S2 11 Crystal Grids, Divine Feminine, and Reclamation with Amber Acacio

Juliette Karaman / Amber Acacio Season 2 Episode 11

Welcome back to The Scrumptious Woman! In this episode, I’m joined by the incredible Amber Acacio, a crystal grid artist and energy worker. Amber and I dive deep into the magic of crystal grids, the divine feminine, and the power of self-reclamation. This one’s a truly special episode, as Amber created a bespoke crystal grid for this podcast, filled with intention, love, and powerful energy for you, my listeners.

Amber shares her beautiful process of creating this grid, from the early morning inspiration to the spiritual messages she received along the way. We talk about the importance of slowing down, reconnecting with our bodies, and how we can navigate the chaos of the world by trusting our inner compass. There’s so much wisdom and heart in this conversation, and I know you’re going to feel the transmission as deeply as I did.

Juliette Karaman: [00:00:00] Good evening, good morning, good middle of the day, wherever you are. And welcome to this scrumptious woman I have with me the most incredible Amber, who I met in Tulum for the first time in person. And when we met, it felt like it has been lifetimes. There were so many bits where we just felt really aligned and. Just sitting next to her, I got so many down notes and I'm like, oh, is this what you do? And she's so she makes the most beautiful crystal grids and is actually on this earth to, I'm getting goosebumps. All right. I wasn't gonna introduce you, but apparently I am to really create a new path and open certain portals in certain. [00:01:00] Countries in certain cities and certain locations. And what I'm getting now is also she activates not only the places, but also the people that she's in touch with. Amber, welcome 

Amber Acacio: Juliette. Thank you. That was such a beautiful introduction. Thank you for that. 

Juliette Karaman: That yeah, that was an interesting thing that came through for you.

Introducing you. 

Amber Acacio: The beautiful thing is this morning has been just an amazing, powerful morning, and I have a surprise for you, Uhhuh. I was inspired to lay out a crystal grid. For the Scrumptious Woman Podcast. 

Juliette Karaman: Oh, how beautiful.

Can we see it? 

Amber Acacio: Yeah, I'm trying to figure out the best way. [00:02:00] So I don't know how to get it on here 'cause it's on my phone. But I also have it off to the side. So what is the best way, let me see. I'm gonna send it to you in Telegram for right now. Because what I was thinking is I've made a, I made a time lapse video of the grid setup and layout this morning, and so I wanted to be able to share that with you. But for right now, what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna send you a picture. The final, the final outcome.

Okay. It's on its way through the ether. 

Juliette Karaman: And for our listeners, we will include a link to this picture actually in the show notes so that you can start to understand what. A crystal grid actually looks like, yeah, you'll probably have some sensations and you'll feel it as well. Amber, tell me a bit more [00:03:00] about this.

Oh my god. With the roses and, 

Amber Acacio: yes. Yes. It's stunning. It was a delightful experience to create this morning. But before that, I was having. Some beautiful information that I just wanted to be able to share with your listeners because part of when we were in Tulum, I'm wearing my Tulum garb right now.

I have my fuzzy slippers on. I have my Magic and Miracles satin robe, and so I was just really feeling connected to. To that time and that space when we did meet. And it was just this beautiful connection and I felt like you were one of my sisters that I just hadn't met yet. And it was completely, just so lovely to have been able to cross paths in this life.

It was this beautiful connection.

And we, I felt like we had worked together before and we were working together again. I felt like there [00:04:00] was this connection of us working together in some sort of purpose going forward. And then I listened to you speak and you speak about safety and reclamation and supporting this divine feminine rising back up again.

And I was like, yes, and yes. There's something here. And I was sitting listening to my own heart talk. And it just said, lay out a crystal grid and share this with them and share the messages that are gonna come through as a result of laying that out. So that's what I wanna offer to you and to your listeners.

Juliette Karaman: Yes, please. We receive 

Amber Acacio: crystal grid,

And tell the, and share the story of how it came through. 

Juliette Karaman: I'd [00:05:00] love that because this is actually such a beautiful way to demonstrate the work that you do here. And for people who don't understand crystal grids, this is a beautiful way to explain it and it's so stunning. 

Amber Acacio: Yes. It's so how I use crystals and I talk about crystals is it's a physical representation of energy that's present.

Oftentimes it's hard to see the energy, and so crystals are a physical representation of the energies that are happening, and so laying them out then provides a picture of something I can see, something I can touch, something I can feel. That's the beauty of using the crystals in the energy work.

