In this Dark Moon download, Britten reflects on the lunar cycle that began at the New Moon in Libra and is now completing just before the New Moon in Scorpio on November 20th. She explores the archetype of the ferryman, a figure who guides travelers across waters to unknown shores, and how this image has appeared repeatedly in her tarot readings as the Six of Swords, revealing her role as a guide and container-holder.

 

Topics She Covers:

• The Six of Swords and Six of Cups: being a ferryman who guides people to unknown shores and a fountain of resources for transformation

• Trust as the currency (aka: the coin that allows passage on the boat) and why transformational containers require serious trust for alchemy to happen

• Teaching the ferryman song from her daughters' Swedish immersion camp and how the zodiac transmissions are the essential songs she sings in Living Emergence

• The Nine Boredoms of the Rightful Baddie as nine forms of permission inspired by the Vasilisa fairy tale and the journey to meet Baba Yaga

• How grief is essential to giving yourself permission, and why growing up means becoming bored with consensus reality's illusions

• Creating delusional spaces for delusional dreams, where the circle of animals (the zodiac) helps us see parts of ourselves that want our attention

 

Britten emphasizes that her work is about supporting you in trusting your capacity to be creators for this world. To show up more loudly, clearly, and magnificently in your unique creativity. Living Emergence is designed as a living, breathing world held by the wheel of the year, where you can stay for as long as it's nourishing you, moving through all twelve signs in a cyclical process of revelation and transformation.

In this conversation, Britten welcomes Xenia Viray, imagination healer, frequency artist, and creativity catalyst, to explore the mysterious interstellar visitor known as 3I/Atlas, a comet (or interstellar object) that has been traveling through space for potentially 10 billion years before entering our solar system. Together, they dive into what it means to connect with cosmic consciousness, the role of love as a doorway to understanding, and why curiosity and discernment are essential tools for navigating our multidimensional reality.

Topics They Cover:

• How Xenia discovered 3I/Atlas and the synchronicities that led to creating her Interstellar Workshop

• What makes 3I/Atlas unique: its trajectory, timing, and alignment with significant astrological moments

• The fear of being labeled "New Age" and why that silences important conversations

• Navigating AI-generated content and the importance of discernment in the information age

• Love as the animating force of the universe and a tool for transmutation

• The difference between hyper-individualism and true individuation within interconnectedness

• Why comets have historically been seen as bringers of new consciousness

• The somatic, visceral experiences people had during the 3I/Atlas meditation

• How shame operates as a force that says "you shouldn't exist" and how love counters that

• The relationship between Earth-based practices and cosmic curiosity

• Imagination healing and reclaiming the genius we were talked out of

Xenia emphasizes that connecting with 3I/Atlas isn't about escaping into the cosmos, it's about recognizing that we are already cosmic beings. The Earth is in constant relationship with the stars, and our bodies are made of the same elements. She invites listeners to approach mystery with curiosity rather than fear, and to trust their own direct experience as a valid form of knowledge.

Xenia Marie Ross Viray (she/they) is an imagination healer, frequency artist, and creativity catalyst. She is the eldest of three sisters, and her name means kindness to strangers. Born as a brick-and-mortar fashion business, Myths of Creation is a container for experiments, art, writing, and gatherings at the intersection of creativity, spirituality, and meaning-making.

In this episode, I go deep with the wonderful Mariola Rosario on the topic of Living Emergence. The third episode in this new series, this conversation is rich, vast, and deeply moving. 

Some of the references from the episode:

Film: Fire of Love (2022)

Essay: Under the Sign of Saturn by Susan Sontag 

Book: Underland by Robert Macfarlane

Poem: Caminante no hay camino by Antonio Machado

Mariola Rosario (she/her) is an artist, astrologer, writer, teacher, and independent researcher from Puerto Rico, currently based in Paris, France. She explores visual and material culture in relation to terrestrial and celestial practices and mythologies, tracing how images, objects, and language shape cultural memory, origins, and political imaginaries. She is committed to co-creating anti-extractive spaces of learning and mutual aid that honor both the magical and the material conditions of our time. Mariola also has a lot of fun writing on Substack, where she shares reflections on myth, art, monstrosity, astrology, politics, and the magic of language. You can subscribe and read her latest here: https://substack.com/@lasfloresdelmal 

Her books are also open for Astrology consultations online and in person, in Paris. https://mariolarosario.com/

Her upcoming course, Chthonic AF: Unearthing Myths of Power, Sacred Rage, and the Monstrous Feminine, runs through Scorpio season. In this course we turn toward the underlands where gaze and voice cut across fear, desire, and resistance. Guided by Medusa and the Sirens, figures of fear and allure, they surface again and again in feminist, queer, and decolonial retellings. We will explore why they are returned to, reclaimed, and reimagined, and why we cannot seem to let them go. We ask what is it that they may be demanding from us now, here in 2025? We will dive into the chthonic and its relationship to monstrosity, ritual, art, astrology, and collective memory. We begin on October 22nd and spend four weeks in the underworld together, through the heart of Scorpio season. All genders, experiences, and learning styles are welcomed. Sign up is open. https://mariolarosario.com/copy-of-chthonic-af-scorpio-season-course-2025

What a glorious honor to spend time with Jo! @joannamiller_healing is one of my favorite feeds in Instagram.

When I saw Jo's recent post on redefining the Boss Babe / Girl Boss archetype to peel back to a more embodied connection to authentic power, I asked her to hop on zoom with me for a M2M conversation on the topic. Thank you for playing with me so last minute, Jo! I love that Aries Moon!

Jo's bio: Jo is from a long line of heart led working class folk in the north of England, she currently resides by the blue green sea along the Kentish coast with her beloved cats. Jo's passion is working with fellow big hearted creatives, visionaries, therapists and coaches to support them peeling back to their true essence free from trauma and shame. Her work is an alchemy of Focalizing, Somatic Experiencing, Healing from Shame, Shadow Constellations, soul work and more. Jo is also part of the Leadership team for the Focalizing Institute and she teaches and mentors other healers internationally in somatic work. Forever the student and a very grateful teacher.

The first is pretty spicy: "Am I in danger of being culty?" I don't mean an actual cult leader of a high control group. I mean a cult of personality who gets pedestalized and has a lot of power in their circles. Lots of these people exist. We all know them. As someone totally new to "having a community," I have grappled with not wanting to be cringy or creepy or gross or toxic... while still unshaming the enjoyment in having impact so that it's not a weird desire that hides from me. I thoughts on this, and I find them meaningful.

