Hello and welcome to a thorny banger! This is honestly a very tricky topic to discuss as most folks can have a lot of built-up trauma around money, systemic power struggles, and perceptions with income classes that’s just got it good. As much as spirituality and Love steeps all things, very “societal” constructs: like classism and privilege are these very real karmic-imprints/thought-forms/collectively-shared-baggage that can’t be just philosophized away but is something that needs to be seen with utmost clarity, compassion and alchemy. A very human integration to say, spiritual experience.

Consider this podcast episode a primer to reflecting about one’s own privilege, how that shows up “karmically” for different folks, and how money-position-power can be something that is wielded with utmost compassion (while also clearing the imprints of how previous owners of these things, or nakagawian/nakasanayan ways of doing things) can also really offer a giant shift and deep deep freedom.

This ep is partially in taglish!, some cussing too

ANNOUNCEMENT: The podcast will be also be releasing every other week now to give more space to collaborate with guests and to sustain the depth and quality of our episodes. If y’all noticed some of the recent episodes released are also longer! (upto 2hours!) so do know we want to offer long-term value to our community and thus the change of pace :)

Ep covers:

• more comfort but also more karmic cache?, isolation
• unequal capacities to do community work
• spiritual pracitices born out of certain kinds of populations, economics
• intersectional privilege x non-duality and non-judgement
• princess~royalty imprints & slumming
• shaming/masking one’s own privilege/truth, performance/presentation of rank
• emotional skills from impoverishment
• desire for achievements to be mine, desperation
• privilege for good***
• spirituality is a privilege! you can earn/build up privilege

• define what privilege, true luxury-abundance is for you
• what do you actually want?
• fulfillment is an inside job
• filipino privilege “3rd world” but? Loved
• closing

Hi! This episode doesn't have an ep intro so that it's optimized to be looped when you're sleeping or resting, or when you feel like you want to actively journey/visualize reclaiming your own energy.

This is specifically designed to help folks recharge, outside the bounds of time, as well as to tap to their original frequency, supportive energies, and their innate magick, dimensions/levels/versions that are wildly and innately magickal.

This is a multi-layered recording so it is more enjoyable with headphones/earphones. Feel free to "lean into" whatever energy bed/ energies feel like serve you best.

It’s been a while since we had a magick episode so let’s do comeback with a banger: Let’s Interrogate What Really Is The Source of Magick, and what is really holding you back from having an infinite tap to it? Is it a thing you buy off the shelf? Something specially gifted? Something unconditionally and totally faced? Are we sapped of it by the dredges of bad thought-loops, and vampiric societal assumptions? What does it really mean to be aligned with your magick or to become magickal? Why is the Summary Full of Questions and Interrogations? 

Go find out:

• What is Magick? 
• What’s the Loophole? What’s that Really? (+Filipino)
• Would you bend reality without losing your mind?
• Do you want to have a direct link to infinity?
• What are your reasons for asking that?
• What’s your crowbar?
• What is it yanking open?
• Where did it die? Where did you sell it?
• Are you begging someone to see you?
• Have you ever put a reality in danger?
• Would you be willing to die? “Finding the Fck Out” ?
• What Miracles have happened to you? 
• What is the quality of your Thought forms?  
• The Dream of Limitations
• Is that Really a Leap of faith? 
• Did you try That out? Did you Ride that? 
• Is that Necessary? Where? Huh? 
• Omni-efficient?
• Who is considered an enemy? underserving?

Continuing an old series (since feb pa!) — the creative process as spiritual discipline. In this episode we’re talking about how to feel very enabled and liberated to translate our curiosities and creativities in between creative mediums and expressions. We’ll talk about how that might just bust you out of a creative rut, and also activate parts of you that have felt dormant or under stimulated and raring to be expressed and wonderfully integrated. We also walk ourselves through some simple processes and frameworks that would help enable us to straddle different modes of creativity easefully and talk about cool prompts and questions that would help frame this creativity as a spiritual process within itself.

If you tend to have all the hobbies, or are wildly interested in different things and trying to make sense of your multi-faceted creative spirit, then this is the podcast for you! If on the other hand, you’re still kind of wading through the idea of trying vastly different things and mediums, then this is STILL the podcast for you (HAHA).

(This ep was recorded feb 2024)

Covers:

• Intro, total theater
• mastery from a comfort zone translated for a new thing
• leading interest with fun, genuine curiosity, a heightened sensitivity 
• become a better person? your art grows???
• being Total in one’s process, all encompassing and all involved
• permission to be all out, weird?, deeply shameless ideas that incite and excite, or provokes question
• art as a gift, as an act of devotion, an everyday/folk creativity in life. it’s okay for life to be richer, and to be more personal, authentic
• processwork’s sense channels, explore other modes of being
• experientials and learning by doing (pedagogy) 
• demo lab: heartbreak, sacred ask: can we genuinely meet a question?
• demo maria: game design, demo sample: international cooking/traveling, costumes to pass as...
• exploring your edges, circumambulating a theme/question
• bravery and honesty in process,.. we need everybody

If you’ve ever wanted to hear us walk around the topic of “manifesting”, or in desperate need of a miracle, then this is the episode for you! thanks for being in resonance, with such generous realities.

