  SPEAKER_00: And hey everybody, welcome to another episode of the Digital Soul Space Podcast, The Week in Review.
• 0:43
  SPEAKER_00: As you've already heard, my name is Mike Robert, and I'm the creator of Digital Soul Space.
• 0:48
  SPEAKER_00: And we have these little weekly recaps as a way of letting you know what's going on on digitalsoulspace.org.
• 0:56
  SPEAKER_00: We are an independent online metaphysical community.
• 1:00
  SPEAKER_00: And we have no ads, no algorithms, and we never sell your data.
• 1:06
  SPEAKER_00: Because your privacy is an absolute must on digital soul space.
• 1:10
  SPEAKER_00: We don't have to sell your data, we are member funded.
• 1:13
  SPEAKER_00: We're like the PBS of spiritual communities.
• 1:16
  SPEAKER_00: So it's really cool like that.
• 1:19
  SPEAKER_00: And we're able to offer this community in really an authentic manner because we're not selling you anything and we cover the cost of the site if you can't donate.
• 1:34
  SPEAKER_00: And why do we do it?
• 1:36
  SPEAKER_00: It's because it's a passion of ours.
• 1:39
  SPEAKER_00: Uh we're run by volunteers.
• 1:41
  SPEAKER_00: I created the site five years ago after having a download at the gym to create a safe place where people don't talk about politics, people aren't rude, but it looks like Facebook.
• 1:53
  SPEAKER_00: It looks like you know a social media site.
• 1:56
  SPEAKER_00: And it has been an incredible journey in the last five years.
• 2:00
  SPEAKER_00: We celebrate our five fifth birthday on January 1st, so 2027.
• 2:06
  SPEAKER_00: So we're super excited about that milestone and the fact that we're still around and we're growing, and we just migrated to an amazing new self-hosted platform and custom code, and it's just we have a beautiful site that truly reflects the sort of mystical aspects of digital soul space and what we're all about.
• 2:33
  SPEAKER_00: So we'd love to have you on there.
• 2:36
  SPEAKER_00: So, but first, before we move on, uh I just want to give a quick shout out to my co-hosts, Anne Marie and Cheryl Mitchell Haynes.
• 2:48
  SPEAKER_00: I could not manage Digital SoulSpace without them.
• 2:52
  SPEAKER_00: They moderate the site, they run it behind the scenes along with me, and without them, I could not do what I do uh with digital soul space.
• 3:02
  SPEAKER_00: So a huge thank you to them.
• 3:05
  SPEAKER_00: We had a huge week this week.
• 3:07
  SPEAKER_00: So uh one of the things that happened was to me personally is that we had a gathering at our home, which we lovingly referred to as Casa Mystica, and we had a shamanic ceremony, and it was pretty amazing.
• 3:26
  SPEAKER_00: We did what's called a despacho, which is a shamanic offering, and we placed these items on white paper, and we had about maybe twenty, twenty-five guests over, and everyone went and picked from items on the table.
• 3:45
  SPEAKER_00: We had rosemary, we had candies, we had uh rose petals, all sorts of different items, animal crackers, and you got these items, you got you picked them, you chose them with intention, and you breathed into them uh your intention and you placed them on the despacho in a sort of decorative fashion.
• 4:10
  SPEAKER_00: And everybody went around, you know, doing this and uh decorating, and it was really, really wonderful.
• 4:18
  SPEAKER_00: Excuse all the little tones in the background.
• 4:21
  SPEAKER_00: I don't even know why they're happening at this hour because I'm recording this at nine o'clock at night, and uh it appears that people for my paying job are still working this late at night, so that you might hear those little tones in the background.
• 4:39
  SPEAKER_00: So uh just chuck uh chalk that up to spirit validating abundance and all sorts of good things.
• 4:49
  SPEAKER_00: How's that?
• 4:50
  SPEAKER_00: So uh moving on, that little gathering was really big, and we had someone on our at that someone by the name of Amy, a huge shout out to her.
• 5:01
  SPEAKER_00: She wrote a prayer to be burned as an offering into the fire pit that we had at this gathering, and she asked that I read it out loud to everyone, and it was so special, it touched so many people.
