BONUS: September 2025 Arcturian Wisdom: Embrace the 9-9 Energy
Ever notice how you reach for your phone the moment uncomfortable feelings arise? The Arcturians have a message for you about this very tendency—and why September 2025's powerful 9-9 energy makes this the perfect moment to break the cycle.
This channeled transmission cuts straight to the heart of our collective avoidance patterns. The Arcturians explain we're experiencing a critical transition point in both the "year of nine" and "month of nine"—a powerful numerical alignment that amplifies endings and completions. Their advice? Slow down. Feel what arises. Stop filling every moment with distractions that ultimately delay your healing and transformation.
"90% of healing work is awareness," they remind us, offering practical guidance for navigating this transitional period. When you feel the urge to scroll mindlessly or overwork, they suggest pivoting toward stillness instead. This isn't about completely abandoning enjoyable activities but introducing more consciousness around our avoidance patterns. The physical body plays a crucial role too, sometimes manifesting symptoms that force us to slow down when we resist doing so voluntarily.
Most compelling is their perspective on the final months of 2025, which they compare to the climactic final quarter of a movie—the part designed to be most impactful and memorable. These months set the stage for the expansive "year one" energy of 2026, making now the perfect time to "hammer it home" with conscious choices that align with your highest evolution. They offer a simple but powerful affirmation to support this process: "Universe, make the first sign so clear that I align myself to inner love, inner peace and my authenticity."
Ready to embrace this powerful time of completion? Try their suggested practice of noticing when you reach for distractions, then choosing introspection instead. What emotions might be waiting for your awareness? What transformation might be possible when you finally stop filling the void?

Hi, I'm Lizzie and I'm Nikki. Have you ever felt that your life was missing purpose, joy or deep connection? Welcome to the Modern Zen Collective podcast, where we embrace holistic living for a joyful, purpose-driven life.
Speaker 1:In this podcast, we'll explore holistic practices, consciousness expansion and spiritual alignment. We will dive into personal development practices that connect mind, body, spirit and share secrets that ancient cultures have known for centuries. Together, we aim to guide, educate and connect individuals eager to transform their lives.
Speaker 2:Join us weekly on the Modern Zen Collective podcast and elevate your mind, body and spirit. And now on to today's episode.
Speaker 1:Arcturian Channeling for September 2025. At this moment in time, you are in the vital point of transition. We know this is something that has been said over and over again, whether through us in this or whether through us through other mediums and channels, but we want to remind you everything is geometry, everything is numerology, everything is geometry, everything is numerology. You are in the year of the nine, you are in the month of the nine. The guidance that we can give you at this point in time is to slow down. Slow down to enjoy what is around you, slow down to give yourself extra time to get to where you need to be and, most importantly, slow down to feel the feelings and emotions coming up and that you feel percolating inside of you. Introspection for this month 9-9. When you find yourself moving towards the distractions that fill the void and fill the time here on earth, pivot from there and take time instead to be with yourself. Sitting with yourself, without any music or stimuli, eyes closed or open. Sitting with yourself, relaxing, laying down, taking a walk without external stimuli such as podcasts or any music, when you have the tendency and we have been there before through our own evolution, as you know we've done the same evolution that you have when you have the tendency to jump and move forward with the things that can fill the time. Those phrases I have so much work to do, I have so much going on, I have all of this and all of that. There's so much happening, there's not enough hours in the day. Take inventory of that. Those statements are they true? With a capital T? Or because you are magic human, the sacred, divine and human form, you can create time. And creating time can be understanding and looking at things from a third party awareness, helicopter view, bird's eye view and seeing where you can move things around. But we can almost guarantee 90% of those phrases you say, or the chaos you feel inside is from the ego keeping you busy, making you busy and then fueling you and pushing you to fill the void of any of these times where you might actually be by yourself, to do something. That for you, feels like it is regulating your nervous system and getting you into a place of relaxation. But what it's actually doing that is the masquerade that it is selling to you. What it is actually doing is prolonging your healing process, prolonging the healing process for the collective. Prolonging you to step into happiness. Prolonging you to step into your full authenticity, prolonging you to step into this abundance and this love and this magic and all of these opportunities that are just waiting to get there for you. There are plenty of ways for you to regulate your nervous system.
Speaker 1:So we ask, during this time in the month of September 9-9, to pivot. When you have that proclivity to go towards the familiar, whether that be scrolling on social media, whether it be watching TV or having shows on in the background, whether it be filling your time for 10 hours with work, when you can manage your time and winnow that down to six or seven. From our perspective, you could winnow that down to three or four and completely expand what you're doing here through the power of organization, time blocking and delegation. So look at this and take inventory of where it is that you are keeping your happiness, your fulfillment, your authenticity, your abundance, your magic, your opportunities at bay, and it might not look as clear and crystal clear to you for what is here and now. That's why we are bringing it up the nine nine.
