What if the biggest changes happening in your life aren't visible yet?

In this episode of Unraveling the Veil, I explore the surprising realization that what looks like a lack of external progress can actually be a season of profound inner healing, spiritual growth, and transformation.

I share my personal experience of entering the summer of 2026 expecting major external changes—only to discover that Spirit had something very different in store. Through dream analysis, journaling, reflection, and spiritual guidance, I began recognizing a deeper progression happening within me.

I explore the relationship between the ego and higher self, the “gas pedal and brake” within us, and what happens when those seemingly opposing parts begin integrating and working together.

I also share a collective ego, higher self, and alignment card reading, featuring:

🍂 Autumn Equinox — Gratitude & Harvest

☀️ Solar Eclipse — Transformation & Awakening

🦊 Fox — Wit & Adaptability

✨ Angel Number 1717 — Independence, Healing & Soul Mission

The episode then goes deeper into ancestral healing and generational patterns through the Sacred Wound of the Withered Root—exploring what happens when the people, family, culture, or environment we came from didn't provide the nourishment we needed to become who we were meant to be.

I share powerful reflection and journaling questions around belonging, family wounds, inherited beliefs, creating new roots, and growing beyond your origin story.

Finally, I discuss divine timing, manifestation, and why I intentionally avoid giving rigid psychic timelines—and follow my intuition to offer the collective a simple message about timing.

If you've been wondering why your manifestations haven't appeared yet, questioning whether you're actually making progress, or feeling like you're in a strange “pause” between chapters, this episode may offer a completely different perspective:

Maybe you're not stuck. Maybe you're becoming.

Listen, reflect, journal, and see what resonates with you. 💫

Everyone, welcome to today's episode of Unraveling the Veil with your host Katie from the Yara Rose.com website. That is Y-A-R-A-R-O-S-E.com. You can also follow me on at Yara Rose Healing on both YouTube and Instagram to keep up with what's going on with me. Now let's get to today's episode. Hi everyone. Welcome back to my podcast. I'm so excited to have you all here today. I absolutely love talking to you and

Or getting feelings that big changes are ahead and being excited about what you think those are, and then they turn out to be nothing like what you thought. I talk about it to you guys all the time, but it's so funny how many times I'm still falling into that same type of pattern where I'm like, I just feel like the summer is gonna be big. I just felt like it was gonna be amazing and I was gonna accomplish all of these things. And I did accomplish a lot of things and I have grown immensely, but it's so funny.

How if you would have asked me way back in May what that feeling was about, I would have had a completely different response than I do now in August because it wasn't the external growth that I thought it would be. It's been more of a summer of internal healing and internal growth. And I know that I have talked about dreams the last two or three episodes. So you're probably sick of hearing about them, but that

what I was hoping to accomplish. And I would have told you all of these external things that I was hoping to tick off the list, right? And now we're here, we're already mid August, and I haven't done that. For the most part. There's a couple things, but not the big list that I would have accomplished that I had I ego wise thought about it. And normally that would have made me a little depressed. A little like, I don't understand what's happening here. I really truly had this feeling of like big movement.

Big changes and nothing happened and I don't understand. Where is the materialization of this feeling that I had been feeling? But with the dream progression, I now look at it as wow, I have made immense progress. I have made immense progress on the inside. I was questioning these things, and now I've already integrated, accepted, and moved through that. And now I'm on to

X, Y, and Z things. And each time, week after week, I'm seeing a progression. Each time I integrate this one thing, and then I think about it and I journal about it. And then my dreams reflect this. And then we go deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper. And here's why that's important. Because instead of feeling frustrated, depressed, confused, I'm excited, y'all. I am so excited about the progression on the inside because I know that when I change my internal vibration.

The external materialization is going to happen. I know that the things that we attract into our lives is based on our own personal plane of attraction. So the more I clean up the inside, the more I heal the inside, the more internal work I do, the more my conscious and unconscious come into alignment, the better my manifestation ability is going to be for the things that I really truly desire. And I'm so excited about that.

