here.

9
00:00:29,485 --> 00:00:33,849
I'm the Fresh King Benjamin, host of
Vibing the Apocalypse, a podcast that uses

10
00:00:33,849 --> 00:00:37,172
comedy to bring injustices that I went
through to light.

11
00:00:37,272 --> 00:00:40,395
I'm an escapee from a Mormon polygamist
compound in Wyoming.

12
00:00:40,395 --> 00:00:43,437
I was taught that the world was a wicked,
wicked place.

13
00:00:43,478 --> 00:00:47,161
But now that I've escaped, I want you to
show me all the wicked things and help me

14
00:00:47,161 --> 00:00:49,182
catch up on what I missed out on.

15
00:00:49,283 --> 00:00:52,765
Check out Vibing the Apocalypse right here
on Ride the Wave Media.

16
00:00:53,262 --> 00:00:56,953
The following presentation is a production
of Ride the Wave Media.

17
00:01:00,910 --> 00:01:03,492
Hey and welcome, I'm Courtney Pearl.

18
00:01:03,492 --> 00:01:05,773
This is Practically Magic.

19
00:01:05,894 --> 00:01:12,780
I am a pagan witch, card reader, healer,
spiritualist, Celtic priestess, teacher,

20
00:01:12,780 --> 00:01:15,262
artist, and mystic seeker.

21
00:01:15,262 --> 00:01:20,866
This is my very first episode of
Practically Magic and I am so excited

22
00:01:20,866 --> 00:01:21,627
about it.

23
00:01:21,627 --> 00:01:26,691
I even recorded this whole episode and had
to re-record it because I was too nervous.

24
00:01:26,691 --> 00:01:29,753
But honestly, I'm gonna be listening to
this episode.

25
00:01:29,842 --> 00:01:34,866
years later and I'm going to be like, oh,
that was just my nervous, sweaty episode.

26
00:01:34,866 --> 00:01:38,609
And now I get to move on and do my
episodes much better.

27
00:01:38,609 --> 00:01:42,832
So if you are listening to this into the
future, stick with it.

28
00:01:42,832 --> 00:01:46,035
It gets better or at least I'm planning on
it getting better.

29
00:01:47,356 --> 00:01:47,957
All right.

30
00:01:47,957 --> 00:01:50,479
So here we are on Practically Magic.

31
00:01:50,479 --> 00:01:56,484
This is going to be a podcast that helps
us discover the mysteries of the universe

32
00:01:56,484 --> 00:01:59,005
and use them to create the life we seek.

33
00:01:59,014 --> 00:02:01,275
So I'm gonna start the episode by pulling
a card.

34
00:02:01,275 --> 00:02:07,178
I do divination and card reading, and I
have this new deck called Witch's Wisdom

35
00:02:07,198 --> 00:02:08,679
by Phyllis Carratt.

36
00:02:08,879 --> 00:02:12,622
I took a master class where she was
teaching it, and she mentioned this deck,

37
00:02:12,622 --> 00:02:14,843
and I had to buy it, so it's new.

38
00:02:15,323 --> 00:02:18,305
I love picking my decks based on the
artwork.

39
00:02:18,485 --> 00:02:23,488
So this one has some beautiful artwork and
some different symbols than traditional

40
00:02:23,488 --> 00:02:26,309
tarot, and it just kinda helps you.

41
00:02:26,658 --> 00:02:32,281
get in touch with the feeling of the card
when you really resonate with the artwork

42
00:02:32,281 --> 00:02:32,901
behind it.

43
00:02:32,901 --> 00:02:36,743
So if you're looking to pick out a deck,
you wanna find something that just feels

44
00:02:36,743 --> 00:02:39,565
like you.

45
00:02:39,565 --> 00:02:41,786
So I'm gonna pull a card for us.

46
00:02:41,986 --> 00:02:45,388
And when I pull a card for the episode, I
want you to remember that even if you're

47
00:02:45,388 --> 00:02:51,551
listening to this episode a year from now
or five years from now, I'm going to trust

48
00:02:51,551 --> 00:02:55,853
the universe that this card is the message
that you deserve to hear today.

49
00:02:56,458 --> 00:03:01,799
So I want you to listen to what the card
is gonna tell us and then just see if that

50
00:03:01,799 --> 00:03:04,080
applies to you in your life right now.

51
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:08,081
It's kind of magical the way time travels
like that.

52
00:03:08,821 --> 00:03:15,743
And I have pulled the six of air in this
deck and the six of air, I'll describe it

53
00:03:15,743 --> 00:03:20,484
to you a little bit, it's a beautiful
picture of six swans, two grown-up swans

54
00:03:20,484 --> 00:03:24,765
and four little baby swans and they're
swimming in the water.

55
00:03:24,962 --> 00:03:29,343
and there's a white flower kind of in the
foreground of the picture.

56
00:03:29,643 --> 00:03:36,106
And in the background, there is a fox that
is waiting on the riverbank.

57
00:03:36,326 --> 00:03:40,708
And I don't usually use the guidebooks
because I like to read it intuitively.

58
00:03:40,768 --> 00:03:46,991
But when I look at what the guidebook
tells me about this one, the word that

59
00:03:46,991 --> 00:03:48,791
comes up is balance.

60
00:03:48,931 --> 00:03:53,373
And so I want you to think about your life
right now and the balance between predator

61
00:03:53,373 --> 00:03:54,413
and prey.

