This Saturday September 9, 2023, at 10:00 AM Pacific Time, I\u2019m hosting a very different kind of Zoom call to help you and many others delve into and better understand the spiritual role of money in your life. It\u2019s called The Spirit of Money<\/em>, and I invite you to attend. This post has all the details. It\u2019s coming up fast, which is by design, so I suggest you read this now and then decide if you\u2019re going to join us.<\/p>\n

On this call I\u2019ll share information and insights that I\u2019ve never shared before, and we\u2019ll talk you through some guided exercises as well. This is going to be new and different \u2013 very<\/em> different as you\u2019ll soon see if you keep reading.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll spend most of our time on this call in the space of vibes, energy patterns, and spirit-level insights. So this won\u2019t be a call about the mental or financial aspects of money such as budgeting or income strategies. We won\u2019t be talking about plans and action steps. And reframes? Not so much.<\/p>\n

Purpose<\/h2>\n

The purpose of this call is to open up and maintain a very high-vibe spiritual space, invite you to show up with your intentions (both related and unrelated to money), and allow yourself to receive and process the spirit-level guidance and support that comes through for you, as you help us hold the receptive container in which inspired insights can be received, positive transformations can occur, and no-longer-needed filters and blocks can be relaxed or removed.<\/p>\n

You can expect this to be mostly non-linear. I won\u2019t be teaching a step-by-step process or anything of that nature.<\/p>\n

Your Intentions<\/h2>\n

Set and bring your own intentions to the call because this is a key part of the experience. What would you like to work on within this spiritual container?<\/p>\n

What aspects of your life would you like to better understand and\/or transform?<\/p>\n

Your intentions needn\u2019t even be related to money. I\u2019ll explain more about that in the next section.<\/p>\n

Do you sense that there\u2019s some kind of inner work for you to do next? This is an opportunity to invite the energy you may need into your life, so you can take the next step. If you\u2019ve been waiting for a notification from life to tell you when it\u2019s time, well\u2026 here it is. \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

Another option is to hold the simple intention to just be there, let go, surrender to the experience as it unfolds, and trust. That works too.<\/p>\n

The Spirit of Money<\/h2>\n

We\u2019re going to invite the Spirit of Money<\/em> into this call with us. Think of this as the conscious energy behind money\u2019s role in your life. We\u2019ll invite this energy to communicate with us during part of the call, and I will do my best to share these messages as clearly and crisply as I can.<\/p>\n

However, the ideas and exercises we\u2019ll cover on the call are universal, so even if the money area of your life is flowing well, I think you\u2019ll gain a lot by transplanting the key insights into other areas of life too.<\/p>\n

Why then is the money theme even part of the call if our purpose is so open to other kinds of intentions?<\/p>\n

The money theme helps to ground us in connecting the high-level insights and ideas with an aspect of human life that most people can relate to \u2013 we\u2019ve all dealt with money many times before \u2013 thereby making it easier to apply spirit-level insights to human-level experiences. The Spirit of Money readily links with the instrument of money, so we can see how the dots connect between spirit-level wisdom and human-level decisions.<\/p>\n

Money is also an area that many people don\u2019t consider particularly spiritual, which leads them into decisions that often conflict with money\u2019s spiritual purpose. The spiritual purpose of money is primarily to serve your spiritual growth. It\u2019s easier to create and maintain a pleasing, easy-going relationship with money when you learn to respect, honor, and cooperate with its spiritual purpose.<\/p>\n

When you see how richly infused with spirit this aspect of human life truly is, it will be easier for you to bring similar spirit-level insights to your relationships, work, health, etc. So I see good reasons for using the theme of money for this kind of work. I think it will serve as a useful bridge for translating ideas from the world of spirit to the human world.<\/p>\n

This money aspect also gives your mind something to focus on while your own spirit is deeply engaged. Not everyone needs that, but I think it will be a helpful focal point for many people who\u2019d likely benefit from attending the call.<\/p>\n

My Role<\/h2>\n

My role is to help hold the space, facilitate the call, and share the messages that come through. Rachelle will be helping me as well, so she can monitor the text chat and let me know if anything there needs my attention. I won\u2019t be focusing on the chat messages that people share during the call, unless it\u2019s for part of an exercise we\u2019re doing.<\/p>\n

