The Mythic Imagination of Amy Filbin

We're thrilled to introduce you to this week's guest, Amy Filbin — a multidisciplinary practitioner who artfully and skillfully synthesizes her academic, psychological and spiritual knowledge to help clients across the world. In this episode, Amy traverses tarot, astrology, hypnotherapy and beyond to illuminate the obstacles that keep people stuck in life.

Amy's story is profound. She not only enlightens us about the archetypal "Fool's Journey" in tarot, but she opens up about her own Fool's Journey — her life story — which is both singular and universal all at once. Her story is her own, yet you can't help but find yourself within it. In true Gemini fashion, Amy has moved through many of life's contradictions and dichotomies to become personally and professionally resilient. From addiction to recovery, from love to loss, from Greece to Alaska...her trials and triumphs are a testament to the transformative potential of embracing the path of self-discovery.

You'll hit play to behold her mythic imagination. But it's her breathtaking humanness that will resonate long after the episode concludes.

Awakenings & Spiritual Genetics: Part 1

Is spirituality something people are predisposed to experiencing? Do your genetics make a difference? What external forces are at play that might cause someone to become more spiritual?

Spiritual awakenings are a common topic in the spiritual community, but not often something that we dissect and explore in-depth. This is the first installment of our three-part series (well...we think it'll be three parts) where we'll explore how and why spiritual awakenings occur.

In this first episode, we share stories about our own spiritual awakenings and discuss common ways people seem to experience them. We preview some larger topics that we'll further dive into for parts two and three in this series, and we also invite listeners to write in with their own spiritual awakening stories so we can share them in a future episode as part of this series!

P.S. Remember Michelle Brock, our past life expert? Her new book is officially out! Grab your copy here.

A Cubby Hole for Life's Clutter with Erik Quigley

What if spirituality is just a place to stash life's chaos? A container to help you find peace with all your clutter? In this modern world, spirituality can be so complex to the point that it's off-putting for many people. Life is messy regardless... so shouldn't spirituality help you tidy up your soul?

Erik Quigley joins us to offer a completely different perspective on spiritual living. Unlike most of our guests, Erik is not a professional spiritual practitioner. His point of view is refreshing for this podcast — someone who identifies as spiritual but doesn't make a career revolving around it. Erik runs his own successful creative agency, Uncommon Crowd. After meeting Clairannoyance co-host Ryan on TikTok, the two decided to collaborate and recently launched a business together: BizmosCEO. Like most people, Erik wants to live a fulfilling life. His casual approach to spirituality helps him achieve that goal.

February 2024 Astrology Forecast: Play the Infinite Game

***NOTE: We had some audio issues at first so you'll hear a funny break around 15:25. This took a while for us to fix, so it derailed our recording a while and we were short on time. We had to move through the astrology forecast this month a little faster than we originally planned. It's still an excellent episode though, obviously. Enjoy the chaos!

February is a short month, and this is a short forecast, but there is a surprising amount of astrological energy playing out! We do our best to condense these themes down into bite-sized pieces for you to make this month as fruitful as possible.

Major astrology topics we cover in this episode include: the New Moon in Aquarius, the Full Moon in Virgo, the 5 planets changing signs, what it means to have an abundance of energy in Aquarius, how Pluto is getting awakened this month, and the significance of the conjunction between Chiron and the North Node in Aries.

We're relating this month's energy to the concept of "repair" - which isn't about fixing something that's broken, but about getting on the right track. In order to achieve repair, we suggest learning how to play "The Infinite Game."

Resources discussed in this episode:

We have no rules and no episode notes in advance, just a free-flowing exchange of thoughts and emotions. It's an exploration of the outer banks of consciousness where untamed treasures are hidden away. We believe one sudden insight can hold immense value, far beyond most meticulously planned discussions. Each session is a unique encounter with chance as we defy routine and enjoy a spontaneous dance with spirituality. We aim to keep these episodes as evergreen as possible, so you can find your way here whenever you need to. And hopefully, you'll encounter pieces of yourself every time you join us.

Psychic Attacks & Spiritual Assaults: A Case Study

*TRIGGER WARNING -- This episode discusses themes of sexual assault.

*PLEASE NOTE -- The videos we're referencing in this podcast have been removed from TikTok. If you search "Keisha and Finnikin" on TikTok you'll find some short clips, but mostly you'll see videos from other people commenting on this whole situation. The two people involved are @keishathemystic and @st.finnikin

This episode is a case study in the ways that spirituality can lead to dangerous levels of spiritual psychosis. We're breaking down an intense situation that occurred in the TikTok spiritual community recently regarding two creators who we believe are both problematic. This is a difficult episode to summarize for the show notes, so we simply recommend you listen to the episode. The implications for what has occurred between Keisha and Finnikin are terrifying and damaging for the entire spiritual community.

Be discerning. Protect yourself in all ways, always.

Love you!

In today's episode, we're traversing a wide range of topics, so get cozy and enjoy this hilarious and insightful ride with us! You'll learn about the complex field of vibrational astrology, discover how Lilith and Chiron show up in your birth chart, and explore various dynamics about relationship astrology and how the stars can align for compatibility.

