challenging for me to like create a habit around this.
And so in order for me to do that, I need to draw a boundary around what I'm
no longer willing to do and what I am willing to do.
And so I need to really release that part of me that is inconsistent.
(18:23):
Release that part of me that is set on continually saying, I have no energy to exercise.
I have to choose to release that, or I get to choose to release that.
This is sometimes easier said than done, but you know, it's,
it's, it's about, you know, do you respect the boundaries that you set for yourself
(18:44):
and do other people, do, do other people respect those boundaries as well?
And if not, maybe it's time to release them.
And then the reclaiming that is actually about the energy of of directness, directing the energy.
It's like, I am reaching to reclaim something into my life, an energy,
(19:04):
a person, you know, whatever it is that I am reclaiming this now.
But as you do that, it's you directing the energy. It's you saying,
I want this, thank you. It's not just an intention.
Intentions are lovely, and I highly support you having intentions in general.
But a directedness, this is what life is asking us to do like can you direct
(19:27):
the energy what are you choosing to hold and express your frequency at I say
that let's take a sip of water here.
I say that partially with a smile because this week has been really challenging for me.
You can't really tell in this moment, but my energy has felt so low this week.
(19:47):
I've had to take a lot of naps. I finally recovered from what felt like a perpetually ongoing cold.
And then I just felt sapped, I mean, completely.
And even earlier today, I recorded another share, which was about keeping the faith.
If you look at the energy of that video versus the energy of this video,
(20:11):
it's very different. And they're literally a couple of hours apart.
So I really do understand that, you know, so much can change in the day.
So much can change depending on where our intention and our directedness goes.
Like I was, I was not planning on making this video. I was like,
yeah, it's just a full moon. We'll move on.
I don't need to talk about this. but then there was something in me that was
(20:34):
like direct the energy Vanessa what do you really want here what do you really
want to say to people who do you really want to be speaking to if you can do
absolutely anything right now and the result would be you feeling really strong and good,
what would that be and the earlier version of myself would have said I don't
(20:55):
know I just want to sit outside and stare at a tree but there was something
in me in this moment that was like I want to make a video.
I'm going to make a video. So here I am making this for you.
I'm glad I did because that choice completely, it was like a Cinderella moment, right?
(21:17):
You're just like feeling poor and sorry for yourself.
And I mean, I was in a pretty solid space. I was just a lot more mellow,
but just like very chill.
And, but it felt like a Cinderella moment because as soon as I made the decision
of like, this is how I want to direct the energy right now.
I felt like, you know, that moment in the movie where it's, there's like a swirl
(21:42):
of energy around her and she goes from these rags to these riches into this
beautiful dress and spoken,
by the way, from a, I'm not, I'm not out here to like promote Disney or anything like that.
I could say a few choice words about that. But I will say I did used to have
a job as a professional princess, where I would dress up in full gown and the wig and the makeup.
(22:07):
And I would go to kids' birthday parties and sing and dance and do face painting
and do magic shows and things of that nature.
I worked for a company called Magic Princess.
It was honestly one of the best jobs I've ever had.
I have so many great stories to tell you about that. I'll save that for another other day though.
So yeah, that's how it felt to make that directed decision around this is how
(22:32):
I want to invest my energy right now.
So be direct with how you want to invest your energy.
And like I said, that doesn't mean that you have to be like all showy like I'm being at the moment.
I mean, this is just part of my natural personality.
This is an expression of me doing something that I I really love.
(22:54):
It's going to look different for everybody.
I just happen to love making videos.
I think I shared, I wasn't on any of my own recordings that I was a guest on
somebody else's podcast.
And I was just telling the story of when I was in high school,
I really wanted to, I really wanted to have video camera.
(23:14):
And I remember telling my dad, I was like, why?
It's like why do you want that and this is obviously way before smartphones
and all this like buy a video camera was 200 something and it was only the kind
that you held on your shoulder.
And yeah he didn't really get it I think I was 17 at the time and I didn't I told him I said I
(23:36):
don't know he's like well but what are you gonna do with it I'm like I have
no idea maybe create my own TV show or something?
And he's like, how is that possible?
So this was obviously, I don't know, when was it?
1890 or something like that so obviously it was
a long time ago but that's just to
(23:58):
say that these seeds always exist when
within us that are like directing us
towards what we love like i i i feel like i've said this a million times but
i have had these little signs on my wall saying when all else fails make a video
because for me it's like my healing balm my medicine i just i really love to
(24:21):
do it. It's really fun for me.
Okay, so back to the full moon energy.
The very last piece that was like coming in around the underlying energetics
for this full moon is to let it be so.
Whatever that is, whatever that means, whatever that means.
(24:41):
So if it's a desire that you wish to have, let it be so. Allow it in.
If it's something really challenging happening in your life that you have a
lot of resistance to, a lot of reaction to, just let it be so.
Let it be so. It's kind of like, it's grace, right? Just take your hands off,
(25:03):
man. You're not the only one in control here.
You have more support than you realize. You really, really do.
And grace, grace on all of us.
We're not doing this life thing alone. We aren't. I know it appears that way
from a physical perspective, but it's very far from the truth energetically and spiritually.
(25:27):
So lean into that. Let whatever reality you're currently working with,
let it be so. And, you know, it's kind of like,
I don't know. There's some people that say, give it up to God. That works for you.
Beautiful. Do it. If that another version is like, trust the universe.
Great. Go there. Just let it be so. Like, drop your resistance, drop your attachment.
