Michael Malice (“YOUR WELCOME”) invites the man who has probably done one of the deepest dives on the Epstein Files, journalist Michael Tracey, onto the show to discuss how the Epstein story became a totem for political anxieties, the facts that have stayed true and the ones that continue to change, and what might be the cause for the DOJ's extreme redactions of the files. https://x.com/mtraceyhttps://www.mtracey.net/Order NOT SICK OF WINNING: http://notsickofwinning.comOrder THE WHITE PILL: http://whitepillbook.com/Order THE ANARCHIST HANDBOOK: https://www.amzn.com/B095DVF8FJOrder THE NEW RIGHT: https://amzn.to/2IFFCCuOrder DEAR READER: https://t.co/vZfTVkK6qf?amp=1https://twitter.com/michaelmalicehttps://instagram.com/michaelmalicehttps://malice.locals.comhttps://youtube.com/michaelmaliceofficialIntro song: "Out of Reach" by Legendary House Cats https://thelegendaryhousecats.bandcamp.com/The newest episode of "YOUR WELCOME" releases on iTunes and YouTube every Wednesday!

All this astrology means for a wacky and wild 2026. There are three Mercury retrograde cycles:Feb 26 – Mar 20, Jun 29 – Jul 23, Oct 24 – Nov 13. Major Eclipses in 2026: Annular Solar Feb 17, 2026; Total Lunar Mar 3, 2026; Total Solar Aug 12, 2026; Partial Lunar Aug 27–28, 2026. The February and March eclipses coincide with Mercury retrograde, Check out my previous podcast episode I recorded with Hilary Harley for more on the first six months of 2026. A major planetary shift occurs at the end of the month when Neptune shifts into Aries on 1/26 for the next 12 years. Slow-moving Neptune initiates a new long-term cycle of societal shifts that will bring new ideals, inventions, inspirations and creative impulses within the collective consciousness signifying — a generational shift that highlights creative action, and separating illusion from reality. January is an action packed month which will feel like two months because there's a marked difference between the beginning of the month and the end of the month. Early January is marked by a stellium of Capricorn planets including the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars morphed into Mountain goats climbing that mountain of karma. Then the gang goes gaga for Aquarius, as they all launch into Aquarian airspace the third week in Aquarius, with Venus kicking off the Airy fun fest on 1/17, joined by the Moon in Aquarius on 1/18 after the New Moon in Capricorn occurs that afternoon. Aquarian action amps up as the Sun transits in on 1/19, Mercury on 1/20 and Mars joins the cosmic party in time for my birthday on 1/23. Pluto is there welcoming them into the fold. I'll explain more later in the episode what the Aquarian Army means for us. In early January the Capricornian cluster makes it a powerful month for structuring your life, focusing on your ambitions and potential to achieve worldly or material goals. — a powerful time for career moves, organization, and success orientation. Mars mobilizes in Capricorn where he is exalted until 1/23 which gives drive, discipline and leadership energy. Mars makes it easier to initiate new plans, take on challenges and show up in life. Jupiter retrograde in comfy Cancer continues throughout January allowing for deep dives into the psyche to seek security emotionally and anchor into value systems which will go the distance. Neptune nudges forward into Aries on 1/26 leaving a Pisces puddle of delusions and illusions in its wake. Neptune's entrance into Aries on Jan 26 marks a long-term spiritual and identity shift.

The year ahead astrology forecast for 2026, with predictions about the major planetary alignments taking place over the next twelve months, with astrologers Chris Brennan and Austin Coppock. We spend the first half of the episode giving a big picture overview of the most important planetary alignments in 2026, and then in the second half we dive into a month by month breakdown of the astrology of the next year. This is episode 517 of The Astrology Podcast. Overview of the Astrology of 2026 The year opens with Saturn and Neptune departing from Pisces and moving into the tropical zodiac sign of Aries, where they form an exact conjunction with each other in February, marking the peak of the reality distortion field. February and March sees the start of our first eclipse season, with a solar eclipse in Aquarius in February, followed by a lunar eclipse in Virgo in early March, marking the beginning of a new eclipse series of major endings and beginnings in Leo-Aquarius while the Virgo-Pisces series winds down. The Saturn-Neptune conjunct is reactivated in April when Mars enters that sign and forms a quadruple conjunction with Mercury, Mars, Saturn, and Neptune. Later in April the planet Uranus moves into the sign of Gemini where it will stay until 2033, thus marking the full onset of the Uranus return of the United States. This Uranus transit through Gemini reaches a critical and explosive turning point around July 4, when Mars conjoins Uranus in Gemini, which is the first in a series of four pivotal conjunctions between now and 2032. Jupiter spends the first half of the year wrapping up its transit through the sign of exaltation in Cancer, with one of the main highlights being an auspicious Venus-Jupiter conjunction in early June, but then in the second half of the year Jupiter moves into Leo and begins a series of alignments that will put the spotlight on that sign in late 2026 and early 2027. In August we get our second eclipse season of the year, with a solar eclipse in the sign of Leo, followed by a lunar eclipse in the sign of Pisces, thus fully inaugurating the Leo-Aquarius eclipse series. There is a messy Venus retrograde in the signs of Libra and Scorpio in October and November, and then the year closes with Mars getting ready to station retrograde in Leo and Virgo, leaving us on a cliffhanger that leads into the beginning of 2027. 2026 Electional Astrology Report https://theastrologypodcast.com/2026report/ Astrotheoros https://astrotheoros.com Use the code ASTROLOGYPOD to get a free month of the program!

2026 is a powerful turning point, and in this episode I'm joined by astrologer Deborah Norton to talk about the major astrology themes shaping the year ahead. This is not just another year astrologically. It's a true reset, a rebirth, and the beginning of something entirely new. One of the biggest shifts is Saturn moving into Aries, starting a brand new 29-year cycle. This energy is all about fresh starts, courage, leadership, and creation. Neptune also moves into Aries, which puts us in what Deborah describes as the primordial soup, a time of chaos, creativity, and possibility. Things may feel stirred up, unclear, or in motion, but this is fertile ground. This is where new worlds are born. The message is clear: start building what you want now. Pluto is now fully in Aquarius, and this is huge. Pluto in Aquarius helps us do things in ways we've never done before. It's not about the “me,” it's about the “we.” This is collective change, innovation, and radical new ways of thinking. We're entering an era of new information, new systems, and pure creativity. Be open to the new, even if it feels unfamiliar. Another big player this year is Uranus in Gemini, bringing breakthroughs in technology, communication, and consciousness. New ideas, new conversations, and new ways of connecting are coming online quickly. Pluto, Neptune, and Uranus are all working together in 2026, supporting massive change and forward momentum. We also talk about key timing moments in 2026, including Neptune's move into Aries on January 26, which kicks off a brand new journey and personal revolution. The Nodes of Fate change signs, with the North Node moving into Aquarius and the South Node into Leo, shifting us away from ego and performance and toward community, collaboration, and collective purpose. There are eclipses in February/March and August, and July stands out as a particularly magical and exciting month. The overall message of 2026? This is a year to do. Aries energy is about action, movement, and creation. This is a powerful time for artists, creators, visionaries, and anyone ready to bring something new into the world. Things are changing fast, making way for newness. The invitation is to get busy, stay open, and consciously create what comes next.

This week, we cover seven transits—including Mercury entering Capricorn on January 1st, Chiron stationing direct in Aries, and a Full Moon in Cancer—as 2026 begins with rare alignment: Mars, the Sun, and Venus in Capricorn all forming sextiles to the North Node in Pisces.But first, a reflection on the Sean Combs documentary The Reckoning—not to pile on, but to sit with what it stirred up in me as an astrologer who shares key placements with him. What separates transformation from destruction? What happens when Scorpio's intensity finds the shadow instead of the light? And as Pluto enters Aquarius for the next 20 years, is the era of the untouchable star finally ending?Plus: the nine-year numerology cycle begins, and I share where I was in 2017 versus now—and invite you to do the same.(2:18) Astrological reflections on the Sean Combs: The Reckoning(24:11) Mars in Capricorn Sextile the North Node Retrograde in Pisces 11° – December 26 – 31 (Friday – Wednesday) – Monday, December 29.(26:53) Mercury in Sagittarius Square Saturn in Pisces 26° – December 25 – 28 (Thursday – Sunday) – December 28 – 31 (Sunday – Wednesday) – Monday, December 29.(34:56) Mercury in Capricorn – January 1 – 20, 2026Dates that Mercury transited through Capricorn previously:January 8 – 27, 2025January 13 – February 4, 2024December 6, 2022 – February 11, 2023December 13, 2021 – January 2, 2022(40:50) The Sun in Capricorn Sextile the North Node Retrograde in Pisces 10° – December 29 – January 2 (Monday – Friday) – Thursday, January 1.Venus in Capricorn Sextile the North Node Retrograde in Pisces 10° – December 31 – January 2 (Wednesday – Friday) – Thursday, January 1.(48:40) Chiron Direct in Aries 22°35' April 5, 2025 – Chiron Enters its Retrograde Shadow in Aries 22°35' (Same day that Saturn entered its Retrograde Shadow in Pisces 25°02')July 30, 2025 – Chiron Retrograde in Aries 27°09'January 2, 2026 – Chiron Direct in Aries 22°35'April 25, 2026 – Chiron Exits its Retrograde Shadow in Aries 27°09'(56:11) The Full Moon in Cancer 13° at 2:02 AM PST on Saturday, January 3, 2026.Get the 2026 Astrology GuideJoin my Substackhttps://www.theweeklytransit.com/

