Spiritual Growth and Personal Insights: A 2024 Forecast with Aphantasia Experiments

Robin [00:00:00]:
Hello, and welcome to another episode of Aphantasia Experiments. I think I might actually post this on psychic school as well. That's my other podcast that I don't really use as much. But I'm planning in this episode to do some 2024 predictions because it is almost the end of 2023. It's December mind, and I'm picking my kids up early from school today because it's early dismissal. And so I'm gonna have my kids home for 2 weeks, and I'm not gonna be able to podcast. And by the time I come back, it's gonna be a new year. And I thought, Hey.

Robin [00:00:35]:
Why don't I do a New Year's predict 2024 mind of thing? So I'm gonna get into that, hopefully. I wanted to share a couple things with you. So I said on my last Podcast. I was going for a job interview. I got the job. Exciting stuff. I will tell you more about it in the future, but it's a job in compassion and care. And that is basically exactly what I wanted.

Robin [00:01:00]:
I wanted to do something meaningful with my life and help people and work with my heart mind I I found something. So I haven't started it yet. I start in the new year, but, I'm throwing that out there. I feel like, you know, I I came from a background in marketing and design and publishing. And, I'm not saying that's like a soulless job or anything. It's important. I mean, books have to be read. Not they don't have but books are something that live on forever.

Robin [00:01:34]:
And designing them, putting them together, there's value in it. So it's not like my the last, you know, 20 years of my life, 15 years of my life has been wasted, but I got to a certain point where I was like, this is not who I am. And maybe it was who I was at 23, but it's not who I am now. You know? The the experiences you have in life Change you and mold you into the being that you're supposed to be or, like, the things that happen throughout your life change you, or Make you realize who you truly are and who you always have been, what you've been putting on, like, a mask or whatever. So In the last 3 years, I've just it's just hit me so hard that I'm supposed to be Working with people in a compassionate way. Like, it it's just I don't know how to explain it other than, like, I need to lead with my heart mind that For me, it's not sitting on a computer designing stuff for clients or designing books or marketing books, even though there is value in that. So if you're working in publishing and you're like, I don't matter. Well, you do, but things in life Change you.

Robin [00:02:54]:
And you there's unexpected turns in life, and, we're just supposed to go with the flow of it. And just know that, If things don't feel like they're working out, it just means that there's stuff going on in the background that you don't know about, and it's gonna be fine. I like, 2 months ago, I I, like, I was sitting there writing down, like, my wish list of things I would do for work and Just like feeling so lost. You know? So lost. I I do this podcast and I talk and I vent and I ramble, but I don't really talk about that. Like, feeling like I did I was doing something for so long mind then all of a sudden, I was like, I can't. I hit a wall. I can't do this anymore.

Robin [00:03:43]:
I can't be this person anymore. I have to, like, figure out who I am, find my soul. And so that's what I've been doing. And I feel I really feel like I'm at this point where I'm like, this is it. I'm I'm in it. You know? It's exciting. And it's only gonna get better, I anyways, I'm reading this book right now. This is totally off topic.

Robin [00:04:14]:
It's not at all what I was just talking about. But I'm reading this book. It's by John Holland. I read a book of his before. Let me see if I can pull it up here. So I actually say the right name of the book. It's bridging 2 realms. Okay? I'm reading it.

Robin [00:04:29]:
It's good. In the 1st chapter, he's talking about how there's certain parts of the world that have a thinner veil. So the book is talking about, like, how to communicate with loved ones who's who's who have crossed over and stuff. And it's talking about Oh, there's certain places that are the the the veil is in there, like churches, what kind of places of worship, Sacred places throughout the world, pyramids. Like, there's all these places that are super. The veil is super thin. So if you wanna communicate with loved ones who've who've crossed over or whatever, it's easier to do that in those places because The veil is thinner. I find that really interesting, for a couple reasons.