62
00:03:55,042 --> 00:03:59,803
The water symbolizes emotional place that
you're in right now.

63
00:04:00,143 --> 00:04:06,185
And because this number six comes up, it
tells me that you are in a place of going

64
00:04:06,185 --> 00:04:07,565
through a journey.

65
00:04:07,565 --> 00:04:13,927
Maybe you've just come out of some really
hard trials and you're still kind of

66
00:04:13,927 --> 00:04:17,148
moving towards where you wanna be with
everything.

67
00:04:17,148 --> 00:04:22,309
The element of air typically coincides
with intellect and communication.

68
00:04:22,322 --> 00:04:26,563
But there are certain symbols in the card,
in the picture, that tell me that this is

69
00:04:26,563 --> 00:04:30,945
an emotional journey and that your
intellect is trying to work through that

70
00:04:30,945 --> 00:04:34,607
journey, trying to figure yourself out.

71
00:04:34,607 --> 00:04:41,069
But this balance between the fox and the
swans is telling us that what you really

72
00:04:41,069 --> 00:04:44,931
need to do is you need to be patient with
yourself, that your journey is not over

73
00:04:44,931 --> 00:04:49,113
yet, and that if you try to come out of
that water too early, like these little

74
00:04:49,113 --> 00:04:50,913
baby swans might do,

75
00:04:51,210 --> 00:04:54,370
they're gonna end up getting caught by the
fox.

76
00:04:54,410 --> 00:04:58,291
So you have to be patient with yourself
and let yourself continue on this journey

77
00:04:58,291 --> 00:05:02,292
and grow in order to be ready for the next
steps.

78
00:05:02,332 --> 00:05:08,634
There's also a lot of like mist and
otherworldliness about this picture.

79
00:05:08,634 --> 00:05:13,195
A lot of times mist shows up when there's
something kind of beyond the veil.

80
00:05:13,195 --> 00:05:17,136
In folklore, it represents the other
world.

81
00:05:17,357 --> 00:05:20,757
So maybe there is something just a little
bit magical helping you along in your

82
00:05:20,757 --> 00:05:21,210
journey.

83
00:05:21,210 --> 00:05:26,092
something a little bit more than just the
physical plane of existence that we see

84
00:05:26,092 --> 00:05:26,993
and know.

85
00:05:27,653 --> 00:05:30,095
Well, that is our card for our show today.

86
00:05:30,095 --> 00:05:36,858
So I am excited to see how that plays into
our episode and what is coming up next for

87
00:05:36,858 --> 00:05:37,699
us.

88
00:05:37,699 --> 00:05:38,219
All right.

89
00:05:38,219 --> 00:05:43,722
On this episode, our first episode, I want
to just kind of help define what is real

90
00:05:43,722 --> 00:05:44,423
magic.

91
00:05:44,423 --> 00:05:49,665
Because if you're looking into magic and
you're like, okay, Harry Potter.

92
00:05:50,022 --> 00:05:56,226
Game of Thrones, there's kind of a reason
why we love fictional fantasy kind of

93
00:05:56,226 --> 00:06:00,709
things, because I think all of us have an
inner child that loves magic and just

94
00:06:00,709 --> 00:06:03,110
really wants magic to be real.

95
00:06:03,791 --> 00:06:08,954
And the older I get and the more I learn
and the more I seek out what is really out

96
00:06:08,954 --> 00:06:14,037
there, the more I learn about energy, the
more I understand it.

97
00:06:14,438 --> 00:06:19,100
I'm realizing that magic is just as real
as we thought it was when we were kids and

98
00:06:19,100 --> 00:06:20,381
we would pretend.

99
00:06:20,381 --> 00:06:24,163
Now, we may not be able to see it in kind
of the ways where you wave a magic wand,

100
00:06:24,163 --> 00:06:31,066
little sparkles come out and magic
happens, but it is real in a very, very

101
00:06:31,247 --> 00:06:32,667
measurable way.

102
00:06:32,828 --> 00:06:35,769
So that is what I'd like to talk about a
little bit today.

103
00:06:35,909 --> 00:06:38,111
And I'm going to start off with a little
story.

104
00:06:38,111 --> 00:06:42,193
So I want to talk a little bit about what
I've experienced in my life and how magic

105
00:06:42,193 --> 00:06:43,613
has happened to me.

106
00:06:43,934 --> 00:06:48,777
A lot of times it happens when I manifest
things I really want, when I'm like, I

107
00:06:48,777 --> 00:06:54,021
don't understand how, but I just want this
and it's going to happen and I'm going to

108
00:06:54,021 --> 00:06:55,763
trust that it's going to happen.

109
00:06:55,763 --> 00:06:57,224
And this happened to me a few years ago.

110
00:06:57,224 --> 00:07:01,347
I was getting my Reiki training and I have
a local Reiki master.

111
00:07:01,347 --> 00:07:04,109
She does Reiki healing also.

112
00:07:04,249 --> 00:07:09,113
And she was kind of telling me about her
experience of getting her Reiki training

113
00:07:09,113 --> 00:07:10,253
and she had

114
00:07:10,398 --> 00:07:13,680
She had decided because she had been going
through a hard time, she got a divorce and

115
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:19,745
she decided she wanted to go and get her
final attunement in Karuna Reiki in

116
00:07:19,745 --> 00:07:20,205
England.

