The mind becomes more intuitive, more symbolic, and more sensitive to emotional and energetic undercurrents. As Mercury retrograde meets Venus in Pisces, themes around love, boundaries, forgiveness, and self-worth are revisited.Between eclipses, much of what is unfolding carries a karmic quality. This episode offers guidance on navigating uncertainty, releasing attachment to familiar mental scripts, and allowing intuitive truth to emerge without force.In this episode:Mercury retrograde in PiscesThe shift from logic to intuitionEmotional and relational recalibrationMercury conjunct Venus themesNavigating the eclipse corridorReleasing attachment to certaintyTHANK YOU for being here.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pound Jewelry⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ use the code ALI20 for 20% off⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Kamana Coffee Replacement ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠use the code ALIO15 for 15% off⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Earth Archive's Rainforest Serum⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - use the code ALIOFSTEDAL for 11% offThank for you being here.Your presence means the world.

Mercury retrograde begins this week, and we're building toward a powerful lunar eclipse. If you're an empath or highly sensitive person, you may already feel the emotional pressure building.This weekly astrology forecast is designed specifically for empaths and spiritually curious souls who want to understand the week's energy without feeling overwhelmed by technical details.We explore:• The First Quarter Moon tension• Mercury Retrograde in Pisces (what it really means for you)• Emotional spikes around Mars square Uranus• How to protect your energy each day• The Moon signs guiding us from Taurus to Leo---------------------------------------------Take this work deeper, check out the Moon Club and Moon Journal:

dust returns to dust earth to earth mind always at home in itself where does it return?This past week I was reflecting on the 6th Chan Ancestor, Huineng and his encounter with a verse from the diamond sutra.Huineng lost his father early in life, and supported himself and his mother by selling firewood. On one occasion, he was selling firewood to a customer, and someone passed by chanting the words of the diamond sutra.Huineng heard a single line and was profoundly moved—it touched something in him and his heart was opened.He managed to stop the person who was chanting to inquire as to what the origin of the verse was and found out that it was from the diamond sutra, and a teacher in a distant part of the country was encouraging their students to chant this sutra.For Huineng, this was a “call to adventure moment.” He knew he needed to meet this teacher, which meant leaving his current life. For Huineng, this worked out. He was able to find someone to care for his mom, and he set out on a difficult journey to meet this unknown teacher.I feel like this story is relatable. Has something like this ever happened to you? Have you ever heard a phrase from a song, poem, a prayer or a teaching and it touched you profoundly? It stoped you. Perhaps caused you to find out the source of the words, or left you on a quest to discover who wrote it? what book was it from? These moments can take us on an adventure of discovery. But also, more importantly—the words themselves touched something that is beyond words. They often wake us up to the immediacy, the intimacy of this life.Sometimes this happens with words from a chant or prayer we recite regularly, or have heard often. One day, they feel imbued with a new kind of meaning.This past Wednesday was Ash Wednesday, and the words: remember you are dust, and to dust you shall return—have been with me. I remember the first time the profundity of that simple phrase really got in—I was an adult and my grandfather had just passed away.I got interested this year in the practice of lent, and read the lenten gospel from Matthew, where Jesus is speaking about prayer. He is reminding his disciples that prayer isn't about being seen doing something great, or making some big sacrifice—but perhaps the most genuine prayer is secret, a private affair between one's self and the great mystery.We live in a time in the world where we share intimate details of our lives on social media platforms. There isn't anything inherently wrong about this, but I got interested in the invitation towards a secret life of prayer or meditation. I think we long for an intimacy with ourselves and the universe—the great mystery, that can't be displayed or need not be. That gets to be hidden, secret, kept close.I had a dream recently on this theme. In the dream I was given a bright green folder and told to always keep it close. When I explored what was in the folder there was a roll of masking tape, a book I wrote in kindergarten about a tree named Fred, and vast emptiness.I was left opened to the unnameable absence—roaring silence, pure potentiality.In this task of being human, in this life's work of discovering our true nature—words, stories, images, dreams and symbols can serve as pointers, but we all will encounter the mystery of this life for ourselves.Dharma practice invites nearness. What are you keeping close? What practices allow you to stay with your inner-most heart? To stay with your self moment-to-moment? To stay close to the vows you wish to live by?This on-going commitment to awakening is something that for most of us operates in secret, its that inner orientation, remembering ourselves back to ourselves, recognizing what is nearest.I got curious about what Huineng actually heard and so did some research to find the passage from the Diamond Sutra. Below is Steven Mitchell's translation for the last paragraph of Chapter 10 of the Diamond Sutra.Here is what is essential: All Bodhisattvas should develop a pure, lucid mind that doesn't depend upon sight, sound, taste, touch, smell or any thought that arises in it. A bodhisattva should develop a mind that abides nowhere.Another way this is translated is a bodhisattva should develop mind at home with itself. What is this heart-mind that doesn't depend on thoughts or the senses, that abides nowhere, everywhere, all at once. Always at home.Andrew Holecek in his book Preparing to Die, says that this practice of recognizing the mind that abides nowhere, is the best practice to do to prepare for death—for when the body returns to the earth, the senses cease—the mind of awakening continues—at home in itself.The audio portion of this post is mainly a dharma talk on the Diamond Sutra. I reference both Steven Mitchell's translation and Red Pine's translation. You can find Red Pine's translation here.I'm excited to be co-creating space this Spring and Summer for in-person sesshin/meditation retreats. As well as online immersions with Pause Meditation.