Robin [00:05:22]:
I don't actually know what the couple reasons are. Why did I say a couple reasons? So I feel this really a lot. Because some days I feel like I'm, like, Walking around, I'm just this human being. I'm not a spirit. Like, I just I feel like I'm in this material world, blah blah blah. And then other times, I'm like, I can feel things so strongly. And maybe it's the location I'm in or maybe it's the vibration that I'm putting out. I don't know.

Robin [00:05:53]:
I think it's a combination of both. But I wanna tell you a little story about something that happened to me. I think I've told this on the podcast before, but After reading this book, I'd like it gives me new insight into how, why, and how it happened. So when I went to England in Scotland when I was 14 or 15. I okay. First of all, we visited Stonehenge, which I think is one of those sacred spots, Like, where the veil is sinner. I remember feeling a lot of things there, and I remember seeing a bunch of sheep and being like for lambs. This is so random.

Robin [00:06:31]:
It has nothing to do with anything. But I saw a bunch of lambs mind I felt so connected to these lambs that I, like, Said I'm never eating a lamb again. Like and my parents made lamb often, but I I felt so deeply connected to these lambs that were by Stonehenge. I don't know why. And I don't even know if they're close to Stonehenge or not, but I just remember seeing these lambs when we went to see Stonehenge. And I was like, lambs, I love you. Anyways, random. So when I was in England, we stayed in this cottage y place.

Robin [00:07:03]:
I don't know how to describe it other than that. Like, very, very, very old English stone house. Like, it was made of big stones. I'm sure that's there's a word for that. But it had, like, greenery on the outside, like, Ivy? Is that what that is? I don't know what it's called, but the green it was so beautiful and so, like, charming, and there was just something special about this place face where I just felt like there wasn't buzzing in this house mind there's the energy was palpable. Like, I could feel it. And I told my brother and sister at the time, because I was having the craziest dreams when I was there, I was like, can we do spirit in the glass? Something to, like, Call on whatever. And and my brother I don't remember what my brother said.

Robin [00:07:52]:
My sister is not a believer at all, and that's fine. But, she shot down the idea right away, and that's fine. But I feel like if I had done some sort of, like, Spiritual connection, then I would have been able to get messages so clearly because I could feel it so much. When I was there, I had a dream. I've told this story before. I had a dream that I was in my best friend's pool, And I had a kid on my my son, like a boy on my hip. I knew it was my son in the dream. And at the time, I was only 14 when I was having the dream, so it didn't really make sense because I didn't have a boyfriend.

Robin [00:08:32]:
I didn't have anything. Like, I wasn't sexually active. I I it didn't make sense that I would have a kid. And then, Like, things change. Things change in a couple years. So at 17, I had a baby. And by 20 or 19, I was in my friend's pool with this 2 year old kid on my hip. And all of a sudden, I had this flash of, like, me being in England waking up to this story, this this dream, and being like, what the fuck was that? It all, like, came to me, like, I dreamt this before.

Robin [00:09:01]:
I've experienced this before. And I think that we have that a lot in our lives, like deja vu moments. It's the ones that you really remember that really fucked with your mind, like, in a good way. Like, this it makes me realize How connected everything is and how much our dreams really do share information with us and help us. Dreams are not just, like, random whatever. There's There's meaning behind them, mind oftentimes they predict things. So highly recommend you Started dream journal. I didn't have 1 back then, but those kind of dreams, I feel like certain types of dreams really stick with and that was one of them.

Robin [00:09:44]:
I've had other dreams that have stuck with me too, And I'm always sad when I wake up in the morning and I don't have a dream. Today, I woke up with the song in my head, and it was so loud I couldn't get back to But I don't know if you ever have this, but this is something that, I'm sure I've talked about before, but developing your own, like, psychic toolbox. Whenever you get a song in your head, write it down in your phone or make a playlist on Spotify or Amazon or whatever you use. And then listen to the music and see see how you feel, Like, see what the feelings you get from that music and the lyrics. Like, read the lyrics, see if there's any hidden messages in the lyrics, And also see if there's any connection to all the songs that you have in your head. Like, so if you have for a week, you have all these different songs come in your head. Write them all down and then see if there's any sort of connection to them because oftentimes, there's some sort of message that it's trying to get through that's really loud. So the song that I've had in my head was Rude by Magic, I think.

