Ask The Angel With Rachel Corpus with Rachel Corpus
Waking Up Beyond the Matrix: Soul Exile 13, Light Codes, and Creating Reality
Rachel Corpus Opens Ask the Angel
In this episode of Ask the Angel, host Rachel Corpus welcomes listeners into a mystical discussion about the matrix, the grid, near-death experiences, and the power people have to create their own reality. Rachel introduces herself as an angel communicator, psychic medium, and angel incarnate, then explains that the episode will focus on what the angels call the matrix or grid. She says she once went back and forth about whether reality is a matrix until she had a near-death experience that she believes took her to the other side of it.
The Sun Card and Light Codes
Rachel begins by pulling a card from Kyle Gray’s Angels and Ancestors Oracle Cards deck. The card that appears is the Sun card, with the message to enjoy success and happiness. Rachel channels that the sun carries light codes meant to help people remember who they are, why they are here, and that they are deserving of warmth, love, and divinity. She says each person experiences the sun differently, just as each person defines success and happiness differently, and she encourages listeners to sit in the sun and reconsider what those words mean for them.
Angels, Origins, and Earthly Experience
Rachel reminds listeners that angels are not tied to one religion, but are guides and messengers. She says people may come from different spiritual origins, such as angelic realms, starseed origins, or other places of consciousness, and that each soul comes to Earth to experience and learn. Rachel shares that she knows her own origin because of a near-death experience she had at age four, during which she says she went on a field trip with angels and learned she is from the angelic realm as a seraphim.
“Woohoo News You Can Use”
The episode includes Rachel’s recurring “Woohoo News You Can Use” segment. She first discusses research suggesting that serotonin, often described as a feel-good chemical, may worsen tinnitus symptoms for some people, particularly in relation to serotonin-related brain circuits and SSRI medications. Rachel connects this to a spiritual reminder that more is not always better and that balance matters. She then discusses a proposed experiment involving gravitational waves, laser light, and the quantum nature of gravity, explaining it in simple terms as an attempt to understand the hidden structure of reality.
Rachel’s Struggle with Drinking and Self-Medication
Rachel then moves into a deeply personal story about a period when she was drinking heavily and hiding it from her family. She says she was drinking about a bottle of vodka a day and had already heard God tell her that if she stopped drinking, she could create anything she wanted, but if she continued, she would be dead in three weeks. Rachel explains that she had been trying to self-medicate because, as a healer, pastor, teacher, mother, and wife, she struggled to carry the emotions and lower vibrations of Earth while being alone with her own thoughts.
Being Pulled Out of Her Body
Rachel describes lying in bed beside her sleeping husband when her chest tightened, her jaw and body locked up, and she felt herself being pulled out of her body like a backpack. She says she rose about 40 feet above her body and could see herself and her husband in bed below. She then saw a control-room-like space to her right, filled with people at computers. A woman saw Rachel and reacted as if Rachel was not supposed to be there, and Rachel noticed that the woman’s screen showed Rachel’s bedroom along with streams of data or code.
The Control Room and Orientation
Rachel says a man came to guide her and told her they had been expecting her. She was taken down an elevator into an orientation room filled with people who seemed confused, as though they had just awakened somewhere unfamiliar. Some asked about work, children, pets, whether they were dead, and whether they were in the afterlife. A humanoid figure told them their questions would be answered later and repeatedly urged them to stay calm. Rachel’s guide said the people were going through a “remembering” process and that the place was not a punishment.
Soul Exile 13
Rachel says the place she visited was called Soul Exile 13. As she toured it, she saw different levels or areas, including residential spaces, classrooms, and increasingly beautiful environments. The lower levels seemed more sterile and clinical, while higher levels included comfortable residences, fireplaces, digital windows, gardens, fresh food, and community spaces. Rachel says people there worked only about three hours a day, attended growth-oriented classes, and lived in groups of about eight souls who functioned more like a soul group than an Earth-style family.
Classes, Soul Growth, and Remembering
Rachel describes the classes on Soul Exile 13 as therapy-like sessions where people were asked questions about childhood, memory, love, life, and meaning. The purpose was not to pass or fail, but to support soul growth. She says people graduated upward when they were ready, not as a reward or punishment, but because learning too much too soon would overwhelm them. Rachel explains that the system was designed to help people remember gradually, rather than shock them with truths before they could handle them.