So I was really feeling

there's a lot of, there's like a lot of energy that's flowing through. But what I was really [00:06:00]feeling was this connection to the women that listen to your podcast and that you are here to serve. It's such a beautiful connection because at one point I felt this relaxation and this safety flow through,

and I just spent some time really just sitting in it, this relaxation and this safety, this frequency. It was just so beautiful. It's like, that's Juliette. That's what she offers. That's what is coming through right now for me to feel. So I woke up this morning at 4:00 AM

' cause I get signals when to start and I started with actually listening to a transmission or a meditation and it was really speaking to clearing. [00:07:00] Clearing the family lines, and I took that to be a part of this offering is a means of clearing some of the ancestral family lines for your podcast listeners.

So once I finished and completed listening to that, it was time for me to get up and start working and about. Five 30 is when I started working the crystal grid. And that was dark, it's dark in my time, or it's dark in my area at five 30 in the morning. And I had pulled an Oracle card the night before and it's called The Deck.

The Oracle deck is called the Oracle of Portals by Tess Whitehurst. The card that I pulled was the sunrise card, and so I knew that I was gonna be laying out this [00:08:00] grid in support of sunrise, the sunrise, the new day,

and in this book it says every sunrise is a portal filled with magic and possibility. Much like the miraculous moment when the pristine liquid light of the sun newly appears on the horizon. A beautiful new day is dawning in your life. Now, on this new day, you are free to create a fresh life pattern and momentum for yourself.

You are free to release yesterday completely and to arise renewed in body, mind, and spirit.

And I thought, how beautiful and how fitting stunning. So when I started gathering my tools and it was a dozen roses, some candles, some beautiful crystals of rhodonite, rhodochrosite, [00:09:00] clear quartz, and some lemerian quartz. Then I grabbed my onk and my cartouche and my crystal from Egypt. 

Juliette Karaman: Hello Egypt. You are very present.

Amber Acacio: Egypt. Egypt was very, we worked together 

Juliette Karaman: in Egypt long time ago, 

Amber Acacio: and then I started laying it out. And so what ended up happening is there was a, also a light language transmission that came through. And there's there's a part where I started writing out the Scrumptious Woman podcast, and then there was a whole bunch of information that came flowing through on the piece of paper.

And after that, I was instructed to cut the piece of paper. And so I, it, I actually cut out the words, the Scrumptious Woman Podcast in the shape of a yoni. 

Juliette Karaman: How wonderful, 

Amber Acacio: and I laid it [00:10:00] down in the middle of my workspace and set the onk on top, and the next step was to lay out two triangles of roses, which then became a Merkabah, the shape of a Merkabah.

So there was a healing that was taking place. Getting ready to lay out the stones because this was the place where the stones were gonna be laid out. 

So there was just this beautiful moment of connection, of honoring, of calling in the divine helpers, and I heard. Isis,

Sekmet and Kali,

they were here to assist. And this was of course in the darkness, right? There was no sunshine and it was all under candlelight. So I had [00:11:00] candles that were lighting up my workspace. So that was phase one.

My heart is just really beating right now. It's just like coming to life.

Like it's, there's this resurrection this recla reclamation of power. This coming back to our hearts and our heart centers and really feeling that heartbeat. It and then came phase two. That was only phase one. That was only phase one, then came phase two 

Juliette Karaman: I'm already so deep in this. I can feel my whole body is vibrating at a different frequency.

My hands are tingling like crazy. Just, yeah. Yeah. Continue, please. Yes, I'm receiving. 

Amber Acacio: So then the next step was to place the crystals in their locations. 

Juliette Karaman: Yeah. 

Amber Acacio: So we cleared [00:12:00] the roses, cleared the onk, and moved the cutout piece of paper and put it with the other two parts of the paper so that they could all be complete.

Again. The picture is complete again. Then the crystals were laid out with a beautiful, clear quartz tower, natural tower in the middle. And then the rhodonite is extending from the north, south, east, and west positions. And when I work with that stone, that represents the divine feminine for me.

So there's emotional support, nurturing, and just calling in that divine mother kind of essence to help us when we need it.

And then I laid out the quartz points, which then [00:13:00] amplifies it spreads the energy out. In all directions and amplifies the energy. And then there was a row of prosites, which again is a very feminine, emotionally supportive stone. And then the outer ring is rose quartz, which represents the unconditional love that is present.

All things and in all places that we can connect to at any time.

And I just let it sit and I stayed present and then the sun rose and gave it new light, a new day, a new start.

Juliette Karaman: What a beautiful gift.

What a beautiful gift to our listeners. To me. [00:14:00] Usually I'm the one asking questions, but I've just sat back and received this transmission. But it's also giving everyone an idea, a direct transmission of what it is like. What the process is that you go through, and for our listeners to know, I showed up an hour late for this call somehow.

Got it. But the perfection of that is also I saw it and I showed up anyway and thank God you were still there, right? And you knew that it had to be today, beautiful. 

