  <title>012- The Transgender Soul Experience- A Shamanic Perspective</title>
  <description>My guides have often illuminated the richness and beauty of the soul experience of being transgender.&amp;amp;nbsp; There’s also deep compassion regarding the harm that prejudiced human frameworks cause.&amp;amp;nbsp; There are good reasons a soul may opt to come into a body which has a biological sex that is different from the individual’s gender.&amp;amp;nbsp; Sometimes the soul’s plan doesn’t go as elegantly as hoped for or the discomfort is much greater than anticipated.&amp;amp;nbsp; Sometimes the soul’s goal is activism.&amp;amp;nbsp; Sometimes it’s about mastery in the less familiar form of magic and energy work that is more aligned with the energy body of a man or a woman even though that’s in opposition to the soul’s gender identity and affinity.&amp;amp;nbsp; In any of these cases, a person may find themselves navigating a tension between the soul’s gender and the body’s birth sex.&amp;amp;nbsp; Sometimes, it can be supportive to realign the energy body to the correct gender configuration matching that of the soul rather than the human biology.&amp;amp;nbsp; Also, learning to move in sexuality in a manner aligned with gender, regardless of anatomy, creates space for a freer, fuller, and more aligned expression. This is by no means a comprehensive discussion on the subject, just some frameworks that I’ve seen from the transgender clients I’ve had the honor to support.&amp;amp;nbsp; I apologize for any misused terms or incorrect language in talking about this subject.&amp;amp;nbsp; I incorrectly used “gender” when the correct term would have been “sex” in several places. In addition, the most up to date language changes quickly and I have more of an engaged and curious layperson level of education about the social justice conversations regarding transgender issues rather than expertise, so I may well have made other errors as well.&amp;amp;nbsp; I hope you’ll grant me grace.&amp;amp;nbsp; And, if you’re someone who would be hurt by incorrectly used terms or language, please don’t listen to this episode, since the last thing I would ever want to do is cause distress.
