    2. Lizzie's Griffs: Intro to decans, dignity and more

    In this episode, Mara provides some background on decans, the 10-degree divisions of each zodiac sign. There's also a little exploration of planetary rulership, the concept of dignity in astrology, and a bit of discussion on weaving together astrological and tarot practices. Mentioned here is some of the work of astrologer Austin Coppock, author of 36 Faces: The History, Astrology and Magic of the Decans. https://austincoppock.com/ To see a visual of the decanic wheel, visit https://www.lizziesgriffs.com/my-blog. Mara Smith is an artist who enjoys playing at the intersections of mythic time, clock time, and synchronicity in mundane reality. An educator by trade and lifelong musician, under the musical project finfeather she blends genres to create a wide variety of songs, many of which are hymns to planets, archetypes, and the decans of the tarot. Her astrological self is currently materializing in a flirtatious experiment with an alter ego, Lizzie, a devoted student of timelord, Saturn. Mara brings Lizzie's griffs, or creations, to life through music, poetry, prose, contemplations and conversations with the many divine individuals she is fortunate to know in community near and far.

    1. Lizzie's Griffs: this is not a performance

    In this introductory episode, Mara begins by introducing Lizzie, "griffs," and briefly discusses the rationale for adding another drop to the vast ocean of podcasts that exist in 2026. After a few reflections on the theme of resistance to speaking, Mercury, and the sign of Pisces, we begin to learn a bit about decans, 10-degree subdivisions of each sign in the zodiac, laying a bit of groundwork for listeners to follow along in subsequent episodes.
