According to historian Benson Bobrick, Astrology is the origin of science itself. From Astrology are derived astronomy, the calculation of time, mathematics, medicine, botany, mineralogy, and by way of alchemy modern chemistry. Join us, and our renowned guests Eric Francis of planetwaves.net and Tarot scholar Christine Payne-Towler as we discover what a rich and colorful impact Astrology has made on history and the history of ideas. We will take you through its impressive 5000 year evolution. Be surprised by who studied it, practiced it, paid for it, and ruled by its wisdom. Have we got your attention? You are not alone. Between 30-40% of Americans (100,000,000 people) believe in this sacred metaphysical science and art. Join us for a fresh and credible view on this much aligned subject that's once again being taught in colleges & universities all over the world. Astrology is astronomy brought down to earth and applied to the affairs of men. -Ralph Waldo Emerson

This month the Sun traverses the first water sign of the zodiac, Cancer. Cancer rules our youngest, most fundamental emotions, which are imprinted during our early years. Cancer rules our unconscious emotional memory, our pre-verbal emotional intuition and intelligence, and our private inner experience of life. Representatives of the Cancer archetype include the protective and nurturing Mother, and the sensitive and vulnerable Infant. Our bodies are containers for our emotions, which in turn affect our physical and mental health and well-being. Yet emotions are often considered unimportant, or ignored, even denied and suppressed. However they are an important part of our human experience. They are the source of, or give rise to our unconscious automatic responses and behaviors. Special guest Patricia Kendall, Ph.D. is a psychotherapist, an Accredited Journey Practitioner, and Licensed Spiritual Health Coach. She describes emotions for us, how they work, and using them healthily.

As the first air sign of the zodiac, Gemini helps us engage the mind, create connections with others, and adapt to change. It’s planetary ruler, Mercury, is the messenger and communicator, the trickster and the psychopomp. He is the god of thresholds and passages, bridging spaces in our mental and physical landscapes, our spiritual tour guide on our journey through life. br When the fast moving planet Mercury stations retrograde, he invites us to slow down, turn our awareness inward, and receive his communications and insights. If we take the time to listen, Mercury helps us navigate our world, adapt, and move forward productively in the long run. br Special guest soul-centered astrologer Gray Crawford describes archetypal Mercury for us, sharing stories from Greco-Roman mythology. He explains the Mercury retrograde cycle, its symbolic meaning, and guides us through the Mercury retrogrades we experience this year.

The sign of Taurus is associated with many archetypal and mythological figures, including Gaia, the Earth Herself. Attuning to the natural rhythms and seasons on Earth, and celestial cycles in the night sky are Taurean practices in Shamanic Astrology. br Practitioners of this modern form of astrology directly experience the movements of the constellations and planets with their own senses. Just as our ancient ancestors, they view the heavens without the aid of technology, connected to the earth beneath their feet. Through ceremony the practitioner participates in planetary and seasonal cycles. The myths and stories associated with the planets and constellations above come alive and provide personal meaning to enrich our lives. The ancient adage “As above, so below, as within, so without” becomes a tangible, organic reality. br Hear our special guest, Daniel Giamario, creator of the Shamanic Astrology Paradigm, tell us about this earth-centered, participatory, spiritual practice.

How did we get this way? Have we ever valued collaboration over conflict? Or, is this the only story we know ~ one of competition, discrimination and the overpowering of others 'less worthy'? Could our preferred, inter-relational and environmental, expressions of violence and abuse, become our legacy? Join me and my guest, Eric Francis Coppolino, of Planet Waves, to investigate humanity's deeply-seeded exclusionary and inclusionary behavior patterns. We'll probe the status quo of the (in)discriminate dismissal of individual human rights (based on gender, race, culture, nationalism, religious beliefs, body type...). We'll look to Eris and Chiron to help us unravel the symbolism of this - one of humanity's current lessons.