Robin [00:10:46]:
The line in my head specifically was, say yes, say yes, because I need to know. This whole song is about a guy proposing to a or asking it for, the the father's permission to propose to His daughter. And the guy saying no. But the I don't think the song was in my head because someone's gonna Propose. Oh my god. This just hit me. My friend literally just texted me. Oh, I gotta text her back.

Robin [00:11:18]:
It's just, oh, when you make connections on the spot is so funny. I don't I was gonna say I don't think it's, someone's gonna propose. I think that, it means that I need to say yes more to stuff because in the last few years, I've been mind of hermitting. I think because I needed to. I needed to do a lot of meditating. I needed to do a lot of, like, soul searching and stuff. But in this future, in 2020 for. And I believe, like, what's coming through for me is that a lot of people feel the same way that they've I think, obviously, it started with COVID, like, a lot of people hermit it.

Robin [00:11:52]:
But 2024 is the year of, like, coming out again mind, like, connecting with Bull and changing things and making differences and, not just, like, hermitting. So, that's what I think the song is about because I woke up and I had a flash in my head to the book, Year of Yes, which by the way, if you haven't read Year of Yes by Shonda Rhimes, especially if you're at Grey's Anatomy or whatever all the other shows, the amazing shows she has. If you're a fan of any of those shows, 100% read this book. It's so good. It was was actually one of the things that started me off on, like, my spiritual journey. This is not about talking to ghosts or dead people or whatever, but same thing, I guess. It was more about, like, finding myself and, like, finding joy, which honestly, like When you start reading, like, self help books, there's, like, the similar theme. Right? And you go down you can go down a rabbit hole of that, but that rabbit hole sometimes can lead to, like, a spiritual side of things, and it's Often, honestly, intertwined.

Robin [00:13:04]:
But, I'm definitely gonna read that book again. And if you haven't read it, I definitely how many times I'm gonna say definitely? I would absolutely recommend it. It's a great book. It definitely it just feels holy crap. Definitely is my, like, word of the day today. It feels like, It just feels so inspirational, and it feels like it makes you wanna do more. Shauna Rhimes Talks about how she was kind of hermity and she would often say no to things because she's a bit of an introvert. So she got invited to, like, dinner with the president mind and her, like, Initial reaction is no.

Robin [00:13:39]:
And I feel like I'm like that too. Like, a lot of I get nervous. Right? You get anxiety to go places or whatever. And so I say no sometimes, but I should probably just say yes. So with my new job, I'm excited. They invited me to, like, Holiday party, and I haven't met anyone. Haven't started working yet, but I'm going. It's out of town.

Robin [00:14:02]:
I'm going, and I'm gonna meet people. And this is, like, the beginning of my say yes journey because it's happening in 2024. But I think that was what I got from that song. Like, that was what came through to me. But my friend texted me before I started this podcast. As she texted me and she said, I have this feeling that your son's gonna propose to his girlfriend. And I was like, oh, shit. Not that, like, Like, I love his girlfriend.

Robin [00:14:28]:
She's wonderful, amazing. And funny fact, she actually has aphantasia too. Random. Right? My son doesn't, but his girlfriend does mind then my husband does. How weird is that 3 people have aphantasia in, like, the small group of people? Makes me think that way more people have it than You really know? But it's funny because my friend texted me and she was like, I have this feeling that Hunter's gonna propose to his girlfriend, and whatever. And then I had to I was like it just hit me that that that song is about, like, asking someone for permission, Hand mind marriage kind of thing mind not getting it. So I wonder, like, is my son gonna ask his girlfriend's, dad for permission, he's gonna say no. Maybe that's something.