I'm so happy that I've been doing such a huge internal cleanup this summer. I'm elated to see what that's gonna translate as. I'm just so excited. I'm so ready to see what we're gonna do next. And I really feel at peace about that. For years now, I've had the ego's expectations for what it wants to accomplish and

I remember in a session with one of my mentors, they were like, You have this full gas pedal to the floor, Katie version, and then you have this breaker version that's constantly breaking. So you have two different versions of KD. One of you is like gas pedal all the way down through the floorboard, ready to go. And then this other one that's constantly like, No, no, stop, stop, stop. In this summer, I am feeling those two Katie's integrate more. They're stopping, they're having a conversation with each other.

That's showing up through the dreams. And it's like the ego wants to do this. And the internal breaker Haiti version is like, but we need to address this belief. We need to address this expectation, this pattern, this wounding, and move through and heal it together. So that way I don't have to be putting my foot on the brake as much. That way I feel more integrated and whole. And we can make these paths together. We can make this journey together in alignment. And that is why you all I'm going to

Do the card spread for ego, higher self, and alignment to integrate for you. This is a specific card spread I do for myself every single day because of what I was just talking about, because I constantly had a division in those aspects of myself. And I wanted to make a conscious daily effort to bring myself into an alignment because one aligned person can make a bigger difference than a million unaligned people. So I

Drew cards for you already. I asked Spirit today what the collective energy is as far as their egos, that ego side of you that really wants to make change, also keep yourself safe. It's the human personality part of you. And then your higher self. So the spirit in you that is not incarnated in your body, but the higher self that's still perfectly in alignment with what your mission was for coming here and how you want to accomplish things. That's the higher self card.

And then there's the bridge to bring those to an alignment so that way whatever you do in this period, you can try to be more in full alignment together. Because when you're in alignment together, great things happen. So without further ado, the card that you guys got for your ego is Autumn Equinox. And it's about

Gratitude and harvest. And I'm gonna read it here. It says, it's a time of harvest, reminding you to give thanks and reflect. Pause to express gratitude for your experiences and the abundance you've gained. Prepare yourself for new opportunities as you enter a phase of reaping your rewards. So it's more a time of reflection. Pause to see where you have accomplished the things that you set out to do and enjoy that. And then your higher self.

For this time period, you got the solar eclipse, which is about transformation and an awakening. A solar eclipse represents intense transformation and awakening. Today you may experience a profound inner shift. Pay attention to sudden revelations and changes as they could lead to far-reaching effects in your life. So to me, the solar eclipse is about being present. So they're kind of already similar energies because one's about reflection and one's about

Being present enough in yourself that you'll feel this revelation come up. You'll feel it arise in you. And with that grounded energy, with this

like a lightning bolt out of nowhere, you'll have a new direction. You'll have a new path for new opportunities. So how do we make them more into alignment, y'all? Your bridge card today was Fox. Wit and adaptability. Today requires adaptability. Change is inevitable, but those who can adjust quickly will find opportunities in the chaos. Stay calm, respond flexibly, and use your cleverness to find the best solution. So as you're sitting grounded in your energy,

Being completely present in the moment, reflecting on the things that you have been able to accomplish and the things that you never even thought you were going to accomplish. It don't have to be huge, y'all. It doesn't have to be I graduated from college. It could be I finally said no, I have a life outside of work too, and I want to do something fun for myself. So no, I don't want to work that extra weekend. It could be something as simple as that. Holding your boundaries, maybe celebrating yourself, doing self-love.

Something for yourself that brings you complete joy and excitement. And maybe you haven't allowed yourself to do that recently because you just didn't think it was worth it. But then you finally decided, wait a minute, my self-care, my love is worth it. I am worth this extra expense. And you did that. It doesn't have to be huge. It's all of these little things that you have either done for yourself or that you've accomplished, or even things that maybe you didn't even set out to do. You're sitting in that present state, you're reflecting on those. And all of a sudden,

You get this new idea, this new inspiration to check this thing out or to follow this, or something pops up that you're just curious about. And then you stay flexible in that. You don't make this huge plan to go around and be like, instantly I'm gonna log into the thing. I'm gonna get all the information. I'm gonna put this into action. No, you're gonna be flexible with that. You're gonna just stay curious and be like, that's really interesting. I'm just gonna note it down and then I'm gonna let it flow and I'm gonna see what happens.

Because it might be a stepping stone to something else, or it might be that you actually are supposed to pursue that at some point, but it's not time to make a new plan right away. It's just sitting in that energy, staying flexible, staying open, and seeing what comes of that. And then I did ask for a spirit number. So that way, spirit heads a number that they could give you in your daily waking life that would remind you of this message and the energy and the feeling of it and validate for you that.