(25:53):
Let life, let life just move through you.
You know like you get
to express the uniqueness of you in this human
suit that you're currently in but like
allow it to move you know we it's just we don't realize how much we suppress
ourselves and mask and like exist in all these distorted patterns and i don't
(26:18):
know about you but i'm feeling done with that so we're gonna move on to this
because it's a perfect segue into
the new you the new you so this full moon and the new you the new you the pieces
that came through around this because again like i said we are in a spiritual
identity upgrade right now there's many reasons for this it has to do with the
(26:41):
energy systems that are shifting within our,
you know being it also has to do with the consciousness expansion that's going
on right now Now, there's many different reasons.
There's a timeline, how do you call, convergence that's going on right now as well.
So there's new, the veils are thinning.
(27:03):
There's many different factors that are at play when it comes to this new you.
And you can see in just a brief recap of the energies of this full moon,
spaciousness, insights that are
landing in a new deeper kind of way releasing
and reclaiming slash boundaries and directed and directedness and then letting
(27:29):
it be so right these are all energetic qualities that might literally construct
a new version of you like imagine that who you are right now
or who you've been being,
all of a sudden felt this sense of spaciousness.
(27:51):
There was spaciousness there. You had room to breathe. You had space between your thoughts.
There's space between your words. There's space between your activities.
That'd be a new version of you you know imagine
that the you
that you've been being that somehow these
(28:15):
insights that you've had or these understandings of life begin to land in you
in a new way like your your perspective shifts and you really really get something
on a deep deep level that's a new you.
The release and reclaim, the boundaries and directiveness requires a new version
(28:38):
of you to be able to set those standards,
to be able to enact that in your life, to release something that you've been
holding on to, to reclaim something that you know is truly important to you.
You need a new you to do that. It's a new you that's going to do that.
And then letting it be so, how much time have you spent in reaction or resistance
(29:01):
or being triggered or staying stuck or, you know, perhaps you know exactly what
it is that you're here to do on the planet,
but you are like slowing down the process or sabotaging the process.
If you let it be so wherever you're at in that journey, that's a new you.
(29:21):
So all of the energies around this full moon right now really lend themselves
to the creation, the expression, the emergence of the new you.
So I want to talk about that for a moment and then we'll move on and then we'll close out.
So the new you, the version of you that created what you are currently experiencing
(29:47):
is not the version of you that can take you to what you want to experience next.
Next. It's just not.
That's why sometimes you get to where you currently are and you're like,
okay, now this space is feeling a little too small for me.
This impulse will rise in you that says, I need more spaciousness.
(30:13):
I need a different reality.
I want consistent results in this way. I want this kind of relationship,
like that desire to grow and to expand and to experience something new.
That is a reflection of your soul, right?
And so we want to, and when we don't listen to that, we generally end up making
(30:35):
ourselves sick and or miserable, right?
So in order to kind of move into that next stage of whatever that looks like
for you, it requires a new version of Now,
that new version of you doesn't just have the seed of what could be possible next.
It definitely has a seed. The seed comes with the package, but that new version
(31:01):
of you also has the receptivity to receive it.
Meaning, like, the old version of you would be like, wait, what's happening?
Oh, no, like, that doesn't feel quite right. Like, they're not prepped to receive.
The new version of you is like, ah, yes, that sounds good. Thank you.
(31:22):
I received that. I accept that.
The new version of you also has the know-how.
Because it's not only the integration of all of your past versions of you,
but it is you know it's kind of like the alchemy
of the power of a group right
so it's like the energy of putting three
(31:44):
people together is far different far
more complex far more profound far
more beautiful it's just it has an energy all of its own the group energy than
it does if it was one single person staying with the new version of you the
new version of you is like this just all the versions of yourself, integrated,
(32:08):
combined, and then a whole new energy arises out of that.
So you're just, you're operating at a completely different template of how to exist in the world.
Comes with new practices, new perceptions, new language, all of that.
And the new you also has the i want to say the passion and the dedication and the fire to,
(32:36):
continue down the path right the old you doesn't the old you is like this is
new i don't know this territory you know you probably go back into your primal
brain where you're like yeah you know i'm more in a fight or flight mode might
you know your nervous system might get dysregulated if the old
version of you tried to walk on the new path.
(32:57):
I mean, good luck. Let me know if that works. It's never worked for me.
So life is really interesting because it really does call you to continue to upgrade and expand.
And if you're feeling stuck, it is very likely that there is a new version of
you in your being, in your energy field that is like, let me out of this cage.
(33:21):
And I'll tell you briefly, I used to work with this. I had a mentor for eight
years. Her name was Tara.
And she taught me so much. She's like in my memory, she's still teaching me.
And when I first met her, there's a whole story associated with that.
I'll save that for another day.
(33:42):
But I remember literally the first day I met with her, she was medical intuitive,
homeopath, psychic, all of these pieces together and combined in this fiery redhead.
And she just kept looking at me because I was miserable.
I was miserable and depressed and stuck and really stuck, really, really stuck.
(34:05):
And also simultaneously knew that I was here for a reason, didn't know what
that reason was, felt like I was supposed to contribute to some sort of collective shift.
Mind you, this was in the year 2000, so it's quite a while ago.
But there was this passion and this desire in me and this lack of clarity,
lack of confidence and really feeling terribly, terribly disempowered and stuck.