Robin [00:15:11]:
I don't think he's going to do it, but I'm I'm sure it'll happen in the future. They're still young, but they're mind of being held back from not held Yeah. Mind held back from doing stuff because, she her family is religious. And that's totally great and wonderful and perfect and Grand. Perfect. Maybe not the right word, but, but for my son who's, like, had other girlfriends for and, you know, got on vacation with them and stuff. Now he's in a relationship where he can't do those things. They can hang out and stuff, but they can't Overnights, they can't go places, and and so it limits them.

Robin [00:15:55]:
Right? So as a mother, I worry that, You know, he's gonna rush into getting married young because then he'll be able to experience life with her. But I also, like, I want him to, like, experience his life in his own way, and my worry isn't gonna help him at all. So So if he wants to propose to his girlfriend tomorrow, I will support him in that. I don't I don't necessarily think it's the greatest idea because I think they're too young, but I had a baby at 17. So who am I to judge? Right? Maybe it would be wonderful. Anyways, they're not getting married. But it's funny that that song was in my head mind then my friend texted me, like, they've been together 2 years. Maybe maybe it's a thing.

Robin [00:16:37]:
I think my son would tell me though. Anyways, What else do I have to talk about today? I'm gonna pull some cards to do a bit of a a future 2024 reading here. So I don't really know what else to say. What else do I wanna talk about? I read oh, this is good actually. I read a book by oh, I'm not gonna remember the name. But if you just Google nurse Hadley, it'll come up. So Hadley again, I don't even know her last name. This is terrible.

Robin [00:17:16]:
But she is a, hospice nurse and she wrote a book and it's really good. It's not like overly spiritual or anything, but it talks a I feel like what happens when you die and, like the the miraculous things like people who have either deathbed visions. They see see their loved ones. That That happens all the time. Not all the time, but often. Okay? And the other thing is, Alzheimer's patients, dementia Patients often get terminal lucidity. So, like, right before they die, the days or hours before they die, they often, like, will remember stuff, know who who their family is, know everything, thing and then will die shortly after. We don't know what causes that, but the book talks about it.

Robin [00:17:58]:
It's really good and it's really, Heartfelt mind you can just feel the love from her. Like, she's just a beam of love and light and, the The book was so good. So I just wanted to recommend that. Why did I say that? Well, because I wanted to recommend it, but there wasn't something else I saw of hers on TikTok, and I've kind of adapted this method to my own life. She did, she talked about how she wakes at the morning excited because and she said She's a death she works with death. Right? So but with that comes a lot of heartfelt beautiful moments. So she said she wakes up in the morning happy, Excited to, see when her next beautiful moment's gonna come. So she posted this in or this TikTok, and It was like she just went through her day with all these beautiful moments, and it it was so inspirational to me.

Robin [00:19:00]:
So Though I try I'm trying really to live that way and to just be, like, expecting the next beautiful thing. Expect wonderful things to happen, and then you can be like, Look at this wonderful link. And also, like, recognize that wonderful things happen all the time And we kinda just, like, are walking through life and not seeing any of it, you know. Here's an example of a wonder thing wonderful thing happening. I'm just Spreading them on the cards here. This morning, I was really upset. I I don't know what it is about the holidays. I'm like, I'm usually pretty level headed, but I've been really emotional And today, I went I was like, I need to get out of the house.

Robin [00:19:40]:
I'm gonna go to the gym. I went to the gym. I went to the steam room, and then I left. And as I was driving to the store to buy some last minute Christmas presents, I was So emotional, and I just started bawling on my drive for no reason. You know? You know? Maybe not everyone gets this, but I do. I get emotions. And Fun fact, scientific research says that when you cry, it releases like a stress hormone, so it actually makes you feel better. So Crying is not a terrible thing.

Robin [00:20:09]:
Don't hold in your tears. Let them out. If you're scared to cry in front of people, cry in your car, cry in the shower, cry somewhere. But let it out because it It helps overcome things and feel better. So don't feel bad about crying. So I was crying and I also feel like when you cry So there's 2 sides to this. When you cry, when you're upset, your loved ones really try to, like, lower their their vibration to come to you. But because you're so upset, you often don't see it.

