Hello beloved ones. I’m coming to you this week with a fierce, tender heart. I want to talk about the astrology from the perspective of how it can help us hold reality.

Hi my friends. I could not, in good conscious, share the podcast this week as if it was just business as usual. I had a lot of resistance to even coming on to share the podcast + talk about astrology, as certain parts of me have given way to despair + meaninglessness against the backdrop of a Genocide. And yet, I know that despair is a heavy tool wielded to convince us of our powerlessness. And I...

Oh fair maiden, the one that teaches us how to attune our bodies to the rhythms of the Natural World. How contorted this energy can become by the standards of Empire.
