Transcript
- 0:08What type of spirituality was practiced in the house growing up?
- 0:14We were religious then, so, you know, I grew up religious.
- 0:19I grew up Southern Baptist.
- 0:22So we went to church.
- 0:23We, you know, went to all the revivals, Bible study, Sunday school.
- 0:30That's.
- 0:31That's how I grew up.
- 0:35Are you still doing it?
- 0:37No.
- 0:38When did you.
- 0:39No, that was a quick.
- 0:42When did you step out of that?
- 0:46Me, myself, I started stepping away from church, like, fully around 33, 34.
- 0:54Well, how old are you now?
- 0:58Huh?
- 0:5938?
- 1:0033.
- 1:02So the transformation just began, so about five years ago?
- 1:07Yes.
- 1:08Well, when did you start?
- 1:13Oh, wait, I'm sorry.
- 1:15I'm sorry.
- 1:16You said, you said that around 32, 33, like, the whole church thing stopped.
- 1:22Yeah.
- 1:23Okay, so that's around the time that you have.
- 1:27I don't know, I think it's like your.
- 1:30Your third Jupiter return.
- 1:32Is that right, Paul?
- 1:34I'm not sure.
- 1:35Yeah, it's like, because, yeah, around 33 you have a.
- 1:41A Jupiter return.
- 1:42So you kind of come into like a.
- 1:46I guess, you know, like a.
- 1:47Like a start of a new belief if.
- 1:50Right.
- 1:51Well, 33 would be the Christ age as well.
- 1:55And you spoke on that in my reading.
- 1:58I did.
- 1:59When you went back to, like, show all the stars of, like, major life events.
- 2:06Huh?
- 2:07You spoke on it.
- 2:08You was like, well, I'm not surprised that you stepped out around this time.
- 2:11And I was like, this is so dope.
- 2:13There you go.
- 2:16I'm sorry, I don't remember.
- 2:19That happens to astrologers.
- 2:21Huh?
- 2:22That happens to astrologers.
- 2:23I mean, you know, sometimes.
- 2:27Well, I know you probably can understand, Missy Lee sometimes when you in the middle of doing your thing, it's kind of like you're in a zone.
- 2:38And, you know, after it a few weeks, somebody may come and say something to you like, hey, you said this.
- 2:46And you're like, man, I don't know what you're talking about.
- 2:50That's a daily occurrence for me.
- 2:52Really?
- 2:53Yes.
- 2:55It's strange.
- 2:57And people kind of look at you strange, like.
- 2:59But, hey, you're not the only.
- 3:02They shouldn't look at you strange because what you do, right, and how you're studying and learning other people and you do your own form of readings and divination.
- 3:12I do my own form, yes.
- 3:14They should not expect us to continue to carry that around with us every day.
- 3:20You know, we have to get that information and that energy off of us.
- 3:24It's not ours.
- 3:25It's for us to use to help someone else.
- 3:27So I done helped you.
- 3:28You got your messages Let me get this off of me.
- 3:32That's too much information to hold on to.
- 3:34And then that would be kind of selfish of you to really think that you're so that important.
- 3:40And I'm just going to remember every aspect of your thing, how many people I talk to.
- 3:49So when did you first start getting into Tarot?
- 3:54I actually didn't start out with tarot.
- 3:57I started out with Oracle cards.
- 4:00What's the difference?
- 4:04For me, Tarot cards are for.
- 4:07I'll put it like this.
- 4:08For me, Tarot cards are more harsh, you know, with the message direct.
- 4:13Oracle cards are more softer with their messages and answers, more softer approach.
- 4:18But it's also more solutions based, if that makes sense.
- 4:23Absolutely, I would agree with that.
- 4:26Yes, it does make sense.
- 4:27It's kind of the reason why I switched from modern astrology to Hellenistic astrology.
- 4:39Because it's more.
- 4:42It's not more.
- 4:43Hey, come sit down.
- 4:44Let me hold your hand.
- 4:46It's, you know, X's and O's and hey, this is what it is.
- 4:50The raw truth, ladies and gentlemen.
- 4:53And this is what it is.
- 4:55Deal with it or don't deal with it or get let it get dealt with pretty much.
- 5:04So what, how so you jumped into Oracle?
- 5:07When was that?
- 5:11I want to say, like, not too long after I stepped away from the church.
- 5:15Maybe like a few weeks.
- 5:20So few weeks to a couple, to maybe a couple of months because I was like in limbo first, it was hard for me to step away from church.
- 5:29Wow, that's.
