“Hello, sweet souls. How are you? How are you doing? How are you feeling? How is your heart?
I'm coming in with a resonance message for this week, and I think it's a series of messages. I'm not really sure exactly what I'm going to say, but what I wanted to start out by saying is, trust the shift that's happening in you, because it's happening for you. You are shifting and it's happening for you. But before I explain that and offer more…
Hi. My name is Maggie. I have been wanting to make this video for three or four days. I'm a little late. Please forgive me. I had ceremony this weekend, and ceremony days kind of take a lot of energy from me, but it was absolutely beautiful and such an healing and uplifting time, and I'm glad to now be settled back in and back with you.
I am Maggie. I'm a storyteller. I'm a ritualist, and I work with various things in ritual. I work with Cacao, ceremonial Cacao. I work with the ancestors, a collective of ancestors who speak through me. I work with the elements, and I work to help you hear your Soul and retrieve all the parts of you that you may have left behind, bring them back, into the sort of all-knowing parts of you, the parts of you that transcend time and space, your Soul, your sweet Soul. That's why I say hello, sweet souls.
I do this here, through emails, through my stories, and I do it in ceremony and ritual and workshops that I host in person, and I also offer one on one mentorship. So those are all the ways that you may work with me, if you ever hear the call.
I was going to wait to make a video, and just kind of like, let this week go, because it's a big week. It's been a big month. March was a big month. And as we now move into April, we're sort of experiencing like a delayed energetic New Year, right?
I always think that the new year begins around the time that Aries season starts, right? Because that's the beginning of the new zodiacal zodi… say it… the new astrology calendar. I can't say zodiac today. I don't know what's going on. That might be a message for someone, but we were in the middle of eclipse season at the end of March, and it was a lot. It brought up a lot for so many people.
I know because I hosted two ceremonies, one at the beginning of eclipse season and one at the end or right after eclipse season ended, and I could feel the weight and the heaviness. I could feel so much, so much grief and so much emotion that people were holding on to and carrying with them, right? And we're always carrying that, right? We just get to decide where we carry it and how we carry it, and what we do about it.
But I couldn't let this week go, because there is a little bit of relief in the air and what you were feeling over the last couple of weeks, the tension, the agitation, the not knowing, the lack of clarity, the old stories coming up to kind of stare you in the face and say, “Hey, are we done? Are you letting me go?”
Once we move past the eclipse and we enter into April, there's a little bit of relief, and theoretically, hopefully, I place this on the altar between us with the hope that it is your experience, but it may not be. Hopefully, you're now seeing the shift that's happening within you, and my offering is for you to trust that shift, trust that what's unfolding, what's releasing, what's coming in and arriving, that it's all happening for you.
And the message is to trust the shift. Trust the shift that is happening for you. It is unlocking, unfolding, glowing and enlighting, a new version of you, a version of you that said, “Okay, we're done with X, Y and Z. Let's move on to a, b, c, that's who I am now, right?”
This shift was very noticeable. It almost felt like a light switch, right? The light was off and now we turned it on, or the light was on, and now we turned it off, and there's just a little glow from the night light or from the stars, right?
So the shift that you're moving through is happening right now. It's tangible, like you can touch it. You can see it, you can feel it. And there are new things arriving in your field because you are calling them in. You are welcoming them. You are saying, “Hi, here's my altar. What do you want to place on the altar? Source, universe, God, love, right?”
And you get to decide what you're going to do with it all.
The main thing I wanted to come in and say was, you don't have to decide what to do with it all today or even this week.
You're going to hear a lot of messages about April and how it is like going to be the kicker of this year from a resonance perspective, right? I offer messages on the resonance, on the energy, as I feel it in the field, and you're going to hear a lot of messages on how wild it is.
And yes, it is wild, right? But you get to be the beacon in that wildness. You get to be the buoy in that wildness. You get to be as still as you want to be, right? And let the wildness happen around you right? Let the shifts that are unfolding for you unfold. And then you get to, like, slowly, take one foot and then the next foot and step into the new version of you.
And you do not have to do that on April 1 or April 2 or April 3. You get to do that when it feels right, and you get to do it in bits and pieces.
And I received a particular message around your purpose and how it's becoming more clear to you, maybe not all of it, but pieces of it. And I could notice this in the ceremonies that I did over the last couple of weeks. I could notice that pain was coming up to the surface for many people in order for them to see the truth.
And the truth is, your pain is your purpose. The other side of your pain, the other side of experiencing that pain and that discomfort, that's where your purpose lies.
And that may not be like a huge, big purpose that you're going to spend the rest of your life doing. It may mean your intention for the next few moments, for the next few days, weeks, months, years, right? It can be that simple.