117
00:07:20,205 --> 00:07:24,468
They were doing a workshop or a class
there and it was really exciting because

118
00:07:24,468 --> 00:07:29,852
they were actually going to go and do
their final attunement in Stonehenge.

119
00:07:30,312 --> 00:07:34,716
And she even had a picture on her website
of her in the middle of Stonehenge in the

120
00:07:34,716 --> 00:07:35,756
stones.

121
00:07:36,177 --> 00:07:37,218
And something of

122
00:07:37,218 --> 00:07:39,560
about that was so appealing to me.

123
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:43,903
I just thought to myself, yes, I am doing
that.

124
00:07:43,903 --> 00:07:49,028
I don't know how or when, but I'm gonna go
and take that same Reiki class and I'll go

125
00:07:49,028 --> 00:07:51,510
to England and I'll do it.

126
00:07:51,510 --> 00:07:55,714
And over the years, the years that went
on, I don't know if they do those Reiki

127
00:07:55,714 --> 00:08:01,599
trainings there in England anymore, but
all of a sudden, one day, my aunt, who is

128
00:08:01,599 --> 00:08:04,901
also a Reiki practitioner, she's a Reiki
healer,

129
00:08:04,962 --> 00:08:09,143
She was following a group called the
Sisterhood of Avalon, which is kind of a

130
00:08:09,143 --> 00:08:11,443
Celtic spiritual group.

131
00:08:11,443 --> 00:08:17,765
And she said, they are doing a pilgrimage
to the sacred sites of England and Wales.

132
00:08:18,305 --> 00:08:21,326
And I really wanna go, do you wanna go
with me?

133
00:08:21,366 --> 00:08:23,507
And I was like, yes, absolutely.

134
00:08:23,507 --> 00:08:26,107
I don't know how I don't have the money
for that.

135
00:08:26,187 --> 00:08:27,408
I didn't even have a passport.

136
00:08:27,408 --> 00:08:31,309
I had never been out of the country, but I
was like, yes, I'm going to England.

137
00:08:31,309 --> 00:08:32,929
That is absolutely.

138
00:08:33,089 --> 00:08:34,509
Also Avalon?

139
00:08:34,526 --> 00:08:37,568
I have always wanted to learn more about
Avalon.

140
00:08:37,568 --> 00:08:40,610
It has been my childhood dream to be an
Avalon priestess.

141
00:08:40,671 --> 00:08:44,294
So I wanted to learn more about this
Sisterhood of Avalon anyway.

142
00:08:44,294 --> 00:08:47,536
And I thought we can go with this group
and see what this is all about.

143
00:08:47,597 --> 00:08:52,761
And to this day, I can't even tell you how
I figured out how to pay for it.

144
00:08:52,761 --> 00:08:54,502
It just sort of happened.

145
00:08:54,543 --> 00:08:58,646
I paid for my spot in the pilgrimage and I
went.

146
00:08:58,926 --> 00:09:03,109
And this happened in August of 2023, just
last year.

147
00:09:03,178 --> 00:09:08,839
I got to go with my aunt and we went and I
didn't even totally realize this at the

148
00:09:08,839 --> 00:09:18,562
time, but there was a special sunrise
ceremony planned for us in Stonehenge.

149
00:09:18,782 --> 00:09:23,683
And I didn't even really have the space
for it, but I packed my drum that I use

150
00:09:23,683 --> 00:09:24,783
for healing.

151
00:09:24,883 --> 00:09:26,144
My drum is so special to me.

152
00:09:26,144 --> 00:09:28,704
She's my best friend and I had to take her
with me.

153
00:09:28,745 --> 00:09:31,965
So I put my drum in my suitcase and packed
my pajamas inside of it.

154
00:09:31,965 --> 00:09:32,490
And I...

155
00:09:32,490 --> 00:09:37,392
went with my drum just so that I could
bring my drum to that ceremony.

156
00:09:37,392 --> 00:09:43,014
We did this very special ritual and we all
had to wear black cloaks and hoods and we

157
00:09:43,014 --> 00:09:46,996
did this ceremony and it was connecting us
with our ancestors.

158
00:09:46,996 --> 00:09:53,339
It was really powerful and emotional and
then with my drum I was able to actually

159
00:09:53,379 --> 00:09:59,241
drum while walking inside the circle of
the stones.

160
00:09:59,562 --> 00:10:01,743
And this is not something they let
tourists do anymore.

161
00:10:01,743 --> 00:10:06,866
By the way, this is like, tourists have to
walk along a path, like outside of the

162
00:10:06,866 --> 00:10:09,027
stones and there's security guards
everywhere.

163
00:10:09,027 --> 00:10:12,509
And they told us, if you touch the stones,
we have to take you out.

164
00:10:13,089 --> 00:10:14,730
So we were really careful.

165
00:10:14,930 --> 00:10:18,813
But that experience was so powerful to me.

166
00:10:18,813 --> 00:10:24,736
I had some very deep spiritual experiences
while being there with the circle of

167
00:10:24,736 --> 00:10:26,437
stones, of Stonehenge.

168
00:10:26,677 --> 00:10:27,278
Such.

169
00:10:27,278 --> 00:10:30,959
power and energy so ancient and amazing.

