Angie offers Tarot readings for the month, talks with fellow healers, artists, raconteurs, circle keepers, space holders, medicine people, storytellers, troublemakers and psychics about how to do this thing called life.
One of my areas of study in my undergraduate degree was the religions and cults in the Mediterranean—from Ancient Greek religion to Roman to Judaism and into early Christianity. Through this work, you can see the commonalities in these moral and cultural norms as well as the religious similarities, and of course, I continue to feel frustrated at seeing the talk, through the world, about immigrants. Whether they are illegal, how do we treat them, how do we “protect” our land, resources. It always makes me wonder if the laws of hospitality that were SO incredibly important to the religions and governments in the Bible and Ancient Greek religion and culture (the “basis for our own constitution”) matter to those in charge. Do they understand the root of the messages they seem to preach? So, rather than get on a soap box and condemn the hypocrite I wanted to talk about stranger and hospitality in Greek Myth and in the Bible that you might think you know. We will discuss Xenia (Greek: ξενία [kse'ni.a]) and Theoxeny.References and SourcesMythology of Hospitality, by Alilia Athena, Aug 10,2024: https://paleothea.com/cultural-myths/mythology-of-hospitality/The Stranger from Bible Hub: https://biblehub.com/topical/t/the_stranger.htm A Brief Biblical Case for LGBTQ inclusion, The ReformationProject: https://reformationproject.org/case/sodom-and-gomorrah/ The Story Of Sodom And Gomorrah Asks Us To Consider Our OwnInhospitality.

They have told the church about your love. Please send them on their way in a manner that honors God. It was for the sake of the Name that they went out, receiving no help from the pagans. We ought therefore to show hospitality to such people so that we may work together for the truth.”

Ever wonder why stories of women in mythology and religion so often paint them as the villains? From Pandora opening the jar of evils to Medusa's transformation into a monster, these tales shape cultural narratives that endure today. In this episode, Angie dives into ancient Greek mythology to unpack how women like Pandora, Medusa, and Circe have been scapegoated for humanity's woes—and how feminist perspectives reclaim their stories as symbols of curiosity, defiance, and resilience. We'll explore the gods' messy, human-like flaws, Zeus's power plays, and Hera's complicated transformation from a powerful pre-Greek goddess to a vengeful Olympian queen. This is part one of a series on “Wicked Women,” examining how patriarchal storytelling turns women's strength into cautionary tales. Want Angie to cover Adam, Eve, Lilith, and the Abrahamic traditional takes on women next? Let her know! Email, DM, or comment—because these stories deserve a closer look.

Episode 73: Q+A Episode on Existentialism, the Meaning of Life + the Gospels according to Angie I am answering some questions from my listeners, and they ended up being long. Little did they know they hit on some of my special interests as a neurodivergent religion + philosophy nerd. (hello, sailor!) Here are the questions and time where you can find them: Question 1 : (at 4:35) from Becky Davis, ACM How do we find meaning when our day-to-day lives feel empty? Question 2 : (at 29.06) from Lee Ann Huebner This is something I've been meaning to research forever. When did the quote in the Bible from Jesus saying he was the only way to God first show up? Cause I'm not buying it. One it doesn't seem like something he would say and why would God exclude much of the human souls on this planet with a one line quote. I also discuss Spirit of Oneness in Harrisburg PA, hosted by Sharon Muzio of Alta View Wellness Center. You can find more information at http://spiritofonenessevent.com. It takes place Saturday, October 5th from 10am to 6pm and Sunday, October 6th from 10am to 5pm.

