Heather told me her mother does not watch her podcast. She sees the reels go by and reports back that the guest was talking a lot and Heather was not talking at all, so she skipped it. Heather said the show is probably too confronting for her, and then said she is not making it for her mother’s human self. She is making it for her soul self, and for her descendants.
She is a Quantum Soul Guidance astrology practitioner and an embodied ancestral healing guide, and she has published eighty episodes of the Cycle Starters podcast, which she designs and edits and markets herself. She lives less than a mile and a half from the beach in Venice, California. Her mother is Filipina and her father is a light skinned Black man from the DC area, and Heather said there is a colonial influence on both sides. She spent years shedding those patterns, and the galactic astrology came after the blood ancestry work.
Heather said we have to do the blood ancestry work before we reach for the stars, because the roots have to be deep and wide enough to support us as we go up. She said skipping over that work can become its own form of spiritual bypassing. I recognized it immediately, because when I first opened to spirituality all I desired was to go up and out, and the great mother told me I was going to have a very human experience and I would have to go down and in first. Heather named herself an Enchanting Weaver on her intake, and during the conversation I reflected back the threads she makes from the galactic to the body and from people to people. Come sit with us.
