You Are the Authority: Stop Giving Your Power Away to Psychics, Tarot & Your Guides · The Spiritual Shitshow Podcast

• 0:00
  Hello, and welcome back to the Spiritual Shit Show.
• 0:02
  My name is Julie Nguyen, and I am so glad that you are here in whatever state you're in, messy, put together, or somewhere in the chaotic middle.
• 0:12
  I wanna share something with you today.
• 0:13
  There is something that my guides have been practically shouting at me lately and not whispering.
• 0:19
  If you listen to the other podcast, they're very good at calling me out lately What they have been telling me lately is,"Julie, you are the authority.
• 0:30
  We are just your guides.
• 0:32
  We are just your team, but the authority is you." and I think this is the most important thing we can possibly talk about when it comes to intuition, channeling, psychic readings, astrology, tarot cards, all of it.
• 0:45
  Because listen, if you're listening to this show, you probably are a seeker, and you're doing the work, and you work with energy.
• 0:54
  You ask questions.
• 0:55
  You look for signs.
• 0:57
  You journal.
• 0:58
  You manifest.
• 0:59
  And you're constantly seeking.
• 1:02
  What, what is happening?
• 1:03
  What does my future look like?
• 1:06
  You're wanting that crystal ball, and yet here's the message.
• 1:10
  Your guides are not running your life.
• 1:14
  A psychic is not running your life.
• 1:16
  Your cards are not running your life.
• 1:17
  Your astrological transits are not running your life.
• 1:21
  You know who's running your life?
• 1:24
  You are.
• 1:25
  You are.
• 1:28
  Now let's pause, because if you're new to this space or if the word guides make you slightly uncomfortable, let's just unpack that for a second.
• 1:38
  When I say guides, I'm not talking about spooky ghosts or, uh, you know, some people are like,"You're possessed by the devil." Guides are simply the loving, non-physical support team that walks along us It's our team to help us navigate this human experiment.
• 2:00
  Some people call them spirit guides, ancestors, angels.
• 2:04
  In psychology, we might look at them as the profound wisdom of your own subconscious, the deep self, as Carl Jung talked about.
• 2:14
  That quiet, uncorrupted place within you that knows who you are before the world told you who to be.
• 2:22
  Whether you view them as external spiritual allies or the deepest, wisest layer of your own nervous system, here's the truth: they are working with us all the time, and more accurately, they are working for us all the time, but they cannot live the life for us.
• 2:49
  From a neurological perspective, our brains are hardwired to seek certainty.
• 2:54
  We hate the unknown.
• 2:56
  That's why I'm always like,"Tell me.
• 2:57
  Tell me the answer.
• 2:59
  What is happening?" It feels like death to our primal, survival-driven minds when we are in the unknown.
• 3:10
  So when we are in a season of transition, when a marriage is crumbling, or is, or a business is dissolving, a career is ending, and we are just desperately lonely, and we are fighting for answers, our brains panic, and in that panic, we look for a savior.
• 3:33
  We reach out for the psychic reading.
• 3:35
  We pull a tarot card.
• 3:37
  We search our astrology charts, not actually looking for growth, but looking for a predetermined script.
• 3:45
  And we want someone to hand us a map and say,"Here, if you take three steps left and two steps right, you will not get hurt, and this is all part of the plan, and you will not feel pain." that we're gonna come out of it, but that's not how it works.
• 3:59
  I wish it did.
• 4:00
  Lord knows I wish it did.
• 4:02
  I'm reaching out for psychic support, like, all the time.
• 4:05
  When you ask your guides or your intuition to give you a perfect script to follow, you are bypassing your own sovereign power.
• 4:16
  You are handing the keys of your life over to the universe and saying,"You drive.
• 4:21
  I'm too scared." and your guides are sitting there in the passenger seat saying,"Uh, we don't have feet.
• 4:27
  We can't reach the pedals.
• 4:28
  You have to drive.
• 4:30
  But we can help you navigate it.
• 4:31
  We can support you.
• 4:32
  We can be your biggest cheerleaders." Your intuition is not a crystal ball.
• 4:38
  It is a compass.
• 4:40
  A compass doesn't build the road for you.
• 4:44
  it doesn't tell you what obstacles are hiding in the woods.
• 4:46
  It just points you in the direction of your truth.
• 4:50
  I'm gonna say that again.
• 4:52
  The guides are just supporting you and pointing you in the direction of your truth.
• 4:59
  And when we reach out for a reading, when we pray, when we meditate, what we are really saying is,"Help me see what I can't see yet.
• 5:11
  Help me clear the fog of my anxiety, my trauma, my fear, my conditioning so I can stand in my own authority.
• 5:20
  I can stand in my own power.
• 5:23
  I can remember who I am, where I come from, and what I came here to do, experience, create." You are not a passive character in a story that was already written.
• 5:36
  You are participating in the active breath-by-breath creation of your life.
• 5:45
  Every choice you make, every boundary you set, every time you say no to what is uncomfortable and yes to what is true, you are rewriting the code.
• 5:57
  So take a deep breath.
• 5:59
  Let your shoulders drop away from your ears.
• 6:01
  Feel your feet on the earth.
• 6:04
  This body you are in, this beating heart, this is headquarters.
• 6:12
  This is where the decisions are made.
• 6:15
  Your team is ready.
• 6:16
  They are on standby cheering you on, holding the light, whispering their love, calling you out, and they are also waiting for your command.
• 6:27
  You are the co-creator.
• 6:29
  You are the creator of your experience We are just the guides, but you are the authority.
• 6:39
  Now go live like it.