The headlines feel relentless right now—political upheaval, cultural polarization, global uncertainty. What if we zoomed out and asked, What do the stars say about America in this moment?In this episode, I sit down with astrologer and former NASA research scientist Jill Brown to explore whether there's a larger pattern unfolding, and what astrology might offer as a framework for understanding this moment.We talk about America's "Pluto Return," free will, civic engagement, polarization, discipline, and how to stay grounded in chaotic times.We also cover:What a “Pluto Return” actually means for the U.S.Why 2026 could feel like a cultural turning pointThe difference between rebellion and reformHow technology fuels polarizationWhy local civic engagement may matter more than national outrageWhat your birth chart (beyond your sun sign) can reveal about youHow “Chiron” represents wounds that can become wisdomThe intersection of science, spirituality, and personal agency

To move into a higher frequency, we have to acknowledge what's being offloaded and be willing to participate in a state of flux.

This week's Solar Eclipse in Aquarius and Saturn conjunct Neptune at 0° Aries marks the beginning of a powerful new cycle. If you're an empath feeling the shift - this energy update is for you.We're standing at a rare convergence:✨ Solar Eclipse at 28° Aquarius✨ Saturn conjunct Neptune at 0° Aries (a 35–38 year cycle reset)✨ Mercury retrograde shadow in Pisces✨ Lunar New Year + Year of the Fire Horse 2026This is not just another astrology week.This is a threshold moment - personally and collectively.In this Energy Weather Report, I break down:

A lotus blooming in the fire is an image that comes from the Zen tradition. And before I write further on the symbolism of the image or the dharma teachings it evokes—I would like to invite us to just sit with the image of a lotus blooming in the fire.For a moment, let yourself sense, imagine or feel into this image. Notice what you see, feel, hear, experience as you attempt to connect with the image of a lotus blooming in the fire. Now, if you haven't already bring the image closer in. Sit as, be a lotus blooming in the fire.And stay with it for some time allowing associations, feelings, meanings, sensations to come and go. Returning simply to being a lotus in the fire.When you are ready, you can let the image dissolve.I am curious to hear what you noticed, what happened as you sat with or as a lotus blooming in the fire?The Power of Embodied ImaginationTo meditate with an image like this, is one form that koan practice can take in the Zen tradition. You sit with an image, becoming the image and learning about it through your direct experience. Notice how an image can contain seeming paradoxes. How can a lotus bloom in fire? Wouldn't it burn? And yet, here it is.On Wednesday, in Columbus we did this practice with my local sangha Mud Lotus. We sat as lotuses blooming in the fire. People noticed different things about this dynamic of fire and blooming. Someone pointed out that a lotus isn't trying to stop the fire, yet it is blooming there. Another said that it seemed like the lotus bloomed because of the fire. Others saw the lotus as a reminder of their own nature that isn't burned in the fires of life.This image was popularized by the great Chan teacher of 11th Century China, Yuan-Wu. He used it to refer to the practice of what he called, Householder Bodhisattvas. Those of us whose practice-awakening happens in the fires of this world, in the challenges of our relationships, in our own inner conflicts or difficulties.How to be a householder bodhisattva, it requires a stand that is solid and true and faith that is thoroughgoing…When bodhisattvas who live a householder's life cultivate the practices of deep meditation and insight, it is like a lotus blooming in the fire. It will always be hard to tame the will for fame and rank and power and position, not to mention all the myriad starting points of vexation and turmoil associated with the burning house of worldly existence. The only way is for you yourself to realize your fundamental, real wondrous wholeness and reach the stage of great calm, stability and rest. —Yuan-wuThich Nhat Hanh also used this image in his first book published in English, Vietnam: A Lotus in the Sea of Fire: A Buddhist Proposal for Peace. What are the Fires in your Life?Fire in the Buddhist tradition can be a symbol of suffering in all its manifestations. From the collective forms of suffering that appear as war, violence, injustice, conflict, misuse of power to the more personal forms of suffering that appear as anxiety, worry, terror, fear, shame, physical discomfort, pain.Fire can also be a symbol of the instability of all experience, the changing nature of everyone and everything—in Buddhism we call this impermanence.Suffering and impermanence are two of the marks of existence. A teaching the buddha gave about the nature of experience—basically reminding us that suffering and change are part of life. In the Buddhist teachings, liberation or freedom from suffering is not the absence of pain, violence, fear, change, anxiety, etc. —but is found in the midst of these fires, or whatever fires we find ourselves in.A Lotus Blooms in a Sea of FireWhich brings us to the image of the lotus.The lotus is a symbol of wholeness, it is an image of our true nature—which is always present, reliable, unbreakable yet soft—the blossoming of wisdom and compassion.To realize our buddha nature does not make the fires of our lives go away, it doesn't mean that the fires in the world stop burning.Awakening is being the lotus blooming in the fire.Its having this refuge of love unconditioned, of spacious awareness, unbreakable kindness in every situation—even as our heart's break, even as we feel at times like we are falling apart.The lotus of our true nature blooms— even here, even now.Even without our noticing the lotus blooms. Part of what dharma practice is all about is training to recognize the lotus of our true nature, which at times may mean finding ways to nurture and care for our practice in the midst of these world fires.Practicing with others whether it is in-person or online is a way to strengthen this refuge, to recognize for ourselves the lotus that doesn't burn-up in the fires of stress, overwhelm, fear and all the other forms suffering can take in our lives and in this world.Listen to the dharma talk for a more in-depth discussion of the Lotus in the Fire, and Yuan-wu's teaching on How to be a Householder Bodhisattva.I'm excited to be co-creating space this Spring and Summer for in-person sesshin/meditation retreats.

