• 178. Replenishing The Well of Hope: Astrology of November 2024
    Nov 1 2024

    Where are we committed to fundamental misunderstandings about the nature of suffering? In what areas of life are we finally ready to embrace that different outcomes might be possible? How do we create the space to honor & cultivate the emergence of new realities?

    The theme for November is Replenishing The Well of Hope.

    In this episode, I share some contemplations for us to return to throughout the month.

    November 2024 starts with a gnarly New Moon in Scorpio, ruled by a grouchy Mars in Cancer. By the end of the month, we'll be gearing up for another New Moon in Sagittarius, which starts December off. Mercury will be moving into Sagittarius before going retrograde, Mars will move into Leo, Venus will move into Capricorn, and Pluto will move into Aquarius.

    I also pulled 9 of Cups, 8 of Cups, and Ace of Swords from the Tabula Mundi tarot.

    I also offer a 6-month mentorship container Night Vision.

  • 177. The Process is The Point
    Oct 28 2024

    What might shift when we orient to the unfinished process of life as nourishment, rather than obstacles? What perspectives become available to us when we treat iterations as gifts?

    In this episode, I digest and deepen into some of the transmissions that came through the monthly astrological contemplation for October 2024 (Episode 174. Embodying The Resource: Astrology of October 2024).

    We discussed:

    • Venus in Sagittarius & meeting the meandering nature of desire
    • Confronting the fear of releasing pressures & expectations from our Work
    • Creating space for deeper alchemy

  • 176. Marisa Michelson: Expressing Aliveness Through Voice
    Oct 14 2024
    How do we express aliveness and honesty through our voices? How do our relationships with moving, interruptions, and presence help in the journey of finding authenticity through the sounds our voices make?I feel blessed to record this conversation with Marisa Michelson. Marisa has been building a body of work that examines singing through the multidimensionality of the human being / becoming. When I first found Marisa's work, I was stunned that someone has not only asked the questions I grapple with at various points in my journey, but has sincerely explored them with the devotion, love, and skill they deserve. In this conversation, we discussed Marisa's process with composing music, teaching, and exploring the voice in service of freer singing, healing, self-growth, sexuality, and spiritual inquiry. We explored non-verbal expressions, feeling saturated with life, the connections between limitation and liberation, and the practice of presence.To connect with Marisa:Marisa's websiteListen to Marisa's music Sappho Fragments and Tamar of The River.Vocal De-Armoring Community Weekend on Oct. 25-27th, 2024 in Ancram, NYThe Vocal De-Armoring Channel on Mighty NetworksJoin Marisa's newsletter at the bottom of this page to hear more about her upcoming workshop on Primal ScreamingHere's Marisa's bio: Marisa is a multiple award-winning composer of music-theatre, musicals, oratorio and choral works, and was the founding director of the psychedelic vocal performance ensemble Constellation Chor | an immersion in voice, movement, and spirit which performed throughout New York City and international for seven years, debuting a new music composition with the NY Philharmonic at Lincoln Center in 2018. Her musicals have been produced off-Broadway, her oratorio was performed many times in NYC and in Salt Lake City, and you may hear some of her music wherever music streams. Marisa has been obsessed with all the magic that is the singing, voice-giving, expressive human for over two decades, exploring the uniqueness of solo, ensemble and multiply interweaving voices as a composer, a performer and a sought after somatic singing teacher. Somehow, voice-giving and its relation to the body, spirit and psyche has continued to call her forward - no matter the musical genre, and beyond any binary between performance and healing, composition and improvisation, process and product. After almost two decades of devotion to the Libero Canto School of Singing (a primary lineage of hers), she created the School of Vocal De-Armoring, a somatic and holistic approach to working with singing and voice-giving in a way that connects us more intimately with the layered dimensions of Self. Vocal De-Armoring is not focused on particular aesthetic sound outcomes, though aesthetic improvement - which is subjective - is an important byproduct, but, instead, on self-connection and on learning to sing from a place of honesty. At the same time, Vocal De-Armoring practices help a person develop musical and vocal mastery. Vocal De-Armoring is also about de-conditioning, and Human-ing from a place of Truth. Marisa lives, works, plays and teaches in Ancram on Mohican land in upstate New York. If you enjoyed this podcast, consider booking a reading with me.

  • 175. Mars in Cancer: The Warrior in The Primordial Waters
    Oct 7 2024

    Who is Mars, the warrior, in the primordial waters of Cancer? What are their challenges and opportunities? What wisdom might they have for us?

    For those of you paying attention, Mars is spending a very long time in Cancer between Fall 2024 - Spring 2025.

    In anticipation of the upcoming Mars Retrograde, I've been noticing subtle messages and telltale signs from Mars in Cancer.

    In this episode, I'm sharing a transmission I received on Mars in Cancer when I facilitated my Mars container, EYES ON THE EDGE.

    While I'm unlikely to run EYES ON THE EDGE again until another dignified Mars transit (Fall 2025), I encourage you to join our waitlist if you'd like to be the first to hear about it. Also...who knows! Maybe you'll get some secret surprises in your inbox too :)

  • 174. Embodying The Resource: Astrology of October 2024
    Oct 1 2024

    How do we expand our perspectives on resourcing? How might we become an embodiment of the resources we wish to see in the world? How do maintain active, grounded hope in a burning world?

    The theme for October is Embodying The Resource.

    In the midst of unexpected losses and unprecedented pain, how do we maintain connection to our spirit as a resource?

    In this episode, I share some contemplations for us to return to throughout the month.

    October 2024 starts with an annular solar eclipse in Libra. By the end of the month, we'll be gearing up for another non-eclipse New Moon in Scorpio, which starts November off. Venus's move from Scorpio to Sagittarius plays an important role in shifting the energy mid-month.

    What is the never-ending healing loop? How do we know we're stuck in one? How might we break & transform the cycle?

    Recently, I've had an energetic shift around this concept that's had a massive impact on my relationship to my inner & outer work. I'm excited to share about it.

    Sep 18 2024

    Hey friends,

    This Partial Lunar Eclipse in Pisces feels so alive and rich. I kept getting messages from the planets and try as I might, they wouldn't let me not share this with you.
