    Understanding the Natal Chart with Becca Neighbor (Astrologer and Singer/Songwriter)

    On our latest episode, I interview Becca Neighbor: Astrologer and Singer-Songwriter about making sense of the Natal Chart (aka Birth Chart) in Astrology! Her intuitive method of reading the birth chart highlights key placements illustrating the blessings and challenges inherent in each chart, with the goal of enhancing self-awareness and self-compassion. We also discuss Becca’s journey in navigating her neurodivergent brain, tarot and astrology as shadow work tools, and symbols of the divine feminine in dreams. Enjoy! Becca’s song featured in the episode is “Losing Grip” Follow Becca’s work and various projects here! ⁠⁠⁠⁠Psyche Magic Website, Socials and more!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ More on Becca Neighbor: Twangy, laid-back melodies with a cosmic twist. Drawing from indie rock, folk, country, and pop influences, Neighbor’s music is a glittery fusion inspired by the Wizard of Oz, her Taurus rising, Nada Surf’s “Blonde on Blonde”, and Patsy Cline on vinyl. Neighbor’s Nashville yellow brick road led her to tour managing outlaw country artist and “Highway Queen” Nikki Lane, who graciously gave her an acoustic set at the Stagecoach music festival in 2018. A few years later she managed Dualtone record label’s artist curated vinyl subscription service Magnolia Record Club. When the tornado of 2020 kicked off her Saturn return she found herself back in Ohio for a few years to reconnect. In 2022 she made her eventual return to music city with a fresh perspective and a desire to create. Recently she has been helping behind the curtain of the local non-profit Girls Write Nashville, launching her astrology business, and will be releasing new music in fall of 2024!

    Tarot for Transformation with Sam Burton (Singer/Songwriter and Tarot Reader)

    On this long-anticipated episode, I got to sit down with singer/songwriter Sam Burton to talk about the role that practices like Tarot and Jungian dream work have played in his personal growth and resulting creative endeavors/artistic career. We also discussed the evolution of his method of reading Tarot for others, and the delicate ethical considerations of this vulnerable but powerful work. Sam’s song featured in the episode is “I Can Go With You” Follow Sam’s work and various projects here and here! ⁠⁠⁠⁠Psyche Magic Website, Socials and more!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ More on Sam Burton: Born and raised outside of Salt Lake City, Sam Burton moved to LA to pursue music. In the last year he toured with Loving and Jose Gonzalez. He recently wrapped up a three-week residency at Los Angeles' Club TeeGee, and will head out on the road with Weyes Blood and Indigo Sparke in the coming months. To coincide with the news of his signing to Partisan Records, Burton has released the new song “Maria.” “Maria” was produced by Jonathan Wilson (Angel Olsen, Father John Misty, Margo Price) at his Topanga Canyon Studio with some of the best studio players in LA, and perfectly showcases Burton's knack for mining pure Laurel Canyon AM gold. Pastoral string arrangements bloom in the background of Sam’s striking honeyed vocals-like a modern-day Campbell, Orbison, or Nilsson. Together, Wilson and Burton achieve a sound that doesn’t descend into retro pastiche, but rather becomes an evocative echo, a dream of the past. In scope, the music finds Burton using a far bigger canvas than on his acclaimed 2020 debut I Can Go With You, giving the emotions therein a new sense of urgency and intensity.

    Intersectionality and Inner Teen Healing with Elizabeth Su (Author and Creator of The Adventure Tarot)

    On this episode, I interview the fun and fabulous Elizabeth Su about her amazing deck The Adventure Tarot and her decision to center Asian-American women in this project, working to actively dismantle the lack of representation in spiritual spaces that have so often centered the white experience. We discuss undoing patterns of codependency, encountering shadow figures in dreams, navigating neurodivergence, and her journey of embracing and celebrating her mixed racial heritage as a form of inner teen healing. More from Elizabeth’s bio: Elizabeth Su is the author and creator of The Adventure Tarot, a road trip-inspired deck about self-discovery, belonging, and celebrating Asian joy. She earned her master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Columbia University where she researched burnout and perfectionism. Prior to that, she was busy hustling for her worth at a Silicon Valley start-up. Her work has been featured in, among others, the Los Angeles Times, POPSUGAR, and Bustle and centers around topics such as self-love, intersectionality, and the multifaceted nature of being human.