What if the stars were more than just distant specks of light? What if they whispered the stories of our souls, mapping out the twists and turns of our journey before we even took our first breath? On today's episode, we welcome Vish Chatterji, a Vedic Astrologer, engineer, and executive coach, who takes us beyond the cocktail party banter of sun signs and horoscopes into the ancient and deeply spiritual science of Jyotish.Unlike Western astrology, which often focuses on personality and psychology, Vedic Astrology—or Jyotish—serves as a cosmic blueprint for the soul. It is not merely a tool to predict our future, but a guide to understanding the karmic imprints we bring into this life.As Vish Chatterji explains, “The Vedic astrology chart is basically a map of karmas that you will face in this lifetime based on whatever you've done in previous lifetimes.” In other words, our cosmic fingerprint reveals where we have been and how we can align with our highest potential.But let's take a step back. How did a man trained in the rigor of engineering and corporate leadership end up delving into the mystical world of planetary influence? As Vish tells it, skepticism was his first reaction. He approached astrology as any good engineer would: by testing it. Over time, as he mapped planetary influences to real-life events with startling accuracy, he realized that this ancient science had something modern logic could not easily explain. It wasn't about superstition—it was about patterns, energy, and the unseen currents that shape our lives.Through the lens of Vedic Astrology, everything is a dance of cosmic forces. Planets are not just celestial bodies; they are energetic archetypes shaping our experiences. Mars, with its fiery aggression, influences our drive and conflicts. Venus, the planet of love and beauty, governs relationships and harmony.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.Take your spiritual journey to the next level with Next Level Soul TV — our dedicated streaming home for conscious storytelling and soulful transformation.Experience exclusive programs, original series, movies, tv shows, workshops, audiobooks, meditations, and a growing library of inspiring content created to elevate, heal, and awaken.

What's the difference between a collective timekeeper and a personal astrologer? Why is "being interested in astrology" not the same as being an astrologer? And why does mixing the two create muddy, affirmational bullshit that serves no one?This is the boundary-setting episode. It's short, direct, and unapologetic about what this work is and what it isn't. There are three distinct things happening here: (1) precision intuitive astrology for business owners and entrepreneurs (private, paid, individual charts), (2) collective timekeeping and futurism (public, mundane astrology, the wake-up call), and (3) teaching (universal principles anyone can learn).

Original airdate: January 23rd, 2026 on AstrologyNow Podcast.In this episode of Timeless Spirituality, Daniel joins astrologer Christine Rodriguez, host of the Astrology Now podcast, for a conversation about astrology, past life regression, karma, and how different systems of meaning can coexist without canceling one another out.Rather than debating which framework is “right,” the discussion explores how tools like Western astrology, Vedic astrology, and past life regression can function as maps rather than verdicts, offering insight without stripping people of agency. Daniel shares how astrology became a practical guide in his regression work, not as a set of fixed truths, but as a way to ask better questions and understand recurring patterns without reducing a person to their chart.Christine's links:website: innerknowing.yogainstagram: astrologynow_podcastpatreon: patreon.com/astrologynowpodcast

In this first interview of 2026, renowned astrologer Steve Judd joins Emilio Ortiz on the Just Tap In Podcast to delivers a grounded yet far-reaching breakdown of why this year marks a true point of no return for humanity. Together, we explore the rare and irreversible astrological shifts unfolding throughout 2026, including the long-term implications of Pluto's movement through Aquarius, the changing role of Saturn, and how collective structures, authority, technology, and social systems are being fundamentally reshaped. Steve explains why these planetary patterns signal the end of an old era—and why attempting to “go back” to previous ways of living, governing, or thinking is no longer possible.✦ Learn more about The Deep Dive Membership | https://iamemilioortiz.com/the-deep-d...This conversation goes beyond predictions, offering deep context on historical cycles, evolutionary thresholds, and humanity's initiation into a new phase of consciousness. We discuss how past astrological eras have coincided with major civilizational turning points, what makes 2026 uniquely different from previous transitions, and how individuals can align with these energies rather than resist them. Topics include collective awakening, decentralization, personal responsibility, the breakdown of outdated systems, and what it truly means to step forward with awareness as the future accelerates.