The Pod Room and the Holographic Earth
The most dramatic part of Rachel’s account comes when her guide takes her to what she calls the pod room. She describes rows and rows of upright coffin-sized pods filled with fluid, each containing a young-looking human body. Rachel says she was told that every person on Earth has a body in a pod, while their consciousness is projected onto Earth as an avatar. According to what she was told, Earth is currently in its thirteenth version and exists as a holographic or grid-like projection created collectively by consciousness.
Source, Soul Choice, and Returning to Earth
Rachel asks whether God is involved in this system, and she says the beings told her that Source is involved in everything, though religious concepts of God belong more specifically to Earth. She explains that souls can choose whether to remain on Soul Exile 13 or return to Earth. If a person chooses to stay, an avatar version of them continues on Earth with their memories and abilities, though children, pets, or highly intuitive people may notice something different. Rachel says she chose to return because she wanted to be with her husband Edward and her children.
Returning Through the Pod
Rachel describes being shown how to return to her Earth life by entering an empty pod. She says she was told to press one button to avoid suffocation as the pod filled with fluid and another button if she wanted to remember the experience. She pressed both. When she pushed the second button, she woke up in bed and initially wondered whether it had been a dream. Over time, she came to believe it was not a dream, especially after hearing other people describe similar experiences of waking up beyond the matrix.
Working with the Matrix
Rachel says the lesson from the experience is that reality is more malleable than people realize. She describes Earth as a projected experience and asks how people can “mess with” or consciously work with the matrix. She introduces Grabovoi codes, which she describes as number sequences connected with specific intentions or outcomes. She gives examples for creativity, prosperity, and confidence, explaining that writing, repeating, or focusing on the numbers can help recode the energetic field.
Sigils, Intentions, and Reality Creation
Rachel also demonstrates how to create a sigil, a symbolic image made by combining the letters of a word into one visual form. She uses the word “money” as an example and explains that a sigil can hold a person’s intention, collapse unhelpful timelines, and concentrate energy toward a desired reality. She also suggests writing intentions on mirrors, door frames, or other visible places as reminders and energetic anchors. For Rachel, these practices are ways of participating consciously in the reality people are already helping to create.
Closing Blessing and Invitation
Rachel closes the episode by clearing the space with rose and mugwort smoke, offering a blessing, and inviting listeners to find her on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and her website. She reminds listeners that they can book a session through RachelCorpus.com and ends with love, encouragement, and her familiar reminder to keep their halos straight. The episode blends angel communication, personal testimony, spiritual cosmology, practical manifestation tools, and Rachel’s central message that people are more powerful creators of reality than they often realize.

Chuck and Julie Open with Colorado Republican Party News
In this episode of The Chuck and Julie Show, hosts Chuck Bonniwell and Julie Hayden open with major news from the Colorado Republican Party. They discuss the party meeting in Buena Vista, where Craig Steiner of Douglas County was elected the new Colorado GOP chair after defeating Joe Oltmann and Jeremy Goodall. The hosts bring on former Colorado legislator and strategist Ted Harvey, who supported Steiner’s campaign and helped explain what the leadership change may mean for the party going forward.
Ted Harvey Describes Craig Steiner as a Tactician
Ted Harvey describes Craig Steiner as a political tactician rather than a loud partisan figure. He explains that Steiner previously served as secretary and chair of the Douglas County Republican Party and created a voter-targeting program called Voter Spectrum, which has been used for get-out-the-vote efforts, door knocking, phone banking, and campaign organizing. Harvey argues that Steiner is strong on conservative issues such as life, guns, taxes, unions, and education, and points to Douglas County victories, including Republican wins and school-board efforts, as evidence that Steiner understands how to organize and win.
Ballot Harvesting and Get-Out-the-Vote Strategy
Chuck asks about ballot harvesting and whether it will be part of the Colorado GOP’s future strategy. He recalls using absentee voting and ballot collection in Glendale years earlier and argues that Republicans have often been outworked by Democrats on this front. Harvey says Douglas County Republicans have used similar tactics successfully, especially in smaller races where turnout is lower, but acknowledges that large-scale ballot harvesting requires money, volunteers, organization, and paid effort. He also notes that the Colorado Republican Party does not currently have much money, making fundraising and organizational rebuilding essential.