Episode 72: Chronic Conditions, Pain & Positivity with Julie Taylor I am so honored to introduce Julie Taylor. Julie is an Endo and IC Warrior who's passionate about mindset as medicine. Endo is an abbreviation for endometriosis and IC stands for Interstitial Cystitis (a painful bladder syndrome). While healing with these chronic conditions, she learned the power of crystals and energy to heal and how using a positive mindset as a tool to help manage her moods and emotions helped her body build resilience. Julie's formal degrees are in writing and early childhood ed, though the innate cheerleader at home in her heart drives her to write words, she hopes will spark a mood or mindset that might brighten things for others. Julie is the author of a children's book, Blue Hissy Highness and the Shiny Stones (you can buy that here). The book focuses on how a positive mindset can reframe and heal. It also reminds children that we can move toward mutual acceptance and forgiveness, but also the very adult reminder that acceptance isn't a one-and-done ideal—a lesson we need to revisit as we age. Julie also tends a website and an online space called Stone Spelling & Witchery, which is also the name of her private Facebook group Stone Spelling & Witchery to connect and share the metaphysical and mystical, celebrate earth and moon cycles, share spells, post favorite crystals, chat about witchiness, and ask questions. Julie curates a beautiful community that serves as a magical hub for joy and positivity. In this episode, Julie and I talk about living with chronic conditions and chronic pain, how we manage our spirit during times of flares. We talk about positivity, staying positive, toxic positivity or not toxic positivity, the benefits and downfalls of emotional bypassing, and what Julie has terms LoMo—or how to manage Low Moods and shift them to help with chronic conditions. Honestly, this is such an awesome, refreshing conversation. As someone who has to manage many chronic autoimmune conditions, I find simply speaking my truth about living with pain and fatigue can be important.
This episode is a discussion about the spiritual illness of substance use and alcohol use disorders as we kick off National Recovery Month. Angie wrote and continues to write essays about recovery and addiction and the spiritual illness and dis-ease around addiction.

Episode 70: the Rat Chronicles with Dr. Amy Kittelstrom Dr. Amy Kittelstrom, is a professor of history at Sonoma State University and author of the book the Religion of Democracy (https://www.amazon.com/Religion-Democracy-Liberals-American-Tradition/dp/1594204853) . I asked this incredibly accomplished historian to talk about “Rats,” the rodents, and the proverbial rats of the world. We talk about what it is like to be a single mother homeowner and accomplished historian who needs some home repairs done and rats removed from the house. I am grateful for the opportunity to share Dr. Kittelstrom, one of my closest friends, with my world. Disclaimers: Our discussion verges on politics, some of which might not be your politics. We also talk about feminism and the trauma of being a woman in a deeply patriarchal and ultimately misogynistic society. That might not be your point of view. We also talk about rodents and having to kill rodents, particularly as Buddhists.
In this episode, which I initially wrote as an open letter to my clients and friends, is actually a series of writings about workaholism, alcoholism, codependency, self-care, self-preservation, being of service to others and some of my history. It is split up in 6 parts. I hope it resonates. As mentioned, my book will open in a few weeks. You can subscribe to my newsletter for updates at http://themoonandstone.com or follow me on social media. I also mention some things. Last words are Those last four words are not mine.

In this episode of Centered, Angie answers some of the many questions she has received since her last Q&A episode in May on Astrology! Specifically, she is waxing a bit philosophic about life of life's terms, being present, reacting vs. responding, sacred pause, being comfortable with being uncomfortable, authenticity and parenting and more. Here are the questions: 1. What is the best practice/stone to NOT shoot your mouth off at work? (seriously) 2. How do you know that you are doing the right thing with your life? 3. As a mother, how do you manage to show up as your authentic self in your business when your day is filled with chaos and managing tiny human's schedules including your own? Do you have a specific crystal or ritual you do before you start working that helps ground you in the moment and clear your mind to focus on the task at hand?

