Moon to Moon

The first part of this episode is a deep dive in my (Britten's) world. I share my process of acknowledging and honoring that I am truly building the business of my dreams and what I'm learning about being a wild teacher and wild business woman.  It's classic Moon to Moon. I speak from my cave space.  To go straight to my conversation with my wonderful guest Natasha Levinger, skip to about 47 minutes in. Many listeners of M2M are no strangers to the Natasha's work. Natasha is my go-to teacher and healer for healing my inner child. She's also my dear friend and the one I call when I want to talk about being biz witches.  We thought it would be fun and helpful to frame a conversation on inner child healing with the Aries archetype. Topics include: tantrums, triggers, reactivity, competition, judgment, and charge in the body. Several times we honor the work of somatic healer Luis Mojica of Holistic Life Navigation.  Time sensitive! Natasha's life-changing Inner Child Healing course begins April 11. Join to the waitlist ASAP to get access to get signed up. For me, this is required coursework in being a human in a body.  Natasha Levinger is an intuitive reader, inner child healing teacher & energy healer, whose goal it is to help you feel more self-love, clarity and connection to your true, powerful self. Natasha offers one on one sessions to help you get to the core of what you are going through, clear your energy and expand into who you truly are. Her inner child healing workshop is also at the core of her work, helping people to be able to better know themselves and feel self-love. Her book, Inner Child Healing, comes out in the Spring of 2023. Follow Natasha on IG. She is the Queen of Memes!

What can I say? This episode is another rainbow connection. The Lovers, the Dreamers, and Me. Angela Mary Magick is my guest and she is a Lover and my Dream of a friend and mentor. Angela shares her story of emergence with us: how she discovered her magick, how she came to call herself a witch, how she emerged in public ways, how she listens to her emerging public offerings as they evolve with her private life. She gives us words of urgent encouragement for sharing our craft in the world.  I often forgot I was "interviewing" her because I was so deep in listening and receiving her deep, buttery voice and the impact of her wisdom. Angela Mary Magick is the Crone I want in my life and I am honored to share her with you in this space. Please connect with Angela via the resonant channels for you, linked below.

This episode is a special treat for Moon to Moon. I am joined by 5 glorious guests to discuss the elements of Water & Earth: how to define them, how to recognize them moving through your life, how to cultivate intimacy with them, how to work with them if you feel low in one or another.   Mallory Dowd is a tarot reader, artist, teacher, theatre-maker, storyteller, and mystic. She has been holding space for over 15 years in varying roles as a clinical case manager, domestic violence advocate, support group facilitator, teacher, and tarot reader. As an artist, Mallory aims to enchant and awaken, casting spells with her words and urgently embodying the gifts of creativity, imagination, and play. As a reader, she holds warm and compassionate space in which to embrace the energies and invitations that linger on the edges of awareness, desire, and change. She currently resides in Seoul, South Korea. IG: @mallorydowd Lauren Margolies is a holistic wellness teacher offering modalities such as yoga, meditation, sound healing, breath work, energy healing & is also a budding astrologer.

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. Through these avenues, Mary is joyfully emerging as an intuitive and comedic mystic.  Jaclyn Skeans (she/her) is a Virgo Rising, Pisces Sun, Scorpio Moon residing in San Antonio, TX.

She has always found herself somewhere between the teacher-student axis and would like to continue to find alternative and more compassionate routes towards inclusive pedagogy and revolutionary, anti-extractive modes of learning and co-creating spaces of magical and material mutual aid. Mariola will be one of the 13 Readers for this year's Magician's Table. IG: @mariola_rosario Learn about The Magician's Table and sign up for the waitlist.

Welcome Pisces! Listeners know how much this one always mean to me, as a Pisces Sun / Mercury / Venus.  In the first hour or so we attune the Pisces archetype. I also get into Jupiter and Neptune as rulers of Pisces and discuss what it means to have both in Pisces in the sky right now.  Then I get into Pisces seasons's exuberant energetic invitation this year.  Purchase the Pisces workbook for yourself or for a Pisces-leaning friend.  Check out The Magician's Table, my next collective offering.  Book a session.  Podcast art by Angela George.

