 Hello, beautiful souls. Oh, no, Christy here. And I want to let you know today about some big changes in my life and how I'll be serving your moving forward. So listen carefully, because I'm going to tell you about my new nonprofit as well as an invitation for you to join Lightworkers Cafe, which is my new free membership group for Lightworkers and Starseeds. As you may know, I've been serving the Starseed community since 2015 through my YouTube channel Art of Awakening. And one thing I've become very aware of over the years is that many Starseeds struggle with a sense of spiritual loneliness. And I've noticed that it's across the board, both people who are newly awakened and those who have been walking the spiritual path for a long time, especially if you live in remote areas. It can be hard to find people who understand where you're coming from and who share your enthusiasm for the spiritual life. So back in 2018, in my local area, I started a little group for Awakened Souls. And we got together about once a month in a local cafe. And sometimes we just hang out together, but as the group grew, we started to do events like Oracle Night or inviting local healers in to speak. And it was a lot of fun. It grew like gangbusters. Some of our meetings attracted dozens of people, which for a small town in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan is a pretty strong turnout for a topic like this. So after a while, people started coming up to me and I started hearing things like, I'm so grateful for this group. I don't feel alone anymore. I've met so many new friends who get me. And this has really changed my life for the better. And so in 2019, I started experiencing a health crisis and ended up passing the torch for that group along to another person. And it kind of fizzled out after COVID hit. But the events since 2020 didn't erase the need for lightworkers to get together. If anything, it's even more important now. So once I started feeling better in mid 2021, I started a Patreon group online. We met for about a year. It was a really small group. It was about as much as I could handle at the time, because I was still working on my health. But that too was a life changing experience, I feel at least for me and it seems from the feedback I've been getting for others as well. And so now lately, the guidance has been really strong as my physical health is so much better. I'm getting guided to widen the circle, because I feel like there are so many souls who need this kind of community. But before I tell you about this, let me give you a little background as to some big changes in my life recently and how this is all coming together. As you may know, I got remarried a couple years ago to a wonderful man. And last October, my husband Rich and I made a very conscious and committed decision. So we decided to start a nonprofit with the intention of both of us working in it full time within three years to serve our spiritual calling. And our new organization is called Spoken Earth Ministries. So starting this year in 2023, Art Awakening and everything that I do including workshops and private sessions will be done as a branch of Spoken Earth Ministries just to keep everything contained in one place. So we do have a vision eventually of acquiring a piece of land to build a retreat center and sustainable community and to be able to give workshops there about spirituality and natural law and living in harmony with the earth. But in the meantime, I'm really feeling called to start with creating community both locally and online, because that's where I feel there is so much need at this time. So the first thing I want to do is provide safe spaces for light workers everywhere to come together in real time. So allow me to introduce Light Workers Cafe, my new membership program for Star Seeds. Once or twice a month, I'll be hosting an online space for light workers to come hang out together. This is a place where you can come and meet other spiritually awakened people and have fun and learn from each other. At least once a month, we'll have a more informal gathering that will include fun activities such as pulling cards for each other or just open discussion. And some months there may be an additional free event that's more structured, such as a group guided meditation, a lecture or a guest speaker. And it tends to be accessible to everyone. So the basic membership and Light Workers Cafe will always be free of charge. The only thing that you'll need to do to participate is to join spoken earth ministries as a member is a little form to fill out and membership application to agree to. Once you join you'll get notifications via email of every event. So to kick off Light Workers Cafe I have two events planned for this week. Today evening January 25 at 7 to 8pm Eastern time is just an informal meet up on zoom. I'll be brewing up a cup of my favorite herbal tea and just hanging out with whoever wants to join me. So whatever spiritual topics rock your boat bring them and let's have a good time discussing. Next, the first organized Light Workers Cafe event will be next Sunday, January 29 at noon Eastern, and it'll be an Oracle Fest. So bring your favorite decks. I'm going to bring my own cards but also several other decks that I have, and you can bring either cards or whatever other divination tools you have. And whoever shows up will all get together and pull cards for each other. And in my experience people always love Oracle Fest events. It's really fun because if you're new to divination. It's a great safe place to practice and you'll totally be supported. And if you're an old hand, it's just a fun way to connect with others in our wonderful Light Worker community and to give a little and receive as well. So in closing, I want to thank you all for all the support you've given me here on Art of Awakening over the years. It's really been, you guys have been such an important part of my life. I just can't begin to thank you enough. And again, I want to offer you a huge heartfelt welcome to join me in the Light Worker Cafe.

I look forward to seeing you there and remember you were born to be free.