170
00:10:31,180 --> 00:10:35,022
And I had experiences like that the whole
week that we were there in England.

171
00:10:35,142 --> 00:10:39,344
And I will talk about that more on future
episodes because there's so much.

172
00:10:39,344 --> 00:10:43,567
But it turned out that when I went into
the museum to learn a little bit more

173
00:10:43,567 --> 00:10:49,430
about it, they talked about the stones
that are the inner circle of the stones

174
00:10:49,430 --> 00:10:54,293
are made of blue stone and that they
believed that the ancient peoples who

175
00:10:54,293 --> 00:10:55,633
built Stonehenge

176
00:10:55,730 --> 00:10:57,811
used that stone for healing.

177
00:10:57,911 --> 00:11:02,735
And so I purchased a bracelet, I'm
actually wearing it right now, a blue

178
00:11:02,735 --> 00:11:08,880
stone that I always wear when I'm doing my
healing sessions with clients.

179
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:11,803
And it's an incredible energy.

180
00:11:11,803 --> 00:11:15,626
It's definitely something that I feel
every time I put it on.

181
00:11:15,626 --> 00:11:19,409
It sends me right back to being in the
center of the stones.

182
00:11:19,689 --> 00:11:25,373
And I had manifested that years earlier
when I said, I'm doing that.

183
00:11:25,470 --> 00:11:31,935
So I wanna talk about like how that ends
up happening and thought and emotion are

184
00:11:31,935 --> 00:11:33,497
powerful vibrations.

185
00:11:33,497 --> 00:11:38,662
I'm gonna tell you what I tell my students
when I teach art lessons and I talk to my

186
00:11:38,662 --> 00:11:45,108
students about magic, I say spells are
just stories and you can call them

187
00:11:45,108 --> 00:11:46,209
anything that you want.

188
00:11:46,209 --> 00:11:50,953
You can call them spells, you can call
them prayer, manifestation, placebo

189
00:11:50,953 --> 00:11:51,814
effect.

190
00:11:51,814 --> 00:11:54,755
mantras, affirmations, energy.

191
00:11:54,755 --> 00:11:59,478
It doesn't really matter what you call it
because your intention, the energy is

192
00:11:59,478 --> 00:12:01,239
going to flow with that intention.

193
00:12:01,239 --> 00:12:06,682
That's the communication that God and the
universe, that's the language that they

194
00:12:06,682 --> 00:12:07,282
use.

195
00:12:07,282 --> 00:12:10,624
So if you're putting your intention into
something, that is what will make it

196
00:12:10,624 --> 00:12:11,344
happen.

197
00:12:11,344 --> 00:12:18,368
Now, what I tell my students is, if spells
are stories, then you have to be extremely

198
00:12:18,368 --> 00:12:20,626
careful about what stories you're telling.

199
00:12:20,626 --> 00:12:22,347
especially about yourself.

200
00:12:22,347 --> 00:12:26,690
So in the healing work, when I'm working
with clients, I am actually working on

201
00:12:26,690 --> 00:12:27,991
those stories.

202
00:12:28,071 --> 00:12:31,374
We are finding out what stories are you
telling about yourself?

203
00:12:31,374 --> 00:12:35,617
Because spells can be spells or they can
be curses.

204
00:12:35,617 --> 00:12:38,779
And it really depends on you, depends on
the stories you're telling.

205
00:12:38,979 --> 00:12:42,442
And everything is energy, everything is
vibration.

206
00:12:42,842 --> 00:12:47,605
What we want to happen, we need three
things to create a spell.

207
00:12:47,730 --> 00:12:52,573
And I've got this from a fictional novel
about witches, so it might seem like, oh,

208
00:12:52,573 --> 00:12:57,237
that's fiction, but all fiction has its
reality too.

209
00:12:57,237 --> 00:13:04,183
So I want to move forward with this idea
that spells need three things, the words,

210
00:13:04,183 --> 00:13:06,424
the will, and the way.

211
00:13:06,605 --> 00:13:11,729
If you have those three things aligned,
you can make anything happen for yourself.

212
00:13:11,869 --> 00:13:16,492
The magic of the universe creates what we
ask of it.

213
00:13:18,070 --> 00:13:20,270
Let's use an example like wealth.

214
00:13:20,691 --> 00:13:25,273
If I wanted something like I wanted to be
more wealthy, you can start with the

215
00:13:25,273 --> 00:13:26,273
words.

216
00:13:26,453 --> 00:13:29,354
And I always start with this phrase.

217
00:13:29,495 --> 00:13:35,817
Wouldn't it be lovely if, because if you
say that or write that using those words,

218
00:13:35,818 --> 00:13:42,741
it puts you into a space of like, I'm not
expecting it, but what would it feel like

219
00:13:42,741 --> 00:13:45,121
and be like if this were true?

220
00:13:45,666 --> 00:13:50,587
So starting out with, wouldn't it be
lovely if I was making this much money and

221
00:13:50,587 --> 00:13:57,589
I had a lot of extra money and I had all
my needs met and I had more money than I

222
00:13:57,589 --> 00:14:01,730
knew what to do with and just living in
that space, understanding what that feels

223
00:14:01,730 --> 00:14:02,510
like.

224
00:14:02,630 --> 00:14:04,671
It can also sound like affirmations.

