Thanks for being Here! Instead of dipping a toe into the Human Design ocean, we are diving in head-first, because the world's energy right now just won't take no for an answer.

Today we take a journey with Pluto through the Root Center, to get some context and perspective on the literal How of evolution, and everything that development tends to trigger right now. Our intention: Comfort through context, a sense of home through tapping into the purposefulness of it all.

Thanks for being Here! After 2.5 years, I now have something new (more?) to yap about- Human Design. Astrology & Stuff is evolving into Your Design & Stuff. I'm still talking astrology, healing, evolution, just now with the level of detail to embodiment that only Human Design can bring. Thank you to everyone who started listening and followed me over to my Patreon- thank you for all the support! Just like the pod, the Patreon will remain, just under slightly different branding. Hope to hear from you over there, please take care of yourselves! Love you all~

Gemini season is here and happy! Taylor, who is also a Gemini Sun/Libra rising friend and client (same as friend Roxanne from last time), shows us what happens when Air and Fire come together - all the Love, all the Light, as well as a heady courage that fuels our abilities to take on the world, one smile at a time. (Seriously, her smile is megawatt- see for yourself on her Insta).

Taylor Kowald is a woman, a mother, an actress, a meditator, and an all around passionate person moving through the world! She likes to stay curious and find the magic in the mundane. Astrology has been a great tool for her on her awakening journey, and she can't wait to keep discovering more in the most playful ways possible.

As for me, my June books are open, and I am so excited to be launching a new offering very soon - Safe Space: Easy Classes for Hard Subjects. Safe Space is a multimedia digital space for easeful practice and curious peeks into all the transformation that is taking place in our Root centers. This is where the evolution of our stories around money, sex & love, illness & healing, and reparenting all begin. We're all doing so much of that right now, I wanted to provide an additional space for softness and self-love. Safe Space goes live very soon!

Also, come check me out on Patreon, where we have weekly Transit Talks, monthly Q&A's, and every New & Full moon we have practice-oriented livestreams. Come play with us!

This episode treats us to a conversation I had with my friend and practitioner Roxanne Starnik. This is a Gemini/Libra-fueled convo, as there aren't many subjects we don't gleefully cover, and we finish almost all of them (my fault, not hers)! We discuss the fundamental importance of synchronicities in life, the necessary place for Pause, what it's like to have a Cancer moon and dumb guides, the abundant grace of the Gene Keys, and the absorbing magic of Small Nature.

Roxanne Starnik is a guide for the tender-hearted, the spiritually itchy, and the creatively uncontainable. She weaves music, mysticism, intuitive voice work, and the Gene Keys into a warm, subversive kind of medicine - one that doesn't fix you, but invites you back to yourself. Her podcast Pause Portal holds space for strange beauty, gut-truths, and the kind of laughter that comes only after crying. Roxanne believes in the transformational power of the pause and that intimacy is a form of time travel. Her work lives at the crossroads of tenderness and truth-telling, inviting people into deeper relationship with the honest, often contradictory rhythms of being alive.

She can be found on Instagram: @Roxanne.Starnik

Don't miss her on Patreon or at Pause Portal, where she releases episodes of wisdom on the Gene Keys transits.

What a fantastic way to open Season 2- with a conversation about the transmutation that happens within our deepest selves, and the inherent creativity, beauty and liberation that resides there.

As I've said before, this season is all about harmony, connection, and the relationships between our inner desires and their external manifestations. Going on this journey with us today is the inimitable Ms. Themis. Ms. Themis is an artist dominatrix, decadent disciplinarian, and distinguished keeper of the sacredly enslaved.

She uses Domination as a pathway to soulful liberation and employs the art of BDSM to expand somatic sensation and self-awareness through bringing etheric fantasy into embodied reality, cultivating subtle spaces of deep and nourishing s u r r e n d e r...

Her personal BDSM journey started as a submissive and her studies of KMRT® kundalini entrainment as well as schooling with a collection of world-renowned Dominatrices form the foundation of her unique expression of this ancient ant intimate art form.

She can be found on Instagram: @houseofthemis

as well as her website: www.houseofthemis.co

As always, so much love, and thanks for being Here!

Welcome back and thanks for being Here! Astrology & Stuff is returning very soon - with guests! I am so excited to get to share some of my favorite people with you. Each episode, they will share with us their own personal stories of astrological embodiment - how they relate to their astrology, and how the language has enabled them to connect with themselves as authentic individuals, as well as develop more enriching lives. I wanted to have these specific folks on because they have been such an inspiration to me at one time or another in my life, but mostly because they, as well as their stories, are deeply, impossibly interesting! So stay tuned!

You can find much, much more over on the Patreon. We have weekly episodes based on the present astrological transits, as well as practice-oriented livestreams twice a month. Come join us!

You can also find me on Instagram and TikTok.

Love you all!

Thanks for being Here! This is an episode from the Patreon, and as such it is different from the usual Astrology & Stuff episodes that I record and edit, as it's a bit more abrupt/raw. About halfway through recording it for the Patreon, I decided that I wanted to hear from a wider audience about this particular subject. Welcome to the family! ;)

In this episode, I try to take a critical look at the subject of "Spiritual Bypassing." The concept and practice specifically, but also the general culture from which it has emerged. It's been my intention to do this in as coherent and logical a way as possible, but as I state in the beginning, this particular a-ha has only recently presented itself, I"m still gathering vocabulary to make it a bit more linear. Have fun trying to keep up lol.

CW: I reference, but do not describe, familial and ritualistic abuse as they relate to the Satanic Panic.

If you would like to weigh in on this subject, please do so! Simply follow this link to my Patreon page, where you can join as a free member, then find the episode in the feed, and comment to share your perspective/experience. Hope to hear from you!

I reference to more resources regarding moral panics, the Satanic Panic, and psychology/therapy culture of the 70s, 80s, and 90s: The amazing podcast You're Wrong About, created by my amazing friend Sarah Marshall.

Thanks for being Here! This episode continues the mini-serious of planetary embodiment- or, how we can help bring all this astrology down to Earth a bit. Today we discuss Jupiter, Saturn's partner in teaching us the fundamental laws of universal reality. What does it feel like to move through a Jupiter transit? What forms can expansion take in living a conscious life? What happens when we conflate expansion with capitalism? These light and fluffy questions and more are discussed.