The Serendipity Sessions: Warrior in a Garden

"It's better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war." — Miyamoto Musashi

We're back for another Serendipity Session! Megan and Ryan catch up over a mishmash of topics. After a quick catch up (it had been a while since we recorded together!) we dive into the controversy that's resulted in pop culture about the war between Israel and Palestine, which has had major ramifications that cannot be ignored. (#FreePalestine — NO that does not mean we are antisemitic.) Paying attention to current events and what's happening around the world IS a spiritual practice. To purposefully disconnect from this is to be pompous about your privilege. If you're not paying attention, then you are flexing spiritual bypassing, and that's not a flex to brag about.

We also discuss the importance of media literacy, and the general lack of critical analysis so many people are proudly displaying right now. We chat about the perverse and persistent need to overreact and our over reliance on the internet and technology as a means to showcase our overreactions. We also have a though-provoking discussion about the role that nihilism is playing in our modern society right now, which we may turn into a full length episode soon as well.

Niche Manifestations with Deva Holliday

Manifestation is a hot topic in the spiritual space. The practice can be beautiful, but it can also highlight many of the overarching issues that plague the spiritual community including racism, classism, privilege, and spiritual bypassing. If manifestation has been difficult for you to align with, or if you're interested in shaking up your current manifestation routine, you'll want to tune into this episode from start to finish.

Join us as we chat with Deva Holliday, a Los Angeles based actress and comedian shining a whole new light on the practice of manifesting. Deva is the mastermind behind Niche Manifestations, which has become a viral TikTok sensation, even catching the attention of major news outlets like Cosmopolitan Magazine and Good Day LA. We dive into Deva's signature manifestation style, which highlights the importance of leveraging humor while walking a spiritual path. We also zoom out to explore the concept of manifesting overall — what it is, why it works, how it can be problematic, and how you can use it as a positive and productive part of your spiritual practice.

In this episode, you'll hear about Deva's storied background, from her cult commune upbringing, to decolonizing and reconditioning the religious and social imprints she received as a child, to harnessing the power of gratefulness, to her current thriving life in Los Angeles, and more.

About Deva Holliday:
Deva Holliday is an actress/comedian based out of Los Angeles. Her Niche Manifestations TikTok account is a passion project that she runs solo, from the photographs used to the editing to the writing. In a collaboration with Briana Wolf, Deva (as Niche Manifestations) released two of her manifestations as songs streamable on every platform.

The Healing Art of Sound with Arlyn Ruddy

Sound is a fundamental and all-encompassing element in our lives. It holds a powerful capacity to forge profound connections with our inner selves, with others, and with the very essence of life itself. Sound attunes us to our humanity and provides a gateway to spiritual well-being. The therapeutic potential of sound is vast, offering relief to those grappling with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, PTSD, insomnia, and a spectrum of physical and emotional ailments. From deepening relaxation and enhancing visualization to fostering mental focus, creativity, and spiritual growth, sound is a force of healing and transformation. It's more than music; it's a vibrational foundation echoing through every aspect of our existence.

In this episode we speak with special guest Arlyn Ruddy, a Charleston-based rapper, Initiated Sound Therapist, and the creatrix of Awaken Spanda (to name a just a few of her many well-trained roles). Arlyn was originally invited to speak with us about sound baths, but after dipping our toes in the water, the conversation evolved into a broader exploration of sound as a healing art. Arlyn opens up about her personal story and reveals how sound became a pivotal element in her healing arsenal. We talk about everything from Arlyn's music and sound healing techniques, to the emotions that music can stir, to sound as a spiritual catalyst, to the commercialization and misuses of sound, its universal nature, and beyond. Tune in and discover how vibration is a language of healing, creativity, and profound connection.

"At the root of all power and motion, there is music and rhythm, the play of patterned frequencies against the matrix of time. We know that every particle in the physical universe takes its characteristics from the pitch and pattern and overtones of its particular frequencies, it's singing. Before we make music, music makes us." - Joachim-Ernst Berendt

About Arlyn Ruddy:
With a journey spanning over two decades in the holistic wellness arena, Arlyn Ruddy is a multifaceted and multi-dimensional creatrix: a rapper, musician, initiated sound therapist and trainer, licensed neuromuscular therapist, body/energy worker and more. She’s worked alongside preventative doctors and professionals in the holistic field of medicine around the country. Through her innovative techniques, Arlyn unlocks the soul’s unique vibrational signature, connecting people to their highest form of consciousness through sound and breathwork. Arlyn’s signatures include Sound Ceremonies, S.E. Breathwork immersions, and Gong Therapy sessions. These transformative experiences are designed to restore optimal human potential and bring unconscious parts of the energy body into conscious awareness for meaningful action in waking life. She integrates her prowess for sound with various healing modalities to support emotional, psychological, and spiritual unity. As an educator, Arlyn’s Integral Sound Training courses, designed through divine guidance and scientific study, empower others to tune into their calling with sound and frequency. Her studies in martial and internal arts, along with her current teacher training in White Tiger Qigong, further enrich her approach. Arlyn Ruddy's life and work are a symphony of healing, consciousness, and empowerment, echoing her belief that integration and healing are not just practices but a way of living – a path to liberation and ultimate wellness.