We won\u2019t be doing any Power Point slides. This is a call for the spirit, so we need ample flexibility, and the linearity of slides won\u2019t work here.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been preparing for the call by channeling lots of fresh insights and reflecting upon the ideas. Most of these ideas came through while microdosing and minidosing magic mushrooms (75mg to 300mg dried), and I\u2019ve compiled lots of notes from these sessions. But I don\u2019t see those notes as being as important as the practice of bringing in these types of insights.<\/p>\n

I plan to select the key ideas that I anticipate sharing and summarize them on about a dozen index cards to have on my desk during the call. This is more to relax my mind and to serve as convenient reminders when they\u2019re helpful. However, my high-level intention is to go with the flow of inspiration as it comes through during the call, so I\u2019m ultimately going to share what I feel most guided to share with those who are present. I\u2019ll share the ideas that align with my notes when it feels inspired to do so, and when it takes us in a different direction, I\u2019ll go with wherever the inspiration wants to go. I trust the source of this info because I\u2019ve been working with it a lot lately, and it\u2019s been a real powerhouse of transformation and depth for me.<\/p>\n

To infuse this call with extra spirit energy, I\u2019ll be opening the call a few hours after taking 100mg of mushrooms, which for me is on the lower end of a minidose but more than a microdose. It\u2019s not so much to send me tripping, but it\u2019s enough to help me serve as an open conduit for this kind of work. In case you\u2019re wondering, the idea to host this call was indeed inspired by my past few weeks of exploration in this area.<\/p>\n

So part of my purpose for hosting this call is to open up what\u2019s been an incredible world of new energies that have shifted me a great deal \u2013 by offering it to those who feel called to invite similar uplifting and transformational energies into their lives now.<\/p>\n

Call Details<\/h2>\n

Here are the call details:<\/p>\n

Date:<\/strong> This Saturday \u2013 September 9, 2023<\/p>\n

Time:<\/strong> 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM+ Pacific Time<\/p>\n

Platform:<\/strong> Zoom<\/p>\n

Price:<\/strong> $42<\/p>\n

Recorded:<\/strong> Yes, you\u2019ll get the recording (video and audio) as well.<\/p>\n

I include a + symbol after the closing time because I don\u2019t know exactly when we\u2019ll end. We\u2019ll go for at least 2 hours, and we\u2019ll wrap up with Q&A. My priority is to share whatever insights want to come through for the people on the call and to serve those who show up to the best of my ability. I can\u2019t predict exactly when we\u2019ll finish though. We\u2019ll bring it to a close when I get that \u201cyeah, I think we\u2019re complete now\u201d feeling. This call will begin on human time, but its duration is based on spirit time. \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

After you sign up, you\u2019ll get the link to register for our Saturday Zoom call, and you\u2019ll also get access to the web portal where the call recording will be published. I expect we\u2019ll have the recording published within 24 hours after the live call ends.<\/p>\n

If you need to leave early, that\u2019s totally fine and understandable, so no worries about that. Remember that you\u2019ll get the full recording too, both in video and audio forms, so you\u2019ll be able to watch or listen to anything you might miss.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll take a short break after about an hour, and we\u2019ll edit the break time out of the recording.<\/p>\n

While it\u2019s ideal to join us from the start, it\u2019s okay to join late too if you have other obligations. If you\u2019re going to join late, please take a few deep breaths, hold the intention to connect with spirit, and then connect to the call when you feel reasonably centered. Please do your best not to introduce potentially jarring vibes into the space while we\u2019re already flowing.<\/p>\n

Price ($42)<\/h2>\n

The price to attend the call and get the recordings is $42 USD. For CGC members it\u2019s free since it\u2019s included as part of their annual membership. So you\u2019ll surely see some CGCers on the call.<\/p>\n

Why $42?<\/strong> I didn\u2019t really pick that price myself, not exactly. It popped into my mind while I was pondering how to decide upon a fair contribution for such a spirit-level invitation. I was initially thinking that something around $40 felt about right, but it still felt too arbitrary and not particularly spiritual to me, like it just didn\u2019t fit. I had previously thought about making it free, but that didn\u2019t feel right either. Then the answer of $42 popped into my mind \u2013 okay okay, I admit that it came from the shroom energy while microdosing \u2013 and I chuckled because I immediately saw that it was perfect.<\/p>\n

The number 42 is a callback to the DAI course (as someone who\u2019s done the course may recognize), and it\u2019s been a number sync for me many times before, especially related to creativity. It\u2019s also a reference to The Hitchhiker\u2019s Guide to the Galaxy,<\/em> which has a fun, playful vibe. In The Hitchhiker\u2019s Guide<\/em>, the number 42 is the answer to life, the universe, and everything. How perfect indeed!<\/p>\n

