Send Us a Message!✨ What if your hardest relationships are actually teachers, and your recurring triggers are maps guiding you toward healing? In this episode, we explore how Soul Contracts and Spiritual Archetypes form a living framework for meaning, growth, and purpose.From the four universal shadow archetypes—the victim, saboteur, prostitute, and child—to their light expressions as warrior, magician, lover, and sovereign child, you’ll learn how to recognize and alchemize patterns without bypassing the hard stuff. You’ll discover: 🌙 Why archetypes are so powerful—they’re vivid, fast, and collective (everyone knows what “queen” or “victim” means) 🌙 How to shift from blame to accountability in seconds using archetypal awareness 🌙 The 12 houses of archetypes and where patterns show up—home, career, relationships, spirituality 🌙 How practitioners can use archetypes to speed up client intakes, reduce counter-transference, and hold a clean, compassionate healing fieldChristine and Shantel share candid stories from their own spiritual trenches, including surprising spirit-guide dynamics and upper-world resistance, and how those challenges built unshakable confidence for client work that others might find “too heavy.”We also dive into the bigger picture—how to be a sacred witness in a chaotic world, stay engaged without being consumed, and recognize when antagonists are actually pushing you toward sovereignty.✨ Ready to map your own patterns and step fully into your light?

Send Us a Message!What if the parts of yourself you’ve been hiding aren’t broken—but the very key to your healing? In this transformative episode on shadow work and self-healing, Christine Renee and Shantel Ochoa reveal why shadow work isn’t about battling your “dark side,” but instead learning to love, accept, and integrate the hidden aspects of yourself.Christine shares a vulnerable story about her own shadow activation around body image, showing how most shadows form before age eight as protective mechanisms. From there, you’ll be guided through a powerful 5-step shadow work process designed to help you heal and integrate your shadows: ✨ Recognize triggers with self-awareness ✨ Meet patterns with curiosity instead of judgment ✨ Practice radical self-acceptance with accountability ✨ Alchemize old beliefs into new possibilities ✨ Integrate through conscious routines and emotional regulationYou’ll also learn how shadows commonly show up in everyday life—through grief, addictions, people-pleasing, escapism, or emotional reactivity—and how compassion can transform them from destructive cycles into sources of wisdom and strength.If you’ve been curious about shadow work, trauma healing, or spiritual awakening, this episode reframes shadow work as a path to wholeness, resilience, and emotional freedom. You’ll walk away with practical tools and spiritual insight to support your healing journey and reclaim the energy that has been trapped in old patterns.Whether you’re new to shadow work or seeking deeper integration, this conversation will help you move beyond self-sabotage and step into a life rooted in authenticity, self-love, and inner power.Ready to dive deeper?

Send Us a Message!What if the stories you tell yourself are the very chains keeping you stuck? In this powerful episode, Christine and Isabel explore how past trauma shapes your identity, limits your potential, and disconnects you from your intuition — and how you can finally break free.From a Shamanic perspective, your life is created by the stories you carry. When those stories are rooted in wounds, they act like invisible “hooks,” pulling you back into old patterns of fear, self-sabotage, and limitation. Even your healing journey can become a trap if it reinforces the belief that you’re still broken.In this episode, you’ll discover: 🌿 How trauma creates limiting beliefs and energetic attachments 🌿 Why your mind can only project the past into the future — and how to break the cycle 🌿 The difference between wounds and scars (and how to fully integrate your healing) 🌿 Shamanic techniques for rewriting your story and reconnecting with your soul’s truth 🌿 Practical tools for future forecasting and stepping into your highest selfIf you’ve been feeling stuck, replaying the same patterns, or wondering why your healing hasn’t “worked” yet — this conversation will help you shift from wounded identity to empowered being.✨ Ready to reclaim your power and write a new story?

Send Us a Message!Psychedelics and plant medicine have become increasingly intertwined with modern spiritual practices, but are these substances truly necessary for profound spiritual experiences? This question sits at the heart of our candid conversation about the relationship between Shamanism, plant medicine, and psychedelics.The conversation delves into the long-term integration process of psychedelic experiences, contrasting it with conscious shamanic methods that engage both mind and spirit in real time. Using the metaphor of an escalator versus stairs, we emphasize that while both paths can lead to transformation, shamanic techniques—like breathwork and meditation—build inner strength without giving power away to external tools.Along the way, we discuss:The relationship between psychedelics, plant medicine, and spiritualityQuestioning the necessity of substances for spiritual experiencesOur unique perspectives and experiences with psychedelicsthe difference between plant medicine and psychedelicsRisks of giving spiritual power away to substancesThe importance of integration after psychedelic experiencesThe stairs vs. escalator metaphor for spiritual growthThe role of your subconscious mind in the use of psychedelicsEmpowerment through conscious Shamanic techniquesAnd so much more!The Moon Rising team brings diverse perspectives to this nuanced topic, challenging the assumption that psychedelics are necessary for spiritual growth.Ready to expand and heal without the use of psychedelics?