Buckle up, Buttercup! Angie spent a few months dotting her Is and crossing her Ts with this mega-questions from Natalie: My question is: would you be willing to talk a little bit about astrology? My questions kind of fall into 3 buckets: 1. Maybe you could give a high-level overview of how you think about and approach astrology, including sun sign versus moon sign versus rising sign. 2. And/or maybe a quick description of each sign. Along with how you characterize them. I suppose this could be a full podcast in its own right. Or maybe even 12 of them lol. 3. And/or how do you incorporate astrology into your readings and your life? Sure, we could have broke all these questions up and not given you a 1.5 hour podcast, but then you'd have to wait, and Angie spent so much time connecting the dots, telling you the Ancient Greek myths associated with the constellations and zodiac, breaking down each sign, house, placement, etc....so, you don't have to! Take your time and listen. Angie worked hard to make it manageable and understandable for someone who knows nothing about astrology. It is a lot. Angie is a lot. But that is what happens when you ask a Capricorn Sun, Taurus Moon and Gemini Rising to do a little research. Enjoy it! UPDATE: I was just existing in my home and I was like, "I can't believe I couldn't remember what happens to Ouranos/Uranus' castrated penis!" It gets thrown into the sea and from the sea foam, Aphrodite emerges. (Venus on a half shell, y'all know that one!) So, it didn't become something in the universe. It became the Goddess of Love and Lust. Oooo lala --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/angie-yingst/message

I am answering questions again. I like to answer questions, so keep them coming.This time I invited Kyra Paules to join me. We exchanged some Marco Polos about it, and then we jumped on Zoom. Do we do shadow work or does the shadow work us? That is not the question we answer, but we say it at some point. So, Kyra and I thought we would answer some questions about shadow work, but really we only answer one question. Why are we qualified to talk about shadow anything? We like it. Also, Kyra is training to be a Jungian analyst, she is an official shadow retrieval facilitator and a therapist. I am a shamanic practitioner and we basically are shadowy creatures that like to explore the liminal spaces. And I am in recovery and we do shadow work, even though we don't call it that. We call it the fourth and fifth step. Here are the questions we actually were asked: Tan - My question is: how do you integrate shadow work? Shadow work gives us breakthroughs and revelations, most of the time I end up not knowing how to integrate it. How do I implement the changes? Sometimes I might even have a glimpse of what I need to do but actually doing it becomes hard. Maybe ego sabotages your missions with laziness or talks you out of it. How can we integrate our shadow in a way we don't fell into it again? Beka - yes, break it down on how one can do shadow work, ID your shadows etc. If you want to find Kyra, go to http://awentarot.com and you can always find me at http://themoonandstone.com --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/angie-yingst/message

Angie shares the Tarot card of the month and the Earth Medicine Allies (plant, animal and crystals) to work with this month! Some show notes: From my mentor Hibiscus Moon: Information about Turquoise: https://hibiscusmooncrystalacademy.com/turquoise-properties/ Great blogpost about Sunflower Medicine from the Sacred Gardener: https://thesacredgardener.ca/chickadee-teachings-and-sunflower-medicine/ Quoting from this blogpost by Steven Martyn: "We can also bring Sunflower's shining radiance to our skin, topically. To make a healing salve, cream or ointment from Sunflower, there is an easy traditional method. I came across this as a Russian practice, but I think it's likely that every culture that grew this generous being figured this one out because it's dead easy. The whole heads are used to make an oil; for skin ailments, stiffness and rheumatoid arthritis. Harvest the flower heads as they begin to loose their petals, so seeds have formed on the outside but are also still ripening in the centre, (I also throw in leaves and small young heads in full-petal as well). Break them up a bit and fill a clay, enamel or glass pot with them. Add just enough spring water, so that they will boil down to a mash. If you don't have spring or well water, then first, leave out an open cloth covered bowl of city water for a couple days. Most of the additives evaporate from the water in that time if there is adequate surface area. Keep the mash on a low simmer for a day or sun-infuse them for a couple sunny days, until the plant material looks visibility sapped. Strain out the plant material with a fine mesh sieve. Of the liquid left, the oil will float to the top. Skim off the oil. Store in cool area, fridge or freezer until you need to use it. The green water part, will make the oil go funky if left in, but has medicine and can be added in as the water portion when making salves or creams. This is not just sunflower oil but a powerful herbal infused liniment, all in one. Ready to rub, or be added as an oil into salve mixture. Truly a miracle plant."
