Episode 107: The God Wound (Part 2): How Subconscious Vows Impact Financial Success

Money Magic Podcast

In this week's episode Vangile talks about the God Wound and her personal experiences and insights from her own journey, highlighting how she discovered her anger and resentment towards the Divine. She recounts how her intense efforts in spiritual practices, such as chanting and EFT tapping, were often driven by a subconscious desire to prove the unfairness of the Divine.

This internal conflict created resistance to financial success and personal expansion. Through deep inner work and meditations, she uncovered vows she had made to highlight her suffering and prove the divine's unfairness, which were major blocks to her financial growth.

She also discusses research that supports the impact of trauma on religious beliefs and practices, noting how external threats and communal sacrifices can strengthen religious bonds and resilience.

She explores the idea that suffering is often seen as sacred and how this belief can hinder financial success and personal joy. She challenges the notion that divinity requires suffering and suggests that a relationship with the divine can be based on joy, expansion, and love instead.
