Magic Of The Spheres Podcast

I had Becca Tarnas back on the show to discuss the planetary combinations of Mercury after we last discussed the planetary combinations of Venus. This episode is part one of our conversation and we’ll make it out through Saturn, so check back next week for part 2 where we will discuss Mercury’s combinations with Uranus, Neptune and Pluto.Becca is a scholar, artist, and counseling astrologer, and an editor of Archai: The Journal of Archetypal Cosmology. She received her PhD in Philosophy and Religion at the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco and her dissertation is titled The Back of Beyond: The Red Books of C.G. Jung and J.R.R. Tolkien. Speaking with Becca and getting to otherwise interact with her work is a real pleasure one reason of which is that she combines such deep intellect and scholarship with the numinous and the mythic, which I feel becomes a doorway to making new connections about the magic of the world around us. Archetypes, after all, are everywhere. We

I interviewed Kirah about her research on the astrology of the Millennial and Gen Z generations (astrologically we’re looking at Pluto in Scorpio and Pluto in Sagittarius) as well as how these generations interact with the older generations, or the generations that their parents are part of. This conversation gave me so much to think about and I think you’ll find it illuminating as well! Whether you are part of these generations or witnessing those who are, it’s so cool to get the perspective of how the outer planets correlate with generational themes. This astrological lens to perceive cultural trends creates a lot of insight.More about Kirah - Shakirah of The Strology and NFLUX Mag is an astrologer, writer, and creator.

A few days ago I found a packet of papers in my closet, which were some notes I took to give a creative writing workshop called "Method Acting Writing", which was about fully getting into character to produce a work of writing. Basically, if the creative vision exceeds one's current identity, then a new identity has to be created. This is how we can step into doing or creating things we have never before. I repurposed some of the information from these notes to record this episode about the manifestation process in general, and how we can "get into character" to create things in our lives.Connect with me on instagram @sabrinamonarchRead the weekly astrology forecasts at www.monarchastrology.comMusic by Danny Lampton of The Light & The Weight See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

I had a conversation with Ari Moshe about harmonizing with our life path and the unfolding of time, how we relate with Source, and how to court life and ask for what we need and desire from life (as opposed to approaching life with a sense of control, or gripping). There was a theme in our conversation about humility and how we’re showing up for life when there’s a lot of information we simply don’t know - and how this can translate to holding curiosity and being in relationship with the mystery as it is unfolding.Ari has a prayerful relationship with life that comes across as deep medicine in his words and sharing. Ari is a gifted astrologer, musician, teacher and counselor. I felt so much peace recording with him and hope you enjoy our conversation.Connect with Ari: http://www.arimoshe.comConnect with me on instagram @sabrinamonarchRead the weekly astrology forecasts at www.monarchastrology.comMusic by Danny Lampton of The Light & The Weight See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information

Taurus and Scorpio are a tantric axis - Taurus is sensual, yes, and Scorpio sexual. (Though they are both, both.) Taurus relates to our relationship with ourself and our environment, and how complete we can be in ourselves yet receptive to resource, pleasure, and simply feeling good in our bodies and feeling rooted in our self-worth. Scorpio relates to our “urge to merge” - our desires and drives that compel us, perhaps obsess us. The conversation between the two signs can determine how magnetic we are, how receptive we are to receiving what we actually desire versus how stagnant and blocked we might be. The conversation between these two signs also relate to our clarity and commitment to value, versus our entanglement and involvement with toxicity just bc it’s all we know or all we think we are worth. I couldn’t be more excited to share a conversation about Taurus and Scorpio with you that I had with fellow astrologer Arakai Moon of Star Siren Astrology. Arakai Moon is a shamanic bodyworker an

We store trauma in the body - unlocking and clearing that trauma has ramifications for not just the physical body but also the emotional and energy bodies. I spoke with Trevor Kamplain of Unlock All Power about the process of clearing blockages around the heart at a physical level and what that can do for one's life. We drew on the Leo and Scorpio archetypes to talk about heart-clearing.

Do you feel like you’ve been here before, in another life? And if so… what does that say about the meaning of this current life? I reached out to one of my biggest intellectual influences on karma and reincarnation, Chris M. Bache, to invite him onto the show to explore these ideas further. His book Lifecycles: Reincarnation and the Web of Life has been an essential to me! We discuss in this episode some principles of karma and reincarnation and then what this suggests about the collective process here on earth as a whole.Chris is a professor who has taught and written about reincarnation and karma - he is now 70 years old and threw himself into and studied himself out of religion before his first Saturn return (which as you may know is around 29 years of age), and then encountered academic information about reincarnation at his Saturn return and this became a fruitful path of research and writing for Chris from that point onward. Over 40 years of study, work and integration of these themes leads to his

Part 2 - Erica’s astrology work is titled Real Imaginal which is a project about “revitalizing the human relationship to the planetary archetype of Neptune”, which she writes is a “process of re-enchantment, defined in part by the attempt to regain a sense of belonging in a living, aware cosmos.” If you visit her website at realimaginal.com, you can take a pretty deep dive with her on what it means to be re-enchanted, and as you’ll find out in this episode, Erica is a really deep perceiver and thinker. This conversation opened me up to new ways of thinking about one of my biggest planetary companions, Pluto :) and as a very Plutonic person myself that was also healing, to understand from a new angle why I’ve felt and perceived so *intensely* my whole life and why that has put me on a personal development path and driven my interest in the esoteric. Now as an astrologer practicing Pluto-centered astrology I spend so much time with Pluto that this conversation had a way of supercharging me and I trust will also

Jason Holley is a psychotherapist and astrologer based out of Santa Fe, New Mexico. Jason's visions of astrology have and continue to deeply inspire me - I was so happy to have him on the show! We discuss the role astrology plays in therapeutic work, his philosophy as a therapist, and personality as process (personality as a verb, not a noun). We explored a few personality processes like histrionic, narcissistic, and borderline. Part of Jason’s work is helping to loosen up personality processes/patterns so that people can experience more psychic flexibility. His capacity to imagine the psyche, and invite us all to imagine the psyche, adds terrain and possibility to the interior world, which cannot help but to expand one's capacity to interact with life.Jason Holley's websiteJason Holley's lectures at Astrology UniversityConnect with me on instagram @sabrinamonarchRead the weekly astrology forecasts at www.monarchastrology.comMusic by Danny Lampton of The Light & The Weight See acast.com/privacy for p

Chiron Armand of Impact Shamanism is a spirit-initiated shaman holding initiations in several traditions. Chiron is the author of Deliverance!: Hoodoo Spells of Uncrossing, Healing, and Protection and Clearing Spaces: Inspirational Techniques to Heal Your Home.We spoke about soul retrieval, self-trust, and how our guides and intuition can speak to us in imagery, and how it is our responsibility to slow down, listen and have a dialogue with those images. Not so coincidentally, it is Mercury retrograde at the time of publishing this episode and that is one of the potential medicines of the transit - slowing down to think over and consider the information that might otherwise slip past our attention. And what is soul retrieval? Basically it’s coming back into contact with parts of our soul which have fractured off due to some kind of trauma, in this life or prior lives. Soul retrieval helps us be more present and embodied in the present moment.Perhaps soul-retrieval is a phenomenon you’re already famil
