Conversations to illuminate and support our awakening into the high-vibe version of the Age of Aquarius, as organic, embodied humans.
A proud product of public education, John Coleman received his undergraduate degree in history from Western Connecticut State University. Alas, that was to be the end of his flattering academic titles. Unwilling to once again become a debt slave to usurers, his graduate studies were scotched at the half-way point. John wasted over a decade of his professional life attempting to establish a high school for a community who took neither themselves nor their worldview seriously. Burned by these unseemly experiences, on Holy Saturday of 2013 Apocatastasis Institute was founded.The Institute primarily exists to protect the humanities in se, and to provide a haven for academics in a disintegrating professional field. The author of Hurt: Some Thoughts On Disillusion, Distrust, and Disorientation These Last Few Years (2015), The Trotsky Train: Some Words To The Discupulate (2018), An Excess Of Love (2024), and Pearls Before Swine (2024), John daily continues his work of restoring formal classroom learning in light of the proper personal, social, and political ends of a school.In 2025 John won the Excellence In Education award from the Education 2.0 conference organization. I first got to know John a few years ago, when I studied Latin under his excellent tutelage at Apocatastasis. I interviewed him for the podcast back in November, 2022: Agency, Vision and Discipline. John and I intended to focus this conversation on health and the connections between health and education, but we ended up having a much broader discussion, exploring questions like: What makes a healthy society? What's the role of education in reforming society? And how does a conditioned lack of agency impede that reform? We talked about:* Formal education as the last coming-of-age ritual we all share in common – and how and why John believes that ritual is coming to an end;* The role of AI in future education – and what John sees as a positive outcome of that trend;* How commerce has taken over education and turned teachers into “service sector workers” vs. the role that teachers have historically played;* Formal education as a fulcrum for social reform – and what kind of education would contribute to a healthy society;* How modern pedagogy saps the agency of both students and teachers – and lack of agency as a fundamental social problem;* And much more!In the conversation, John mentions an article by Ted Gioia: What's Happening to Students?Find out about John's work:* main site: www.ApocatastasisInstitute.wordpress.com* Apocatastasis on Substack* Geopolitical Turnings Conference Replays* coming up in July: Health Conference* Rumble channel* Bitchute channel* Telegram channel* Contact John: apocatastasisinstitute@aol.com This is a public episode.

A week ago, on March 30th, Neptune moved into Aries for the first time in our lives. The planet of dreams, spirituality, Source and the unconscious last journeyed through the sign of the Ram from 1861-1875. A slow-moving planet changing signs is a very big deal! It's like entering a new era, a new chapter - both collectively and in our personal lives. This year we'll get a preview of Neptune in Aries until October 25th, and then Neptune will reverse back into Pisces. Neptune will return to Aries on January 26, 2026 and stay until 2039.As we're in this transitional phase of Neptune's sign change, I thought it would be useful to review the past 14 years of Neptune in Pisces. To that end, I'm sharing a talk I gave in 2011, when Neptune first entered Pisces. The talk was at New Renaissance Bookstore in Portland, Oregon. I re-listened and thought it was actually pretty great (except for the thousands of “um's” throughout the talk - geez, I hope I've improved on that front!). I'm going to teach a live webinar all about Neptune in Aries on Friday, April 25th, 9am Pacific/12pm Eastern - more details soon! (And yes, there will be a recording if you can't make it live.) This class will be FREE to all paid subscribers! If you're already a paid subscriber, you'll automagically receive the Zoom link and the replay. If you're not already a paid subscriber, you can upgrade below, or the class will be available for purchase (registration coming soon). In the meantime, notice what's shifted for you over the past week - what have you sensed since Neptune moved into Aries? Especially in your spiritual life, the dreamtime, art and creativity, healing… I'm looking forward to hearing all about it on the 25th - and to sharing my own noticings.And p.s.! My upcoming collaboration with the magnificent energy worker Katie Todd starts next Thursday, and we've got a few openings.

