I don’t live my life thinking a lot about money, trying to ‘get’ more money, or not having enough money yet I am not motivated by money either. The act of receiving more money does not make me rush to hurry up and finalize my books or open up my school. I can’t remember the last time I worried about money because having money is an intimate frequency and energy of FREEDOM. You have to break the frequencies of constantly penny-pinching, being stingy, allowing how much money you have in the bank to dictate your mood or living afraid to buy the very things that you need that will expand or evolve you, which is not the same thing as shopping all the time as a coping mechanism for being human, incurring consumer debt or being irresponsible and reckless with your money. And your life force will never thrive when you are a slave or prisoner to money.

The Practical and Spiritual Journey to Making More Money —You Must Invoke Your Warrior Energy

You have to look at earning money like a game and enjoy growing your money and playing the game or else you never win. Not just saving or hoarding it away in your bra but allowing your money to work for you while you sleep like putting it in stocks. You have to look into investments and not be afraid of accumulating “healthy debt” and learn to move your money around in order to grow it. Look to investing part of your earnings into different funds, even if it is just cutting back on buying coffee and putting that money you would have paid for a daily coffee into a savings that will accrue and be used to invest in the future. If you already have cash flow, getting rental property to airbnb or sell (everyone I know that is quietly wealth-oriented owns at least 2-3 homes) which can be overwhelming to think about when living pay check-to-pay check but just beginning to think about how you can earn more money on your own money passively gets the ball rolling like opening up a laundry mat, building it up and selling it in the future for huge profit. Laundry mat ownership is such a fast lucrative business, just like what you see in the hood on movies. Or buy a raggedy house, build it up and sell it for a higher cost and incredible profit. Some of you straight and bi women entrepreneurs who are ready for good lovers must find love and attraction with lovers who are builders and handymen and can help to upscale and modernismze your home that you can then resale for great profit and stop messing with dusties who have zero skill sets and create more stress on your life. 🙏🏿 And when you live a highly stressful, parasympathetic, flight or fight life, the first thing you lose is your sexual desire or libido i.e. your umlimited creative power. No thank you!

If you have a spiritual business like me, you can do deals underneath the table but also work towards an LLC to legitimize your company which gives you tax breaks and allows you toearn more money in the future. If you have a spiritual business like me as magical spiritual woman, the power move is to attract someone willing to invest in you and your work as a start-up….. and cherish this person, love this person with all your heart, hips and soul, adore them deep and true, because this person, this angelic being, this God, is saving you massive stress and headache. Their presence in your life serves a larger purpose —you must help them to understand this because our world teaches us to be so fearful and suspicious of being helped or helping someone rather than gracious and honored. Too many people are missing out on great blessings of interdependence because they live afraid and suspicious of the big heart of another human. So sad that many amazing people are stuck in their little corners and missing out on healing, thriving, and experiencing the gifts and talents of others because of how we have been conditioned to perceive meeting one another’s needs and desires.

**This is not the same thing as looking for a handout, walking around like the world owes you something or hoping someone will help you because you tell a victimization story. It is about being mature and resourceful and consciously manifesting what is needed and not simply what would be cool or cute. But not every woman is ready or qualified for the aforementioned experience because you do have to develop your skills that will be greatly nourishing, nurturing, decompressing, or beneficial in other ways to another.

Never lose the boundaries that you are running a business albeit a spiritual one but still a business. Stay devoted and disciplined, both are essential. Work towards hiring people who can help you scale and grow eventually.

The Spiritual Journey to Making More Money—You Must Invoke Your Lover

The key to having more money is to learn to surrender and trust and truly allow the universe to be your provider, which is not an intellectual idea but a frequency of feminine energy. This is less about gender and more about the willingness to live a little bit beyond the egoic surface layer of reality of urgency that tells you to hurry and produce, to hoard or take or trigger you to constantly need to check off a to-do list, always needing to plan or to cross your t’s and dot your i’s which will allow you to buy that nice house and cute car eventually, but could greatly inhibit your energy from flowing where you never really can feel the joy of a simple moment pulse up your spine because you live in stress and overwork for external things that never make you fully truly happy.

No matter what stage of life you are, the undercurrent of your reality must feel like more relaxation and freedom if you want to have more money but not exhaust yourself in rigorous pursuit and constant labor for it.

I had to learn to draw in the frequency of freedom—to laugh at myself, to play, to rest, to relax, to do silly shit like twirling throughout my day —when life was very stressful, drama was high, and money was low. Neighbors would see me twirling. I would sometimes twirl for customers whose shopping totals were over 200 dollars. Because changing frequencies or weaving new realities is most potent when life is hard. You have to discover strategic ways to do the things you really want to do in life but was told you couldn’t afford. You must also have this hunger and desire to play the game of life to win while laughing at yourself along the way as you refine more and more and develop intimacy with the currencies of relaxation, love and freedom, which naturally include having more money.

But do not just copy and paste and take from others. Give. —India Ame’ye

Keep me away from the wisdom which does not cry, the philosophy which does not laugh and the greatness which does not bow before children.

