The Conscious Daydream

Eclipse Into Your Daydream Event

The Conscious Daydream hosted their first event on March 25th for the Libra/Aries Full Moon Eclipse. Andrea & Melody reflect on the happenings of the event and what all they enjoyed. A huge shout out to all of our vendors for bringing the vibe and contributing their talents towards cultivating a sacred space for all to enjoy. Gratitude for the experience to connect with all of our Daydreamers! A Women’s Only Event: Goddess Temple is currently in the process of manifesting. Stay tuned for details! 

Tarot & Oracle

In this episode, Andrea and Melody discuss their thoughts on the use of Oracle and Tarot Decks, the wisdom shared with each pull of a card, and the importance of diving into the inner realm. Two cards are drawn from the Animal Spirit Oracle Deck to deliver a guided message to our Daydreamers. The first card pulled is the Moth - this card discusses the importance of owning your path and not wishing anything to be a different way but working with the tools you have been given at this moment. The second card is the Mouse. This card talks about being nervous and trying to control your outer environment, again needing to address and take care of your inner reality. These cards are further discussed as a theme that the collective may be feeling at this time, as well as our take on the wisdom shared through this modality of tuning inward. We hope these messages resonate with our daydreamers and that there is a takeaway that can better clarify what you are feeling at this time on your journey. 

Expectations

Our expectations can prevent us from experiencing the gifts and blessings that surround us. We tend to get into our heads about where we think we should be or what we should have in comparison to society's and our peers' programming. It's good to have goals, but when we put pressure on ourselves and the future we think we should have, it tends to get in the way of seeing what is going well for us. 
Being grounded in who you are and what you have and truly accepting your limitations as powerful tools can offer insight into where you are and how you can navigate moving forward. Every struggle that you experience is actually blessing your character with more strength, resilience, and power to evolve and inspire others along the way.  

Falling for Potential

Light workers have a tendency to be the savior, the guide & the sacrifice. But as we move into the age of Aquarius the focus has shifted from “what am I doing for the other” to “what am I doing for myself & the for the whole of humanity”? Falling in love with the potential of who someone could be, puts you into the savior role. It is not your responsibility or mission to save your romantic partner. A healthy partnership should be two cups overflowing into the “relationship cup” to create enjoyment, sensuality & harmony.  Which will naturally contribute to each individual’s evolution. To help someone is to show them how to help themselves, and if someone is not willing to put in the work then asking for your perspective will only drain your energy. Learning when to lead by example and when to take a step back from someone else’s challenges, out of self love & respect for the lessons one can only learn on their own accord. 

Learning to Let Go

Most of us are familiar with the phrase "letting go". But what does that term truly mean? Often times its not easy, but necessary to leave what weights you down. Melody and Andrea discuss their experience with "letting go" and how they've had to navigate the ups and downs. We are the narrator to our own story in this lifetime, and we choose our dream. The story must be written by the artist (you) and it wants to be told. Letting go is easy once you give yourself permission to feel, accept, and forgive. Free your mind and your space. The weight isn't yours to carry. 

Protecting Your Energy - The How To's

Protecting your energy is a subject matter that is often talked about among Empaths and Light Workers. People, places, objects, environments - everything carries an energy field with it, uplifting your Soul or draining your entire Being. There doesn't seem to be much of an in-between. Some things just cannot be avoided; therefore, awareness and practice help us stay in our sovereignty to maintain a healthy equilibrium and/ or happiness level. 
Andrea and Melody go into their personal experience of what it means to protect their energy and the different modalities they use that work for them. Of course, this will resonate differently with everyone, depending on your zodiac sign and your preferences regarding what you're experiencing and what you feel you need to ensure safety and comfort on an ethereal level. 
Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but it is felt on many levels, and it is up to the interpreter how they would like to manipulate the energies to either be softer or deal with the incoming battling tides. Offering awareness to any situation is the first step to gaining more control over your own experience because, ultimately, you are the only one you have any control over. It isn't the people around you or your environment but how you receive the experience. This philosophical topic takes practice and patience to gain mastery over oneself. Maintaining peace within your heart and mind can be an exciting discovery. Not allowing everything and everyone to have power over you or gain a reaction from you that you're not necessarily proud of. Take your power back. Protect your energy. And choose what you do next from a place of loving awareness. 

