The Shattering Place Podcast

What happens when intuition leads you to turn your life upside down and take the road less travelled? Is intuition actually a biological gateway to aligning with your soul? In this episode of The Shattering Place, Dixon sits down with Kirsten Snobeck to demystify the Akashic Records. They explore intuition, rejecting the safe voice of the known world and the ‘shoulds’ of family and society, the hero’s journey, timing and divine guidance. Kirsten shares how the Akashic field is a practical, multidimensional library accessible through the somatic body.Are you ready to stop searching outside of yourself and start accessing the information stored in the Field?

Through Akashic Records readings and her channeled artwork, Energy Blueprints, she helps people reconnect with their inner guidance and access the deeper intelligence of their own soul.Her work explores intuition as a pathway into multidimensional awareness—offering grounded, practical ways to listen more deeply, trust what arises, and move through life with greater clarity and alignment.Originally trained and working as an architect for 20 years, Kirsten followed her intuition into a complete life reset—leaving her career, putting everything in storage, and going on a 4,000+ mile soul-led road trip. Along the way, she was guided to the place that became her new home in Sonoma County, California, where she now lives and works in alignment with where her soul wanted to land. That experience now informs how she supports others: not by giving answers, but by helping them access and trust their own.Learn more about Kirsten’s work on her website, kirstensnobeck.com Get full access to Trauma, Growing Up, Waking Up at michelledixonwriter.substack.com/subscribe

In the season finale, Dixon synthesizes the shift from a materialist collapse to a new human operating system. We explore the biology of survival and speculate on the biology of emergence and transmission. We consider the purpose of being human, locating it within an embodied experience that may even have relevance to the wider, galactic field. Dixon asks: are you ready to stop fixing the old world and start becoming the architecture of the new?THE NOVELThis podcast is a companion to the novel IKONA by M.D. Dixon.

Ascension is often understood as being somehow apart from or beyond the world, an escape from the mundane. But true awakening is a grounded, embodied experience. In this episode, we attempt to rescue the concepts of awakening and ascension from the distortions of popular culture, spiritual paywalls, and the myth of specialness.THE NOVELThis podcast is a companion to the novel IKONA by M.D. Dixon.

ANCIENT LINEAGES & UNITY CONSCIOUSNESSThe Non-Dual Tradition (Advaita Vedanta)The foundational philosophy which posits that the separation between the observer and the universe is an illusion. Maya is the veil or creative power that makes the singular, infinite reality appear as a multitude of separate, disconnected objects and egos. Neti-Neti is the systematic process of “not this, not that,” where the seeker peels away layers of identity—body, emotions, thoughts—to reveal the unchanging Awareness underneath.The Buddhist BlueprintVipassana (Insight Meditation) is a method of self-observation that dissolves the “permanent self” by witnessing the constant flux of physical sensations. In the Koan Practice of Zen, paradoxical questions like “What is the sound of one hand clapping?” are used to exhaust the analytical mind until it collapses into direct insight. This is supported by The Eightfold Path, a holistic ethical and mental framework designed to harmonize human life with the universal truth of interconnectedness.II. THE CHRISTIAN CONTEMPLATIVE TRADITIONSpiritual Accompaniment & DirectionAn ancient lineage tracing back to the 4th-century Desert Fathers and Mothers, focused on “soul-friending” and the discernment of internal movements. This tradition was carried forward by Julian of Norwich, the 14th-century mystic (female) who emphasized the homeliness and intimate (almost maternal) goodness of the Divine, and St. John of the Cross, the 16th-century monk who mapped the “Dark Night of the Soul” and the rigorous death of the ego.Thomas MertonThe 20th-century Trappist monk who modernized these ancient practices, democratizing the interior life and bridging the gap between Eastern Zen and Western Contemplation.III. DEVELOPMENTAL STAGES & THE SHADOWWaking Up vs. Growing Up (Integral Theory)A framework popularized by Ken Wilber distinguishing between spiritual states (Waking Up) and psychological maturity (Growing Up). This explains the fallacy of the “Perfect Guru”. As examples, the 1983 Richard Baker Roshi scandal and the transparency of Jun Po Denis Kelly Roshi (and the biography, A Heart Blown Open) reveal that profound spiritual insight does not automatically heal emotional wounding or shadow behaviors.Elizabeth Liebert & The Way of DiscernmentA model showing how our developmental stage—whether Conformist, Reflective, or Integrative—dictates how we perceive and listen for the Divine.IV. SOMATIC & FIELD DYNAMICSBonnie Greenwell & KundaliniHer work in The Kundalini Guide provides a clinical yet soulful framework for the intense, often disruptive bio-energy releases that accompany awakening.Morphic ResonanceRupert Sheldrake’s theory suggesting that collective memory and evolutionary patterns are shared across a non-physical field.Horizontal vs. Vertical TimeThe distinction between chronological time (Chronos) and the opportune, non-linear moment of “God’s time” (Kairos).V. MODERN SYNTHESIS & CRITIQUEThe Stillpoint (Dixon)A term describing the opposite of the Dark Night of the Soul—a surrender or collapse into Wholeness where the seeking finally stops.“Bro Spirituality” & The PaywallA critique of the modern ascension marketplace that gatekeeps spiritual alignment behind high-ticket programs and meritocratic specialness, often ignoring the grounded reality of the human life!STAY CONNECTED: Join the Inner Circle for free membership, episode deep-dives, and exclusive author bonuses: ikonathecommunity.comFOLLOW: Instagram @ikonathenovelSOUND CREDITS & ATTRIBUTIONTo support the contemplative atmosphere of this episode, we have featured the following soundscapes and recordings.