Second question: "What if I am full of shit?" lol this is a series question.

Third: What would it be like to not fragment parts of who I am in different space? How can I be all that I am all the time?"

Fourth and final: "How would I invest in myself if I fully saw the power of the offerings?"

Throughout I offer different variations on the questions to support you in making them your own. Please take what resonates and leave the rest, as always.

Let me know how these landed for you. Enjoy!

It's been 100 episodes since "Fear is Not the Frequency" came out on March 15, 2020. The whole experience reflects a practice I call "Here I Am," which I started doing for myself to soften my trauma responses on "keeping it all together."

In times of heightened grief, rage, and paradigm shifts, the "Here I Am" feels incredibly supportive, even radical.

This is a yummy one, I can tell. Enjoy!

Jonathan Koe is a beloved and welcome guest at Moon to Moon. Not only is Jonathan M2M's most featured guest, they created the podcast music! Many of you already know Jonathan as my teaching collaborator. Perhaps you found me through them! From January 2021 until just recently, we have worked on back to back projects together.

When Jonathan announced their first offering as a solo space holder, I could feel the potency of their connection to this offering in my bones, and I wanted to get a taste of it here with you on M2M. The topic is Mars, and Mars always creates a spicy space of honesty. I'm here for it! THIS IS A DIRECTNESS PRACTICE! (See ep 76.) THE ENERGY'S GOT TO GO SOMEWHERE! (See ep. 10.)

If you listen to M2M regularly you know I'm obsessed with promo as a magical time, a window of web weaving and deep listening and inspiration. This conversation is not only a portal to Mars wisdom, it's also a picture of what it's like to be a mystic and artist creating containers for healing, personal gnosis, and wonder to come through.

Feeling into how the frequency of The Fool can support us in moments and life experiences that feel uncomfortable, clenched, and don't-like.

The Fives in the tarot are known as "hard cards" in the sense that they feel like scarcity in the body. In this episode, I share how The Fool guides me toward the Sixes (more easeful, likable energies), and helps me trust in discomfort as part of my aliveness.

We can never know what's next in the story.

This iteration of the Living the F**k Out of Your Chart series dropped into a profound space, more like a reading than a conversation.

Samar Jade is a Capricorn Rising, Capricorn Sun, and Cancer Moon, with Mars conjunct Pluto (and South Node!) in Scorpio. That's a powerful invitation.

As in all LTFOOYC explorations, what we're going for here is an opportunity to draw up connections between the chart's data and the felt experience of a human being. It's always an honor and a privilege to hold that level of intimacy, and it's also a lot of fun. Whether you're a chart lover or brand new to astrology, you will find resonances here to open your heart, lift your spirit, and delight your mind.

Samar is the 13th Reader in a new iteration of The Magician's Table coming this fall known as The Vulture Coven. I am excited to share their voice and stories here on Moon to Moon. Book a reading with Samar and/or follow them on Instagram if you resonate with their frequency.

Check out the course page for the Vulture Coven. I start reviewing applications on September 15 in the order received.

In this episode, I share about the Moon in astrology and in the chart. I share an old saying I wrote in my journal once: Show me your Moon and I'll show you your story for safety. I don't actually do it like that in the reading space, but I do connect the Moon placement to stories, habits, patterns, and needs for safety and security, for love and validation. These are pretty important motivators, which are often under the surface of our awareness because they are so tied to the past.

Enjoy! Let me know if you have any questions.

In this episode, my longtime friend and collaborator Jonathan Koe and I discuss what Living Emergence feels like to us today. We weave energy healing, human design, astrology, creativity, and being human to bring you into this field with us. It's so fun to play here! You do not need to know the languages of human design or astrology to get into this episode. Just follow the feeling.  

Jonathan is an astrologer, mystical mentor, energy worker, creation guide, and musician. Jonathan supports mystics in making their art, artists in embracing the mystery, and entrepreneurs in translating their visions. 

True to their Virgo rising and Gemini Moon path, Jonathan is a huge nerd with two masters degrees – one in music and another in economics. A Pisces Sun at heart, Jonathan is happiest when he's helping clients and students realize their own truth and when he's in the flow state making music for pure enjoyment.

I've been wanting to talk about the word Witch for a long time time now. It's a word that is not neutral. This is a word that knows violence. This is a word that knows silencing. This is a word that knows projection. It's a slippery word one that resists description, definition, and even etymology. It belongs to the realm of the unlanguable: to mystery, to intuition, to magic.

I wanted to have this conversation in my podcast because it might be safer for folks to get close to it if they don't have to put their name or their money down to engage with it. My desire is to do any small bit of clearing distortion that I can.

To help me in my dream for this episode, I invited 6 individuals who I knew would offer words on Witch as unique as they are. Thank you to each, who you hear in this order:

~ Mariola Rosario (she/her): astrologer, artist, teacher, and witch

~ Rebecca Padgett (she/her): artist, mystic, and medium

~ Jonathan Koe (they/he): artist, mystic, and astrologer

~ Samar Jade (they/them): magical academic, seer, writer, and ensoulment doula

~ Lisa Quigley (she/her): alien cyborg glitch witch

~ Matt Bull (he/him): writer, artist, dad, lover

I am wildly grateful for your these profound testimonies to the word Witch.

What comes together here feels very magical to me, and I hope it does for you too. Let me know if you have any questions, thoughts, confusions, or shares!

Welcome to this magical conversation with my friend and collaborator Rebecca Padgett. Rebecca is an artist, astrologer, psychic, and medium who is co-facilitating my upcoming course Moon to Moon. We talk about intuition, embracing uncertainty, and learning to trust in cycles, including death.

From September 11 - November 20, our upcoming course Moon to Moon is a 9-week transformational intensive to deprogram from harmful conditioning, unlearn patterns of self-abandonment, repair from repeated breaches in self-trust, protect the present moment from your inner child's fear of it, and become unwavering to your truth in the face of invalidation. Rebecca will be leading the 6 Wednesday meetups, which will focus on skills building and practices for dilating access to your intuition and psychic awareness.

CHECK OUT THE COURSE PAGE. The last for Early Bird pricing is Monday August 28.

