Venus, the Full Moon, and Mercury push us to find risk, courage, and competition while asking how do I be myself and how do we be together? Mary Grace guides us through Venus conjoining the Sun in Aries, the Full Moon in Libra, Mercury moving into Aries, shares a channeled message about finding creativity in limitations, and concludes with the poem by Melissa Broder.

“It’s okay for us to be wrong...the question is: can we be in right relationship to ourselves and others so that when the moment arises we can see.” Rachelle Knowles and Mary Grace float through building relationships with integrity; the connection between creativity and resilience; introversion and sensitivity; the necessity of tenderness and non-hierarchical leadership; and interacting with the invisible and the erotic.

She also  reads + discusses ceremony in regards to a passage from from Braiding Sweetgrass from Dr. Robin Wall Kimmerer and she shares a channeled message about our perspectives on isolation and holistic integration.

“Grief doesn’t have to eat us alive.” Today's guest Yarrow Magdalena shares practices of ritual, finding ways to be with grief, moments of forced stillness, getting off of Instagram, cocooning, embracing the idea of “enough” in a world that encourages constant production, and the gift of looking from the margins.

We also discuss

• (9:47)  How ritual doesn’t have to be complicated, it can be small, simple acts that remind you of what it means to be alive
• (10:23) A short summary of their book “Rituals - Simple & Radical Practices For Enchantment In Times Of Crisis”
• (12:08) Mary Grace on ritual as a way of honoring the embodiment of her experience
• (16:07) “Grief doesn’t have to eat us alive.” Yarrow offers a small grief practice
• (18:49) Water as another medium to work with grief
• (20:00) Maybe comparing our pain to other’s pain is not the most constructive way to interact with it in the moment
• (21:17) On how beautiful stillness can be; how ritual widens and deepens our capacity to deal with stillness
• (22:17) On their experience with Instagram
• (29:39) “Technology can sometimes facilitate consumption without digestion.”
• (34:42) Cocooning allows for sacred transformation
• (39:04) Yarrow on living cyclically, making space for contraction and stagnation and then the joyful spring of building
• (39:30) On cultivating the value of not knowing, taking breaks
• (39:51) To accept that endless growth is a capitalist illusion
• (40:00) “Human bodies are not made to be in endless growth.”
• (44:49) Queerness and seeing from the margins

The Sun and Venus enter Pisces later on this month to bring some salve to February 2021 astrology. Mary Grace encourages us to widen our consciousness and examine the big picture through a lens of yes/and or both/and. She further explores what it means to have a practice of neutrality; how being human both is and isn’t safe; how taking courage is a necessary part of the healing process. She wraps the episode with a channeled message to remind us that courage comes from kindness and a poem by Lucille Clifton. 

In the episode /

• (4:48) Sun in Pisces is a move towards the mystical and the poetic
• (6:12) Exalted Venus in Pisces brings us into “the glamor of the imaginal”
• (7:30) Sun and Venus mixing with Neptune
• (10:33) More thoughts on neutrality, Alan Watts + the difference between being a “neutral person” and having a practice of neutrality
• (15:04) Being human isn't safe. It's brave.
• (18:56) ... but also being human is safe. We are all already here.
• (21:41) Channeled message for the New Moon in Aquarius lunation 
• (26:51) Compassion to hold yourself. Compassion to hold others
• (30:20) “blessing the boats” by Lucille Clifton

Why does self-care = overconsumption? Isaias Hernandez (aka @queerbrownvegan) discusses the relationship between human and animal injustices, how queerness and diversity are inherent in nature, the danger of perfectionism in the zero-waste movement, and how you may already be practicing conscious consumerism without knowing it.

We also discuss / 

• (16:03) How queerness impacts his understanding of the natural world
• (17:09) Nature allows and embraces queer identities
• (21:08) How his work today is advocating for the liberation of humans and animals while understanding that not everyone can adapt a plant-based lifestyle
• (26:08) “Why is it that self-care has to be rooted in overconsumption?”
• (35:09) “The lifestyle movement has perpetuated perfectionism, which is misleading...”
• (39:00) “You probably do live sustainably even if you don’t identify those actions as sustainable.”
• (43:53) Isaias discusses the climate scale and climate mental health