Equinox Greetings!Yesterday I gathered with founding subscribers for our quarterly livestream to celebrate the Equinox. I started the livestream with an interpretation of the Equinox chart and I want to share the audio with you because this Equinox is highly unusual and a Very Big Deal. The chart of the Equinox can be read as a blueprint for the new season, and as the “birth chart” for the new astrological year.Why is this Equinox so special? For the first and only time in our lives, the Equinox Sun - at the very first degree of the zodiac (0 Aries) - is conjunct Neptune at the very last degree of the zodiac (29 Pisces). AND, according to Bibhu dev Misra, author of Yuga Shift: The End of the Kali Yuga & the Impending Planetary Transformation, this Equinox marks the end of the Kali Yuga (may it be so!).This Equinox also occurs between two powerful Eclipses, and features both Mercury and Venus retrograde.Listen to the above audio (23 minutes) for all the Virgoan details! The Equinox chart is below. At the start of the livestream, I played Shine, by Fia, which feels like an appropriate Equinox anthem.If you're already a founding subscriber, you can find the full video replay here. If you would like to join me and our amazing community for future livestreams, you can become a founding subscriber below.Also! Re-Ignite Your Money Magic - A Venus Retrograde Reset & Upgrade starts tomorrow, and you're welcome to jump in! I'm collaborating with Soul Sherpa Anné Klint and we're excited to support you to make the most of this Venus retro and come into a more conscious, joyful and abundant relationship with Money. Wishing you a miraculous Equinox rebirth! love, Emily This is a public episode.

Dawn Lester is a researcher and writer. She is co-author of What Really Makes You Ill (2019) and The Nature of Reality (2010).The decade-long research and writing project that led to What Really Makes You Ill, involved taking a much deeper look into a whole variety of topics, not just health, and led to the inevitable discovery that so much of what we're told is wrong. This in turn enabled Dawn to re-examine some of the more difficult experiences of her own life, including her cancer diagnosis and subsequent treatment in the mid-1990s.Through her understanding of the nature of reality, she has been able to gain valuable insights and view those painful past experiences from a different perspective, one that shows us that we are not victims of our past and that the future is not fixed. Instead, our past informs us about life, who we are, and what we can do right NOW to bring about the future we want.Inspired by the famous saying to ‘Be the change you wish to see in the world', Dawn shares her insights and understanding to help people identify, process, and resolve the challenges they face, and create the life they wish to experience.I first connected with Dawn through Brandon Thomas and his amazing Expanding Reality community, and then via my recent podcast guest, Sol Luckman. I loved talking with Dawn and sharing our perspectives on illness, health, healing, consciousness, and the nature of the body and reality.We talked about:* How a diagnosis of cancer was a wake-up call for Dawn to make major changes and explore the esoteric side of life;* The erroneous assumption behind the modern medical paradigm - that the body is like a machine;* Why AI-based medicine is destined to fail;* What symptoms actually are - messages from the body rather than problems to be suppressed or fixed;* Fear of illness vs. trusting our bodies' wisdom;* What the placebo and nocebo effects reveal about the power of the mind to influence the body;* And much more!Find out more about Dawn's work:* Dawn's writings on Substack* Dawn on Facebook* Dawn on Instagram* See Dawn at Confluence, May 7-12, 2025 This is a public episode.

Tom Franklin was born in Baltimore Maryland in 1980. A man of many interests and talents Tom joined the U.S. Army where he was sent to Germany. After his military stint Tom moved back to Germany where he started to learn guitar and started a band, also learning things like snowboarding, windsurfing and painting along the way. Also, while in Germany Tom started standup comedy. Tom quickly learned how hard the artform was and dedicated himself to it and found out he enjoyed talking and interacting with others more then he previously thought. When the pandemic struck Tom moved his family to Mexico where he now resides. He then started his podcast “The Eye of Jupiter.” He interviews people about all manner of high strangeness, be it the paranormal, Bigfoot, U.F.O.s and alike or fundamental yet mysterious concepts such as consciousness, spirituality, religion, and psychedelics. Tom uses light-hearted humor and laughter to tease out the realness of each of his guest's stories, experiences, and personalities. So, get your popcorn, or cup of tea ready because “The Eye of Jupiter” will leave you hopefully feeling better and wanting more. Tom is currently doing standup in Spanish and is in the middle of working on his off-grid dream.I met Tom via the Expanding Reality community and was inspired by his adventurous life and creative pursuits. He invited me on his Eye of Jupiter podcast, and, since Tom was new to astrology, we took a spontaneous look at his chart. As it turns out, he has both the Sun and Moon in Aquarius - a perfect reflection of his unconventional life, love of freedom, commitment to creativity, and interest in all things outside-the-box.In our wide-ranging conversation, we got into:* Tom's massive transition from living a “normal life” in Germany to forging an off-grid homestead in the Mexican rainforest;* The mind-opening, deprogramming influence of George Carlin and Bill Hicks;* The addictive nature of standup comedy, and doing standup in Germany and Mexico;* Tom's paranormal experiences, including encounters with a poltergeist and Hat Man;* Freedom, creativity and living life to the fullest as a double Aquarius;* And much more!Check out Tom's work:* The Eye of Jupiter podcast on YouTube * Tom Franklin Art channel on YouTube * The Eye of Jupiter on Rumble* Facebook * Reddit* Email Tom: theeyeofjupiterpodcast@gmail.com This is a public episode.