Rebecca Padgett is an artist and mystic, who lives in rural Ontario, Canada.  Rebecca's passion is to help guide people to develop their own intuitive and psychic abilities. She uses a range of tools, from astrology, tarot, and reiki, to psychism and mediumship, working with spirit guides and her intuition to support clients on their path through life's changes and challenges. She is also intensely interested in exploring the area where intuition and creativity meet, be it through intuitive abstract painting or her current work exploring ancestors through found objects and collage. Rebecca enjoys working with the cycles of the seasons, animals, and the night sky, and living in the wide-open, rural landscape, which quiets and expands her mind, allowing her work to grow and change in harmony with the cyclical nature of the world around her.

Rebecca mentioned in this episode: Sarah Faith Gottesdiener, Kay Taylor, and Mary Grisey.

I mentioned: The Magician's Table, my Moon to Moon workbook, and the Spolia Tarot.

I bring you this episode in honor of Venus Retrograde in Leo from July 22 to September 3, 2023.

The first part of the episode is a conversation with my boyfriend Matt Bull. The last Venus Retrograde literally broke us, and then Venus walked with us through a radical repair process that has been nurturing our love since. We talk about the ways mystical "bullshit" has supported us as individuals and as a couple.

The most bullshit framework of all helped us the most: Twin Flames. It's deeply embarrassing to admit, but it's true. By fully committing to exploring the responsibility of being twin flames, we nurtured repair and healed in ways I don't know we would have experienced if we hadn't been willing to play with the possibility.

Matt has come on Moon to Moon before, and I encourage everyone to check out our first conversation "Coincidence as a Practice," which we reference often. In that episode, we talk about religious trauma, UFOs, and how embracing coincidence yields more magical, mystical living. It's my 3rd most popular episode ever. I trust you'll enjoy it.

The second part of today's episode (the last 25 minutes or so) is a solo segment where I talk about Venus retrogrades in general and about this one in Leo specifically. I share dates and suggestions for walking through this experience to receive the loving updates Venus wants to offer you.

Welcome to another dark moon download.

I have found it to be true that expanding who we are out in the world has a to do with expanding our capacity to be with what comes up in our inner world as we face the evidence of our lives. From an emotional perspective, most evidence is "failure," and a lot of the reason we hold back or "stay small" has to do with protecting ourselves from evidence we don't want to see. So to become a person of evidence means to become someone with the courage and self-trust to be with whatever comes up in the present moment.

In this dark moon episode, I share how this idea of becoming a person of evidence has been growing in my life as I've been relating it to both the presence of Taurus and the paradox of Gemini.

The title of this new series is inspired by Rainer Maria Rilke's passage from Letters to a Young Poet: "Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer."

In this new M2M series, which will be monthly or every other month, I want to respond to the questions on your heart that you must ask - not the questions you should ask, or even the ones you want to ask. You know it's a question that you must ask because it sings from your heart. In the asking, you begin to live your way into the answer. The point is not to hear what I have to say about it as much as to speak your question, trusting that if it's a question you must ask, then it's also a question that is in some way bigger than yourself. These are questions than live in other bodies, too. And so let's share them together, each of us responding to them and living them in our own weird ways.

I share what I am learning and living from the questions, but not to give answers that solve problems or tie things with a bow. I can only answer emergently from the present moment, trusting that my personal truth in the question will light something up in the listener.

In this 1st episode, I share 5 questions that I have recently been asked. Moving forward, I invite you to share your question here and I may or may not share yours in an upcoming episode. Know that it's in the speaking your question that you will feel a shift, not from my response.

The 5 questions:

- What has been your experience emerging as an astrologer with your daughters? Have they ever resented you or shown disapproval?

- How do you bring your thoughts into the physical form so they can be communicated and be helpful and be guideposts and spells for other people through the written word?

- How can we discern between the "wild twin" and self-destruction?

- How do you navigate feelings of being an imposter or feeling not healed enough to hold space for others?

- How do you do all the things you do? What are the practical and logistical as well as the mystical and intangible factors that support you in being someone who holds so much?

I hope you enjoy Living the Questions as much as I enjoyed creating it!

If you haven't left a review or rating, I would be so grateful if you would take a moment to offer one.

I saw that Nick was constellating a virtual conference this June 4-28 called Meet Me at The Margin and I felt an immediate impulse to have them come on Moon to Moon to talk about it. My dream is for this experience to find its way to those who long for it.

Meet Me at The Margin is a month-long virtual conference for queer people who want to reclaim and re-story their innate capacity for ambiguity, paradox, and liminality. Through a series of eight workshops facilitated by some of today's most Marginal thinkers, participants explore queerness through the lenses of tarot, astrology, narrative therapy, eco-mythology, archetype, art, and more.

In addition to offering readings, Nick teaches tarot extensively throughout the year.

This episode is a transmission without a plan. It was clear that my guidance wanted me to just trust in the unfolding, like floating down a river and reporting what I see.

I invite the listener to participate in congealing what comes through into a theme that resonates.

In the episode, I share the name of the wonderful tarot reader and human Mallory Dowd. I highly recommend booking with Mallory!

"I realize now that I came to astrology to heal shame, though I didn't know that at the time. I had never really put the word shame on my experience. But I now see that shame was the baseline of my personality. I had an apology for my existence somewhere in any conversation, any project, any situation.

Whether it was the perceived too-gruesome parts of me I was apologizing for, or even for the perceived too-perfect parts of me. I just wanted to apologize to everyone. "I'm sorry I exist." But back then I didn't know that what I was swimming in was a sea of shame.

It feels really foreign to me to talk about that now. It's not that I don't have shame that I notice. It's just that now I notice it because I'm not so immersed in it that I can't even see it. I tap on new layers of it all the time. And I know what to do to help myself and to resource myself.

What I see in working with other people is that shame is the thing that's always present. Shame is the thing we're all carrying around. Whether we think that word is something we associate with or not. Maybe you call it the inner critic. Maybe you call it self-sabotage. Maybe you're attached to the word guilt or regret or self-mistrust. To me, it's all a shame problem."

For astrology to be helpful, it has to help us with shame, because we cannot vision exciting futures when we see life through a shame lens. Unshaming the Signs is a framework for calling in this approach to speaking astrology. It's a healing-focused approach to astrology.

I hope you enjoy it and find it helpful. Let me know what you think!

My current musings, questions, invitations, and contemplations on Saturn and/in Pisces.

