    <title>Awaken the Authentic You</title>
    <description>“A podcast about spiritual sh*t.”

The journey to awakening your authentic self isn’t easy—it’s messy, challenging, and deeply personal. But here’s the good news: there’s no one-size-fits-all way to express your spiritual self, develop your natural psychic talents, or grow into your unique path.

That’s where we come in. Through sharing our experiences, insights, and the occasional spiritual mishap, our goal is to help you feel informed, safe, and confident as you navigate your own awakening. Whether you’re exploring metaphysics, uncovering your gifts, or just figuring it all out, we’re here to support you with honesty and heart (and maybe make you laugh along the way).

Awakening the authentic you might not be easy, but it’s worth it. And we’re here to show you how—because we’re a podcast about spiritual shit.</description>

      <title>What is a black moon?</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Every New Moon brings the energy for fresh starts and setting goals, but the upcoming New Moon in Capricorn has a little something special, because it’s the 2nd New Moon in the month of December.  Now, when we have 2 New Moons in a calendar month, it’s called a Black Moon.  But did you know that there are several different astrological meanings to the term? 
In today’s episode of Moonlight Chronicles, I’m going to go through the different meanings behind the “Black Moon”, talk about which one refers specifically to the upcoming Capricorn New Moon, and I’ll give you some ideas on how the energy of this special lunar event might be used to set some very powerful goals.

      <title>Rundown on the elements</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>Episode 1: Earth</strong></p><p><strong>Host:</strong><br />Earth is the element of stability and grounding. It represents the physical realm—our home, bodies, and resources. When we think of Earth, we think of the North, a place of stillness and stability. It connects deeply with the <strong>Root Chakra</strong>, the energy center associated with security and survival.</p><p> </p><p>Earth energy is slow, steady, and supportive. In a healing circle, it provides balance and a solid foundation for all intentions. It rules over the bones, legs, and feet—those parts of us that hold us up and keep us connected to the ground.</p><p><strong>[Pause for Reflection]</strong><br />Take a moment. When was the last time you felt truly grounded? Maybe it was standing barefoot on grass or holding a smooth stone in your hand. These small moments are a direct connection to Earth energy.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Host:</strong><br />Tools like stones, bones, and pendulums are often used for divination in Earth-centered practices. If you’re looking for a ritual to connect with Earth, create a small altar with soil, crystals, or a plant. Meditate on stability and let Earth guide you to your roots.</p><p> </p><p><strong>2: Air</strong></p><p><strong>Host:</strong><br />Air is the element of intellect, communication, and freedom. It’s associated with the East, where the sun rises—a fitting symbol for new ideas and inspiration. Air governs the <strong>Throat Chakra</strong>, our center for expression and truth.</p><p> </p><p>When Air enters a healing circle, it brings clarity and vision as it carries the seeds of wisdom.It touches the lungs and voice, those parts of us that engage with the external world. Think of Air as a bridge between thought and action.</p><p><strong>[Practical Tip]</strong><br />One way to connect with Air is through breathing exercises. Try deep inhalations paired with affirmations like, "I speak my truth freely." You can also work with feathers or incense to honor this element.  I like to stand outside (especially when I am dealing with anxiety or worry), close my eyes and feel the air / wind blow away that stress or worry.  Focus on the parts of the body it is touching, how it feels on your skin.  Listen to the messages that come with the wind / air. </p><p><strong>Host:</strong><br />Let Air guide your thoughts and inspire creative solutions to challenges in your life. It’s all about clarity and movement.</p><p> </p><p><strong>3: Fire</strong></p><p><strong>Host:</strong><br />Fire burns in the South, symbolizing passion, courage, and transformation. It’s the essence of change, consuming the old to make way for the new. Connected to the <strong>Solar Plexus Chakra</strong>, Fire governs our inner power and will.</p><p> </p><p>In a healing circle, Fire offers courage and energy to act. It protects, it banishes, it fuels, it warms those cold places and embeds in us the messages we need to carry.  It resonates with the blood and digestive system—the literal and figurative flames within us.</p><p>When combined with air, it can spark those dormant embers within us. </p><p><strong>[Practical Tip]</strong><br />Work with candles for personal empowerment. Choose colors that resonate with your intention—red for passion, yellow for confidence, or orange for creativity. Gazing into a flame can also inspire insight and clarity. </p><p> </p><p><strong>4: Water</strong></p><p><strong>Host:</strong><br />Flowing in the West is Water, the element of emotions and intuition. It’s a symbol of life and purification, ever-moving and adaptable. Water resonates with the <strong>Sacral Chakra</strong>, which governs our creativity and emotional flow.</p><p> </p><p>Water touches our tears, reproductive system, and the cycles of life. In a healing circle, it cleanses emotional wounds and restores balance.  It can refresh, nourish, and also wash away the corrosion of the past.</p><p><strong>Host:</strong><br />Moon water rituals are a powerful way to work with this element. Charge a bowl of water under the full moon, then use it to cleanse your hands, tools, or space. Let Water guide your emotional journey with its soothing and transformative power.</p><p> </p><p><strong>5: Spirit (Ether)</strong></p><p><strong>Host:</strong><br />Finally, we come to Spirit, the fifth element. Spirit ties all the others together, representing the divine connection and universal energy. It’s associated with all directions and resonates with the <strong>Crown Chakra</strong>, our link to higher consciousness.</p><p> </p><p>In healing circles, Spirit harmonizes energies, creating a sense of unity and wholeness. It transcends the physical, touching the nervous system and the aura.</p><p><strong>[Reflection]</strong><br />Spirit reminds us that magic and connection aren’t just practices—they’re experiences. Work with tools like meditation or visualization to deepen your connection with this universal force.</p>