Let's Riff About Reiki

Reiki is one of the most accessible forms of energy healing available right now, which makes it all the more important to understand what it is and how it should be practiced. With the sea of scammers intruding all corners of the spiritual space, reiki is one of the more common ways that charlatans can take advantage of vulnerable people. Luckily, we have one of the best in the biz as a host for Clairannoyance!

Megan has been practicing and teaching reiki for a decade, certifying countless people over the years - including Ryan! - to become proficient in this healing modality. If you've been listening to Clairannoyance for a while, you know Megan will give a no-BS perspective of this topic. We cover the basics including the history of reiki and its foundational elements, plus we dive into plenty of more advanced and nuanced subjects as well. You'll leave the episode feeling like you have a much better understand of what reiki is, how it works, and what to look out for if you're interested in booking a reiki session with someone or pursuing certification yourself!

October 2023 Astrology Forecast: At A Crossroads

We're continuing our monthly astrology series and looking at the astrology of October 2023. HOW ARE WE ALREADY IN OCTOBER???

The theme for this month is "At A Crossroads" - so we're breaking down the idea of "crossroads" in some really intricate ways, because it's a common theme in mythology and folklore across many cultures. October is basically like one giant crossroads moment. Where will you choose to go from here?

We're not going to sugarcoat it: October has a lot going on. You might say it'll feel pretty "heated" because the "Via Combusta" (AKA the "fiery road") is getting activated by a ton of planetary alignments. We're telling you what the Via Combusta means and how it's being activated throughout the month. Between two eclipses (a New Moon Eclipse in Libra and a Full Moon Eclipse in Taurus), five (count them, five!) planets changing signs, and Pluto finally ending its long retrograde...there's a lot of cosmic action going on and we're ready to share it all with you.

How are you feeling about October? Are there any celestial events or astrological alignments that you're particularly eager to experience?

The Spirituality of Friendship

In this week's episode, we're breaking down the meaning of friendship. It might seem like a light and fluffy subject on the surface, but as with all of our topics, this subject manages to go much deeper than you might expect.

We are social creatures. No matter how independent you think you might be, connectivity with others -- especially having quality friends -- is wildly important. Friendship is more than a quick fix for your desire to socialize. It's a necessary experience that's embedded within us as humans. The wrong friends can literally have a harmful impact on your DNA. But what about the right friends? What even is a good friend? How many friends can you feasibly have? How do you choose who's in you inner circle and who isn't?

Quality friendships have impacts on our social, emotional and even physical health. In fact, your ability to survive a heart attack depends more on the quality of your friendships than smoking 20 cigarettes a day. Friendship is a special kind of connection that deserves your time and energy, but many of us simply don't know how to create or nurture those connections -- or how to break up with the friends who no longer fit in our lives.

The Serendipity Sessions: Life's a Hurricane

In this installment of The Serendipity Sessions, we’re talking about hurricanes. Not only the historic (and weirdly underwhelming) Hurricane Hilary that recently took Los Angeles by storm (no pun in tended), but also the feeling of a hurricane. The hurricanes we go through in life, the ways we become hurricanes ourselves, the beauty of getting swept up by something or someone, the purpose of feeling dispersed and scattered... And the need to let go of the damage that's been done so we can truly appreciate what we're left with in the end.

Ryan is fresh off his own hurricane as he records this after a saucy & sleepless night. Megan, an East Coast hurricane veteran, is well rested and provides super relevant tips for surviving hurricanes (both real and metaphorical).

Coins & Consciousness: Your Money Mindset Matters

For legal reasons, we want to make it clear that THIS EPISODE IS NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE.

This is also not an episode about the history of capitalism, or investment recommendations, or an exploration of the economy or financial markets.

This is an honest conversation that acknowledges the multifaceted beliefs, emotions, mindsets and sensitivities people have about money. At the heart of it, money is a nuanced and personal experience. Money isn’t just a currency. It’s a reflection of our lives and our values. Money is a conceptual, energetic, and necessary tool to help you understand your self-worth. Because your self-worth is your net worth.

In this episode, we share our personal experiences with money and share our thoughts and information about lack mindsets, growth psychology, manifestation techniques, and more. We’re bouncing between topics associated with privilege, greed, jealousy and beyond to better develop a healthier relationship with money.

The intersection of spirituality and wealth can make the values in our hearts collide with the demands of the material world. It’s a complex subject — one that we’ll tackle from multiple angles in a few different episodes over time. But as we begin the conversation with this episode, our goal is to acknowledge the profound ways money influences our lives, and help you understand the importance of viewing money beyond a tangible object. Ultimately, it’s about seeing the endless wealth that exists when you tune into your authenticity.

"Since its creation, money hasn’t been just a measure of wealth; at times it’s been a symbol of our values and a test of our morality. The way in which one uses money may build or destroy one’s reputation and standing in a community, and it certainly demonstrates one’s character.