So much to say here as these are arguably two of my favorite archetypes in all of astrology. This won't be the last time I discuss Saturn in Pisces on Moon to Moon, but it's the first.

If the episode and/or M2M speaks to you, I would be so excited to receive your review. Thank you.

Work with me one-on-one and explore Saturn in Pisces in your chart.

This is a deeply meaningful episode for me. My guests are Rebecca Padgett and Bridget Scanlon, two women I've known for several years now. Listeners, give yourself some space for this one! It's deep and slow and rich and wise. The best kind of M2M! It's my hope that you find something supportive to you here for your shadow work path. 

You may remember Rebecca (she/her) from episode 69 titled "This Is Who I Am Now" Emerging as a Mystic with Rebecca Padgett." Rebecca is a mystic, artist, and oracle devoted to the unseen world, living in an old farm house in Ontario, Canada. Rebecca is the 13th Reader for this year The Magician's Table.  

Bridget (she/her) has also been on M2M before in the episode 64 "Astrology as a Community Constellator." Bridget is a mystic and an astrologer living in New York City. 

Thank you both for bringing your wisdom to M2M. It's such an honor to know you. Excited to share this conversation for my birthday weekend!

In this solo show, I share what's been coming through as the core teaching from across the past lunar cycle. 

Topics include: 

- the Aquarius invitation to separate enough from others people to hear our own unique frequency 

- how connecting to your frequency is a responsibility to both yourself and to the collective 

- how your refusal to be standardized isn't personal, though it may feel like that to people who want to tell you who you should be

- how participating in your unique frequency may be triggering to others but it's not your job to be palatable or understandable to everyone 

- how participating is a surrendering to your being nature, and how this is vulnerable 

- how we might not feel ready to participate because of that vulnerability but the desire to connect with our assignment wants us to do it anyway 

- how our frequency is powered by the core striving of our spirit, and how crucial it is to understand that striving 

After moving through the insights, I share what's been coming up in my world because these are the factors contributing to the insights. These include: 

- getting my edits back from the publisher, which disrupted my long-held narrative that institutions won't get me or support my frequency 

- Mars direct enactments 

- what I'm learning about healing in my course Astrology as Praxis 

- what I'm learning about promo from The Magician's Table 

- facing my fear of "not readiness" and practicing psychic offerings 

- honoring a year ago when Matt and I broke up for a week and then totally renewed our contract

I sincerely hope this episode will be helpful and resonant to those it magnetizes. 

If you enjoy the episode, let me know! I would love to receive your 5-star rating and review. Thank you so much to those who've already given one!

This is a topic that continues to teach and humble me. It's so potent, juicy, and rich. It's also very healing. 

The truth of it comes down to vulnerability. Being witnessed and being a witness are both deeply vulnerable experiences. As I share, the root of vulnerable come from "to wound," such that vulnerability means our capacity to be wounded. What does it mean to be openly seen as capable of being wounded and to still show up anyway with your magical gifts in service to others? This is what I most care about. 

My guests for this conversation are the very magical Cole, Jaclyn, Mary, and Kelsey. Their full bios are named in the intro. Here are their short bios:

- Cole (she/her) is a word weaver, tarot traveler, and magic maker. You can follow her on IG at @rosiecolereads.  

- Jaclyn Skeans (she/her) is an avid list maker (Virgo Rising), lover of all things magical (Pisces Sun), and always curious about how you're really doing (Scorpio Moon). She believes in the power of having a dream and doing the work to bring that dream down to reality. You can follow her at www.thePeachBungalow.com or on IG @thePeachBungalow. 

- Mary Schuch (she/her) is committed to showing up for the experience of belonging in a human body. In this lifetime, Mary is steadily walking a resonant path and striving to remember the inherent relationality of all beings. Follow her on IG @maryschuch and at her podcast My Life is Better with You In It. 

- Kelsey Brooks (she/her) is a Libra Sun, Aquarius Moon, Libra Rising. She is dedicated to the path that brings her back home to herself, no matter how many shifts in direction, how far away it may stray or even crumble completely. Reach out to Kelsey via email at reverie.lane4@gmail.com. 

Throughout our conversation, we talk about the experiential learning container I steward known as The Magician's Table. If you are resonating with the experience and want to explore joining this year's cohorts, please check out the course page and mind the dates.

I recorded this episode at the exact hour of my Saturn Opposition. In this episode, I honor Saturn and Venus both, who have been guiding me to see how support - seen and unseen - is more available than we know. 

In this episode, I talk about

- what it means to be a steward of one's creative offerings 

- how to listen to constriction in the body and let it tell you what it's story is so you can act in the world from a re-patterned place 

- Venus-Saturn dynamics 

- The Magician card 

- what it means to be "in" your channel 

- how being deeply aligned with your unique channel creates new collective futures (Leo-Aquarius) 

The Magician's Table is a life-changing, 3-month community container for getting intimate with your personal magic and how you share it with others. It's one of my core offerings, now in its 3rd iteration. 

"The Magician's Table is much more than just a course. It's a journey, and a rite of passage for those wanting not only to develop their skills in readership, but to deepen the connection between their personal practice and their presence in connection and community. I cannot recommend TMT highly enough if you feel you are on the threshold of transformation and are ready to see new possibilities for yourself in your path as a reader and magic-maker!" - Art Heals Earth creator Megan Reich, Minnesota

Applications are now open! APPLY HERE 

Check out the course page to learn details and feel into the resonance of the energetics. Lots more on TMT in the month to come here on M2M. There will of course be a slew of incendiary posts (lol) on Instagram, and then my newsletter will lay out a lot of what you need to know as inspiration comes to me. 

I call my promotional periods Promo Magic because I see promo as an opportunity to dance wildly inside the heat of my passion of an offering. I want you to feel like you're learning and transforming from the promo whether or not you have any intention of signing up for something I am selling. I love love love promo. It's such a zingy and alive and liminal space for me. I hope you feel it and find something catalyzing and inspiring for your creative life.

Scorpio season kicks off today and I am dropping this special episode with Scorpio Sun Chelsea Wolfe to honor the day. 

Chelsea Wolfe is a singer-songwriter from Northern California who has spent the last 13 years touring the world with her eponymous band, and releasing albums that range from the intimacy of acoustic folk all the way to sludge metal. Wolfe's music has been featured in film and TV episodes and trailers such as Game of Thrones and American Horror Story, and in 2021 she composed her first movie score in collaboration with Tyler Bates for the A24 film "X."