I CANT BELIEVE I HAVEN’T HAD AN EPISODE ON THIS. In this ep of Integrated Awakenings Maria covers a few unexpected examples of how spirits/god/love “sees you” and your truth. Often times, a radical self-knowing and acceptance, is cushioned with out accountability, or the emphasis of being able to advocate your gifts and your work. Maria covers the necessary labor of coming into really knowing oneself, and finding the language of temperance to meaningfully participate in the world around you. They also cover some recent collective initiations around the HARA-it’s potent shadows, as well as being able to temper it’s teethful strength with the heart of the maiden-empress. (taurus scorp axis). If you’ve been needing to resource and root back to yourself lately then this is the ep.

Covers:

• intro
• ‘something majorly wrong about me’/ the curse is a gift you must learn to wield
• maria example & chaos
• pwede mo naman hanapin sarili mo pero kasama mo naman sarili mo parati
• the most expensive thing you can do, is what feels like play to you 
• unsung traits: invisibility, plainness, simple beauty
• necessary temperance and advocating for ones gifts
• who am i when the social goop is so AMORPHOUS?
• who am i when i am so Multiple?
• what if you just go Total? Absolute
• ritualized killing, violence, wow I have violence too? death energies…
• heat,hate, heat wave, detox, strength & temperance.
• heart-warrior archetypes, matriarchs and mama mary
• clear seeing, heart led, but your will?

In this solo-cast of Integrated Awakenings, we’ll be covering very useful developmental concepts with regards to how and why parents seem to be such a source of disappointment, trauma and unhealthy patterns we bring even to old age. Is adulthood always marked by this loss of innocence? Does anybody ever really grow up? What if our parents still act like children, what grief is that now? This episode offers a spiritual dimension to the natural projection and individuation of the psyche, and how our early symbols of divine mother/father/parent/love always have a fall from grace when we realize their very present humanity. 

If you find yourself dealing trapped in cyclical parental dynamics (from any end), or meeting the grief of adulthood, then this episode will surely offer you holistic insight. 

Covers: 

• intro, natural rhythms, natural projections
• fantasy, unan/uni/pillow as early childhood consolation
• there’s nothing wrong with projection/pedestaling/mythic love it’s not All of Love though
• release all judgement with regards to pace to when this happens
• connect this to more journey/depth podcast eps that connected with inner child, divine femme/masc process
• the masculine and vulnerable anger, twin faces of anger and depression
• crisis and thunder as a calm opportunity for change
• the grief of the lack of eldership/wisdom keepers on a societal level, generational disappointment
• complex mom story and how it’s okay to be a bad parent 
• lack of language, coexisting with the dream/ephemeral and the reality/imperfection

In this new podcast episode we have as our guest, Nix, a practicing korean folk-shaman and anthropologist sitting us down and easefully combing for us the core differences in thinking around western and eastern mystical-spiritual practices. We have a holistic discussion on how western philosophy may relate to things via pictures (the snapshot of a situation - eg: a tarot spread) versus the dynamic and relational philosophy of taoist-confuscian-shamanic iching reading of the same situation. ( a moving picture, eg: fengshui, an iching cast). 

In this episode she also shares some of her unique practices, as someone who has grown up in the Philippines and is also a considered a “feminine” practitioner of “masculine” disciplines/texts, AS WELL AS other significant practices such as exorcisms, numerology, dream interpretation and modernizations of these practices and more. 

If you’ve ever felt confused by traditional chinese medicine, want to reconnect to the energies and general philosophies that are the bedrock of east asian mysticism and medicine then this is a great place to start! (A good grasp of western tarot though would be best) I can also vouch that nix emits such a grounded and clear state of being that was such a joy to be able to share with the rest of the audience. Please enjoy!

PS: this is in taglish, also we talk slightly fast with dense info so feel free to pause very generously

Covers:

• Intro, backgrounder on Nix’ experience
• korean shamanism is more traditional since neo-confucianism didnt happen in korea (too strict about gender roles instead of it being symbolic)
• collective > individual, re-balancing a system/body harmoniously
• relational eastern astrology vs western astrology
• 4 elements vs 5 phases (even vs odd, static vs changing) 
• western one life and swift results vs reincarnation (eg: bonsai)
• stills/snapshots vs a movie
• how the elements are different between systems 
• emotions with regards to organs and temperature
• spleen, horror and ancestors, indian and sanskrit influences
• diabetes viewed in west vs east
• dreamwork, special dreams, kitsune etc
• attracting spirits and ancestor worship, animal associations
• sigil craft, warnings against cults, eternal change, syncretism
• questions > comfortable answers, numerology and puns
• collective reading (with a demo constructive and destructive spread)
• not! final thoughts
