AstroCast is Born

Black Moon Lilith, Sacred Clown of the Fringe

In this episode of Astrocast, Astro Phil shares his findings on the Black Moon. Lilith is not evil or amoral, but rather a deviant in truth, someone hardwired to honor their own internal code and destined to live on the fringe and maintain the edges of the human experience. Phil traces the Lilith archetype through its youthful obsession with extremes (poison, fire, blades, theft) to its mature expression in metalwork, sweat ceremonies, body art, DMT and the therapeutic testing of limits. He then surveys seven cultural manifestations of the Lilithian sacred clown: the European court jester and Hopi Mudheads to the Japanese Tengu, Dogon Yurugu, Aztec Tlazōlteōtl, Shakespearean fool, and Pueblo Koshare.

Living Between the Lunar Nodes

From the front porch on a drizzly day, Phil pushes back against the popular astrological notion that the South Node is a past life to jettison and the North Node is a future to pursue. Through plumbing metaphors, clogged chimneys, and the myth of King Erysichthon, he reframes the lunar nodes as a paired system that only works in balance. He critiques the North Node’s capitalist undercurrents, questions the spiritual pressure to constantly “evolve” away from our roots, and invites listeners to consider the quiet power of receptivity, the South Node’s grace, and the wisdom of the middle ground.

Ceres and Chiron - Core Principles and the Hypocrite

In Episode 4 of AstroCast, we move beyond the conventional interpretation of the asteroid Ceres as the "divine mother" and explore a much more complex and timely archetype: Ceres as the keeper of principle, and with Chiron, the wounds we carry when our principles clash with our need for each others. Against the backdrop of a rare Ceres-Chiron conjunction, host Phil weaves together personal homesteading stories, the Greek tragedy of Antigone, and a meditation on the inescapable hypocrisy of modern life. The episode asks a hard question: when standing on principle costs us our relationships, our community, or our belonging, was it worth it?

Lost Planet Maldek and Our Ruptured (?) Solar System

In this AstroCast, Astro Phil traces the historical split between astrology and astronomy, arguing that these long separete fields are beginning to overlap. Using the hypothetical planet Maldek—a theorized world that exploded to form the asteroid belt—as a central example, Phil connects the 18th-century Titius-Bode law with channeled histories from figures like Edgar Cayce and a surprising modern paper that models the solar system as a quantum superconductor. This model suggests Maldek's destruction was a catastrophic rupture in spacetime itself, leading to a profound philosophical question: is our solar system, and by extension the human experience, incomplete?

Spacetime Coding is Your Spirit DNA

In this episode, Phil debunks the viral myth that your zodiac sign has "changed" and explores why modern astrology often feels vague and confusing. He then delivers his Astro Manifesto, introducing the concept of "spacetime coding," a precise method that moves beyond sun signs and fuzzy houses to reveal the specific, subtle truths of your personal makeup and timing.