(34:31):
Which is, as an aside, funny because sometimes
I want to make all these I used to market
my business around like speaking to the stuck people and
I realized like that's actually not totally my wheelhouse I was just trying
to save a version of myself from way back when so it really does serve you to
(34:51):
connect with the people you're meant to be connecting with rather than trying
to save an old version of yourself but But anyway,
she said at the time, she said, Vanessa,
the cage door is open. You can fly out.
And I was like, what are you talking about? She's like, you act like you're
caged in, but the door is open.
(35:11):
Walk out, lie out, get out.
But at the time, I like I couldn't, it required a new version of me in order to step out of the cage.
And the process was not easy. It did not feel liberating at the time.
And and yet, it was like a key moment in my own awakening journey among many,
(35:36):
many, many, which I feel like sometimes life is like, here, have another dark
night of the soul, Vanessa.
But luckily now at this point, I have enough clarity around my purpose,
work in the world, and who I'm here to serve, and the impact that I intend and
am making that those dark nights of the soul don't feel as intense as they used
(36:01):
to. So I am grateful for that.
So that's the first piece I want to share with you about the new you.
The second piece related to what I just said, actually, which is there's a specific
group of people that you are meant to serve.
And I can't say that this is true for everybody in the world.
What I can say is it's true for the people that are in my soul group.
(36:24):
And you'll know, if you hear this and you're like, oh gosh, that's right.
Something in you awakens or remembers or or this sticks with you in some way,
then it's especially true for you.
Like my crew tends to be people that are here, they tend to be messengers.
And they're here to like serve groups of people to support the transformation.
(36:47):
That's part of the paradigm shift. That's their thing. So generally,
they'll own a healing business or be a healer, have their own transformational
business, and they're meant to serve many.
So there are certain people you're meant to be sharing your gifts with.
And the new version of you needs to be really rooted in that.
(37:11):
This will be especially helpful for those of you that already have healing businesses
is or transformational business is in any kind of way.
Because especially if you're a healer, you're like, I want to heal everybody.
There's a stage that you go through where you think you're here to save everybody.
You're not. Come on.
(37:33):
I mean, yes, you can hold a vision that everyone is healed and peace reigns everywhere.
But your specific role is that there is a group of people that you are meant
to be serving and your messages need and your services and your products,
they need to be tailored to those people.
I learned this over and over again and I see it in the clients that I work with.
(37:55):
I actually do offer a mentorship. It's called Your Healing Business where we
focus on the money, the messaging and the movement that you're here to make.
So if you're interested in that, again, go to my site, vasmith.com.
I think it's slash mentorships.
You'll see it on there under work with me. and then it'll
show you the mentorship options so there is
(38:15):
a group of people you're meant to serve and you the new you will need to be
really standing in the power and the expression of that that's what will help
also this new you to continue to like be the authentic embodied expression of
that and the very last point that i want to share with you is that.
(38:36):
That all of this, every single thing that I'm talking about with you today,
the energies that the full moon is kind of bringing up and amplifying,
the new you, the version of the new you that is looking to emerge,
the group that you're here to serve, the clarity that you may or may not have,
(38:59):
the confidence that you may or may not have, the trust that you may or may not
have, all of that already exists in your energy field, all of it.
And so the, I don't know, or I'm stuck, or I feel terrible.
Those are all real. They're all real experiences.
(39:21):
And it's important at this point in the game to remind yourself that the clarity
already exists in your field.
You need clarity on something it exists in your field okay if the clarity it
already exists in my field so what i'm in right now is the process of remembering
that i'm in the process of refining that i'm in the process of tapping into that direct the energy.
(39:47):
You know, oh, my purpose, that's already existing in my energetic field.
I need more specificity around that. Great. It exists.
So what I now need to do is lean into the trust and lean into my intuition around
what are my next moves to get more of the clarity around that.
(40:07):
Light, show me. my own energy field
show me make it obvious direct the
energy so uh i think you
know it's just important to remember that everything that we crave and desire
and and want to experience in life the the direction to know how to do it the
(40:29):
resources the the clues the synchronicities like all of that, all that info,
you are tapped into.
It's in your energetic field, it's in the collective field, and it's about you
making a conscious choice of whether you're going to connect to it or not.
I've been in this energy field for 24 years professionally.
(40:52):
I've been energy sensitive all my life and things just kind of come,
you know, fast and furious and very organically, naturally, automatically to me.
And yet, this is something I have to always remind myself of.
And to exist in the frequency of that, that this, whatever it is that I'm seeking,
the answers, the clues, the whatever, the connections, it already exists in my field.
(41:20):
It's like money doesn't come out of nowhere. You know what I mean?
Like, it exists. It exists.
So what do you need to do to line up your energy so it makes a direct link with that?
The love, the soulmate, the connections, the community, what do you need to
do with your energy to direct it to connect into that?
(41:42):
You are at choice. You are an agent of change.
You came here to experience change and to create change in the world.
You came here to build the new. My crew did.
So use these energies. Use these energies.

Hey, it's Vanessa and welcome to a new conversation on energy.
This one is going to be on this full moon and the new you.
So as I make this, it is May 23rd, 2024.
If you happen to find this video though at any other point in time,
simply means that there's info in here that is going to be relevant and resonant for you.
(00:23):
So please do keep tuning in. in also full
moon energies or any big astrological
configuration they tend to have i'm saying like playback pushback support smack
down like they have a lot of energies in the two to three days leading up to
(00:43):
it and then the two to three days after so even if you catch this a
little bit after you're golden, keep tuning in.
