    For our first episode of season 4, we welcome natural perfume pioneer, author, and educator, the absolutely iconic Mandy Aftel. In this episode we look at her natal chart, discuss her past life as a counsellor, get virtual a tour of her scent organ, learn about bibliomancy, dive into her latest book, Symbolorum, and hear all about her journey into the world of natural fragrance creation.

    Coven - Season 3, Episode 9: Arabella Thaïs

    Arabella Thais is a philosopher, writer, and researcher whose work explores the metaphysics of time, symbolic systems, and the aesthetic structure of reality. She is a Ph.D. candidate in philosophy and physics at the California Institute of Integral Studies, lectures internationally, and serves as a peer reviewer for the Journal of Theoretical and Applied Physics. Her research engages with retrocausality, depth psychology, and sacred number—drawing on influences from Heidegger to Hildegard von Bingen. Arabella is also the founder of The Temple of Truth, a mystery school devoted to consciousness, cosmology, and high-frequency living. We were honored to virtually sit down Arabella for our season finale, and as expected, this conversation was so rich and inspiring. We discussed a wide range of topics, from her perspectives of time, to chaos theory, to addiction, to petrichor as a state of consciousness, to her upcoming book "On Being and Becoming", to aspects in her own natal chart and so much more.

    Coven - Season 3, Episode 8: Clarice Lispector

    Clarice Lispector (1920-1977) was a linguistic alchemist, translator of the invisible, and stream of consciousness poet, best known for her novels, Agua Viva, Near to the Wild Heart, and The Passion According to G.H. Often compared to eccentric existential authors such as Albert Camus and stream of consciousness royalty like Virginia Woolf, Lispector remains undefinable, opting to linger in the land of the intangible and formless. The Ukrainian-born, Brazilian-raised writer left a legacy behind as a household name in much of Brazil, while remaining relatively obscure in the American zeitgeist. In this episode we discuss her natal chart, her limitless attitude, her trance like writing, her tumultuous upbringing, her natural genius, and her incredibly inspiring unbothered demeanor.

    Coven - Season 3, Episode 7: Becca Tarnas

    In this episode we had the pleasure to sit down with our mentor and professor, Becca Tarnas. Becca is a scholar, artist, and archetypal astrologer. She is currently a professor at the California Institute of Integral Studies, where she wrote her doctoral dissertation on the Red Books of Carl Jung and J.R.R Tolkien. She's also the author of Journey to the Imaginal Realm: A Reader’s Guide to J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings, an editor of Archai: The Journal of Archetypal Cosmology, and is working on a biography of transpersonal psychology legend, Stanislav Grof. In this conversation, we discuss everything from the history of archetypes and mythology, to her research on Stan Grof, to motherhood and the lens shift that followed, to her own natal chart, to her experiences being raised by the iconic archetypal astrologer and historian Rick Tarnas (author of "Cosmos and Psyche"), to the complexities of binaries, to the Witch vs the Wizard, and so much more.

    Coven - Season 3, Episode 6: Octavia Butler

    In this episode, we explore the life and work of Octavia E. Butler (1947-2006), a groundbreaking science fiction writer and visionary widely considered a prophet for her eerily accurate predictions about our current world.Born in Pasadena, California to a working-class Black family, Butler overcame poverty, dyslexia, and systemic barriers to become one of the first major Black women in science fiction. Her work explored themes of power, evolution, and survival through an unflinching examination of social issues, becoming foundational to Afrofuturism and feminist science fiction.Butler won the MacArthur "Genius" Fellowship in 1995, the first science fiction writer to receive this honor. Her most famous works include Kindred (1979), a time-travel novel confronting slavery's legacy, and the Parable series (1993-1998), set in 2024-2027, which predicted climate-fueled fires, political authoritarianism using the slogan "Make America Great Again," wealth inequality, and social collapse with startling precision.She passed away unexpectedly in 2006 at age 58, leaving behind an unfinished vision but a legacy that grows more relevant each year. As she once said: "I began writing about power because I had so little."Sources:"A Handful of Earth, A Handful of Sky: The World of Octavia E.

    Coven - Season 3, Episode 5: Maryam Mirzakhani

    Maryam Mirzakhani (1977 - 2017) was an Iranian mathematician and professor, and the first woman to win the Fields Medal (the highest award in mathematics, comparable to the Nobel Prize). She was a theoretical architect of spaces beyond our perceptible dimensions. By developing formulas that could measure Riemann surfaces moduli spaces, she helped to create form around them, allowing us to visualize new dimensions through the theoretical scaffolding she set up around it. In this episode we discuss her natal chart while attempting to unpack the brilliance of her work and mind.

    Coven - Season 3, Episode 3: Lucy Parsons

    In this episode we welcome “Goddess of Anarchy,” Lucy Parsons into our coven. Born into slavery at the tail end of the American civil war, Lucy fought oppression at every turn, quickly becoming one of the most feared radical voices in America, and was thought to be "more dangerous than 1000 rioters."She co-founded the Chicago Working Women's Union, led 400,000 people in the first ever May-day parade, spoke to crowds of thousands, and understood intersectionality before we had a word for it. After her husband was executed following the Haymarket affair, she got louder; traveling the world giving anarchist speeches, helping found the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW) in 1905, and always publishing her writing for the masses. After her death in 1942 (by mysterious house fire), the majority of her later works conveniently vanished...Sources:https://wams.nyhistory.org/industry-and-empire/labor-and-industry/lucy-parsons/https://shoeleatherhistoryproject.com/2020/06/27/happy-birthday-lucy-parsons/https://aas.princeton.edu/news/radical-existence-lucy-parsons-goddess-anarchyhttps://archive.iww.org/history/biography/LucyParsons/1/https://youtu.be/Ye7h0W4K_gU?si=VQM0YLBbVhJS6NMXhttps://historymatters.gmu.edu/d/5009/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucy_Parsonshttps://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/lucy-e-parsons-an-interview-with-lucy-parsons-on-the-prospects-for-anarchism-in-americahttps://www.thenation.com/article/archive/more-dangerous-than-a-thousand-rioters-the-revolutionary-life-of-lucy-parsons/