Robin [00:20:34]:
So I think that's why that your loved ones will try to seek into your dreams on those times, like when you're really upset or, like, Just feel lost or whatever. They can often come to your your dreams to, like, encourage you or make you feel better. The other part to that is, I don't know. I don't know what I was just talking about. The dreams. Sorry. This is my dog's barking in the background, so it's distracting me. Oh, yeah.

Robin [00:21:04]:
So I was driving in the car. Sorry. I lost my train of thought. I was driving the car crying, and I was just talking out loud. I was like, My ancestors, my loved ones, everyone I know who's crossed, my higher self. I don't know why I'm feeling this way, but I do sign. I need something. Like, I just need something to happen.

Robin [00:21:25]:
I'm like, can you play a song on the radio that makes Makes me feel better or uplifted or, like, supported, you know? I'm just if you don't talk to yourself in the car, I highly recommend it. So I'm just talking. I look over and there's a guy staring at me. I'm like, whatever. I could just be talking on the phone. He has no idea I'm talking to myself, but, you know, you have those moments that are like, oh my god, or when you're singing in the car. I did that too. Anyways, so I'm saying this.

Robin [00:21:52]:
When I pull into Marshall's Parking lot, the store I was going to. I hadn't heard anything on the radio. I turned the radio on. I had been listening to this book. Turn the radio on. It was just commercials. So I was like, okay. I'm not getting my sign right now, and that's fine.

Robin [00:22:06]:
So going to Marshall's, I'm looking around, so I don't know why my bark my dog is barking so much. She's not that much of a barker. You hear that? You can't hear it. She's what the fuck is she doing? Oh my god. Sorry. It's driving me crazy. So I go into Marshall's. I get some stuff.

Robin [00:22:28]:
And then as I'm leaving, there's a man playing the guitar. Like, What's it called? When you panhandle? Like, there's a guy outside of the store playing the guitar with his guitar thing there, wanting money, whatever. But the song he's singing the song he's singing Holy fuck. I gotta deal with my dog. Sorry. I'm gonna go upstairs with this phone. It's anybody here barking. Was you are my sunshine.

Robin [00:23:01]:
So he's saying, you are my sunshine, my only sunshine, and you make me happy. And I'm like walking away from this man just Balling. Like, it's busy parking lot. I'm like, oh. There was a song my grandmother used to sing. And I'm like, of all the songs in the entire universe, that song means something to me, and he was singing it. And he looked I mean, the eyes, it was like he knew. You know? He knew.

Robin [00:23:27]:
It was like he was an angel sent just for that moment. You know? So there's one of my beautiful moments of the day. Beautiful moments. Sorry. That's the door. I went all the way upstairs. My dog was totally fine. Feel like it was just an Amazon delivery guy.

Robin [00:23:43]:
She does not like those guys, and there's a lot of them at Christmas time. A whole lot of them. Okay. I'm gonna pull some cards, because I think I'm gonna make this a shorter podcast. I think it's 23 minutes already. I don't know. Okay. Okay.

Robin [00:24:02]:
Let's see what we got here. For 2024, what do we think is gonna happen in 24 20 24. If you have a prediction that you wanna send to me, do it. My email is rafocreative@gmail.com. Also my website, apoedisiaexperiments.com. I have a a section of my website under experiments where I have a couple sections Parts that you can share stuff with me. It doesn't matter which 1 you share on, just share share your experiences with aphantasia, share your experiences through psychic development, share Share your predictions for 2020 4. Why not? Right? Let me know what you think is gonna happen in 2024.

Robin [00:24:40]:
Before I pull a card, one of the things that I was getting really strong the other day was and this is not a positive thing, it's a negative thing. But, I think there's gonna be a lot of storms in 2024. And what I mean by that is like a lot of environmental Anomalies, like really weird environmental things. I know we're, like, going through a global warming and that's probably, like, just normal stuff. But when I Saw. So was it like a week ago? There was a tornado. There was a bunch of tornadoes in Tennessee mind I was watching this and I was thinking, this isn't normal. Is it? Is this normal for, like, this massive tornado to happen in December? And the thought I had was, like, this is just the beginning.

