  • Saturn in Review: Effort vs. Rewards, Chart Placements, and Saturn's archetypes
    Feb 15 2023

    Welcome back, Spirit Travelers! In this episode, Kalee and Sonia discuss the themes of Saturn and it's role in both of their lives. For Kalee, Saturn being in Aquarius is all about bringing critical thinking into her routine and making sure it has been optimized in order to build a better future for herself. For Sonia, Saturn in Pisces is about refocusing on where passion and hard work are being channeled to while feeling the value of the efforts on a spiritual level. Coincidentally, this came in the form of new medical diagnoses for both of us, resulting in reproductive issues that absolutely makes us contemplate Saturn's theme of legacy. Join us for this episode's breakdown of Saturn's themes, it's presentation in our birth charts, and how we embrace the struggle!

  • Interview with Moss: Faith in Facts, Celtic Reconstructionism, and Deep Deconditioning
    Feb 8 2023

    Welcome back, Spirit Travelers! In this episode we interview Sonia's friend Moss. Every month we post an interview with someone about their unique spirituality--what they were raised in, how that's shifted over time, and what they believe now.

    Moss describes what life in Kentucky was like as a girl raised in an extreme Evangelical Christian household. Despite conditions, Moss never stopped questioning. This lead to an exploration of deconditioning and a deep fascination of religion, history, and anthropology. Today, Moss is deeply comforted by facts while also inspired by the spirit of nature, thus creating a unique blend between knowledge and spirituality that speaks to and for her. Now, a Pagan Celtic Reconstructionist and Worshipper of Cernunnos, Moss hopes to complete her Bog Witch goals one day. Join us for this interview full of historical facts, alarming revelations, and surreal silliness!

  • Saturn Quest Intro: New Foundations, Legacy in Practice, Mastering the Challenge
    Feb 1 2023

    Welcome back, Spirit Travelers! In this episode, Kalee and Sonia reveal that they have been inspired by the stars when deciding Season 2's theme. Following the guidelines of Hellenistic Astrology, we set forth on an ambitious journey to make the Quest Line as versatile as our listeners. We will specifically be following the Sun's rotation as it moves through the Signs and therefor, each quest will be roughly a month long. The Sun's current placement is in Aquarius (Jan 20th-Feb 18th) with the Ruler of Aquarius being Saturn. The Sun will next enter the Sign Pisces which is Ruled by the planet Jupiter. So the next Quest will be Jupiter themed. 

    Follow these steps to find your personal Saturn Quest Line:

    1. Have a Birth Date 
    2. Find your Free Birth Chart (www.astro.com)
    3. Locate the Saturn Symbol (looks like a t and an h combined)
    4. Your Quest Line = the Sign your Saturn Symbol is in (ex. Saturn Symbol in Cancer= Cancer themed Quest)

    Time Stamps for suggested Saturn themed Quests:

    • Sagittarius - 0:30:20
    • Capricorn - 0:33:47
    •  Aquarius - 0:37:13
    • Pisces - 0:41:04
    • Aries - 0:47:19
    • Taurus - 0:51:34
    • Gemini - 0:55:02
    • Cancer - 1:00:44
    • Leo - 1:08:06
    • Virgo - 1:11:20
    • Libra - 1:17:04
    • Scorpio - 1:20:52

  • Season 1 Self Review: A Year Long Chakra Quest, Human Design, and Future Goals
    Jan 4 2023

    Welcome back, Spirit Travelers! In this episode, Kalee and Sonia review what it was like to explore the Chakra System for an entire year and their opinions on the Human Design system. Listen along as we discuss the Pros and Cons of Season 1 and which Chakra points were easiest/hardest to work with. Oh, and we just couldn't help ourselves from spilling the tea about the Human Design System and why we think it's a Multi Level Marketing scheme with a dose of cult vibes on the side. If you love our strange brand of silliness, the insights we stumble onto, and the people we probe for answers, then you will love season 2!

Together, they end the episode on a creative note discussing the Why and How to customize your spirituality, along with the benefits of doing so. It has been an incredible journey exploring the ether with you fellow travelers. Thank you for diving into the unknown with us! We look forward to Season 2 and we hope you do too.

  • Interview with Us! Kalee and Sonia: Constant Curiosity, Radical Acceptance, and Healing with Love
    Nov 23 2022

    Welcome back, Spirit Travelers! In today's last interview episode of Season 1, Kalee and Sonia ask each other about their personal beliefs in spirituality. Every month we post an interview with someone about their unique spirituality--what they were raised in, how that has shifted over time, and what they believe now.

    In this episode, Kalee and Sonia recount how they both started from similar backgrounds influenced by Catholicism, Christianity, and grandmothers. They then go on to compare their own journeys to spirituality and how it has shaped them differently along the way.

    Kalee embraced the values taught to her through religion despite early disillusionment. She then started working on her own unique style of spirituality when faced with serious health problems. Today, Kalee has committed herself to spiritual growth where she finds love, tolerance, and One-ness. Sonia dabbled in spiritual experimentation as a child, but cast it aside along with religion when trying to overcome her trauma. Over the years, she has been slowly and deliberately trying to get back towards that part of herself. Today, Sonia has rediscovered that hidden part and has focused on understanding it's unique expression through her.  Together, Kalee and Sonia bring out their strengths in each other as they utilize Conscious Quests for accountability and community.

    To reach us with any questions, comments, or concerns--or if you'd like to be featured on one of these interview episodes--you can email us at consciousquests.info@gmail.com. We'd love to hear your thoughts.

  • Higher Powers, Celebrity Mythos, and Mental Health in Spirituality for the Crown Chakra's Witches Brew
    Nov 9 2022

    Welcome back, Spirit Travelers! In this episode Kalee and Sonia break down some of the ways the Crown Chakra is exercised in our Western Society.  But first, a quick talk about different ways the Crown shows itself in other cultures: Sonia talks about Sikhism and Kalee talks about they symbology of Halos. Then we dive into the Current Event portion where we discuss the need and the results of worshipping celebrities and figures that are not Devine (false idols). Why do we do it? What happens when we become disillusioned? Last, we sink our teeth into a touchy subject that persists in the spiritual community. Should people with mental health conditions practice spirituality? How does internal and external spiritual practice effect mental health? Join us for this month's Witches Brew episode for our answers to these juicy questions. 

    To reach us with any questions, comments, or concerns, you can email us at consciousquests.info@gmail.com. We'd love to hear your thoughts on this episode or if you decide to participate in this month's quest.

  • Sacred Spirituality, Worshipping the Divine, and Practicing Caution in this Month's Crown Chakra Quest Intro
    Nov 1 2022

    Welcome back, Spirit Travelers! In this episode Kalee and Sonia introduce the start of the next Quest. This month is all about the Crown Chakra. First we give some context about the Crown Chakra and the reason why we chose to worship Divinity for this month's Quest. Kalee will be dedicating herself to developing an intimate relationship with Spirit Guides and Symbols of Nature. Sonia will be spending her time dedicated to a single deity, Fraya, from Nordic Mythology. Together we aspire to learn more about ourselves when combined with the Sacred. A note of caution though: practicing the Crown Chakra can be very tricky when not done properly. We suggest working your way through the previous Chakra points and then coming back to the Crown once you have developed the tools necessary to navigate the Crown SAFELY. That being said, come listen along as we discuss what that means and how to do it.

    To reach us with any  questions, comments, or concerns, you can email us at consciousquests.info@gmail.com. We'd love to hear your thoughts on this episode or if you decide to participate in this month's quest.