Her approach to recording can be experimental, yet her works are tied together in rich textures and the haunting melodies of her unique voice and writing style, inspired by the depths of the realm of sleep and dreams, and digging into the heaviness of this world to find its strange beauty.

Thank you, Chelsea, for sharing yourself with me and with Moon to Moon. What a treasure you are! 

In the intro, I talk about Vulture Magic to folks new to the framework, since it's one of my teachings that's been resonant and helpful for Chelsea and ended up being such a big part of our conversation. 

As I share, VM for me has to do with the Taurus-Scorpio axis in each of us, and here we are right before the Scorpio-Taurus eclipses 10/25 and 11/8.

Vulture Magic was introduced in Episode 28.

In this episode, Britten introduces a new series called Living Emergence. 

Living Emergence is a subjective question. Each episode in the series will feature a conversation on what it feels like to be living emergence. 

The guest for the inaugural conversation in the series is Natasha Levinger, Britten's dear friend, healer, mentor, and co-host on Crystal Ballers. 

Here we explore a key teaching of intuitive healing, which is to be "in present time."

Natasha Levinger is a therapeutic intuitive, energy healer, and author of the book, Healing Your Inner Child: Reparenting Yourself for a More Secure and Loving Life. She spends much of her time deep diving into all aspects of spiritual and emotional healing in the search to uncover patterns that stop us from being all that we are. Sharing those discoveries with others to help them feel free and fulfilled is her passion and life's work. 

Follow Natasha on Instagram and TikTok. Learn about her community, You Are the Oracle.

The 8th House is a zone of the self and the chart that is endlessly fascinating, compelling, and zingy for me. Associated with a hodgepodge of seemingly disparate topics over the centuries - taxes, shared resources, death, trauma, intense bonding, the occult, sexual obsessions and compulsions, and mysteries. What unites these is that none are topics we're likely to get into over a casual lunch with someone we don't know well. They represent what is hidden, taboo, and repressed in a culture. And we all have an 8th House. 

Both my one-on-one containers and my live community spaces tend to be very 8th House. By tapping into the hidden, we bring forth the unconscious for healing, integration, and ultimately transformation. 

I invited my friend Erin Kelley to come talk about the 8th House because Erin is someone with a significant 8th House assignment: she has Sun & Moon in Libra in the 8th. Depending on the house system she chooses, she has multiple other planets as well. 

I tend to be very attracted to people with 8th House invitations. They go through a lot of Life-Death-Life cycles and have to continually reinvent themselves and grow stronger every round. This is a quality I respect. My oldest daughter is a Sun-Moon plus 3 other planets 8th House child. Loving and caring for her increases my passion for this realm of astrology. 

I hope you enjoy this topical focus on a single house - my first time to do this on Moon to Moon!   

Erin Kelley is an astrologer and intuitive who loves finding beauty and joy in the most unexpected places. A former kundalini yoga and meditation teacher, full spectrum birth worker, and consultative strategist, she believes the book of knowledge is never truly written and has an insatiable curiosity which is continually calling her to adventure and leading her down a number of paths. Erin has studied the nature of invisible things throughout her life and in 2020, she began working on the concept of Slow Magick, which is the practice of slowing down and stepping into sacred time, to deeply connect with Nature and the Land to relax, restore, and reveal the natural self. When not ensconced in enthusiastic communion and conversation with the otherworld realms, you can find Erin and on the internet at https://slowmagick.com. Follow her on Instagram. 

Her contribution to my upcoming offering Cave Space is titled: "Life After the 8th House: Healing, miracles, and other riches of the unseen realms." Her pre-recorded lecture discusses strategies and practices for working with the "mysterious dark" as an ongoing practice utilizing one's natal chart as a catalyst for co-creation of one's desires.

Learn about Cave Space! 

Upon registration, there's a spot to input your mailing address for your Living the Signs: Scorpio workbook. And if you're one of the first 30 people to register, you receive a free bonus gift: an herbal ritual oil inspire by Pluto and Scorpio from the Witches for Bernie apothecary! 

The first live session is Wednesday, October 26. There are four total live sessions and the rest is all pre-recorded for you to engage with at your own pace. All recordings will be available in the course site if you can't make it or you find this offering after the lives are complete.

Reframing my struggles with astrology has helped me not only re-commit to living here but to do so with wild aliveness, authenticity, and joyful presence. This is because astrology is a magical language: the words are more than new vocabulary terms. 

Astrology provides codes for accessing technologies for speaking magic, for healing, and for dreaming the emergence of new timelines for ourselves and for our world. 

In this episode, I share how on the side of portal of the magical word Scorpio, we open into a realm for healing our relationship to the unconscious, to trauma, to buried memories, and to the dead. 

You'll find here: 

- a study of the ancient Sumerian myth "The Descent of Inanna" - the precursor to the myth of Persephone 

- a look at ways modern psychoanalysis has shaped our understanding astrology and myth, and what this has to do with emergence

- a discussion of the 8th House in astrology as our closet and our underground, which tends to open up for us the deeper we go in our enmeshed relationships 

- co-dependency versus what I call "gate-walking" (how to hold sovereignty and our own shit within our deep partnerships) 

- the connections between alchemy, astrology, and psychology 

- my own version of the 7 stages of an underworld journey and why I'm so passionate for helping myself and those who are interested in learning with me to find tools and skills for moving through stage 2 (gnarly feels) and 3 (being with what's here). 

- how in ancient Sumerian language "ear" and "wisdom" are the same word, so in the original Descent when it begins that Inanna "opened her ear" to the Great Below, it refers to the wisdom she wanted to learn from the underworld, and how wisdom is so much of the gift of the journey 

- a discussion of how crucial it is to give our shadow self - the unconscious that bubbles up - a witness to listen and reflect back without judging, advice-giving, or solution-grasping 

This episode is so much of everything I am and everything I do. I love it. 

Learn about my new offering CAVE SPACE, an online learning container with 4 weekly lives but mostly pre-recorded teachings and exercises for you to experience at your own pace. I invited 12 contributors to bring their wisdom of the underground path to guide you in the dark. Most of them you will recognize from Moon to Moon or my learning containers. We meet Scorpio season. All replays available for folks who join later or can't attend. 

The purpose of CAVE SPACE is to give you magical language, tools, and exercises to greet yourself where it's often quite scary. The overall goal is the same as with all of Emergence Astrology: to help you trust your life. 

