Over the next 52 weeks, we'll use journaling as a tool for deep self-discovery—a chance to reflect, embrace, and shape your future with honesty and without fear. Each week a new Oracle card provides a prompt to guide you, but remember, this is your journey. There are no rules. Take what resonates and leave the rest. Whether you prefer pen and paper or a digital format, scripting, doodling, or writing, the key is to engage and enjoy the process. We'll be using Yanik Silver's "The Cosmic Journey Oracle." This week's card: #2 "A Light Grows Brighter Only by Lighting Another" Background music by my friend, the incredible Blossom Violet, was recorded LIVE on April 3, 2025. Be sure to follow her for more beautiful piano tracks! I've also included her music in my journaling playlists, which you can find here on my teacher's profile, at the bottom of the "Home" tab. And please join us in the Insight Timer group: "Ask Your Guides" — grounded, guided, and always growing.

Hello and welcome,

Beautiful Insight Timer community.

Today we are on week 39 of our year of journaling.

I can't believe we're 39 weeks in already.

I feel like the year just started.

But anyway,

As usual,

I went to our Cosmic Journey Oracle by Yanique Silver,

Pulled a random card,

And I got number two.

A light grows brighter only by lighting another.

I have to tell you,

I got a little excited when I saw this card,

Because I feel like this has been our theme lately,

And I love it.

I went to the book,

Was excited to read what he had to say about it.

You've come to your next turn on the evolutionary spiral.

Your growth in each area of your life is ready to be significantly accelerated by lighting another light.

You cannot diminish your light by lighting another.

It only grows brighter and brighter.

Perhaps what you need to learn most is what you are meant to be teaching right now.

This gives you more space to move on to what's next for you.

Even if you don't think you are an expert or authority,

You are wiser than you've given yourself credit for.

When the student is ready,

The teacher appears.

And when the teacher is ready,

The student will appear.

So our journaling question,

What am I drawn to teach right now?

How will it light my next evolutionary path forward?

I got so excited by this interpretation of the card,

Because number one,

I just published my first course.

It's kind of been two years in the making.

I wanted to create a course on scripting.

I thought,

Well,

I'm not an expert,

And there's people out there that know more than I do.

I finally stopped saying that to myself,

And I decided to just do it.

So when I read the line here,

Even if you don't think you're an expert,

You're wiser than you've given yourself credit for,

I really felt like that was talking to me.

And I hear it.

And I've decided I'm going to create more courses.

I'm excited to do that.

I also love that line,

When the student is ready,

The teacher appears.

I say that all the time.

I felt like my time on Insight Timer has been all about finding the right teachers.

And I love the way they flipped it here.

When the teacher is ready,

The student will appear.

I want to print that out and hang it by my computer,

Because I love that line so much.

All right,

My friends,

I'm excited to journal today,

Because I'm going to be thinking about what other courses I want to create.

Whether I'm an expert or not,

Or I think I'm not an expert,

I'm just going to go for it.

So let's write.

Let's listen to Blossom's beautiful music,

And let's journal on that question.

What am I drawn to teach right now?

How will it light my next evolutionary path forward?

All right,

My friends,

I am excited.

I can't wait to hear what you journaled about.

Can't wait to hear what you would like to teach.

Whether or not you're an expert doesn't matter.

What are you interested in teaching?

I started thinking about I've wanted to do a pet loss course for a while.

Again,

I don't consider myself an expert,

Other than I lost my two pups within eight months of each other a couple of years ago.

And that was a really challenging time,

And there were so many resources that I used to get through it.

And I would love to create a course and share that with other people who have gone through or are going through the same thing.

So please drop me a comment.

Let me know what you would like to teach.

Maybe you don't think you're an expert.

Hey,

Maybe I can help you find a way to do it too.

I'd love to do that for you.

And please check out my new scripting course called Rewrite Your Story.

I made it short and I made it simple.

It was my first attempt.

I'm very proud of it.

Very excited to have finally done it.

It won't take a lot of time,

And I would love to hear your feedback on that as well.

All right,

My friends,

Until next week,

I hope you're having a beautiful day.

I hope you have an amazing week,

And I can't wait to meet back here next week,

Week 40 of our year of journaling.

Until then,

Keep shining like the beautiful diamond that you are.

As usual. Spot on! I love that saying too! When the Teacher is ready, the student appears. This really ignites me to do my group coaching tomorrow with a new focus of all of us helping each other to learn something new. Love this!!!

I am so proud of you for creating your first course ... and you are an expert. I am so your journalling student. This is the day before the New Moon and Autumn equinox and a day before I go on a narrowboat holiday, travelling at 3mph for a week. This prompt, as usual, is so apt as tomorrow I launch my customGPT. A portal into an entirely different form of AI that incidentally opens the door to my entire Insight Timer portfolio, ‘indexing’ it in a way that the app doesn’t. I would love to teach other teachers how to use AI as a door like no other to all their repositories. Retrospectively exposing this journalling series meta-layer would be an amazing tool for scribes for example. Thanks for being with me each week to keep me so grounded and focussed. P.s. a pet loss course would be amazing
