a modern priestess

My guest on this, the 33rd and final episode of Season 1, is Greyson Kirby. Greyson is deeply committed to the path of personal alchemy as the Temple Keeper of the Archetype of Initiator.

Greyson talks about empowering ourselves to speak truth in the face of relationships and situations being cut from our lives. She views this as an opportunity to hold ourselves in compassion and choose another way. She says that the Initiator won’t give you the answer that you want, but the answer that is true.

Greyson is a Focalizer in the 13 Moon Mystery School and is a Scent Priestess as well as being an artist who creates watercolor Soul Charts based on astrological natal charts.

This concludes the 33rd episode of a modern priestess, and the end of our first season. I so appreciate all of the incredible guests that I’ve been blessed with hosting here, and with your presence as a listener.

My prayer is that this podcast has helped serve in the re-awakening of the Divine Feminine here on Gaia. Thank you for being a part of this re-evolution! More will be revealed.

Blessed be!

Melanie Kay has dedicated her life to a path of service to the Earth's Ascension. In this episode we talk about Galactic Consciousness and the Journey of 13 as the primary template for evolutionary advancement - She states that when we understand the pattern of the 13 and embody it, we are indeed increasing our resonance with the natural world, therefore increasing synchronicity and magical realism in our lives.


We discuss her magic carpet ride to the major vortices of the planet and the changing of the primary geometry of Gaia from a merkaba to a dodecahedron, and what that actually means.

Melanie is a Licensed Somatic Psychotherapist, Reiki Master, Galactic High Priestess and Ascension Researcher. Her work can be found at www.starbodyearth.com

So many women in popular culture today are presenting themselves as sexually empowered feminists, when what they’re actually doing is co-opting the masculine paradigm of power over, by using seduction. It’s taken me a lifetime to unlearn this upside down dynamic and come to truly embody the empowered, primal, sovereign being I am just beginning to reclaim. This episode is a reflection on that journey.

The awakening of the Divine Feminine in men is so beautifully embodied in my next guest, Bogar Argon Carrillo. Argon is a healer, an artisan and a modern day alchemist. He shares the story of his journey to the US and the synchronicities that resulted in turning his life in a whole new direction. He talks about accepting an invitation to make sacred tools that he had never before made before. Or so he thought… Argon discloses a wish of healing the world through the honor of anointing and shares the incredible process in how his holy anointing oils came to be.

In this episode, my guest Erika Czerwinski, reflects on her deep and pleasurable connection with the Goddess of Love and discusses how working with archetypes of the Divine Feminine can help pull forth frequencies that can feel less accessible to us— allowing us to more fully develop and dwell within all  faces of the goddess. 

Dr. Erika maintains a clinical psychology practice working with couples and individuals. She leads ceremony as an initiated priestess and specializes in walking people through the wilderness of the mind and soul. She is devoted to reconnecting people with their divine nature so they may live the truth of who they are.

For so much of the collective, a discussion of the blood mysteries is such a taboo. In 2017 my guest, Damascena, had the opportunity to participate in a Blood Mystery Initiation, called Priestesses of the Moon. Working as a certified childbirth and postpartum doula, she now uses this feminine alchemy to help her clients address challenges to conception and restoring menstrual health. She believes that in meeting themselves deeply in the bosom of The Great Mother, they are able to heal and transmute blocks, traumas and toxic imprints, priming the womb for conscious conception.

Carly Reynolds lives and breathes as the Muse. In this episode, I receive a huge dose of delightful Muse therapy with invitations to novelty and spontaneity, as well as having had a simultaneous initiation to re-connect with my Divine Child. I love how She orchestrates life!

Carly is the artist behind Mata Hari's Daughter, where she offers headdresses made from vintage and antique materials.  Her new venture, Saga Luna, offers archetypal and ceremonial headwear, soon to expand into other adornments, jewelry, sacred art and altar objects.

Things heat up in my conversation with Sacred Activist Lettie Sullivan as she reminds us of the importance of keeping our feet in the fire around issues of race. We dive into the crisis of embodiment that continues to perpetuate the duality thinking that keeps us from seeing and feeling the nuance and complexity that is the sacred third in issues of racism, anti-racism and the denial of the Sacred Feminine.

Lettie is a priestess in the 13 Moon Lineage and the Creatrix of the Goddess Ministry, an organization whose mission is to help anchor spiritual practices centered in the Divine Feminine archetypes, metaphysical principles and cosmic time cycles. Lettie is also an inspirational speaker, a professional organizer, a life coach, and an author. 

Lettie is a senior priestess and mentor in Priestess Presence, an online temple space with more than 19,000 members, and on behalf of the temple, has been leading Eclipsing Injustice, a series of ritual events to heal racial trauma and amplify love.  You can learn more about Lettie and her work at lettiesullivan.com.

*Lettie later noted that the Japanese term she was referring to is Kintsugi, meaning golden joinery, rather than Kaizen, meaning continuous improvement - one of her personal values.

The proper use of the sword in alignment with the archetype of the Lady of Communion - whether it be in speaking for social justice or speaking truth in relationship is just a part of what I explore today with my guest, Eden Amadora. Eden is an ordained priestess of the 13 Moon Mystery School, an archetypal voice & embodiment coach, ceremonial singer, and prayer-formance artist. She happens to be the singer and songwriter for our podcast theme.

Eden is a speaker, coach, mentor and spiritual guide. She is a featured author in The New Feminine Evolutionary, Sacred Body Wisdom and Divine Reunion. She is a master facilitator, archetypal channel, a mystic and a muse. 

Eden offers a profoundly safe and sacred space as a spiritual guide on this journey of awakening through the Sun Heart Initiations, the 13 Moon Priestess Initiation Circles, retreats, self-development training and private and group mentoring for women on the priestess path and men on their journey of soulful mastery. ​

Vanessa Jade is a survivor of child sex trafficking and ritual abuse within an elite network of pedophiles. Her healing journey has spanned many years, many mentors, and much powerful and deep transformational inner work and alchemy. Along the way, she became certified in many different healing traditions. Of all of the work she has done, her initiations as a Priestess proved to be some of the most transformational in terms of her ability to embody her sovereignty once again.

Today Vanessa’s passion is to guide women through the process of transforming their inner victim into a sovereign creator so that they can speak their truth and express themselves fully in the world. In addition to helping others reclaim their voice, Vanessa regularly lifts her voice in the media to speak for others who have lived through similar experiences and are not able to speak up. 

Vanessa is an Initiated Priestess of the 13 Moon Mystery School, Sacred Sovereignty Coach, author, and founder of the Rose Temple Sisterhood.