Katie Todd is a powerful energy magician who was first introduced to energy work at the age of 12. Since then she has since studied with many gifted healers, shamans, and spiritual leaders, and eventually created her own unique brand of energy work, The Flow of Grace. This work is best described as a gentle, yet high-voltage current of energy containing the soul's wisdom channeled into the body.Katie works with clients one-on-one and in group sessions, and she is also a professional artist, bringing her higher vision and healing intent into gorgeous abstracted landscape paintings.Katie and I have been good friends and soul sisters on the path for more than 20 years. She first came on the podcast in December 2022 (This Field of Oneness That Just Wants to Love) and I felt inspired to bring her back for a conversation about Chiron.Chiron - the archetype of the shaman, wounded healer, mentor and initiator - is living large right now. The April 8th solar eclipse precisely conjoined with Chiron, planting seeds for a new 19-year cycle of healing. And, Mercury is forming three conjunctions with Chiron during its current retrograde cycle, inviting deeper inquiry and a shift of perception about our wounds, healing path and how we bridge matter and spirit.Katie recently completed her Chiron return, which happens for everyone around age 50, when Chiron “returns” to where it was when you were born. This is a period of accelerated healing, when core wounds rise to the surface to be met, held and transmuted. Having witnessed Katie ROCK her Chiron return - and even have fun with the process - I knew she had valuable guidance to share during this Chirotic time.This conversation will be especially relevant for you if you were born with Chiron in Aries (roughly between 1968-1977), or have aspects between Chiron and the Moon. We talked about:* Katie's fun, magical and wondrous Chiron return journey;* Chiron-Moon themes of the wounded feminine, the healing power of simply BEING, and the permission to feel ALL the feelings;* Chiron in Aries themes of the right to exist, what's motivating our actions, wounds to the desire nature, and feeling and expressing anger;* Guidance for navigating the healing process;* And much more!Find out more about Katie and her offerings at KatieTodd.net; join Katie for a group energy transmission This is a public episode.

