A Witchcraft Protocol for Acting While Marked

THE WOUND OF WILLCapricorn Pressure, Chiron in Aries, and the Rewriting of Authority

January 11–16
(with Venus ingressing Aquarius on January 17)

This episode is an astrological reading.

We are working with pattern,
timing,
and cause moving through form.

Astrology does not predict.
It describes conditions.

What matters is not certainty,
but awareness.

Bring your attention to the moment you are in.

The sky is already speaking.

We begin by listening.

This is the first full moon of the year.

The moon is not new.
It has been gathering light beneath the surface,
silent as breath before release.

In the early hours of January 3rd, it is full in Cancer —
the moon at home in itself,
not appeasing, not performing.
It governs the tides of feeling,
shelter, and belonging. 

Something has been turning.

Not suddenly.
Not dramatically.
But in the way seasons turn—quietly, inevitably, asking for attention.

This podcast is beginning anew. 

Musings on the New Moon in Capricorn.

My first Lost Episode!

When I went to upload this interview on the Full Moon in Gemini 2023, it disappeared, but it has shown up in my files. I thank whatever spirit it was that brought it back. And, to think, we are currently in Mercury Retrograde.

Brigid currently runs Chthonia as a full-time venture at the website https://chthonia.net, including the podcast, a school called Scholars of the Borderland, a life-coaching practice, and her publications, which include an academic work (Death and the Maiden), two novels (Medb and The Morrigan Timelines) and one short story collection (Archetype Possession). She has a new book coming out entitled Phantom Queen: Encountering the Morrigan, for Theion Publishing (projected release 2024).

Some musings on the New Moon. Just a short episode this lunation.

On this Full Moon, I sit with Maryanna Aster, Astrologer Poet from Portland, OR. We discuss Astrology, Tarot, and the world we are in.
