This week we welcome, William Winters, Rebecca Ferrar, and Tyson Adams to talk about their various experiences with cults or cult-like communities with a special focus on the One Taste community. Tyson Adams is an integrated men's work practitioner and happens to have done a lot of searches around cults after having his own experiences in different communities. You may also remember @tysonadams_ as a returning guest from Episode 55. William Winters is the founder of the Bonobo Tribe, @bonobotribe on IG, a sex-positive community that throws parties, teaches workshops, and offers general resources to poly people. And Rebecca Farrar is a well-known astrologer better known on IG as @wildwitchofthewest, who also participated in the One Taste courses. She is still integrating and understanding what she took away from her experience there. Together we spend an hour dissecting our own experiences, yes, even I have my own experiences with the One Taste community and chat about a variety of things related to One Taste and cults at large. This includes the differences between cults and communities, our natural desire to belong, how to spot a cult, the sense of language or jargon these communities often have, and what it means if you leave the group and ultimately are forced to abandon the community you've learned to lean on. If cults, the brainwashing used by nefarious leaders, and how people become drawn to and eventually a part of cults is something that interests you, make sure you check out our episode when it comes out tomorrow.
As the summer comes to a close, many of us are starting to plan and map out our brand new school year. How we set up our day-to-day teaching environment can greatly affect our outcomes of success. Rebecca Farrar, a director from Plano, TX, sits down with us to discuss the various ways in which she organizes her orchestra program to maximize student focus and learning.
Solstice, eclipse season, Mercury retrograde, Saturn and Jupiter—there's a lot going on in the cosmos this summer and Rebecca Farrar, Wild Witch of the West has the rundown to help us keep our sanity.The dynamic this eclipse season is between emotional Cancer and structured Capricorn. This opposing energy is helping us make more sense of our emotions and ask for what we need rather than throw a tantrum and cry for a day. We are also being guided to sit with our emotions and shadows rather than distract ourselves with more entertaining activities.The cosmos are forever in our favor, however, so no need to be scared of any of this. And Rebecca's expert and compassionate advice will help us all through. We are building up to a major shift in 2020, so press play and buckle up.Learn more about Rebecca and work with her 1:1: https://www.wildwitchwest.comLearn more about Arizona and Morgan (and the million things we have going on): https://spiritguidesmagazine.com

"For me, astrology is about enchantment...When I am looking at someone's birth chart, I am looking at their soul's patterning. I am looking at the moment they were born and the heavens froze, and this special moment becomes someone's soul process." "It tells me about their evolution as a soul, it tells me about where their challenges are, what their relational patterns are, how they can self-soothe with their emotions, how they can take care of themselves better. It gives a sense of enchantment with the self, letting you understand you are a part of this huge cosmic thing and you have an important role to play..." There is a very specific reason you are here. Consciousness is shifting so quickly at this time and you are needed... In this episode you'll discover: What is the sun, moon and rising sign and what do they mean about yourself?

In her dark night of the soul, Rebecca was living in her parents’ basement, feeling numb. She realized she no longer found enchantment in anything. She sought out the services of an astrologer, who confirmed she was still on track. Rebecca discusses the process of sitting with discomfort and trusting her process. She applies what she learned to ongoing challenges. Rebecca quit her job and joined an ashram where she explored her relationship to something bigger than herself for several months. This started her on the path of finding her own process of connecting both with herself and with the collective. There, she discovered her earth based, feminine being. This led her to understanding her practice called her elsewhere. Q & A What was the number one thing that was holding you back from accepting self love? Accepting and being authentic of all my weirdness and wackiness. Who is one person who has changed your life for the better? My friend Julie, she inspires me a lot. Her depth of process is really beautiful to me. What is the best advice you have ever received? “Your soul knows when it’s time to move on.” Oprah Winfrey. What is a self care habit that you practice regularly? Playing chase with my cat. Do you have a favorite quote? “Until you make the unconscious, conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” Carl Jung. Can you share with us a resource or an app that we can use to help our own self care practice grow? Marco Polo is an app where I can send a quick video to my friends to just say “Hi.” What book are you reading right now? Women’s Mysteries: Ancient and Modern, by M. Esther Harding. What is the one thing that you are most passionate about? I love looking at relational astrology – how two charts come together and really light up each other.