The first 20 minutes of this episode I talk about some of the learning and healing I've been experiencing with the Venus in Capricorn (sign of my Moon) since November. I do discuss my trauma and grief so please skip ahead if you are not in a space for any potentially activating topics.  For the remainder of the episode, I talk about The Magician's Table. The Magician's Table is a framework which anyone can integrate into their lives straightaway. And also: it's a 3-month container I am offering again this spring.  Either way, the Magician's Table has to do with cultivating trust and intimacy with your magical gifts and service to the world. If you want to feel more flow and confidence as an intuitively-led human being, please have a listen.  Join the waitlist for The Magician's Table: A Workshop Circle for Emerging Readers.

The Future Self we long to greet emerges as we become approachable. I am so excited to share this episode, mostly just because it felt good in my body to record.  This episode has three parts: 1) on E M E R G E N C E and all this term means to my work, 2) why Aquarius is the ultimate emergence sign, with a long time sitting with Aquarius's teachings, and 3) the astrology of Aquarius season 2022.  Yummy yummy yummy.  That Toko-pa Turner quote from Belonging: Remembering Ourselves Home is: "Emergence never happens all at once. It is a slow stepping into the expanded capacity of your next self. You may need practice at releasing in those places you’ve grown accustomed to bracing which, like a tight swaddle, was comforting in its limits. But when the time to remain hidden comes to its natural end, you must begin to inhabit your new dimensionality, breathe into the fullness of your gaining altitude and consider that what presents itself as fear may actually be exhilaration. As your future approaches you, worry less how it may receive you and say a prayer instead for your becoming approachable."  +++ Sign up here to learn more about The Magician's Table 2022.

I'm excited to share another installment of the LTFOOYC series. This time my guest is Mallory Dowd, a Capricorn Sun. Mallory is also a Virgo Rising with Virgo Moon.  Mallory is indeed living the F out of her chart. With Sun conjunct Jupiter in the 5th house of creativity, Mallory brings Capricornian structure and ritual to the expansive magic of personal storytelling. Having experienced her readings, I can attest to the fact that Mallory is deeply connected to multiple channels of intuition. Her witchcraft is huge and profound, and her heart is even bigger. Listeners, I hope you love this conversation.  Mallory Dowd is an artist, tarot reader, teacher, theatre-maker, storyteller, and mystic. In 2014, she left her home in so-called Chicago and a dissatisfying career in social work, and moved to South Korea, where she resides today. Mallory aims to enchant and awaken, casting spells with her words and urgently embodying the gifts of creativity, imagination, and play. As a reader and guide, she holds warm and compassionate space in which to embrace the energies and invitations that linger on the edges of awareness, desire, and change. Mallory collaborates with her clients, Spirit, and guides to connect with inner wisdom and self-expression, peer into the crones’ cave, and unearth treasures from the depths of our messy, miraculous lives. She has a growing email newsletter community and is in the process of birthing new creative offerings and a podcast that playfully blends tarot, mysticism, and storytelling. Follow Mallory on Instagram, join her newsletter, and book a reading with her to experience more of her magic.   +++ Sign up here to learn more about The Magician's Table 2022.

As with all things Capricorn and Saturn, my goal here was to bring honor to the topics at hand.  The first part of this episode is a recap of the primary astrological invitations of 2021. I hope to help you come into a sense of "this is what I learned" and to bring it some closure.  Then we move into Capricorn wisdom and talk about Saturn. I find a lot of pleasure in expanding our definitions of these archetypes.  Cap season has a lot of significant astrology so I spend more than usual on what's coming.  And final: I offer a 5-card tarot reading for us. That felt so nice.  It's a long one. Key themes:  - how self-worth issues limit our visions  - shame and Capricorn  - opening the heart and surrendering to love when you have no evidence that it's safe to do so  - witnessing fears and vulnerabilities in order to release them  - intentions as sentient beings  - getting honest about capacity  - erotic aliveness as healing agent to winter's hardening - ritualizing as Capricornian magic  - materializing what Sag taught you about aspirations  ... and more. I dedicate this episode to Matt, Prince of Dicks, who holds such loving space for my vulture alchemy.   +++ To check out my 6-month Transformation offering or order a Year Ahead Reading, visit my bookings page.  For deeper learning, invest in the Capricorn workbook and/or Seeding the Year 2022.  Podcast music by Jonathan Koe.

