Welcome to this week’s EP podcast on “Astrology & Feminist Praxis” - where Columbus, Ohio astrologer, tarot reader, and witch Michael J. Morris joins me to discuss the multitude of layers that live behind the term feminism and how this concept can be interconnected within the astrological practice. Michael unpacks the definition behind feminism, stemming from their educational background based on Black feminist perspectives, and highlighting the need to have an intersectional approach and awareness of this topic. We dive into ways to cultivate connection through thinking things together that appear to be separate, making this a rich talk for practicing astrologers and dabblers alike. One of my favorite talks so far, I do hope you enjoy!

Welcome to this week’s EP podcast titled “Let’s Talk Pluto” - where I, Melissa LaFara, host a solo episode by taking on the topic of the Lord of the Underworld and its generational influence through the signs. Inspired by recent social media threads posing the question of if we should even use Pluto in chart work any longer, I decided I want to look at the demoted dwarf planet further in-depth. In this broadcast, I share NASA’s changing view on Pluto’s planetary status, the underlying traits of Pluto in regards to the transpersonal experience, and where I think the Pluto generations (Leo - Capricorn) will carry out their collective destiny. All with the conclusion that we most certainly should be looking at this planet… dwarf or not!
