Moon to Moon – Details, episodes & analysis

Every now and then I share what I call a "dark moon download." These are my favorite episodes of Moon to Moon. I share something coming through hot, and always what gets disseminated becomes part of a larger framing in my work. 

In the one, I reference my intuition teachers: Mary Grisey and Deborah Kremins. 

I also reference scholars of the Phenomenon that I love: Dr. Diana Pasulka (see her book American Cosmic), Dr. James Madden (see his book Unidentifed Flying Hyperobject), and Dr. Jeffrey Kripal (see Mutants and Mystics among others).

My guest is Jonathan Koe. My student-turned-collaborator and dear friend, Jonathan is my favorite person on the planet to talk about astrology with! 

To the ancients, the 5th House was called The House of Good Fortune. 

Here we’re discussing how shame can show up in the department of life we call the 5th House, which includes: 

- Children and generativity  

- Having fun 

- Romance and not-committed sexuality 

- Creativity and creating 

- Hobbies 

- Good fortune & luck 

Jonathan and I go far and deep, as we like to when we get together on a topic we care about!

Jonathan Koe is a queer astrologer, diviner, and alchemist of the subtle realm.

Their work aims to empower fellow shapeshifters, visionaries, and intuitives in remembering their essence, cultivating skills in being present with the ever-changing nature of reality, and weaving sincere, loving kinships with the world - even when the world has broken our hearts.

You can follow their weekly astrological contemplations and conversations with friends on their podcast, Healing The Spirit.

Woohoo - 42 has been my lucky number since I was a kid. I feel like this is reflected in this episode because I am so utterly fortunate to have magnetized the people you'll hear from here. 

I have lucky Jupiter in the 3rd House of teaching meetups and my Part of Fortune in the 11th House of constellating people with shared dreams. I am blessed when it comes to magnetizing the right people! You know this if you join any of my groups. I bring in folks who are smart, creative, critical thinkers who are also old souls seeking something more mystical and heart-led from their lives. I bring in the clever and the witty, the earnest and the authentic, the kind and the good. I am so so so lucky. 

Welcome to our "reunion show" with some of the cohort from last year's Charting Your Course. Thank you Pisces Sun Lauren Margolies, Scorpio Sun Mariola Rosario, Moon to Moon art creator & Leo Sun Angela George, Virgo Sun Rebecca Padgett, and Moon to Moon music composer & Pisces Sun Jonathan Koe for joining me to reminisce and share words of love for your experience of the container. 

Lauren, Mariola, Rebecca, and Jonathan are now practicing astrologers in the public sphere. Woohoo! Check out their voices! Reach out to them for readings! Angela is deeply involved with astrology as my business partner, and she also creates ritual products based on her knowledge of astrological magic. Stay tuned for more on that in the months ahead. 

Listen to the episode to learn about ways that an embodied, intuitive approach to astrology can change your life.

Listen to the episode to feel inspired by these magical people. 

Listen to the episode to attune to whether or not this year's Charting Your Course will be the kind of investment and leap you want right now. 

Because it is an investment. And it is a leap. And it's worth it if you're resonating with the words we share.

Thank you thank you thank you to these 5 individuals for giving Moon to Moon your time and beautiful energy. Thank you also to all of you in the cohort from last year who are listening. We felt you with us!

And thank you for everyone who has already said Yes to CYC and to those who will soon.

Ah Virgo, you beautiful sign, you. Happy Birthday to all the Virgo Suns! 

In this episode, I get into some of Virgo's wisdom teachings, including a discussion of Vesta. Then I recap where we're at right now astrologically in the year. I end by discussing the powerful new and full moons across this Virgo season.  

This is a powerful time for integration and shift. And the most important invitation I have for you is to go EARTH: embrace your embodiment practices, tend to your practical life, seek somatic healing, and give devotion to all skills and techniques which support your energetic clarity and sovereignty.

Welcome back to the next episode in this series Living the F**k Out of Your Chart. I hope you are loving these! 

My guest is Kristin Layne Tucker. Kristin is an Emmy-nominated screenwriter and highly creative human being. I know Kristin as a client and student who is fearless about going to the deepest places in the chart. A Sag Rising, Aries Sun-Venus-Mars-Mercury, and Leo Moon, Kristin has learned to be an alchemist with so much FIRE in her chart. 

Her life, as she shares, has been shaped by the Archer's desire to aim for a world she doesn't see yet. Her personal Aries stellium in the 5th House of creativity opposite the generational Jupiter-Saturn-Pluto in Libra in the 11th House of collectivity has been a powerful push-pull axis for her. She has been growing into how to serve her self-expression while also addressing and serving collective transformation and the calling in of new paradigms. We speak too about her Vesta-Moon conjunction in Leo in the 9th House. Tune in to hear about it! 

The Emmy-nominated Kristin Layne Tucker began following her calling when she transferred from Georgetown University to the University of Southern California. It was there that she took her first screenwriting class and fell in love with the art form. After college, Kristin enrolled in graduate school at the University of Texas at Austin, where she received her M.A. in Screenwriting. Post-graduate school, she worked as an assistant to a television literary agent at WME while delving into her own writing pursuits. With the television scripts she wrote, Kristin was one of seven comedy semi-finalists in the Austin Film Festival, one of six comedy finalists for the Warner Bros. Television Writers’ Workshop and was one of eight writers accepted into NBC’s Writers on the Verge. Kristin’s small screen debut came as a writer on Disney Channel’s Dog With A Blog. Subsequently, she worked as a writers’ assistant on the Showtime series Black Monday, at Hartbeat Productions on a Kevin Hart project for Netflix, and as a writer on comedian Jo Koy’s animated series This Functional Family. Her most recent writing credits include season two of HBO’s groundbreaking, Emmy-nominated A Black Lady Sketch Show as well as season two of Golden Globe and Emmy-nominated The Flight Attendant on HBO Max. Kristin was also recently tapped to write a feature for Netflix, starring Jada Pinkett Smith.

