In this episode, Britten shares the living transmission behind the phrase The Matriarchy Is Already Here. She explains where it came from, how it moved through her in real time, and begins to name what it actually means in the context of her teachings. Not as a future top-down system, but as something already moving from the bottom up, human to human, cycle by cycle, through the practice of staying with ourselves, protecting children, protecting life, and refusing to abandon the future. If you want to experience where this transmission first moved through her in real time, you can watch the original Instagram reel here. Britten also shares a deeply personal story from her 30th high school reunion, an unexpected encounter that became a real-time expression of everything she's been teaching. Through this story, she shows what it looks like to update into present time, stand with younger parts of yourself, and no longer let shame, old projections, or dominator personalities define your story. This episode is a potent reflection on repair, self-loyalty, and the alchemy of becoming someone who cannot be rattled away from yourself.
Learn More: Britten invites listeners to join her and Matt in the 5th installment of Mystics Making Money: Have You Tried Making It Weirder? in May, a four part workshop series focused on branding as a practice of clarifying and expressing what you do. We understand branding as a ritual process of updating yourself into present time so that what you share, build, and offer is no longer coming from inherited shame, past identity, or someone else's story about you. We're interested in helping you remove the lag between who you are becoming and how you are currently showing up. Here, branding becomes the expression of that alignment, not the goal. Registration is now open and you can enroll here: https://brittenlarue.com/course/mystics-making-money/

More from Moon to Moon
In this episode of Moon to Moon, I'm joined by astrologer, herbalist, and teacher Cameron Allen for a rich conversation on the ethics of speaking astrology. We explore intellectual honesty, the relationship between astrological technique and embodiment, the consequences of our interpretations, and how shame can interfere with our capacity to speak, listen, and learn. Along the way, we talk about unshaming the signs, honoring the wholeness of the people we work with, and cultivating enough self-trust to experiment, disagree, and change our minds. What if being an ethical astrologer isn't a destination we arrive at, but a relationship we practice every day?
In this Dark Moon Download, Britten comes through with a message that arrived on a run, in honor of Venus retrograde in Scorpio: unpopular opinion, leave him. The "him" isn't necessarily your husband (although, maybe it is). It's the contracts, arrangements and agreements we've worked so hard to make work. Britten talks about what Venus is revealing right now, the grief of realizing how much of our lives has gone into trying to be good enough, and what she found on the other side of saying no in her own life. In this episode, Britten explores: Why she loves planets in detriment and fall, including Venus retrograde in Scorpio
In this episode, Britten is joined by S.J. Anderson, the astrologer who coined the term Barbault's Basket. S.J. takes us into the work of French mundane astrologer André Barbault, the rare convergence of outer planetary cycles, and the story of how a phrase from a tweet became one of the biggest astrological conversations of the summer. They also talk about what happens when astrological language takes on a life of its own, including the myths and misunderstandings that spread alongside the excitement. In this episode, they explore: What Barbault's Basket actually is, and why its planetary configuration is so unusual
What the fuck is a "pop astrologer," anyway? In this episode, Britten talks with Tasha Beg of The Pop Astrologist about the strange and slippery divide between "pop astrology" and "real astrology," and what that divide reveals about seriousness, legitimacy, visibility, business, and belonging inside the astrological community. At the center of the conversation is a larger question: why does astrology, a tradition that has itself so often been dismissed as unserious, sometimes seem to need an "unserious astrology" inside itself? Topics They Cover: What we actually mean when we call someone a "pop astrologer," and how many different assumptions get collapsed into that label.
In this episode, Britten is joined by Danielle Rothschild of Little Mystic School for a conversation about astrology, childhood, motherhood, and the experience of feeling different from other people. Danielle shares how astrology became a way of understanding herself and validating the things she already knew somewhere inside, and how that eventually led to the work she now does with parents and children. Topics They Cover: Danielle's experience of feeling different from her peers, moving throughout Europe as a child, and carrying a deep sense of loneliness and instability.