- 5:30That's very interesting.
- 5:31Wait, so, so wait, so you did the kind of.
- 5:35Did like a whole cold turkey type thing.
- 5:38Just, just one day you just like.
- 5:41Oh, was you dabbling?
- 5:43Studying a little bit.
- 5:44And then my whole transformation from church to being, you know, walking in spirituality, it came from me just doing research on our history.
- 5:59Once I was able to figure out that so much of what we were taught was a lie, I toyed probably like a good year with breaking away from Jesus because that was all I'd ever known.
- 6:13So I felt really guilty just leaving.
- 6:17You know what I mean?
- 6:18So I toyed with it back and forth, and then once I finally got there, I was like, okay, I'm just done with it.
- 6:23Wow.
- 6:26Wow, that's amazing.
- 6:27Wait.
- 6:28Well, I know, Claudia, you may not really know, but that process is not an easy process.
- 6:39And, and it's kind of.
- 6:42Yeah, I remember we, we kind of spoke about it with the episode with Rhys and, and your friend Marcus, you know, about the whole, you know, Christianity and like, some people get very Very attached to church and whatnot.
- 6:56But.
- 6:57But I'm saying, wow, it's.
- 6:58It's amazing how she just described that, because that had to have happened during our Jupiter return where she kind of came to like this.
- 7:04Like, it was almost like something must have fallen apart, an illusion must have fallen apart for her.
- 7:09For her to kind of be like, okay, that's did.
- 7:13Well, it's.
- 7:16Information will do that to you and kind of knock you in the head a little bit.
- 7:21Absolutely.
- 7:24But.
- 7:25But yeah, it's kind of.
- 7:27It's kind of like going through a sickness.
- 7:32Yes.
- 7:32And trying to recover.
- 7:38I mean, the process.
- 7:39And it's actually a lonely process as well.
- 7:45Yes.
- 7:46I don't know how.
- 7:48Was that your experience being alone in the process?
- 7:53Yes.
- 7:54Yes.
- 7:55Because you really couldn't just tell, you know, people, your family or, you know, your closest friends in that moment.
- 8:01Because you sound crazy.
- 8:05You sound crazy.
- 8:06Like something wrong with her.
- 8:07And I just had to sit with myself and just pay attention to what I had researched and.
- 8:13And what I saw and.
- 8:14And all the research.
- 8:15I just was like, we're not supposed to be.
- 8:20This is not what we're supposed to be doing.
- 8:26And you just mentioned your family.
- 8:29How did they take you?
- 8:31You're walking into this journey.
- 8:36Well, my mom.
- 8:36By that time, my mama had passed away, so I didn't really have to worry about her.
- 8:43My daddy, he didn't like it.
- 8:44He.
- 8:44He didn't like it.
- 8:45He.
- 8:45He had very rough response to that, but he knows to.
- 8:52To the tarot or you walking away to tarot.
- 8:57And he looks at it.
- 8:59He looks at it as.
- 9:01Oh, wow.
- 9:03That was actually one of my questions.
- 9:06And it was.
- 9:06And I counteracted that question, actually.
- 9:08He was like, paul, you really.
- 9:10I was like, paul, don't.
- 9:12Yeah, I said, of course I'm gonna ask that question.
- 9:15And now you see why.
- 9:18Okay, I get it now.
- 9:19I get it now.
- 9:20Yeah.
- 9:22Why does he think it's evil?
- 9:25He looks at it as demonic, as it being, you know, Satan fueled.
- 9:35And, you know, I'm using Satan aspects to do tarot, and anything that's not Jesus fueled is just evil.
- 9:45I'm just, like, not like that.
- 9:46But I.
- 9:47But that is actually a conversation and a boundary I had to draw with my daddy.
- 9:54We don't speak on what I do anymore because it makes me upset if he tries to pull me back in or say what I'm doing is demonic or how I'm raising my children.
- 10:04So we don't speak on what I do anymore.
- 10:06So if it's not evil.
- 10:08What is it?
- 10:09I don't.
- 10:10I don't feel it.
- 10:11It's evil.
- 10:11I feel that it is a way to divine.
- 10:15It's a tool.
- 10:16It's a tool.
- 10:17It's a divination tool.
- 10:18Exactly.
- 10:19It's a way to answers that we normally wouldn't get.
- 10:23Absolutely.
- 10:24And I feel like the answers that we get come from spirit, come from God, come from, you know, whatever your version of the One is.
- 10:35Okay.
- 10:36Everybody's is different.