All participants receive my Scorpio workbook. The first 30 to register receive a Pluto ritual oil from Ashley Estabrook of Witches for Bernie.

Divorce is an initiation. And like all initiations, it's a death. Death brings life. Life brings death. The only sure thing is change. And divorce helps us live this truth in ways that are sometimes harrowing, often wondrous, always alive.

Divorce is utterly thorough in its initiatory invitations. There are no parts of us that aren't asked to shift. I know this. And Molly Blue Wilder knows it. 

Molly's bio: 28 years and 7 kids into marriage, the family-centered life I meticulously crafted fell apart at the seams.Even though it was high time, the upheaval of divorce exposed my deepest attachment wounds. Disoriented; overwhelmed; reeling with grief, uncertainty and fear, I gradually learned to hold onto myself in each moment as it unfolded, rather than getting sucked into the painful vortex of the past or the anxiety of an unknown future. Applying the salve of practical skills, somatic awareness and powerful shifts in thinking, I lovingly attended to my healing process, allowing innate power and intuition to deeply root the growth of my new family structure and relationships. Today, as a somatic and trauma informed life coach, I'm a bridge of resources and support for those on a similar hero's journey, facing the deepest wounds for the sake of wild self-reclamation, freedom, and powerful life creation.

I wish I had had someone like Molly to support me through my own initiation. (As I joke in the intro, astrology was my divorce recovery coach lol.)

In this beautiful conversation we discuss: 

• breaking up with the "good girl" archetype
• the outrageousness of our cultural celebration of "selflessness" 
• not only healing shame for the "bad decisions" of our younger self but actually falling in love with their wisdom and intelligence
• the importance of individuation and differentiation in secure attachments
• releasing our children from the ego's desire to be needed (LOADS of Mom wisdom in this conversation)
• healing by letting ourselves be whatever we previously thought was off-limits for us
• how, as space holders, healing our own trauma is the most loving thing we can do for our clients

Connect with Molly through her website. 

Check out her new podcast Growing Wilder. 

Follow Molly on Instagram. 

Molly and I share how we met in one of somatic healer Luis Mojica's small group spaces for space holders who have clients working with trauma. You may be interested in checking out my conversation with Luis on his podcast here and on Moon to Moon here.

Oh what a joy to be with Rebecca Padgett. This episode is a tale of 2 emergences: Rebecca's emergence as a beautiful, deeply connected astrologer and then her emergence as a full-blown psychic and seer. This episode is publishing on her solar return: Happy Birthday, Rebecca!

Stay until the end though the outro! I share some personal things that yielded some yummy words for you. 

Rebecca's bio: I am Rebecca Padgett - a tarot reader, astrologer, visual artist, and dedicated student of divinatory and intuitive practices. My attraction to all things mystical began in childhood. From a young age, I felt a connection to something more than what I could see and feel in this physical world. As my intuition developed, so did my sensitivity to the energy of others here and on the "other side." Inspired by my family lineage, I undertook an intensive period of study with a variety of internationally renowned teachers, astrologers, and tarot readers to clarify my own experiences, find my voice, and refine my ability to share my intuition with others. I take great pride in being able to reflect that knowledge to each person who comes to me seeking answers and guidance.

Sharing some Big Virgo Wisdom coming through lately in my court and it feels so yummy to share this with you here in the Moon to Moon space. 

This phrasing for Virgo from Esoteric Astrology feels like such a rich zone for listening and healing alchemy right now. What does it mean to be both the "mother" and vessel shaper of ourselves, of our lives? What does it mean to also be the child of ourselves, of our lives? This is not an easeful zone for contemplation because most of us have such activation when it comes to what we've been served from systemically unskillful Virgo energy. Many of us have been on the receiving end of harsh Virgo - especially to ourselves! 

This is the zone of the Inner Critic so I understand that caregiving here is frightening to consider. 

I feel that right now we're being asked to release how we're thinking about something that's going on in our lives. And I offer this Mother / Child medicine of Virgo as a way in. 

Virgo invites us to attune to what's up. To learn from it. To adapt based on this new information. And then to refine as you go. 

Attune - Learn - Adapt - Refine... This is Virgo. 

This isn't always easeful for those of us afraid to really show up, unsure how we feel about inhabiting a body here on the planet, afraid we'll do it wrong if we try, worried we can't trust ourselves to show up the way we might want to, convinced it's easier to just not have a refining process or a practice. 

My invitation is to gently start where you are and sit with what comes up to be witnessed and released as you listen here and live with what lands. 

In the episode, I also offer this tarot spread for you. It's 6 cards in a pyramid shape: 

TOP

1 card: What is the situation? This refers to whatever part of your life where you sense you're learning the most because you're being challenged to learn and adapt: a relationship, some aspect of your work, a way you're approaching something. 

MIDDLE

2 cards: Left: How am I the mother of this situation? Right: How am I the child? 

BOTTOM

3 cards: Left: What does Mercury want me to remember? Middle: What does Mercury want me to release? Right: What else do I need to know? 

Enjoy! Let me know how it goes. Tag me if you share! 

For sure the "situation" in my field right now is learning how to be the co-mother and the child of Astrology as Praxis. It's expanding and challenging who I think I am in radical, unforeseen ways.

My collaborator Jonathan Koe and I are still talking with folks interested in joining. Our curriculum explores various portals to approaching and integrating astrology into our lives - as a practice for unlocking creativity, questioning consensus reality, and remembering our participation in the cosmic body. You will be transformed at a cellular level. We begin our journey on Sep 10, 2022.

In this unashamedly magical episode, my collaborator Jonathan Koe and I are joined by a dearly admired member of our community spaces - Nicole France-Coe. Nicole landed in an astrology course that we tended to last year, and this year, Nicole will be joining us as part of the community support team for our upcoming course, Astrology as Praxis along with Jaclyn Skeans, who was the guest of Episode 23. This conversation is as unapologetically mystical, profound, and grounded as Nicole's presence is.

We discussed how Nicole found our spaces through a deep, intuitive call to learn astrology, how Nicole's life led them to the devotional path to The Great Mystery, and what she's learned about being living in the liminal as a mixed race, gender non-conforming, neurodivergent human. Nicole also spoke about her experience with astrology - trusting the stars to tell her who she is, working directly with the planets through her own embodied gnosis, and how astrology connects them to their ancestors. 