dear friend,If you're new to my Substack, welcome! If you were already subscribed to my podcast, you'll now also receive written bi-weekly astro-energy updates, timed around the New and Full Moons. (Basically, what I used to send to my newsletter list via Squarespace - those two entities are merging.)Paid subscribers receive my New and Full Moon transmissions. These bi-weekly, 45-minute-ish recordings illuminate the current and upcoming astro-influences, what they're asking of you, and how you can best work with them. Founding subscribers are also welcome to join me at a quarterly livestream, where you can connect with our amazing community, ask your astro-questions, and share what's showing up in your world. The first livestream will be Saturday, September 23rd.The Pisces Full Moon transmission is a gift, so if you're not familiar with my work, you can check it out. Enjoy, and if you feel so inspired, you can upgrade to a paid subscription. love, EmilyThe Embodied Aquarian Age is a reader-supported publication. The Leo New Moon that started this lunar cycle (August 16th) was a call to radically own your creative power. Now the Pisces Full Moon, the culmination of the cycle, reveals the unconscious blocks that get in your way. What is ready to be healed, released, surrendered or alchemized so you can become the creator god/goddess you were born to be? This will be the third of four consecutive Super Full Moons. Just as the Moon will appear larger and brighter than usual, FEELINGS may also be super-sized. There's a lot to grieve, process, digest and integrate, and it's all likely to come up around this lunation. This is a time to retreat, to allow time and space for simply BEING, feeling and resting. The veil is thin at this Full Moon and support and guidance are available by connecting with the dreamtime, your infinite soul self, invisible allies and the Great Mystery. I go into all the Virgoan details in the 53-minute recording. If you have some astro-techno skills, you can get more insight into what this Full Moon means for YOU. Find the house in your birth chart that contains 7° Pisces. The areas of life signified by this house are where events are coming to fruition, culmination or completion and where you're invited to: * reconnect with your spiritual source and receive an infusion of divine love; * open to guidance from your dreams, intuition and imagination; * surrender having to have all the answers or the perfect plan and trust the mysterious flow of life; * let go of, grieve and dissolve the past;* recognize and release your inner Victim; * and allow for more acceptance, compassion and forgiveness.The card I picked for this Full Moon, from The Mayan Oracle by Ariel Spilsbury and Michael Bryner, was Imix.Qualities: source of life, divine nurturance and support, primordial Mother, undivided primal waters, primal trust and nourishment, receptivity, self-loveShadow Wisdom: issues of deep, primal trust and survival, lack of self-love, feeling unsupported by divine nurturance or unworthy to receive, betrayal, abandonmentShadow Transformation: Surrender and trust in the larger pattern to provide what you need. Open to receive. Communicate your feelings, desires and dreams.Affirmation: “I trust unconditionally the source of divine nurturance.”“Imix sounds a call in your life to go beneath the surface, to plumb your own primal depths. Go to the abundant wellspring of the life force to find the nourishment for which you yearn. In trust and receptiveness is found the source of movement. From the primordial waters of unity flows the spiral of eternal emergence. Allow others to give fully to you, for in that receptivity the circuit of love is completed.“The entire universe is made up of love. Give and receive. If you are not fully receiving the gifts offered by the universe, you can short-circuit your connection with the natural spirals of growth. Give freely and unconditionally without attachment to how your gift is received. Dip into the deep well of self and fill your cup with sweet waters. Offer this gift unconditionally. Trust in the situation at hand.“Primal trust means making choices moment by moment, with no guarantees. It means not trying to control the outcomes in your life. Trust your steering mechanism of heart-knowing. Trust the transformational processes that are at work in your evolution.“Call on Imix, the source of life, primal waters of creation, the root source, the primordial Mother, to nourish and care for you. In truly accepting this reservoir of sustenance, you will have unlimited resources to care for others as well as yourself. Remember that you are always embraced in the arms of the Divine, no matter what the exterior circumstances of your process or situation.” - Ariel Spilsbury This is a public episode.

Sally K. Norton, MPH holds a nutrition degree from Cornell University and a master's degree in Public Health. Her path to becoming a leading expert on dietary oxalate includes a prior career working at major medical schools in medical education and public health research.

I was thrilled to get to talk with Barbara about the fascinating information and insights revealed in her trilogy.We covered:* The breakdown of world religions at the end of the Age of Pisces;* Why the Catholic Church instituted celibacy for priests, and the connection between celibacy and the sexual abuse of children;* The second dimension (inner earth) as our source of health – and viruses as “an issue of the second dimension;”* The higher potential of sexuality as an avenue to multidimensional consciousness – and the repression of human sexuality as a form of control;* Barbara's reflections on the end of the Mayan Calendar in 2011-2012;* The consciousness-raising “harmonic convergence” of planets in 2026-27;* And much more!Find out about Barbara's work and read her quarterly astro-updates on her site: HandClow2012.com This is a public episode.

Our conversation occurred as the Sun and Chiron were coming together for their annual conjunction. We covered:* Dale's unique approach to understanding astrology and communicating with the planets;* Why he discourages focusing on Chiron as the Wounded Healer;* Chiron as the misfit, the outsider, the shaman, and the Serenity Prayer;* Honoring our animal bodies - or becoming "hackable animals;"* Why we're in a “Dark Soul” phase from February 2020 until 2028 – and the Chiron in Aries attitude that can help us get through;* The threat to the soul's survival as the dark shadow possibility of this Aquarian Age;* The higher Chiron in Taurus potential of returning to nature and our natural humanness;* And much more!Find out more about Dale's work, read his articles and sign up for his newsletter: ChironSoulJourneyTruth.comContact Dale: chironguy@pacinfo.comDale on Substack:Find out about Emily's astrology readings and classes: EmbodiedAquarian.com This is a public episode.