In this episode of So Divine!, Stephanie and Megan explore the celestial landscape for January. They begin with a peek into what's ahead in 2026, including the dramatic Saturn/Neptune Conjunction in Aries, which offers a cosmic sense of a new beginning. Looking at this month's astrological inspirations, they begin by discussing Chiron stationing direct and how this may trigger our "ouch spots” as well as offer us an opportunity for healing. They talk about Venus and Mars dancing together in Capricorn, each forming potent cazimis as they oppose Jupiter in Cancer; with this, we're invited to find growth and possibility through weaving together the the feminine and masculine, love and desire. They discuss the shift of planets into Aquarius that occurs later in the month and how with their making a union with Pluto, we're brought into a sphere of intensity, encouraged to excavate what resides below the surface in service of deep transformation. Additionally, they explore this month's lunations: the Cancer Full Moon and Capricorn New Moon. Stephanie picks a Tarot card at random--the Chariot--and Megan explains how this archetype inspires us to get moving on actualizing our dreams and going after our goals using our intuition to guide us.
The Astrology for January 2026, with Decembers Reflection The Energy of January screams Power Moves, Soft Hearts & Revolutionary EnergyJanuary 2026 kicks off the year with no hesitation. This month blends emotional depth, Capricorn grind, and Aquarius rebellion, asking us to build solid foundations and question the systems we're standing on.We begin the year with mixed signals as Mercury clashes with Neptune, reminding us to slow our words and choose peace over petty. As Mercury enters Capricorn on January 1, clarity returns and New Year's intentions become strategic plans. Chiron moving direct in Aries on January 2 opens a powerful healing portal around identity, confidence, and inner-child wounds.The Cancer Full Moon on January 3 softens the pace, pulling us inward to nurture home, family, and emotional security. This moon reminds us that rest is part of success — you can't pour from an empty cup.From January 6 through mid-month, Capricorn energy dominates. With Venus, Mars, Mercury, and the Sun activating this sign, the focus turns to ambition, commitment, money, and long-term goals. These transits support power couples, career moves, financial discipline, and building something that lasts. While indulgence and overconfidence peak around January 9–10, the message is balance — pleasure is allowed, excess is optional.The New Moon in Capricorn on January 18 is one of the most important manifestation moments of the month. This lunation is about planting seeds for career growth, legacy, leadership, and tangible success. If you're ready to climb a new mountain in 2026, this is your starting line.Mid-month also brings a major energetic shift as Venus enters Aquarius on January 17, followed by the Sun on January 19. The focus moves from personal ambition to community, friendships, innovation, and collective change. Powerful alignments involving Pluto, Saturn, Uranus, and Mars highlight networking, revolutionary ideas, and calculated risks that can lead to long-term rewards.January 19 is especially charged, emphasizing leadership through collaboration, community power, and future-focused thinking. Friendships deepen, social circles transform, and the right connections open unexpected doors.As the month closes, Mars conjunct Pluto in Aquarius pushes deep personal and collective reinvention, while Mercury and Venus bring warmth, connection, and community support back into focus.About the Host: Katherine is an esteemed practitioner of Chakra, Astrology, and Tarot Alchemy, harnessing the cosmic forces and energies to manifest magic and success.As the visionary behind the acclaimed Chakras & Cusswords Podcast, she curates an oasis for the contemporary mystic, guiding seekers on a transformative journey of self-discovery.

No Gary Busey for the sequel, but there are some other recogniizable faces from horror in 2008's Gingerdead Man 2: The Passion of the Crust! From IMDB: The deranged cookie murderer known as the The Gingerdead Man is about to crash a studio lot and leave behind a trail of bloody murder and hilarious mayhem. We hope you enjoy this one more than we did!
Veteran astrologer and Mystical Messages podcast host Hilary Harley outlines what to expect for the first month of 2026. January finds us shifting from a deep clearing and cleansing passage into wild, fast-paced energy. The end of 2025 and first two weeks of January bring a close to dominant water and earth energies. Just after mid-month, fully 5 out of 10 planets will be cycling through Aquarius: The Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Pluto! Aquarius is the sign of connectivity, ideas, and frequency. It moves faster than lightning. The sign of innovation and humanitarian good will draws our focus toward what is possible and best for everyone. Old restraints and power dynamics are over and done now. Break the mold and be open to the unusual, non-mainstream and avant garde. Hold on to your hat when spiritual Neptune moves into fiery Aries on January 26th. Cycling through the first sign of the zodiac until 2039, Neptune acts, moves and engages based on intuitive, soulful impulse. It is not shy or reticent. In Aries, Neptune follows divine downloads and directives then asks questions later! We are in for one wild and exciting ride! Welcome to 2026!

Send us a textStep into the celestial flow of 2026 as Andrea Atherton is joined once again by renowned astrologer David Hauser for a timely and illuminating conversation on the astrological forces shaping the year ahead. Together, they reflect on how 2025 served as a pivotal threshold year, one that asked us to dismantle outdated identities, confront systemic fatigue, and prepare our nervous systems for profound collective change. This episode offers listeners a grounded yet visionary lens on how last year's initiations have set the stage for a more awakened, responsive, and truth-centered way of living in 2026.At the heart of this conversation is the ongoing and historic influence of Pluto in Aquarius, now fully activated, no longer theoretical. Andrea and David explore how the seeds planted in 2025—around liberation, decentralization, authenticity, and community—are now demanding embodiment. They also unpack key 2026 transits, including healing-oriented planetary shifts, continued Chiron activations, and pivotal Mercury movements that support integration, repair, and conscious communication. Particular attention is given to how these transits impact our emotional bodies, relationships, leadership models, and collective sense of belonging after years of disruption and acceleration.As the episode unfolds, listeners are offered both cosmic perspective and practical guidance for navigating 2026 with clarity and courage. Andrea and David speak to the deeper invitation of this year: to live in alignment rather than reaction, to choose connection over control, and to trust the intelligence of collective evolution. This is both a grounding conversation and a soulful call forward—reminding us that while the stars set the tone, we shape the experience. Whether you are astrologically fluent or simply feeling the pulse of change, this episode supports you in meeting 2026 with intention, resilience, and an open heart.David Hauser Websitehttps://www.davidhauserloveguide.com/Soulkiss Series: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Mr.-David-H.R.-Hauser/author/B0CZCW51XC?ref=ap_rdr&shoppingPortalEnabled=true&ccs_id=b8cbec0c-1a7e-4173-9a2b-f608b5d0f80d2025 Tarot Reading with Andreahttps://www.andreaatherton.com/booking-calendar/new-years-tarot-reading30-minute Consultation with Andrea https://www.andreaatherton.com/booking-calendarAndrea Atherton Websitehttps://www.andreaatherton.com/Love Anarchy Websitehttps://www.andreaatherton.com/podcasthttps://loveanarchypodcast.buzzsprout.comLove Anarchy Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/loveanarchypodcast/Andrea Atherton Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/andreaatherton-17/
In this Healthy Waves episode, host Sayan talks with Alexander and Viki about “Source Cards”. A practical spiritual framework that maps your birthdate into a birth card and a 13-card life path using the 52 playing card deck. The conversation focuses on why high-achievers can look successful but still feel off, how repeating patterns show up in relationships, money, career, and burnout, and how this method helps you stop comparing yourself to others and start making aligned choices. They also unpack a grounded reframe. Your hardest season might be a sign you are playing someone else's script, or it might be a core life lesson already baked into your path. Either way, clarity comes from learning your cards, spotting the energy pattern, and choosing your next micro-move on purpose. About the Guests: Alexander and Viki are the creators behind Source Cards, a system that uses the 52-card deck to help people identify personal patterns, soul lessons, and life themes based on birthdate. Their work supports high-performing individuals who want more alignment, self-acceptance, and clarity. Alexander is also the author of Play Your Cards Right. A Sacred Guide to Life on Earth. Key Takeaways The 52-card deck is used as a symbolic “hidden in plain sight” framework to reflect your birth card and a 13-card life path. Feeling “good on paper but off inside” can be a signal you are running unconscious patterns by default. Repeating cycles in love, money, health, career, or burnout often point to an upgrade your life is asking for. Knowing your “cards to play” can reduce comparison and self-judgment, and increase self-acceptance and empathy for others. The first micro-move is simple. Look up your birth card and personality card, then check if it resonates before going deeper. A hard season can mean you are struggling against your nature by following someone else's success script. A hard season can also be a core lesson in your life path, including challenge, Saturn, and Pluto themes tied to growth and shadow work. Authentic alignment can cost relationships that depend on you staying in an old role, and that discomfort can be part of the path. Weekly challenge. Pick one stuck area, write where the pattern repeated over 5 years, then ask what skill life is training in you. Clarity first, then choice. The goal is not fate. It's using insight to make better decisions.