The flowing, transcendent water sign of Pisces is the final sign of the zodiac. It marks our return to the timeless realm of the Universal Womb of Oneness, from which we are reborn into this world once again as individuated souls. Our guest Maurice Fernandez is the author of Neptune, the 12th House, and Pisces. His book is being re-released as an updated edition in 2016. In his book Maurice provides a groundbreaking perspective on this most misunderstood archetype of the zodiac. br The 14 year transit of Neptune in its own sign of Pisces brings us closer to nature in its raw form, untouched by human intervention and contrivances. We find ourselves influenced by forces greater than us which we cannot control, such as earthquakes and tsunamis, and are confronted with environmental disasters. Connecting to the purer and simpler forms of the natural world gives us a greater appreciation of life, personally and collectively. Pisces’ global connection to life brings us true happiness.

If you only had to change 1 thing, to be happier and healthier, would you? br Astrology historian and social commentator, Jessica Murray, and show host Janey McCarthy, have a suggestion. br Start perceiving your world, your relationships, and yourself, as a place and a source, of Abundance instead of Scarcity! Once and for all discard that false Man-made lens of 'not-enough-ness'. br Because... IF your perceptions control your behaviors, and your consequent thoughts can take form with conscious intention and attention, then why not shift your senses toward Abundance instead of Scarcity and change your life's experience forever. br Discover what changes, when everything becomes an opportunity.

The Moon is in Sagittarius as we record this show, and soon the Sun will enter this uplifting mutable fire sign. Archetypal Sagittarius is the philosopher and sage, the world traveler and adventurer, and the freedom-loving gypsy and wanderer. Hear our guest Gahl Eden Sasson, international author, teacher, astrologer and expert on the Kabbalah, describe this optimistic sign and its quest for greater meaning in life. brbr Sagittarius helps us move from the dark, emotion-centered energy of Scorpio deeper into the shortening days of winter, culminating with the darkest day of the year at the Winter Solstice when the Sun moves into the sign of Capricorn. Gahl explains how Sagittarius gives us the antidote to darkness, and with its fire and light illuminates this darkest part of the yearly cycle. brbr With Saturn’s recent ingress into Sagittarius, we have nearly three years to learn the lessons Saturn wishes to teach us through Sagittarius: live in Truth, walk our talk, and manifest our vision.

Mark Borax, Soul Level Astrologer, masterfully describes the often vilified and misunderstood water sign of Scorpio. Mark explains how Scorpio’s greatest desire is to connect us to our Soul: our authentic core nature that accompanies us through all our life times. Our ego-identified self forgets our true nature, and keeps us separated from experiencing genuine Love. br Mark insists Scorpio's pure and natural desire to physically, emotionally and spiritually express love from our Soul has been grossly distorted in our culture, in our communication and entertainment industries. Even the astrological community is all too focused on the darker manifestations of Scorpio and ignores its life-giving and regenerative forces. Mark tells us how, like the archetypal Hero, we can face our fears and shadows, and experience the ‘death’ of our ego-identified self. He inspires us to look beyond illusory falsehoods, and connect with this primal, transformative energy so we can 'love our lives out.’

Currently the Sun is in Libra, and Mercury is moving retrograde through this cardinal air sign, focusing our thoughts and attention on how we relate to others. In this show we explore the Libra themes of relationships and cooperation, partnerships and collaboration, with astrologers and psychotherapists Hadley Fitzgerald and Judith Harte, co-authors of Images of Soul, Reimagining Astrology. Hear about their decades-long friendship and professional partnership, their individual perspectives and approaches to astrology and therapeutic practice, and how they came together to create their recently published book. Using the metaphor of the ‘acorn theory’ posited by archetypal psychologist James Hillman, Fitzgerald and Harte describe the horoscope as analogous to an acorn, which contains one’s unique soul code with a mysterious timepiece all its own. Astrology and psychotherapy inform and complement one another, helping us evolve in the direction of our own life’s calling.

Before the invention of the telescope, only the celestial bodies visible to the naked eye were used in astrology. Since the late 18th century, discoveries of new planets, asteroids, centaurs, trans-Neptunian and other objects in our solar system have been increasing the potential cast of characters that can be used in the horoscope. The feminine earth sign of Virgo is thought by many to be ruled by the asteroids. Using Virgo’s analytical skill, classification ability, and powers of synthesis we can use the asteroids in our horoscopes to gain a more perfect understanding of ourselves. Hear our guest, astrologer Jessica Adams explain why modern astrology is not complete unless we include the asteroids! Who are they? What archetypes do they represent in the Roman/Latin family tree? How do they round out the story of our horoscope and increase our self-understanding? Find out from Jessica which asteroids to include in your horoscope, and where you can find information about them.