You might not believe it, but you're heading in the right direction. What appears to be a lull in activity is just a natural part of the process. You know, I had an inspiration after I drew these that I wanted to pick a card for you from my sacred woundings to archetypes. I don't know why.

I'm just following my intuition. And I had this feeling like maybe there's something that the collective needs to understand maybe why they're in this state of reflection. What is it that they could benefit from journaling about or reflecting on as well to help them on their path? So I'm gonna ask Spirit right now to please for the collective give me the sacred wounding.

That is most relevant. They say the wound of the withered root. This is a lineage that offers no nourishment. This wound arises when the family, culture, or ancestry meant to ground you instead leaves you feeling unsupported, unseen, or burdened. You search for belonging but find only silence or pain. It can leave you feeling unrooted, spiritually adrift, and yearning to grow from soil that never fed you. I actually do have the guidebook here, and I just want to read it. And then

When I get done reading it, I'm also gonna go to the reflection questions because we are talking about internal reflection. And I feel like there may be things in the guidebook for this specific card that may resonate with you. And I just feel like offering you the questions that maybe you might find one specific question that really resonates with you and that will help you peel back the layers of the onion. So I'm gonna read this. It says, Withered root. You are not disloyal for needing different soil. Author unknown. The withered root is of

Wound formed when the place you came from fails to nourish who you are. Family, culture, or ancestry meant to ground and guide you may instead bring silence, pain, or distortion. You search the soil for something solid, but find only what withers you. Whether through generational trauma, emotional neglect, or inherited shame, your foundation feels more like weight than home. Over time, this can leave you feeling unrooted, spiritually adrift, or unsure how to grow.

When what you came from never fed your becoming. You may look back with longing, only to find absence staring back at you. Physically, this wound may show up as fatigue, lower back pain, or chronic instability in relationships or purpose. Watch for patterns of seeking belonging and unavailable spaces, over identifying with struggle, or feeling guilt for needing more than what was offered. Your root was never broken. It was planted in soil that could not hold you. But new ground is possible.

And you are sacred for choosing to bloom anyway. Suppressing this wound often looks like cutting off your roots entirely, disowning your lineage, avoiding reflection, or convincing yourself you don't need belonging at all. You may protect yourself by disconnecting, yet still feel the phantom ache of origin unmet. This reversal often shows up as in spiritual numbness, identity confusion, or mistrust of any lasting connection. Some may stay silent to keep the peace, while others reject all tradition in hopes of finding themselves.

Untouched by the past. Watch for patterns of isolation, shame around family wounds, or grief with no clear origin. Beneath the disconnection is not betrayal, but a soul still longing to land in something true. You don't have to carry what you came from. You get to grow beyond it. Okay, so some questions to ask yourself if any of this resonates with you. When did I first feel like I didn't belong in the place I came from? How have I earned

Tried to earn love or approval from unavailable roots? What parts of my identity feel shaped more by pain than nourishment? In what ways do I still try to fix or explain the people I came from? Where do I feel the ache of ancestral wounds in my body or spirit? What guilt do I carry for growing beyond my origin story?

Who or what has helped me feel more rooted than my family of origin? What traditions or beliefs no longer fit but still linger in me? What would it look like to create new roots on my own terms? And how can I honor where I came from without being bound by it? It's so funny because I read all that. I've been working on, like I said, this summer and cleaning up my inside vibration and and the different things that have come forward with me through generations and

Life experience. And I was in a session with my mentor a couple of weeks ago. And she's like, I don't know what it is about you. Your energy just feels so different. It feels so grounded. But then she quickly tried to retract the word grounded because I think she was trying to search for a better word. I'm not really sure, but it was funny because I watched her backtrack and I was like, No, that is actually the word you're looking for. And I'm said, I was talking to my spiritual community this year and I told them that I wanted to work on being more grounded regardless.

Of the atmosphere I'm in. I want to be so grounded and rooted in a who I am. And then in B in their and my connection together, their support, their unconditional love, their constant being there, so grounded in that connection that it doesn't matter what the outside world looks like. It doesn't matter what's happening. I know.

that I will be okay, that we will together move through it, whatever it is, because in the last how many years there have been so many times where I let the external environment throw me off my game. And I'll get really strong on my momentum and I'll finally feel like I'm picking up pace. And then something will pop up and it'll just deflate me.