Quaranteam - Dave In Dallas: Part 2 Lupie and Becca return from the Dallas Vax Center. Based on a post by RonanJWilkerson, in 12 parts. Listen to the Podcast at Explicit Novels. Let's review the List of characters: David Belsus (50)- adjunct professor at Eastfield College, DCCCD with a side hustle in data analysis. GuadaLupie Gutierrez (32); investment advisor, David's neighbor Esmeralda Gutierrez (9); Lupie's daughter Rebecca Sampson (18); Esme's babysitter Janice Hoppler (33); librarian, arrived to partner with Dave the same day Lupie and Becca left to get vaccinated. Shawna Cooper (36); senior meteorologist at WFAA, second woman sent to Dave outside a direct request. Olivia Barnes (21); Dave's goddaughter, horticulture major at Tarleton State University in Stephenville Melanie Ustanich (22); Livy's roommate, cybersecurity major at Tarleton. Dave smiled, a pair of events immediately coming to mind. He launched into a description of when Esme had called him up. Becca had been moping all day and Esme finally got her to admit that it was her birthday, but she hadn't heard from any family. Esme knew Becca loved meatloaf and mashed potatoes, but that was a bit out of her culinary reach. She asked Dave to help out. Well, first off, it was already after 5:30pm by the time Esme figured things out and got a hold of Dave. A meat loaf can take nearly an hour to cook, after all the ingredients are prepped and combined. But, if he made smaller portions, mini-meatloaves, it would cook faster. Oh, then He could Zoom with them and the three of them could eat together. "Wait, three?" "Yeah, in the beginning of lockdown, Lupie was stuck in New York. She's an investment manager and very good at it. She was giving a week-long training seminar when it happened." "But the lockdowns weren't big surprises. We all had some heads up to prepare, maybe unofficial, but it wasn't like they came out of the blue." "Yep, and her company choose to make sure the New York office had gotten the training Lupie had been going around doing, before they lock them away in their homes. They thought they could beat the clock. Lupie was practically climbing the walls by the third day. But that's a different discussion. We can come back to that." "Yeah, we definitely need to come back to that. I can't imagine being cut off from my kid, half a continent away from her with a major pandemic racing around." "It was rough." Dave returned to the original narrative, starting back with the moment he remembered some trick he'd seen making meatloaf cupcakes and piping mashed potatoes on top like it was icing. "You didn't. You can do that?" "I'd only seen it done before, but I managed to get it right enough." "For a teen girl mostly alone on her birthday, the attempt was probably 99% alone. Execution would be bonus points." "She was crying happy on the Zoom call. Esme is young but she's sneaky when she's planning something nice. She took delivery at the door and convinced Becca to sit at the table, not knowing what Esme was bringing over. Becca kissed the camera for the first minute after they brought up Zoom." Janice giggled. "I don't blame her." Janice made a 'lightbulb' face. "Oh, is that why she made you cupcakes for your birthday?" "Well, she might have done it anyway, but it was probably why she insisted she do it herself." In thinking along those lines, Dave remembered the letter he'd gotten yesterday. That would explain why Lupie had seemed a bit miffed that day. She'd wanted to do something special for his birthday, but had bowed to Becca's exuberant need to express her gratitude. His musing turned nearer to the moment. Janice was listening to him talk about two other women in affectionate, familiar terms, knowing full well those women would be here soon and share the bed with him as well, and she showed no signs of jealousy. Yeah, they mentioned something about it in the videos, but it was odd to see. "Okay, your turn. Tell me something about you, Janice." She winced. "Okay, first off, I'd prefer Jan in normal conversation. Janice is fine at some function outside the house, some formal setting, but when it's just family and associates." "Associates? Why not just say - " "Please don't use the same word as the title of that show." Dave was puzzled for a bit, then chortled. "Oh - " "Do. Not. Finish. That. Phrase." Janice glared. Dave nearly fell out of his chair laughing. Janice was thoroughly unamused. He forcefully collected himself. "Damn, I like that show, but I can get why you would not be happy. That character is annoying as hell." Jan stared, nonplussed. "I'll be good. Promise." He picked up her hand from the table and kissed it. Jan continued to give him half-squinty eyes. "So you were about to tell me something about you. Other than your death-ray eye superpower." "It's a good thing you're cute buster." She gave him a quick peck on the cheek. The squint was still there, but a bemused smile dangled below it. Janice proceeded to tell about the time the library put on a summer hands-on science series. One week the guide brought frogs and first red a book about frogs and their habitats. They let the kids reach in and touch some of the frogs - after rinsing their hands with deionized water first. Then they red a chapter from Frog & Toad. During the reading, one little boy wanted to touch the frogs again. He had earlier asked to hold one, but had been told the frogs had to stay inside the tub. The budding naturalist snuck behind the speaker, opened the lid, and took out a small frog. The frog of course took the chance to leap away. The startled and dismayed boy jumped back, knocking over the tub which he had not put the lid back on. Sixteen small to medium sized frogs dumped out on the floor. Startled as they were, they began hopping away, some heading through the equally startled mass of kids. Some of the children had declined to touch the frogs earlier and were now shrieking as the second Egyptian plague of Exodus blitzed outward from the tub, directly at them. Dave was holding his sides laughing as Jan continued. Obviously, story time was over. It took an hour and a half to calm the kids down, locate parents, ask a few of them to bring a change of garments for their little one - explaining the need for that took repetition of the same story to each parent, accompanied by laughter and sympathy and one angry Karen. Collecting the frog diaspora took the rest of the day, and three hours after closing. Dave was chortling and wiping tears from his eyes for a full minute after Jan finished. Jan settled into his lap, her arms draped around his neck. They kissed softly, languidly. David jarred backward. "Oh crap, I forgot to put in the order." "What order?" "I was going to order more groceries, especially snacks, and a couple of stuffed critters for Esme." "Lupie's little girl?" "Yep, she's mad about these things called Squish mallows. I could probably randomly pick one and she'd squeal happily to receive it. I held off ordering because I wanted to get your input, you know, anything special you wanted." Dave started leading her upstairs, which had Jan happy, but a bit less so when Dave made the turn for his office instead of heading straight to the bedroom. Gamely, she played along. Truth be told, she was glad to ask for a few things. She'd only been able to bring one rolling suitcase. They made the contactless pickup order for tomorrow morning and decided Dave would pick it up, with Jan remaining at the house in case Lupie, Becca, and Esme arrived while he was gone. As the order progressed though, Jan started laying soft kisses on Dave's cheek and forehead. Then she breathed soft and hot into his ear. Only a steely self-control kept him on task to finish, and Jan could see the battle warring in him. "You are so hot like this. I've never been around a guy that didn't jump me the moment I expressed the slightest interest. Sometimes before." Dave looked at her side-eyed as she wiggled her ass on his lap. His hands trembled. "Almost done. I'm just setting the pickup parameters. And I've had responsible reasons to hold back." He clicked submit on the last page, logged out of the site, and out of his computer. "I want you so bad." He turned his full attention to her, grasping her mid-torso, standing and pressing her to the nearest wall, his body pressed against her. Jan squeaked as he lifted her up, completely under his control. When he pressed her to the wall, her eyes lit up and she wrapped her arms around his neck, her legs around his waist and eagerly responded to his lips as he took hers with authority. She moaned softly. When Dave broke the kiss, they were both panting, fire flashing from eye to eye. She lowered her feet to the ground as he let off the pressure holding her to the wall. They practically raced to the bedroom, Jan in front, her left hand behind her holding his. Jan threw off the t-shirt as she crossed the bedroom threshold. Nope, no panties. Dave reached out and squeezed one butt cheek, causing Jan to let out an "eep!" and then laugh as she turned. She immediately began helping Dave strip off his clothes, walking backward the rest of the distance to the bed. Reaching the bed, Dave was now clad only in boxers, the two of them standing, Jan's legs pressed between Dave's and the bed, their bodies in loose contact. With a double-lift of his eyebrows, Dave shucked his boxers to the floor and placed two fingers of one hand gently on Jan's chest, between her soft, modest, lovely tits. He shoved lightly. Jan smiled crazily as she fell. Dave knelt at the edge of the bed, hooking her legs over his shoulders. He dropped hungry kisses on her inner thighs. Two on the left, then three on the right. One hot, suckling kiss far up her inner left thigh. Two quick kisses on her mound, then a long suckling kiss just to the right of her labia, barely out of contact with them. Emboldened by the heat and scent of arousal emanating from her, Dave sucked the full dimension of her light brown lower lips into his mouth, suckling them, massaging them with his lips wrapped over his teeth. He slipped his tongue gently past his lips, probing gently against her slit. Sliding along it. Flicking the delicate inner labia. His left hand snaked around her right leg. As it came over her hip, he let one finger trace against her skin, moving slowly, without pretense, hurry, or delay directly to her mound, adorned with a well-kempt narrow, vertical strip of curly black hair. His finger slowed to a crawl as it changed course downward. He switched to suckling the inner petals only, bringing his right hand up, one finger standing out, to her entrance. Jan moaned as he paused. Wanting, yearning. Then he slipped his finger in just as his lipped wrapped teeth pulled softly on her inner labia. "Ha! Oh fuck yeah! Fuck. Just like that you magnificent teasing bastard!" Jan's legs worked aimlessly, not gripping him, just loosely, slowly flailing, occasionally resting on the bed, but too worked up to hold still long. One finger of Dave's left hand reached Jan's now exposed clitoris. The touch alone ran through her like an electric shock and she screamed her pleasure again. Dave rubbed her clitoris gently, but firmly as he slipped a second finger into her, driving them in and out determinedly, with a mind to building her to release. Dave moved his hand away from Jan's clit, replacing it with his flicking tongue. "Oh" Jan's back arched. Her hands gripped tightly at the sheets. Her legs pulled back, lower legs dangling from tensed upper legs. Just as she uncoiled from the last wave, Dave turned his right hand over, sliding the fingers in and out in a slightly curved posture, stimulating and locating the much beloved nerve bundle on the roof of her vagina. Jan trembled again. "Fucking yeah, fucking maestro, fucking play me like a violin." Her voice shook and paused as she spoke. Her legs trembled. Dave sensed she was close. He positioned his fingers to flick against her g-spot as he flexed them in the beckoning 'come here' motion. The jolting response from that had not yet settled when Dave took her most sensitive nub in his mouth and massaged it with is lips around its edges and the tip with his tongue. Jan came unglued, shrieking and flailing as Dave pressed his joint oral and digital assault on her nethers. She gripped his head a few times, tightly, but never for more than a couple of seconds, the power of her orgasm short circuiting every ounce of her muscle control. As she collapsed to the bed, spent, awash in bliss, Dave relented and crawled up beside her on the bed. Jan lay panting, grinning like the proverbial cat. Between gasps, she relayed the metaphor. "But I'm the one that did the eating." Dave smiled wickedly. Jan laughed wildly, caught between the need for air and the hilarity of Dave's pun. Well, maybe not so hilarious, but she was certainly susceptible to granting high praise for anything he did over the next half hour or so. As her breathing calmed, Dave and Jan moved up the bed, getting their heads on the pillows and bodies fully on the mattress. With an eager, voracious look, Jan rolled over on top of Dave, slipping on leg to either side of his hips. Reaching behind her, she aligned his rigid member with her soppy wet entrance and threw herself backwards, engulfing his full length in one hungry thrust. "Fuck yes." Jan rocked her torso back and forth, parallel with Dave's, her rock-hard nipples sliding up and down his chest. Dave took to planting a kiss on her forehead at the top of each stroke. Jan placed her dainty hands on his chest and lifted her body off of his, transitioning to a rocking motion, undulating her torso and stirring his cock within her pussy. His shaft rubbed against her g-spot each stroke as her butt moved furthest backward. Her cries signified each contact. As she grew increasingly excited, Jan began riding up and down on Dave's member. He felt his own pleasure building. Dave reached one hand to Jan's tit, gently fondling the soft flesh and thumbing her nipple. His other hand reached to their point of contact, laying his thumb on her nub and gently pressing against it. Her own motions provided a rubbing motion. "Yes" Jan's head lolled back, practically limp. Dave lightly clasped her nipple between two fingers, giving a slight rolling motion. Jan rode him faster, becoming feverish, her breathing growing ragged. Dave felt the early spasms of her pending release and knew he wouldn't be far behind. He slipped both hands to her hips. At the first moment her hips seized, he grasped her firmly, pulling downward as he thrust upward. Jan exploded in a riot of flailing arms and rippling vaginal muscles. Her scream of joy echoed around the room even as it continued to issue from deep in her throat. Dave held as long as he could before allowing his own release to burst forth, erupting into her cavity and drenching her insides with his seed. Jan's body spasmed again, a second peak to her pleasure, a second, airless scream as her breath evacuated her body. Jan collapsed on Dave, rolling off immediately. The weight of her own body too taxing on her lungs attempting to replenish her much needed air supply. Dave held her close, only enough to maintain contact, yielding her space to recover. As Jan lay their breathing, she turned her eyes to Dave. She stared at him, still gasping. Her expression was unreadable, at least by Dave. Calming finally, she hugged him fiercely, kissed his jaw, and snuggled her head against him, but left her chest pulled slightly away to give her lungs full space to do their work. "God, I thought I was going to black out there. They weren't kidding about that 'when he pops' orgasm." "Better pleasure through science, baby." Jan barked a short laugh. "Science only did the last bit. The first two were all you hun." They lay quietly, enraptured by the tender intimacy of lying in each other's arms. Jan broke the silence after several minutes. "This is the one night I have you to myself. Becca and Lupie will be here tomorrow and your attention, emotional and physical will be divided between the three of us." Dave looked at her as she paused. "I should be jealous. But I'm not. I feel like that means there's something wrong with me, even though they said that was another effect of the serum. It's one thing to hear it, but totally another to feel it. Or not feel it. No, to feel it. I almost feel a sister ship with these two women I've never met. I think if you hadn't described them to me, let me feel your affection for them, your concern for the, I might be jealous now, and then it would turn off after they arrived, but the way you talk about them, it feels like they are already here, and part of us now." "I don't know how to respond to that." "I don't either, but I think it's a good thing. The fact is, we are sharing you - your bed, your life, our lives - and we have to get along for all our sakes. I don't regret it at all, it's just a little weird when you realize it's happening." Dave looked at her silently. "Just hold me David. Hold me all night." Chapter 3 – Reunited. September 20, 2020. Dave awoke to a strange sensation. Not one he was accustomed to. He felt the smooth feel of sheets against his legs and upper torso, but not between. A weight pressed down on his abdomen and a warm wetness encompassed his cock. Oh, right he has a girlfriend now. Sleeping in his bed. Well, not sleeping at the moment. Dave cracked his eyes open to see a large lump moving slowly under the sheets, over his pelvis in time with the wondrous, rhythmic feeling below his waist. He slipped a hand to Jan's back and trailed his fingertips softly along her satiny skin. Slowly, Jan slipped her head from under the sheet. "Good morning lover." Jan placed a soft, smoky kiss on his chin, her eyes locked on Dave's. "You don't have to do that every morning you know." "Of course not." Jan grinned wickedly. "The others will get their turns too. But for now, this kitty gets her morning cream." With that she slipped the sheet down his body, exposing him from the knees up, and settled her face on his organ again. Bowing to the inevitable - and loving every minute of it - Dave slipped a hand to Jan's thigh, sliding firmly, slowly, gently along the inside of her leg. He brought his hand close to her core, then slid slowly away, down to mid-thigh. Then back up. Jan hummed approvingly as he switched from his whole hand to just a single fingertip, adding swirls into the motion. He let the swirls drift closer and closer, knowing where she ached for him to brush against. But not yet. Reaching with both hands, Dave grasped the backs of Janice's thighs, lifting her lower body and rotating it towards his face, aligning their torsos, her mouth the pivot point. She squealed and giggled around his cock before clamping her lips firmly around his organ and doubling her efforts. With her hot wet sex directly in his face, Dave braced his thumbs about an inch to either side of her clitoris and moved them in unhurried circles. He lifted his face and blew hot breath at her slit. Jan's body tensed and flexed, a sign of encouragement even Dave could clearly read. Dave latched his lips on her dripping sex and nursed on her lower lips, drinking in her juices. He could feel her labia convulsing and puckering in response to his ministrations. Jan picked up her pace again. Dave wasn't sure if it was gratitude or a race, but he resolved he would not be the only one peaking this morning. Dave slipped his hands up her torso, taking her lovely pert tits into his hands, his fingers alternately groping her fleshy mounds and teasing her firm nipples. He slipped his tongue along her slit languidly before forming a firm spear of mouth muscle braced with the tip against her entrance. He plunged his tongue inside her. Jan's body seized and convulsed, her inner muscles grasping at his oral protrusion. Jan paused her worship of Dave's cock, bringing her head up to moan softly while his wet cock stood proudly in the cool air. As soon as the waves of pleasure had washed fully over her, Jan bent her head back to her self-appointed task. Dave did the same. In another minute or so, Jan brought Dave to his peak, causing him to jet gobs of the man cream she sought into her mouth as she captured it and swallowed as his balls paused between jets. The shuddering of her serum induced climax could not shake Jan's determination to consume every drop. Her first item of her morning to do list completed, Jan righted herself, then fell into bed alongside Dave. She gave him a kiss on the shoulder and snuggled in tightly with a big, satisfied smile on her face. After basking in the afterglow for several minutes, Jan spoke. "Make me breakfast and show me how?" Jan shredded cheddar while Dave cut bacon into small pieces with kitchen shears. Dave admired the small roundness of her ass pushing out his t-shirt, just a few inches above the hem. Her pokey, pert tits making small mounds to either side of the phrase "√-1 23 S p, and it was delicious." "This is not going to be authentic Mexican. It's barely recognizable as Tex-Mex, more like Messican." Jan raised an eyebrow. "A pile of food using some ingredients connected to Mexico or using flavors associated with Mexico, and so sloppy you absolutely must use a fork or spoon to eat it." Jan laughed. "Okay, Messican breakfast it is. What would this be if it were authentic?" "Migas. But we'd have to use chorizo instead of bacon and a Mexican cheese instead of cheddar. Maybe Oaxaca, that's got a great flavor for this." Dave dropped the cut-up bacon bits into the pre-heated pan hearing them sizzle immediately. "I love that sound." Jan smiled and leaned in for a kiss. Jan loved the counter play of soft eggs with the crunch of the bacon and tortilla strips. After they'd eaten, she offered to do dishes, so Dave went to his gun closet, getting out a back holster and a pistol. Now ready for yesterday's incident, Dave checked on the chickens again, finding nothing amiss this time. Other than the need to top off the food bin and water bucket. Time for the grocery pickup rapidly approached with no word from Lupie or Becca. Jan elected to remain, in case they arrived while Dave was gone. "I'll just have to suffer through sampling the library." She didn't have a poker face. "You already took a sample in the library." That got her laughing. Dave came through the door from the garage carrying a few bags with items needing refrigeration. He paused by the library door. "Hey hun, watcha readin?" Jan startled. "Oh, sorry, I didn't hear you come in. More in the car I take it?" "Yeah, can you grab the cold stuff first? I'll start stowing things in the fridge and freezer, then join you for the rest." As they were putting away groceries, Dave asked what Jan had been reading. "Baa Baa Black Sheep. By the binding and cover condition, I'm guessing you've red it already?" "Oh yeah. I loved the old TV show as a kid, so it was a treat to read about the real life guy it was based on." That started a discussion about 80's TV shows, and the re-runs playing then, and VHF and UHF stations that wound up as a general 80's slice of life retrospective. From a sci-fi nerd point of view. The discussion continued as Dave showed Jan the rest of the house, as well as the backyard and greenhouse. They had settled into the living room, sitting on the couch, on opposite ends with their lower legs tangled together, each reading, for nearly an hour when they heard a knock at the door. As Dave opened the door, Becca slammed into him. She clutched him tight, her head tucked down, pressed sideways against his chest. She was shaking. "Wow. They said the serum would make a woman aggressive. I didn't expect this though." Lupie's face made Dave quickly realize his assumption was misplaced. "Am I missing something?" "Later, David. Please" Lupie begged. "Sign here please sir." The soldier acted as if nothing unusual was going on. Lupie had a look of concern and sympathy. Dave signed quickly and ushered Lupie and Esme in while Becca shuffled along beside him, not letting go. Jan waited, standing, in the living room. "Lupie, Esme, Becca, this is Janice Hoppler, she arrived yesterday morning. She prefers Jan among family." Lupie shook Jan's hand and said hello warmly, slightly guarded. Becca refused to let go of Dave. Jan placed a reassuring hand on Becca's shoulder. Taking a closer look, Dave realized Becca's hair looked like it had been mussed and then raked back down with fingers rather than a comb or brush. On its own, he would have put that off to poor sleeping conditions in their overnight stay at the vaxx center. Other context clues were waking up a little voice in his head that something seriously wrong had happened while the ladies were away. Dave struggled to think of things that might soothe her. "Becca, I have mandarin Jarritos in the fridge and chocolate Pocky in the cupboard." Becca shook her head. "Just take me upstairs please, Dave." "Well, we need to get the three of you settled in, Bec." Becca squeezed tighter. "Please." It came out as a near whimper. Dave's face creased with concern as he looked to Lupie. "What happened?" "I'll tell you what I know before it's my turn." Lupie told him. "We should probably do this now though." "If Esme is fine with it, I can get her settled," Jan volunteered. "Which room is hers?" "Uh, you know, the one with ;” Dave said, walking awkwardly to the stairs. As Becca realized where he was going, she coordinated her movements with his, and then tried to lead the way, nearly dragging Dave the last few steps to the staircase. "Oh, oh right." Jan's look of worry only amplified Dave's concerns. He wasn't imagining then. Something had gone seriously wrong at that vax center. As Dave and Becca neared the staircase, Becca reached the arm behind Dave's back towards Lupie, beseechingly, making a grasping motion. Lupie acquiesced, following the pair up the stairs and into the master suite, and shutting the door behind the three of them. As they neared the bed, Becca began unbuttoning Dave's shirt. Dave reached to lift her shirt up, getting only partial compliance. Becca wanted Dave naked first. Dave played along, shucking his shoes and pulling off his socks. Dave stood there, stark naked, with a still clothed Becca holding tightly to him, but standing tall now, her head resting at the base of his neck. Becca slowly rubbed her whole body against him. Dave rubbed his hands along her back, hoping it would have a soothing effect. Becca began to grind her pelvis against Dave's. "Take me David. Make me yours." Becca stared into Dave's eyes, hungry and scared. "Make it so no one can take me away from you." Dave kissed her forehead, slowly moving his hands from her back to her tummy. It wasn't fast enough for Becca. She ripped her shirt over her head, then pulled her and Dave onto the bed. Taking a cue from her urgency, Dave undid her belt, button, and zipper, then grasped the hem of Becca's pants and yanked them off her. Becca and Lupie both gasped, but it didn't sound like fear, more like,; thrilled? Dave crawled back up the bed to lay beside her. He intended to get her aroused with kisses and touches, but Becca wasn't waiting. She pulled off her panties and lay with her legs apart. "Get on me David. Get in me and mark me as yours." Dave scooted closer, and sped his fingers along her side, resting softly under her lovely, small, bra-clad tit. Becca grabbed his shoulder and pulled, rolling him on top of her. "Now David Please!" her head lunged forward, capturing his lips and kissing him fiercely. Becca's arms took Dave in a bear hug. She wrapped her legs around his waist and began bucking her pelvis. "Just do it David," Lupie spoke in her softest tones. "I'll explain later, but she needs you now. I'm sure you want to give her something gentle and caring, but right now she needs the certainty and safety of being imprinted to you." Becca nodded beneath him, her eyes imploring. Taking a deep breath, Dave maneuvered himself to place the tip of his organ against her lips. He felt an abundance of wetness and felt relief. As frantic as she was, he'd expected her to be dry as a bone. That would have made consummation impossible. Feeling Dave near her entrance, Becca shoved herself downward, but faltered. Dave's cock skidded up her slit. Becca whimpered, but stilled. Dave realigned himself, working his tip past the labia before pushing firmly. Certain of his positioning, he pushed with increasing pressure. He felt something give way, and a sharp constriction as he pushed forward a few inches. "Ah!" Becca's scream, the anguish flooding her face and the knife-like pain threatening to chop off his dick brought Dave to an instant halt. He moved to pull out, but Becca's legs tightened around him, and Lupie pushed gently downward on his tailbone. Enough to signal him to hold position. Then Dave remembered, from Janice and the videos, that the first drop of pre-cum, the first encounter, would give a woman an incredible orgasm. His own arousal was swamped by his concern for Becca, leaving him firmly erect, but not leaking anything. For her sake, he had to relax himself. Well, two birds with one stone. Dave lowered his lips to Becca's. She was now lying flat on the bed beneath him, a modest gap between their torsos. Dave kissed her tenderly and she responded. He worked his way down her jawline to nibble on her earlobe. Becca's breathing caught. Dave whispered softly to her, so that not even Lupie could hear. "I'm going to show you all the love I can for the rest of my life Rebecca Sampson. I will prize your heart and your love above the delights of your body. And when I have passed, and you remain, I pray I have left you with joy and peace." Becca sobbed, clutching him close. Dave could feel a tension leave her body. There was even a tinge of joy in her crying. She began to work her hips again, slowly, the act still a delicate one for both of them due to her tightness. Dave matched her motions. With short, slow strokes, each relaxed into the union, and Dave felt his arousal rise. The first drop of precum finally leaked out of the tip of Dave's cock. Becca's body tensed, then bucked beneath him. A wild, weird part of Dave's brain wondered if Lupie had somehow hit her with a taser. "Hah" she cried out. Becca panted, trying to recover from her first ever orgasm. Dave held her gently, kissing first her cheeks, then her forehead. As she calmed, eyes reopened, looking hungry, Dave brought his mouth down to her neck, suckling lightly at her clavicle, without leaving a mark. He kissed his way down the to the slope of her tit. Recalling her earlier uncertainty about their attractiveness, Dave resolved to dispel the worry. He kissed in an inward spiral around her tit before taking her areola into his mouth and flicking her nipple with his tongue. Becca cried out, her back arching off the bed. When she settled, she took Dave's face in her hands and kissed him. "Thank you, David. Now please, finish this." Dave began working himself forward and back, slowly within her. A little more in than out, until he was fully inside her. He could see pleasure and happiness on her face, with some pain as well. He knew he couldn't eliminate the pain, but he was glad she was now getting some pleasure out of it. He kept up his steady pace, pausing if she flinched. As her pain began to subside, he gradually increased his thrusting speed and depth. Becca's legs unclenched from his waist, hanging in the air beside his hips. "Yes, David. More, please more. Keeping going, fill me up David." Her encouragement, her body rocking beneath him in harmony with his thrusting, her interspersed moans sent David over the edge. At the moment he erupted, Becca's eyes flew open and she screamed louder than before. Her whole body spasmed wildly until she collapsed like a marionette with its strings cut. "Imprinting; imprinting; imprinting ;” The oddly disturbing chant juxtaposed with the tight, satisfied grin on her face. Dave gingerly removed himself from her body and climbed off the bed. With Lupie's help, he pulled the sheets and covers from under Becca and then gently covered her. "I'll go wash up. When I come back, can you please tell me what the hell is going on?" Lupie just nodded, biting her upper lip. She followed him to bathroom, where she grabbed a washcloth, wetted it, squeezed out the excess, and went back to the bedroom. Dave followed her out once he had cleaned himself. "Sorry, I didn't mean to snap at you." "I know, David. It was a jarring time for me, and I knew what triggered this." "I would love to share in that knowledge." Lupie grinned at the dry humor. "This morning, after Rebecca and I had completed our Oracle questionnaires, a young woman approached the three of us. She greeted Becca and took her hand to lead her away. Now all three of us assumed we were being taken to you. As Esmeralda and I rose, the lady motioned for us to sit back down. When I inquired when Esme and I would be called, and how long we would be separated from Becca, the lady said she had no idea, and began to walk off again, leading Becca. Becca got upset and asked that we all go together, since we are both to be assigned to the same man. The lady argued with her for a few minutes, then noticed another official heading over. She dropped Becca's hand and took off. Becca was disturbed by the encounter and stayed close to the two of us from then on. We got our shots and returned to the holding area to wait out the medical watch period. A few minutes after our return, a man and woman in uniform took us into a separate room to talk. I think they were officers, but I don't know what part of the army they were in. They had two pistols on their right collar. My right, their left." "Military Police." Lupie looked at him questioningly. "I have a friend who served. He thought branch insignia was one of many useful things to know in a Teot Wawki scenario." "A what?" "The End Of The World As We Know It. He's a prepper & survivalist." Dave's face clouded. "I haven't heard from him in a while, but he doesn't communicate all the time. And yeah, I think this qualifies. Big time. The world is definitely changing in major ways." "Yes, it is. So these two officers questioned us for over an hour about every detail of what happened, going over each minute, each word multiple times. I actually started to think we were accused of something." Lupie slumped against Dave's chest. He wrapped his arms around her. The strange shape of the world and the problems of today did not prevent him experiencing a deep thrill at finally having her in his arms. Lupie. Beautiful, charming, enchanting Lupie. Here. on his bed, in his arms, pouring out her troubles to him. The troubles were concerning, but to be her bastion! Her comfort! Dave's heart raced. Lupie continued. "While we were in there, they seemed mostly focused on the woman's motivation. They keyed off something Becca remembered from the woman. Give me a second; the lady said 'Come with me, you can live a life of luxury, fuck a rich man once or twice a week, pop out a few babies and be waited on hand and foot lounging by a pool. None of his blondes do any work, that's for brunettes and Hispanics.' When Becca kept resisting the lady got real mad; 'do you really wanna go off to some suburban slob, washing dishes and mopping floors, and you'll still have to give him your coochie and pop out babies, you dumb bitch?' " "So they finally let us out. Esme was thirsty and Becca needed to wash her face. Becca went in while I watched Esme at the fountain. Becca had only been inside a few minutes when she shrieked and came screaming out. She said the lady was in there. She came out of one of the stalls as Becca was washing up." Lupie paused. "After that, Becca wouldn't let go of my hand. We were held in another room under guard for a while, while they searched for her again, but eventually they brought us here." Dave added a little extra squeeze to the hug and planted a loving kiss on Lupie's forehead. She looked up at him with a smile. "Do you have any idea how comforting this feels, to be able to tell you about a problem, to be held by you, as you listen?" "I know how amazing it feels to be the one you can share your troubles with. To be the arms you want to be in." Lupie sat up, leaned in and kissed Dave full on the lips. Lips meshed and moved. Tongues darted into mouths, tangling, teasing, frolicking. Hands began to roam. Dave delighted in the thrill of touching Lupie. After all this time. All that yearning. Lupie, here in his arms. Wanting him as much as he wants her. He tugged upward at the base of her shirt, pulling it out of her skirt waistband. Lupie wrapped her arms around his neck. Leaning forward, she arched her back, brushing her tits against him, with a slight side-to-side motion. Even Dave picked up that signal. All systems go for launch. Dave slid his hands under Lupie's shirt, skimming along her back. Her skin. He was touching her bare skin! Her kisses became more urgent. More than ok, his attentions were wanted. Dave brought his hands around front, outside her shirt, and began unbuttoning it. He peeled back her shirt, leaving it still draped from her shoulders, but mostly opened, revealing the center of her bra, and the middle of her tummy. She was in even better shape than Dave imagined. He had assumed all that office work and long hours - and the inevitable takeout food - had left her with a small paunch. But no. There might be enough flesh there to jiggle, but no bulge of any kind. He looked back to her eyes and saw hunger, need,; and uncertainty? Dave flung her shirt off, pressing his lips to hers, pressing her body back to the bed with his own. Lupie moaned, wrapping her arms around his torso, lightly raking her nails along his back, pulling him to her with her palms. Her body moved sinuously beneath him, enticing him. Dave slid one hand down Lupie's skirt-covered leg. To his full extension. He grasped the cloth, pulling it up to reveal her well-toned legs. Office work at her level does include a lot of walking. Her legs were masterpieces of girl next door perfection. Dave lowered himself to kiss her thighs. Lue gasped and groaned. "Oh David, please, don't tease me." She tugged on his head to draw him back. Instead, Dave grabbed hold of her panties and pulled them off in one smooth motion, neither hurried nor slow. Lupie's face brightened. Her smiled widened and lusty. Dave leaned back over Lupie. Her skirt now bunched around her waist, her legs apart. Her lovely brown, shorn lips beckoning him inside. Her inner labia fully flowered, the slightest hint of pink expressing her readiness and desire. Dave lowered himself atop her. He rested his weight on his hands and knees, aligning himself with her entrance while staring deeply into Lupie's eyes. The excitement there was unmistakable. Dave slowly pressed himself forward. Lupie brought her legs back, lifting her pelvis to him and making herself completely open to his penetration. Their mutual arousal already had a bead of precum formed on the end of Dave's organ. When he made contact with her soft petals, Lupie cried out like a banshee, her body shaking uncontrollably. She desperately clutched at Dave's torso, trying to anchor herself. When the shuddering stopped, Lupie gazed into his eyes again, the hunger undiminished. Amplified even. Dave reseated himself and thrust slowly into the woman he'd dreamed of for so long. She shook again, but not the chemically amped orgasm. The raw pleasure of being with together, of finally getting what they both wanted. Their eyes locked to one another, Dave thrust slowly, steadily while Lupie gently moved with him. Their passion built, as did the energy of their movement. Lupie clutched tightly to Dave's shoulders. He could see her pleasure building by the telltales in her expressions. He felt his own excitement building, not decreased in the slightest from having just completed the act with Becca. Lupie's body arched as she called out her ecstasy. The muscles of her passage grasped and massaged Dave's cock, kicking him over the edge as well. A second electric jolt surged through Lupie just as her natural orgasm peaked and began its decline. Her eyes rolled back and a guttural blend of cry and moan issued from deep in her chest. Lupie collapsed to the bed. "Imprinting; imprinting; imprinting" Dave held her in his arms for a long, satisfying moment. Dave did have other duties to attend. There were in fact, two other people still conscious in this house, and one was a newly arrived little girl that may need help adjusting to her new home. Dave slipped from the bed and pulled Lupie up so her head rested on a pillow. Her skirt more or less straightened itself as she moved, but Dave did add a bit of extra care, just to be sure. He pulled a light blanket from the walk-in closet, laying it over the sleeping form of his new partner. He draped her shirt over a nearby chair, where she could see it once she awakened. Then he dressed and headed downstairs. He emerged into the dining room to find Esme happily munching a corn dog, her plate also holding mac n' cheese and green beans. A very self-satisfied Jan sat at the head of the table, at an angle to Esme. "Ah, good you made her dinner." "Yep. OK, I just followed the box directions for the mac n' cheese. And the corn dogs were just heat up from frozen - but I did use the oven, not the microwave!" Jan beamed. Esme cleared her mouth, then, waving, said "Hi, Uncle Dave! Momma says we're living with you from now on? And; Jan helped me put my clothes in the dresser before making me dinner. Oh! And thank you for the kitty!" Seated in the chair beside Esme was a large squish mallow, solid black except for the crescents of its eyes. A cat tail and ears completed the appearance. Its presence at the table suggested the much desired 'new toy' love that Dave hoped would ease Esme's transition. Dave gave Jan a kiss. "You did great, babe. Thanks for looking out." Jan's victorious grin and the glow from Dave's praise did not quite hide her concern over the obvious, but yet unknown explanation of Becca's state upon arrival. Dave shifted his eyes in Esme's direction, then back to Jan and shook his head. "You two want to talk without me, Uncle Dave?" "And just what would we talk about Miss Esmeralda?" "I'm nine, Uncle Dave, not stupid. That lady was spooky, and Mom and Becca were in that room a long time talking with those military people. And then Becca shrieked pretty loud coming out of the bathroom. I may not know everything, but something pretty sketch happened." Dave kissed the crown of Esme's head and held her close to him for a moment. "Don't worry about it, Esme, it's over now. Those people are not going to hurt you, or Becca or your mom." To break the uncomfortable silence, Dave prodded Esme to pick a movie for the three of them. It was getting on into the evening, but there wasn't any school in the morning, so it wouldn't hurt to late her stay up past ten if it came to that. Dave did dishes while Jan led Esme into the living room. Esme needed no help setting things up though. She was nine years old after all. Dave rejoined them to hear 'let the storm rage on ; ' and see Esme, at one end of the couch, her head beginning to nod. Old tricks always work. After a tiring day, a hot meal and an old familiar movie work like magic, even on a nine year old. Dave waited another fifteen minutes for her to zonk out completely, but not get a crick in her neck. He scooped her in his arms and carried her up to her bed. Jan followed them with the fluffy critter. Jan pulled back the covers so Dave could lay Esme in the bed. He pulled off her shoes in socks before covering her gently. Jan placed the newly beloved toy beside her before they left. Once Dave shut the door, Jan shoved him against the wall and kissed him fervently. "You knew that would put her out didn't you?" Dave nodded. "That was so fucking awesomely domestic. My ovaries want to latch on to you and never let go. You obviously care for that little girl, and seeing it makes me giddy. Oh my god, I so want to have babies with you." "Did you just say the unspeakable three words?" "Hush," she said with a giggle, "don't harsh this yummy feeling." "Perish the thought." Dave kissed her tenderly. He took her hand and led her back down to the living room couch. There, he proceeded to fill her in on everything Lupie had told him. Janice's eyes grew wider as the grotesque nature of the attack on Becca unveiled. "Dear God, no wonder the girl was so clingy. I'm surprised she didn't mount you in the entry way." "Well, she's - was - a virgin, so I don't think she would be up for something so public." Dave face must have betrayed his mixed emotions. "What is it?" "I knew she was a virgin, that's something we had already discussed. I had planned on; being; more delicate? In my approach with her, you know, taking my time, not rushing things. But this mess happens, and she's insistent that I take her immediately, no warm-up, no gentleness. I; I wanted to do better for her. I wanted this to be a happy memory for her." "You can't control outside events, David. And you can't control her reactions to them. From the sounds of things, I completely understand her response. I think I would have done largely the same in her shoes. And as someone that's been with you for two full days now," she grinned at Dave's raised eyebrow, "I know you slipped in whatever tenderness, whatever care and concern was possible as you gave her what she asked for. What she needed." Dave sat back, taking a deep breath, trying clear his mind. Jan leaned in, whispering in his ear. "Dave, you big stud." She kissed his cheek. "Take me to bed or lose me forever." Dave barked out a laugh, then stood, reaching out his hand. "Show me the way home honey." Three new women join Dave's family. Chapter 4 – Revelation. September 21, 2020. Dave woke to find Becca curled against his left side and Lupie curled against his right, just as Jan had helped him arrange last night before the two had gone to sleep; and after Jan had gotten her turn at Dave. Jan lay beyond Lupie, on her side, facing away. Dave reached over and stroked her back. "I'm awake." Jan rolled over to face him. She gave him a drowsy smile. "Mostly. I could really use some coffee." "I got a coffee maker, grinder and a bag of whole bean coffee you asked for in the pickup order yesterday." "Yeah, but you forgot the maid to make it and carry it up here." Lupie chimed in. Dave thought he'd heard her breathing change in the last minute. "I know, right?" Jan chuckled. "How do you expect to keep a harem of horny babes if you don't give us the amenities." Feeling playful, he gave her guff right back. "Woman, you are the amenities." He kept his face neutral long enough for Lupie to raise her head and stare back at him. He busted out laughing. "Okay, I'd make a terrible dom." He paused while Lupie delivered a light peck on the lips. "Seriously, I never drank coffee. I have no idea how to make it. I got you the tools and ingredients, so if you want some, have at it." "Fine," Jan said, rising, "but I'm taking one star off my review of this hotel because of this." "Still, the room servicing was amazing." Lupie added, with little wiggle of her nude ass, having gotten out of bed as well. Jan barked a laugh and high-fived her. "We'll get some coffee and breakfast started. Why don't you lie here until Becca wakes? I think waking in your arms will do wonders for her. Might be the capstone to last night that will ease her mind." Both ladies dressed quickly, a pair of shorts from their luggage, and one of Dave's t-shirts. It seems solidarity was the theme of the day. Jan chose "Back in my day we had nine planets" while Lupie chose "That's okay Pluto, I'm not a planet either." Dave couldn't argue with that reasoning, so he lay there holding the pretty young blonde in his arms watching the receding forms of his two; girlfriends? What the hell should he call them? Teammates sounded like something for sports, or the brainchild of a particularly lame poli-sci major. The smell of coffee had whispered through the room for several minutes when the enticing aroma of chorizo warmed the air. Dave smiled. He'd bet anything Jan had mentioned the migas from the other morning and Lupie had found the chorizo he ordered. Becca stirred against him. She stretched, cat-like, arching her back. This had the effect of pressing her tits against him. Which in turn brought his presence to her attention. Her eyes flew open and her arms crossed over her chest, suddenly embarrassed she was naked in bed with a man. Further recognition passed over her face and she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him fiercely. Becca broke from the kiss beaming. Then an impish veil flitted on her face and she slipped her body atop his with a slight wince as she parted her legs to straddle over him. Dave caught her hips. "Easy there, kitten. Give yourself a little break. Smells like breakfast is ready, and we have our wholes lives ahead of us now." Becca kissed him again, slipping her tongue into his mouth briefly, tentatively. Then she hopped out of bed and dug a pair of shorts out of her bag. "Dave, could I wear one of your shirts?" "Seriously? Jan and Lupie did the same. Well, they didn't ask, they just walked into the closet and grabbed one each." Becca flashed him a smile, saying nothing as she strode to the closet. Dave enjoyed the slightest jiggle of her modest tits as her topless form walked by. "They must have coordinated while they were in there because they both came out in Pluto themed shirts." After a minute of hangers being shifted back and forth, Becca called out "Dave, how many Pluto shirts do you have?" "Just the two I think." "Damn." Said Becca, coming back out to the closet doorway, still topless and facing Dave. She leaned against the frame, thinking. Dave enjoyed the view. "Aw, hell." She walked over to her own luggage, rummaged about and pulled out a t-shirt. Once she donned it, Dave red the print on it ' hashtag justice for Pluto'. He laughed. "Nice. It fits with the other two. Why the resignation?" "Because I could either show unity with them by wearing this, or I could wear one of your shirts. First morning together, I would have liked to wear one of your shirts." "That's a big deal?" "Huge." "Then wear one of my shirts. I'm sure the others will understand. In fact, it's still solidarity, because you're all wearing one of my nerd shirts." "I like the way you think, Dave." Becca ripped off the shirt and raced back to the closet. She came out with his shirt that looks like a NASA shirt, but replaces the word NASA with SHINY, and on the swoop is the image of a spaceship from a short-lived TV show. "Madame has impeccable taste." "Mademoiselle. Madame is for married women." "In broader terms, madam is for a woman who has permanently bonded herself to a man. Just as you have. At least until the bio-freaks undo the little oddity in their mad science formula." "Well then," Jan said from just inside the bedroom door, "maybe you could get your hiney dressed and join your other two wives for the breakfast they just finished making." She looked to Becca. "Coffee's ready by the way." Neither woman left, instead taking the chance to watch Dave emerge from the covers and dress. Becca approached Jan tentatively. She did a poor job of whispering "Why does it feel so much bigger inside?" Jan chortled. "Because it is bigger when it's going inside you." Dave replied. Becca blushed, realizing she'd been too loud. "Some of us get 'compact' when there's no need for size." "But your balls are still big." Becca blushed so hard she had to look away to speak. "Yeah, those don't shrink. I guess that's one way to distinguish a winky dink from a grower." Dave came out of the closet with a t-shirt that red 'I aim to misbehave, and nothing in the verse can stop me' curved around the word 'Brown coat'. Becca grinned broadly and returned the high-five he offered before the three of them headed downstairs. "Dave?" Jan prompted "Yes dear?" All three ladies grinned at that jest. "I noticed you don't have any books for younger people. How about we see what Esme has next door, and then I order some more, you know to give her some variety." Lupie brightened at Jan's suggestion. It seems cooperation was coming naturally to the three ladies sharing his bed. Their bed. Ho. He'd been single long enough, now he had to adjust his head. Anyway, it was an auspicious start. The five of them sat around the table, still nibbling at bits of breakfast. Esme was already waiting when the trio had descended the stairs. Esme, Dave, and Becca had thanked Jan and Lupie for making breakfast. Lupie took care to point out Jan had chopped the fruit for the side and sliced the tortillas into strips while Lupie made fresh salsa and chorizo and eggs. "Oh, yeah. Check the closets first. Either in my office, or one of the bedrooms you'll find some boxes of kid's and young adult books." Dave paused for a bite. "I think you already know I'm a prepper. One thing I wanted to be sure of is to preserve knowledge and; cultural legacy maybe? So yeah, there are books in boxes right now too. We could get some more bookshelves and set up say one in each bedroom maybe." Jan looked at him with dopey eyes. "Feeling the same way you did that first morning?" Dave said with a smirk. "Less immediate, more warm and fuzzy version, but yeah." "I'll order more bookshelves then." Dave smiled warmly. "I already ordered two full beds for the two rooms that are completely empty, plus dressers for all four rooms and more sheets and towels. The sheets and towels are scheduled to arrive in a few more days. The furniture is listed as arriving in a week. We'll see." "Hey, Dave?" Becca asked. He'd have to get used to seeing her without glasses. That was probably why her 'after imprint nap' took longer than Lupie's; the regen effect repaired her eyes. She'd instinctively reached for her glasses and abruptly realized she could see better without them. That had earned her a pair of high fives from Dave and Jan before they left the bedroom. Lupie and Esme hugged her when she got downstairs and told them. Dave suppressed a smirk. "Yes dear?" Three pairs of eyes rolled, over top soft smiles. "Why don't you just get a bunch of bunk beds. There's going to be a lot more women coming. At least twelve total." "Yeah sure, I could fit two sets of bunk beds into each room. Then I can just walk down the hallway to the rooms were I 'store' my women to select the day's lays". Dave rolled his eyes to accent the sarcasm. Jan and Becca giggled, but Lupie glared. Then he remembered Esme was at the table. "Uh, yeah, sorry 'bout that. Uh;” "Oh please, I already learned about sex in health class. And I heard both of you last night, mom. Keep busting Dave's chops and I'll tell him what I hear coming from your room when I get up to get a glass of water late at night." Lupie's eyes went wide for a moment, then settled to mom-stern look. "Watch it mija, no matter what you know or think you know, I'm still your mother." Esme turned to Dave. "I hear m---" Dave put a finger to her lips. "No matter what you know or think you know, she's still your mother." September 22, 2020. "David Jeffrey Belsus!" Dave stopped in his tracks, one foot on the last step, the other hanging in mid-air in its path to the living room floor. He looked around bewildered, not sure what he'd done. "What the hell are you doing?!" Lupie's indignant voice managed not to shout, but clearly wanted to. "Uh, laundry." He had a basket on his hip, loaded with sheets from the bed. "I can see that, why are you doing laundry?" "I had sex with three women in my bed last night, these sheets need some cleanin'." Lupie's hand rubbed her face. Dave imagined this might be the same motion when Esme was being difficult. Only, he wasn't trying to and had no idea what was causing all this consternation. "David, there are four other people under this roof who can handle the laundry. Esme is quite good with regular laundry items. Not yet ready for special items. You should be working, or working out, or resting, or dosing one of us, or thinking about what changes might be necessary as more women arrive. We should be doing this sort of thing. This will be even more important as more women join the family, David. You're a manager of a small company that lives together and makes babies. Eventually." "I'm not comfortable labeling a chore as 'women's work' Lupie." Lupie snorted. "A week ago I would agree with you. The world changed." "I'm still cooking. At least sometimes. And If I see something dirty or misplaced, I'm still picking it up. And you still have your investment job. You have things to do beside playing mega housewife." "The firm is shutting down, the accounts are being taken over by another company since all our senior partners died." Lupie grimaced. "I have about a week's worth of work remaining for the hand over, and then I'm out of a job. The new organization didn't hire me. But, I still have my license. I can manage investments for the family." "Or start your own firm. Surely there are clients looking for someone new. Maybe some clients from your old firm that would prefer a familiar face." "I told you before David, I want to make family my focus. I can do some day trading and manage our investments, but I would love to spend time with you and Esme, and now Janice and Becca, and whoever else joins us. I want to do crafts and sew and garden and cook wonderful meals from scratch. I want to be involved in community projects when we have a community again. I was good at my job, but it was a job. I love family. Please, let me, let us take care of these things." Dave mixed drinks for the four of them and brought the glasses into the living room, where the ladies had spread themselves about the space. There was no tension, but everyone seemed to want a bit of space after waking up in a nude pile this morning. Lupie raised one eyebrow when Dave handed a glass to Becca. Dave mouthed the word 'light'. "Are you sure?" Becca asked. "You looked like you wanted one when I mentioned making them. And you're effectively my spouse; one of my spouses; " Dave rolled his eyes at the weirdness of the concept, "and state law allows it under that condi