If we can feel the weight of the past, is it possible we can also sense the pull of the future? Drawing on the central themes of the novel IKONA, Dixon explores future memory—the phenomenon of a future self reaching back to guide the present.

The Philosophers of the “Vertical Axis”These thinkers provided the bones for moving beyond linear time, mapping how the spirit intersects the daily grind.Gaston Bachelard: The philosopher who gave us the vertical distinction. He describes the “poetic instant” as a breakthrough where we stop the horizontal flow of time to touch eternity.Thomas Merton: A contemplative monk who explored the True Self. He saw the vertical axis as our connection to an abundant, transcendent source that exists outside the noise of modern life.Jean Gebser: A pioneer of consciousness studies who argued that humanity is mutating into an Integral stage where time becomes transparent and the future is seen as latent within the present.G.I. Gurdjieff: The mystic who taught the “Line of Being.” He viewed most of human life as a mechanical sleep on the horizontal plane and taught specific Work to wake up and move vertically.II. The Science of the Field & PrecognitionModern research that validates what the mystics have always known: the body knows the future before the mind does.Dean Radin: A leading scientist in parapsychology whose rigorous studies on presentiment show that our nervous systems physically react to events moments before they happen.Popular Mechanics – Precognition and Time: A look at how mainstream science is beginning to grapple with the possibility that time doesn’t just flow in one direction; https://www.popularmechanics.com/science/a69560924/precognition-and-time-explainedProject Looking Glass / The Montauk Project: Notorious black budget legends and urban myths that, regardless of their literal truth, reflect our deep cultural obsession with viewing and manipulating the timeline.III. The Somatic & Spiritual TechnologyThe tools we use to navigate the future and tune our internal frequency.Cynthia Bourgeault: A modern wisdom teacher who reframes the heart as a sophisticated organ of perception used to navigate the non-linear Imaginal Realm.The Seth Material (Jane Roberts): Channeled wisdom that introduced the “Many Worlds” concept to the mainstream, suggesting that our point of power is always in the present.NLP & Parts Work (IFS): Clinical modalities that prove trauma isn’t just in the past—it is a frequency held in a part of us right now that can be accessed and healed from the now moment.IV.

Most of us believe our thoughts are private, yet the evidence suggests we are living in a shared mental landscape. We look at the “Telepathy Tapes” and the reality of heart coherence to understand how our internal states act as a public broadcast.

While traditional ethics focuses on our external actions—what we do and what we say—the Ethics of Resonance extends our responsibility to the frequency we hold within. Because our minds and nervous systems are porous, the data of our private lives acts as an environmental input for the collective.To practice this ethics is to understand that:* Inner work is a planetary responsibility: Every time we move from reactive chaos into a state of coherence, we are literally cleaning the shared air of the collective field.* Privacy is an illusion: We are constantly imprinting the “water” (see reference to Veda Austin, below) of our shared reality with our thoughts and emotional states.* Coherence is service: Choosing to resolve our own trauma isn’t just a path to personal peace; it is a contribution to the stability and evolution of the human species.The Cosmic & Collective Architecture* Nous: From Ancient Greece; the concept of a cosmic mind or intellect that organizes the universe.* The Collective Unconscious: Carl Jung’s map of the shared reservoir of archetypes and memories common to all humanity.* Morphic Resonance: Rupert Sheldrake’s theory that nature has memory and that similar forms tune in to one another across time and space.* The Implicate Order: Physicist David Bohm’s proposal that, at the quantum level, everything is enfolded into everything else, suggesting a fundamental holism.* Dixon’s Substack article on the shared field.The Science of Group Coherence & Intent* Dr. Masaru Emoto, The Secret Language of Water* Veda Austin, The Secret Intelligence of Water: Macroscopic Evidence of Water Responding to Human Consciousness* The Interstitium: In 2018 the interstitium was discovered—a previously unrecognized, fluid-filled network of interconnected compartments throughout the body* The Global Consciousness Project 2.0: A collaboration between the HeartMath Institute and Dr. Joe Dispenza.