• 5:19
  SPEAKER_00: It was about the full moon and about releasing.
• 5:22
  SPEAKER_00: We had this incredible harvest full moon, and it the energy was super intense, and we had just so many people crying, they were already crying from the despotro ceremony.
• 5:32
  SPEAKER_00: But then after I read Amy's um prayer, we even had one of our guests ask if they could use it as their daily mantra, so I printed it out for them because I knew Amy would totally love that, and she did, and so that was an amazing um thing going on in our in my own home with my husband Anthony.
• 5:56
  SPEAKER_00: Now on digital soul space, we had some big changes, some new additions to our brand new space.
• 6:03
  SPEAKER_00: We had uh a new tarot tool, which is pretty amazing, and I'm gonna talk about that.
• 6:09
  SPEAKER_00: But first, let me welcome our new members because we had quite a few this week, and I'm not gonna say their full names because we are all about privacy, but um a warm welcome to Katie, uh Venus, Susanna, Andrea, Esmeralda, Jody, Laura, Carlin, Josefina, Leah, Ted, Kevin, Eric, and Dee.
• 6:39
  SPEAKER_00: Welcome to Digital SoulSpace.
• 6:41
  SPEAKER_00: We do have people from all over the world that visit our community, especially England.
• 6:47
  SPEAKER_00: Everybody in England is it's just so wonderful.
• 6:50
  SPEAKER_00: No wonder I love watching British television.
• 6:52
  SPEAKER_00: But yeah, we have people from all over um the world uh visiting.
• 6:58
  SPEAKER_00: So the Hunter Moon was intense energy, uh super intense.
• 7:03
  SPEAKER_00: We had some of our members talking about it and the gathering space, and they wrote about you know waking up early and just floating in the energy of this full moon and thinking about how much there is really uh to let go of, and um, and it didn't really feel scary to them at all.
• 7:22
  SPEAKER_00: And we had uh other people uh talking about the full moon, and then we asked the community a question about hey, what are you doing for Sawin?
• 7:32
  SPEAKER_00: Uh, which you know happens on October 31st, and what are you doing for that?
• 7:37
  SPEAKER_00: And a lot of people were really honest about it and and and talked about it.
• 7:42
  SPEAKER_00: Uh and you know what's going on.
• 7:45
  SPEAKER_00: Of course, because we had this amazing full moon, we had our usual photos that our members love to submit and post in the gathering space all about the full moon.
• 7:57
  SPEAKER_00: They love to share their photos of how it looks like from where they are and their part of the world.
• 8:01
  SPEAKER_00: Now, I mentioned this earlier over in our tarot space, we have a brand new feature, um, which is tarot spreads.
• 8:09
  SPEAKER_00: So basically, many of you might have a phone app on your phone that uh lets you pull cards at random or lets you pull them in a spread.
• 8:18
  SPEAKER_00: We developed our own.
• 8:20
  SPEAKER_00: We basically have it uh with our very own gothic fairy deck that we have, and so you can go ahead and pull uh typical, you know, past, present, future, a Celtic cross, you can do mind, body, and spirit, and you have the option to say this reading to your device to email it, you know, message it to others, or you can even put it, post it on the feed.
• 8:44
  SPEAKER_00: There's a button right there, it says post it in the gathering space so other people can see what you pulled and you you know you can comment about it.
• 8:52
  SPEAKER_00: So that's really wonderful.
• 8:54
  SPEAKER_00: That new uh tarot little feature in Digital Soul Space, and it's free, right?
• 9:00
  SPEAKER_00: It's free 24/7.
• 9:02
  SPEAKER_00: Also, we have a the coolest little game on Digital Soul Space.
• 9:06
  SPEAKER_00: I'm a huge fan of a 1980s adventure games.
• 9:10
  SPEAKER_00: I used to play this series called King's Quest like like so much when I was a teenager in the 80s, and I wanted something that would kind of be in alignment with the just the mystic and the paranormal conversations that we sometimes have on digital soul space.
• 9:29
  SPEAKER_00: So we created a haunted house game called uh Hollow Mirror Manor, and it is a haunted house that you walk into, and it has the most intriguing backstory about a seance that happened many, many years ago, and that souls were trapped.