Ian FergusonIan has spent the majority of his life seeking truth both within and without. At age 24 he began a 20-year journey into the depths of his spiritual nature. In the mid 2000's Ian apprenticed with a Siberian shaman whose line came from Kamchatka. Though brief, this apprenticeship activated Ian psychically and marked an acceleration of his spiritual journey. This culminated in rediscovering the arte of Jyotish, "The Science of Light," also known as Vedic Astrology. Ian has since realized that the deep resonance he feels with Jyotish is due to many past lives as an Astrologer in Vedic India. A few years ago, Ian began his journey into the Celestial current of the Most High via his exploration of Angelic Magick. Over the course of two years of intense ritual workings, Ian made his way through the nine choirs and three celestial angelic spheres and currently he works with the Seraphim. This portion of his spiritual journey has in turn led to an increase in his already very strong psychic gifts. Now Ian uses these gifts and skills to help guide others as we traverse the storm-swept seas of Late Kali Yuga.I was first introduced to Ian through the Aquarian High Council - he was one of the featured presenters at the summit. He has a fascinating perspective on these times, informed by his in-depth astrological and historical research, as well as his psychic perception.Our conversation went longer than usual - he had a lot to share! In our two-hour, wide-ranging conversation, we covered:* Ian's personal journey from Muggle to Magician;* How angels helped Ian heal from trauma and break a 30-year addiction;* The intensity of karmic clearing at the end of the Kali Yuga – a different kind of “Great Reset”;* Moloch as the presiding deity of the Kali Yuga – and how trauma keeps us stuck in Molochian consciousness;* What the coming Luciferian Age will look like – “Renaissance Florence with free energy” – and the eventual Golden Age;* The rising chaos of the next two years before the closing of the Kali Yuga in 2025;* Predictions for the future that Ian received from the Angels;* And much more!Find out about Ian's astrology readings, spritual consultations and Magick classes at: WhiteLotusofLight.comIan's YouTube channel This is a public episode.

I was inspired to record a transmission detailing this potent cosmic moment. If you want a visual, you can find the last quarter Moon chart here (the PDF will automatically download when you click the link).The astro-energies this week are EXTREME. Today's last quarter Moon in Sagittarius opposes Mars and squares Neptune, stirring up potential confusion, distraction, overwhelm and exhaustion.The higher potential? We're being called to release what's distracting us, what's sucking our vital life force, what's no longer in alignment with our deeper soul selves - and to listen to and honor our intuitive knowing, our longings, our dreams for a more beautiful future.Tomorrow Mars will (at last!) emerge from its retrograde shadow, ending its 6-month retro cycle (can I get an amen??). Next week's Spring Equinox and Aries new moon will be major catalysts for acting on the insights and wisdom we've gained over the past six months, and launching powerful new life directions.If you missed my webinar all about Mars retrograde - where I go into how you can work effectively with Mars-Neptune, and much more - you can find the replay here.I also want to offer some writing prompts for journaling and reflection, to help you deepen into and uncover the gifts of this time. These prompts are from a Mars retro writing retreat I led with my brilliant writer friend Jen Violi last December. (FYI, Jen and I are offering another mini-retreat combining astro, writing & ritual on April 1st - Fire Words.)* How are grief, sorrow, and surrender part of this Mars Retro journey for you? What gifts might be washing ashore for you from the ocean of sorrow? What might you need to release into the outgoing tide?* Write a love letter to yourself from Mars or Neptune. Let yourself write in the voice of one of these wise planet ancestors. What do they want you to know? You might start with “Dear ____, I have something to tell you…”* In what ways are you already tending your inner fire/ feeding your desires? What might you add to your repertoire?* Where or what or who is the source of your life force? What are 3 -5 possible practices you might explore to reconnect with source in the coming week?I also want to let you know that the new incarnation of Emily's Astro-Verse is about to start! I consider this group to be my “inner circle” of astro-friends.When you sign up for the 6-month Astro-Verse, you'll receive:* All of my new and full moon recordings (12 total)* An exclusive monthly group livestream on Zoom, where you can ask your astro-questions and share how the wild energies are showing up in your world* A discounted rate on personal readings* And the opportunity to share your offerings with our amazing communityWe'll start with the Aries new moon, which I'm planning to send out this week! Everyone is welcome, and the group is offered on a sliding scale. Join the Astro-VerseAnd finally, save the date for a special, FREE event next Monday: The Soul of the Equinox - A Visual & Astrological Exploration of the New Season. I'm teaming up with my friend Rita Roberts, an intuitive artist who will channel the Equinox energies and do a live drawing while I discuss what I see in the Equinox chart. We'll meet at 2pm Pacific/5pm Eastern for about an hour on March 20th No need to sign up - I'll send out the Zoom info before we meet.

