This episode marks the beginning of a regular astrological check-in series.
Recently, I got sucked into the astrology vortex and once you're in there's no going back.
I've been following S.J. on Twitter for a while now and am always impressed with his takes on the movement of the spheres.
We're going to get together every 28 days or so to discuss what's going on astrologically and what we can expect energetically.
Happy imagining!

I've been having a blast reading and hearing about all of the amazing things you're wishing for.
I especially love to hear stories about people walking into their dream life and dream scenarios.
I've also been getting emails, texts and calls from people wondering why the things, relationships and scenarios theyโve been imagining havenโt come true...yet.
When you start dealing with questions like โwhy, when, how and whereโ youโre most likely hanging out, or at least flirting with, our good friends doubt and impatience.
Those two, amirite?
Hereโs the thingโฆrealizing your imagination literally precedes materiality isnโt something your rational and analytical mind wants to hear, let alone deal with..
Itโs way easier to disregard the truth and go back to experiencing reality the way youโre accustomed to experiencing it.
Itโs safer.
Or at least it feels safer.
So you throw up threshold guardians in the form of emotions, relationships and thoughts to protect yourself.
Ultimately, thatโs what doubt and impatience are.
Itโs you trying to shift responsibility back towards the outside world and circumstances (the world of your senses) rather than the real world, your internal world, aka your wonderful human imagination.
Another thing thatโs been coming up in conversations is something Iโm all too familiar with and therefore is a subject thatโs particularly close to my heart.
It is an amazing fact of life that you can live the life of your dreams.
Itโs even more amazing that you can drop your fears, insecurities, self-limiting beliefs and all the other BS you may have picked up over time.
What could be better?
But how do you make sure youโre not losing touch with the external world when you start crafting your new one?
Even though the yo'uโre not of this world, youโre definitely still in it.
Hereโs a couple of observations that serve as a barometer for where Iโm at when it comes to balancing my internal and external realities.
Everything is funny
Not in some insane maniacal laugh kind of way, more of a felt sense of fully perceiving the cosmic wink and joke.
If you canโt laugh at yourself, the world and other objectively hilarious situations youโre probably being too serious.
And honestly, why so serious?
(a note for people who think this means you donโt bear witness to the suffering of the world: thatโs not what iโm saying and you know it.)
You love nature
If this stuff is really clicking I guarantee youโll feel an inextricable pull towards the outdoors.
Nature grounds us and reminds us why weโre here.
More importantly YOU ARE HERE, so donโt try to be somewhere else all of the time. Imagination is real and amazing and fun, but you still open your eyes everyday too.
Getting lost in the psychic and imaginal wonderland can be delightful, but remember youโre here for a reason. Try and remember what it is.
And thatโs it.

Oh boy, here we go with the religious stuff...
Here's the truth:
I've prayed when things were hard.
I've prayed when things seemed hopeless.
I've prayed for money and I've prayed for the Dolphins to win the superbowl (UGH).
But until recently I can confidently say I had no idea what praying really was or how to do it effectively.
Now I can tell you I finally understand what prayer is and how to do it. The beautiful thing is, it's not hard.
My conception of prayer is built on a simple equation:
Imagination + Faith = Prayer
But terms like imagination and faith can be nebulous and mean different things to different people. So let's define them.
By Imagination I mean anything you conceive of with your sense of "I AM." That voice in your head who you call "I."
More specifically that's the creative principle we start with to conceive of what we're praying for. Use the technique in Imaginal Techniques #1 to learn how to use this inherent power effectively and start up-leveling to better versions of yourself.
And by Faith, I just mean what Neville Goddard referred to as "loyalty to the unseen world."
As for the Law of Reversibility...the rest is explained in the episode, what you thought I was gonna write it all out?

Take it from someone who knows, itโs easy to get carried away when you start to see how imaginal acts actually work.
All of a sudden you have magical powers at your disposal.
Thatโs fucking cool.
But how do you stay grounded and make sure youโre not pushing too hard or too fast?
How do you stay humble when you know everything youโve ever dreamed of is at your fingertips?
For me, it comes down to external support systems (friends and family) AND staying true to myself.
Having an ethical framework you carry around with you is crucial so you donโt create more harm for yourself or "others."
This life can present us with a multitude of challenges.
Ultimately, these challenges are there to help us see the opportunities that await us and to help us become the best versions of ourselves.
Remaining humble helps us communicate truths and wisdom more effectively. Humbleness is also a handy safeguard against collapsing into a negative state that holds you back from your true potential.
The other concept covered in this episode is the wisdom of stillness.
Letโs face it, I have a shitload of energy and enjoy moving it around internally and externally. So for me itโs been challenging to embrace stillness as not just a concept, but when appropriate, a way of life.
Sometimes the best thing you can do is remain perfectly still in the eye of the storm and wait for more auspicious times to move. For highly active people this can be easier said than done, but perhaps, even more important.

