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.

Spirit Talk — 2026 Energy Update Happy New Year, Spirit Talkers ✨ In this episode, Brandee dives into the energetic landscape of 2026, a year of initiation, movement, and embodied power. While January may feel slow, tender, and inward, this pause is intentional. It's the calm before a much faster, more activating cycle begins. This episode explores how to honor this moment of rest while preparing for a year that asks us to step forward with clarity, courage, and self-trust. ✨ In This Episode, We Explore: • The energy of January & early 2026 Why hibernation, rest, and nervous system recovery are not only normal (but essential) before the pace accelerates later this year. • Is January 1st really the “New Year”? A grounded conversation about honoring ancient cycles (spring, lunar new year) while also acknowledging the energetic reality of the Gregorian calendar and numerology. • Universal Year 1 in Numerology The beginning of a brand-new 9-year cycle: Initiation, identity, and leadership Choosing aligned action over hesitation Trusting yourself before certainty arrives • Lunar New Year & the Fire Horse An introduction to the Fire Horse year in Chinese astrology: Freedom, momentum, and truth-telling Breaking out of old roles and limitations The importance of aligned courage vs. impulsivity • Psychic & energetic themes of 2026 Why many sensitives may feel: Energetic “tugging” or attachments from others Heightened intuition and psychic awareness • Chaos, reorganization & global shifts How 2026 marks the beginning of deeper systemic change, personally and collectively, especially around leadership, power, and outdated structures. • The rise of intuitive & healing arts Why this year supports: Psychic development Teaching or learning spiritual skills Embodied spirituality becoming mainstream • Color, scent & sound for 2026 Channeled energetic tools to support the year: Color: Red (with orange & yellow) Scent profile: Cinnamon, clove, sweet orange, blood orange, lemon zest, neroli Tone: Low–mid octave F (with F–A–C harmony) Suggested practices include humming, sound bowls, and music in F major. • Tarot archetype for 2026