Send us a textA frosted rim, cranberry ice cubes, and that almond‑sweet finish—our Jollywood Nights Sugar Cookie Martini might be the coziest sip of the season, and it sets the tone for a gift guide that actually understands different kinds of Disney people. We start behind the bar with vanilla vodka, Irish cream, and amaretto, then layer in quick upgrades like peppermint sprinkles so your last sip tastes as good as the first. From there, we get practical about presents and draw clean lines between superfans, the “meh” crowd, and outright haters, because joy is personal and branding tolerance varies.For the diehards, we don't overthink it: ears, pins, lanyards, Spirit Jerseys, and even a preloaded popcorn bucket deliver high delight with park energy. For the fence‑sitters, we go lighter touch—Pluto totes with broad appeal, Mickey shorts on Blu‑ray, and Disney Plus subscriptions that feel like value, not homework. We even map a bridge for skeptics through Star Wars gifts and tasteful barware that nods to Disney without shouting. Then we zoom into personalized picks: a Beach Club stay focused on Storm‑Along Bay and fishing for the relax‑first traveler, a private plaid day for the logistics‑averse planner, a Cars‑themed ornament for the gearhead, and princess rings or commissioned art that tie to a person's story.We wrap with a clear cocktail ranking to guide your party menu and park bar crawl: the Sugar Cookie Martini takes the top spot, followed by a rich Stroopwaffle bourbon coffee for brunch or cold nights. Along the way, we share quick park shopping tips, small‑shop art ideas, and experience‑first gifts like Disney cruises and gift cards that stretch trip budgets. If you want gifts that land, start with the person, connect to their existing loves, and finish with a small flourish—like that peppermint rim that makes your photos pop.Enjoyed the mix of recipes and real‑world gift ideas?