Robin [00:25:28]:
Like, we're gonna go through these, like, wild hurricane storms, tornadoes, like, just Mind environmental shifts and and and things. So Hopefully, that doesn't happen but it's just it came to me so strong. And, something I've had in my head for the last, like, Year and a half. It's a song that plays in my head. It's not a song. It's made up. But it says don't forget about the storm, the storm, the storm. Don't forget about The storm, the storm, the storm.

Robin [00:26:01]:
And that just plays in my head. So I feel like there's a storm coming. I don't know. Every time there's some sort of weather thing, I'm like, is this the storm? But then I get the song like that lyric again in my head. So I feel like there is a storm coming mind I think it just means that we need to like Be protected like and be aware that weather and stuff can change and to mind of Be prepared for anything, I guess. Okay. Sorry. I haven't actually pulled a card yet.

Robin [00:26:30]:
That was just one thing. And the other thing was like a lot of people, are gonna be coming out of this like, I had said it before, like, the hermeneing stage. The stage of, like, finding yourself and, like, rediscovering who you are. If it hasn't happened already in 2024, you're gonna lean into that more. You're gonna, you know, find yourself more and mind, Feel more comfortable in your skin and be able to project yourself into the world in a more positive, more uplifting way. Like showing up. You're gonna show up more for yourself and for other people in 2024. You're gonna be more social.

Robin [00:27:13]:
You're gonna I have more things to attend and more opportunities. That's what I'm getting. 2024. It's been like a 3 year 3 year, like, dark phase. I'm I'm thinking like 2020, 2019, 2020, like, when we were going through the COVID COVID stuff, That like trickled over to the last 3 years. Yes. We went back to work. We went we started doing things more normally again.

Robin [00:27:39]:
We stopped wearing masks, whatever. But this like solitude, the experience that we had during COVID, being at home with our family, Being sheltered, being, almost trapped. Right? Like I love my family, but spending that much time with them, I was like, oh my god. Get me out of here, you know? I think that those moments and that challenging time has made a lot of people reflect on their lives and and and realize what's working, what's not working. And for the last 3 years since COVID happened, A lot of people have been reassessing and and sitting with their feelings and emotions. Sitting with this like Feeling of, okay, I'm here on this earth, but I'm not on my right path and I need to figure the figure that shit out. So Figuring your stuff out often takes retreating. I think of like the card in tarot, the hermit is it the hermit card? So I'm I'm just saying Herman a bunch in this episode.

Robin [00:28:47]:
I think about that. It's like you do that to rediscover yourself or like to get to know And that's an important part of life. If you're always out, you know, partying, whatever, If you're out doing stuff all the time, you're working, you know, 9 to 9 and then you go home and you do this and blah blah blah. You're constantly moving. You're never gonna really stop and be like, who am I? You know? How often do you look in the mirror and be like, Who are you or, like, talk to yourself or, like, get to know yourself. And if you haven't done that in years, if you didn't do that during COVID, I think 2024 is gonna be a time where you're gonna start doing that, reflecting on your life a little bit more, and making some changes. Maybe everything is is rainbow mind butterflies and you don't need to make changes, but I feel like a lot of us are A lot of us have been stuck mind, there's a shift coming. There's a shift coming.

Robin [00:29:51]:
It's it's like an inspirational shift. And a storm. I don't know. And I wanted to put some positivity there. Okay. I'm gonna pull, I don't know, 3 cards. 1st card I got was fulfillment of wishes. So if you have have in 2023, if you've been like and this is another thing.

Robin [00:30:09]:
Okay? It's saying fulfillment of wishes. So if you wanna make some changes in your life, if you any of this is resonating with you or you're like, I've been a hermit for the last 3 years. I haven't really gone out and done anything. I want a new job. I want new things. I want a new career. I want a child. I want a new husband.