Astrology and Tarot from two grounded Earth signs! We're here to show you the energies so you can embrace them in your own way. The first half of 2026 shifts from 2025's stagnant waiting energy into decisive action and transformation. January through March build momentum as Neptune and Saturn move into Aries, clearing the fog and demanding that first brave step forward. February is the most pivotal month, with Saturn meeting Neptune at zero degrees Aries on the 20th, a rare cosmic reset at the origin point of the zodiac. This is preceded by a powerful solar eclipse in Aquarius on the 17th that squares Uranus, ushering in this new era! March brings a lunar eclipse in Pisces on the 3rd, clearing old patterns from the Virgo-Pisces eclipse series. The tarot journey moves from the Two of Wands (planning) through the Eight of Wands (rapid movement) to The Magician (you have everything you need), requiring emotional intelligence to stay grounded amid collective upheaval. April and May accelerate as seven planets gather in Aries, creating unprecedented energy that demands singular focus and inner trust. The Magician and Chariot cards signal there's no turning back - this is the moment to manifest quickly and discover you're not alone as parallel paths converge. While personal manifestations flourish, the collective experiences intense tension and dissolution of old systems around leadership and power. By June, the Nine of Wands acknowledges fatigue but emphasizes pacing over stopping. You're closer than you think! Jupiter's move into Leo promises that creativity, play, and human connection will carry us through, reminding us that our individual dreams create the new world we're moving toward together. Monthly Summaries: Tarot & Astrology Insights January Andrea's Tarot - Two of Wands: Preparation and planning energy - you have the spark but need to take the first step Looking out at possibilities but stuck in analysis mode Time to move from planning to action, even if it's just one small tangible step The hardest part is getting into motion - just open the door and walk outside Breaking hibernation mode and getting back to business Emily's Astrology: Venus and Mars traveling with the Sun (invisible) - actions happening behind closed doors Mercury retrograde begins, Mars opposite Jupiter (10th) - emotional decision-making Major shift: Neptune moves into Aries (26th) - fog clears, we can see the path ahead Multiple planets move into Aquarius around the 20th, meeting with Pluto Setting up the foundation for the entire year February Andrea's Tarot - King of Cups: Emotional intelligence and maturity on display Recognizing your own growth in handling emotions Witnessing others' emotional reactions with empathy but not taking responsibility Staying calm and grounded while others may be overwhelmed Processing emotions without getting stuck in loops Emily's Astrology: Uranus goes direct (3rd) - last months in Taurus after 7 years MAJOR: Saturn moves into Aries (13th), meets Neptune at 0 degrees (20th) - pivotal reset moment Solar eclipse in Aquarius (17th) squares Uranus - powerful change energy Structure meets dissolution - cardboard box in water metaphor Potential for major global shifts, especially regarding Russia and leadership changes March Andrea's Tarot - Eight of Wands: Fast-moving fire energy - momentum building Reward for taking action and getting through emotional shifts Things moving faster than expected when you trust yourself Alignment bringing abundance and opportunities Energy and attention drawn your way - right people appearing on your path Emily's Astrology: Mercury retrograde in Pisces (starts 26th of Feb) - emotional introspection Lunar eclipse in Pisces (3rd) opposite Mercury - clearing old patterns Mars moves into Pisces (2nd), Jupiter goes direct in Cancer Calmer month overall - a reprieve and deep breath Potential for misunderstandings but Jupiter provides emotional support April Andrea's Tarot - The Magician: You have everything you need to create magic Major turning point - no going back now Personal responsibility to keep momentum going Trust in your qualifications and capabilities Alchemist energy - creating what you need from what you have Emily's Astrology: Mars moves into Aries (9th) - seven planets in Aries by month's end Mars conjunct Neptune (12th) - inflamed energy, potential for major events Three planets move into three signs in three days (16th-18th) Uranus moves into Gemini (25th) - confusion about AI and reality Personally manifesting quickly, but collectively very tense and overwhelming May Andrea's Tarot - The Chariot: Two major arcana in a row - unstoppable forward movement Taking two energies and directing them in the same direction Leaving old civilization behind, trusting in the new path Finding your new community and being seen Constant movement forward without burnout - listening to your body Emily's Astrology: Mercury moves into Taurus (15th), meets Venus - back to body and enjoyment Pluto retrograde (6th) - examining how you fit into the collective Mars, Venus, Mercury all change signs (16th-18th) - five best weeks of the year Mars square Pluto (25th) - potential for conflict but fighting for human rights Peak energy for hope and breathing room June Andrea's Tarot - Nine of Wands: Fiery energy continues but fatigue setting in Push through the last bit - you're so close Slow down if needed but don't stop completely Focus on the outcome to maintain spark Avoid the exhaustion of the Ten of Wands by pacing yourself Emily's Astrology: Venus and Jupiter meet in Cancer (9th) - hope and heart-centered opportunity Mars moves into Gemini (28th), catches up with Uranus quickly Mercury retrograde (29th) in Cancer - another watery introspection Jupiter moves into Leo (30th) - creativity and play become important Building toward intense July - enjoy the relative calm while it lasts Visit emilyandherstars.com for readings, workshops, and updates. ✨ Subscribe, rate, and review Things That Make You Go Woo to help others find the magic. ✨ Share this episode with a friend who'd love some Scorpio Season clarity.

For more information reach out to Hailey at moonbeamingpodcast@gmail.com --- What if this year isn't about moving faster, but about moving with intention?In this weeks episode of Moonbeaming, Sarah offers a preview of what will be explored in the Moon Studio ‘Year Ahead' workshop series beginning this Saturday, January 10th.Rather than predictions or pressure to act quickly, Sarah invites a different approach to the new year — one rooted in pacing, attention, and personal agency. She reflects on urgency culture, nervous system capacity, and the difference between insight and integration, while introducing the Magician as a guiding archetype for the year ahead and a symbol of reclaimed inner authority.You'll hear:Why urgency culture can push us into survival mode and how to recognize when it's time to recalibrateWhy pacing, rest, and integration matter more than forcing momentum at the start of the yearHow slowing down and doing less can create more clarity, capacity, and alignmentWhat it means to be in right relationship with timeHow the Magician archetype speaks to agency, self-trust, and inner authorityWhy tools and frameworks work best when they support intuition rather than replace it
In this magical start to the new year, host Kat sits down with her dear friend—psychic medium, curator, and author Sarah Potter.

The 2026 Forecast: Why 2026 is the "Year of the Magician" and what that means for your creative potential.

