Show Notes
The theme for April is Chrysalis. We are no longer a caterpillar, and not completely in the in-between time of transmutation. We are now a fully formed butterfly, our chrysalis clear and transparent, right on the verge of eclosing and emerging from this container. April marks an important period of time where we will be engaging with the inner preparatory work necessary to come into the next iteration of our lives. This month will likely not contain a ton of big clear moments of direction, or a-ha's about what to do next in the way that our ego and heart might long for them. But we are so close to that clarity -- April is going to help us to move into the next phase of our lives, and this reading can help us to understand how to engage with the invitations at hand.

Welcome to a new week, loves, and with it a new weekly Soul Tarot download! This week, we're going to be called to really evaluate why we're saying yes to the things we are that are out of alignment for us. Not necessarily the stuff we absolutely have to do, but the shit we don't absolutely have to do, but agree to take on anyway. Is it fawning? People pleasing? Wanting folks to read our minds? This week reminds us that we have work to do, and in order to do it, we have to really audit what might be standing in the way of that work being able to have our full (or partial) attention.
Welcome to a new week, loves, and with it a new weekly Soul Tarot download! This week, we have a really tender and vulnerable invitation to trust deeply in the unseen magic in our lives. It is going to call on us to lean into our gifts, expressing our desires and wishes, despite potentially any evidence around whether it's truly "working" or bringing anything new into our lives. What is here no longer serves, so we must root into the energy of early Spring, a time when life comes back to itself underneath the very soil we're walking on, and allow our intentions to be planted regardless of reassurances.
The intensity of this Venus Retrograde + the potency of Venus in Scorpio have you down? Have no fear! We have the legendary Lisa Stardust on the podcast today to speak about this seismic transit and how to best work with it! Lisa also gets into a bit about Mercury Retrograde, and shares how she got started doing the work she does.
Welcome to a new week, loves, and with it a new weekly Soul Tarot download! This week, we are being invited to meet the blocked, stuck, tricky places within ourselves and in our lives with fresh perspective, looking for the open windows wherever we encounter locked doors in our lives. It's very much a choose-your-own-adventure this week. The energy of the week ahead might invite us to find new ways to rest and come to stillness for our own nourishment, in spite of all we need to accomplish. We might, in contrast, be invited to come more forward with our energy, tapping into reserves of capacity that we might not have been aware that we had. Either way, it a quietly expansive week ahead, one that has the potential to truly open roads (and windows) in our lives.
Welcome to a new month, and with it, a new Monthly Medicine! Our theme for October is Magic as Refuge. This is a twisty, windy, snake-like, slow roll of a month. It is a candle slowly burning, tea slowly steeping, giving way to itself as we traverse it. We are invited to reclaim and deepen into whatever we feel is rooted in magic, or feels magical in our lives -- as medicine, as refuge. We are invited to get tender, vulnerable, truthful, to bring our whole heart and soul to our relationship with that magic, to really ask for what we want and are hoping for. The rest of the month is a complex web of invitations, some that will ask us to slow down, pause and reorient, and some that will call on us to put our foot on the gas a little more than we have been. Through it all, magic remains the North Star. How can you bow over to the invitation, reclaiming and rejoicing in your own magic, in the most open and curious way possible through the month ahead?