And that's a message that I felt it was important for you to know, that your pain, what's come up over the last few weeks and what will continue to poke at you over this month, right? Because with everything that's happening in the field… Everything that's happening is for us, reflections of us to us, right?
And so if you feel pain, if you feel triggered into your pain, into your deepest pain, you are being brought there for a reason. You are being brought there for a divinely guided purpose, and that is not to sit in your pain. That is to allow your pain and to bring a lot of curiosity to it, to see, to see the other side of it from a gift you're meant to understand and perhaps offer to yourself or to your soul family or to the world. You get to decide, right?
And in particular, I heard this. There may be some pain that you're moving through, or some victim mentality that you're moving through, that other people judge you for or critique you for, and you do not need to defend yourself, but that particular pain that is telling you a whole story, that is a book, right?
I'm going to give you an example of what I mean, and it is sensitive, but I'm going to share it because it's sort of like hit me in the eyes, like I just kind of like flashed in front of me a few weeks ago.
So I ritualize much of my life, right? I host ceremony for others. I create rituals for others, to feel, to express, to set intentions, to call in all the love they're looking for by becoming the love that they already are, by letting that love surface, right? And that means that I see so much of life as something to which to offer reverence.
All of life is ceremony. All of life is sacred. All of life is holy. And I understood where it came from.
A few weeks ago, I was in my car driving, and it was just like a flash of knowing that came to me. It probably was an ancestor who thought I was ready for me to understand it. But growing up, I had two very different parents, okay, and one of them cultivated a sense of detachment, detachment from life, detachment from others, detachment from me. And that parent encouraged me to detach, to detach from outcome, to detach from what others would think of me. Okay, there's probably a whole story there to tell, but I'm just going to tell it this way. That was one parent.
The other parent was incredibly nostalgic, was attached to memory, so attached to memory, and I remember the parent who was not, who was about detachment, always poked at me and poked at the other parent, right, to say that this attachment you have to memory and nostalgia, it is wrong. There's something wrong with you, right?
And I remember having conversations with this parent over and over and over again, and they would tell me, don't become like them. Don't attach to things, don't attach to memory, don't attach to people, right?
And let's let go of the judgment for a moment. Right? There's no wrong or right. This parent is, I'm sure, somewhat right and somewhat wrong, and there's all this gray area. They offer a kind of truth. Both parents offered a kind of truth, but I realized that the poking at me when I was a child, when I was growing up, the demand that I not attach, that I not attach to memory, that I not be nostalgic, was a very sore and sensitive spot for me, right?
Can you imagine one parent telling you to not be like the other parent, that there was something wrong with that parent, right?
There's a lot of stories from my childhood I will tell you one day, but that flash to me, that pain that I experienced around that separation flashed to me, and I realized that I create ritual of everything to honor, to honor one of my parents, right, and to honor the pain that I felt because the other side of that pain I was… I was meant to feel that pain so that I could see the gift, and the gift of that is bringing reverence to every part of life.
So it's very strong in me, like a strong force in me, to offer reverence to everything. And that has become a channel to offer me presence with every part of my life and all the parts of the world, wherever I am, wherever I go, right, I bring deep presence to that moment, not all the time, not every day, but I do my very best, because I know that there's something there for me. There's something wholly there for me everywhere.
I may have told you this, but I recently went to the Registry of Motor Vehicles, because I had to get a new driver's license and register my car and all the things. And every time I walk into an RMV or a DMV, depending on where you are in the US, I always remind myself, love is in this room. Love is in this facility. God is in this facility. Source is in this facility.
And yes, it can be a complicated process, and it can take a lot of time, and it can be annoying, and it can be frustrating. It can be all the things, right? And yet all those people there, there is a little bit of God or love or source, compassion and forgiveness, all of it. Love moves through them.
Love doesn't just move through me because I'm very aware and present to it. Love moves through you. Love moves through everyone, even those who push love down and don't wish for it to be so present.
And so I wanted to just leave the nostalgia story with you, right? It was something that I was teased about for many decades, right? I was told to never become it, and that encouraged me to bring deep curiosity to that. And now I ritualize and bring presents to everything, right? I think of Thich Nhat Hanh when he suggests that when you're making the coffee or you're washing the dishes, just do that. Just do that, and nothing else. And I know that's hard, right?
I know it's hard for me, like I used to pride myself on being a multitasker, and now I have to, kind of like take a step back and remind myself, for example, I have a pot of chicken broth going on the stove right now, and it has allowed me to bring so much presence to my day, because it's kind of like an eight hour process, from the planning, to make it, to the cutting, to the placing everything. I boil water separately and then add it to the pot, right? To choosing the flavors and the ingredients, to nursing it while it boils and then simmers, and then deciding how long I want to let it boil till it gets that beautiful color. Like that brings so much presence to my entire day, and I ritualized that process, and I'm meant to tell you that perhaps there is a moment in your life that you take for granted. Perhaps there is something that someone teases you about, right? And I'm not a big fan of teasing. It's okay in very, very, very close relationships, but oftentimes teasing or sarcasm is saying something else, and maybe we'll get into that one day.