This message is for you right now.
Right, before we get into the details of this full moon and the new you,
as always, I want to welcome you here. Thank you so much for tuning in.
I do appreciate your presence and I really love when you like,

I do appreciate that greatly.
And also, I'm really glad that you're here tuning in to this conversation,
whether you are new or returning, welcome.
(01:28):
My name is Vanessa. I should do a little intro because, you know,
isn't it funny when we introduce ourselves.
Even if we've known people before, we're always in this evolution of becoming
the most authentic version of ourselves. selves.
And it's always in flux. It's always getting refined.
(01:49):
And I feel like even today, even in the course of this day, there's been an evolution for me.
And like three different versions of myself have been at the helm.
And that's a bit of what inspired the topic around the new you.
It's one that I talk about actually quite frequently because we are very much
(02:12):
in a spiritual identity upgrade process right now.
And it's bringing up, you know, not only a lot of new possibilities for us,
but it's also clearing out all of these old versions of ourselves and everything
that is associated with that old version of ourselves.
So it can be quite an uncomfortable time on multiple levels for people in this process.
(02:37):
Much empathy and support for that. I understand 100%. But I don't want to get
into too many details quite yet before I invite you into the energy guide program.
This is really designed to get you not just in touch with the higher purpose
of your energy sensitivity and give you the tools to help really navigate life energetically,
(03:00):
your personal individual life, as well as these larger collective energetics
that are going on right now.
It's also designed Designed to really get you connected with the larger reason
that you are here on the planet right now.
There really is a purpose for your existence.
You are meant to be an active, conscious participant in the game that is happening right now.
(03:21):
You're here to shift the paradigm, right? You're here to create the new.
That was what you were born for. That's why you chose to show up at this point in time.
At least the people in my crew, right? If this doesn't resonate with you,
then just drop it and move on.
It's okay. there's lots to choose from online
okay so in the energy guide program
(03:42):
we go over a ton of different you know really
wonderful content around energy navigating energy all of that you can see all
the details on my site basmith.com slash energy dash guide registration is open
for a short period of time more otherwise i offer it once a year and you can
get on the wait list for next year but but definitely go check it out.
(04:03):
I have a feeling that if you are watching any of my content online that the
program will absolutely speak to you.
So if it's for you, please do join.
All right, let's get into the topic at hand, which is this full moon and the new you.
I'm going to start with the full moon because it is today.
(04:25):
And what I'll be sharing with you in this This recording is the energies that
I am tuning into associated with this full moon.
And how to work with those energies, what to pay attention to around those energies.
And then we're going to connect that to the new you because they're very much connected right now.
(04:47):
So let's go over this full moon.
I hope I said full moon. I think I said new moon, but it's a full moon and it's
a full moon, a Sagittarius full moon.
Sagittarius is, I'm a Sag rising.
I don't know if any of you, if any of you are sun, moon, or rising in Sagittarius,
(05:09):
let me know in the comments below.
If you don't know, you can always look up your birth chart online and find that out.
I always refer to channynicholas.com because I just love her layout, no affiliation.
It's just, I like the way that she explains everything.
And Sagittarius for me is about buoyancy and travel and adventure.
(05:33):
And it's just this energy that is really engaged with life.
So we've got this full moon in Sagittarius. Full moons are about illumination.
They are bringing up whatever is underneath the surface for you.
And that's the nature of that. The Sagittarius sign is ruled by Jupiter.
(05:54):
Jupiter is about expansion and good luck and good fortune and yeah,
just this real sense of spaciousness, which is lovely to feel in connection
with the buoyancy and the travel and the adventure vibe of Sagittarius.
(06:16):
However, these are happening I mean, in the month or in, yeah,
astrological month, Gemini.
Gemini is all about, there's two sides to every story.
They're kind of like polar opposites in some way. It's the twins, right?
And so Gemini is like very mental, very loves to bring in new information,
(06:38):
has a message to share, must talk, must speak. Right.
Yeah, it's just very like engaged with life. It's very social.
So there's a lot of very like positive kind of buoyant energy around this configuration
with the full moon right now.
If you aren't feeling that, it is okay. However you feel is valid.
(07:02):
Just know the whole point, I mean, honestly,
of talking about energy in general is that
when there's these either collective
or cosmic like astrology energies at
play that we can use
that information to to create an opening for ourselves to create a new expression
(07:28):
or experience of life that's really the the opportunity that they give us and
because it helps break us out of the patterned way of thinking,
the soul's, we don't realize how programmed we are, how habitual we are.
I mean, maybe to a degree, but I think your mind would honestly be blown if
(07:50):
you realize just how rote you respond to life.
I say this from the perspective of doing inner work myself and,
you know, being surprised at where I didn't realize I was holding on to some
programming and patterns,
also being in having my own transformational business and working with clients,
(08:12):
guiding them through their transformational process.
You know, it's always illuminating like, oh my gosh, we were still operating
from this level of constriction.
There's nothing wrong with having a program or a pattern. it's
just more the the lack of
awareness around how we're operating and the lack of conscious choosing and
(08:37):
so when you become aware of like whoa this is the tendency that I am holding
in my space that makes complete sense why x y and z is working out the way it
is or why I feel limited in this way.
So it's really super liberating. It's very triggering, or it can be,
but it's also very, very liberating to realize whatever programs and patterns and tendencies are.
(09:03):
There's many ways to find out that information, but the way that I'm wired,
for those of you that don't know, I see energy.
