Episode 60 - May 2026 Yin Water Snake: Resoluteness, The Family, Deliverance, The Well.

May is a good month to reflect on what has happened, and prepare for what is coming. This requires inner work, intestinal fortitude, and courage. The Yin Water supports the introspection, and the Snake's Yin Fire aligns with Joy and inspiration. Even so, the I Ching card for the month is 43, Resoluteness. This speaks to the need to stay focused on the task at hand, and to be prepared to have your character tested. This is easier when you know yourself, and have the inner resolve and integrity to stick to the right path.   The clarifying cards: 37, The Family, Focus Line 2: Remember that we are all part of the same family, the Human Family. Do what is best for your community and stay focused on the work that is right in front of you. Don't allow the distractions of the day to pull focus or try to force matters. That will not end well for anyone.   40, Deliverance, Focus Line 3: We are feeling the tension that happens before a big storm. Anyone who has lived through a tornado or a hurricane knows the feeling...and once the storm has passed, there is a certain sense of relief and even exhilaration. This focus line indicates that we've been processing this and ready to look at the damage done by the storm. We are making a plan to clean up the broken limbs, repair the things that got damaged, and maybe even contemplate starting from scratch if that's the case. However, it's also very important to not go overboard, because the high energy of release can rarely be sustained. Don't make plans that your "normal self" can't follow through on.   48, The Well, Focus Line 1: If the Yin Water Snake alone wasn't enough to compel us to get in touch with our intuition, here is yet another bell ringing to go deep. This awareness will increase our wisdom (MUCH needed these days!) and the fearlessness to get to the bottom of things, whatever those things may be. By being the conduit between the inspiration and spiritual insight of the Heavens and the grounding and connectedness of the Earth, we can truly live our remit as Souls having our Earthbound School experience.   High friction days: 5/13, 14, 25, 26 (Pig, Rat) Use these dates to upend unhealthy trajectories and stop bad habits.   www.TheIntuitiveInterior.com [http://www.TheIntuitiveInterior.com]

Episode 59 - Parenting Aging Parents: Engaging Curiosity and Humor

We had such a great conversation, spanning the range of the newsroom, helping people refine their zoom presence and skills, to working with sorority rush intro videos, to the final gift we can give to our parents: making sure they are taken care of during their later years. Kim and Mike are true gifts to the community at large. I know you'll enjoy this show! Kim Barnes spent more than 30 years as an award-winning television news anchor, journalist, TV, commercial and film actor. She taught television news reporting at The University of Texas and runs Barnes Team Media, a communication training firm. But her most transformative work began when she and her husband started navigating care for their parents in their 80s. What started as her own caregiving journey became Parenting Aging Parents in 2021, a platform now supporting over 37,000 families nationwide. Kim & Mike have conducted 120+ expert interviews and built a comprehensive resource library to help adult children manage one of life's most demanding transitions. She brings her decades of communication expertise and personal experience to help adult children balance caregiving responsibilities with personal and professional demands, turning what most people navigate in isolation into a shared, strategic approach. www.TheIntuitiveInterior.com/book-now [http://www.TheIntuitiveInterior.com/book-now] https://parentingagingparents.com [https://parentingagingparents.com] https://www.youtube.com/@parentingagingparents [https://www.youtube.com/@parentingagingparents] https://www.facebook.com/groups/parentingagingparents [https://www.facebook.com/groups/parentingagingparents] https://www.facebook.com/kim.z.barnes/ [https://www.facebook.com/kim.z.barnes/] https://www.linkedin.com/company/parenting-aging-parents [https://www.linkedin.com/company/parenting-aging-parents] https://www.linkedin.com/in/kimzbarnes/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/kimzbarnes/] https://www.instagram.com/parenting_aging_parents/ [https://www.instagram.com/parenting_aging_parents/]

Episode 57 - March 2026, Yin Metal Rabbit

This is the month to focus on cultivating your intuition. There will be a lot of opportunities for distraction and projects that will take you off course. If you don't challenge your perspectives and "KNOW" what is yours and what is something that others wish to impose on you, the incredible momentum will be lost. This grounding happens easiest when you notice the beauty around you, even in the most mundane tasks and everyday activities.   Month Card: 61, Inner Truth: Insight, clarity, intuitive knowing, penetrating illusion   Clarifying cards: 19: Approach, focus line 2: Advancing, prosperous conditions, increased influence, hopefulness, lightening up 1: The Creative, focus line 2: The active yang principle, strength, tenacity, inspiration, masculinity, authority, dynamism 4,3: Resoluteness, focus line 5: determination, no compromises, unwavering focus, inner resolve, integrity, a test of character   How to set up your home for the Yang Fire Horse: https://www.theintuitiveinterior.com/2026-feng-shui-updates [https://www.theintuitiveinterior.com/2026-feng-shui-updates]   How to find the facing direction of your home: https://www.theintuitiveinterior.com/freebaguamap [https://www.theintuitiveinterior.com/freebaguamap]
