Oracle Mornings: Spiritual Reflections for Beginners Exploring Intuition & Oracle Cards

Has an idea been quietly knocking on your heart lately? Maybe it comes through in meditation, on a walk, or first thing in the morning, and it feels a little too exciting to be real. In this episode, we sit with that feeling. Amanda shares a personal moment from her own morning journaling, when a new project idea arrived and she turned to her cards for reflection, not for a yes or a no, but for va...

This week's episode opens with an honest moment: Amanda shares why she gave herself permission to skip Thursday's episode, and why protecting your energy is sometimes the most aligned choice you can make, even when you love what you're building. From there, we step into the energy of July, a month so many are calling a turning point. Rather than asking us to push harder, July invites us to slow do...

This Monday morning oracle reading features not one, not two, but three cards — because sometimes the deck has a lot to say. Pulling from the Spirit Animal Pocket Oracle by Colette Baron-Reid , Amanda works with Hawk Spirit, Squirrel Spirit, and Mouse Spirit. Each card carries its own message, and together they build something really beautiful: first, pay attention to the signs and synchronicities...

Ever have an idea hit you on a walk, in the shower, or driving in the car, and then by the time dinner rolls around, you've already talked yourself out of it? Amanda's pulling over in a parking lot to talk about exactly that. She's sitting with a new idea of her own (one that beautifully marries her real estate background with her spiritual work) and noticing how fast the what-ifs try to shut it d...

This week's reading landed in the most beautiful, timely way. We just passed the summer solstice, and the card that came through is the Air Guardian from Kyle Gray's Angels & Ancestors Oracle Cards , with the message: shift your perception.

Have you ever been sitting in a perfectly good moment — coffee in hand, everything around you looking fine — and still felt this quiet, inexplicable sense that something is just... off? Not sad. Not anxious. Just off. And you couldn't explain it even if you tried. In this episode, Amanda gets into exactly that feeling. The one that doesn't come with a clear reason. The one that shows up even when...

This Monday, we're pulling from The Starseed Oracle by Rebecca Campbell , and the card that came through is Earth Pulsing. It's a card about the rhythmic pulse of the Mother, the seasons, the tides, the deep and ancient connection we all have to the Earth beneath us. And honestly? For a lot of us, that connection has been quietly severed. Not because we did anything wrong, but because life got lou...

Most of us have heard that we should be grateful. Keep a gratitude journal. List three things every morning. Look for the good. But what if gratitude is actually more than a habit? What if it's a frequency — an energetic state you can tune into that changes not just how you feel, but what you're able to receive? In this special one-year anniversary episode of Oracle Mornings, we go deeper into the...

This week's episode feels like it was meant to land on Memorial Day — and maybe it was. Amanda pulls the I Connect with the Strength and Wisdom of My Ancestors card from The Law of Positivism Healing Oracle by Shireen Oberg, and the message is one that hits deep: you're not just healing for yourself. You're healing for every generation before you, and every generation still to come. In this episod...

This week on Oracle Mornings, Amanda pulls a shadow card — The Great Serving from The Starseed Oracle by Rebecca Campbell . Shadow cards don't show up often, but when they do, they're here to surface what's blocking love from coming in.

For everyone who needed to hear: you...

Is there someone in your life you genuinely care about — but every time you spend time with them, you come away completely wiped out? You're not imagining it. And nothing is wrong with you. You're just sensitive to energy. And that sensitivity, as much as it can feel like a burden, is actually one of the signs that you're spiritually awake and becoming more so. In this episode, we talk about what...

This one feels especially meaningful — the Rose card arrived as our collective message for May, and honestly, it couldn't feel more right. Rose, from the 13 Holy Nights Oracle by Lara J Day , carries the energy of courageous love. Not just romantic love, but love in all its forms: love for yourself, your family, your friends, the stranger at the grocery store, and life itself. The card reminds us...

Have you been in a season where the things that used to make you feel connected, like pulling an oracle card, journaling, slowing down, just stopped? Not because of one big thing.

If you've seen Wicked recently (or if the music has been living rent-free in your head like it has for so many of us) then you already know something about what it feels like to carry a story that was never fully yours. To be misunderstood. To hold the weight of other people's expectations while your own truth quietly waits for you to catch up to it. This week, Amanda is pulling from the Wizard of...

This week's reading came straight from Amanda's morning dog walk through the woods, and it felt like the perfect backdrop for the message that came through. The card is "Dreaming / Dream Big" from the Divine Dog Wisdom Cards by Barb Horn and Randy Crutcher.