Robin [00:30:24]:
I want a new family or whatever it is. Whatever it is. Whatever it is, write it down because it's saying right here, we're gonna get our fulfillment of wishes. Okay? And it's I know when you talk about, like, manifesting and stuff, It can often sound like so crazy, but I'm telling you every time I've actually written down what I want, It is it is materialized. That's not true. I really want an iPad with Procreate. Haven't got that yet. But anything, like, career wise, relationship wise, like, with my husband who I love dearly When I said the husband thing, I hope no one thinks that I want a new husband because he's amazing.

Robin [00:31:15]:
I I was frustrated with him recently and I was talking to my guides about it mind I was like, I really want him to See my perspective of this and, like, come to me in a more supportive way because he's super supportive, but his he's not great with emotions. So He can come off a little cold even though his, like, intentions are completely, warm and wonderful. Anyways, he We had this conversation about, you know, money and stuff. I'm not working currently. I'm just doing freelance. So, it's concerning. Like, we have mortgage, whatever. We have 3 kids, 4 kids, really.

Robin [00:31:57]:
Mind he knows that I'm, like, in this phase of finding myself and whatever. And he's been really supportive mind but it's also like, okay, we need money. But I just wanted him to to approach it in a more supportive way. And he literally did. The next day, I was like, who is this person? This is exactly what I needed from him. And he showed up for me in this Beautiful way, and I was like, thank you. All I had to do was ask. I feel like a lot of times we think that people are are, like, stuck in their ways or whatever.

Robin [00:32:29]:
And if you can ask your guides, your ancestors, and their ancestors, their guides to help, It doesn't necessarily mean that you need to, like, change the person, but if you want something out of them like more support or, You know, more love or whatever it is. A, you need to, like, meet them, like, match their that vibration. You need to be a supportive person. If you want to you you want your husband to hug you more, why don't you hug your husband more? You know what I mean? Like, those kind of things. If you want, You know, your kids to be nicer to you, you have to actively be nice so they see niceness. Right? So they they Mimic that behavior. I have no idea where the fuck I'm going with this. But the point is, if you want your wishes fulfilled, write that shit down.

Robin [00:33:21]:
There is this thing. You can Google it. I I've watched a couple things on it, but Nikola Tesla, another book I read. Very fascinating. It's free on Audible if you wanna read it. The, Nikola Tesla, it's his autobiography. It's It's like the book of inventions or something. Very interesting man.

Robin [00:33:40]:
He would visualize everything he invented and have it like Perfectly created in his mind and be like and then he'd be like, well, I know it works because I have it in my mind and I can do that. It just made me wanna visualize so much more. Where the fuck was I going with Tesla? Oh, yeah. Okay. So for manifesting purposes, I don't know where this came from, but there's this theory, with the numbers 3, 6, and 9 in the triangle. Oh, I'm not gonna explain this properly. But if you want something in life, the key is from this theory is to Say it 3 times. No.

Robin [00:34:32]:
Wait. Oh, no. Three affirmations, Six times, 9 times a day, is it? Or 9 days. I don't know. There's a Google it because I'm not getting this right, but it's like You have to say it aloud 3 times, 3 times but 6 times a day for for 9 days. I think that's what it is. That might be completely wrong. But it's this, like, concept that we actually have to ask for things, And sometimes it takes asking more than once.

Robin [00:35:05]:
So just throwing that out there. If you don't feel like life is going your way, Start talking to your higher self and to your guides and ask for shit. Telling you, ask for it. You are an important person who deserves wonderful things. Start asking. Telling you it works. Telling you it works. It works.

Robin [00:35:25]:
Okay. Base chakra, that's the root chakra. We all need to work on our root chakra this year. It's something that's come up for me a ton. I did a lot of work on grounding in the First half of the year or sorry. The second half of the year in the summer and fall months. I'm totally not grounded now. I need to, like, get back into it, but I hate the cold so I haven't been going outside to ground, but like connecting to your root chakra, there's other ways you can do it.

