Moon to Moon 170. Courting the Divine with Teagan West of The Altar
In this episode, I share a conversation with the very magnetic and wise Teagan West of The Altar.
Teagan is one of the three 13th Readers for The Magician’s Table this year.
We discussed:
- how we met through the Magician’s Table webs of Jonathan Koe (first 13th Reader) and Nicole France-Coe (past participant and then 13th Reader last year)
- our shared experiences and connections as 12th house individuals
- the astrological connections between our charts
- Teagan’s upcoming Saturn Return
- the importance of devotional frequency and the role of Virgo in holding ritual space for the community
- how agitating and alchemical my work is for Teagan
- Teagan’s craft, magic, and modalities
- rebranding of their business to "The Altar," reflecting their belief in the body as a sacred site for the intersection of the human and the more than human
- life as an act of devotion to recognizing the Divine in all things
- their transition from being an artist to studying Ayurveda and their current focus on developing their oracular gifts, particularly through astrology and channeling their ancestors

Their personal praxis exists at the intersection of Ritual, Ancestral Legacy, and Dance as an embodied liberation practice. Teagan's relationship to Astrology is deeply Ancestral in nature, rooted in an animist cosmology of relating to the celestial bodies as more-than-human kin. Their people come from Syria, Lebanon, Egypt, Ireland + North America, and are a formative part of Teagan's own relationship to the sky as a mirror. Teagan weaves mythopoetic storytelling and ritual praxis into their relationship to Astrology, bridging these Ancient ways of knowing with our modern interpretations of the cosmos.

The discounted Early Bird pricing this year is ONLY AVAILABLE THROUGH THE TMT 2025 WAITLIST. Only those on that list will receive the link to apply on Feb 27. Applications will be taken Feb 27-March 2.
Only applications received that weekend will be eligible for the EB discounted tuition. All scholarship requests must move through this process, so be sure you’re on the waitlist.
It’s highly possible that most cohorts will fill from applications submitted Feb 27-March 2. Joining the waitlist is not an application to apply. Applying is not enrolling. If you want to give yourself options, join the waitlist, then apply. Then decide upon receiving your acceptance.
The only applications I decline are those where it’s very clear the applicant hasn’t read the course page and doesn’t understand the structure and intensity of this offering, or when the applicant reveals that they do not have the emotional or somatic capacity to hold the energy of this transformation right now.
Questions? Please read through the course page carefully, stay tuned for more podcasts and emails on this offering, and/or reach out to my team at info@brittenlarue.com.