So I really didn\u2019t choose this number for financial reasons. I don\u2019t feel like I personally picked it but rather that it was chosen for us. It was an instant yes when it came through though, so let\u2019s use it.<\/p>\n

Moreover, I\u2019ve been getting lots of syncs for this number ever since I agreed to use it for the price of the call. For instance, Rachelle and I recently rewatched the 1990 movie Ghost<\/em>, and there\u2019s a scene in the movie that\u2019s visually flooded with the number 42 \u2013 when Sam is learning tips from another ghost in the 42nd Street subway station. The walls and pillars are all covered in 42s. It\u2019s super obvious and goes on for a few minutes. I\u2019m still getting more syncs too. I take that as a pretty clear sign that there\u2019s a strong alignment with this call flowing in from the spirit side.<\/p>\n

Perhaps $42 is a weird price from the human perspective, but I believe it serves a purpose \u2013 to remind us that we\u2019re taking a break from the world of human-level frames and assumptions. Moreover, I think that the Spirit of Money that we\u2019re inviting to join us on this call likes having this number above the entry door, as if it\u2019s the call\u2019s address\u2026 like 42 Spirit Lane.<\/em><\/p>\n

There\u2019s another number for this call that\u2019s special to me, which is the date \u2013 9\/9. My grandfather was born on 9\/9\/09. He passed away about two decades ago, and this would be his 114th birthday if he was still around. I\u2019ve been connecting with his energy a little bit lately (among many other energies), and I sense that he loves that we\u2019re having this experience on his human birthday. Perhaps he\u2019ll even help us hold the connection to spirit during the call. I haven\u2019t done much work with ancestral energy, but more of that type of energy has been coming to me lately for some reason. So if it resonates with you, consider respectfully inviting your ancestral spirits to join us on the call as well, and let them decide if they wish to help us hold the space.<\/p>\n

An Inner Journey<\/h2>\n

This will be a very introspective call, but there will also be some interactivity, mainly via the Zoom text chat but also some Q&A at the end. There won\u2019t be any small group breakout rooms, so you won\u2019t need to conversationally interact with anyone.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s totally fine if you want to attend all or part of the call with your webcam switched off, even though you\u2019ll still be able to see those who have their webcams on. So feel free to engage with this call in a more solo manner, or be active in the Zoom text chat (clowny, deep, helpful, social, etc.) in whatever way suits you. I want you to bring the fullness of your spirit into this space too.<\/p>\n

You may wish to do further journaling for integration purposes after the call, reflecting more deeply on whichever aspects are still flowing through your mind. Spirit-level experiences often take time to settle, becoming even more profound, relevant, and meaningful as time passes.<\/p>\n

There is no need to push yourself in any way. I invite you to let the energy and the insights of the call come to you. Just be open to receiving.<\/p>\n

Vibe of the Call<\/h2>\n

In terms of vibe, I aim to bring a gentle, caring, and compassionate energy to this call, especially at the outset. I assure you that it won\u2019t be judgmental or pushy. Many people have already experienced negative energy or challenges in their relationship with money, so for this call and this invitation, let\u2019s agree not to dive into those aspects. We truly don\u2019t need to do that.<\/p>\n

If you attend the call, I\u2019d rather you show up with energies and intentions like curiosity, hope, wonder, openness, and surrender instead of some form of desperation to change.<\/p>\n

My intention is for this call to be positive, uplifting, and welcoming, regardless of where your relationship with money is right now. I also want it to be very deep. But the most difficult intention to accept (possibly for both of us) is that I invite the world of spirit to be intensely truthful with us. That includes showing us what we\u2019re ready enough to see now, even if may temporarily stun us to hear it. Spiritual truths don\u2019t always land softly. Inner work can be challenging.<\/p>\n

While it\u2019s not directly part of my intentionality, I\u2019d say it\u2019s reasonable to expect there may be some people going through some emotional processing or releasing on this call. So it\u2019s very important that we do our best to hold the space where this kind of transformation can occur with caring support. If you need to take a break, step away for a bit, or switch off your webcam for a while (or the entire time), please feel free to do whatever feels right to you.<\/p>\n

