Conversations with the Planets – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Pilgrimage is a profound way to travel in honor of the sacred and liminal. In this podcast episode, astrologers Alicia Cielle Heiser and Lori Kaufman chat with our teacher Jason Holley about a pilgrimage to Greece that he recently organized in which we participated.

We discuss the importance of being in relationship with land, deities, animals and humans to move into generative ways of being rather than relying on extraction. We also dig into the power of myth and give suggestions to listeners for ways to engage in pilgrimage without having to leave your home. Jason has an evocative and poetic way of describing things and we think you'll really enjoy this episode with him!

Jason also mentioned Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer which is one of Alicia's absolute favorite books.

Just like staying at your buddy's place can be nicer than staying in a rental hosted by a stranger, having planets in mutual reception with each other can provide support and resourcing that can strengthen the condition of a planet.

In this podcast episode, astrologers Alicia Cielle Heiser @aliciacielle and Lori Kaufman @lorik_127 discuss mutual reception in a birth chart. We go over how to identify and interpret planets in mutual reception. We also discuss the nuance of whether mutual reception counts if the planets are in aversion to each other.

NOTE: Alicia was thinking on the fly in this episode trying to come up with an example of two exalted planets being in mutual reception. She used the Sun in Aries and Mars in Capricorn as an example, which is NOT a form of mutual reception as Mars in Capricorn is not in the sign ruled by the Sun (Leo). In fact, it is impossible to have two exalted planets in mutual reception, which is why Alicia couldn't think of an example off the cuff in the episode...

The myth of Cassandra is a powerful allegory for the importance of listening to and believing women and the consequences that can come when we don't. Taylor Swift's latest album includes a song titled "Cassandra" that provides opportunity to reflect on how this ancient myth is still sadly relevant in modern life.

In this podcast episode, astrologers Alicia Cielle Heiser and Lori Kaufman review Cassandra's mythology and discuss the ways that this ancient being can show up in the birth chart.

This episode builds on material we discussed in our ⁠Asteroids 101 episode⁠ and is part of a series of asteroid stories episodes. Please also check out our Asteroid Underworld Stories episode, as well as our episodes about Philomela, Icarus, Rhea and Chariklo.

Astrologically, asteroids that are placed prominently in our birth charts serve as beacons to the mythic stories we embody in our lifetimes. In this podcast episode, astrologers Lori Kaufman and Alicia Cielle Heiser discuss the mythology of Rhea (Kronos's wife) and Chariklo (Chiron's wife).

While their husbands are more well-know, these two powerful women add depth and dimension to ancient stories that continue to play out in our modern lives. We also take a tangent to talk about the impact of dark houses in the birth chart, a topic that both Lori and Alicia are intimately familiar with through their own birth charts.

This episode builds on material we discussed in our ⁠Asteroids 101 episode⁠. Be sure to listen the ⁠Asteroids 101 episode⁠ first if you'd like a primer on what asteroids are and how to look up and interpret asteroids in an astrology chart.

Were you born during the day or night? This simple distinction can have a big influence on how your birth chart and life unfold. Do you embody a more solar or lunar way of being, and how does that show up in your life? Is Jupiter your greatest helper, or do you vibe more to the rhythms of Venus? Sect is a central technique in ancient Hellenistic astrology and a very simple approach that you can start integrating into your astrological toolkit right now.

How to determine the sect of your birth chart: first, find the ascendant - this is where the horizon was when you were born. Then, look for the Sun in your birth chart. If it is above the horizon, you have a day chart and the Sun was visible when you were born. If the Sun is below the ascendant/descendant axis then you have a night chart.

• Day sect planets: Sun, Jupiter, Saturn
• Night sect planets: Moon, Venus, Mars

Sharing stories is a powerful way to bring the magic of the asteroids to life. In this episode, astrologers Hannah Piper Burns, Lori Kaufman and Alicia Heiser talk about the mythic story of Icarus.

One of the most impactful ways to work with asteroids astrologically is to use them to determine which mythic stories you embody in your lifetime. Storytelling can be a deeply healing experience that connects us backwards and forwards across time through the lineage of oral tradition.

In this episode, astrologer Hannah Piper Burns talks about the mythic story of Philomela who weaves the grief of her tragedy into a tapestry. The story of Philomela can be captured through tracking her asteroid in an astrological chart. Philomela is a powerful being who can prompt us to speak the unspeakable and transform tragedy into beauty.