Brook LeVan is the co-founder and executive director of Sustainable Settings, an entrepreneurial non-profit organization that inspires people and communities to embrace integrated solutions for sustainable development. Sustainable Settings owns and operates a 244-acre working ranch and Whole Systems Learning Center in Carbondale, Colorado.Brook has an impressive and varied background as an artist, Fulbright Scholar, university faculty member and world traveler. He's a certified Permaculture designer and has consulted, practiced and taught sustainable design, green building, renewable energy, sustainable agriculture, wetland creation and art and design. I first met Brook last summer, when I was taking a permaculture design course held at Sustainable Settings. While I loved the permaculture training and learned a ton of useful information, my mind really exploded when Brook gave us an introduction to biodynamic agriculture, first introduced by Rudolf Steiner in the 1920s. I was so inspired and intrigued by this approach of working with cosmic and spiritual forces to heal and regenerate the land that I returned to Sustainable Settings for a biodynamic preparation-making workshop in September.While Brook considers himself to be a “master of nothing,” I think of him as a master alchemist, regenerative wizard and pioneer. We had a fascinating and wide-ranging conversation, covering:* Brook's transition from artist in the art world to artist of the land;* Art as a mechanism for social change and personal evolution, and art and life as one;* Unsubscribing from the Western paradigm and opening to an indigenous worldview;* Using the physical to ask the metaphysical questions – and the ritual potential in all activities;* Moving beyond the “compaction between our ears” and opening to the recognition that everything is alive and speaking to us;* The ancient and new frontier of “vertical” agriculture – taking into account cosmic forces;* How to reestablish holy order and intimacy as stewards of the earth;* The importance of nutrient density on the spiritual and etheric levels;* And much more!Find out more about Brook's work and biodynamic agriculture:Sustainable SettingsBuild Soil or DieBiodynamic SourceBiodynamic BotanicalsEnzo Nastati's YouTube channel, and his teaching on The 13 Holy Nights (in Italian but translated into English)Find out about Emily's astrology readings and online classes: EmbodiedAquarian.com This is a public episode.

In this fascinating deep dive into WTF is wrong with the world and what we can do about it, we get into:* Cate's experience with astral attacks and vampiric energy – and how she cleared out these influences;* How we've been “epigenetically twisted” into believing in the inherent sinfulness of humans;* Cate's “holy s**t moment” of recognizing that the anti-life force is not us and is not our natural state;* What waking up really looks like – not the new age fantasy of “walking around in a daze of rainbow light;”* Why self-improvement is an endless treadmill, never taking us where we want to go;* Ancient aliens, the transhumanist agenda, and the conditioned docility of humanity;* Three essential keys to freeing yourself from this crazy mind matrix, and why a brighter future is inevitable;* And much more!Find out more about Cate and sign up for her newsletter at CateMontana.comOr find her on FacebookShe can be reached at info@catemontana.comCheck out our first podcast conversation - Standing In the Beauty of Your Authentic HumannessFind out about Emily's astrology readings and classes: EmbodiedAquarian.com This is a public episode.

