Notes
Note from 4/1
This might be the greatest question we could ask:
What is love?
Love is a power / force,
an inspiring energy,
a driving desire to be generous with no thought of self or consequence,
a connection that crosses divides and even leaves our mind thinking “why do I love you when my mind is struggling to like you right now?”
But my favorite and the best answer I have found is that “God is love.”
I have come to experience God as the being who is love itself embodied into sentient form. And his / her energy is something that can flow through us, those are the moments that we feel we are truly alive. How to live a life where that happens often… well, that is the journey I am on. Discovering how to flow with and cultivate love in every area of my life. To organize my life around love instead of legalism. It’s been a long journey but the most rewarding thing I have ever done.
If you’re intrigued, I have a topical collection of channeled messages from my angels where they teach about love. You can find it in the collection called “Powers of Love.”

Note from 4/30
One of the problems with having my spiritual experiences is that sharing becomes awkward…
Others can easily share what they are excited about.
But when I share the things that excite me, I’m at risk of becoming a spectacle for the rest of the group.
Sometimes it’s shock and awe. Other times it’s upset and a desire to control me for “coloring outside of the lines.”
Talking about your latest haircut is safe, that’s the sort of thing other women excitedly share about.
Talking about how a dragon recently interacted with you… That’s different…
I learned to “keep a lid” on my experiences, that sharing can be dangerous.
That’s why I am creating a space where it is safe to share without being treated like you’re a weirdo or a superstar.
Because, sharing in a space where channeling angels and experiencing the sentience of nature is “normal,” has been a healing experience for me.
So I’m creating that context for others.
That’s why I’ve gone first and shared my experiences, which honestly feels vulnerable…
To let you know that I’m putting myself “out there” too.
If you have spiritual experiences and you want to share them, this is a place where you can do that, and find others sharing too.
If you’ve had an experience that you’ve been holding to your chest, whether with an angel, a dryad, UFO or something else feel free to share it in the comments.
I’m listening.

Note from 4/8
We cannot truly experience the “out there” without the “in here” first. I have found that there are two types of spirituality: 1) escapism and 2) spirituality that is rooted and metabolized (often slowly.)
Rooted, accessible spirituality is something I am passionate about.
If we pursue advanced and intermediate spirituality there will be plenty of wonder and far-away things to fill our cup. There is no need to dazzle or impress, what will be the most important going forward is establishing the roots to sustain the growth that will happen. Lest we become imbalanced and fall over from the weight of “top heavy” experiences like an uprooted tree…

Note from 4/5
I struggled to become a content creator. The market already felt so over-saturated. There are already millions of people talking about spirituality. But even with so many voices, I struggled to find more than a few who were sharing the type of material I needed. It was rare to find intermediate or advanced content.
I also struggled to find those who were wiling to pull back the curtain and be vulnerable, to let others see how mysticism is lived out in their own lives.
That was when I realized I needed to share… Every time something turned me off, it was just a sign that I needed to do that thing differently on my own page. To fill the gap I have felt for years.
On Interviewing Angels you won’t find fancy jargon aimed at impressing you. You will find rooted spirituality with approachable language.
You will find substance without distraction or gimmicks.
And you will find me talking about how I live out spirituality in my own life…
You will find my first-hand experiences shared honestly, not re-packaged or watered down.
If this sounds like something you want to explore, subscribe to my page.
And keep an eye out for the upcoming resources designed sharpen your connection with the spiritual realm.
Highlights from the Comments

from David Knight AscensionForYou
Interesting article indeed! Spirits/ entity’s/ beings from other dimensions filter in and out of our consciousness and can often appear in dreams.... mediation etc.
Last year a reptilian appeared in my dream.. i was in a kitchen and heard knock on the door. Beyond the house / outside was a courtyard and shops.. . This reptilian had a humanoid form... scales.. a few feet of tail... stood upright and had sort of a ‘frog’ type face with large sharp teeth . I opened the door.. it was on a catch/ chain. I assumed it was a male. I was on the telephone... ‘He’ wanted to borrow a phone... i replied “ sorry i can’t... I’m using it “ He went off into a nearby shop and all of a sudden the shop went dark.. flashing lights and smashing of things.
In the 90s Spirit said to me to always ask those who draw near .. things like . ‘Do you come in the name of love and Light? Is your purpose to share and receive truth in God’s name?
Thanks for continuing to share your articles and wonderful gifts... of wisdom and knowledge Willow.
Peace,

from Dizzying Speed of a Cup of Tea
This piece truly captivated me—it brings attention to something deeply important. The real gateways of energy and information are within us. The chakras, especially opening backward, can be understood as portals to parallel realms—what the Indian tradition calls Lokas—through which both positive and negative impressions, impulses, and guidance may arrive.
Recognizing and learning to navigate this is, I feel, one of the essential tasks of our human life.
Your writing carries both clarity and depth—it invites awareness without fear. Thank you for this powerful and eye-opening piece.

