In this episode, the narrative is going back to the beginning, the end, the cyclic narrative of the Fool. The Fool as card 0 marks the constant shift and return to self, a homecoming on a grand scale. It is not a card that speaks to grand adventure, but rather that YOU are the adventure, the divine magick arriving at thresholds of self into other, self into self, and other into you.
In this episode, the main themes that we talk about are:

• how the Fool does not speak to an external adventure, but rather how you are the adventure
• how the Fool is not simply naïve or ignorant, and what it means to tap into the magick of youthful belief
• the invitations of the Fool are ones of :
  • coming into wholeness of self, into complete presence
  • letting that wholeness allow you to arrive at the apex of manifestation
  • the threshold of that apex opens you to yourself and therefore, the world with trust
• the role of the Fool as holy fool, court jester, creator of change, and equal parts Creator and Destroyer

I hope that through this narrative, you can come home to the beautiful teachings of the Fool and find the expansive magick within you. Thanks for listening.

Following the voted majority of a nature-based episode, I kept coming back to this idea of cocooning and going within, especially in this time. Winter naturally leads to cocooning, incubating, and insulating.
Although it is often talked about in a much more consumer or home-decor focus today, winter invites a retreat into the internal and the darkness. At the same time, winter allows the process of transformation to occur by initiating the death-cycles, the breakdowns, and the barrenness.
In this episode, we discuss the beautiful life-cycle of the butterfly, the process of self-metamorphosis, the journey of spiritual migration, and the unseen magick in the chrysalis.

Sacred Power. Supportive Stability. Foundational Protection
These are all themes of the Emperor, the fourth card in the tarot's Major Arcana. The Emperor speaks to channeling the vision of the Empress (worldly beauty and creative manifestations) into structured support, ensuring growth and expansion.
The Emperor uses his autonomous wisdom, leadership, and vitality that comes with his fiery Leo and Sun association to create sustainable and long-term thriving. His powerful force of strength invites you to endure and overcome hardships so that you can hold that space for others, a rippling affect of change for all.
Main invitations:

• Support and protection are the foundation. A strong force of will, more than control orpower, is key.
• Merges creations and order, balances and brings to external spaces.
• Knowing what is within control, and what is not. Self-governance rules from the inside outward.

In this episode, we discuss what it means to be a black sheep, and what trials, errors, and blessings come when we, as black sheep, seek to claim the spaces within and around us. I discuss situations I have had to go through as a black sheep, and what I have learned and gained from this space. I also discuss other resources that have been helpful in my own black sheep journey, and in embodying my own black sheep archetype. Finally, we pull a card and discuss what it can be inviting for us in terms of walking and existing on the fringe.

As April is National Poetry Month, it only makes sense that we would return to a deep dive into a poem. This month, I chose to honor the power of place and tending my spirit with a short poem, titled "Poems" by poet and children's books author Nikki Grimes. In this poem, we see the messages of what it means to hold the archetype of the Poet and the Gem. We discuss and compare these archetypes to those from the deck The Wild Unknown Archetypes. We see where the gems in our lives are unique. They are our own treasures that are found when we explore the darkness within. We also see how you don't need to write physical poetry to embody the Poet. This archetype is the witness. They are the ones that feel immensely into the dark corners, and pull out the messages which speak to transcendent truth.
If you would like to purchase The Wild Unknown Archetypes deck, click here (not an affiliate link).