I read energy. I see energy. I hear energy. Energy shows up to me in multiple
ways. it is more real to me than physical reality.
And it makes for a very colorful experience of life.
But basically, it's the sort of like the empath way of knowing when somebody else is BSing you.
(09:31):
Except at my level, I can see exactly specifically how they are BSing me and
what's underneath the surface of why they're BSing me and how I need to respond
to the dynamic of them BSing me.
So it's, I mean, that's one more extreme example, but essentially,
yeah, so I can see the programming, the structuring, the constriction,
(09:53):
the fragmentation, the discord that we hold in our energy field,
in our body, around our mind.
And yeah, I kind of went off on a bit of a tangent there, but this is the time
where we are meant to become aware of that.
Our matrix is literally deconstructing right now, our own personal matrix, right?
(10:17):
And then we live in this larger collective matrix as well that has a particular
system and structure to it.
But as we deconstruct personally, and we become aware of these programs and
patterns, then we consciously choose to shift them.
And then we regulate our nervous system. And then we choose to connect with new people in new ways.
(10:38):
And people that have already been in our lives in new ways.
As we do that, we begin to consciously participate in the larger collective
shift that's happening.
So it really is, yeah, the nature of this time because of how energy is shifting.
(10:59):
How consciousness is expanding.
That's the impact that it has on us.
It's kind of like, yeah, unless you sort of wake up to that reality, you feel yourself.
Becoming less and less alive, right?
First, it starts off as I'm stuck, but then it moves into I feel more and more dead.
(11:23):
It's sort of a zombified awake state, right?
It's actually like if you look at people energetically, you can see where people
have just zombified. They are checked out.
And that's not the game I'm playing. I'm here, I am in the body,
and I am paying attention to what's happening in my inner world and the outer
world from an energetic perspective.
(11:44):
So back to this full moon, I went off on a tangent there.
But back to this full moon, the full moon is giving us this this really open
door opportunity to say, wow, there's this there's this buoyant,
adventurous travel kind of energy, like there's this new,
spaciousness that I feel there's this expansion that's wanting to come through me.
(12:09):
There's this desire to connect with new information
gemini that expands my consciousness there's
a desire for me to show up and share with new perspectives and new ways and
there's also a desire to show up and share and reinforce what it is that i really
stand for what my truth really is so these are the kind of energies that are
(12:31):
moving through right now around this full moon time if If you feel that rise in you,
you may notice some body sensations like, I'm sweating.
Like this week, I've been sweating so much. I'm not a huge sweater.
But this week, there's just been so much energy moving through my system.
Let it. There's nothing wrong with you. You are moving energy.
(12:55):
Trust the process. So some of the other themes that I wanted to share with you
that I'm getting energetically around this full moon is I've mentioned the spaciousness
probably about 20 times because that's how it feels.
And it's associated with Jupiter. Also, there's some element energetically around.
(13:21):
An awareness landing in a new way.
There's something that you get more cellularly, energetically.
It's just something that you've been either already knew or have been chewing
on for a while it's like it's all of a sudden it makes sense and it's it's a little less,
(13:43):
like an aha moment because you know those aha
moments are a little bit like peak moments where you're like what mind blown
i had never thought of it like that before that's kind of a gemini thing in
general but there's something about the energy where it's like a circling back
to just something that you already knew was true,
(14:04):
but it feels different.
It feels different.
Wow. Oh, oh, that's what that means.
That's what that feels like. Oh, okay.
So that's part of this full moon energy.
(14:28):
And then there was, this one's a little bit packed of an energy theme,
but it came through really strongly is that there's this partnership, right?
Because Gemini has this twin energy that are like very polar opposite.
I don't know if you have any Geminis in your life, but they can be.
I've had a few here and there over the years.
(14:49):
Sometimes they get referred to, and don't throw a shoe at me,
but like Jekyll and Hyde a bit, like you're
like i love this person then next you're like oh who are
you like you're totally not who you portray yourself to be so it's like this
very i dated a guy actually once that was a gemini and i before i knew about
astrology and then once i learned about astrology i was like oh my gosh this
(15:11):
makes so much sense to me now why it felt like he was literally two different people,
yeah so there's this this underlying energy
with the full mood around releasing and
reclaiming do you like feel how those are so different like releasing is just
this you know it's like you can you can take the piece of paper and just be
(15:35):
like yeah it's done it's done we're done bye-bye release it but at the same
time there's a reclaiming it's like,
I guess I'll take this now. Thank you very much.
So there's a release and a reclaim, which is, these are energies that we talk a lot about.
In the healing journey or in the spiritual awakening process,
(15:58):
release, reclaim, release, reclaim.
But let me tell you what those are really about from an energetic perspective.
Releasing is actually about boundaries, which sounds funny, right?
Because you're letting something go and isn't boundaries around something you're holding on to? Yes.
Boundaries really set the standard. They say, this is no longer acceptable in
(16:22):
my reality. I no longer allow for this.
I no longer subscribe to this. Bye-bye.
We are done. That's a boundary. And boundaries can look like many different things.
Obviously, there's many iterations of how that could get expressed.
Rest but essentially when you draw a boundary around what your standards and
(16:45):
your values are and how which is
you know ideally should be based on your self-worth and your self-regard,
what that does is it releases that which is not a match so oh you you're not
able you or this This pattern that I'm doing doesn't fit this standard that I now hold for myself.
(17:10):
Okay, well, then it's time for some partying because, you know,
we're in a leveling, not a leveling up, but we're in expansion game,
right? We're in an evolution game.