Nicole, Jonathan, and I had such a fun time during the point of the conversation where we collectively realized that Astrology as Praxis will be a year-long dance party with the planets. I'm excited for you to experience Nicole's magic with us in Astrology as Praxis.

Here's Nicole's bio:

Nicole Providence France-Coe (she/they) is a devotee to Great Mystery and all Its beauty, pleasure, liminality, and dismantling power. She is more at home in the Unknown than the Binary and the Static. Being born onto Earth as a mixed race, gender non-conforming, neurodivergent human has provided the blood and bone blueprint for learning how to dance in the cracks.

Nicole relates deeply to the archetypal energy of the Trickster as well as the High Priestess and delights in wedding these two energies in her body and through her oracular offerings.

This fall, with her partner Dicky, they will be launching their business website, The Lion & the Lute. This space will hold their offerings in service to ancestral healing, oracular arts, handmade goods and flower essences.

In the meantime, you can reach Nicole at nicoleprovidence@gmail.com or IG @nicolefrancecoe.

In this episode, Nicole also mentioned The Lyceum - The Sacred Trust https://sacredtrust.org/workshops/pollen/ as well as Kathryn Solie's poisonous plant medicine class https://www.kathrynsolie.com/

We also mention the work of Rachel Blodgett of Serpent & Bow. You can hear Rachel on M2M in Episode 43. And Megan Frye of Healing Wave Hypnosis. You can hear Megan on M2M Episode 56. 

Join me and Jonathan in a year-long astrological learning container, Astrology as Praxis! Our curriculum explores various portals to approaching and integrating astrology into our lives - as a practice for unlocking creativity, questioning consensus reality, and remembering our participation in the cosmic body. We begin our journey on Sep 10, 2022, and registration will open on Aug 26-28, 2022.

So thrilling to be getting into the real deal - the structure of what we will actually be doing in Astrology as Praxis: Remembering Your Participation in the Cosmic Body, my upcoming year-long astrology learning container. This is what you come for. 

How can we turn curriculum-building, something potentially boring and mundane, into a magical, mystical, creative practice? How do we build learning containers that are not only sturdy, but life-giving and nourishing? How can we create a course curriculum that works through our lives, our bodies, our spirits? 

In this conversation, Jonathan Koe and I sat for a meaty, joyful conversation on the curriculum of our upcoming course, Astrology as Praxis. As lifelong students and teachers, we geeked out over our shared love for a juicy course curriculum. So we knew that when we began speaking to the spirit of Astrology as Praxis, we wanted to also craft a robust curriculum - one that will ensure that participants will feel held, cared for, and, simultaneously, challenged during the transformative experience of the course.

We argue that it's once you're actually inside the experience that you learn what you came for. The visible curriculum is supported by so much invisible care, and we are transparent about our process here. I had so much fun talking about it all.  

We discussed how we weaved our mystical practices into the creation of this curriculum, how reflecting on the cardinal signs (Aries, Libra, Cancer, and Capricorn) volunteered to help us with creating structures for the container, and finally we revealed and discussed the powerful syllabus for Astrology as Praxis.

In the final 25 minutes, I speak to some logical and practical concerns you may have: how to afford this experience, what times are the meetups, and so. Stay until the end for answers to your questions.

What a joy it is to share the story & the spirit of my student-client-collaborator Jaclyn Skeans here on Moon to Moon. Jaclyn is no stranger to the podcast. She was on episode 53 with some of the crew from The Magician's Table 2021 talking about working with Fire and elemental magic. And she joined the last episode - number 64 - on Astrology as Community Constellator, with folks from my previous astrology learning container Charting Your Course.  

Jaclyn shares how astrology has infused her life over the last couple of years, calling her into emergence again and again as she has listened and shown up. As I share in the intro, Jaclyn is such a heart-opening presence for me and for those in the circles where I witness her. She will melt you with her honest and loving voice. In 2022, Jaclyn has become a force of inspiration for us, as she's listened to the coaxing of the planets to reclaim her identity as a creative person.  

I swell with pride to announce that Jaclyn will be joining Astrology as Praxis - my new learning container co-facilitated with Jonathan Koe - as part of our community support team. She will be helping us hold the space and will be teaching in the second half of our time. The whole community is so lucky to have her with us!  

Jaclyn Skeans (she/her) is an avid list maker (Virgo Rising), lover of all things magical (Pisces Sun), and always curious about how you're really doing (Scorpio Moon). Cultivating a more intimate relationship with astrology and the planets has been an ever evolving gift, one that currently has Jaclyn creating a life that inspires and excites her. In the real world you'll most likely find Jaclyn out on meandering walks with her dog, sitting in the sun, or in her sewing studio creating Astro Hoops- custom, textile creations that turn your natal chart into tangible art. Follow her @thePeachBungalow or at www.thePeachBungalow.com

Go visit the course page and sign up to get updates and more information. Registration will be August 26-28. We begin September 10!

Astrology is a medium for connecting with others. It's a community practice. It constellates us together while we remember who we are. The root of constellation means "together with the stars" - of course astrology brings us together with the stars! Tears! 

In this special episode, my collaborator Jonathan Koe and I host a conversation with five beautiful humans who participated in our 2021-22 astrological learning space Charting Your Course. 

We discussed:

• What they've learned about themselves, others, and the world around them from learning
• How applying and questioning 'knowledge' is as powerful as accruing it, and how it happened within a community of learners.
• What learning astrology has taught them about cultivating themselves and others in their lives.
• What trepidations they experienced in terms of learning together and being in a long-term learning container.
• What they learned about being with yourself and being in community since learning astrology within the community.

A special thank you to John Beynon, Amy Lauricello, Bridget Scanlon, Mary Schuch, and Jaclyn Skeans for contributing their insights and lived wisdom. Read more about them below:

John has been reading tarot since the early '90s and has been intertwining astrology and tarot in his personal practice, which he often shares through his Instagram account at @the.charyot. He brings a social justice lens to his work in the intuitive arts, and he is currently interested in how the modalities of tarot and astrology support recovery for people who are liberating themselves from substance abuse disorders.

Mary describes herself as someone who is committed to showing up for the experience of belonging in a human body. Informed by her upbringing as a homeschooled pastor's kid and the eighth of eleven siblings, Mary is reclaiming her right to exploration and education. She values meditative multidisciplinary living through her practices of writing, music, art, movement, breadmaking, astrology, and being outdoors.You can find Mary @maryschuch.

