    CareCast: 1st Saturday Meditation + Breath Work on Imbolc - February '25

    Welcome to our CareCast! This year we're are posting recordings of our monthly CareCircles to the podcast - this is our "CareCast." We invite you get comfy, grab some hydration and join us together in queer community. The Queer Spirit Community gathers on the 1st Saturday of each month for practices in guided meditation, breath work + movement. These practices are faciltated by TanyaMarck Oviedo (they/them) and Nick Venegoni (he/they). They are curated + inspired by the planetary + astrological + pagan wheel of the year energies in mind. For February's circle we gathered on Imbolc, the pagan holiday and celebration of the Celtic goddess Brigid. She carries the magic of poetry, healing and blacksmithing (manifestation + dedication). What seeds of intention do you want to bless and plant for the year? What is your pledge or dedication you ask Brigid to hold with you this year? Astrologically we’re swimming in the energies of: new moon/sun in Aquarius: self expression, freedom, group humanitarian mindset + Venus/Neptune conjunct in Pisces = vulnerable, meditative, romantic, searching for trance states: love, art, beauty, connections + peace + justice + abundance - need for boundaries in these areas. We honor with Gratitude + Thanks the sacred Practices + Traditions + Peoples + Lands: Yoga, Ayurveda – Sanskrit, Mantra, Raga, Hindustani Music, Buddhism + Tibet + Meditation; Tongva + Kizh + Chumash + Ohlone; Tarot + Astrology + Magic + Witchcraft; the teachers who have carried this wisdom and shared it with us ~ Gracias.

    Herbal Magic for the Winter Solstice with Lynn Flanagan-Till and Lou Florez

    Today we have another cross-pollination episode for you with our friends over at the Radicle Curiosity podcast, Lou Florez and Lynn Flanagan-Till. Lou Florez (Awo Ifadunsin - he/they) is a diviner and metaphysical reader who facilitates spiritual connectivity and transformational empowerment throughout his myriad roles as a Priest, lecturer, author, medicine maker, and activist. His work is inherently interdisciplinary and intersectional—bridging the fields of herbalism, ecology, divination, poetry, psychology, religious studies, gender and sexual studies, mixed-media art, and perfumery. Lou investigates the emanating Spirit present within all these fields and incorporates them into experiences that activate the Spirit within. Lynn Flanagan-Till (she/they) is a Mother, Folk-Futurist Herbalist, generational Veštica (‘a skilled woman’) in Serb-Romani lineage, Olorisha, DIY ethnobotanist, botanical formulator and nature punk. Her work is deeply influenced by ancestral traditions and rematriation. Lynn has been a practicing herbalist in the Denver area for over 20 years and is devoted to serving spirit and community via plants. In this collaboration we have a round table conversation about herbs that we each feel a connection to the winter solstice. We share magic and history about rue, creosote, rosemary and osha. We offer practices for each one you can do at home to deepen your relationship and understanding. Find all four herbal practices on this nifty handout HERE!