from Oneness Awareness
It is “the state of a person that causes them to change.” No truer words about change have ever been spoken!
“This is why you can never argue someone into the kingdom, indeed argument changes no one’s mind on anything, unless they are already hungry. Unless they are already seeking and open to change, then arguments can hold sway over them, but only then. It is not the tool, but the state of a person that causes them to change.”

I love these experiences. I went to bed one night, maybe in 2021, and all of sudden there was a black dragon and her babies. They were playing with my cat. I'm not sure her name, she doesn't pop in too often, but I have a rainbow dragon with me daily. She gave me a name once and then it completely went away, so now I refuse to call her a different name. I just say, hey Rainbow Dragon. Then I met a massive brown Earth dragon I call Willow. He shows up whenever I go into mediation to a field that helps me heal and reconnect. Looking forward to more stories and see how you guys connect!

Wow this is so awesome!! I saw an underwater dragon once who I was taming in the astral, wonder if I’ll meet him again.

This is so cool. Thrilled to see more dragon content from you, and this being a group series makes it even cooler—I’m eager to read their anecdotes, as well.
Last Month’s Articles
“You humans are living portals. You are gateways.
This is your purpose.”
The “We are Portals” series continued:
Part 2 talks about how and “When Spirits Influence” us throughout our day.
Part 2.5 - Evaluating a Spiritual Source expands on this principle, giving advice for how to discern which spirits have our best interests in mind.
Part 3 - How to Discern Spirits Deepens the conversation from the previous 2 dives. Here, I interact with a reptilian creature who teaches that a being’s nobility cannot be determined simply by his or her species…
Part 4 - Humans Are The Thread Between Realms talks about how humans are a “bridge” and a gateway, belonging both to the spiritual and physical realms. Our purpose is to serve as a thread that unites and stitches the two realms to one another.
Part 5 - Stitching Heaven to Earth Expands on part 4, teaching us to how bring the kingdom of heaven to the earth.
Part 6 - Temples: From Gold to Embodiment. The final chapter released in early May. Here we are taught how the gateway to the spiritual realm has been moved from external temples into our very bodies...

Note from Merdhin Wylde
One of the clearest signs I’m out of alignment is that I start explaining myself too much.
Too much explaining usually means some part of me no longer feels safe being simple and true.
If you keep over-explaining, it may help to ask: am I sharing, or am I trying to earn permission to be myself?

Note from Allysha Lavino
We’ve been taught to think of our gifts as things we’re good at.
Skills. Talents. Personality traits.
But sacred gifts don’t come from practice. They don’t come from effort. They’re something you were born with—they were there before you learned how to perform, adapt, or succeed.
What you’re good at is often just the surface expression.
The real gift is deeper… quieter…and far more powerful than it looks.

Willow:
It is amazing to me how much our cultural thinking has drifted away from this truth.
These deeper things Allysha describes express themselves in different ways over time. Sometimes I have felt frustration when others have tried to box me into a single expression of a deeper gifting.
My own mystic abilities have expressed very differently throughout each season of my life:
in dance as a little girl,
in leading a band and training musicians as a young adult,
and now here in my substack as I translate my spiritual experiences.
All of these were the same root expressing according to my life season and the situation I found myself in.
I believe it is healthy and natural to adapt like this over time. This means learning to see the deeper root is very useful.

Willow:
The insight below is excellent.
My husband and I have been having so many conversations lately about interacting relationally instead of legally. Sadly as my husband put it, “many people prefer to have controller-ships instead of relation-ships.”
Note from Old Man Talks
When someone tells you they preferred the old you, what they’re describing is a terms-of-service violation.
Somewhere in the early years, a set of expectations locked. You were legible. Predictable. Frictionless. That was the service.
The new version violates the contract, not because renegotiation was written out, but because it was never written in.
Some relationships end the contract rather than rewrite it. The structure held exactly as long as you stayed the same.