The Opt-Out Issue and Republican Primaries
A major focus of the interview is Colorado’s opt-out issue, tied to the party’s ability to opt out of open primaries and return more candidate selection power to Republican caucus and assembly participants. Harvey says he has been on the front line helping push opt-out efforts and would not have supported Steiner if Steiner were not aligned with him on that issue. He says Steiner opposed Proposition 108 when it was on the ballot and believed the party should opt out as quickly as possible. Harvey argues that establishment figures have used open primaries to influence Republican nominations and keep conservatives from winning.
Party Debt, Legal Bills, and Donor Confidence
Chuck and Julie also ask about party finances, debt, and legal bills left from the previous administration. Harvey says donors were reluctant to give money while the party appeared focused on legal battles and internal fights rather than electing Republicans. He says Steiner’s first task will be to understand the lawsuits, invoices, and financial obligations facing the party. Harvey believes that if donors see competent leadership and assurance that money will go toward winning elections instead of paying attorneys, they may begin contributing again.
Neutral Leadership and Avoiding the Enemy List
The hosts discuss internal party fights, including what they describe as “enemy lists” and attacks on grassroots conservatives under prior party leadership. Harvey says Steiner will not create an enemy list and will not use the chairmanship to put his thumb on the scale in primaries. While Chuck and Julie express interest in seeing some establishment Republicans challenged, Harvey argues that the chair should not personally drive primary attacks. Instead, he says the state party should focus on making the process fair and preventing establishment forces from tilting the playing field against conservatives.
The RNC, NRCC, and Future Assemblies
Harvey says the Republican National Committee and national Republican groups will need to decide whether to work with the Colorado GOP if the party moves forward with opt-out. He argues that Steiner’s temperament may help because Steiner is not a bomb-thrower, but someone focused on doing the work. Harvey says the party will need to prepare for a very different nomination process, including state, county, state House, and state Senate assemblies where Republican activists and caucus participants will have far more influence in selecting nominees.
Tina Peters Released from Custody
After the Ted Harvey interview, Chuck and Julie turn to the release of Tina Peters, who was freed that morning. They discuss her interview with Steve Bannon, where she said she remained concerned about election machines and vote-flipping claims. Chuck and Julie criticize media descriptions that characterize Peters as being imprisoned for “election fraud,” arguing that the actual charges related to official misconduct, impersonation, and attempts to influence a public servant. They also criticize Republicans and Democrats who opposed her release, while noting that Governor Jared Polis may have had political reasons for granting relief.
Colorado Politics, Jared Polis, and Party Divisions
The hosts speculate about Governor Jared Polis’s motives, including whether his decision regarding Tina Peters may be connected to future national ambitions. They also discuss divisions within Colorado politics, the role of county clerks, and the divide between grassroots Republicans and establishment figures. Chuck argues that the state may eventually become ready for a real alternative to Democratic governance if economic and political conditions continue to decline, though he also acknowledges that opt-out alone will not guarantee statewide Republican victories.
Media Humor, Spencer Pratt, and Campaign Messaging
The episode later shifts into commentary on media, campaign ads, and political humor. Chuck and Julie discuss Spencer Pratt’s Los Angeles mayoral campaign messaging and praise a satirical ad portraying left-leaning media outlets as a kind of ideological treatment. They argue that humor can be powerful political messaging when it is funny because it contains truth. The hosts contrast this style with Republican messaging they see as less creative, saying conservatives could benefit from sharper, more intelligent humor.
CBS, CNN, Barry Weiss, and Legacy Media
The hosts also comment on legacy media upheaval, including reports involving Barry Weiss, CBS/60 Minutes figures, Scott Pelley, Anderson Cooper, CNN, and possible changes in major network leadership. Chuck and Julie frame these developments as signs that old media institutions are losing influence and that some longtime media personalities may not understand how much the media landscape has changed. Their broader point is that legacy outlets can no longer assume the same level of audience control or cultural authority they once had.
Closing Thoughts on the Colorado GOP’s Future
Chuck and Julie close by saying they believe Craig Steiner’s leadership could help stabilize and revitalize the Colorado Republican Party, especially if the opt-out process moves forward. They describe him as a calmer, more practical chair who may not be as combative as past figures but may be better suited to rebuilding party structure. The episode ends with optimism that the party may be moving toward a more grassroots-driven future, even while acknowledging that organization, money, unity, and candidate quality will still determine whether Republicans can win.