And I'll have to start all over again because I completely put all my attention in that. And I'm like, why is this happening? Maybe I'm not meant to move forward because you know this happened. So maybe that's what I'm supposed to be focusing on. And I was like, you know what? Life's never gonna be perfect. Life's never gonna have every single thing running so smoothly that I can focus on this one area with all my intensity. There's always gonna be little things that pop up. And I wanna be so strong in that relationship, so grounded in my being.

That I am able to handle whatever it is while still maintaining momentum toward what I am building and what I'm working on in my next chapter. I also don't want to be so focused on that next chapter that I don't take the time to deal with appropriately whatever just popped up. So it's a balance and it's staying grounded and rooted in who I am, who I am becoming.

And who I want to be. And it's been really exciting. That's one of my autumn moments that I'm reflecting on is this was my goal that I spoke with them about. And this is where I have become. Not only I feel it inside, the dreams support that evolution. And my mentors are seeing that and reading that in my energy and speaking with me. And that to me is such amazing progress. I'm so thrilled about that. It's funny when you tell spirit.

you know, even your inner self when you journal about like this is what I want to see. And you know how the law of attraction works and you know that you have to vibrate at that feeling and then you have to be that and then it will inevitably come. It's law. It has to. If you do not have resistance in your energy field that bounce it back, it has to come. You're vibrating for it. You believe in it. Your vibration is attracting that outcome. So it's funny to me sometimes how I'll have goals like that.

And I will speak with them about it. But then it's like my ego forgets that I put that out there. I don't know what it is, but I think I just get busy with life, then I don't really think about it. But I forget that I had put it out there. And then something like this will happen where my dreams have been showing it. And then I've been seeing validation of it externally. And then it reminds me, my gosh, wow, I put that out there. I put that goal. I wrote it and I forgot about it. I didn't make it all consuming and make it my only drive.

I just let it come to me. I trusted that the universe and myself would take care of it. I committed to it, I let it go, and here I am. And that's so awesome. That is so great. And I don't know why I felt this urge because it seems counterintuitive. But I also grabbed my timing deck, which is interesting because I don't want you to lock in with time period of anything. But I just felt like there was some people in.

my audience that would have a question about the timing of something. So I'm gonna word it like this, but I wanna say this before I do that. I have had many times where I've worked with multiple different mentors and we have a session about

something and they give me a timeline. And this is why FYI, I do not do psychic readings because there's so many factors that can change. Just me doing a psychic reading with you could completely ruin the timeline because now you're a different person. You have this energy of knowing this timeline. And then everything in your vibration changes because of that. So I don't do psychic readings because I've seen personally how many times someone telling me a timeline messes with my timeline.

And that timeline collapses. As soon as they tell me it, it collapses because I put way too much emphasis on, this is gonna happen at this time. So I'm gonna do this, this, this, this, and I'm gonna help it. And then I get to that point where I have too much resistance built up because I know it's gonna come. I know it's gonna come. And then that wanting it, needing it so badly blocks it. And then it collapses and a new timeline exists. So I don't do that. I do not do that in personal readings. I don't do that on here. There's just too many factors in there to provide that for you.

With that being said, I trust my intuition and my intuition says there is somebody out there that would like and benefit immensely from having a vague timeline, knowing that this could change. So I'm not even gonna ask what this timeline's for. I'm gonna let you ask. So spirit, the audience needs a timeline. They need to know when X, Y, or Z are gonna occur. Can you please tap into the best timeline answer for them?

Okay. A few weeks, y'all. Whatever your question was, as long as everything doesn't get boggled up and you're needing it to be here now, whatever it is you're looking for could be here in a few weeks. Just like I said, you

put it out there, you leave it, and you let it manifest. And with that, I'm going to end today's podcast episode. As always, I appreciate you guys so much for listening, tuning in, and watching however you consume my content. I hope that you guys are able to integrate this lesson and that there was something useful that really resonated with you today. I love you all so much and I can't wait to speak with you again soon. Thank you so much for joining me on today's episode. I wish you the most love, light,

An inspiration with all of my love, Katie.
