In this episode, I talk about infernal guardians (aka guardian demons) and share with you what I’ve learned about them and what they can help you with!

In this episode, I share with you the mindset shift that helped me make the largest leap forward in strengthening and honing my abilities.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT trespass on private properties to investigate without getting permission from owners of the area. That should be common sense, but unfortunately it’s not. Respect should be your first thought and that just isn’t respectful.

In this episode, I share tips on how to improve your intuition and spiritual abilities in general that I personally utilize and have found super helpful!

A big topic with lots of things to discuss, so let’s get into the “tea”!

Discretion is advised:

In this episode I mention rape, pedophilia, murder, sexual assault and abuse as well as emotional abuse. If that’s something that may be triggering to you or it makes you uncomfortable, please listen at your own discretion.

In this episode, I discuss what happens to evil people after they die, due to a TikTok on the same subject going semi-viral last week. 

I discuss the following things within the episode:

If someone does something evil, what happens after they die?

Does “good” and “bad” exist?

What do you mean by “consensual experiences”?

What do you mean when you say “talk with Lucifer” 

If lucifer isn’t bad, why does he punish?

What is considered ‘evil’?

Would the ‘evil’ person only be punished in the next lifetime rather than the current one?

"So the bad things that have happened in my life are because I did bad things or was a bad person in another life?"

“This is damaging; for anyone interpreting this as “oh, i got raped because I was evil in the past” No, that is bullshit”

"What if someone does bad things but feels remorseful and does their best to correct that mistake during their lifetime?"

"Is killing yourself considered bad?"

In this episode, I share the information that I've gathered from the beings that I've talked to, about soulmates and twin-flames and what they are. 

Discretion is advised:

In this episode I mention the use of my own blood in ritual (very briefly and non-graphically); if that’s something that makes you uncomfortable, please listen with awareness.
