The 12th House-Our In Utero Experience

The Madonna and the Whore: A Conversation with Louise Harkins

In this episode, I sit down with Louise Harkins for a rich, honest conversation about the Madonna/Whore complex—how it lives in our bodies, relationships, creativity, and sense of self-worth far beyond the textbook definition. We explore where this split comes from, how it quietly shapes desire and shame, and what it costs us when women are taught to be either “pure” or “powerful,” but never fully whole. Together, we talk about reclaiming erotic truth, softening internalized judgment, and creating space for complexity instead of polarity. This conversation is an invitation to notice the stories you’ve inherited about femininity, sexuality, and goodness—and to imagine what becomes possible when those stories loosen their grip. We’re also excited to extend this dialogue beyond the podcast and into lived experience. Join us for an in-person circle on February 21 from 1–3 PM at Evolve Academy in Charleston, South Carolina, where we’ll gather to explore, reflect, and integrate this work together in community. If this episode resonates, you’re not meant to sit with it alone. ✨ Sign up link for the workshop! https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-madonna-the-whore-the-split-woman-tickets-1981322014481?sg=1493829983296a08aa8219d49e6d201a3e4b6ef03c6ba596d5679ece551ab8adbe34924c4819fda977556c224598fb17be1284d3aea9cb4f9021c1f086451f59c674bc17b2c2511191e5fd09f4&aff=ebdsshios [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-madonna-the-whore-the-split-woman-tickets-1981322014481?sg=1493829983296a08aa8219d49e6d201a3e4b6ef03c6ba596d5679ece551ab8adbe34924c4819fda977556c224598fb17be1284d3aea9cb4f9021c1f086451f59c674bc17b2c2511191e5fd09f4&aff=ebdsshios] Louise’s Website ✨ https://www.mappingmatrescence.com [https://www.mappingmatrescence.com]

The Red Tent Revival

In this episode, Margi (The Feminine Astrologer) and Madeleine McDonald (@thebadassbohemian) return to a theme close to their hearts—the Red Tent. Though we’ve shared before about what the Red Tent is, this conversation is a revival: a reminder that the Red Tent is not bound to one gathering, time, or place. It is a current that lives on in every woman, an archetype that never dies. We speak about how the Red Tent continues to rise in the modern world, what women can expect at the one Margi is hosting, and why these spaces matter now more than ever. This is an episode about remembrance, resilience, and the timeless sanctuary that women carry within.

Reclaiming Venus: Healing the Wounded Feminine with Iana Lahi

In this powerful and tender episode of Dancing the Feminine, I’m joined by healer, teacher, and sacred feminine guide Iana Lahi for a deep dive into the Venus archetype—and what it really means to reclaim your worth, sensuality, and feminine truth. Together, we explore: * The mythic roots of Venus as Aphrodite and Inanna * How patriarchal distortion reshaped the feminine * The survival patterns many women still carry in their nervous systems * The shift from fallen Venus to empowered Venus * The role of self-devotion, pleasure, and embodiment in healing * My own personal journey with Venus and the healing I experienced through Iana’s work This is not a conversation about becoming more desirable. It’s about coming home to yourself. 🔗 Read the full blog post on Reclaiming Venus → https://www.ianalahi.com/venus [https://www.thefeminineastrologer.com/blog/reclaiming-venus] 🌹 Experience Iana Lahi’s Venus Healing Meditation→ https://www.ianalahi.com/venus [https://www.ianalahi.com/venus] 🔮 Book a Feminine Astrology Reading with Margi → https://www.thefeminineastrologer.com/work-with-me [https://www.thefeminineastrologer.com/work-with-me]