Last year brought many challenges for Christian fantasy fans. From flops at the theaters now threatened by streaming slop, to creators making more events for Christian storytelling, to the continued growth of biblical fiction as the top genre of Christian-made entertainment—let's survey the top ten fantasy-related headlines from last year. Episode sponsors Edmund Spenser's The Faerie Queen The Case of the Heart Stone by Tulli Cole Above the Circle of Earth by E. Stephen Burnett Mission update New at Lorehaven: many features over the holidays! We announced our new book quest in the Lorehaven Guild: Taliesin Onscreen: ‘Stranger Things' Season Five Gives Weight to Parents' Fears, A. D.

Soon: discover the Guild's new wing, the Lorehaven Authorship. 10. Superheroes failed to save ailing cinema Marvel movies, despite their strengths, all flopped at the box office. Personally I did like Fantastic Four: First Steps, but didn't love it. Lorehaven folks were generally positive about some hero movies. ‘Captain America: Brave New World' Labors to Save a Struggling MCU, Marian A. Jacobs The Antiheroes of Thunderbolts* Preach to Marvel Itself, Daniel Whyte IV ‘Superman' (2025) Will Make You Believe a Man Can Be Earnest, Josiah DeGraaf However, audiences were tepid; none of these films broke even. The greatest foe of superheroes? Flippancy. Next: lack of family. MCU reached its apex with creators who at least feigned sincerity. DC's nobledark tone was winning fans, until the studio freaked out. 9. Disney's ‘Snow White' remake bombed Sticking with cinemas, this one might be the year's greatest fail. ‘Snow White' (2025) Isn't the Fairest of Adaptations, Parker J. Cole I didn't see it. Few people did. More people saw YouTube roasts. This whole nonsense was an ugly reflection of three terrible trends ruining films: “woke” checkboxes, cynicism, and corporate gloss. 8. Fans abandoned legacy sci-fi franchises Once a Doctor Who hero, Russell T. Davies has ruined that series. Star Trek is adrift, desperately trying to hail imaginary “new fans.” Of course, Star Wars keeps failing to please its own alienated fans. The greatest culprit here: Godless, sex-obsessed progressivism. One can't correct from this without visibly rejecting “woke” politics. 7. K-Pop Demon Hunters owned the summer We haven't had a genuine pop-culture movie phenomenon in ages. Then along comes this little giant animated movie on Netflix. ‘K-Pop Demon Hunters' Pits Singing Heroines vs. Monster Idols, Marian A. Jacobs Kids sang catchy songs. Adults found deeper themes to explore. YouTube reactions and covers on Instagram/TikTok exploded. For the first time, Netflix had a true four-quadrant hit on its hands. And dear Lord, may they learn only the right lessons from this, and not turn this into another streaming slop like so much other stuff. 6. ‘Woke' stories stepped back, yet persisted 251. Could a Cultural ‘Vibe Shift' Advance Christian-Made Fiction? Due to political events we won't detail, that agenda is on the wane. At least the Sexualityism religion is seen as stale and unstable. Many are still trying to figure out what, if any, ideas will replace it. A. D. Sheehan had to critique Brandon Sanderson, a late arrival to the “woke” content scene: Brandon Sanderson's New Fantasy ‘Wind and Truth' Summons a Postmodern Cringestorm. Oddly enough, we keep seeing Christian parents posting about the random books they find, after which they ask “Is it woke?” Pro tip: yeah, it's probably woke, especially with a cover like that. By now we surely have enough Christian-made novels to help? 5. Corporate slop threatens human stories 274. Why Shouldn't AI-Generated Content Replace Human Stories? This is partly about AI-generated slop, but not always. Skeptical fans now refer to anything bad with “this looks AI.” Why? Because the problem goes deeper than technology amok. Long before AI, corporate studios began relying on algorithms. I believe that's when these stories began feeling less, well, human. 272. Can We Save Cinema from Sloppy Stories? Instead of human hunches, stories get greenlit by metallic minds. Reference: the short-lived run of Robert Zemekis mocap movies. At first people express curiosity, but eventually they get bored. Prediction: this too shall pass. We'll see a lot of forced “firsts,” like “the first fully AI-generated movie.” They may even succeed. But the novelty will quickly wear off as it did before Mars Needs Moms. Still, Christian creators must dig deeper to defend organic human stories with philosophies deeper than “AI destroys the Earth.” 