      <title>Preparing for your Journey</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>So, the one thing I am going to really hone in and talk about today is the Book of Shadows or the witch’s journal.</p><p>What do you put in it?</p><p> </p><ul><li>Name your book, make it personal, bond with the pages. </li><li>What do we write in it? </li><li>Priorities, </li><li>to make lists, </li><li>Meals, </li><li>exercise routines, </li><li>finances, </li><li>appointments, </li><li>cleaning schedules, </li><li>work schedules, </li><li>idea dumps, </li><li>maybe an itinerary, </li><li>goals, </li><li>tarot spreads,</li><li>meditation downloads, </li><li>dreams, </li><li>spells, </li><li>things you study,</li><li>Plants, monology etc. </li><li>information you learn, anything you want actually.</li></ul><p>How to create a journal that suits your needs. Make it authentic and unique.</p><ul><li>Have fun with it.</li></ul><p>Get creative with it.</p><ul><li>Junk journal, </li><li>Scrap book, </li><li>create designs, </li><li>draw, </li><li>dig deep within your creative ability, </li><li>and most importantly, </li><li>Be patient with yourself and with this process. </li><li>Follow your intuition about it, change things up when you feel the unction to. </li><li>Just flow with it. </li><li>Maybe it’s just creating a calendar and getting creative that way. </li><li>It is your journal, </li><li>Your space, </li><li>Your creativity in its rawest form. </li></ul><p>     What is great is you can look back in reflection, or maybe you want to repeat a spell or whatever, anywho, you will see your transformation come to life on the pages. It’s awesome. Crazy shit right there!!!</p><p> </p><p>So now let’s go into our first journal segment. This is how you are going to open up your journal.</p><p>Inside cover, write what this book means to you, what you want from this, your motto so to speak of what this journal is going to provide, something important about you. Mine is the rules of my craft, the woman I want to be and a manifesto for what this year is going to look like for me. I start a new journal every Samhain.</p><p> </p><p>Go into first journal prompt. </p><p>At the top of the page in a corner, write the date, moon phase, and mood you are feeling in that moment. </p><p>Then I write down things that I track myself by doing that I want to improve on. Mine is:</p><p>     Sleep health</p><p>     Mood</p><p>     Supplements</p><p>     Yoga</p><p>     Food</p><p>     It may vary a little each day depending on what my priorities are.</p><p>Then Monday is set to plan the week,</p><p>     Weekly tarot draw</p><p>     Bills, I need to pay.</p><p>     Appointments</p><p>     Then a space for ideas drops.</p><p> </p><p>Tuesday goes into meals, projects, and goals.</p><p>Wednesday is a witchy Wednesday,</p><p>Thursday is my reflection day. </p><p>     So, once you have your journal set up, you are organized with your daily tasks, you have left space on each day for journal prompts, ideas, and gratitude. Now, what do we put in for our first journal prompt. Well, if you were going through my program, which we were going to scratch the surface on some of these, you are going to write the answers to the following questions:</p><ul><li>Home in and set your intentions on what you want from this journey. What do you want to break free from? What is your dream journey? What are some of your priorities that you are looking at right now? </li></ul><p>How committed are you to working through this? </p><ul><li>What is one thing you need to get the fuck out of your life and your energy field right now?</li><li>Start your journal / book of shadows.</li><li>How to set your intentions and why:</li><li>What is it that you want from this process?</li><li>What does an ideal life look like to you?</li><li>What are some of the dreams you have?</li><li>What is something that you are grateful for in your life right now? </li><li>Why do you want this right now and how badly do you want it? </li><li>How is this thing you are healing from holding you back right now?</li><li>What is it specifically that you want to heal?</li><li>Using Tarot to help guide and map out the road for you.</li></ul><p>     I personally have JUST started doing Monday readings for the week. With my schedule change at work, this is the start of my week off. So, I have the next 4 days to pull my shit together for the following week. </p><p>     Can I just mention that letting my creativity flow naturally and chaotically free…. It is helping me stay more focused and attentive in other areas that I am working on right now. It’s insane… But man, the universe is AMAZING and such loving wisdom in how she provides it, if you are willing to lay down your pride and accept the fact that “weird shit is for real. </p><p> </p><p>Next episode in this series is going to be about healing with the elements.</p><ul><li>What do each of the elements offer us on your journey?</li><li>How do we benefit from those things?</li><li>How to create a healing circle with what the elements mean to you?</li><li>Guided meditation at the end of the show. </li></ul><p> </p><p> Join us on our Awaken the Authentic You Facebook page.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Have a great week everyone.