225
00:14:04,671 --> 00:14:08,312
So in this case, it might be like, I
deserve abundance.

226
00:14:08,532 --> 00:14:11,753
Most of us know what affirmations are
because they're very popular in the

227
00:14:11,753 --> 00:14:13,653
healing world and a lot of people will.

228
00:14:14,414 --> 00:14:19,256
print off affirmations to use, or put them
on their bathroom mirror to say every

229
00:14:19,256 --> 00:14:20,216
morning.

230
00:14:20,457 --> 00:14:24,599
And we'll talk more about that as we dive
deeper into these concepts.

231
00:14:24,599 --> 00:14:27,080
But you can even have some fun with it.

232
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:31,083
If you're really creating spells, you can
look up spells or you can make up your

233
00:14:31,083 --> 00:14:31,423
own.

234
00:14:31,423 --> 00:14:33,564
Bubble, bubble, toil and trouble.

235
00:14:33,564 --> 00:14:36,145
I want money, so send me double.

236
00:14:36,546 --> 00:14:38,026
That could be your words.

237
00:14:38,026 --> 00:14:39,987
So the first is words.

238
00:14:40,148 --> 00:14:42,389
The second is the will.

239
00:14:42,749 --> 00:14:43,810
And this is...

240
00:14:43,810 --> 00:14:47,971
connected to a lot of the work that I do
with clients in the emotional and energy

241
00:14:47,971 --> 00:14:49,232
healing world.

242
00:14:49,592 --> 00:14:55,494
Because it's not enough just to say it, it
really needs to be felt.

243
00:14:55,595 --> 00:14:57,575
It needs to be believed.

244
00:14:57,756 --> 00:15:03,878
You need to be able to raise your body's
vibrational frequency to resonate with it.

245
00:15:04,078 --> 00:15:09,661
Because when your body's frequency matches
the thing you're trying to attract, it

246
00:15:09,661 --> 00:15:11,761
becomes like a magnetic

247
00:15:11,950 --> 00:15:14,051
force that drives that thing to you.

248
00:15:14,051 --> 00:15:17,494
That's essentially the law of attraction.

249
00:15:18,715 --> 00:15:24,419
Sometimes our body is working on these
contradictory beliefs that we have had,

250
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:30,625
like if our body was a computer, we might
have downloaded lots of systems into our

251
00:15:30,625 --> 00:15:34,527
body, into our brain, that we don't even
realize.

252
00:15:34,728 --> 00:15:39,091
Because most of our brain's neurological
pathways have been created since we were

253
00:15:39,091 --> 00:15:40,272
eight years old.

254
00:15:40,372 --> 00:15:42,053
Our brain is all mapped.

255
00:15:42,130 --> 00:15:47,313
We created those maps based on what we
wanted to happen and we're trying to make

256
00:15:47,334 --> 00:15:49,175
our lives work.

257
00:15:49,175 --> 00:15:52,458
The problem with those systems is that
sometimes they don't actually work.

258
00:15:52,458 --> 00:15:54,359
They're just the only thing we know how to
do.

259
00:15:54,359 --> 00:15:59,504
So sometimes we can say, I really wanna be
wealthy, but if there's some subconscious

260
00:15:59,504 --> 00:16:05,168
beliefs working against us that might be
sabotaging that, and those subconscious

261
00:16:05,168 --> 00:16:10,473
beliefs are going to be something like, I
don't actually deserve this money, or I

262
00:16:10,473 --> 00:16:11,833
have to earn it.

263
00:16:12,330 --> 00:16:15,531
or how am I gonna earn this money?

264
00:16:16,052 --> 00:16:18,933
You don't wanna get tripped up is the how.

265
00:16:19,233 --> 00:16:24,476
So moving into the way, if you were
creating the way, so we have the words,

266
00:16:24,476 --> 00:16:30,699
the will and the way, this is not the
actual how you're going to get the money

267
00:16:30,860 --> 00:16:33,781
or how you're going to get what you want.

268
00:16:34,081 --> 00:16:40,265
This is creating a ritual of some kind
that gives you that same feeling that the

269
00:16:40,265 --> 00:16:41,725
words and the will.

270
00:16:42,034 --> 00:16:45,275
in living in it and believing that it's
coming.

271
00:16:45,435 --> 00:16:50,418
And this is where it can be really fun
with spells because your ritual can be so

272
00:16:50,418 --> 00:16:51,759
many cool things.

273
00:16:51,899 --> 00:16:54,500
You basically get to create your own
rituals.

274
00:16:54,681 --> 00:16:58,943
It's kind of like when you were a kid and
you used to just go out and make like mud

275
00:16:58,943 --> 00:17:04,506
potions with like sticks and flowers and
whatever you could find outside.

276
00:17:04,506 --> 00:17:07,948
And you'd put it in a bowl and you'd mix
it up and you'd say, look, I made a

277
00:17:07,948 --> 00:17:08,809
potion.

278
00:17:09,029 --> 00:17:10,238
It's kind of like that.

279
00:17:10,238 --> 00:17:12,118
you get to play with it, you get to have
fun with it.

280
00:17:12,118 --> 00:17:17,901
So it can be certain herbs and things that
resonate with money and abundance and

281
00:17:17,901 --> 00:17:18,501
wealth.

