01 Nov 202428. Essential Dignity 7: Mutual Reception 00:27:44

Just like staying at your buddy's place can be nicer than staying in a rental hosted by a stranger, having planets in mutual reception with each other can provide support and resourcing that can strengthen the condition of a planet.

In this podcast episode, astrologers Alicia Cielle Heiser @aliciacielle and Lori Kaufman @lorik_127 discuss mutual reception in a birth chart. We go over how to identify and interpret planets in mutual reception. We also discuss the nuance of whether mutual reception counts if the planets are in aversion to each other.

NOTE: Alicia was thinking on the fly in this episode trying to come up with an example of two exalted planets being in mutual reception. She used the Sun in Aries and Mars in Capricorn as an example, which is NOT a form of mutual reception as Mars in Capricorn is not in the sign ruled by the Sun (Leo). In fact, it is impossible to have two exalted planets in mutual reception, which is why Alicia couldn't think of an example off the cuff in the episode...

22 Mar 202414. A Simple, Potent and Ancient Technique - Sect in Astrology00:39:55

Were you born during the day or night? This simple distinction can have a big influence on how your birth chart and life unfold. Do you embody a more solar or lunar way of being, and how does that show up in your life? Is Jupiter your greatest helper, or do you vibe more to the rhythms of Venus? Sect is a central technique in ancient Hellenistic astrology and a very simple approach that you can start integrating into your astrological toolkit right now.


How to determine the sect of your birth chart: first, find the ascendant - this is where the horizon was when you were born. Then, look for the Sun in your birth chart. If it is above the horizon, you have a day chart and the Sun was visible when you were born. If the Sun is below the ascendant/descendant axis then you have a night chart.


Day sect planets: Sun, Jupiter, Saturn

Night sect planets: Moon, Venus, Mars

05 Apr 202415. Astrology and Music01:25:18

Astrology and music are two fields that have always been inextricably related. When you look back across ancient histories, the boundaries between these two lineages begin to dissolve. In this podcast episode, Elias Romero Hampton chats with Alicia Cielle Heiser and Lori Kaufman about the parallels between astrology and music. We discuss the difference between solar and lunar ways of being and how this translates to a variety of musical expressions.

01 Feb 20248. Tracking Your Shifting Rhythms with Secondary Progressed Moon Phases00:20:11

Working with secondary progressed Moon phases is a great way to understand how our energy, fortune and vitality shifts over time. Knowing what phase your progressed Moon is in can tell you whether you're in a life phase of gathering resources or a time more focused on releasing, resting and letting go. In this episode, astrologers Lori Kaufman and Alicia Cielle Heiser discuss how to interpret progressed Moon phases in an astrological birth chart.


This episode builds on topics we discussed in 2 previous episodes. If you'd like to learn more about how to interpret Moon phases, please listen to our episode here. And if you'd like to learn more about how to work with secondary progressions, you can find that episode here.


Our Moon phase episode discusses how to determine your natal Moon phase in your birth chart based on the placements of your natal Sun and natal Moon. To determine your progressed Moon phase, use the same technique but look at the relationship between your progressed Sun and progressed Moon. So if your progressed Sun is in Sagittarius and your progressed Moon is in Pisces, your progressed Moon would be in its waxing crescent or waxing first quarter phase, depending on the distance between the planets. If you're confused about calculating your progressed Moon phase, please reach out on Instagram or leave us a comment and we'll help you figure it out!

31 May 202420. Asteroid Stories - Okyrhoe00:55:55

02 May 202417. The Myth of Cassandra and Taylor Swift00:33:36

The myth of Cassandra is a powerful allegory for the importance of listening to and believing women and the consequences that can come when we don't.

13 Sep 202425. Essential Dignity 5: Triplicity and Community Support00:22:09

Just as our lives are nuanced, the condition of each planet in our chart requires the consideration of multiple factors. When a planet has triplicity strength, it is stronger and more capable of bringing about positive significations for the life of an individual. Tangibly, this can show up as community support in relation to the topics the planet is in charge of in your chart. 

In this podcast episode, astrologers Alicia Cielle Heiser and Lori Kaufman explain how to determine a planet’s triplicity strength and what that means when interpreting an astrological birth chart.