And if you're playing a certain way, like, it's okay that sometimes relationships shift.
And sometimes, you know, you're meant to just move on. People are meant to grow
(17:34):
together, and if they can't, then...
You know, if you're dedicated to growth and the other person is not,
you're always going to be compromising yourself to match down to that which
they refuse to do. Is that acceptable for you?
Or even for yourself, your relationship with yourself. Like I,
for me personally, I've been really wanting to develop a new exercise habit
(18:01):
routine, do some strength training.
And it's been really challenging for me to like create a habit around this.
And so in order for me to do that, I need to draw a boundary around what I'm
no longer willing to do and what I am willing to do.
And so I need to really release that part of me that is inconsistent.
(18:23):
Release that part of me that is set on continually saying, I have no energy to exercise.
I have to choose to release that, or I get to choose to release that.
This is sometimes easier said than done, but you know, it's,
it's, it's about, you know, do you respect the boundaries that you set for yourself
(18:44):
and do other people, do, do other people respect those boundaries as well?
And if not, maybe it's time to release them.
And then the reclaiming that is actually about the energy of of directness, directing the energy.
It's like, I am reaching to reclaim something into my life, an energy,
(19:04):
a person, you know, whatever it is that I am reclaiming this now.
But as you do that, it's you directing the energy. It's you saying,
I want this, thank you. It's not just an intention.
Intentions are lovely, and I highly support you having intentions in general.
But a directedness, this is what life is asking us to do like can you direct
(19:27):
the energy what are you choosing to hold and express your frequency at I say
that let's take a sip of water here.
I say that partially with a smile because this week has been really challenging for me.
You can't really tell in this moment, but my energy has felt so low this week.
(19:47):
I've had to take a lot of naps. I finally recovered from what felt like a perpetually ongoing cold.
And then I just felt sapped, I mean, completely.
And even earlier today, I recorded another share, which was about keeping the faith.
If you look at the energy of that video versus the energy of this video,
(20:11):
it's very different. And they're literally a couple of hours apart.
So I really do understand that, you know, so much can change in the day.
So much can change depending on where our intention and our directedness goes.
Like I was, I was not planning on making this video. I was like,
yeah, it's just a full moon. We'll move on.
I don't need to talk about this. but then there was something in me that was
(20:34):
like direct the energy Vanessa what do you really want here what do you really
want to say to people who do you really want to be speaking to if you can do
absolutely anything right now and the result would be you feeling really strong and good,
what would that be and the earlier version of myself would have said I don't
(20:55):
know I just want to sit outside and stare at a tree but there was something
in me in this moment that was like I want to make a video.
I'm going to make a video. So here I am making this for you.
I'm glad I did because that choice completely, it was like a Cinderella moment, right?
(21:17):
You're just like feeling poor and sorry for yourself.
And I mean, I was in a pretty solid space. I was just a lot more mellow,
but just like very chill.
And, but it felt like a Cinderella moment because as soon as I made the decision
of like, this is how I want to direct the energy right now.
I felt like, you know, that moment in the movie where it's, there's like a swirl
(21:42):
of energy around her and she goes from these rags to these riches into this
beautiful dress and spoken,
by the way, from a, I'm not, I'm not out here to like promote Disney or anything like that.
I could say a few choice words about that. But I will say I did used to have
a job as a professional princess, where I would dress up in full gown and the wig and the makeup.
(22:07):
And I would go to kids' birthday parties and sing and dance and do face painting
and do magic shows and things of that nature.
I worked for a company called Magic Princess.
It was honestly one of the best jobs I've ever had.
I have so many great stories to tell you about that. I'll save that for another other day though.
So yeah, that's how it felt to make that directed decision around this is how
(22:32):
I want to invest my energy right now.
So be direct with how you want to invest your energy.
And like I said, that doesn't mean that you have to be like all showy like I'm being at the moment.
I mean, this is just part of my natural personality.
This is an expression of me doing something that I I really love.
(22:54):
It's going to look different for everybody.
I just happen to love making videos.
I think I shared, I wasn't on any of my own recordings that I was a guest on
somebody else's podcast.
And I was just telling the story of when I was in high school,
I really wanted to, I really wanted to have video camera.
(23:14):
And I remember telling my dad, I was like, why?
It's like why do you want that and this is obviously way before smartphones
and all this like buy a video camera was 200 something and it was only the kind
that you held on your shoulder.
And yeah he didn't really get it I think I was 17 at the time and I didn't I told him I said I
(23:36):
don't know he's like well but what are you gonna do with it I'm like I have
no idea maybe create my own TV show or something?
And he's like, how is that possible?
So this was obviously, I don't know, when was it?
1890 or something like that so obviously it was
a long time ago but that's just to
(23:58):
say that these seeds always exist when
within us that are like directing us
towards what we love like i i i feel like i've said this a million times but
i have had these little signs on my wall saying when all else fails make a video
because for me it's like my healing balm my medicine i just i really love to
(24:21):
do it. It's really fun for me.
Okay, so back to the full moon energy.
The very last piece that was like coming in around the underlying energetics
for this full moon is to let it be so.
Whatever that is, whatever that means, whatever that means.
(24:41):
So if it's a desire that you wish to have, let it be so. Allow it in.
If it's something really challenging happening in your life that you have a
lot of resistance to, a lot of reaction to, just let it be so.