282
00:17:18,501 --> 00:17:23,443
It can be crystals, but none of these
kinds of things hold any magic unless you

283
00:17:23,443 --> 00:17:25,363
put the intention into it.

284
00:17:25,504 --> 00:17:29,325
So for people who are like, I gotta have
my crystals and I gotta have my herbs,

285
00:17:29,345 --> 00:17:34,748
they are great and they really do a lot of
helping us change our vibrational

286
00:17:34,748 --> 00:17:40,130
frequencies, but only if we believe it,
only if we set that intention.

287
00:17:40,590 --> 00:17:45,371
So one of my favorite fun things to do is
to use the color green if it has to do

288
00:17:45,371 --> 00:17:50,912
with money because we kind of associate
that with money and abundance.

289
00:17:51,272 --> 00:17:58,975
The color red also, so you lit a green
candle, or if you maybe draw a picture of

290
00:17:58,975 --> 00:18:03,796
money and you placed it under a glass of
water and you left it there for a certain

291
00:18:03,796 --> 00:18:07,797
amount of time and then you drink the
water, and as you're drinking the water,

292
00:18:07,797 --> 00:18:10,178
you're imagining like all the wealth.

293
00:18:10,178 --> 00:18:13,321
that you're drinking in and you're gonna
attract to yourself.

294
00:18:13,321 --> 00:18:15,022
And these are just some examples.

295
00:18:15,022 --> 00:18:18,986
Again, in future episodes, I'm gonna dive
further into these spells and how to

296
00:18:18,986 --> 00:18:21,928
actually create them, how to create a
ritual.

297
00:18:22,009 --> 00:18:25,973
And yeah, we're gonna do a lot of really
awesome things with that.

298
00:18:25,973 --> 00:18:33,079
So if I'm not making any sense to you now,
don't worry, there is so much yet to come.

299
00:18:33,079 --> 00:18:35,821
I'm gonna do a full episode in each one of
these.

300
00:18:36,066 --> 00:18:41,670
But that is the basic formula for using
real magic in your life, creating what it

301
00:18:41,670 --> 00:18:44,212
is that you want to have happen.

302
00:18:44,293 --> 00:18:50,017
All right, I'm excited to dive into those
subjects, but now it is time for our

303
00:18:50,017 --> 00:18:52,059
question from a listener.

304
00:18:52,059 --> 00:18:58,024
Okay, now of course this is my first
episode, so I don't have any listeners

305
00:18:58,024 --> 00:19:04,429
yet, but I have had people write into me
questions from time to time that are like,

306
00:19:04,898 --> 00:19:09,301
Can you help me with this problem that I'm
having or what would you recommend for

307
00:19:09,301 --> 00:19:10,282
someone?

308
00:19:10,502 --> 00:19:13,665
And so if you're listening to this and
you're already coming up with questions

309
00:19:13,665 --> 00:19:18,849
and you're like, I wonder if she can help
me figure this out or Maybe you've got

310
00:19:18,849 --> 00:19:23,013
something you're just particularly stuck
with I want you to feel free to write into

311
00:19:23,013 --> 00:19:27,416
me and I will give you information on how
to do that at the end of the episode, but

312
00:19:27,416 --> 00:19:34,021
I'm going to use a question that has come
up for me from a client and

313
00:19:34,142 --> 00:19:37,843
it will give us an idea of what these
questions could be.

314
00:19:37,843 --> 00:19:45,106
Okay, so I had someone ask me, when I walk
into a crystal shop, I always feel a

315
00:19:45,106 --> 00:19:49,868
little sick and repulsed when I see
citrine.

316
00:19:49,988 --> 00:19:51,868
What does this mean?

317
00:19:51,969 --> 00:19:59,652
Okay, now the body's physical reactions to
things like the crystals, that is a very

318
00:19:59,792 --> 00:20:02,373
intuitive energetic response.

319
00:20:02,453 --> 00:20:03,970
So I want to,

320
00:20:03,970 --> 00:20:06,571
dive into this a little bit when we talk
about citrine.

321
00:20:06,571 --> 00:20:09,993
If you don't know what citrine is, it's a
yellow crystal.

322
00:20:09,993 --> 00:20:10,934
It is really beautiful.

323
00:20:10,934 --> 00:20:18,518
It can be very, very like clear, sparkly,
yellow kind of sunshiny color.

324
00:20:19,059 --> 00:20:24,942
But when it's kind of dull on the outside,
it also sort of resembles a booger.

325
00:20:25,322 --> 00:20:27,844
It's not very attractive sometimes too.

326
00:20:28,144 --> 00:20:30,705
So when I...

327
00:20:31,254 --> 00:20:35,536
have someone ask me a certain crystal or
color that they're just not resonating

328
00:20:35,536 --> 00:20:36,377
with.

329
00:20:36,957 --> 00:20:43,062
I think about the chakra colors and the
associations that energy has with color.

330
00:20:43,062 --> 00:20:49,426
Since Citrine is yellow, I'm gonna ask
what sort of issues or blockages might a

331
00:20:49,426 --> 00:20:52,468
person have in the solar plexus chakra.

332
00:20:52,508 --> 00:20:56,811
And if you're listening and you're able
to, I want you to just find your belly

333
00:20:56,811 --> 00:20:58,532
button with your hand.

334
00:20:58,792 --> 00:21:00,666
You have your belly button and then you go

335
00:21:00,666 --> 00:21:04,407
up from your belly button just a little
bit right above the belly button.

