In this episode, Jasmine, Kestrel, and Eliza dive into the magic behind our pre-natal Venus cazimi's (that is: conjunctions with the Sun). Together, we explore this season’s Venus retrograde and cazimi in Leo, Venus’ synodic cycle, and what the Venus cazimi that predates your birth says about you.

The Astrology of 2023

That’s a wrap on 2022. Happy New Year! In this episode, Jasmine, Kestrel, and Eliza unpack the astrology of 2023. With Mercury and Mars both retrograde at the top of the year, we begin on a slow note. But this year has a few huge changes in store. Like, generationally huge. In March, Saturn enters Pisces for the first time in 30 years. (That means if you have Saturn in Pisces, you’re entering your Saturn return. And if you have Saturn in Aquarius, your return is officially ending.) Then Pluto...

Uranus with ALICIA YOUSUF

In this episode, we speak with Australian astrologer, Alicia Yusuf. The subject: Uranus, that boundary defying planet of disruption and chaos. One of the many cool things about Uranus is that it fits neatly into a human lifespan — Uranus takes 84 years to orbit that Sun. Uranus’ cycle provides a helpful frame to understand our own lives as we pass through the thresholds of being human. One of the most famous “pitstops” on this journey occurs around age 42, when transiting Uranus opposes...

Medieval astrologers and mages used the lunar mansions to time certain events, as well as rites of magic. Thea has studied astrology and magic with Sam Reynolds, Austin Coppock, Nina Gryphon, and...

We are so thrilled to release this episode with traditional astrologer and astro mage, Nina Gryphon! Together, we explore the ancient branch of horary astrology, in which a chart is drawn for the moment a question is asked. This is astrology at its most divinatory, if not downright magical in its logic (while at the same time complex and rigorous.) We also discuss the practice of astrological magic, including the construction of magical talismans. Other topics include: theology, finding lost ...

Vesta with BEAR RYVER

In this episode, we explore the archetype and astrology of the asteroid Vesta. Vesta is named after the Roman Goddess of the hearth, whose Greek counterpart is known as Hestia. Vesta is the first born and the last born child of Saturn, the Goddess who refused to marry or couple with other Gods, despite the pursuit of suitors like Apollo or Poseidon. In astrology, she represents the principle of focus (the Latin word for hearth) and devotion — especially that devotion that flows, not to anothe...

Happy Leo season! The usual pool party begins with a bit of rain, as the Sun approaches an opposition to Saturn for the first ten days. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t show up with all the glitz and glam you can forage from your diva-auntie’s closet. In this episode, we explore questions of pride and self-worth, ego strength, playfulness, what to do with your Leo children and MORE. We also discuss the upcoming lunations, which include not one but two full moons in Aquarius...