• 9:49
  SPEAKER_00: So we totally redid the soundtrack of the game.
• 9:53
  SPEAKER_00: We have access to licensed content music sound effects, and we probably added close to 20 uh soundtracks.
• 10:03
  SPEAKER_00: Every single room in the house has its own soundtrack, and we have well over 30 special effect sounds and everything.
• 10:10
  SPEAKER_00: And and you can also interact with other members that are in the haunted house when you are.
• 10:16
  SPEAKER_00: In fact, it'll it'll freak you out because you'll get a little message on the screen that says something like Lauren is here with you in the room, and it makes it spooky.
• 10:28
  SPEAKER_00: It'll you know, it says she's standing perfectly still.
• 10:32
  SPEAKER_00: Cool, really cool game.
• 10:34
  SPEAKER_00: Uh that uh that Hollomir manor is it's a lot of fun, and when you win, the game ends, but you can play it again because all the clues shift and the values uh shift around.
• 10:48
  SPEAKER_00: But you you gotta collect items throughout the house, you gotta use some of those items to navigate the house.
• 10:54
  SPEAKER_00: It's it's very uh retro style sort of thing, and the ending is way cool.
• 11:01
  SPEAKER_00: It's totally reimagined uh the ending, and it's very dramatic and suspenseful.
• 11:06
  SPEAKER_00: So a lot of fun that people are playing that game.
• 11:09
  SPEAKER_00: It's just something to let you feel immersed in in the vibe of digital soul space, and it's fun.
• 11:16
  SPEAKER_00: Now we have an amazing gentleman on digital soul space named Donald Patak, and he runs a website called Freedom Through Astrology, and he also has his very own space on digital soul space.
• 11:29
  SPEAKER_00: And Donald is an expert in sidereal astrology, which is also called visible sky astrology.
• 11:36
  SPEAKER_00: It is not the same thing as tropical astrology, okay, and or western astrology is what you're, you know, there's actually 13 signs in sidereal astrology.
• 11:48
  SPEAKER_00: And the really cool thing about Donald is he doesn't just talk about astrology, he likes to always drop in little events that's going on in his life when he talks about the sky.
• 11:58
  SPEAKER_00: Like this week he was talking about his rice and grain cooker, um, how surprised he was to that Canada beat England and woman's rugby twice in a row.
• 12:09
  SPEAKER_00: He loves talking about his cats, but he's also talking about things like Sun conjuncting Venus retrograde, Mars and Leo bringing the courage to be seen, the North Node moving into Capricorn, all sorts of cool things like that.
• 12:24
  SPEAKER_00: So stop on by Digital Soul Space and and take a uh a view at Donald's posts.
• 12:31
  SPEAKER_00: They're pretty amazing, and he's a really uh amazing soul and uh and a lot of fun to chat with.
• 12:39
  SPEAKER_00: So on a more serious note, we had a member this week that unfortunately found a owl that had been struck by a vehicle on their way home, and it was a very tender moment for them.
• 12:54
  SPEAKER_00: And what they did is they pulled over on the side of the road and they totally honored the spirit of the owl by covering it in leaves and just you know sending good vibes towards the spirit of the owl, and it was just so special that they would share that, and you could totally feel this energy in this post, and so kind of them too, because you know, 99.99% of the people out there just drive past, and you know, some people might say, Oh, look how sad, you know, a dead owl.
• 13:25
  SPEAKER_00: But um yeah, this member totally uh was very touched by it and felt it necessary to honor the owl.
• 13:33
  SPEAKER_00: So we're very thankful that they would share that experience uh with us.
• 13:40
  SPEAKER_00: We also have beautiful poetry on our site.
• 13:43
  SPEAKER_00: We have some resident uh poets.
• 13:46
  SPEAKER_00: We have Marion and Martin who love writing poetry, uh just amazing uh w pieces of work.
• 13:55
  SPEAKER_00: Martin even sent me several of his uh books that he has published with poems, it just uh just really amazing work, and it's uh a lot of times focused on spirituality and and your path.
• 14:12
  SPEAKER_00: So we're really blessed to have them on our site.