There is a Native American prophecy, which states that when the planet of healing is discovered in the sky, the sacred warrior teachings will return to earth. - Larry Williamson, The Sacred Warrior Archetype. Chiron, representing the ‘Wounded Healer’ archetype in astrology, entered our cosmic consciousness relatively recently, in 1977. With its discovery, came heightened interest on the part of astronomers and astrologers to study and research the ‘maverick’ celestial bodies in our solar systems: asteroids, centaurs, minor planets and exoplanets. The time of its discovery coincides with the blossoming of the human potential movement, personal and global healing, and integrative and holistic sciences. Hear from special guest Zane B. Stein, Chironic astrologer and leading authority on Chiron. What does the Centaurean body Chiron represent in the astrological chart? How can we find the gift in our personal Chiron wound? Learn what Chiron teaches us, helps us heal and become whole.

The Sun is in the sign of Virgo this month, and keeping calm and carrying on is exactly what Virgo does! This modest, competent, no-nonsense earth sign is discriminating and discerning, scientific, conscientious and thorough in her efforts to create order and efficiency out of chaos. Virgo is dedicated to serving others. She strives to improve and perfect herself so that she can serve in higher and better ways. In this episode Mary Jo and Janey discuss a person in the entertainment industry who demonstrates the characteristics and traits of the Virgo archetype. We then look at Mary Jo and Janey’s composite chart and analyze its Virgo energy. Finally we talk about important current transits in the sign of Virgo and what they mean for us. The following three shows for the month will feature special guests talking about topics that pertain to the sign of Virgo: the Wounded Healer Chiron, the Asteroids, and Animal-Assisted Therapy. Listen in and then tell us about Virgo in your life!

Each of us has an Ego. We tend to project a manufactured self-image characterized by the roles we play, masks we wear, labels we acquire and images we devise. It is not our true self, our essence. Not knowing our true self keeps us off-balance, ungrounded and insecure. How can we understand our moments of indecision, poor choices, and self-undoing behaviors, which by default often become our path? The ancient Greeks interest in “Knowing Thyself” and developing the human psyche gave rise to what is known today as the Enneagram. Often described as a personality typing system, it illuminates our core issues and motivations, our imbalances, and the ways we tend to cope with life. Our guest Jessica Dibb is an expert in the magical and transformational workings of the Enneagram. Learn about the basic personality types and directions of growth and deterioration each takes. Understanding ourselves through the Enneagram, we can live with more freedom, operating from Essence instead of Ego.

Yes, it is true. We all have an “Inner Child,” who may have unconscious, and often unresolved fears, wounds and traumas. From these wounds defensive or aggressive behavior patterns instinctively arise, intending to protect us physically and emotionally from hurtful experiences of neglect, denial, abandonment, disapproval, abuse or some form of rejection. Fear not! As adults, we have a second chance to become our own best parents to our Inner Child. We can provide structure, support, supervision, and protection to our emotionally vulnerable self whenever our Child feels threatened or off-balance. Isn’t it time we found out how? Bring along your own chart and join our interview with two experts in the fields of psychology and karmic astrology. Our guests and former teachers, Linda and Michael Brady of Partners for Karmic Freedom, have made a career of conducting interventions with their clients and their Inner Children, helping them live healthier, happier, and more conscious lives.

What characteristics, traits and skills make a good leader? We heard on a previous show how heart-centered Leo inspires others with its enthusiasm, self-confidence and self-mastery. It is dignified and has respect for itself and others. Leo leaders attract people with their charisma, and encourage co-workers to grow and and shine in their abilities. Determined Leo uses its personal power to empower and support the success of others. Hear from our special guest Tiffani Lennon, author and lead researcher for the 2013 report Benchmarking Women’s Leadership in the United States. This groundbreaking study evaluates women’s progress as leaders across 14 sectors of life, from academia and journalism to business and politics. When women lead, their leadership improves an organization’s impact, employee retention, and profit. Ms. Lennon devotes much of her academic research and writing to issues of women’s leadership, as well as being a living example of that leadership.