As it's my central thesis of this episode that Sag season is here for us to help integrate, process, and alchemize all we've been learning across both autumn and this whole year, I spend a good half of this episode sharing all that I've been moving through lately, noting the big invitations in my life and where I am with these. So much of what I notice in my life I also see reflected in the experiences shared by my students, collaborators, friends, family, and clients.  Topics:  - rewriting self-identifications with confusion - allowing oneself to be a winner  - musing on the words "I love you" and how they live and last beyond the contracts we make and break with those we love  - Vulture Magic celebrations  - what I am learning with The Devil  - new lessons on knowing one's value  - surprising layers of trauma healing  - how this moment feels like a new beginning  And then we get into Sagittarius wisdom. And I discuss where we are with the astrology right now and then the highlights of the forecast for Sag season. LOTS in this episode!  I hope you love it. If so, please rate and/or review Moon to Moon if you haven't before.

It is my joy and honor to introduce a new format to the seasonal episode!  The episode has three parts:    1. A review of the rollocking recent astrology, weaving in personal storytelling and insights per usual 2. A rich, heart-led, and thought-provoking conversation with the brilliant and highly Scorpionic Mariola Rosario  3. My highlights and pointers to consider for Scorpio Season 2021   My upcoming Pluto intensive NOTES FROM THE UNDERGROUND: CULTIVATING INTIMACY WITH PLUTO + SCORPIO is open for registration now and runs for 3 weeks: October 26 - November 16. Register now to dive into the pre-course module and prepare.  I have constellated a team of incredible humans to guide us lovingly to the Underworld and back again: somatic therapist Luis Mojica, hypnotherapist Megan Frye, and astrologer (and this episode's podcast guest) Mariola Rosario. Notes from the Underground will truly be an interdisciplinary approach to this material. My highest intention for us is to offer a wildly stimulating intellectual experience alongside practical and embodied nourishment with what comes up when we get into Pluto’s zone. To learn more and sign up, check out the course page.  Mariola Rosario (she/her) is an astrologer, professor, artist and cultural producer from Borikén, the land currently known as Puerto Rico. Right now, she is living and experiencing our global collapse from the shores of Paris, France. Mariola loves collaborating with artists, intuitives, freaks, ghouls, old, new & curious souls, students, teachers, organizers, activists, ancestors, flowers, plants, animals, candles, tarot, planets and beyond. Mariola’s artistic practice and academic research interests often revolve around cross-disciplinary aesthetic production from literary and contemporary visual culture to critical theory, mythology, photography and autobiography, alternative pedagogy and communal learning processes. Her current main artistic expression is the love language of Astrology and the empowering conversations that arise from it.  The deeper she dives into this contemplative practice, the more she begins to consider Astrology as an Artistic Practice: a dialogue, a dance, a conversation between us, here on Planet Earth, and the divine Cosmos that houses all the delicious secrets of the Universe. Mariola is a Scorpio Sun, Scorpio Rising, Capricorn moon and proud alumni of the Pluto in Scorpio generation aka millennials, aka “generation hex”. No stranger to the katabatic journey, Mariola was born with Pluto in the first house, a tender point that has always required very international nurturing, kisses and sweet surrender. Pluto is currently still transiting her natal moon. I hope you love the episode. If you do, please leave some stars and a sweet review to brighten my day!  +++ Podcast music by Jonathan Koe.