Poet, witch, and joyful earthling Elizabeth Russell has apprenticed herself to the voice of nature for most of her life. Her work inspires us to reconnect with the intelligence of the living Earth by awakening our birthright powers of deep imagination. With the Dreamfruit series, she has created more than a planner, journal, or astrological calendar, but an enchanted world that brings the Great Turning to life – in our imagination and daily lives. The world of Dreamfruit shimmers with hopepunk sensibilities and an emerging vision for a regenerative future. Elizabeth lives in Oregon, where she feeds the birds, guides moon-magic circles, and leads visionary experiments to inspire radical engagement with the living cosmos. I was so excited to get to talk with my Virgo soul sister and longtime friend, and felt deeply moved and inspired by Elizabeth's brilliance and vision. We talk about:* Elizabeth's transition from “break-your-heart, break-your-life” activism to an adventure in deep belonging;* The importance of slowing down and listening – so we can notice the intelligence already in play;* The three key pathways for consciously connecting with the living earth and returning to our natural state of radical belonging;* The co-creative opportunity of animism and moving beyond “our tiny modern human mutated mind;”* How linear clock time restricts the life force – and the deliciousness of aligning with natural time;* The generative power of the human imagination and “deep imagination” as an organ connecting us to the living earth;* The story of 2023 – finding our way to a regenerative future – as told through a series of Sabian Symbols;* And much more!Find out more about Elizabeth's offerings, and get a copy of Dreamfruit 2023: Dreamfruit.worldFind out about Emily's astrology readings and classes: EmbodiedAquarian.com This is a public episode.

Since then she has since studied with many gifted healers, shamans, and spiritual leaders, and eventually created her own unique brand of energy work, The Flow of Grace.

Katie works with clients one-on-one and in group sessions, and she is also a professional artist, bringing her higher vision and healing intent into gorgeous abstracted landscape paintings.We talked about:* Katie's shift from an intended career as a naturopath when she realized she was a witch and needed to do her magic;* Feeling safety in the body as a necessary prerequisite for healing;* Simple practices you can do right now to soothe your nervous system and increase your sense of safety;* Why consciousness and attention are the “superpowers of healing;”* What happened when Katie stopped doing and started questioning all her impulses;* The terror of “being nobody going nowhere” – and the love that fills the void;* Navigating the world as a super-sensitive human and the paradox of finding strength through softening and opening;* And more!Find out more about Katie's work: KatieTodd.netWinter Solstice Community Energy Session on December 20, 2022Small Group Energy Sessions Find out about Emily's astrology classes and readings: EmbodiedAquarian.com This is a public episode.

Melanie Reinhart has been a professional astrologer since 1975 and is best known for her book Chiron and the Healing Journey (which I think of as my Chiron bible). She has served the astro-community through her pioneering work on not only Chiron but also other Centaurs: Chariklo, Nessus and Pholus. She is a prize-winning diploma holder from the Faculty of Astrological Studies in the UK, and she is also a patron of the school. She was awarded the prestigious Charles Harvey Award in 2004, given by the Astrological Association of Great Britain for “exceptional service to astrology.” Melanie's work is an unusual combination of intuition and meticulous research.It was an absolute delight and honor to get to speak with Melanie – and mostly to listen, as she illuminated this time we're in now from her unique and brilliant astro-perspective. We explored: * The significance of the Centaurs (aka “the Weirdos”) as we transition into the Aquarian Age;* A radical (and my new favorite) answer to the question of when exactly we enter the Age of Aquarius;* Pluto's astronomical demotion to “dwarf planet” and the affinity between the Lord of the Underworld and the Centaurs;* Jupiter's esoteric rulership of Aquarius, and Chiron's connection with all three rulers of Aquarius;* The collective metabolizing of Pisces-Age distortions, along with generosity, compassion and healing;* Chiron and animal communication, and the importance of communicating with our own animal selves;* And so much more!Find out more about Melanie's work and sign up for her newsletter at MelanieReinhart.comDownload the Centaur ephemeris material The Chiron in Aries article Melanie referenced in the interviewMelanie will be teaching classes on Pholus and Nessus at Astrology University early next yearFind out about Emily's astrology readings and classes: EmbodiedAquarian.com This is a public episode.