But there is a gift in that. There was a gift on the other side of your pain and the pain that people point out to you, there's just something there for you to look at. And maybe you've been doing that over the last couple of weeks, because, hi, we've been in this very intense time, and maybe you're still looking at it, but that's what I wanted to say to you today, and I'm just going to listen to see if there's anything else.
There is a call brewing within me to talk about relationships, to talk about relationships from the soul perspective, if we were to take the lens of soul and place them on your relationships, and maybe I'll do that in the next video, because it's a big story, it's a long story. I actually think that it's the reason I started to hear my soul 10 years ago, right?
This process of me teaching you how to hear your Soul, these stories I tell you, they all began to unfold 10 years ago when I started to hear this voice inside of me. It was what I first called an inner voice, and then it said that it was my Soul, that it was the calm and all knowing wisdom and language that surfaces from within me when I get quiet and listen. And it invited me to get quiet and listen.
And then eventually it told me it was the language of love that was buried deep within me, wishing to surface. You have this language, this voice within you, too. And sometimes we listen to it, and sometimes we don't.
I aim… endeavor to live my life listening to that voice in every moment, in every moment. I take in all the voices within, including the beautiful, brilliant mind, and I let it all settle, and then the soul guides my life, and that doesn't work for everyone. It doesn't, right?
Because some people want you to move quickly and act fast, but the soul is slow and steady and confident, right? And I'm just realizing now that, like this soul's voice, I often thought it was representative of the love that my mother showed me, and it is right, it totally is, and also the way the soul can bring in all the voices get calm and quiet, surface wisdom, embodied wisdom from a detached, objective place, right? Sometimes that feels like my father, that definitely feels like my dad, too. So I'm a little bit of both. I'm a little bit of all.
But listen to your soul. Your soul will help you see the shift that's happening for you. Your soul will help you see the purpose on the other side of your pain. Your soul will help you feel and excavate your deepest pain. Your soul will help you make meaning of what you haven't been able to understand previously.
And then there are moments when your soul will say you don't need to know what it means. You don't need to know why. You just don't. You just need to feel it and integrate it and allow it and then move on to the next thing. And I think that's that's been interesting for me particular over the last couple of weeks.
And maybe you're experiencing this too, where you'll have moments of intense emotion, and you'll understand where that emotion comes from and what it's about, and then you'll have other moments when a wave will come over you. And I've had several in the last couple of weeks, where I'll just start crying and I won't understand exactly why. And some parts of me know that when I'm about to enter ceremony, I can feel the energy of the participants and I can feel the emotion. So some parts of me know when it's that, and other parts of me know that it's just some emotion that wishes to release without some big story, right?
I can help you do that one on one, if you want to hear your soul's voice, if you want to listen to that language of love and allow it to hold you, allow it to help you process what's going on in your life.
I offer three different types of sessions. I have a soul ancestor session, where we sit with my soul and the ancestors and you get clarity on something you're moving through right now.
I offer kundalini shakti energy transmissions, where I help you unblock chakras, blocks or emotions in certain places, so that you can allow life force and love force energy to move through you.
And then I also offer soul counseling sessions where we're just talking. It's a conversation, and I take you through soul voice practices so you can hear your wisdom, not mine, yours, because everything you're looking for outside of you is right there within you, and it's only upon you to surface it.
I'll leave links to all that stuff down in the description, and that feels like plenty for today.
Thank you so much for being with me on this sort of cloudy, dreary day with my chicken stock/broth on the stove.
I really appreciate you, and know that I'm just so glad that you're here, and I promise I will be back again very, very soon. Bye, bye.”
Resonance Themes for the week beginning April 2, 2025
This write up is a guided story and summary of what feels most resonant in the now based on my clairvoyant gifts, multidimensional messages, and ongoing studies in Ancestral Reverence, Mayan Cosmology, Human Design, Gene Keys, Western Astrology, Lunar Cycle Study, Soul Attunement and the Soul's Voice, Receptive Living, the Embodied Masculine & Feminine Polarities, and Deep Stillness in Meditation.
Today is 4 Kan in the Mayan Sacred Calendar. Kan is the energy of your life force, the serpent that moves from your base up your spine and out your crown, the life force that converts into love force energy and calls in all the love. The sacred number 4 is the power of the elements and the strength of the physical. Together, there is a lot of power in today, a lot of energy to support your transcendence, to support the breath of fresh air that you are allowing to flow through and out of you now.