This episode builds off of material we discuss in our episode about sect. If you are unfamiliar with sect doctrine, we highly recommend you start with our episode “14. A Simple, Potent and Ancient Technique - Sect in Astrology” before digging into this triplicity episode.

TRIPLICITY LORDS BY ELEMENT:

  • AIR - Saturn (day charts); Mercury (night charts); Jupiter (cooperating)
  • FIRE - Sun (day charts); Jupiter (night charts); Saturn (cooperating)
  • EARTH - Venus (day charts); Moon (night charts); Mars (cooperating)
  • WATER - Venus (day charts); Mars (night charts); Moon (cooperating)

23 Feb 202412. Asteroid Stories - Philomela and Weaving Grief into Art00:32:33

One of the most impactful ways to work with asteroids astrologically is to use them to determine which mythic stories you embody in your lifetime. Storytelling can be a deeply healing experience that connects us backwards and forwards across time through the lineage of oral tradition.


In this episode, astrologer Hannah Piper Burns talks about the mythic story of Philomela who weaves the grief of her tragedy into a tapestry. The story of Philomela can be captured through tracking her asteroid in an astrological chart. Philomela is a powerful being who can prompt us to speak the unspeakable and transform tragedy into beauty.

Having a planet in their own bounds can be a secret superpower that greatly strengthens the planet’s ability to bring about positive significations in your life. Like being a teacher in a classroom, a planet’s bound lord sets the terms and rules for the conditions under which the planet can operate. 

In this podcast episode, astrologers Alicia Cielle Heiser and Lori Kaufman discuss the significance of assessing the bound rulers of each planet in your chart for a full understanding of the nuanced environment in which your natal planets function.

Herbalism and astrology are both incredible tools to bring more health, vitality and harmony into your life. Working with these two symbiotic modalities allows us to weave together the power of the land and skies.

In this podcast episode, Senami Morris joins Alicia Cielle Heiser and Lori Kaufman to give tips and insight on how we can use herbalism and astrology to care for our nervous systems.

15 Nov 202429. The Power of Pilgrimage with Jason Holley01:30:09

Pilgrimage is a profound way to travel in honor of the sacred and liminal. In this podcast episode, astrologers Alicia Cielle Heiser and Lori Kaufman chat with our teacher Jason Holley about a pilgrimage to Greece that he recently organized in which we participated.

We discuss the importance of being in relationship with land, deities, animals and humans to move into generative ways of being rather than relying on extraction. We also dig into the power of myth and give suggestions to listeners for ways to engage in pilgrimage without having to leave your home. Jason has an evocative and poetic way of describing things and we think you'll really enjoy this episode with him!

30 Aug 202424. Essential Dignity 4: Planets in Fall01:44:24

When a planet is in fall, it is in the sign opposite of its place of exaltation and can struggle with reputation and visibility. It is in an environment contrary to its essential nature and often can act in ways different than what society expects. This can bring difficulties for someone’s life, but there are also benefits with having a planet that doesn’t express themself the way society expects them to.

In this podcast episode, our good friend Hannah Piper Burns joins Lori Kaufman and Alicia Cielle Heiser again to continue our discussion of essential dignity. We talk about the nuance of having a planet in fall and go through the 7 traditional planets and how they show up in their fallen archetypes. 

PLACES OF PLANETARY FALL:

Saturn is in fall in Aries

Jupiter is in fall in Capricorn

Mars is in fall in Cancer

The Sun is in fall in Libra

Venus is in fall in Virgo

Mercury is in fall in Pisces

The Moon is in fall in Scorpio

21 Jan 20247. A Powerful Timing Technique: Secondary Progressions00:37:51

While our natal charts are a snapshot of the sky at the moment we were born, the planets keep moving and their progressions can indicate how we grow and evolve over time. Secondary Progressions is a great timing technique to understand our internal pulses and rhythms as we move through life. In this episode, Astrologers Alicia Cielle Heiser and Lori Kaufman talk about how to work with Secondary Progressions as a timing technique and how to interpret progressions when reading a natal chart.