Robin [00:35:50]:
So working on that, connecting because you you need to feel you're in your body in this world. It's important. Sacrifice. I've gotten this sacrifice card so many times. The Person on it almost mind looks like me. It's weird. Like long brown hair. It's very it's a very generic picture, like but I'm I got long brown hair.

Robin [00:36:21]:
She is in this weird position. She's got a rainbow coming out of her mind Flowers all around her. It doesn't look like she's really sacrificing anything. She looks really happy and she looks like she's she's like creating this magical world. But I think I'm just gonna pull another card to deal with this because I don't really know. Oh, that's funny. I got suffering in silence. And maybe that's what it's been the last 3 years you've been suffering in silence and now You've, like, made the sacrifice of who you've you who you are supposed to be for so long mind now you're ready to Dive into this version of yourself, this beautiful rainbow infused version of yourself.

Robin [00:37:07]:
Stop suffering. Speak out loud Because if you're silent and you're brewing in your mind and you want things, life isn't going your way, you're suffering in silence, Start actually talking about what you want in life instead of just suffering. And then the next card I pulled was hope And it's the card is like this glowing light in someone's hand and there's a picture of like a man in the middle of the glowingness, but it's It represents hope. I mean, duh. Like, believe. Believe there's something more. Believe that there's magic. You know? Believe believe that life is working for you, not against you.

Robin [00:37:52]:
I I think that's a really important thing that people need to understand. The life is like what you make out of it. And if you don't ask for things that you want, if you don't Take action towards your goals. If you don't do those things, then life is gonna seem miserable and bleak. But if you can stop suffering in silence, make some sacrifices to change your life, you know, connect to your Your base chakra, life's gonna be great. Mind That's my last card. I pulled the destiny card, which is a woman multiplied a bunch of times In a circle. Basically, it just means that we're we're different versions of ourselves throughout our life.

Robin [00:38:43]:
I'm looking at this. This is what I'm getting from it. And the version that you're supposed to meet is your destiny. And This version of yourself can only come from taking those steps, leaning into yourself, Getting to know yourself. And if you haven't, like, if you haven't in the last 3 years tried to get to know yourself, that's what 2024 is gonna be for you. And for those people who have gotten to know themselves, 2024 is going to be magical. And the people that haven't got to know their selves, it's gonna be magical for you too because getting to know yourself is Really magical and wonderful and beautiful. Yeah.

Robin [00:39:24]:
I think that's gonna be all for today. I don't even really know what I talked about. So, it should be interesting to listen back to this. Anyways, I hope everyone has a wonderful I'm sorry. I didn't talk about Aphantasia at all today. Although I did mention Nikola Tesla. I feel like for people with aphantasia, it's a really good read because it explains a lot about his visual visualizing. And also he talks about In it, how he would like his visual when he was visualizing, it would start with I think this is what it was.

Robin [00:39:52]:
It would start with, like, a bright light that was, like, flashing and then it would build he could build other stuff after that. It It was like he was entering this astral plane or whatever. And this is something that I get when I'm in really deep meditation. I'll get either, like, flashing lights in my mind or, patterns or something. And I I don't know if it's what he was doing. I think his was more intentional like yeah. Obviously, I had a really good imagination. Anyways, there's my aphantasia component.

Robin [00:40:23]:
Nikola Tesla did not have aphantasia. There you go. That that's it, I guess. Have a great, wonderful, amazing holiday. I probably won't podcast till after the break mind I'm I am going to be starting a new job. I do plan on still doing this though. I think that the new job I'm gonna be able to share a lot of really interesting experiences, hopefully. If not, whatever.

I feel like with spiritual stuff, You go through this, like, spiritual awakening mind then you're like, you wanna work in something spiritual. Right? You wanna work so I start this website. I have my tarot readings on there that you can purchase. But, I feel like all all these different spiritual podcasters or spiritual people, everyone has like a funnel system where you go on their website and it's like funnel, and it takes you to buy something.

It's like, I'll teach you how to be intuitive for $6,000, whatever it is.