Some people may choose to be on the call with the primary intention of helping to hold the space where we invite transformation to occur for those who need it most (and are ready for it). I\u2019ve sometimes paid to attend circles where my main intention was to support other people\u2019s growth rather than seeking my own gains. On a spirit level, I find that a very worthwhile investment. It seems impossible not to experience some meaningful personal uplift with that kind of intentionality anyway.<\/p>\n

Also know that Rachelle and I will do our best to make this a container of love in which you can do the inner work that you feel ready to do at the spirit level, whether or not you think it relates to money. If tears come, let them come. Sometimes I get pretty emo just thinking about this call. It won\u2019t necessarily be easy for me either, and I\u2019ve made peace with that.<\/p>\n

My words here are a pointer to the energy of the call, like Bruce Lee\u2019s analogy of the finger pointing to the Moon. The call itself is meant to serve as a portal into that energy space. To decide if you want to attend, I suggest you tune into the energy of the call that my words are pointing too, and make your decision based on what you sense internally. I think most people will get a pretty clear signal if they\u2019re meant to be there, once they look within, take a peek at that energy, and see if they vibe with it.<\/p>\n

Preparing Yourself for the Call<\/h2>\n

These are my recommendations for preparing for the call, so you can help us create and hold the space that aligns with our purpose.<\/p>\n

Food:<\/strong> I recommend that if you eat before the call, favor plant foods as much as you can. Ideally for any meals that happen within 8 hours before the call, stick with fully plant-based. This advice applies if you eat or drink anything during the call as well. Also favor whole, unprocessed foods. The reason is that consuming animal foods or processed foods will root your energy more strongly to the physical world. Plant foods will lighten your energy, making you more receptive to a broader range of frequencies. In short, it\u2019s good to be more sensitive and vibrationally open for this one.<\/p>\n

Caffeine:<\/strong> If you don\u2019t normally consume caffeine, stay caffeine-free during the day of the call. If you do normally have caffeine, it\u2019s actually best if you still have some that day since your energy is accustomed to it. But go a bit lighter than usual for whatever you have in the 8 hours before the call or during the call. For instance, if you typically have a cup of coffee, consider reducing it to 1\/2 or 2\/3 cup for the day of the call, or have some tea instead. The reason for this is that caffeine amplifies a narrow band of frequencies, mostly in the mental range, thus making them overly prominent relative to other frequencies that may come through during the call. Think of it like watching a movie while a bright spotlight over-saturates part of the screen, making the rest of the screen seem darker by comparison. The purpose of reducing the caffeine a little is to minimize such distortions in your perceptions.<\/p>\n

Intentions:<\/strong> Review the \u201cYour Intentions\u201d section above, and set your intentions for the call before joining. Doing this shortly after joining is okay too.<\/p>\n

Attire:<\/strong> Wear whatever makes you feel comfortable, especially if it has a spiritual slant to it. It\u2019s not about how you look. It\u2019s about how you feel in what you\u2019re wearing. You may also choose to wear an item that raises your vibe, like a shirt that you associate with a beautiful memory. You don\u2019t have to go full-on Burning Man, but you can go there if you resonate with some avatar decoration. Dress to feel good, not to try to impress anyone. Remember that you can keep your webcam switched off if you prefer.<\/p>\n

Microdosing:<\/strong> If you\u2019re already into microdosing or minidosing psychedelics, I invite you to consider joining me in taking a modest amount to help me in holding this space, timing it so you\u2019re likely to be in the best range of your experience during the time of our call. For me that\u2019s about 3 hours after taking a dose, so I\u2019m past the peak and on the gentle back slope, which is where I tend to experience the best connection, the clearest flow of insights, the lightest and most open vibes, and the strongest level of trust. There\u2019s no need to let me or anyone else know if you\u2019re doing this, but you can tell me privately if it feels good to you. I\u2019ll keep it between us.<\/p>\n

Why the Short Notice?<\/h2>\n

I know this is relatively short notice. I\u2019m inviting you to join this call close in time to when it happens. This is intentional. It\u2019s not exactly my own intention though, but I\u2019ve been guided to do it like this, and I received an explanation as to why, which I\u2019m happy to share with you.<\/p>\n

The immediacy of the call means that there\u2019s only be a short gap of time between when people decide to join and when we host the call. Consider why that matters from a spirit-level perspective.<\/p>\n