Send us a textWhat if Space Mountain became Santa's fastest delivery route and the Yeti threw on a red suit for the holidays? We grab our Stroopwaffle bourbon coffee and go full Imagineer, sketching Christmas overlays that turn familiar Disney attractions into fresh, festive adventures without losing what fans love most.We start with the big swing: Space Mountain as a sleigh run, sleigh-styled vehicles, rooftop and chimney projections, and upbeat holiday tracks synced to the lift and drops. Pirates gets a winking twist, recasting scenes as family-holiday archetypes—cookie-bearing aunts, the legendary tipsy uncle, a peekaboo “Christmas thief”—anchored by a cheeky “Yo Ho Ho and a Bottle of Nog.” Indiana Jones evolves into Eye of the Forbidden Nutcracker, with March of the Toy Soldiers, chestnuts roasting cameos, flurries in the dart scene, and a Santa-faced boulder barreling to Santa Claus Is Coming to Town.We keep rolling with overlays that feel big but install smart. Autopia turns into a North Pole light drive—snow tires, frosty vistas, and synchronized LEDs that make nighttime laps magical. Country Bear Jamboree needs only the right centerpiece: Big Al crooning Blue Christmas and a snow-kissed finale. Expedition Everest shifts to Expedition North Pole, a serene Winter Wonderland climb that snaps into Sleigh Ride chaos the moment the track ends, starring Disco Santa Yeti. Toy Story Mania goes Krampus Mania with coal shots, rooftop clears, and chipmunk hijinks scored to novelty classics. And for projection perfection, Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway becomes a frantic Christmas Eve: traffic, last-minute shopping, Daisy's party dance, a scramble for Pluto's gift, and a peaceful ride home.If you're into holiday overlays, theme-park music cues, or just want a delicious bourbon coffee recipe, you'll have plenty to steal and debate. Hit follow, share with a Disney-loving friend, and tell us: which attraction needs a Christmas makeover next?

