Quietmind Astrology — Learn Vedic Astrology with Jeremy Devens
Sydney Sweeney has been everywhere lately, not just for her acting, but for the way she carries herself under pressure. In this episode, I explore what her chart reveals about that steady, self-assured presence, and what we can all learn from it.Born September 12, 1997, Sydney's Moon sits in Uttara Shada Nakshatra, “the Later Invincible One.” This lunar placement reveals a natural steadiness and quiet strength, the ability to face challenge without reacting. It's that same energy we see in the viral meme: her calm, clear, unbothered response when others might get defensive.Uttara Shada natives are born with integrity and endurance. They work hard, stay loyal to their values, and tend to earn success through consistency rather than hype. Whether in fame or in daily life, this nakshatra teaches us the value of inner composure, the kind that comes from knowing who you are.In this episode, I share:How Uttara Shada energy shows up in Sydney Sweeney's chart.The meaning of the Vishvadevas: the ten deities of this nakshatra.Lessons from other Uttara Shada natives like Abraham Lincoln, Rosa Parks, and Nina Simone.The deeper spiritual lesson of staying calm in the face of criticism.How to embody Uttara Shada energy in your own life, especially when you feel misunderstood or tested.If you have this nakshatra in your Moon, Ascendant, or Atmakaraka, this episode will help you understand your strength and how to live from it.Free Vedic Birth Chart & Training: quietmindastrology.com/freebirthchartInstagram: instagram.com/quietmindastrologyYouTube: quietmindastrology.com/youtubeMentorship Waitlist: quietmindastrology.com/mentorshipYoga Teacher Training Podcast: anchor.fm/yogateachertrainingQuietmind Yoga: quietmind.yogaKeywords: Vedic astrology, Uttara Shada Nakshatra, Sydney Sweeney birth chart, Moon in Uttara Shada, Vedic birth chart reading, Nakshatra meanings, Vedic astrology podcast, Quietmind Astrology, self-awareness through astrology, astrology for personal growth, Sydney Sweeney astrology, Sydney Sweeney zodiac sign, celebrity astrology reading, famous people with Uttara Shada, astrology of celebrities, Sydney Sweeney birth chart analysis, inner strength and composure, staying calm under pressure, spiritual lessons in astrology, emotional intelligence, self-discovery through astrology, Vedic wisdom for modern life, astrology and mindfulness, learn astrology, how to read your Vedic chart, astrology lessons, astrology insights, weekly astrology podcast, understanding your Moon sign, astrology for beginners

On this episode, I'm kicking off Noirvember with Cast a Deadly Spell (1991). This HBO original film combines film noir, horror, fantasy, comedy and the eldritch tales of the Cthulu mythos. In this timeline of 1948 Los Angeles, magic and mythological creatures are common. Phillip Lovecraft is the detective on a case to find a stolen rare book, the Necronomicon. Dames, vampires, demons and Old Ones are in this one. Spoiler free and filled with a whole lot of magic. The artist on my podcast playlist is Nina Simone .

At Town Hall captures a pivotal moment in Nina Simone's story, when she left behind her dream of being a concert pianist and embraced her identity as an indefinable and remarkable talent.At Town Hall shows off Nina's classical chops, infused with the jazz influences from working in nightclubs and mixed with the folk and gospel sounds of her youth. Adam and Peter pull apart the tracks to highlight each element of her unique musical blend. This may not be one of her most recognizable albums, but it is one of her most interesting. It's made even more fascinating by the fact that Nina met bassist Wilbur Ware and drummer Ben Riley only as they walked on stage!

Words taken from From the article written by Aaron Gonsher of the NYC Times. My tribute was turning this into a podcast. I've vocalised some of my comments. No credit needed for me here just pulled it together as a tribute show. On Valentine's Day in 1970, David Mancuso hosted a private party called Love Saves the Day in his loft at 647 Broadway in New York, a few blocks north of Houston Street. He was an audio obsessive with a voracious appetite for spiritual sounds and a profound sense of community, and the event was an opportunity to bring together friends in a setting unfettered by commercial demands, or the restrictions of their outside lives.

Hollie McNish has been writing poems about – as she puts it – ‘anything and everything' since she was seven years old. Her work now reaches audiences of millions, through her books, performances and short videos, making her one of the UK's most widely shared poets. In 2017 she won the Ted Hughes Award for her book Nobody Told Me, a collection of poetry and diary entries that she kept from the moment she discovered she was pregnant until her daughter was three. She has published six other collections, including her most recent, Virgin, which explores how one six letter word holds such power. Her choices include music by Telemann, Joseph Bologne Chevalier de Saint-George, Nina Simone and Tchaikovsky. Presenter Michael Berkeley Producer Clare Walker