In this conversation, Britten welcomes back Teagan West to explore the lore of The Magician's Table and answer a question listeners often ask: what is a 13th Reader? Britten shares how the container emerged through her journaling practice, why it's structured as 12 Magicians plus a 13th Reader, and what makes it a living, intelligent space that works quickly and deeply. Together, they reflect on the edge of being both leader and peer, the way each cohort carries its own distinct medicine, and why the work is less about managing outcomes and more about trusting the intelligence of the container itself.   Topics They Cover: The origin of The Magician's Table and why resonance (not experience) is the true threshold What it means to be a 13th Reader: holding the space while also fully participating Teagan's spiral path of resistance, invitation, and stepping into leadership Each cohort's unique medicine and the living intelligence of the container Tracking the perimeter: fox and skunk as metaphors for devotion, boundaries, and polarity The real work beneath the surface: Saturn, showing up, and consenting to deep internal alchemy   About Teagan West: Teagan West (she/they) is a Ritualist, Astrologer, Drum Maker & Ancestral Healing Practitioner from Ho:di:no:saunee Land, home of the Seneca Nation. The core of her work focuses on restoring Animist Lifeways as a form of Cultural Repair, re-membering our ancestral cosmologies as guideposts for the future. Teagan's Ancestors come from Ireland, Syria, Egypt + Eastern Anishinaabe Territory, whose legacy is at the center of her work + ritual praxis. She weaves together threads of Astrological Storytelling, Land Reconnection, Ancestral Tending and Community Ritual as a unique tapestry of culture work + animist remembrance. In her free time, you can find her making ritual tools such as Drums + Rattles, or communing with the Land and Ancestors through Song + Dance. Teagan is humbled to be back at the Magician's Table in the role of Staffholder, with the high honor of supporting 13th Readers and fellow Magicians through this year's cycle. This container had a huge impact on Teagan's life + practice, so it is an immense gift to be able to support others in experiencing the alchemy that this space has to offer. She will be present throughout the year to uplift Magicians + 13th Readers as they deepen into their gifts + soften into their growth edges.

Ep #346 - Igniting The New - An Interview with Astrologer, Kate Rose I am thrilled to once again welcome Kate Rose—author and astrologer—back to Empowering Chats. In our first interview of 2026, Kate and I explore the astrology shaping the first part of the year. At the time of this conversation, we were anticipating the Year of the Fire Horse, an energy represented by strong fire influence and inner authority—very much aligned with Aries energy and the call to trust our own inner knowing. Together, we explore the question: How can we be of benefit to ourselves and to those around us? Do we follow the masses, or do we stand firmly in what is right and true according to Universal standards? A key theme throughout this conversation is learning how to truly trust yourself. Kate also dives into the February astrology and what we can expect. A solar eclipse on February 17th coincides with the start of a Solar New Year and the beginning of the Year of the Fire Horse. Solar eclipses represent outer energy, and collectively this energy will follow us through most of this year. While intense at times, with a strong focus on external events we can expect greater unpredictability and more unexpected developments both personally and globally. The Fire Horse brings movement and impulse, making it especially important to pause before making decisions—a point Kate emphasizes as essential for the year ahead. Neptune's shift from Pisces into Aries also signals powerful new beginnings. As this transition unfolds, painful truths—both individually and collectively—may come to light. While some of what emerges may be difficult to face, it is through awareness that real change and new choices become possible. We also explored generational karma and the importance of honestly examining the energies we've long lived with. The Year of the Fire Horse offers a profound opportunity to heal not only personal history, but collective wounds as well. As individuals, we are reminded that while we may care deeply about humanity and the larger world, our true power lies in tending to our own lives—the bubble we live in and the ripple we create. It's not about changing another's karma, but about staying balanced within ourselves and reconnecting to the joy, love, peace, and divine essence we each carry. This year will bring movement, challenges, and moments of imbalance—but as Kate reminds us, it will also bring progress, growth, and powerful new beginnings.

In this episode of Outside of the Cinema, hosts Bill and Chris dive into the world of cult films, focusing on two intriguing titles: The Astrologer (1975) and Biohazard. They discuss the peculiarities of The Astrologer, a film that intertwines astrology with a bizarre narrative involving a scientist, a cult leader, and a convoluted plot that touches on themes of good and evil. Bill and Chris share their thoughts on the film's oddities, including its mix of astrology and science, the portrayal of its characters, and the overall execution of the story. They also reflect on their experiences with past episodes and listener feedback, setting the stage for a lively discussion about the films they cover and the cult movie genre as a whole. In this episode, Bill and Chris dive deep into the bizarre world of 1975's 'The Astrologer,' exploring its confusing narrative and the peculiar elements that make it a cult classic. They discuss the film's disjointed storytelling, the odd character arcs, and the unexpected connections to themes of astrology and cults. The conversation shifts to the film's production style, reflecting on how movies from that era often prioritized shock value over coherent plots, leading to a unique viewing experience that leaves audiences both entertained and bewildered.