Speaker 1:It's almost as if you're in this movie and the movie is the year 2025, and when you're watching a movie, it has ups and downs and twists and turns and new characters and new things happen, and the end of the movie is what keeps people engaged. So that end of the movie is orchestrated by design for the last quarter of the movie to keep your interest, because you are going to remember that last part more than you remember the first three-fourths of the movie. That is a mirror of what happens each year, not this year. This year is no different. Just this year, with the energy of nine in endings, you are being asked to not fight that energy but to instead embrace it and see where you can clear space, where can you open yourself up, where can you release and surrender control, where can you follow your path. And we are giving you a simple, easy tool that you could do to really align with this energy and step into your greatest expansion, which starts towards the end of this year.
Speaker 1:It's not a calendar ripoff. January 1 is when it starts. Calendar ripoff January 1 is when it starts. The energy of this starts in November and December. That energy starts and then you get to continue it throughout next year in the year one, catapulting, moving forward, jumping board, jumping off into that new one. Everything you did for nine years is manifesting and ready. So wouldn't you want to utilize these last few months to really hammer it home and do the things you want to do and make the choices you want to make and shake up your energy and get out of your routine and out of the familiar and regulate your nervous system in ways that are outside of the mind, numbing, whatever it might be doom scrolling or filling the void, or all of these things that you know. We don't even need to say what they are. You know what it is that you go to as your go-to.
Speaker 1:Now we aren't saying that this is going to be easy, because when you do get that ping, that, as you call it, that tendency, that idea to scroll on social media, and instead, when you pivot and you say no, no, no, I'm going to prioritize myself, prioritize my self-discovery, my soul, evolution, my health, my happiness, my manifestations, whatever all of those things when you decide to pivot and sit with yourself if you haven't done that before, even if you have, that could be uncomfortable because emotions are going to come up. And when those emotions come up that's why we bring this up you get to bring them to the surface to be aware, realized, understood, integrated, healed To be aware, realized, understood, integrated, healed, released all of the things. 90% of healing work is awareness. So, when you are avoiding parts of you that keep trying to come up to the surface, once you turn it and have the awareness of that, 90% of the work is done, because now you will have that awareness forever. It does not leave, and the universe supports you in moving forward in that way. So, with this being a nine-nine, with this being a nine-year, the universe is asking you to sit with yourself and let these emotions come to the surface so that you can feel them and have awareness of them.
Speaker 1:And if you do not do this in a proactive way, much like we've talked about before, the universe will find ways for you we don't like to use the word forced but for you to have no other option but to look at these areas. That's why you hear so many success stories coming from the rock bottom because someone was so comfortable in where they were for so long they weren't able to actually turn the page and step into their highest evolution without hitting some sort of rock bottom. But that doesn't need to be the case. You can take the reins and start to shake the tree, shake the energy, make a different choice, pivot, realign, look at what it is how you are reacting, and act a different way that serves who you want to be in the future and what you want to call in. And we're not saying something bad will happen, that you will need to look at this, but different things that might be uncomfortable, or things that are coming into your area that are not easy to deal with, or a way that is making you look at things from a different perspective, a way that is making you look at things from a different perspective.
Speaker 1:We also want to say that the physical body has a big part of this too, and honoring your physical vessel. You are a soul. You are a soul here to live, to breathe, to learn, to grow. You are in this physical body to do all of those things. So the physical body might feel tired, achy, you might even have something happen with the physical body where you feel a pain or something in that way, and that is this energy manifesting, so that you can be in stillness and be with yourself and feel that energy, feel the energy of what this pain is teaching you.
Speaker 1:If we can't excavate and go into the cave and go into the mountain, go into the vast forest and look and feel and pull apart the layers to understand how we can get to our authentic self. Then those lessons come to us and the more repressed, the more avoidance. The more filling the time with things that are not evolving you as a soul on this planet, the more and bigger these things are. So a beautiful practice to have is to take these times where you find the areas that you are not mind numbing and to instead sit with yourself and just be. We're not saying you need to do this 24 hours a day, just start to introduce it.
Speaker 1:We still want you to enjoy where you are on your planet, in the 3D, the beautiful technology that you have, the beautiful humor that you have, the TV shows, the social media, the video games, the coffee, all of the things. We want all of that to still happen. You are here to enjoy and to enjoy those things and feel the tangible things and have that dopamine and that reaction. But we also want you to be a creator for your own dopamine and your own healing. This is a beautiful practice to step into and a mantra or an affirmation that you can say to your guides, to the universe. Whomever you want to speak with, is universe.
Speaker 1:Make the first sign so clear that I take the steps to align myself to inner love, inner peace and my authenticity.
Speaker 1:Make the first step so clear that I align myself with inner love, inner peace and my own authenticity. Or, as simple as make the first step so clear, there is no question that I would listen to that guiding voice, listen to what I'm feeling and no longer procrastinate. We send you love, we send you healing. We send you healing every single day. We send you healing in every single way. Call upon us if you ever want a healing.