At the age of 16, Lorde went #1 across the world. She was catapulted from the suburbs of Auckland to the Grammy's stage, winning Song of the Year. 12 years and four albums later, she's continued to defy expectations as a pop artist and is one of the most gifted songwriters of our time. This is an extended edit of a Take 5 that was filmed for the TV series, but this podcast is an extended edit - capturing even more stories, insight, and sounds. It's an incredible conversation with one of the most thoughtful people I've met. Lorde has been going through a massive period of change. A chrysalis, taking new form. So I worked up a Take 5 theme to draw that out. And from Lucinda Williams to Westerman to something very close to home, hearing her speak about the craft of song is a rare treat.Lorde's song choices:Lucinda Williams – 'Fruits of My Labor'Bronski Beat – 'Smalltown Boy'Nina Simone – 'Suzanne'Westerman – 'Confirmation'Charli xcx & Lorde – 'Girl, so confusing featuring lorde'00:00 Introduction and Podcast Overview00:49 Lorde's Early Influences and First Song Choice02:04 Lucinda Williams' Impact on Lorde09:30 Lorde's Childhood and Musical Beginnings12:56 The Mystery of Songwriting14:02 Second Song Choice: Small Town Boy24:10 Reflecting on Teenage Years and Womanhood28:22 Lorde's Relationship with Her Parents30:18 Third Song Choice: Suzanne30:27 Nina Simone's Transformative Cover of 'Suzanne'31:16 Leonard Cohen's Inspiration and Poetic Imagery32:12 Nina Simone's Unique Interpretation35:39 Exploring Gender and Identity in Music36:36 The Impact of Personal Transformation39:48 The Creative Process Behind 'Virgin'46:20 The Emotional Journey of 'Girl So Confusing'50:06 Reflections on Vulnerability and Friendship55:22 Concluding Thoughts and Future PlansWatch Take 5 on ABC iview:https://iview.abc.net.au/show/take-5-with-zan-rowe

Love is the Message is back! After last series' mammoth 18-month excavation of the year 1977 we're switching things up a bit. While we'll continue to chart our rough way through the history explored in our work to date, for the moment we're going to focus on a few smaller, more bite-size topics, starting with the 2024 film Soundtrack to a Coup D'Etat. A natural partner piece to our beloved Summer of Soul, Johan Grimonprez's documentary tracks in vivid and exhilarating style the Cold War episode that led American musicians Abbey Lincoln and Max Roach to crash the UN Security Council in protest against the murder of Congolese leader Patrice Lumumba. On this show Tim and Jeremy discuss mid-Twentieth Century decolonialism, resistance and the activities of black jazz activists in America. We hear the history of the colonisation of Congo by Belgium, introduce Lumumba as a unique historical figure, and spend some time reflecting on how these imperial legacies resonate today. On the music front, we hear listen to Roach behind the kit, cue up a series of Congolese rhumbas and boleros, and close with seminal civil rights singer Nina Simone. Elsewhere in the episode we stop by Malcom X, Khrushchev, and Joseph Conrad. The horror, the horror…Edited by Matt Huxley.Tracklist:Max Roach - Freedom Day Ata Ndele - Adou Elenga Joseph Kabasele - Independence Cha-Cha O.K.

Baltimore, Téhéran, Buenos Aires, Khartoum, aux quatre coins du monde, des communautés sont frappées de plein fouet par les violences d'État… jusqu'au jour où elles réagissent. D'abord en s'indignant, puis en bravant tous les interdits pour faire connaître la réalité des faits, les propager et les dénoncer. Des femmes et des hommes qui se retrouvent dans la rue à défier le pouvoir, à brandir les photos de leurs enfants disparus, à chanter et à danser, pour l'égalité des droits et pour la liberté ! Mais pourquoi certaines morts soulèvent-elles des foules ? Qu'est-ce que nos émotions, de l'indignation à la colère, font à la politique ? En quoi les affections qui nous lient jouent dans nos réactions et nos actions ? Du mouvement Black Lives Matter aux États-Unis au soulèvement Femme, Vie, Liberté en Iran, en passant par la révolution au Soudan, notre invitée anthropologue Chowra Makaremi questionne nos résistances affectives. De l'intime au politique, elle livre un essai magistral aux éditions La découverte. Son titre ? « Résistances affectives. Les politiques de l'attachement face aux politiques de la cruauté ».