Controversial take:

a good sense of how clear and powerful your own sensing is - how fast and how well and how easily your body, your mind and spirit create an inflammation to the over-culture and what we have been told about the society and our lives, stories and places.

Women, who have been through hell, in deep caves in their life early on, or have had some traumatic experience : have already been incubated with dis-illusionment about which others cannot yet see. It is almost as if, they, by a thrust have been pushed to see the stark truth about life, living, about how relationships function, about how insidious the functioning of things most people just gloss over is.

These people might try to envelope themselves in the cushy blankets of the illusion of normalcy again but they know it is not true and what is normal to others seems right out of the left field for them.

Any woman, who can now see herself as not just another peg in a square hole, is a seed to the future we can create, the seers, the leaders, the poets, the healers, the scientists, the story tellers. Their bodies, the mind, their vision is what will sustain and nourish us and most importantly themselves.

The most important thing is, the work we have to do lies in - coming out of this cave, they have to listen to their mind, bodies and spirits, they have to protect the flame inside, they have to create and dream about things others can't see yet, and create with their passion, unhindered from the world and society, and most importantly fiercely guard themselves from falling in line with the rest of the world. Be fierce and loving and their tribe will find them.

But first, they must live.

it is easy to be good in this world because we all are lazy and inconsistent. The people who get ahead are the ones who are ready to do the hard thing for 5 mins more than the ones who give up.

my love, if you struggle with low self esteem or imposter syndrome. This is my grown woman advice to you: a starter.

Your brain lies to you, because it has been programmed by the constant repeating of the mantra of"not-good-enough-never-be-loved-i-must-prove-myself etc." this is first thing you view everything by. This is your current lens of viewing the world. A filter.

What we want to do is shift this lens into something better. Another mantra. Until you do that nothing can change because you can't see yourself do it and achieve it.

(meditation does just this - you can observe your own biases and your own filter if you sit still and let them come at you.)

So, the basic format is you start with something small and enjoyable. If you follow me here- start with

I am dedicated to improving my life.

I am my own responsibility.

I have a beautiful life.

I get to live with ease and with beauty.

I am so loved in many ways.

I am assertive and important.

Simple thing, which does not trigger an alarm of "this is not me". Slowly you'll see it come up as easily as a put yourself down thought and replace it.

Keep replacing each thought with something more aligned with the way you want to see yourself. It is a small step but it shifts something important.

Your life is way too important to live in the dark. You are not here to suffer my love. Start living.

[artfulascension]

great suffering is a direct turning point to transformation.

I think what anon was asking, and I have the same question, is what do you mean by “deep sense of spirituality, a homecoming”. What you mean by organized religion is fairly obvious.

Can you give an example of homecoming? Of deep spirituality? What does this look like in practice?

Homecoming: In a deep dark moonless pit in night of desperation and loss of everything you know, something sustains you. Something which does not have an appetite for greed or for satiety from validation, it cannot be banished by the outer culture or by artificial emotions.

People who have been through know that it is the rupture in the fabric of what we know - revealing what we do not yet have a language to explain.

This sense of spirituality is not taught or transmitted. It is born with a difficult labour or a sudden quickening, almost a movement where the spirit is kicked into remembering a primordial more advanced form of life.

This is all I can say to you for this wisdom is not something restricted to a select few. It's present in you too. Seek it more intensely and personally. When the time is right, persist some more and let it appear to you. You are allowed to question it, but when it quenches you, you have to respect by following what you are being taught to do.

This is all I can say. It is a gift. It can only be accepted with gratitude. We cannot hurry it into being or delay when it wants to be born. May you and me and all of us be graced by it.

Sending you my love and deepest respect.

Instead of buying $100 creams and $1000 surgeries to stay young, I am exercising, stretching, eating a lot of carbs, leafy greens, citrus, and cheese and going on long walks in the forest. I'll be wrinkly but I'll fucking feel good and I'm fine with that. Fuck off with your anti aging products and obsession with thinness. And the next 20 yr old who says I look "young for my age" is getting challenged to arm wrestling

[artfulascension]

Ahhhh! Such a reminder of joy! The beauty and simplicity and the completeness of each moment. There is nowhere to be, there is nowhere to hurry. Savour this moment. Such a force of beauty, a breath. Nothing to hold, nothing to keep, only to experience.

Beloved, your power will be in remembering that there is so much deliciousness, beauty, and opportunity present even in a messy chaotic world. —India Ame’ye

Here, my darling. Sending much love and blessings your way.

[artfulascension]

Knowing you could have it if you wanted but not knowing if you want it at all

[artfulascension]

To live your life in your full bloom you will have to disappoint people a little. Give yourself grace for that. They don't have to understand everything. Give others grace and allow them to bloom too in a way that allows you the freedom to be either with them and without them. Do not hold things with your knuckles white. Do not bite the sides of your spiritual tongue. Be grateful for the love and teachings. But be independent and have a spine of steel for your own rules and discipline for the map you create for your life.

See how avenues open up for you, as you relax into your own life.