A proud product of public education, John Coleman received his undergraduate degree in history from Western Connecticut State University. Alas, that was to be the end of his flattering academic titles. Unwilling to once again become a debt slave to usurers, his graduate studies were scotched at the half-way point. John wasted over a decade of his professional life attempting to establish a high school for people who took neither themselves nor their worldview seriously. Burned by these unseemly experiences, on Holy Saturday of 2013 Apocatastasis Institute was founded. The Institute primarily exists to protect the humanities in se and to provide a haven for academics in a disintegrating professional field. The author of Hurt: Some Thoughts On Disillusion, Distrust, and Disorientation These Last Few Years (2015) and The Trotsky Train: Some Words To The Discupulate (2018), John daily continues his work of restoring formal classroom learning in light of the proper personal, social, and political ends of a school.I mainly know John as my most excellent Latin teacher - I'm a grateful student of Apocatastasis this fall semester. I had a lot of fun taking a break from third-declension nouns and Roman naming conventions, and instead talking with John about the bigger picture of education and society. In our 90-minute-ish conversation, we got into:* The disintegration of the humanities and academia's devolution from “powerhouse of ideas” to “job boost;”* The roots of Rockefeller education and how the past few years serve as proof of its success;* Education as the only remaining shared collective ritual;* How schools are suppressing students' agency and producing “kiddults” with no sense of initiative;* The importance of discipline and vision in creating alternatives that exceed the quality of the current educational system;* And much more!Find out about John's work:www.ApocatastasisInstitute.wordpress.comwww.Gab.com/ApocatastasisInstituteRumble channelBitchute channelYouTube channelContact John: apocatastasisinstitute@aol.comFind out about Emily's astrology classes and readings: EmbodiedAquarian.com This is a public episode.

collage by EmilyAnd now for something different…While the Embodied Aquarian Age podcast generally focuses on interviews looking at the bigger picture of where we're at and WTF to do about it, today I'm interrupting the regularly scheduled program. I want to share a little insight into the new season – launched by Thursday's Equinox – and the new lunar cycle that starts with Sunday's Libra New Moon. The audio is a 20-minute excerpt from my 53-minute new moon recording. The occasion? I'm launching a new 6-month program – Emily's Astro-Verse: An Immersion in Cosmic Co-Creation. (If you're signed up for my non-Substack newsletter, you've already heard the news!)For every new and full moon, I create a 45-minute-ish recording, which includes in-depth astro-navigational guidance for the current planetary influences. I do not tell you “what's going to happen” – because – who knows? I believe the future is fluid and how the energies play out depends on us – our level of awareness, presence, courage and willingness to show up and engage in LIFE.Instead, my focus is on how YOU can best work with the available planetary energies for growth, healing and success. I highlight both the higher and shadow/distorted potentials of planetary alignments, always aiming to make the information accessible and practical. I make these bi-weekly moon transmissions available individually, offered “in the gift” (i.e., by donation – pay what you want). Members of the Astro-Verse automagically receive ALL my new and full moon recordings, and are also invited to join me in a monthly livestream on Zoom, where they can ask their astro-questions, connect with our amazing community, and share how the cosmic forces are showing up in their own lives.Added perks to participating in the Astro-Verse include a discounted rate on personal astrology readings, and the opportunity for members to share their offerings (services, classes, products…) with the group.Everyone is welcome to join, regardless of your level of astro-know-how (yes, including beginners!). Check out the audio, and if it resonates, consider jumping into Emily's Astro-Verse. (You'll immediately receive the entire Libra New Moon recording.) The sliding-scale rate starts at $144. I consider this group my “inner circle” of astro-friends, and feel so much gratitude for the support and community during these wild times.with love, Emily This is a public episode.

Renee Linnell is a serial entrepreneur who has founded or co-founded five companies and has an MBA from New York University; before that she was a surf model and professional Argentine Tango dancer. Having an unorthodox childhood and being surrounded by death at a young age led her on a spiritual quest that took her all over the world, culminating in her ordination as a Buddhist monk (by a bi-polar guru with delusions of grandeur so she's not 100% sure the ordination counts.) What began as writing for catharsis in 2013—as she struggled to regain her sanity after being brainwashed in a Buddhist cult—turned into her first memoir, The Burn Zone (2018).
