In part 2 of our Roman Lore mini series we're catapulting in time from Ancient Rome into the present day! 🏟️ First off, it’s crucial to parse out the differences in Greek versus Roman lore because it can be a bit of a tangled web… This era does however permeate our current day and age through proverbs, pop culture reimaginings, and viral online trends — can you guess which ones?

Keep listening as Renee draws the Roman Lore story of Vesta into modern times through the astrological lens. You’ll hear natal chart examples and significations, as well as a retrospective and forecast into the 2026 transits of this special dwarf plant! Make sure to use the links below to look up your natal Vesta placement as you follow along ❤️‍🔥

"O Roma nobilis, orbis et domina.” (O noble Rome, mistress of the world.) – anonymous

Thinking about Ancient Rome typically conjures images of gladiators fighting in the colosseum, but what about the lives of women? In this premiere episode of the Roman Lore mini series, Renee explores forgotten stories, the power and tragedy of the Vestal Virgins, and how the rise of Christianity reshaped Roman society. This conversation will leave you pondering who gets remembered from history, and who gets erased 😶‍🌫️

Ever wondered how the ancient Greeks tried to read the future? 🔮 In the concluding episode of our Greek Lore mini series, Renee dives into some unusual (and surprisingly creative) divination practices from the panhellenic period.

In part 2 of our Greek Lore mini series we're reaching forward in time from the panhellenic era into the present day! 🏛️ We may not have a chariot, toga, or high priestess oracle to guide us, but the cultural impact on daily lives is clear within our language, celebrations, sports, and divination tools.

Listen in for the fascinating history of a women-only festival, origin of the modern Olympic Games, and ways English speakers echo stories that are over two thousand years old. How much of our world is truly contemporary versus deeply shaped by this lore?

Welcome to the first cultural mini series of the season! Cuddle up for story time as we glide gently into the world of Greek Lore – stories that are still alive, symbolic, and deeply human. From Athena and her owl to Zeus, Prometheus, Hera, and Heracles, this episode weaves mythology with personal reflections.

Lore doesn’t have to be locked away in the past. Rather, it’s something still rippling through our language and modern life. Slow down, get curious, and remember that this is only the first chapter of our spiritual exploration… 🇬🇷🕯️