Send us a textBook a reading with Jill: www.jilljardineastrology.comInstagram: Cosmicscenewithjilljardine Astrologer Hilary Harley: www.hilaryharley.comThe sky flips the script in 2026, and you can feel the torque. We move from years of dense earth-and-water drag into the fast lanes of air and fire, where ideas travel farther, tech and transit evolve, and courage becomes a daily practice. With Pluto settling into Aquarius, Neptune and Saturn igniting Aries, and Uranus blasting into Gemini, the first half of the year accelerates timelines and demands clear choices.We walk through the big arcs and the exact dates that matter. January offers a final Capricorn cleanout before an Aquarian influx invites upgrades, collaboration, and bold thinking. February is the crucible: a Leo full moon, an Aquarius new moon solar eclipse, Uranus stationing direct, and Saturn entering Aries—all while Mercury readies a retrograde. The message is not panic, but preparation. Build buffers, double-check logistics, and use grounded rituals to steady your nervous system.March reframes the narrative. A total lunar eclipse across Virgo-Pisces highlights health, healing, and policy, then Jupiter turns direct in Cancer to buoy homes, families, and real estate. The vernal equinox lands as Mercury goes direct, opening a rare all-planets-forward launch window for decisive moves. April restores balance with a Libra full moon and an Aries new moon, then changes gear as Uranus enters Gemini, kicking off seven years of disruption in communication, travel, education, and media. May amplifies the money axis with a powerful Scorpio full moon and Pluto stationing retrograde, revealing what's been concealed in markets and shared resources. Late May's blue moon across Gemini-Sagittarius broadcasts global signals worth heeding.June keeps powder dry until the finale: a Gemini new moon sets ideas in motion, then a Capricorn full moon arrives the same day Mercury turns retrograde and Mars enters Gemini. Travel and tech are spicy—plan with care. The payoff comes quickly as Jupiter strides into Leo, lighting creativity, performance, and generous leadership. Across it all, we emphasize practical strategy: when to launch, when to review, and how to translate cosmic acceleration into sustainable progress.