• 14:16
  SPEAKER_00: So there was a lot of poetry this week on on Digital SoulSpace.
• 14:21
  SPEAKER_00: There was um a lot of posts about dragons, um and this is because Marion knitted the coolest dragons, and now my little tiny grandfather clock is donging in the background.
• 14:39
  SPEAKER_00: It sounds like the game Hallomere Manor and excuse me on digital soul space.
• 14:45
  SPEAKER_00: Um what else?
• 14:47
  SPEAKER_00: And that's well, oh yeah, and I can well actually, oh yes, our events section.
• 14:54
  SPEAKER_00: So we have our events section back.
• 14:57
  SPEAKER_00: They were it was a section that contained all our events on our previous hosted site, and we have built out our new event section, which looks absolutely gorgeous, and you can register for an event, RSVP for it, get reminders emailed to you, and uh it's just a really cool event system that we developed, and it's available now, and it's a great way to be reminded about our bi-weekly light lounge, and this is a place where you can get together with other members using Zoom, and we all get together, we chat.
• 15:34
  SPEAKER_00: You don't have to have your cameras on, most people do, but you don't have to if you don't want to, and we chat about you know things sometimes.
• 15:41
  SPEAKER_00: We do stuff like remote viewing exercises, we'll do readings.
• 15:45
  SPEAKER_00: Anne Marie might take out her pendulum and talk about that.
• 15:49
  SPEAKER_00: It's a lot of fun, so come check out the Light Lounge on Digital Soul Space and utilize the events section to get the time in your area.
• 15:58
  SPEAKER_00: It's always at 8 p.m.
• 16:00
  SPEAKER_00: Eastern time bi-weekly, and you can check out the exact uh schedule on the events section.
• 16:07
  SPEAKER_00: Also, remember that our new hosted site has its own home screen app.
• 16:13
  SPEAKER_00: And you might be wondering, well, what's a home screen app?
• 16:16
  SPEAKER_00: Well, it's exactly like an app you might find at the app store, except it's installed on your home screen with just a little few clicks.
• 16:25
  SPEAKER_00: You just have to go to digitalsoulspace.org and either on the very main page or on the welcome screen, it'll remind you to create the home screen app.
• 16:35
  SPEAKER_00: And it's a wonderful way to have an app on your phone that you don't need to download and install.
• 16:40
  SPEAKER_00: It's basically a little shell of a program that takes in the traffic from the site, you know, the web traffic and converts it to a very app look and feel.
• 16:51
  SPEAKER_00: And it's amazing.
• 16:53
  SPEAKER_00: Uh you don't have a URL bar, um, it's just really, really cool.
• 16:57
  SPEAKER_00: And believe it or not, a lot of apps in the app store actually do the exact same thing, but you just don't know it.
• 17:05
  SPEAKER_00: So it's just a wonderful way to have an app without paying the app prices for it.
• 17:11
  SPEAKER_00: So if you're on digital source space and you're enjoying it, you definitely want to try the home screen app.
• 17:18
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, folks, well, that's pretty much a wrap and just a reminder of what makes us so special.
• 17:24
  SPEAKER_00: We are an independent online metaphysical community.

  SPEAKER_00: We are a free site, but we accept donations through donor box, and we're able to provide this amazing site uh free of gurus.
• 17:49
  SPEAKER_00: If you are familiar with the spiritual types that will point out exactly what you're doing wrong in your life, and will want something in order to show you their way of doing things and promise you a lot in return.
• 18:06
  SPEAKER_00: We don't go that route.
• 18:07
  SPEAKER_00: If you like that, that's not a problem.
• 18:11
  SPEAKER_00: Everybody's journey is their own.
• 18:13
  SPEAKER_00: We just don't have that on digital soul space.
• 18:16
  SPEAKER_00: We are a group of people that share, and everybody is a student and a teacher on digital soul space.
• 18:24
  SPEAKER_00: There's no such thing, in our opinion, of a wrong journey or telling anyone you're doing it wrong.
• 18:30
  SPEAKER_00: What we are doing is learning from one another, one another, and enjoying the process and sharing our stories and and sharing our gifts, our abilities with one another, and it's just so much fun.
