In this episode, Samantha and Denise share uplifting stories of people (and some animals!) who showed kindness for others in need. With so much fear and negativity in the world, it’s uplifting and brings a beautiful wave of hope to hear of people who helped just because it was the right thing to do. As empaths, we benefit so much from hearing there still are kind, encouraging people doing acts of service with no expectation of reward or accolades.
If you have an uplifting story you’d like to share, please email us: enlightenedempaths@gmail.com or post on our Facebook page: Enlightened Empaths.
Reigniting Your Creativity through The Artist’s Way
Jan 16, 2023
Show notes
Please join Samantha and Denise as they discuss Julia Cameron’s iconic book The Artist’s Way. This book has had an almost cult like following for the 30 plus years since it was originally self-published. The tips and techniques are interwoven with stories and usable information to help you reconnect with your own inner creative.
There are 12 chapters to be worked through over a 12 week process. It is a wonderful journey to take as an individual, with a dear friend or in a group of people. Each week sequentially leads to the next and over the course of the program, new habits are able to emerge which support your creativity and help you learn to do what brings you joy again.
As Julia states in reference to the basic principles presented in this book:
“As you work with the tools in this book, as you undertake the weekly tasks, many changes will be set in motion. Chief among these changes will be the triggering of synchronicity: we change and the universe furthers and expands that change.”
Maybe it’s time to gift yourself with some time to nurture your own precious seed of creativity!

The Seven Rays
Jan 09, 2023
Show notes
In this episode we do a bit of a dive into the 7 Rays. The Seven Rays is a concept that was popularized by esoteric teachers such as Alice Bailey and Madam Blavatsky but in fact has been around since at least the 6th century BC. It’s been taught by the Gnostics, Hindus and more recently the Theosophists.
Alice Bailey taught that each person has a soul ray that remains the same through all their incarnations, and a personality ray that is different for each incarnation. Each ray is connected to a spiritual master, a planet, a nation and different cycles. She wrote a book which divides everyone into one of these 7 rays.
Trying to cover the 7 rays in one show is impossible since it’s a really complex topic that’s been written about and taught for centuries. But we hope to at least give you a basis to begin your own research if you find this interesting. Basically each ray has its own attribute and purpose and everything that ray shines upon is effected by this attribute.
As we discussed, no ray is better or worse than another, just different, as each of us are as individuals. Here is a brief summary of each ray:
The first ray: WILL, POWER. Color: Red. Taurus and Pisces. Job/Goal: Faith in God’s will, protection. Said to represent the will of our creator.
The second ray: LOVE, WISDOM. Color: Blue. Leo and Virgo. Job/Goal: Intelligence, knowledge. This ray is about love for the creator and desire for union and being a co-creator with God.
The third ray: ADAPTABILITY, ACTIVE INTELLIGENCE. Color: Green. Gemini and Libra. Job/Goal: Discernment of spirits, creativity. This ray is about all creative endeavors that work to share God’s light.
The fourth ray: BEAUTY THROUGH HARMONY or HARMONY THROUGH CONFLICT. Color: Yellow. Scorpio and Aquarius. Job/Goal: Working of Miracles. This ray is focused on building a solid foundation so that harmony can be restored.
The fifth ray: CONCRETE KNOWLEDGE or SCIENCE. Color: Orange. Capricorn. Job/Goal: Healing. This ray is focused on using science to understand ourselves and the world we live in.
The sixth ray: DEVOTION or ABSTRACT IDEALISM. Color: Violet. Cancer and Sagittarius. Job/Goal: Interpretation of spirit. This ray concentrates on honoring our creator and seeing behind the illusion to what is real and true.
The seventh ray: ORGANIZATION, RITUAL/CEREMONIAL MAGIC. Color: Indigo. Aries. Job/Goal: Prophecy, working miracles. This ray is focused on unifying the inner and outer worlds and expressing into reality the adage “as above, so below.”
No matter what ray you may align with, please remember there is only one you in this entire vast experience and together we can find more unity and peace. For more information you may want to visit: https://sevenray.org/seven-rays/
New Year, New You!
Jan 02, 2023
Show notes
Happy 2023! Please join Denise and Samantha as they talk about the numerological impact of this being a 7 year, how to best choose your personal word of the year, and how to determine what is enough for you in your life!
As we start this new year in Mercury Retrograde, what a perfect time to gift ourselves with some time of reflection and release. Here are a few questions to ask yourself as you do your end of the year review and look ahead at the year ahead.
What did I do, create or experience this year that I’m really proud of?
What mistakes did I make that taught me something? What did I learn that I can use moving forward? What didn’t go so well?
What am I willing to let go of of? This seems to be a powerful question for many of us right now, is it finally time to let go of whatever has kept you in a state of procrastination, self-recrimination, or stagnancy?
Whatever you choose to release or reevaluate in your life, perhaps this is a way to step more fully into who you are becoming. We’re wishing you an amazing year ahead…Shine Your Light, we need you!

Are there times when you question if you’re connecting with your spiritual compass or maybe have lapsed more into coming from a place of ego?

This episode is based on an article by Aletheia Luna, 11 Sneaky Spiritual Traps Sabotaging Your Growth, originally published on http://wakeup-world.com.
