Today we’d like to introduce you to Lucas Wood.
Lucas, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
As a kid, I always had a feeling that I was different than everyone around me. I was the kid who wanted to understand everything. I was curious as to how this world that I ended up in worked. I always felt a connection to the unseen worlds. I would see spirits and ghosts, and I even would go into the backyard where nobody could hear me so I could talk to the friends I felt I had in spirit. Despite my connections, I grew up in a Christian household and a majority of the people in my family were Christian. I would hear everyone talk about “fearing God,” and how “God is almighty and will judge us all,” but my view on what everyone was calling “God” was much different. My relationship to God was way different than everyone else’s. My relationship to God was clearly different. I knew that the way everyone around me was perceiving God was out of a place of disempowerment, fear, unworthiness, etc. I felt so alone with the idea that God wasn’t just a man in the sky, but that God is the energy that holds everything in this universe together. Out of the feelings of isolation and fear, I quickly adapted my beliefs based on what my parents and family told me about God, but when they would talk to me about God, I didn’t feel the same connection to God with those people as I did when I was by myself. It was very confusing to my little mind with an old soul that knew different than what it was being told. As time went on, just as most people within society, I suppressed my true feelings and became complacent with what I was being told. Eventually, I was going to church regularly and I even got baptized at the age of 10. In the moment of my baptism, I remember experiencing something strange, and I never shared it with anyone. I remember there being tons of people from the church there to see me get baptized, but just before I went under the water, I remember seeing everyone fade away and for a moment it was just me in water and I remember having a feeling of complete bliss and I connected with what I consider to truly be what other people may call “God.” I remember that connection to “God” being shown to me as a deeper connection to myself and to my own experience in life as opposed to some source of power that I am separate from. From that moment on my life was different and my spiritual beliefs started to shift and change. Eventually, I couldn’t be around the church anymore because I didn’t resonate or agree with what the pastors were saying during their sermons and the other churchgoers were so closed-minded to hear my thoughts about God as a kid. So naturally, I felt unsafe and unloved there. My family started noticing my apprehension towards going to church and they all began to worry. Some worried more than others, some still do to this day, but nonetheless, my spiritual beliefs did not align with those around me and so I began to, yet again, hide them and close them off so as to be loved and accepted by my family. As time went on, I kept my continual discovery of my spiritual self under lock and key. Eventually, I found my way to the mystical side of YouTube content, spiritual entrepreneurs, and enlightenment teachers. I found myself getting so delightfully lost in the existentiality of life. It was as if everything these people were teaching made me feel seen, understood, and accepted. I progressively developed a deeper spiritual connection to what the word “God” meant for me. I felt very passionate about these newfound teachings and felt compelled to share them with the people that would listen. In high school, I bought my first oracle card deck and began giving free readings so people could receive the messages that the universe wanted them to hear. Over time I developed very strong intuitive abilities and used them continually to assist with my readings. During my senior year of high school was when covid shut down everything and it had a huge emotional impact on me and my classmates. I went through what we call in the metaphysical community a “dark knight of the soul.” To put it lightly a dark knight of the soul is essentially a depressive period where everything is seemingly falling apart and you have lost all direction. During this time, I separated myself from my spirituality and resented the world for the way it was. During this time, I also moved away for college. In college, I had a wakeup call from the universe in a very powerful way. I remember one day I suddenly felt as if I had woken up from a deep sleep. I felt alive for the first time since covid hit. It was as if I could clearly hear the universe guiding me. I wasn’t happy with college. I was only there to try please my family in being the first of my siblings to go to college and finish in 4 years’ time. I was guided to drop out and take some time to work and figure out what was truly calling to me. I then moved back home and lived with my mom again from October of 2020 to June of 2021. During that time, I devoted myself to diving into my spiritual self and I vowed to no longer ignore that side of me. From that point forward my spiritual growth exponentially increased. I was learning more about myself every day and healing myself of my deep emotional wounding one step at a time. I was also called to start