Welcome to this edition of the EP podcast on “Venus RX in Capricorn” - where Spencer Michaud, Shu Yap, and I team up to dive into this major 40-day planetary transit that will be a highlight of December and January. First, we unravel Venus as an archetype, a few of her key myths, and what we get when we add a layer of Capricorn over the Goddess of Love and Balance. Her stationing on Pluto is a key component to this cycle, and we go over in-depth what it means for her underworld meeting, with both Hades and the nature of her retrograde cycle itself. There is a lot to unpack here so get ready for 2 hours of full-on Venus - from her role in our personal lives to that of the collective and all the aspects that are triggered along the way! 2021 goes out with a bang and we have a feeling she will be playing quite the role in it all. We do hope you enjoy our musings!

EP Podcast #122 w/ special guests Spencer Michaud & Shu Yap - Venus RX in Capricorn

Welcome to this edition of the EP podcast on “Capricorn Solstice Season 2021” - where Christina Caudill and I start off the broadcast sharing our natal nuggets of Capricornian wisdom while musing on the solstice pivot point and annual turning of the calendar year. There is a lot to unpack as this season holds the riveting dynamics of the final Saturn / Uranus square, Jupiter ingressing into Pisces, Venus and Mercury RXs, and the switching of the nodal axis from Gemini & Sagittarius to Taurus & Scorpio. Listen in as we walk you step-by-step through these poignant transits, with suggestions on how to consciously set the new year stage during this powerful astrological climate. Ps. For those of you who like looking at charts, there will be a YouTube version of this broadcast as well, so you can get a visual along with our commentary!

EP 125: Capricorn Solstice Season 2021 w/ special guest Christina Caudill

Welcome to this edition of the EP podcast on “Astrology & Personhood” - where Michael J. Morris and I have an in-depth discourse on how astrology as a system and a tradition offers several significant possibilities for how we might understand the nature of personhood.  We unpack how personhood is inherently relational, as we are constantly meeting the world in its many facets, and how we are highly complex “becomings” affected by the reductionism of limited social systems - including popular sun sign astrology. We hope you enjoy this richly philosophical conversation as much as we did!

EP 141: Astrology & Personhood w/ special guest Michael J. Morris

Welcome to this edition of the EP podcast on “Sagittarius Season 2022” - where Alicia Yusuf joins me to break down the much-anticipated return of enthusiasm and forward momentum Sagittarius season has to offer. First, we recap the Scorpio / Taurus eclipse season, sharing the quality of energy we noticed and how those signatures will transition in the season of mutable fire. In our astro riffing, we have Jupiter stationing direct on a Sag new moon, the influence of Venus and Mercury moving from Sagittarius to Capricorn, Neptune stationing direct, and the super lit up Mars RX full moon in Gemini. Are you ready for this blast of cosmic wildfire? We sure are!

Welcome to this edition of the EP podcast on “Gemini Season 2023” - where Jo O’Neill and I go Mercurial and break down all the bits and pieces of this year’s solar passage through the twins! First, we address how Taurus isn’t done with us yet as Jupiter gets settled, Mercury gains speed, and we start the season fresh off a new moon in the bull’s territory. We then walk you through a play-by-play of the transits in store, including the mutable moon cycles and Venus entering Leo for an extended stay. To wrap up, we address the bigger picture of Jupiter separating from the north node to make the opening sextile to Saturn in Pisces. The story is moving forward so it’s time to dial in our narrative!

Welcome to this edition of the EP podcast on “Mid-Year Recap + Venus RX In Leo” - where Gray Crawford and I reconvene to do a mid-year check-in with our 2023 year ahead forecast and do an in-depth treatment of the coming Venus RX in Leo transit. In the first third of the program, we recollect how January - June’s astrology played out in real time and what we think are the hot spot transits to come for the remainder of the year. We then dive into Venus’ summer retrograde in Leo and the characteristics we believe it will manifest based on cycles, myth, and planetary alignments. We concluded that Venus & Mars are running the rest of the 2023 show! Ready to get personal?

EP 158: Mid-Year Recap + Venus RX in Leo w/ special guest Gray Crawford

Welcome to this edition of the EP podcast on “Leo Season 2023” - where Spencer Michaud and I do an in-depth treatment of this lit up period that doesn’t have a lot of aspects but still packs a planetary punch. We start with our overview of Leo and its relation to the Taurus squares it will perform, and how that could place emphasis on environmental awareness… with the big question, what can we do as individuals to nurture the planet so all flora and fauna can thrive? Next, we go step-by-step through the transits, tackling the nodal shift, Venus RX, the lunations, and the eventual lead-up to an almost stationed Mercury. It’s gonna be a hot one! Are you ready to walk through the fire?