Amber Acacio: Yeah. Yeah, today, April 1st it's a new, it's the first of any month is like a new start, but we have a really important new start and that's, Neptune just moved into Aries and what goes along with that.

I was watching a video [00:15:00] of an astrologer talking about this, and what this is it's a spiritual revolution that's. Starting to take action. And I see that as dropping the sword. 

And shining our hearts and walking through life with our heart, and that's the revolution.

Juliette Karaman: It is so funny. I've been using Reclamation and Revolution actually in my copy for a program that touch base the reclamation basically, where it really pulls in everyone that knows that through touch and through opening the heart. That is how we awaken. And when this came through, I'm like. I'm teaching people to have safe touch and to be embodied and to have centrality and get back in pleasure with their body.

And all of this came through and I was like, oh, [00:16:00] interesting. So hear you that. So many of us at the moment are hearing this call, and the beauty I think, is also that the younger generation is hearing it really loud and clear. I'm always in awe of. My daughters in their generation, early twenties, that they are very conscious and aware of what is happening on this planet and how we can get back to a place of love and especially where.

What's happening in the Middle East? What's happening in America is quite scary at the moment. What's happening? Yeah. In lots of different places in Africa and even here in Europe and in Russia and the Ukraine and yeah, there's so many places of conflict. And so [00:17:00] fear-based that that is the lower frequency where people just hang out in and where it really, it feels like there are a lot of US leaders, let's just say it are showing the way and we really are.

The way show is saying Hey, it doesn't have to be this way. Yes. Absolutely. 

Amber Acacio: Yeah. So I do a lot of automatic writing and I had another message that, came through a few days ago and I'd like to share that also. 

Juliette Karaman: Absolutely. More. 

Amber Acacio: Yeah. It aligns with what you were just talking about. That there's really a lot of moving parts and pieces.

There's just a lot of chaos. There's a lot of turmoil. And that can be really difficult to navigate for people. And so this was [00:18:00] a message that came through that just shared that the best thing right now is to go inward. To build the trust with your inner knowing

that these times that we are experiencing right now, it's a breaking down. It's there. These systems have been in place for a long time and they're no longer supporting the all. They never were supporting the all, and that's why it's time for them to break down. So there's gonna be new systems created, but those who are here to build and create need to block out the noise and trust their inner compass,

which is in their heart center or in their body,

that. It's time to take some messy action, and we're [00:19:00] here to find the frequency of joy and follow it. No matter what is happening outside of ourselves, it's time to hold these higher frequencies and anchor them into our daily lives.

And I love that you teach. The pleasure and the safety and feeling just feeling again. Some of the women, we forgot how to feel. It becomes numb and it's frozen and it's a process of coming back and feeling safe within our bodies. 

And as we feel safe within our bodies. Then we can finally tap into that pleasure and that joy and that fun and that laughter and use that absolutely as our navigation system.

Juliette Karaman: And that's, I think, where over the last few decades we've really seen where women are taking roles as in, [00:20:00] in business, and have had to. Turn off that pleasure center a little bit because they've had to be quite masculine in, in, in getting things done. And we all have that inter intertwining of masculine and feminine in us, but to get shit done oftentimes it's okay, let's turn up the dial a little bit on my masculine so that I can actually get stuff done because yeah, otherwise I'll just not get it.

And there's become, there's been a schism where people don't want to be feminine. We don't want to feel anymore because it's, it can be a hella uncomfortable to feel. And to feel all the sensations. When I talk about pleasure, it's not sexual pleasure. It is actually that. That orgasm, that she, that life force that comes through you and that can be very sensation full.[00:21:00]

And we talk about Shakti awakening and people actually when this whole this starts to move in their body, that sometimes it's just too much and they have to shut down. And so it's very sensation full. And we can grow that capacity, right? We don't have to blow out and think we have to do this in one day.

But when you do start becoming aware of that sensation and of your capacity, then also your ability to really experience the most incredible sensations in life by just having. Someone even touch you from, not touch you, but energetically touch you. Say even like I can do this across the ether now and touch you and you can feel it in your heart and people can have energetic orgasms and the way we start [00:22:00] eating and start really discovering the scrump, the beauty of life, but also the sacredness.

I can slow down a little bit and notice the sacredness of what we're, of who we are.

Amber Acacio: I love that. And that was exactly what was happening this morning was once I finished laying out the grid, I went and had a cup of tea, and then I went and had a bath. Okay. And so it was just this, Ooh, this is Juliette. This is the scrmptiousness of what my morning could be like. This is really feeling and relaxing and calming down my body.

Because there's just, there's so much happening that it's really easy to just [00:23:00] get. Spun up and spun out. And it's a practice to bring it back in. Yeah. 

