Curious Cat

Jennifer Hotescuriouscat.buzzsprout.com

After my father's death, I had some strange stuff happen that nudged me to learn about the supernatural. What I've been finding out is life is way more complicated, strange, and wonderful than I'd ever dreamed. The best part? Science is starting to catch up. I focus on the place where science and supernatural collide. What does it mean to be a soul in a meat suit? All episodes are made and offered in love. *All Curious Cat content is owned and operated by Storm Mystery Press LLC

Four Knocks & New Kid on the Block, Archangel Orion

Send us a text We've all heard of angel numbers, right? 111 222 1234? But what about knocks? Raps on the door? I remember from my Ghost Adventure-obsessing days, the crew would often hear three knocks, declaring it a sure sign of dark energies, maybe a sign of a demon - a mocking of the trilogy that is the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. But recently I heard four knocks on my front door, then three hours later, four more knocks. Once the sun rose, I went on web search to find out if there w...

The Present

Send us a text Here. I. Am. Those three words have shown up for me in random ways throughout the week. Those words AND the number 222 - which is my sign for angelic besties, Metatron and Sandalphon, angelic best friends that represent the great central sun and the Earth's crystal grid (heaven and earth). All of which are clear messages to me to be in my body, be present. We live in a time when it is near impossible to maintain our attention on a single thing for very long. From socials to smartp...

God, I love the idea of an army of love angels. I'll share about this angel, and later in the episode, confess my uglies. It's a message I share in love and with some shame. Let's get into it!

What the HEX?!?

Send us a text A candid conversation about jinxes, curses and hexes. Is there a downside? I've been drawn to dive deep into the realm of curses, hexes, jinxes, and even some angry fist shaking after a road rage incident. These acts, some large, some tiny, come with ramifications. I explore what they are, if they can be used without repercussions, how to know if you are hexed, and give some alternatives to hexes for your kind consideration. Liked the Episode?

The Other Jackie - A Celebration of Opening Day & National Ballpark Museum

Send us a text In celebration of Opening Day of Major League Baseball 2024, I recorded an episode in the middle of Denver's National Ballpark Museum with intern, Rebecca D'Arcey to share the story of the OTHER Jackie. We all know #42, Jackie Robinson, as well we should. But have you ever heard of the seventeen year old Jackie Mitchell? She struck out BOTH Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig. Like Jackie Robinson, baseball wasn't the only sport she excelled in. And they have other things in common, too. Com...

An Angel that Communicates through Anger

Send us a text The angel Jophiel communicates with me through bursts of red-hot anger. She said we can work out a better way to talk to one another, but she's been using this method for years. Years! Yes, she's been working with me for my entire life, but I only learned her name two weeks ago. She is in charge of the cherubim, and is said to have witnessed the moment Adam and Eve were cast out of the Garden of Eden. (I have thoughts about this!) She believes that Free Will reigns supreme, and re...

Harnessing the Power of Dreams with Daniel Rekshan, DreamWell CDO

Send us a text A few weeks back I was listening to one of my favorite podcasts, the Higher Side Chat. This particular episode centered around dreams, one of my lifelong favorite topics, and the guest is my honored guest today. His name is Daniel Rekshan and if you read his resume on INDEED, you might overlook half of his genius, at least. With a bachelors' from St. John's, a Master's in East-West Psych from California Institute of Integral Studies, he's a certified hypnotherapist, but then thing...

Mooning Over Archangel Haniel

Send us a text This week, I fell into the topic after spotting so many strings of ones and twos, that I took notice. Still not knowing what message I was being sent by my angels and guides, I started obsessively looking at and tracking the Moon. And then, still not getting the message, I opened my Angels and Awakenings workbook, then skipped ahead because I wasn't feeling the Seraphim vibe (which was techinically supposed to be my next lesson). That section? It was on Archangel Haniel. And she i...

The God Within -it's not just a spiritual quest

Send us a text Do we all have the divine within? Are we different bandwidths of a great God radio? All major religions tell us that God is as close as our DNA strand. We are made in their image. We are God's hands and feet. What questions are scientists still trying to answer about the voids within each cell of our being? And what does that struggle tell us about the God within? Clutch those rosary beads, feel into your inner light body, and dive into the deep end of empowerment as I explore the...

