Another interview from last years 2023 NORWAC conference. This time with Stella Mowat and Cameron Cassidy of The Mercuranians. This was recorded in one of the hallways of the hotel.

Did not plan on this episode but when you have a chance to ask "3 Questions" in person and carry a recorder ...you Press Record. That is what Melissa LaFara and I did in a room that was alive and talking to us through sound creaks and clicks. Not really surpised though, it seems we attract the "energy." I had a great experience talking with Melissa and we covered many topics. She is a human with many talents and gifts. Astrologer, Tarot Practitioner, Writer, Musician and much more.

Hello! Welcome to November 2023! In this episode I battle barking dogs and roof hammering to bring you words connecting the transits of the week. Coming from a lingering Full moon Eclipse weekend. Venus in Virgo will connect to the outer body planets within one week. In the middle of that story Saturn in Pisces stands still ending its retrograde cycle. We now answer to Saturn and face the reality it brings. A special message for my Scorpio, Scorpio Rising and Moon humans towards the end of the episode.Support the showMy website:https://sparklesofgold.com/Youtube https://tinyurl.com/es38aydpPatreon Pagehttps://www.patreon.com/sparklesofgoldInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/sparklesofgold

Greetings! Back from a podcast break with an episode of 3 Questions with Astrologer Pix Wilder from Pixrtea Astrology. This recording is from May 2023 from the Northwest Astrological conference. We found a quiet room to talk, which if you have listened to my other interviews from the conference you'll notice the public noise in the background. It was nice departure. I've been watching Pixrtea's work on social media and their Youtube channel. She has built up an amazing community and I respect her astrological takes. We talk about several books in the episode. One being "Come as you Are" by Emily Nagoski. We mixed up the author with Esther Perel which is something Gemini's do because we are reading multiple books at the same time! LOL. Thanks for being on the podcast Pixrtea. See you back in Valisthea...I suggest you follow Pixrtea on her TikTok, IG and other channels! https://pixrtea.com/links You can also visit her website: https://pixrtea.com/Books mentioned in the episode: (affiliate links support the channel)The Only Astrology Book You'll Ever Need by Joanna Martine Woolfolkhttps://bookshop.org/a/3355/9781589796539 or https://amzn.to/47jGDbtCome As You Are: The Surprising New Science That Will Transform Your Sex Life by Emily Nagoskihttps://bookshop.org/a/3355/9781982165314 or https://amzn.to/45PTDo4The Ethical Slut: A Practical Guide to Polyamory, Open Relationships, and Other Freedoms in Sex and Love by Janet W.

Another edition of the 3 questions podcast this time with Astrologer and Publisher Rae Sapp.  Rae was attending the Northwest Astrological Conference representing The Mountain Astrologer Magazine where she is Director and Publisher.  I met Rae in 2022 at the ISAR conference where she sat behind the vendor table for the magazine. I distinctly remember her smile and huge bouquet of flowers on the table. The energy of her and the TMA Crew.  I felt the vibrant creativity again at the NORWAC conference.

This interview with Becca Tarnas was recorded during  the 2023 NORWAC gathering. I remember the first time Becca spoke at the conference years ago. Happy to see her evolution as a speaker over the years. I was especially engrossed with her lecture called: "Astrology and Psychedelics: A Symbiotic Relationship Is there a connection between astrology and psychedelics? At Esalen Institute in the mid-1970s, Stanislav Grof and his doctoral student Richard Tarnas were trying to solve the mystery of the inter- and intra-individual variability of LSD sessions. The radical suggestion that astrology might be the answer opened up a vast new domain of research. As the biographer of Grof, archetypal astrologer Becca Tarnas is uniquely positioned to present on this topic of the mutually illuminating relationship between psychedelics and astrology."

An interview with Demetra George from the 2023 Northwest Astrological conference. I did my best to find the quietest spot for this "3 Questions" Interview.I could of asked 20 more questions. She is always great to converse with. One thing I've noticed in my conversations over the years with Demetra is her thought out replies. Her pacing. Even on the go...on the fly..at the crossroads. While writing this I had to look up her chart.  Mercury in Leo Retrograde at 15 degrees ruling her Venus and Mars in Virgo. Her Mercury also square her MC and IC. On a personal note Her Moon at 21 Gemini , North Node at 20 Gemini with Uranus in Gemini at 20 is exactly Trine my 20 Gemini sun. Jupiter in Libra at 19.. Her ASC/DSC at 21 Leo and 21 Aquarius connect with my Sun also.  https://www.astro.com/astro-databank/George,_Demetra Thank you Demetra for another good convo!Here is Demetra's event page: https://demetra-george.com/schedule/Don't think twice on the "HOW TO CALCULATE A CHART BY HAND"  Sign up for the classes mentioned in the episode.

This week words slip and do not hit their mark but can scar. (Mercury station quincunx Mars) Then a moment of Regeneration especially for the Capricorns who realize it's "The End". The darkest of night part of the Opera (balsamic moon) into a Open World New Moon..with a different kind of contract signed between Venus and Saturn. Topped off with Uranus in Taurus stationing out of Retrograde. Say it with me: "NOW it's really Happy New Year!"

Mars is conjunct the Moon in this lunation. Lots of chatter, lots of opinions and the pushing of those words.