Episode 22In this podcast, professional astrologers Chani Nicholas, Thea Anderson, and Eliza Robertson look to the sky to make sense of what's happening here on Earth.This special episode is entirely dedicated to Pallas Athena — the asteroid and warrior goddess known for her strategic genius. We start by unpacking her many myths, including the famous story of her birth from Zeus' head, her role in the beheading of Medusa, and her origins in ancient Libya. Then we get into the astro of it all. We break down how Pallas Athena became one of the four asteroid goddesses, and how the archetypal warrior queen manifests in your birth chart. And finally, we look at the charts of major icons with prominent Pallas placements — like Amelia Earhart, Nina Simone, Issa Rae, and Britney Spears — and dig into the ways they each used intelligence, independence, and innovation to their advantage. Ready to enter your strategy era? Pull up your chart in the CHANI app (yes, your Pallas Athena readings have arrived), and welcome Pallas Athena into the chat.Content warning: sexual assault, domestic violenceTimestamps:(00:00) - Welcome to Down to Astro episode 22(00:50) - An introduction to Pallas Athena(11:16) - Mythological origins and evolution of Pallas Athena(23:46) - Pallas Athena's role in Greek tragedy(25:00) - The complexities of Pallas Athena's relationship with the patriarchy(27:16) - Athena and the betrayal of Medusa(36:31) - Pallas Athena and the archetype of the virgin goddess(39:12) - Pallas Athena's astrological significance(41:06) - The astronomy of the asteroid Pallas Athena(45:39) - Amelia Earhart: aviation and Athena on the ascendant(54:15) - Audre Lorde: “poetry is my primary weapon”(01:00:28) - Nina Simone: child prodigy and musical genius(01:13:09) - Diana Ross: international icon and innovato(01:15:17) - Issa Rae: “Insecure” and strategizing in communit(01:21:38) - Miley Cyrus: Pallas vs. Billy Ray Cyrus(01:24:01) - Britney Spears: a legal battle for freedom(01:27:24) - Tina Turner: superstar, sensation, survivor(01:34:12) - Lucy Lawless: TV's warrior princess(01:43:02) - How to work with Pallas Athena in the CHANI appThis episode was recorded on 7/30/2025.For more astrological insights, download the CHANI app or follow CHANI on Instagram, TikTok, and Bluesky.The song “Midas,” featured in the podcast, was created by NISHA and is available wherever you listen to music.This episode also mentioned the following creative works:“Asteroid Goddesses: The Mythology, Psychology, and Astrology of the Re-Emerging Feminine” by Demetra George and Douglas Bloch“Circe” by Madeline Miller“Flowers” by Miley Cyrus“Hit Me Baby One More Time” by Britney Spears“Insecure” (2016-2021) TV series created by Issa Rae“Metamorphoses” by Ovid“The Mis-Adventures of Awkward Black Girl” (2011-2013) Web series created by Issa Rae“Mississippi Goddam” by Nina Simone“The Oresteia” by Aeschylus“What's Love Got To Do With It?” (1993) Film directed by Brian GibsonP.S.

If you are one of the people feeling that things are not going to be all right, this one's for you. Coda #46 comes from Bill McKibben, veteran climate change activist and founder of multiple campaigns and organisations – check out Strength&Solidarity Ep. 57. He told us how hard it can be to stay optimistic, when the odds against success seem high. The Beatles' Here Comes the Sun is one of his go-to tracks for regaining his footing, so perhaps it's no surprise that he is currently organising people to “rise up” for Sun Day, a day of action “for a sun-powered planet” next month, 21 September, We've started releasing the Coda as a separate show, not just part of the main Strength&Solidarity podcast. You will find both of them in our feed here, or on our Substack page, with transcripts, and related links.

A federal appeals court upholds a ruling that blocks ICE from broad immigration stops in LA, raising questions about what this means for immigrant communities and enforcement moving forward. President Trump’s attempt to end birthright citizenship is not faring well in court. This time, the Supreme Court may not save him. COVID ticked up in parts of California and is expected to peak in the LA area in late August. Should you get boosted now? Jeff Buckley’s vocals drew comparisons to Nina Simone and Led Zeppelin’s Robert Plant. He died at age 30, but his fan base is still strong today. He’s the subject of Amy Berg’s new documentary.
Sammy Kim (they/them) is a multifaceted individual: a queer artist, writer, healer, sex worker, community organizer, caregiver, and friend. From a young age, Sammy took on a caregiving role when their mother was diagnosed with Parkinson's, moving in with relatives as her condition progressed. Seeing their mother struggle with her health, Sammy naturally came into a role of caregiving, grounding themselves in gratitude while extending empathy towards their family. By their pre-teen years, Sammy knew they were queer but felt compelled to hide it due to their Christian upbringing, even trying to "ungay" themselves to avoid eternal damnation. Operating out of fear, Sammy didn't come out to their parents until their mother approached them about it, by which time they had been living openly for three years. Although their mother struggled to accept this part of Sammy, she affirmed her love, signaling a need for more time to understand. Through sex work, what began as a caregiving role to provide for men seeking to feel wanted eventually evolved into a way for Sammy to heal from their early childhood trauma of sexual abuse. Their work became a way for them to deeply question their relationship to the sexualization tied to their identities. As Sammy continues to unravel the many intersections of their experiences, they choose with intention to feel alive in the present, living in the joy that stems from simply being themselves without distraction.