Let it be so. It's kind of like, it's grace, right? Just take your hands off,
(25:03):
man. You're not the only one in control here.
You have more support than you realize. You really, really do.
And grace, grace on all of us.
We're not doing this life thing alone. We aren't. I know it appears that way
from a physical perspective, but it's very far from the truth energetically and spiritually.
(25:27):
So lean into that. Let whatever reality you're currently working with,
let it be so. And, you know, it's kind of like,
I don't know. There's some people that say, give it up to God. That works for you.
Beautiful. Do it. If that another version is like, trust the universe.
Great. Go there. Just let it be so. Like, drop your resistance, drop your attachment.
(25:53):
Let life, let life just move through you.
You know like you get
to express the uniqueness of you in this human
suit that you're currently in but like
allow it to move you know we it's just we don't realize how much we suppress
ourselves and mask and like exist in all these distorted patterns and i don't
(26:18):
know about you but i'm feeling done with that so we're gonna move on to this
because it's a perfect segue into
the new you the new you so this full moon and the new you the new you the pieces
that came through around this because again like i said we are in a spiritual
identity upgrade right now there's many reasons for this it has to do with the
(26:41):
energy systems that are shifting within our,
you know being it also has to do with the consciousness expansion that's going
on right now Now, there's many different reasons.
There's a timeline, how do you call, convergence that's going on right now as well.
So there's new, the veils are thinning.
(27:03):
There's many different factors that are at play when it comes to this new you.
And you can see in just a brief recap of the energies of this full moon,
spaciousness, insights that are
landing in a new deeper kind of way releasing
and reclaiming slash boundaries and directed and directedness and then letting
(27:29):
it be so right these are all energetic qualities that might literally construct
a new version of you like imagine that who you are right now
or who you've been being,
all of a sudden felt this sense of spaciousness.
(27:51):
There was spaciousness there. You had room to breathe. You had space between your thoughts.
There's space between your words. There's space between your activities.
That'd be a new version of you you know imagine
that the you
that you've been being that somehow these
(28:15):
insights that you've had or these understandings of life begin to land in you
in a new way like your your perspective shifts and you really really get something
on a deep deep level that's a new you.
The release and reclaim, the boundaries and directiveness requires a new version
(28:38):
of you to be able to set those standards,
to be able to enact that in your life, to release something that you've been
holding on to, to reclaim something that you know is truly important to you.
You need a new you to do that. It's a new you that's going to do that.
And then letting it be so, how much time have you spent in reaction or resistance
(29:01):
or being triggered or staying stuck or, you know, perhaps you know exactly what
it is that you're here to do on the planet,
but you are like slowing down the process or sabotaging the process.
If you let it be so wherever you're at in that journey, that's a new you.
(29:21):
So all of the energies around this full moon right now really lend themselves
to the creation, the expression, the emergence of the new you.
So I want to talk about that for a moment and then we'll move on and then we'll close out.
So the new you, the version of you that created what you are currently experiencing
(29:47):
is not the version of you that can take you to what you want to experience next.
Next. It's just not.
That's why sometimes you get to where you currently are and you're like,
okay, now this space is feeling a little too small for me.
This impulse will rise in you that says, I need more spaciousness.
(30:13):
I need a different reality.
I want consistent results in this way. I want this kind of relationship,
like that desire to grow and to expand and to experience something new.
That is a reflection of your soul, right?
And so we want to, and when we don't listen to that, we generally end up making
(30:35):
ourselves sick and or miserable, right?
So in order to kind of move into that next stage of whatever that looks like
for you, it requires a new version of Now,
that new version of you doesn't just have the seed of what could be possible next.
It definitely has a seed. The seed comes with the package, but that new version
(31:01):
of you also has the receptivity to receive it.
Meaning, like, the old version of you would be like, wait, what's happening?
Oh, no, like, that doesn't feel quite right. Like, they're not prepped to receive.
The new version of you is like, ah, yes, that sounds good. Thank you.
(31:22):
I received that. I accept that.
The new version of you also has the know-how.
Because it's not only the integration of all of your past versions of you,
but it is you know it's kind of like the alchemy
of the power of a group right
so it's like the energy of putting three
(31:44):
people together is far different far
more complex far more profound far
more beautiful it's just it has an energy all of its own the group energy than
it does if it was one single person staying with the new version of you the
new version of you is like this just all the versions of yourself, integrated,
(32:08):
combined, and then a whole new energy arises out of that.
So you're just, you're operating at a completely different template of how to exist in the world.
Comes with new practices, new perceptions, new language, all of that.
And the new you also has the i want to say the passion and the dedication and the fire to,
(32:36):
continue down the path right the old you doesn't the old you is like this is
new i don't know this territory you know you probably go back into your primal
brain where you're like yeah you know i'm more in a fight or flight mode might
you know your nervous system might get dysregulated if the old
version of you tried to walk on the new path.
(32:57):
I mean, good luck. Let me know if that works. It's never worked for me.
So life is really interesting because it really does call you to continue to upgrade and expand.
And if you're feeling stuck, it is very likely that there is a new version of
you in your being, in your energy field that is like, let me out of this cage.
(33:21):
And I'll tell you briefly, I used to work with this. I had a mentor for eight
years. Her name was Tara.
And she taught me so much. She's like in my memory, she's still teaching me.
And when I first met her, there's a whole story associated with that.
I'll save that for another day.
(33:42):
But I remember literally the first day I met with her, she was medical intuitive,
homeopath, psychic, all of these pieces together and combined in this fiery redhead.