Welcome to this edition of the EP podcast on “Virgo Season 2023” - where Nicholas Polimenakos and I give you the skinny on the varying qualities of this mutable earth sign and the role that Mercury plays as ruler. There are many shifts taking place as it’s the month of planetary stations, so there is no doubt that the back-and-forth nature of the messenger planet will be emphasized! Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, and Uranus will all change direction in the skies and this will influence the twists and turns in what is already a transitioning narrative. It’s a big month, so adaptability will be needed, especially as we get closer and closer to the next eclipse season!

EP 160: Virgo Season 2023 w/ special guest Nicholas Polimenakos

Welcome to this edition of the EP podcast on “Libra Equinox Season 2023” - where Rachel Lang and I talk all things Libra as we do a detailed breakdown of the season ahead. This year’s equinox ushers in the next round of eclipses, and we can already feel the lead-up to what I’m deeming “The Great Rebalancer.” We talk about relationships being extra highlighted with Venus’ presence in the Aries full moon and Libra solar eclipse, and how the Sun / Mercury cazimi conjunct the south node and square Pluto will most certainly turn the death/rebirth tides. No stone is left unturned during the season of the scales… so get ready to return to equilibrium by initiating your new version of harmony!

Welcome to this edition of the EP podcast on “Scorpio Season 2023” - where C ‘Vivi’ Henriette and I break down the compost vibe that the season of the Scorpio has for us this year! Are you feeling like butterfly goo too?? We begin with the acknowledgment that we are deep in eclipse season and that the astrological current is clearing the way for the emerging dynamics of next Spring. Scorpio season has no shortage of impactful transits, as we finish up the Taurus / Scorpio eclipse cycle, Saturn stations direct, the new moon opposes disruptive Uranus, and the Sun / Mars synodic cycle starts all over again! So get ready… we’re headed for the transmutative force that is Scorpio!

Welcome to this edition of the EP podcast on “Sagittarius Season 2023” - For our Sag forecast episode, in the true style of the season, I decided to venture out and do something different! This podcast is an audio-only recording of my first live stream I hosted on YouTube on Sunday, Nov 19th at noon Pacific. In this episode, you’ll hear me going solo while I entertain the chat with music, sound effects, silly gifs, and a complete rundown of what Sag season has in store! I hope you find this alternative format fun and refreshing!

Welcome to this audio-only version of a special Mercury RX livestream I recorded on Dec 6th, 2023. As some of you may know from the last podcast episode, I’ve been dipping my toes in the YouTube livestream waters! Some juicy content was shared, and I didn’t want you audio-preferred listeners to miss out! In this special, I’ll discuss the ins and outs of the upcoming Mercury RX cycle in Capricorn and Sagittarius. Due to this being a live program, it will have a different dynamic than the usual podcast! I do hope you enjoy it nonetheless.

This is it, folks! Can you feel the winds of change blowing through every neck of the woods?

EP 3: Fall 2025 - DREAMS, FANTASY, & IMAGINATION w/special guest Michael J. Morris

Is the Saturn / Neptune cycle linked to environmental protection policy? In this episode, Mel sits down to talk with Zacc Powell about the presence of Saturn and Neptune in hard sign-based angles for major environmental policy in the US. We dole over the research of the past while looking ahead at the impending cycle—musing on what we may possibly see on the road ahead, especially given the red flags Mother Nature has been sending. If you’re into the well-being of the planet and its creatures, you’ll appreciate this episode!

EP 5: Fall 2025 - DISMEMBERING & REMEMBERING w/special guest Aerin Fogel

Welcome to this week’s EP podcast on “Cancer Eclipse Season 2020” - where Australian professional astrologer Cassandra Tyndall joins me to discuss this year’s dynamic Cancer season and what that may mean for us on a personal and global level. We cover both the solar and lunar eclipse and the plethora of transits in-between, including a 2nd new moon in Cancer (what?!), noting that this is bound to be an eventful period of cardinal activity! As two Cancers ourselves, we share our own insights into living the sign while providing words of advice at the end to make the most of this year’s crab walk.
