As this podcast goes to air, we have moved through the eclipse season, yet there is still lots of turbulence in the air. Ongoing planetary transits are continually activating cosmic energies, which in turn impact humanity.

A particularly significant transit is that of Pluto, the planet associated with transformation, shadows, death, and rebirth. Pluto has been doing a little “dance” moved into Aquarius and then retrograded back into Capricorn, leading to considerable upheaval and transformation in themes related to systems, structures, business, and government.

This transit encourages breaking free from traditional constraints and exploring new identities and ways of being.Expect a surge in revolutionary ideas and unconventional approaches to problems, as Pluto encourages people to challenge the status quo and seek transformative solutions.

Where I am, we are moving deeper into the fall season and noticing the days are getting shorter, the light is shifting.. the Veils are thinning.  An expression used in spiritual, mystical, and even poetic contexts. It suggests that the barriers between different realms of existence— the physical and spiritual worlds—are becoming less pronounced. Opening us up to increased awareness and sensitivity to spiritual experiences, energies, or insights.

it is believed that the boundary between the living and the spiritual is more permeable. It can evoke a sense of heightened intuition, connection to the unseen, or the potential for profound revelations

This also speaks to a collective shift in awareness. As more people become attuned to spiritual practices and consciousness, the overall understanding of interconnectedness and spirituality may deepen.

It is a time to explore your spiritual path, embrace transformation, and connect more deeply with both yourself and the broader universe. Expanding Consciousness is the subject on my next several podcasts. We will explore ways to expand our conspicuousness with the work of some of our formative teachers. We will discuss inspiring examples to help you can get out of your box and allow your Soul to guide you.

Are you in search of a Spiritual teacher, a mentor, someone to guide you to create a spiritual practice that addresses your needs at this time to awaken to your inner guidance? Do you want to learn about your soul’s purpose, break old energy drains and make better choices to find confidence in who you truly are?  My private mentoring programs can help you with that.

Client Testimonial – Regina Crane Mednick… https://www.instagram.com/reginacranemednick/

“I remember finding @terriannheiman on instagram early in 2021. I took her up on the free spiritual discovery call  that she was offering. I told her I was blocked. I didn’t even know what that meant at the time. I couldn’t explain it and that’s not something that can be handled in one call. She invited me to her mentorship program. I did not feel that I was looking for a spiritual mentor, but I followed her posts, just in case. In the spring of that year, I saw her 21 Day Radiant Light Challenge. OMG I love a challenge, I was in! I have done several of those since, meditating with her online group calls. There’s just something about meditating with a group. Yoga means to Yoke. Union. And that’s what this lady was serving up at 7am every day, for 21 days. Good stuff! And if I missed, she offered a replay on her app! You always win with her. In the years since, I’ve enjoyed 7am every Wednesday morning, EFT (tapping), always eager to catch her new moon and full moon meditations, received Reiki I and Reiki II certifications, browsed my Akashic Records with her, went on retreat with her to visit her Medicine Wheel and Land of Bohamia, and I have learned so much from her Master Class private mentoring offerings such as Monetize Your Energy. I have trained with her for 4 years now, both online and in-person. But you know what? It’s more than training. This is deeper. She has guided and supported me through the pain of my healing body from both physical injuries and trauma held in my body from past relationships. We do boundary work, this helps me recognize my energy. We do restorative work for the soul. It strange to call something so enjoyable work, but just like with anything else you have to show up to get paid. I am blessed to have noticed Terri in my scrolling that day.”

Cathy Coleman, Ph.D., was Ralph Metzner’s wife of 31 years (1988-2019). She worked at the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS) as Director of Student Services and later Dean of Students when Ralph was Academic Dean and professor. Cathy later worked as Executive Director of EarthRise Retreat Center at the Institute of Noetic Sciences, as President of Kepler College (of Astrological Arts and Scienes), and with CIIS’ Center for Psychedelic-Assisted Therapies and Research. She was co-founder with Ralph Metzner, and is a current board member of the Green Earth Foundation. She is also a professional consulting astrologer.

Cathy Coleman compiled and edited this memorial collection of essays, known as Festschrift, which is a celebration of writings. comprises personal homages as to how Ralph impacted the contributors’ lives. While some collections are strictly academic works focusing on themes of the person’s life work, this compilation includes both academic and personal essays. Ralph Metzner was a visionary scholar who led a long and illustrious life. He was considered brilliant by his colleagues and was associated with Timothy Leary, Ram Das, Allen Ginsberg,  and Albert Hoffman, the founder of LSD. He and his colleagues opened the door for so much research to follow especially in death and dying.

Ralph’s messages are healing and reminds us that we’re all interconnected and that, death is really a part of life and nothing to be feared.

As Cathy shared with us….

We are endless creative  and unfolding beings with so much potential.

It is so important to listen to all the voices and messages your can tap into and honor those.

One of the messages from Ralph that came forward for me in reading the book was

Only once the hurt received and inflicted is openly and truthfully acknowledged can authentic healing take place.

I agree. We must face the darkness to free us to the find the light.

As we progress further into the season of Halloween, All Saints Day, and the Day of the Dead, it’s a moment to delve into discussions about our spiritual journeys, the cycles of life, death, and transition, and to explore how we can expand our consciousness.

Psychedelics, no psychedelics, even the healing energy of Reiki, can provide valuable support in this exploration.

This isn’t just new age.  From the work of Ralph Metzner and his colleague, we have a foundation to draw upon and build upon.

Death is an important aspect of life. Why not have  a way to make this transition easier and with more grace?

I am increasingly sharing my work in palliative and end-of-life care. If you know someone who could benefit from this support, please reach out. Help is available for them.

Thanks again for listening!

To your Spirit,

Terri