And she just kept looking at me because I was miserable.
I was miserable and depressed and stuck and really stuck, really, really stuck.
(34:05):
And also simultaneously knew that I was here for a reason, didn't know what
that reason was, felt like I was supposed to contribute to some sort of collective shift.
Mind you, this was in the year 2000, so it's quite a while ago.
But there was this passion and this desire in me and this lack of clarity,
lack of confidence and really feeling terribly, terribly disempowered and stuck.
(34:31):
Which is, as an aside, funny because sometimes
I want to make all these I used to market
my business around like speaking to the stuck people and
I realized like that's actually not totally my wheelhouse I was just trying
to save a version of myself from way back when so it really does serve you to
(34:51):
connect with the people you're meant to be connecting with rather than trying
to save an old version of yourself but But anyway,
she said at the time, she said, Vanessa,
the cage door is open. You can fly out.
And I was like, what are you talking about? She's like, you act like you're
caged in, but the door is open.
(35:11):
Walk out, lie out, get out.
But at the time, I like I couldn't, it required a new version of me in order to step out of the cage.
And the process was not easy. It did not feel liberating at the time.
And and yet, it was like a key moment in my own awakening journey among many,
(35:36):
many, many, which I feel like sometimes life is like, here, have another dark
night of the soul, Vanessa.
But luckily now at this point, I have enough clarity around my purpose,
work in the world, and who I'm here to serve, and the impact that I intend and
am making that those dark nights of the soul don't feel as intense as they used
(36:01):
to. So I am grateful for that.
So that's the first piece I want to share with you about the new you.
The second piece related to what I just said, actually, which is there's a specific
group of people that you are meant to serve.
And I can't say that this is true for everybody in the world.
What I can say is it's true for the people that are in my soul group.
(36:24):
And you'll know, if you hear this and you're like, oh gosh, that's right.
Something in you awakens or remembers or or this sticks with you in some way,
then it's especially true for you.
Like my crew tends to be people that are here, they tend to be messengers.
And they're here to like serve groups of people to support the transformation.
(36:47):
That's part of the paradigm shift. That's their thing. So generally,
they'll own a healing business or be a healer, have their own transformational
business, and they're meant to serve many.
So there are certain people you're meant to be sharing your gifts with.
And the new version of you needs to be really rooted in that.
(37:11):
This will be especially helpful for those of you that already have healing businesses
is or transformational business is in any kind of way.
Because especially if you're a healer, you're like, I want to heal everybody.
There's a stage that you go through where you think you're here to save everybody.
You're not. Come on.
(37:33):
I mean, yes, you can hold a vision that everyone is healed and peace reigns everywhere.
But your specific role is that there is a group of people that you are meant
to be serving and your messages need and your services and your products,
they need to be tailored to those people.
I learned this over and over again and I see it in the clients that I work with.
(37:55):
I actually do offer a mentorship. It's called Your Healing Business where we
focus on the money, the messaging and the movement that you're here to make.
So if you're interested in that, again, go to my site, vasmith.com.
I think it's slash mentorships.
You'll see it on there under work with me. and then it'll
show you the mentorship options so there is
(38:15):
a group of people you're meant to serve and you the new you will need to be
really standing in the power and the expression of that that's what will help
also this new you to continue to like be the authentic embodied expression of
that and the very last point that i want to share with you is that.
(38:36):
That all of this, every single thing that I'm talking about with you today,
the energies that the full moon is kind of bringing up and amplifying,
the new you, the version of the new you that is looking to emerge,
the group that you're here to serve, the clarity that you may or may not have,
(38:59):
the confidence that you may or may not have, the trust that you may or may not
have, all of that already exists in your energy field, all of it.
And so the, I don't know, or I'm stuck, or I feel terrible.
Those are all real. They're all real experiences.
(39:21):
And it's important at this point in the game to remind yourself that the clarity
already exists in your field.
You need clarity on something it exists in your field okay if the clarity it
already exists in my field so what i'm in right now is the process of remembering
that i'm in the process of refining that i'm in the process of tapping into that direct the energy.
(39:47):
You know, oh, my purpose, that's already existing in my energetic field.
I need more specificity around that. Great. It exists.
So what I now need to do is lean into the trust and lean into my intuition around
what are my next moves to get more of the clarity around that.
(40:07):
Light, show me. my own energy field
show me make it obvious direct the
energy so uh i think you
know it's just important to remember that everything that we crave and desire
and and want to experience in life the the direction to know how to do it the
(40:29):
resources the the clues the synchronicities like all of that, all that info,
you are tapped into.
It's in your energetic field, it's in the collective field, and it's about you
making a conscious choice of whether you're going to connect to it or not.
I've been in this energy field for 24 years professionally.
(40:52):
I've been energy sensitive all my life and things just kind of come,
you know, fast and furious and very organically, naturally, automatically to me.
And yet, this is something I have to always remind myself of.
And to exist in the frequency of that, that this, whatever it is that I'm seeking,
the answers, the clues, the whatever, the connections, it already exists in my field.
(41:20):
It's like money doesn't come out of nowhere. You know what I mean?
Like, it exists. It exists.
So what do you need to do to line up your energy so it makes a direct link with that?
The love, the soulmate, the connections, the community, what do you need to
do with your energy to direct it to connect into that?
(41:42):
You are at choice. You are an agent of change.
You came here to experience change and to create change in the world.
You came here to build the new. My crew did.
So use these energies. Use these energies.
