Am I REALLY That Stubborn? Spoiler Alert: Yes, I Am


 

Am I REALLY That Stubborn? YOU Tell Me.

So, let’s do a little self-inventory, shall we? I’ve had my awakening, blah blah blah—cue the life-altering epiphanies and spiritual downloads. But here’s where it gets hilarious (or tragic, depending on how you look at it).

I’m on the phone with my best friend, unloading all of this spiritual madness, expecting her to think I’ve officially lost my damn mind. But instead? She starts nodding along, throwing in her own experiences like we’ve been on the same journey this whole time. I’m standing there, flabbergasted, screaming internally, WTF?! Since when did she know all this? Am I that self-absorbed? That nonsocial—even with my closest people—that I didn’t even realize we’ve been speaking the same damn language this whole time? (Mental note: dust off that shadow work later.)

Then comes 2022. I’m at her house after dropping my daughter off at her dad’s for the summer. Enter: a guy I’ve ‘known’ for as long as I’ve known her AND my daughter’s dad. But suddenly, we’re deep-diving into these insane spiritual revelations, and my mind is officially blown. WHERE was this energy nearly a decade ago?! Did I just have my head so far up my own ass that I never noticed?

Oh, but it gets better. End of 2024, I’m on the phone with my mom, and she casually reminds me of the person I took her to see for a stop-smoking appointment—a practitioner who does energy work. Wait. What?

So I ask, “Mom, why didn’t you TELL me this before?!”

And she just sighs, full mom-mode activated, “Christina, I DID. You wouldn’t listen.”

FML.

Pardon me while I go do some severe shadow work… and maybe reassess my entire existence.

Moral of the story? The Universe will keep slapping you with the same lesson until you finally pull your head out of your ass and pay attention. My North Node in Gemini literally screams at me to be more social, to engage with my community, to OPEN my damn eyes to the connections right in front of me.

Fine, Universe. I hear you.

LMAO… ugh.

Trumpets, Echoes, and the Uncle Who Knew Too Much

Image
  People have this uncanny way of showing up in your life and, without you even realizing it at the time, saying exactly what your soul needs to hear. Not your mind, not your ego—your soul. The kind of words that slip past logic, settle into your bones, and reverberate through time like some cosmic whisper that refuses to be ignored. Back in 2013, I was freshly separated from my daughter’s dad, living in another town, trying to navigate life while keeping my head above emotional water. My daughter was with her dad for the weekend, and I, as usual, was hanging out with my uncle. He rarely came to my place, but on this day, he did. We were standing out on my balcony, overlooking the complex pool, probably shooting the shit about life or whatever random nonsense was floating through the air. And then, out of nowhere, he hit me with it—one sentence that has echoed through my mind ever since: " You know, I hope that when those trumpets ring, you're on the right side of them. ...

Mischief, Menehune, and a Midnight Standoff in Hawaii

Image
  Most people think of Hawaii as a paradise—sun-drenched beaches, lush jungles, mai tais at sunset. What they don’t know is that Hawaii is absolutely riddled with spirit activity. From ancient entities to playful menehune (Hawaii’s own version of mischievous fae), the islands are basically a supernatural free-for-all. So, this story kicks off with one of my dad’s roommates, who—like all of his roommates—knows exactly what I do for a living when it comes to spirits.  It’s 2 AM— you know, the witching hour when the veil is thinner than a gas station napkin —and he’s fast asleep when something starts gently pulling the covers over his head. Most people would panic, right? Nope. Not this guy. Instead of screaming like a normal person, he grabs onto whatever the hell it is through the blankets and holds on tight. And then— POOF. Gone. Unbothered, he rolls over and goes back to sleep. But whatever it was? Not done yet. Ten - twenty minutes later, he feels something plop...

The Power of Intuitive Healing: A Personal Grid Experiment

Image
  Healing is a deeply personal journey, and when we allow ourselves to trust our intuition, the results can be profound. Recently, I set up a personal healing grid using carefully chosen crystals, a violet chime candle, and a focused intention to receive energetic realignment while engaging in other tasks. The experience reinforced the incredible impact of listening to inner guidance and allowing energy work to unfold naturally. Setting Up the Grid Using a combination of crystals placed strategically along my energy field, I aimed to balance and enhance the natural flow of energy within my chakras. Without actively directing my own energy, I allowed the stones to do their work, testing how effectively they could shift my vibration on their own. Notable Reactions & Shifts Immediate Sensations : Within minutes, I could feel my chakras "doing something," indicating an energetic shift in progress. My palms became hot, and my dominant healing hand was especially active. Mental...