In Episode 148, astrologers Kristina Martin and Tara Redfield close out 2025 by analyzing the famously spooky and artistic bond between Helena Bonham Carter and Tim Burton through the lens of astrology. Delving into Helena's natal chart, they reveal a sharp Gemini Sun conjunct Mercury in the 8th House—a placement that drives a shadowed intelligence obsessed with the taboo and mysterious. Her Libra Ascendant explains her early "English Rose" public image, while a Leo Moon fuels a passionate, dramatic, and warmth-seeking heart. Tim Burton's chart, meanwhile, features a Gemini Ascendant squared by a Sun-Pluto conjunction in meticulous Virgo, creating a core tension between scattered creativity and obsessive control. With Pluto in the 4th House, his signature dark family fantasy themes emerge clearly. A sextile from Mercury to Neptune elevates his otherworldly imagination, and a Venus-Uranus conjunction sparks his uniquely eccentric aesthetic. Their synastry reveals compelling dynamics: their Sun stelliums square one another, suggesting intense mental battles and ego clashes. A Mars square Pluto adds a layer of ruthless power struggle. Yet, supportive Saturn-Moon aspects provide maturity and a solid foundation for both family and work. Together, their Leo placements amplify shared creativity and flair, while their Gemini synchronicity can make them feel like twins. But with no major Venus-Mars aspect, can their romantic compatibility score truly measure up?