4. Conservative TV is trying more fantasy We greatly anticipate the DailyWire+ show The Pendragon Cycle. Based on Stephen Lawhead's novels, seven episodes drop Jan. 22. Christian showrunner Jeremy Boreing actually stepped down from being Daily Wire co-CEO, it seems, to ensure finishing this series. Political hot takes scarcely outlast the day. Great stories last long. Alas, there's the constantly controversial Magician's Nephew movie Marketing for this is dreadful, with publicly floated nonsense about an actress playing Aslan or the movie featuring “rock and roll.” 257. By Aslan's Mane, is Netflix Really Casting a Lady as the Lion? Meanwhile, platforms like Angel (run by LDS members, yet with freedom for Christians) released The Wingfeather Saga season 2. We also saw a new angel-heroes show, Gabriel and the Guardians. ‘Gabriel and the Guardians' Echoes a Golden Era of Saturday Morning Cartoons, Jenneth Leed Alas, any sci-fi-ish efforts seem restricted to dystopian dramas. We need higher budgets and risks to widen those genre limits. 3. Realm Makers unites Christian creators 265. How Can We Shine the Gospel at the Realm Makers Expo? 266. How Do You Assemble a New Expo for Christian Fandoms? | with Scott Minor Last year's conference in Grand Rapids marked an experiment. Can this organization blend creator training with a public expo? Results were mixed-positive, mainly because of the venue choice. For me, a debut sci-fi novelist, results may have skewed better. Yet our primary audience must be Christian fans and families. A semi-major downtown is difficult for these folks to access. Next year's new venue in St. Louis looks much more promising! And it sounds like the public Expo will be easier for fans to access. For Christian fantasy to grow, we must unite over common interest. Yet this unity must be based on love for the true Jesus, our Author. 2. Biblical fiction is the top Christian genre There's no contest. Amish and historical fiction is dethroned. Christian fantasy (mostly romantasy) remains confined to books. Amazon's ‘House of David' Anoints an Intriguing Biblical Epic, Michael Allen ‘House of David' Is Crowned King of Amazon Prime, Jenneth Leed 1. Fantasy for teen/YA women continues to rule the Christian-made fantastical worlds This might well be the repeat headline from previous years. Facts are facts. Teen girls and women outread everyone else. When they like fantasy, they prefer female heroes/relationships. Romantasy is the queen. And her handmaiden is royal drama. 249. What is ‘Romantasy'? | with Parker J. Cole And the new princess on the block? Time-travel romance, for sure. 263. What is Time-Travel Romance? | Every Hour Until Then with Gabrielle Meyer These books get the most attention on Instagram and elsewhere. Is it true that “men don't read”? Not necessarily. Men do read. But they tend to read nonfiction about culture, theology, history. And for fantastical fiction, these readers have unique expectations. Christians here favor proven legacies, especially Lewis/Tolkien. One can't complain about the reality. Instead, meet the standard. Frankly, that's my hope for Above the Circle of Earth and beyond. Of course I support teen/YA female-focused fantasy stories! Yet that's not my genre; it doesn't help me, personally, grow in joy. Surely there are more readers who favor other kinds of stories, maybe deeper, maybe in underdog genres like sci-fi and horror. Christians must expect a true joyous sci-fi future under King Jesus. And we uniquely understand supernatural realities/horror today. But making new stories isn't enough. We must cultivate readers. That's our mission at Lorehaven with our new mission statement: Escape bad books. Find the best Christian fantasy and sci-fi! Watch this space for more about bad books, reader cultivation, and new resolutions to avoid scroll traps and level up your imagination. Com station Top question for listeners What was your top fantasy story or least-liked story in 2025? Next on Fantastical Truth “In one cataclysmic moment, millions around the world disappear.” Jesus returned thirty years ago. Or rather, He sort of pre-returned, the warm-up act, if you will. Many faithful Christians believe in this kind of “rapture.” And in December 1995, two authors teamed up and used this idea to create the most successful biblical end-times thriller we've yet seen. Last summer, we overviewed the series. Yet now we'll ask how that first Left Behind novel has aged, thirty years after its release.