Jaclyn Skeans (she/her) is an avid list maker (Virgo Rising), lover of all things magical (Pisces Sun), and always curious about how you're really doing (Scorpio Moon). Cultivating a more intimate relationship with astrology and the planets has been an ever evolving gift, one that currently has Jaclyn creating a life that inspires and excites her. In the real world you'll most likely find Jaclyn out on meandering walks with her dog, sitting in the sun, or in her sewing studio creating Astro Hoops- custom, textile creations that turn your natal chart into tangible art. Follow her @thePeachBungalow or at www.thePeachBungalow.com

Bridget Scanlon is an Aries Rising, Scorpio Sun, and Capricorn Moon living in New York.

This episode is our siren song as we constellate the community around our next learning container: Astrology as Praxis. We are lovingly calling in and nurturing our future course participants and all those for whom this exploration may be deeply shifting or liberating. 

Registration will be Aug 26-28 and we begin Sept 10. Please reach out for questions or clarifications.

In this solo episode, I share a framework I've been playing with for a few months: All My Fucks Got Abducted. Before diving in please note my CONTENT WARNING that I talk about abduction & trauma, and then I invite listeners to reframe the idea of abduction as a term that is neutral depending on the perspective. I completely understand if some folks find this conversation triggering or inappropriate.  Abduction literally means "to lead away." What if we play with this idea of the planets abducting the fucks we're ready to let go of, those egoic investments, fears, or attachments that hook us and keep us from exploring and feeling liberated with new ways of being in the world?   Example: I used to be obsessed with being seen as good and nice and rule-following, but those fucks got abducted, and now I feel free to be in my truth.   I talk about where the phrasing came from (this meme that cracked me up with its playful sci-fi vibe) and how it came back to me in a collective reading for one of my course containers. I share how I've been playing with it in my own process and then invite you to decide if it resonates or not.  The second part of the episode is a suggested Ceremony for the Fucks that Got Abducted. Please listen before trying it out to be sure it resonates for you. Edit the template to your style, desires, and comfort. Make it yours!  +++ If you're interested in learning astrology with me, if you've been craving inclusion to one of my community containers, know that I have a new experience coming up called: ASTROLOGY AS PRAXIS: REMEMBERING OUR PARTICIPATION IN THE COSMIC BODY. Go visit the course page and sign up to get updates and more information. Sending love to everyone whose heart is already, always called to Astrology as Praxis, whether as a future participant or as someone curious to learn, listen, and engage with our thesis. It belongs to all of us. +++ Podcast art by Angela George. Podcast music by Jonathan Koe.

To celebrate the first 7 years of my business (a Saturn cycle), I am looking back at the habits, healing, and challenges I faced in the various chapters along my path. 

In this particular installment, I look at a period marked by a lot of Death, where learning to hold grief, and to trust myself as I faced uncertain futures, became essential to how I hold everything in life, including the art of my career.  

This will likely be the most personal and vulnerable chapter in this whole series. It was a year of rollicking change, grounding in ritual, and surrendering to trust. 

I call the frameworks that emerged at this time Vulture Magic and The Emergent No. These grew mostly from my personal life, especially 4th, 7th, and 8th house relationships and experiences.  

To catch the previous chapters of this story, tune into Episodes 179, 183, and 190.

To explore the history of the ideas I built out this year: Emergent No & Vulture Magic, Dumbo's Feather, and Coincidence as a Practice with Matt Bull. 

Mentioned: Danica Boyce and Sam Garcia.

In this episode, my long-time collaborator and treasured friend Jonathan Koe (they/he) and I get to naming just what astrology means to us. We do this by deepening into the keywords of our upcoming learning container: 

ASTROLOGY AS PRAXIS: REMEMBERING OUR PARTICIPATION IN THE COSMIC BODY

We discuss:

• The ways our colonial education presents an incomplete model
• Learning in community
  • Competitive & comparative dynamics
• How praxis show up in our collaboration
• Praxis through the lens of Saturn & Mercury
• Praxis allowing the opening of relationships and the loss of control - to not only conquer the concepts and understand the ideas and archetypes, but also to be in communion with and to stand under those ideas.
  • A certain humility and mystery around learning
• An example that I shared around healing Saturnian time and cultivating relationship to the lunar time, balancing the two in order to come into right relationship of time.
• Adoption rates and adoption methods in learning
• Jonathan shares that they'd rather not be an expert than not be a lover
• Remembering our participation in the cosmic body
  • Remembering as gentleness
  • Participation as an active word
  • Cosmos vs cosmic body

In the intro, I share how I feel like Astrology is Praxis feels like arriving to language for how I've been relating to astrology all along in my wild way... now lit up, clarified, and made more potent and approachable by Jonathan's intellectual, creative, collaborative, mystical, embodied care.

In this episode, I share a significant part of what's been going on behind the scenes in my world since late February: dreaming into being an entirely new astrological learning container with my long-time collaborator and treasured friend Jonathan Koe (they/he).

What an honor to share this conversation with my dear friend, creative collaborator, and business partner Angela George. In this iteration from the series LTFOOYC, we study and celebrate how Angela is living the f**k out of her chart with special focus on her Libra Rising, Virgo stellium, and Leo Sun. 

Many M2M listeners already know Angela through her aesthetic genius in my workbooks. Angela is my First Reader, and takes the content I channel from Word doc to delicious design. 

As a creative director, Angela has walked numerous companies through the branding exercise, both young companies and established brands looking for a fresh identity. Her innovative outlook allows clients to articulate their unique qualities in ways that forge profound and lasting connections, which she then translates through the language of design. 

Angela has worked for boutique design studios and behemoth Ad agencies. She spent nearly 7 years at The Richards Group where she quickly worked her way up from designer to leading a team of creatives for a number of the agency's top clients such as Red Lobster and Dr Pepper Snapple Group.

Angela founded By George Partners in 2011 to focus her energy on the clientele she is most passionate about: lifestyle brands with an emphasis on food, fashion, and hospitality industries.

At the core of her practice is always strategic, conceptual, design work.

Her enthusiasm for food, and unique creative background landed her an opportunity in 2015 to compete with cooks on Food Network's new hit series "All Star Academy" (Season One). There, she used her creative skills and talents in the kitchen to compete for prizes under the tutelage of celebrity chef Bobby Flay!