"I drift away to another land
Sleeping dreaming such a simple thing
I think of things that I might be
I see my name go down in history"

Welcome to the new reality where, apparently, I release a podcast six days a week...
Money. Skrilla. Dinero. Straight Cash Homie.

Where does money fit in with all this imagination stuff?
How do we start forming ethical businesses as we enter the new imaginal paradigm (yeah, it's a thing.)

I already feel dirty calling substances like LSD, Cannabis and Mushrooms โdrugsโ but hey, it gets the point across.
But how do psychedelics fit within the truth that imagination precedes materiality?
Those things are material. What gives, Noah?
Hereโs the thing. While consciousness altering substances, rituals and any other healing modality you attempt actually work, the reality is all of these things work because we imagine them to work.
Remember, stable imaginal acts become facts.
This also explains why there are so many valid paths for discovering who you are.
Be it the Christian Mystic, Sufi, Tibetan Buddhist, South American Shaman or literally any other spiritual path thatโs out there, theyโre all talking about the same thing at the end of the day, just in different imaginal languages.
Donโt let anyone tell you your way of discovering the true nature of things is wrong.
Find yourself, trust yourself and then dive in to a whole new world, Aladdin style.

Birthday Episode!
The truth that your imagination precedes materiality hits people differently.
Some intuitively understand the reality of the statement, while others glimpse it but have hard time fully grasping it, while others may actively resist the truth.
Threshold Guardians that seem to pop up most commonly for compassionate, caring and open-minded people are typically related to the suffering of others and the external world. This is understandable because suffering in the world is a) objectively bad and b) objectively preventable.
So how do we go about changing injustices in the world?
The only thing I know that works for me in terms of imagining large scale change is starting with myself.
Some may mistake imaginal acts as selfish or passive in that they donโt directly alleviate the suffering of others. This logic presupposes imaginal acts are not specifically designed to awaken you to who you really are, which is a being who is fundamentally aware that they are, in fact, everyone AND an individual at once
But when moral outrage about an objective injustice boils over into outright anger, the clarity of anger quickly changes into deluded rage.
External reality appears to be objectively real but it is primarily YOU projected outward. When you begin to see the potential growth opportunities external circumstances offer you, you're on the right track.
This doesnโt diminish the importance of bearing witness to the suffering of the world. This is a crucial step that allows you to first heal yourself, then heal the world. Itโs beautiful when the logic clicks.
Again, this concept may rub some the wrong way. A friend recently shared that someone she knows revealed a story of abuse at a spiritual organization and was told that the reason it happened was โit was her karma.,โ which is not only dumb, but wrong. This type of reckless excuse making for the suffering of others doesnโt take in to account the real reason thereโs suffering in the world.
There is suffering in the world because we suffer. When we imagine the only way to get ahead is by having others fall behind, we perpetuate an untenable situation of scarcity, fear and greed.
The good news is there is a direct path to alleviating the suffering of everyone. In linear time this path is unfolding. Remember to take care of yourself, live with an open heart, an open-mind and find others who understand the truth.

Fall In Love With Your Ideal / Attention and Relaxation / Imaginal Shortcuts / The World Of Senses
Why falling in love with what you desire is the key to realizing imagination creates reality.
The importance of being relaxed and attentive when imagining, but not freaking out about โhow you need to beโ because itโs not that hard and youโll get it.
Want a shortcut to your best life? You got it.
Donโt let the world, other people and external circumstances interfere with what you know to be true. Your imagination creates reality and your senses perceive the after effect of that truth.

This episode is for anyone who heard the last imaginal technique episode and may be encountering our good friends fear, doubt, anxiety and fear.
Did I mention fear?
These states of consciousness are all controlled by threshold guardians who are total dicks.
The good news is those ominous guardians can be conquered with relative ease.

Iโve been getting a lot of requests to share some specific imaginal techniques that have radically changed my life for the better in a very short period of time.
I can vouch for the efficacy of these techniques through direct experience, but PLEASE donโt take my word for it.
My favorite thing about these techniques is you can try them yourself to see if they work.
If they donโt, then Iโm just a nutball with a podcast who think consciousness precedes external reality. But if they do work then you got some stuff to sort out.
The basic guidelines before getting started:
Have an ethical framework or foundation you bring to your imaginal acts. Personally, I like the Golden Rule and Know Thyself as my go to ethical guidelines.
If my premise is accurate and imagination literally creates reality as we know it, thatโ gonna change your world. Be ready for that. Itโs hard to go back once youโve drunk from these waters.
Have fun, stay cool and bring love.
Thatโs it.