336
00:21:04,788 --> 00:21:09,330
This is the area of the body where the
solar plexus chakra is.

337
00:21:09,751 --> 00:21:12,653
And it is the center of the body.

338
00:21:12,653 --> 00:21:14,954
It is the power center.

339
00:21:15,094 --> 00:21:23,479
So it associates with your personal
self-worth, your self-esteem, your feeling

340
00:21:23,479 --> 00:21:25,640
strong and capable.

341
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,581
And if there's blocks in that chakra.

342
00:21:29,002 --> 00:21:34,445
the energy flowing through your body will
not be able to feel strong and capable.

343
00:21:34,445 --> 00:21:35,865
You'll feel weak.

344
00:21:35,965 --> 00:21:39,627
You might even start to have stomach
issues because it can affect the body in

345
00:21:39,627 --> 00:21:40,508
that way.

346
00:21:40,568 --> 00:21:44,450
So what I would say, if you walk into a
crystal shop and there's a particular

347
00:21:44,450 --> 00:21:48,692
crystal like that, Citrine, that you were
like, oh, it just makes me feel sick or I

348
00:21:48,692 --> 00:21:54,075
feel super nauseous or, you know, just I
just have to get away from it, then I

349
00:21:54,075 --> 00:21:58,277
would say there might be some personal
work that needs to be done.

350
00:21:58,546 --> 00:22:05,609
in that part of the body and with feelings
like feeling helpless, feeling worthless,

351
00:22:05,629 --> 00:22:11,073
feeling like your worth is connected to
what you can do, your productivity, what

352
00:22:11,073 --> 00:22:12,493
you can get done.

353
00:22:12,653 --> 00:22:17,436
And I do a session called Chakra Balancing
with my drumming and it's part of what I

354
00:22:17,436 --> 00:22:22,259
do in a Reiki session, but it's just a 30
minute session where I will actually go

355
00:22:22,259 --> 00:22:24,960
through and drum each of the

356
00:22:27,466 --> 00:22:32,347
any blockages that are connected to them,
and then we get to replace them, and we

357
00:22:32,347 --> 00:22:35,688
make sure that your chakras are all
balanced and flowing.

358
00:22:36,268 --> 00:22:40,989
So that might be a good place to start to
work on that.

359
00:22:41,269 --> 00:22:46,751
And I have an experience with this because
I had an aversion to the color orange for

360
00:22:46,751 --> 00:22:47,411
a long time.

361
00:22:47,411 --> 00:22:53,012
Things like orange juice or anything
orange, I was just extremely like, ugh.

362
00:22:53,012 --> 00:22:55,033
And I actually loved the taste of orange
juice.

363
00:22:55,033 --> 00:22:56,814
I just didn't like the color orange.

364
00:22:56,814 --> 00:22:58,154
for many, many years.

365
00:22:58,154 --> 00:23:03,796
And orange is associated with the sacral
chakra, which is your reproductive organs

366
00:23:04,217 --> 00:23:06,137
located right below the belly button.

367
00:23:06,357 --> 00:23:11,800
Now, it's no surprise there that I had
sacral chakra issues with my healing

368
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:16,702
journey that I had to work on,
codependency patterns, absorbing other

369
00:23:16,702 --> 00:23:23,945
people's emotions, learning to accept
pleasure, and then physically finding out

370
00:23:23,945 --> 00:23:26,162
when I was very young that I was
infertile.

371
00:23:26,162 --> 00:23:27,742
had infertility issues.

372
00:23:27,742 --> 00:23:32,085
So, no surprise I had sacral chakra
issues.

373
00:23:32,125 --> 00:23:37,768
But as I went through my healing journey
and as I worked particularly hard on those

374
00:23:37,768 --> 00:23:41,910
issues, I started to notice that I started
to love orange.

375
00:23:42,110 --> 00:23:46,472
It wasn't repulsive anymore or like just
not my favorite color.

376
00:23:46,713 --> 00:23:53,016
Suddenly it looked to me like a beautiful
sunset or like a juicy delicious orange.

377
00:23:53,016 --> 00:23:55,717
And that was really appealing to me.

378
00:23:56,110 --> 00:24:01,333
So it's really cool to see the
associations between how we feel and our

379
00:24:01,333 --> 00:24:03,734
thoughts and feelings about the colors
we're seeing.

380
00:24:03,895 --> 00:24:10,779
Now I might recommend to this person who
has this kind of repulsed feeling with

381
00:24:10,779 --> 00:24:16,984
citrine, I might say look for a crystal
that is great for the solar plexus, a

382
00:24:16,984 --> 00:24:22,427
crystal or an herb or a Bach flower
essence that is particularly resonating

383
00:24:22,427 --> 00:24:25,970
with the solar plexus and use that.

384
00:24:25,970 --> 00:24:32,252
instead for a while until that energy can
be changed and healed.

385
00:24:32,252 --> 00:24:33,733
It's really kind of cool.

386
00:24:33,733 --> 00:24:39,075
I can't wait to work with you more on
colors and how colors can come into play

387
00:24:39,075 --> 00:24:42,676
when we talk about energy because that is
the kind of energy that I work with a lot

388
00:24:42,676 --> 00:24:43,817
in prism healing.