doing readings again, and that is what really catalyzed the rest of my growth and my journey into the deepest parts of my experience. Doing readings led me to working for Miracles of Joy, a metaphysical supply store and service center in Lewisville, Texas. I started working at MOJ in April of 2021 before I moved out of my mom’s house. I was developing faster as a result of being in the environment of so many spiritual people and getting to do my readings for people. After I started working for MOJ I quickly got my First-Degree Reiki Certification and began doing energy healings on clients, friends, and coworkers as well. Being a reiki practitioner really sharpened my psychic abilities across the board and made me overall a better reader and better person. I have now been with Miracles of Joy for almost a year. In that year I discovered more about myself, the universe, my connection to the All That Is, and so much more. I’ve developed some of the deepest bonds, healed some of the deepest wounds, empowered the disempowered, and have transformed my life in ways I never thought imaginable. I am now 20 years old and actively pursuing my dream life in every way that I possibly can. My mission in this life is to make my life a walking devotional to my spiritual journey while simultaneously helping reawaken humanity to its true nature of divinity, empowerment, unconditional love, and unity within the universe. Everyone is capable and deserving of their heart’s deepest desires, and it’s up to all of us to not only support each other but to unconditionally support ourselves in the eternal learning process that life truly is.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way? Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
It definitely has not been a smooth road. Growing up I was so different from everyone spiritually, which made me feel so trapped already. On top of that, I am a gay man, and as a kid that was hard to come to terms with within myself as the church told me that they didn’t like gay people and neither did God. I also struggled in high school with feeling accepted as I was denying my masculinity because my femininity was praised by my peers and some of the boys, I was interested in. For a long portion of my life, after my parents divorced in 2010, we didn’t have much money. That enabled me to create a ‘Lack Mindset’ within my psyche that programmed me to believe that there was never enough of anything; money, food, love, material vices, the list goes on. It’s through the deeper spiritual work that I do that I was truly able to transcend a majority of that limiting programming and uplift myself to create a life that is comfortable and fulfilling. This work is something I actively practice and teach others how to do as well.
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know about your work?
I am an Intuitive Channel & Reiki Master/Teacher. I do Intuitive Tarot & Oracle card readings, Past Life readings, Reiki Energy Healing, Light Language Transmissions & Healings, and I am a Channel for Guidance from Spirit. I specialize in spiritual empowerment, enlightenment teachings, and assisting others in their awakening processes by consciously and meditatively connecting to one’s energy and expressing that which I perceive and am intuitively given my spirit. I can assist in the rewiring and fine-tuning the belief programming in one’s experience. As previously mentioned, I am a Reiki Master/Teacher so I teach Reiki classes as well. I’m not certain as to what I am particularly “known” for by others, but I believe that I am known for my Tarot & Oracle readings and my casual existential perspective. Accolade wise I am most proud of becoming a certified Reiki Master/Teacher, but on a personal level, I am most proud of myself for staying true to myself regardless of what anyone has anything to say about it and my immense spiritual growth within myself on a very personal level. I am different than most people in the sense that I don’t look outside of myself for the answers anymore, at least in my own perception I don’t. You are the creator of your reality, so you are responsible for everything you experience on a vibrational and energetic level. Nobody and nothing outside of you is responsible for anything in your experience, but they do play a part in it. It is up to us to recognize what parts of ourselves we are denying, ignoring, not empowering, or not loving in order to find the keys to our true happiness. It is an ongoing and everlasting process within the physical human experience, but that’s the beauty of it. When we find those limits/negative programs, we flip the script to feed love into it and that helps us transcend our Shadow to step into our Light.
So, before we go, how can our readers or others connect or collaborate with you? How can they support you?
All of my offerings are available both through Miracles of Joy and privately. I am happy to do sessions both in person and over the phone. I plan to start uploading spiritually conscious media on YouTube and Instagram in the near future. I’m I’m looking to share me own personal experiences from my journey as well as share insight and guidance that I feel called to, so keep an eye out for that! It is my greatest joy to assist souls in the remembering of who they truly are and what they’re here to do.