In episode 519 of the podcast I'm joined by astrologer Reverend Lindsay Turner to discuss the story of the Magi, the birth of Jesus, and the astrology surrounding the Nativity story. We explore the celebration of Epiphany, also known as Three Kings Day, and analyze the Gospel of Matthew's account of the astrologers from the East who followed a star to Bethlehem. We discuss the distinction between approaching the Nativity as a historical event versus a literary narrative, and how the author of Matthew partially used the story of the Magi to legitimize Jesus as a king in the 1st century. We also look at technical astrological terms found in the Greek text, such as anatole or "at its rising," and how this relates to Hellenistic astrology. We also talk about the relationship between early Christianity and astrology, including the non-canonical Acts of Paul and Thecla, the liturgical seasons aligning with the Zodiac, and how modern Christians can reconcile their faith with astrological practice.

Jeff Hinshaw welcomes astrologer and author Lars Stars (Lars Mellis) into an intimate, at-home conversation recorded at Jeff's home in Palm Springs while Lars' visits from Los Angeles. The episode opens with a cozy, personal tone (dog underfoot, signed copies of Your Personal Horoscope 2026 freshly picked up from Barnes & Noble( and situates the discussion around reflection and nourishment. Lars shares his background as a certified professional astrologer deeply embedded in the LA astrology community, his Sagittarian-heavy chart, and the vision behind his new book: a month-by-month guide for 2026, complete with a unique totem archetype for each zodiac sign. The conversation moves into a lively rapid-fire round (Lars is the new reigning champion of Cosmic Slip N Slide, answering 13 questions in 60 seconds) and then deepens into the major astrological themes of 2026, which Lars names in our conversation as “the year of confronting reality.” Key transits include the Saturn–Neptune conjunction in Aries, Jupiter's opposition to Pluto as it enters Leo, Uranus moving into Gemini, and a strong Aquarius–Leo axis emphasizing voice, power, and collective change. Jeff and Lars outline each sign's 2026 totem—from Aquarius as the Spokesperson to Virgo as the Exorcist—framing the year as revolutionary, catalytic, and demanding honest self-reckoning. The episode closes with invitations to engage the book, reflect on personal totems, and stay connected through community, activism, and shared astrology as the new year unfolds.   Cosmic Cousins Links Newsletter 6-Month Online Fools Tarot Journey Mentorship Deep Dive Astrology Readings Tarot Soul Journey  Cosmic Cousins Substack & Memberships Intro & Outro Music by:  Felix III

There was once a man who called himself an Astrologer. He spent all his time studying the night sky because he believed the stars could tell him exactly what would happen in the future.One night, he was walking along a dark road outside his village. He was so busy looking up at the stars—trying to figure out when the world might end—that he didn't look where he was going.The Accident: Suddenly, he stepped right into a big, deep hole filled with mud and water!The Struggle: He was stuck up to his ears in the cold mud. He tried to climb out, but the sides were too slippery. He began to shout and cry for help.The Lesson: The villagers heard his cries and ran to help him. As they pulled him out of the muddy mess, one neighbor said:"You spend all your time trying to read the future in the stars, but you can't even see what is right at your feet!"The Moral of the StoryThe lesson of this fable is: Take care of the little things, and the big things will take care of themselves.Key LessonsBe Mindful: It is important to pay attention to what is happening right now, not just what might happen later.Stay Grounded: While it is okay to have big dreams (like looking at the stars), you still have to watch where you are walking.Practicality: Don't ignore the real world because you are too busy thinking about imaginary things or the distant future.Support the show