You’re nervous before you get to that date, but there is prepping that needs to be done, you finally own up to the fact it needs to be done, you go through the surgery, recovery is usually a bitch, and then once everything is all said and done, you feel 100 times better than before the surgery, and you don’t have to carry the pain from whatever the issue was in the first place.  You shed that shit off, learn your lesson, and you become more loyal to that part of yourself, you celebrate the wins, you cycle through and do some more healing and it becomes more and more easier as you go, because you begin to know yourself a little better each time because all those unseen truths and gifts of yours start to rise to the surface. </p><p>     So, let’s talk about the rundown of this series coming up.</p><p>     We talked about making the conscious decision that you want this for yourself and those around you.

      <title>Manifest Your Best Life: My Proof that New Moon Goals and Full Moon Releases Work</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Do you ever wonder why it takes you 3-4 or maybe even seven tries before you reach a goal, no matter how much willpower you have or planning that you do? Have you ever stopped to consider that there may be outside influences, even cosmic ones, that are impacting your ability to succeed? </p><p>Well, what if I told you that the phase of the moon on any given day might just hold the key to unlocking your manifesting potential and understanding the different emotions and energies that you feel throughout the month? </p><p>Pretty awesome, huh? </p><p>Hi, I'm certified Moonologer and professional tarot reader, Darcy Britt, and I want to welcome you to another episode of the Awakened the Authentic You podcast. More specifically, this is a little side project that I like to do called Moonlight Chronicles. </p><p>Today, we are going to talk a little bit about why I follow the moon and why I truly believe that understanding where the moon is on any given day, really can hold the key to so many of the things that we want in life (like loving and healthy relationships, amazing jobs, supportive friends, and even living a healthier lifestyle). </p><p>Once you start getting more in tune with the Moon and you understand the different ebbs and flows of energies when it's paired usually with the Zodiac sign or even the house on your chart that's a little bit deeper, you really start to understand that setting your goals at certain phases of the moon. Is almost a a better recipe for success than you ever could have imagined. </p>

      <itunes:summary>Today, we’re diving right into the upcoming Taurus Full Moon energy. Not only is it a Full Moon, it’s also a Partial Lunar Eclipse, which intensifies the emotional energy, and it’s got us feeling a bit stubborn about change and focused on what really makes us feel secure in life. 
There’s a cosmic tug-of-war at play where between what others owe you, or what you feel you are owed which might lead to intense feelings about your financial security, stability, and your self-worth. 
So whether you’re feeling a need to break free from drama, build up your bank account, or just stop being so damn stubborn, this Full Moon’s got something for you.

      <title>Meditation with the Elements Bonus</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Meditation with the Elements may be different each time I do this, but I just go by intuition.  This is usually how I start each energy healing session that I do.  The Elements are ever so graceful to bring to us exactly what we need to see about ourselves.  It is so very healing.  I would love to know your experience after doing this meditation.  Feel free to share on the Facebook page if you like. If it's a bit more personal, but you still want to share, feel free to message us on Messenger as well.  </p><p>Get on some comfy clothes, grab some water and get comfy.  Might want to grab a notebook to take some notes afterwards.  I usually do this meditation, for myself, right before bed so I can just completely let go.  Please do not listen to this while driving or operating machinery.  </p><p> </p><p>Ok....