In the summer of 2020, Kristin was the graduation speaker at our alma mater. This is a HUGE honor. Toward the end of our conversation, I read excerpts of her speech to reflect back to her - and to you the listener - the power of her voice. You can literally feel her chart inside these words! So moving! 

Enjoy!

On August 5, Jonathan Koe and I hosted a free webinar titled Living the F**k Out of Your Chart. In this episode, I share the audio recording from that spirited hour together. Click here if you would like to watch the video recording. 

In the webinar, we court the notion of "living the f**k our your chart" by asking three introductory questions: 

- What is astrology? 

- What is the birth chart? 

- What is not-astrology? 

This brings to the our super provocative thesis as well as our suggested technique for getting closer to living the f**k out of your chart in your own chart analysis.

It is my honor to introduce the first of a series of episodes under the very fun title: Living the F**k Out of Your Chart. 

The origins of the phrasing are discussed in this episode, as Jonathan was the person who first said this as their intention for learning astrology in my astrology class Charting Your Course. 

Jonathan and I met initially when they booked a series of astrology readings with me in 2019. Across 2020, Jonathan became one of my most active students and community members, and in 2021 Jonathan has become my trusted teaching collaborator. Jonathan is also the creator of the beautiful music here on Moon to Moon! They are also my very, treasured dear friend. 

Jonathan is a queer multi-hyphenate mystic. Using the languages of music, astrology, tarot, energy, and statistics, Jonathan's work aims to empower fellow seekers through compassionate discernment, to nurture communities, and to shift our collective relationship to limitations.

You can find Jonathan on IG at @nate_qi and book readings on their website. 

Join me and Jonathan for a free webinar on Living the F**k Out of Your Chart on Aug 5. If you see this after that date, you can still catch the replay for what will be a very juicy conversation.

Sign up from receive updates on Charting Your Course, which begins again September 1 and runs to mid-March. The course page will be ready very soon. I only open the doors to my astro class once a year - this is it! The course is a life-changing experience to teach you how to read your chart and learn the language of astrology. Only the people on this mailing list will have access to the Early Bird bonus.

In this special episode, I share an interview with my astrology teacher Adam Sommer. 

Adam has been working in the realm of astrology for 13 years now. That's a long time! He is a trove of information and leaps between concepts and modalities with ease. Adam is a Virgo Rising with a Gemini Sun and Scorpio Moon. His mind is quick, sharp, and agile. He is a wordsmith, a trickster, and a storyteller. And he intuits deeply and bravely into the hidden and mysterious. 

Before our conversation begins, I share some thoughts on teachers, teaching, learning, and influencing here in this Hierophant year (I define that in the episode) as a bridge to my talk with Adam.  

In our conversation, we cover the following: 

• How I came to choose Adam as my teacher (sneak peek: it has to do with Chiron)
• How Adam encouraged me to develop personal intimacy with the planets through personal gnosis, magic, and tracking patterns in my life
• Astrology as soul-making
• Astrology as a journey of trust to find connections between people: friends, students, clients, teachers, and other companions
• Adam’s wild, unexpected journey since Uranus entered his 9th House that he’s called The Wyrd Road
• Refining what you love about astrology over the years
• How to answer the question: “What kind of astrologer are you?”
• Adam’s story of getting claimed by astrology despite early resistance - thank yous to Bob Dylan, Richard Tarnas, and Ari Moshe
• How in 2009 Adam started his podcast Holes to Heavens, previously known as Exploring Astrology
• Why he loves working with the synodic cycles and tracking patterns over the years
• Inviting in magic to work with your astrological practice
• Adam’s affinity with Mercury as the planet to which he feels most naturally connected (Adam is Virgo Rising with a Gemini Sun!)
• The importance of locating stories and rewriting stories with their chart - including recognizing that “we aren’t our stories”
• Living with and appreciating the paradox and mystery in the chart and in astrology genrally
• His love for bringing people together at retreats that weave his diverse, multi-disciplinary (Gemini) interests
• How the Gemini-Sag lunar nodes seem to be teaching Adam now (that’s his 4th & 10th House axis)
• His current project to write the astrology book for The Wooden Book series

If you haven't already, please go find Adam Sommer through his podcast Holes to Heavens, at his website, through his Patreon community, and on writings on Medium.

In this episode, I share the deep and powerful teachings of Leo, the Sun, & the Strength card. This is important because it's about heart-tuning for your vitality and radiant contentment. Aren't these what we're all really going for in this life? 

Leo helps you lead from a place of passion and creativity in a way that feels generous and abundant to those receiving your majesty. And in this way, Leo teaches you how to serve as you lead and lead as you serve. 

Leo heals scarcity. 

Leo is central to your chart. Look to yours for the house where you have Leo and consider the themes of your Leo domain when listening. 

We also discuss the particular thematics of this Leo season 2021. I hope you find it supportive to you as you live the astrology in real time!