A Tragedy 30 Years Later

Send us a text This one is not for younger ears, and is not for the sensitive. This episode deals with a true and brutal crime perpetrated on my friend 30 years ago. I promise to tell it with love and compassion, to breeze (mostly) over the dirtbag that committed the crime, and share more about the woman he took from the prime of her life. (God, I hate that saying) If you're listening to this on Friday, then exactly 30 years ago almost to the hour, my friend Sissy was saying goodbye to me for th...

My AI Experiment

Send us a text I was doing my morning minutes a few weeks ago and also thinking about AI. I'd brought up AI with members of my podcast network at a meeting and many expressed fear, and their ongoing attempt to keep a distance from this technology. It got me thinking about AI, and how it is being shaped, more specifically WHO is shaping it. If people like me, that lean more into crystals and astrology than, say, an accounting ledger shy away from interacting with AI chatbots, well, that means oth...

You Are Here to Be YOU!

Send us a text Here's a confession. This week, I did what you're not supposed to - at least if you don't want predictive algorithms to, well, predict better. After I finished my YouTube yoga, a suggested video was queued up, a ten minute motivational speech. I clicked 'Play' and it was phenomenal. So maybe AI knows me better than I know myself because I needed that speech, it rippled through me, so much so that I watched it a second time, then a third and took notes. This episode is the impact c...

Mystical Red Rocks Park and Amphitheater

Send us a text Last week, my eldest and I walked Red Rocks Park, best known for its world-renowned music venue. We found the already mystical sand stones to have another level of awe covered in a blanket of snow. As we walked near a place I alluded to last week with guest, Phill Webster, a place where the middle of a massive forty foot wall of red rocks tapers into a cave-like opening, I turned on the ghost app on my phone. I've never seen that amount of activity on the app, and for a such a ste...

Celebrating YOU - Your Own Uniqueness

Send us a text The other morning, I woke up to snow and filled my little journal with psycho-pop fluorescent snowflake sketches. Each flake was a unique configuration, it's own work of art. Fragile. Temporary beauties that melt away with the slightest drop in temperature. We're like that. Unique. Unlike anyone else on the planet. Even if we are a twin. Even if our DNA strand is exactly the same. Our experience and point of view is one of a kind. Why am I shining a spotlight on this? Because herd...

Crab and Sourdough: Making Room for Grief During the Holidays

Send us a text During a recent car ride with a loved one, we had a conversation that led to them making some fun suggestions for a few "light" episodes for the run up to the holidays. I considered them, both fresh and sweet, and then consideration turned into clarification. This podcast is a place where everyone is welcome, it's a place of imperfections, of experimentation, of authenticity and vulnerability, all in the vibration of love. In short, I won't pollute this podcast with content that w...

Love is Greater than Fear

Send us a text My experiment to change fear into love. After meditation, I was drawn back to an old book I love, Angels and Awakening by Julie Jancius, a course slash workbook on how to connect with angels. I completed this course over two years ago, but as I read through the passages in the present, redoing the exercises in the margins, I saw the words in a different way, not better or worse, just, well the best way I can describe it is like watching a movie after you've read the novel. Deeper,...

The Lost Art of Doing No-Thing

Send us a text A few days ago, I went to a bookstore to find Lessons in Chemistry. As I walked past the non-fiction area, a book caught my eye, Eckhart Tolle's, The Power of Now. I haven't been able to put it down since. I'm writing notes in the margins and wow. Just wow. Sewn up in a few words. Being present, living in NOW, is the key to living in bliss, being our truest self, and holding a constant connection to everything. Remember that sage turtle from Kung Fu Panda? He said the present is a...

Four Ghost Stories and Where's Season Four?!?

If you are a regular listener, first, thank god for you. You are the reason I've kept at this the last month, this podcasting thing.

I've been doing the work to look back and face, then make peace with my past. It's been a journey of forgiving, both myself and others. I truly thought to meet my inner child would be a delightful, relaxing experience. We'd hug in my mind's eye, reunited. I've meditated to send love and comfort to who I'll call little Jenn many times. Those painful memories no longer hu...

Keith is an IT professional, obsessed with data, and that's why he took meticulous records of all that happened when he resided at what has been come to be known as Bothell Hell House of Ghost Adventures fame.

Night Swimming

Send us a text We spend roughly a third of our lives asleep. Do you buy the rote reason given? That it's when our bodies heal. And that's it. Not a very efficient pit stop, is it? Eight hours to heal the damage we do during the other 16? The recent addition to that is sleeping hours are when our brain processes, then stores our day. Really? That doesn't quite pass the BS test for me either. I've no doubt that's part of it, but does our computer, once we shut our laptops for the evening spend the...
