The Soul's Truth Podcast: Real Talk on Sex, Relationships, Healing & Spiritual Growth

Hunter’s Moon spiritual meaning: why you feel so heavy right now. You freeze halfway down your back steps with a trash bag in your hand. You look up, and the moon isn’t white. It’s amber. Copper. The crickets suddenly stop. The air smells like wet leaves and iron. That tightening in your chest isn’t weakness. It’s remembrance. In this week’s episode of The Soul’s Truth Podcast, host Adam Stuart Hopkins breaks down what actually happens when the Hunter’s Moon rises: the atmospheric science, the ancestral shifts, and the three grounding stones to keep close as we cross the threshold into winter.

You hear footsteps behind you. You stop. They stop. You turn around, and no one is there. Something has been following a man for weeks. It knows where he lives. It knows where he travels. It never speaks, it never shows itself, and it never falls behind. This week I follow that sound all the way to its source, and what’s waiting there is not what he’s afraid it is. Here is what almost nobody tells you about your shadow. It isn’t a dark, dangerous self hiding inside you. It’s everything about you that you learned, somewhere along the way, wasn’t safe to keep. You didn’t bury a monster. You buried something that was standing in the way of the life you were trying to build. That’s why turning around isn’t punishment. It’s how you get it back. thesoulstruth.com In this episode: Why what you’re avoiding costs more energy the longer you avoid it Why it gets louder when your life gets quiet, not when it falls apart Why it shows up after you win instead of after you lose What it costs the people closest to you while you keep running What’s actually waiting for you when you finally stop and look Free download: Meeting Your Shadow, five questions to ask the part of you that you left behind.

You're alone in a tent in the middle of the wilderness. Something's outside — cans rattling, chairs flipping in the dark. Then you wake up in your bed, heart pounding, certain it was "just a dream." But your body doesn't know the difference between the tent and the bedroom. It never has. In this episode, I'm asking a question that philosophers, mystics, and frightened kids at 3am have all asked in their own way: is life the dream, or is the dream real life? And if time isn't actually a straight line, how would you ever know which one you're in? We go deep on the beliefs you never chose — about money, worth, safety, and love — and who handed them to you before you were even old enough to say no. Then we meet the part of you that's been quietly watching the whole time, through every version of who you've been. I call him the Forever Man. thesoulstruth.com Truth Over Comfort, Always beacons.ai/thesoulstruth

Is there a heaven — and if there is, does it have to wait until we die? In this episode I take on one of the biggest questions a human being can ask, without giving you a tidy answer. We explore what heaven actually is beneath the imagery, what it might look like, whether it's accessible while we're still alive, and how to begin recognizing past-life patterns living inside your body right now.