Melodic Meditation

This short musical track was created to relax the listener into meditation. Here is your permission and your opportunity to put down what you carry. Be still and know. 
Sound has been known to be a great healer. When chanting the sound om, we align our bodies to match the natural frequency of our planet, which is 432 hertz. When we sing to bring ourselves and others closer to God and the Divine, again we are in a natural state of healing. We are human beings, not human doings. Allow yourself to breathe and to dig deeper into your organic essence of existing. Enjoy the air dancing in and out of your lungs as you inhale and exhale. Know that you are Love, and you are also loved. The Universe holds you as being precious. You are an integral part of this human experience. 
Whoever you currently think you are... thank you. 

Death

Something most Westerners have an issue discussing is the fact that we all die. Death is a messy subject and certainly isn't the most popular thing to say on a first date or when hanging out with a new group of people. Although the secret is no secret at all, Americans treat death as something that is taboo and ultimately avoided. 
In this episode, Andrea and Melody go into the details of death meditation, the importance of facing this morbid fact, and why death can serve as a liberation when used as a conscious tool to redefine how you're living your life. If you got the news that you only have 24 hours left to live, how would that affect how you went about your day? Would you relish the life you created or wish you had done things differently? Would you treat people differently? Why do we tend to act as if we'll live forever? And how would your life change if you thought about dying every day? Philosophers have discussed all fears rooted in the number one fear of dying. Suppose you're no longer afraid of detaching from this human experience, and you free yourself from lingering fears that would usually hold you back from creating and experiencing your daydream(s). How would your life be different from what it is at this moment? 
Life is happening now, not tomorrow, not yesterday: now. Death is also happening now. Which one will you choose? As for me, I choose to live fully in the direction of my wildest daydream because this moment could be my last. So connect, love, enjoy, and celebrate - as if your life depends on it. 

Meditation: The Experience & The Benefits

Before the creation of The Conscious Daydream was born, it was imagined. Andrea and Melody have been on the path to cultivating a conscious community through Podcasts and event gatherings for almost three years now. Before the first introductory episode was recorded, Andrea invited Melody for a private tea ceremony to set the intentions and invoke Universal support. Andrea and Melody describe the ceremony: what they experienced and observed through this modality of manifestation. 
Meditation and sacred activities such as yoga, tea ceremony, journaling, and breathwork are vital to our spiritual growth and mental health, along with the importance of involving oneself in community groups and why it is essential to share our spiritual path with others.
Sitting still and focusing on breathing can be very challenging for many people who do not have a lot of practice in this field. The beginning stages can cause frustration or sadness, depending on how deep the person can go into it. Many focus on distracting themselves from their thought patterns instead of diving into them. "The mind is a terrible master but a wonderful servant." However, work is involved to achieve this internal peace and organization, which can be found through meditation and prayer. Prayer is talking to God, whereas meditation is listening to God. Both are necessary to move forward on one's spiritual path. 

Are You A Good Witch Or A Bad Witch?

What is a witch? Is it a one-size-fits-all or a matter of perception? Andrea and Melody discuss what it means to be a witch from their points of view and their experience with stepping into their innate abilities to work alongside the Universe to manifest their visions of the future they intend to experience for the highest good of all involved. Historically, being a witch was anyone who stepped outside the box of what society considered the norm. If a woman used red berries to make lipstick, she risked being accused of witchcraft and sorcery for the reaction men might have to her accentuated beauty. In today's world, being a witch and using "witchcraft" is often related to Hollywood: casting spells, having a back cat, and using magical powers to control your desired outcome at the expense of others. That might be true for some, but that's not the subject we discuss here. Being a witch is stepping into your empowerment. Not allowing anyone or anything to dictate or change who you are uniquely here to be by learning what you like, clearly setting goals, and never settling for less than that. Being a witch is knowing your Creator, which can be identified as God, the Universe, Jesus, Krishna, Ganesh, Buddha, none of these, or all of the above; knowing what works for your belief system, staying true to that, and honoring your chosen path. 
The discussion of Andrea and Melody's personal history of stepping into the magical version of themselves is also covered, and moving through that transition from the mundane to the infinite was discovered and traveled.