“In the darkness, something was happening at last. A voice had begun to sing. The hills were coming up. The earth was heaving and swelling like a wave of the sea. ‘Man, I give you the rule of this land. Treat it gently and cherish it.'”—C.S. Lewis, The Magician's NephewIf home is both our origin and our destination, the soul is always searching for a path back to where it was born. Though precarious and fraught with danger, that path is also saturated with the Life of God—life that is not only intended to guide us, but to be our sustenance for the epic quest.Recovering our origin stories is essential to our apprenticeship. They are seeds that are planted, becoming the identity of today and the vision of tomorrow.So what are the seeds of your origin story? What patterns or progressions do you notice as you slow down and reflect? How might God be inviting you to consider what He is forming in you today, in light of where He is leading you?We're on this journey with you.Join us as we unpack some of the seeds of the Become Good Soil story—and, in doing so, help recover and strengthen the promise carried in the seeds of your story as well.It's all been prologue.

In this Year Ahead episode, Lindsay Mack and Jeff Hinshaw explore the following: 2025 Reflections: 2025's deeply Piscean tone—shaped by Neptune in Pisces since 2011, the Hermit archetype, and themes of grief, waiting, and dissolution. A year of initiation: 2026 is a universal 1 year, aligned with the Magician, Wheel of Fortune, and Sun in the Tarot, pointing to beginnings, clarity, momentum, and reclaimed spiritual authority. Major astrological shift: Saturn and Neptune move from Pisces into Aries, ushering in a fire-driven era focused on action, identity, and leadership. Key February activation: Saturn enters Aries, an Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse coincides with the Chinese New Year // Year of the Fire Horse, and Saturn conjuncts Neptune at 0° Aries—marking the birth of a new cycle of imaginative, embodied leadership. Fire expands through the year: Jupiter's entry into Leo later in 2026 amplifies creativity, joy, and heart-led visibility. Tarot themes: 2025's patience and preparation (Hermit, Knight of Pentacles) give way to 2026's initiators—the Knight of Wands, Magician, Wheel, and Sun—emphasizing bold action and authorship. Long-cycle beginnings: Reflections on 2017 highlight how Magician/Sun years often launch projects and identities that shape an entire nine-year cycle. Working with grief: The episode emphasizes transforming grief into tools, talismans, and creative practices rather than bypassing it. Reclaiming agency: 2026 invites a redefinition of relationship to spirit, community, and collaboration, guided by the mantra “allow your mind to be the wand.” Choose your own adventure: Listeners are encouraged to clear unhelpful patterns, choose aligned collaborations, and ask: What is your tool? What is your name? Who are you ready to become?

In this Substack Live conversation, Katie Farinas is joined by fellow midlife coach Sue McCreedie to explore the powerful difference between setting goals and living from soul-aligned intentions.Both Katie and Sue share their journeys from medical professionals into midlife coaching, and why the new year is a natural inflection point—a time to reflect, release, and consciously choose what we want to bring forward.They discuss why goals often leave us feeling like we either succeed or fail, while intentions allow us to live in alignment with our deepest values and soul's desires. From that place, aligned goals can naturally emerge.Sue introduces numerology and explains how it can guide us through 2025 and 2026. Tarot cards are used as symbolic mirrors for each year, helping tap into the subconscious. Katie then guides Sue through a body scan, breathwork, heart chakra activation, and visualization meditation to connect with a soul word for 2026.Listeners are invited to play along, reflect, and listen for what their own soul is asking for next.

Welcome, my dark souls! In this haunting chapter of Unholy December, we uncover the chilling possession outbreaks that swept through convents in France, Spain, and Italy during the 17th century. From violent public exorcisms to quiet nocturnal terrors, these cases reveal how fear, faith, and control shaped the lives of cloistered women across Europe. Drawing from diaries, trial records, and centuries of historical analysis, this episode exposes the obscure boundary between mysticism, trauma, and the supernatural. A deep, unsettling journey into the archives where some of history's darkest whispers have been waiting. *Listener Discretion is Advised*****************Sources & References:Aldous Huxley, The Devils of Loudun (1952).Michel de Certeau, The Possession at Loudun (1970).Nancy Caciola, Discerning Spirits: Divine and Demonic Possession in the Middle Ages (2003).Edward Peters, The Magician, the Witch, and the Law (1978).John D.
