Normandi Ellis reveals why the Egyptian mysteries still feel startlingly alive today - and why the wisdom of Osiris, Isis, and sacred language may be exactly what modern spirituality has forgotten. Author, spiritual teacher, clairvoyant, and spiritualist minister Norma D. Ellis joins Joseph Paul for a wide-ranging conversation that moves from childhood signs of the divine in nature to the deeper meanings hidden in the Book of the Dead, the story of Osiris, and the role of Isis as the spark that awakens the divine within. If you've ever wondered whether spirituality is about escaping the body or embodying it more fully, this episode will challenge that assumption. You’ll discover:</p><ul><li>Why the phrase "God is my name" lies at the heart of ancient Egyptian consciousness</li><li>How Osiris becomes a map for death, rebirth, and the reintegration of the self</li><li>Why Isis is not just a goddess, but the force that activates awakening</li><li>What ancient Egyptian ideas about sacred words, vibration, and resonance have in common with quantum physics</li><li>Why modern spiritual seekers may be rediscovering what the Egyptians understood thousands of years ago</li></ul><p>Norma also opens up about her early intuitive experiences, the spiritualist influences in her family, and the moment she realized her gifts were not unusual at all - just underdeveloped. Along the way, she shares stories from Camp Chesterfield, reflections on clairvoyance and mediumship, and the surprising ways Christianity, Egyptian mysticism, and the divine feminine overlap. This is a conversation about more than ancient myths. It’s about how to live awake, how to trust what you sense, and how to remember that you are already part of a living, godded world. Perfect for listeners drawn to spirituality, esoteric wisdom, Egyptian mysticism, consciousness studies, reincarnation, and the deeper meaning of what it means to be human.</p><p>Normandi Ellis is an author, spiritual teacher, clairvoyant, and spiritualist minister known for her work with the Egyptian Book of the Dead and her book <i><em>Awakening Osiris</em></i>.

Raven shares how he moved from strict church upbringing to Satanism, then into broader occult study, Islam, and a more inclusive, open-ended practice centered on learning and community. We discuss how identity, anger, discipline, and curiosity shaped Raven’s path, and why he now focuses on uniting people rather than boxing them into labels.

The conversation traces how personal experiences, not theory, shaped his awakening, and why he believes responsibility, intuition, and direct spiritual experience matter more than inherited programming. We discuss how Dick’s early Catholic formation, legal career, and encounters with psychics, ghosts, and spirit guidance all became turning points.

This experience not only marked a turning point in her life but also deepened her connection to the spiritual realm.</p><p>## The Power of Nature and Connection</p><p>Throughout the conversation, Sophia emphasizes the importance of nature in her spiritual practice. "Singing, drumming, walking, gardening — these are all forms of meditation for me," she shares, illustrating how she finds peace and grounding in the natural world. Her journey is a testament to the idea that spiritual connection can manifest in various forms, often away from conventional structures.</p><p>As we reflect on Sophia’s experiences, it becomes clear that her path is one of resilience, exploration, and deep connection with the spirit world. </p><p>To hear more about Sophia’s fascinating journey and insights into spiritual awakening, listen to the full episode.</p>]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">93cf4e42-aae4-47d5-af3d-c138fb916426</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Joseph Dedon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 12 Aug 2026 21:00:00 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://api.riverside.com/hosting-analytics/media/ae1ee405c0c52f69013f22184d35dec0143af6d8c4bf94f79d7dec27a0ef3c02/eyJlcGlzb2RlSWQiOiI5M2NmNGU0Mi1hYWU0LTQ3ZDUtYWYzZC1jMTM4ZmI5MTY0MjYiLCJwb2RjYXN0SWQiOiIyZGJkNDEwZC1lNzhkLTRmYjAtYTJjNS03NGQ3MjFiOTQ0NTQiLCJhY2NvdW50SWQiOiI2OTcyYzFkZWEwNmVkZjUwM2JmNDBkMWIiLCJwYXRoIjoibWVkaWEvY2xpcHMvNmE3NTAzYzQzYjJmM2RhYjcxMzFhOGMwL2pvc2VwaHMtc3R1ZGlvLWhNY3VTLWNvbXBvc2VyLTIwMjYtOC02X18yMy01OS0zMi5tcDMifQ==.mp3" length="1532386" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://hosting-media.riverside.com/media/podcasts/2dbd410d-e78d-4fb0-a2c5-74d721b94454/episodes/93cf4e42-aae4-47d5-af3d-c138fb916426/transcripts.txt" type="text/plain"/><itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;# Connecting with Spirit: Sophia Rasmussen&apos;s Journey&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;gt; Explore Sophia&apos;s spiritual awakening and connection with nature.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In this episode of the Waken to Earth Podcast, Joseph Paul sits down with Sophia Rasmussen, a resident medium at Camp Chesterfield, to discuss her unique spiritual journey and the profound experiences that have shaped her life.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;## A Journey of Spiritual Discovery&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sophia shares her early life growing up in Cincinnati, Ohio, and her initial experiences with spirituality.

Despite this, she retained a deep connection to spirit, often feeling guided and protected. &quot;When there was toxicity, I would be removed by spirit,&quot; she explains, attributing her survival to a higher power that kept her out of harm&apos;s way.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sophia’s pivotal awakening came in 1988 through a near-death experience after an accident involving a live electric wire. &quot;I was dangling in the top of this tree twenty-two feet in the air upside down,&quot; she recounts, sharing the humbling aftermath and the physical challenges she faced. This experience not only marked a turning point in her life but also deepened her connection to the spiritual realm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;## The Power of Nature and Connection&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Throughout the conversation, Sophia emphasizes the importance of nature in her spiritual practice. &quot;Singing, drumming, walking, gardening — these are all forms of meditation for me,&quot; she shares, illustrating how she finds peace and grounding in the natural world. Her journey is a testament to the idea that spiritual connection can manifest in various forms, often away from conventional structures.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As we reflect on Sophia’s experiences, it becomes clear that her path is one of resilience, exploration, and deep connection with the spirit world. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To hear more about Sophia’s fascinating journey and insights into spiritual awakening, listen to the full episode.&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary><itunes:explicit>no</itunes:explicit><itunes:duration>00:00:48</itunes:duration><itunes:image href="https://hosting-media.riverside.com/media/podcasts/2dbd410d-e78d-4fb0-a2c5-74d721b94454/logos/24a264fd-9b9d-4d93-8353-5bb687338df0.png"/><itunes:season>1</itunes:season><itunes:episode>9</itunes:episode><itunes:title>Wakened Earth Episode 9 Preview - Sophia Rasmussen</itunes:title><itunes:episodeType>trailer</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wakened Earth Episode 8 - Trey Warner]]></title><description><![CDATA[<h5>The Wakened Earth Podcast with Trey Warner</h5><p>Joseph Paul sits down with his friend Trey Warner to talk about Trey’s path from a Pentecostal upbringing to astrology, mediumship, and sound healing.