Juliette Karaman: Yeah. 

Amber Acacio: Be, it's a practice when all that noise is happening outside, there's so many distractions, there's so many things that take your energy.

Siphon it away, or that you unknowingly give it somewhere, and then we wonder why we're so tired, we're so burnt out. 

And it's bring it back in. Reclaim that, right? There's a reclamation of energetics that goes along with reclaiming of the power, reclaiming of the voice, reclaiming of the creativity.

Reclaiming of the love and the worthiness. Yeah, 

Juliette Karaman: it's a reclamation of self, right? Reclaim the pussy as well, and Yeah. Yeah. Have to of [00:24:00] course, add that in there. But it's really the reclamation of even the smallest parts of you, of the one that felt unheard of everything of the one that was hurt.

The one that someone touched them or looked at them. In a way that had them brace, and now they're walking around bracing the rest of their lives slightly hesitant about who they are. I love that we're all doing the same thing in our own way, and your way is so beautiful to, ah. To bring crystals into this, to use your automatic writing, to really have this be as a support for people, that they can Yes. Like lean, open into, 

Amber Acacio: yeah. It's one [00:25:00] of the things that I wish I had when I was younger. That support. And really having something that was just, that was tangibly present. And that's what I'm offering is that support. So people stepping into their leadership, people who are confused, who are lost or maybe working through a transition.

I'm here to help. I'm here to support that. And oftentimes what ends up happening is I lay out these crystals and then the crystals tell the story. The crystals share. Here are the energies that are working and moving. Here's what we need to clear and here's what we're here to embody. And so there's a beautiful story that happens every time I do one of these crystal grids.

And it's really a practice to be present with them because it's not fast, it's not, this wham bam, [00:26:00]thank you ma'am. Kind of experience. There. 

Juliette Karaman: There's 

Amber Acacio: not 

Juliette Karaman: that. 

Amber Acacio:

Juliette Karaman: think we've had a little bit enough of wham bam, thank you. Anyway. Some people like it 

Amber Acacio: fast so it's this beautiful connection and this.

The sessions that I do, they, they tend to run over the course of several days. And so there's this beautiful unfolding, and it's with grace and ease that the information flows through. And then you can have this support, this connection. This person who's there who knows who feels who, intuits.

And can hold space.

Juliette Karaman: Beautiful. Amber, we'll put everything in the show notes, but tell people how can they get in contact with you. What's the best way? 

Amber Acacio: Yeah, I'm just getting started. This is so exciting. My blog https://www.amberacacio.com/. [00:27:00] Where I share my contemplations and what's going on and what I feel and where I share automatic writing.

So there's messages that come through for whoever is there to receive them. I also am just getting started in a YouTube channel so I signed up for it in 2022. I've had some, some issues with being seen and heard. And about two and a half weeks ago, I finally started actually posting videos. 

Juliette Karaman: I have 

Amber Acacio: This connection to perfectionism that I'm trying to.

To to mitigate. And so my videos are of the, oh yeah, I know that one 

Juliette Karaman: really well. But when it comes down that, when it comes through that quickly, we have perfectionist. 

Amber Acacio: So rough and raw videos, and I am just authentically sharing what is happening at that time with [00:28:00] whoever comes. I've been working with some.

Very powerful energies. It feels like there is a lot of heart energy that's coming online, and so we're continuing to just anchor that in to support people with their own heart centers and having their heart centers light up so they connect with their passion and their purpose. And clearing the places and the spaces and the people that are ready to work with me

Juliette Karaman: so much. And so the depth of this work is really beautiful to witness. Amber, thank you so much. We'll put all your information in the show notes. We'll put a link to the photo of the crystal grid so that everyone can actually understand what it looks like, what you were talking about. 

Amber Acacio: I would [00:29:00] love to include a little video of it.

Juliette Karaman: Oh, perfect. Yes, send it to me and I'll definitely include that as well. That would be wonderful. 

Amber Acacio: Great. I have to figure out how to put them together, but. The finger hit the button and it stopped, and I had to restart it. So now I have to get them the two pieces put together so you can see the whole thing.

So I 

Juliette Karaman: will 

Amber Acacio: do that. 

Juliette Karaman: Beautiful. So I don't know if a lot of people know how this works. I, for me it's new. I'm learning. I am not always sure, but I'm feeling the transmission more than anything else. And I think this is what you really need to just. No needs, but this is what I would invite people to.

It's feel it. You felt something in our transmission. In this session today, go to the show notes. Have a look at the photo, have a look at the video. Have a look at where Amber hangs out. Read her transmissions. [00:30:00] It's been wonderful having you on. Thank you so much my love. Thank you, Juliette.

It's been a pleasure.