For those of us who have chosen to walk a spiritual path, we've been called a great number of things. Particularly, crazy. So it can be important to have a translator of sorts to explain to the logically minded skeptics that it's possible to be spiritual without losing your mind. You don't have to abandon your logic to learn how to be spiritual. And you don't have to squeeze yourself into someone else's rituals, beliefs, or vibes to become a spiritual person. My guest this week, Laura Kusto, has done us all a favor and become that bridge to explain that there's another path — one built for strategic minds, skeptical hearts, and people who crave meaning that actually makes sense. Where spirituality isn't performance. It's pattern. It's timing.On this guest episode I have the pleasure of hearing Laura's story and conversation about al the great and rational gifts of astrology, moon phases, and how each supports productivity or planning. Laura explains how spirituality is actually the truth that rises when you finally stop outsourcing your intuition and start aligning with your natural rhythm. She shows us how to become spiritual in a way that feels grounded, intelligent, and completely yours — so your inner world can feel as clear and powerful as the life you've built on the outside. She walks us though the moon phases and how someone with zero astrology knowledge can start syncing their workflow to the moon today. She also shares about her creation, the Moon Map, and how it helps someone understand their natural timing and focus areas.Laura is the Moon Phase Astrologer for Strategic Minds—helping high-achieving entrepreneurs and executives claim their spiritual rhythm through grounded, repeatable frameworks rooted in lunar cycles. A sought-after speaker and featured Authority Magazine author, she helps analytical minds disenchanted by surface-level, “good vibes only” spirituality reconnect with something deeper. Her mission is to show driven, discerning thinkers that their intellect isn't a spiritual barrier—it's the bridge to alignment, clarity, and belonging. 25-year global corporate strategist and speaker (consulting VP & practice line lead). Sought-after expert featured in Skift, Crush the Rush and Company DimeSpeaker at 10+ international conferences (GBTA, ACTE Amsterdam, ProcureCon & more)Built a visibility platform with thought leadership across both corporate + spiritual spaces Midwest-born, moon-obsessed, and always tracking patterns (on earth and in the stars) Addicted to systems, cozy playlists, & decoding big truths through tiny details.

The Magi weren't reading Daniel. They weren't studying the prophets. They were reading the sky.In our Members-Only Part 2 of our Christmas deep dive into the Star of Bethlehem, Caleb Jones returns to answer the question everyone's been asking: Why did the Magi know to come? What did they actually see in that chart that made them pack up and travel for months?Using ancient sources—Ptolemy, Manilius, Vettius Valens—Caleb reconstructs what an astrological reading of August 12, 3 BC would have looked like. The verdict? A heaven-blessed birth in Palestine. Incredible fortune. Warfare and a sword in his future. Someone who would overcome great danger through Jupiter and Venus.But this episode goes deeper than astronomy. Caleb traces how the Bible itself addresses astrology—not as fake, but as a rival way of knowing that God told Israel not to pursue because He would speak to them directly. When Israel rebelled and looked to the stars anyway, God wove their disobedience into His plan: He would use pagan astrologers to announce His Son and shame His people who should have known better.From Deuteronomy to Isaiah to Romans, the threads converge. The Magi weren't reading Daniel. They were reading the sky. And God met them there.The Christmas story is stranger than you thought. Not a member yet?

We're joined by astrologer Aliza Kelly for a very special episode and a full-on astrological investigation into one of America's most chilling legends: the Bell Witch.  We revisit this infamous 1800s haunting, where the Bell family faced spectral scratching, whispered voices, bedcovers ripped away, and even a dog-bodied, rabbit-headed creature. The witch boldly quoted sermons, sang hymns, and—according to historical accounts—was responsible for the only documented case of a spirit killing someone. With Aliza's cosmic lens, we unravel astrological patterns that may explain the timing of the hauntings, the entity's vengeance, and the strange synchronicities woven through the Bell family's torment.
