Episode 12: What does Venus even do?

HELLO & WELCOME to Part Four of "What do the planets even do?" Astrology is the study of planetary movements and their correlation to earthly events. But while many of us are either trying to wrap our heads around sign significations or are deeply lost in the sauce of delineation, the foundation of astrological interpretation always comes back to a very simple question: What DO the planets even do? What is their motivation? What are they doing in the birth chart? How do we conceptualize the planetary actors in the play of our zodiacal life?  (okay so more than one question) In this series of mini-sodes, we'll create a capsule of key words, action phrases, and anecdotal examples to explore the base line of each planetary body zooming through the cosmos. Today, we dive deep into what our laughter-loving queen VENUS even does. Watch this episode on YouTube [https://youtu.be/R3kQarMRoBk]! [https://youtu.be/8F7pOuFu9lc] Follow us on Twitter!

Episode 10: What does the Moon even do?

HELLO & WELCOME to Part Two of "What do the planets even do?" As we know, astrology is the study of planetary movements and their correlation to earthly events. But while many of us are either trying to wrap our heads around sign significations or are deeply lost in the sauce of delineation, the foundation of astrological interpretation always comes back to a very simple question.

Episode 8: Asteroid Synastry with Ell the Asteroid Astrologer

HELLO & WELCOME to another episode of Primordial Threads! This week we are thrilled to welcome Ell the Asteroid Astrologer (known in the twittersphere as @stellarsanctum) on for a discussion about using asteroids not only in astrology, but in synastry as well!  Join us for a revelatory exploration of the stories hidden not only in the stars, but in the corners of our very own charts. Ell the Asteroid Astrologer [https://twitter.com/stellarsanctum] Website: https://stellarsanctum.wordpress.com/ Linktree: https://linktr.ee/stellar.sanctum Ell is an astrological force to be reckoned with, pioneering the relatively modern practice of asteroid astrology alongside practitioners such as Empress Atlantis & Michael J. Morris. This Aquarius sun, Scorpio moon, Leo rising describes herself as a “student of the stars; Maiden of magick, alchemy and anarchy,” and will simply not “settle for anything less than total embodiment of inner agency and free will.”  This perspective of radical agency permeates all they do, from providing deeply reflective workshops & readings to their recently released Approaching the Asteroids Guidebook [https://stellarsanctum.wordpress.com/approaching-the-asteroids-ebook/], which makes asteroid astrology accessible for all curious practitioners. An excerpt from Ell’s website: “One of my deepest fascinations lies with mythology and the archetypal wisdom these ancient tales have to offer. This, combined with a sentiment for childhood and all of it’s psychological residue, has brought me into practice with the asteroids in astrology. Through my exploration of the asteroids (which tend to be named after key figures in mythology) it has been revealed to me just how connected we are to these stories. As often is the case, this alignment we have with archetypal energy can be somewhat unconscious in nature. It’s as if we are being driven by an invisible force, playing out stories that have been played out time and time again by humans, as portrayed by the gods and goddesses in mythology. Mythology is, after all, simply a collection of stories constructed with the purpose of conveying these very fundamental aspects of the human psyche.” Let us know your thoughts on this episode by tweeting us @PrimordialThrds on Twitter [https://twitter.com/primordialthrds/]  -  and follow us for updates on the astrology D&D campaign we have brewing!!

Episode 5: Family Synastry with Ryan Kush

HELLO & WELCOME to our first episode on Family Synastry! Today we welcome our good friend Ryan Kush onto the show to discuss how family dynamics show up in synastry. Everyone's family has their own "quirks," but have you ever wondered why certain family members seem to stick like glue while others are magnets for conflict? In this episode, we explore the patterns we've noticed within our own families' astrology and delineate how these placements show up in the family dynamics. Studying the astrology present in our family systems has been a huge catalyst for healing & understanding in our own lives, so we hope this will be a good place to start if you're curious about your own family synastry! This episode has trigger warnings for difficult topics regarding family systems that include abuse, abandonment, & conflict. Please listen responsibly. RYAN KUSH is an astrologer & diviner who has been actively studying tarot since 2015 and astrology since 2018 (unless you count the lifetime of interest in Sun sign astrology that preceded this). They have provided professional readings since early 2020. Ryan describes astrology & tarot as fascinating and ethereal experiences which have given him a fresh, more assured sense of identity & perspective. He seeks to share his knowledge & expertise with his clients on their journeys of self-discovery & understanding!
