  Monsters of God (HBO Series)- What Human Patterns Reveal About Us

  Aug 15, 202621 min

  Have you watched Monsters of God , the new docuseries on HBO by Eric Goode? Capt. Ryan Van Fleet and I watched episode one and recognized several human patterns and were curious about what the patterns reveal about us. Your calling determines what you're drawn toward; your patterns influence what you create with it. And it's interesting how obsession can narrow your judgment. Some of the through-line patterns we discuss are: Greed Copying Energetics Blame Health Avoidance Identity Both of us also share a personal story about copying and respect. There is a lot here to unpack. Thank you for joining us! Connect further: www.melindavanfleet.com www.goodkarmasportfishing.com IG @themelindavanfleet IG @goodkarmasportfishing_fl_keys

  Managing Manifestation Expectations- The Mirror Principle and Eclipse's

  Aug 11, 202614 min

  Where are you expecting expansion and manifestation to be a 3D event? Versus understanding it's an inside game first? I recently had to reckon with this and a mirror showed up for me yesterday with someone else's podcast episode about manifestation. Understanding where expansion is an inside game first is crucial. And unfortunately with Lions Gate and other astrological things such as eclipse, we get caught up in only being appreciative of the 3D manifestation. Here is some enlightening information about the Lions Gate Portal and the Eclipse in Leo which is happening on August 12th, 2026. YouTube video about the Lions Gate Portal. https://www.youtu.be/CxgvVWQCHOk?si=M0s0Olm9075bi0NY 1. The Event: Total Solar Eclipse in Leo (August 12) While today (August 10) falls in the dark-moon phase of the lunar cycle, the official New Moon and Total Solar Eclipse occurs on August 12, 2026 at approximately 20° Leo . New Moon Mechanics: Every solar eclipse is structurally a New Moon (when the Moon passes directly between the Earth and the Sun). The "Reset" Energy: While standard New Moons are great for setting conscious intentions, Solar Eclipses act like a energetic circuit-breaker or "cosmic reboot". They tend to collapse outdated timelines and rapidly open new ones over an 18-month arc. 2. The Connection to the Lion's Gate Portal The Lion's Gate Portal opens annually around July 26 and peaks on August 8 (8/8) , aligned with the heliacal rising of the star Sirius alongside the Sun in its home sign of Leo. What makes this year's Lion's Gate extra potent: The Eclipse Closing: Rather than quietly tapering off, the 2026 Lion's Gate window seals directly into this Total Solar Eclipse on August 12. Astrologically, this is viewed as "sealing the container"—taking the downloads and clarity that surfaced around 8/8 and locking them into concrete reality. Nodal Shift: This eclipse is the first major lunation since the Lunar Nodes shifted onto the Leo/Aquarius axis , initiating an 18-month collective cycle focused on individual sovereignty versus collective conformity. 3. Key Astrological Themes & "Extra Properties" Theme Astrological Dynamics Authentic Sovereignty Moving away from performing for approval or holding onto roles built on old expectations. Leo asks: Who are you when you aren't seeking external validation? Unfinished 18/19-Year Cycles Solar eclipses belong to Saros cycles that recur roughly every 18.6 years. Astrologers highlight this event as a direct continuation of themes or shifts that first emerged around 2008 . Shedding the Persona Because eclipses obscure the Sun's light (the ego/identity), this period often highlights where pride, burnout, or rigid self-concepts need to soften so genuine creative expression can step forward. A Quick Practical Note: Eclipses bring high, volatile energy. Traditional astrological wisdom suggests using these few days to observe, rest, and release , rather than forcing rigid manifestation rituals. Let the old dust settle first! Further, there is a lot to be said here with comparison, expectations, and Cognitive Dissonance that I didn't even get into...future episode!

  One Year Later, These Internal Changes Created Success- Lions Gate 2026 Update

  Aug 6, 202622 min

  Welcome to Lions Gate 2026! What internal changes are you tracking? Or are you even aware of what internal changes need to happen in order to achieve success? Are you aware of the patterns that need to be changed? Because the more you tolerate what violates your standards, the more your identity begins to organize around accepting less. We are in the midst of Lions Gate which is a very powerful portal that is from 7/28 to 8/12 with 8/8 being the most powerful day. Lions Gate has Ancient Egyptian Roots and is an extended cosmic portal. Every year, we pay specific attention to what we are going through during this time, take notes in a journal, and then review them a year later. We both love how it all plays into Pattern Intelligence. This powerful, insightful and authentic podcast with my husband Capt. Ryan Van Fleet shares insights over the past year to help create some Aha moments, ideas, and ways to consider things so you can achieve more success in your life, business and relationships too. Couples accelerate change when both are pattern aware. Thank you for listening and sharing!

  Going Viral on Social Media- The Matrix Series

  Aug 2, 202621 min

  Going viral on social media isn't a strategy, it's most often a receipt and that's where people get it confused and get stuck in The Matrix. They "try" to do the thing (go viral on social media), which only causes more resistance in the field. And your nervous system creates differently than a strategy deck. Hence why pattern recognition is crucial to going viral. In other words, your intuition usually knows what to post before your marketing plan does. And the people who follow that more often than not are the ones who have the biggest opportunity because energy leaves fingerprints. In this episode of The Wake Up Call Podcast I share two recent Instagram examples where both Ryan and I went viral, breaking down my hindsights and insights, but not saying "this is what you should do." That's the difference. The Matrix teaches study everyone else until you finally become successful. But the reality is, pay attention to yourself enough that your originality has room to emerge.

  Human Design Is Not a Box- Understanding Your Natural Operating Style

  Jul 23, 202617 min

  The biggest mistake people make with Human Design, is that they view it as a box, not a baseline. It's about understanding the difference between what comes naturally and what needs more energy. Your Human Design chart doesn't limit you, but the story and identity you attach to it can. The goal isn't to fit your chart; it's to understand yourself more fully. Hence, why a lot of people don't like Human Design and it can get a bad rap. I have been a "student of Human Design" since November 2020. I wrote about Human Design in my best-selling book Life and Love Lessons— How to Discover Confidence Through Your Spiritual Journey 2021. Chapter 10- Obsessed with Human Design. Both of my books are available on Amazon in paperback, eBook and Audible. Why do I love Human Design? Because as a Generator, when I started to learn about myself, my energy, and how I best operate— I stopped doubting myself. I also share what my friend called to ask me about and how that ties into energy type expansion (Generator and Manifestor) vs. being in a box, but also identity. Understanding Cognitive Dissonance (Leon Festinger 1957) in terms of identity is a piece of this equation. In 2023, I worked with a local business team of five managers and hosted Human Design Workshops along with individual 1:1 readings/sessions. It was an incredible experience not only of the team members learning about themselves but also how to best work together and structure their daily activities. If this is of interest to you, please send me an email at melinda@melindavanfleet.com to set up a call to further review. The Taylor Swift 2026 Songwriter of the Year Acceptance Speech I mentioned. The Theo Von and Ella Langley YouTube Podcast I mentioned. Thank you for listening and sharing!