Dr. Jennifer Freed joins host Dr. John W. Price on The Sacred Speaks for a wide-ranging and intimate conversation at the crossroads of psychological astrology, Jungian depth psychology, and lived mysticism. Jennifer shares her personal journey—from early childhood visions and psychedelic experiences, through trauma, therapy, and decades of clinical and spiritual work—to her current understanding of astrology as a living, symbolic map rather than a fixed fate. Together, we explore how the birth chart functions as an invitation into “divine possibilities,” revealing our growth edges, shadow material, and evolving expressions across a lifetime. Our dialogue moves through themes of shadow integration, relational devotion, nervous system regulation, and cultural upheaval, including reflections on Pluto in Aquarius and what this moment asks of humanity. Jennifer offers a sobering yet hopeful vision—one that calls for discernment, humility, and deeper participation in the unfolding mystery of being human. Key Takeaways Astrology as Invitation, Not Determinism The birth chart reveals our cosmic DNA—a range of primitive, adaptive, and evolving expressions—inviting conscious participation rather than passive identification. Shadow Integration and the Nervous System Owning projections and shadow material brings regulation and clarity, helping us think more clearly amid ideological rigidity and identity fixation.

Is the world heading toward chaos, or are we in the middle of a once-in-centuries rebirth? In this expansive and unfiltered conversation, Michael is joined by renowned astrologer and dream expert Dr. Michael Lennox to decode the powerful astrological forces shaping 2026 and beyond. Together, they explore why humanity is experiencing such deep division, why leadership feels unstable, and how these planetary shifts are demanding a profound reckoning, both individually and collectively. Michael Lennox breaks down the rare outer-planet alignments involving Pluto, Uranus, Neptune, and Saturn, explaining how they signal the collapse of old systems, the exposure of long-hidden shadows, and the birth of a new collective consciousness. From the karmic story of the United States to the rise of the Age of Aquarius, this episode offers clarity, context, and hope for navigating an era of accelerated change without falling into fear. Rather than predicting catastrophe, this conversation empowers you with practical guidance on how to stay grounded, regulate your nervous system, and consciously work with these energies to create purpose, creativity, and service during turbulent times. Key Topics: Why 2026 marks one of the most pivotal astrological turning points in modern history. The deeper meaning behind societal division and rising global instability. Pluto's return and what it reveals about the hidden karma of nations. How Uranus, Neptune, and Saturn are reshaping institutions, beliefs, and leadership. The spiritual reason narcissism, power struggles, and "extinction grabs" are intensifying. What the Age of Aquarius really means for humanity's future. How different generations are uniquely affected by these planetary shifts. Practical tools for staying grounded, centered, and sovereign during massive change. Why creativity, service, and spiritual practice are essential right now. How to transform fear into purpose and consciously participate in the rebirth of the world. This episode is not about doom or prediction. It's about understanding the moment we're in, reclaiming your inner authority, and learning how to live with grace, clarity, and courage as humanity moves through one of its greatest evolutionary thresholds.

It's a nostalgia-filled episode this week as Michael Malice (“YOUR WELCOME”) invites his good friend, writer, and author, Lisa De Pasquale, back onto the show to celebrate the release of her brand-new book, The Gen X Handbook for Middle Age. Michael and Lisa talk about how crazy some of the 80s kids shows were, why many of the things loved by Gen X have stood the test of time, how confusing a thumbs up emoji can actually be, and the one thing Boomer's really did wrong, but maybe we can't blame them for it.