If you feel aligned with the call after reading this post, and you decide to sign up for it, it\u2019s very likely that you\u2019ll still feel good about that decision on Saturday when the call is starting. You\u2019ll still be in strong resonance with your choice. This resonance matters, especially on a collective level, as everyone on the call flows into the real experience very shortly after deciding to attend.<\/p>\n

If I had given more advance notice, those who resonated with the potential experience when they first learned about it would have more time to fall out of resonance by the actual call time. So would I. We\u2019d all have do to a bit more work to get back in sync with our earlier decisions. This is similar to agreeing to attend a social event when you feel aligned with it and then noticing that you no longer feel like going when it actually comes up some days or weeks later. We want to minimize the chance of that happening here.<\/p>\n

Another factor to consider is the alignment and trust on a spiritual level. Time works differently at the spirit-level and doesn\u2019t have the same requirements or priorities as human-level time. On some level, the people who are meant to be on this call will have already had it spiritually reserved for them ahead of this specific invitation. They\u2019ll either have the time available already\u2026 or they\u2019ll feel the motivation to free up the time to attend\u2026 or it will actually be better for them to watch the recorded version and skip the live call if they\u2019re truly busy during that time. So in this case I trust that if someone has a conflict and doesn\u2019t have the option to attend live, or if it wouldn\u2019t feel right to them to prioritize attending, and they wouldn\u2019t feel satisfied with the recording only, then it\u2019s for the best because this means they have other spiritual priorities to work on.<\/p>\n

I also expect that some people will already recognize that they\u2019re meant to be on this call because on a spirit level, they either felt a desire for something like this intuitively \u2013 and this is their manifestation of that intention \u2013 or perhaps something in their reality shifted to make this call align with their plans. For instance, they might have had something else initially planned during the call time, but that item recently got canceled or postponed. At the spirit level, their agenda was cleared to allow them to partake in this experience.<\/p>\n

I met my wife Rachelle for the first time at a workshop I conducted nearly 14 years ago. Initially she wasn\u2019t able to attend even though she wanted to because she had a prior commitment to perform in a play that overlapped the days of the workshop. But a spirit-level renegotiation soon took place behind the scenes, her play was postponed (with her making such a request on the human level), and she was able to quickly arrange her flight and accommodations and fly down from Canada to be there in person. We\u2019ll probably delve deeper into these spirit-level renegotiations during the call, including how to initiate them.<\/p>\n

Another possibility is that some people may have already seen (or are about to see) synchronicities related to this call, such as the number 42 popping up\u2026 or some unusual reference related to the name of the call or to me or my work.<\/p>\n

If I were you, I\u2019d trust these signals, especially if they align with your intuition, even if your mental side isn\u2019t so sure. I\u2019ve done my best to trust when similar syncs happened to me, and they\u2019ve led to some truly beautiful experiences. I really do perceive that they represent spirit-level guidance. There\u2019s a lot going on behind the scenes, and I want to pull back the drapes and show you what\u2019s backstage.<\/p>\n

Lately I\u2019ve been flooded with syncs related to hosting this call, so it\u2019s fair to say that I\u2019ve been guided to play my part in this as well. A few weeks ago, I honestly had no idea that I\u2019d be doing this, at least not on a human level of awareness. The inspired idea to host this call came on short notice for me too. But I knew it was important to say yes to it and to consciously consent to doing my part.<\/p>\n

Come Join Us!<\/h2>\n

Just fill out and submit the sign-up form<\/a>, and you\u2019ll get what you need to access the call.<\/p>\n

And yes, in case you\u2019re wondering, I wrote this post on a microdosing day (just 75mg today). If this speaks to you, I think it\u2019s fair to say that the call will have many resonant and meaningful insights and lessons with you.<\/p>\n

Have I gone off the deep end? Yes, and it\u2019s quite different from the shallow end.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a little difficult for me to share this, but during a physically mild but spiritually deep mushroom experience I had last weekend, I received the guidance that it was time for me to stop hiding and\/or apologizing for my spiritual side. I was advised to start speaking more fully and shamelessly at the level of spirit, and avoid watering it down or peppering it with palatable reframes for those who might not resonate with it. Admittedly that stung a bit, but it landed powerfully. Hosting this call is one step in the direction of heeding that advice. So this is a pretty big deal to me.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m really looking forward to this, both on a human level and a spirit level. I sense it\u2019s going to be an incredible experience for those who attend. If you feel called to be there, please sign up for The Spirit of Money<\/strong><\/a>, and I\u2019ll see you on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Namaste! \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