389
00:24:43,817 --> 00:24:48,399
That's why I named my business prism
healing because I work with colors a lot

390
00:24:48,399 --> 00:24:53,541
and we pull things out in colors and we
visualize colors and we do painting and

391
00:24:53,541 --> 00:24:55,261
art classes with colors.

392
00:24:55,518 --> 00:25:00,882
Speaking of that, next week on our
episode, we're gonna talk a little bit

393
00:25:00,882 --> 00:25:03,003
more about the words.

394
00:25:03,003 --> 00:25:06,206
We're talking about spells and creating
spells.

395
00:25:06,206 --> 00:25:10,369
We're gonna really focus on the words and
do a whole episode just on that.

396
00:25:10,769 --> 00:25:13,231
And coming up, I do have some workshops.

397
00:25:13,231 --> 00:25:15,533
So look on my website.

398
00:25:15,693 --> 00:25:20,636
My website is prism-healing.com.

399
00:25:21,770 --> 00:25:23,191
And I have some events coming up.

400
00:25:23,191 --> 00:25:27,294
I have a workshop that is a painting
through art workshop where we are going to

401
00:25:27,294 --> 00:25:35,020
go through an emotional process and using
colors, I get to help you work through

402
00:25:35,020 --> 00:25:38,583
emotion points and paint out those colors.

403
00:25:38,723 --> 00:25:41,185
And that workshop is for everybody, not
just artists.

404
00:25:41,185 --> 00:25:47,931
You can just sign up for it as if it's a
healing class and then everyone gets to

405
00:25:47,931 --> 00:25:51,453
create a beautiful masterpiece when
they're painting out their.

406
00:25:51,486 --> 00:25:52,486
emotions.

407
00:25:52,486 --> 00:25:54,969
So take a look at my website.

408
00:25:54,969 --> 00:25:56,470
You can find my services there.

409
00:25:56,470 --> 00:26:01,374
You can find my website blog and that is
another great place to reach out to me if

410
00:26:01,374 --> 00:26:05,518
you want to ask a question that can be
featured on the podcast on the next

411
00:26:05,518 --> 00:26:06,459
episode.

412
00:26:06,459 --> 00:26:14,665
Also follow me on Instagram because I am
at prism underscore healing on Instagram.

413
00:26:14,686 --> 00:26:18,909
And I love to use Instagram for a platform
to just share information.

414
00:26:18,909 --> 00:26:24,094
So if there's any more resources or we can
deep dive into any of these things, that's

415
00:26:24,094 --> 00:26:25,815
where you're going to find that.

416
00:26:25,856 --> 00:26:27,397
So look for me there.

417
00:26:27,417 --> 00:26:29,139
You can also find me on Facebook.

418
00:26:29,139 --> 00:26:30,960
I am Courtney Pearl.

419
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:32,622
And I also have a page called Mrs.

420
00:26:32,622 --> 00:26:38,467
Earl's Art and Storytime, which is where I
post a lot of what I do, a lot of the work

421
00:26:38,467 --> 00:26:41,209
that I'm doing with my students.

422
00:26:41,574 --> 00:26:45,176
my art students and my art classes.

423
00:26:45,517 --> 00:26:51,001
And so look for me in any of those places
and you can sneak into my DMs if you'd

424
00:26:51,001 --> 00:26:52,902
like and ask me some questions.

425
00:26:52,902 --> 00:26:59,487
They can be questions about anything,
magic, energy, emotional healing.

426
00:26:59,948 --> 00:27:02,009
Maybe you have a question about
relationships.

427
00:27:02,009 --> 00:27:07,033
Maybe you have a question about resources
that might be available.

428
00:27:07,473 --> 00:27:08,133
So.

429
00:27:08,158 --> 00:27:11,922
reach out to me on my social media or any
of those platforms and you can ask me

430
00:27:11,922 --> 00:27:12,822
questions.

431
00:27:12,923 --> 00:27:19,390
All right, so your task is to figure out
how magic can be used in your everyday

432
00:27:19,390 --> 00:27:20,291
life.

433
00:27:20,291 --> 00:27:25,017
You can use magic to strengthen
relationships, to heal, to prosper, to

434
00:27:25,017 --> 00:27:26,218
thrive.

435
00:27:26,318 --> 00:27:29,341
Magic isn't just for the witchcraft.

436
00:27:29,526 --> 00:27:31,007
witchy people like me.

437
00:27:31,007 --> 00:27:32,107
It's for everyone.

438
00:27:32,107 --> 00:27:36,891
So look for reasons and places in your
life where you're using magic and where

439
00:27:36,891 --> 00:27:43,155
you'd like to use magic and what sort of
things you'd like to use the magic for.

440
00:27:43,776 --> 00:27:46,918
Like the wealth and prosperity we talked
about today.

441
00:27:46,998 --> 00:27:51,701
Okay, I would love to thank Ride the Wave
Media, Blaine and Bex.

442
00:27:52,134 --> 00:27:57,235
A Daybreak Treasures boutique who features
me as an artist on their website and

443
00:27:57,235 --> 00:27:59,856
sponsors a lot of the events that I do.

444
00:27:59,996 --> 00:28:07,399
And stay tuned for next week where we will
dive deeper into these magical concepts.

445
00:28:07,399 --> 00:28:13,461
In the meantime, be magical, my witches
and wizards, and I will see you soon.
