Moon to Moon 177. Contemplating the Chthonic with Astrologer Mariola Rosario
My guest this episode is one of my favorite astrologers Mariola Rosario. No stranger to Moon to Moon, Mariola was one of my first students who has since become my colleague and one of the faculty in Emergence Astrology.
Mariola and I have long shared a fascination with the Scorpionic. I was one of the first to sign up for your new offering Chthonic AF when she offered it last fall. Now she’s bringing it back with a Taurus polarity version that looks so enticing that I had to invite her on M2M to share some of her genius for this field of thinking, dreaming, and living.

Mariola Rosario is an artist, astrologer, educator, and flâneuse weaving together occult traditions and visual culture. Born in Puerto Rico and now based in Paris, she offers astrology and tarot consultations, leads walking seminars exploring the hidden, esoteric layers of the city, and collaborates with fellow artists, magicians, and curious souls (in person and online)
She has always found herself somewhere along the teacher–student axis, and continues to seek alternative, compassionate approaches to pedagogy, ones that cultivate spaces of mutual aid, enchantment, and learning through co-creation.
Her upcoming course, Chthonic AF: Rooting into Myths of Pleasure, Monstrous Fertility, and the Ecstatic Earth Body, unfolds throughout Taurus season. It explores the chthonic not just as something dark and buried, but as embodied, lush, and regenerative - through myth, monstrosity, ritual, art, astrology, and more. This is the sister-mirror course to Chthonic AF Scorpio season, which took place last fall. The course begins on April 19th and runs through May 20th. All people, experiences, and learning styles are welcomed.
In June, Mariola will co-host a dreamy retreat in Greece alongside Megan Frye, blending astrology, myth, yoga, rest, and culinary delights under the stars. This is an invitation to relax, play, reconnect, and root into yourself. As of this recording, only three spots remain. All bodies, genders, and experiences are welcomed.
Mariola also writes on Substack, where she shares reflections on myth, art, monstrosity, embodiment, and the magic of language. You can subscribe and read her latest here: https://substack.com/@lasfloresdelmal
