Erotic Devotion (formerly home-body podcast)

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
