The Empowered Modern Witches Show

Athena has an expansive background as an herbalist, trauma release guide, yoga/breathwork/meditation instructor, III reiki master, and a grief tending practitioner/guide.  Light language is a sensory language that can be spoken or sung and helps you connect with your higher self. Athena shares her personal journey of finding light language after leaving the military and provides super practical tips for tapping into light language for the first time and incorporating it into your daily life.

She is also one of our speakers at the upcoming Empowered Modern Witches Summit, where she will be offering a reading for the collective with the new Seasons of the Witch: Mabon oracle deck. Lorriane and I have been witchy friends and colleagues for many years and often find ourselves on parallel spiritual journeys. In the episode, Lorriane and I chat about our own spiritual practices and how they have evolved over the years, how sometimes skipping rituals can be more mindful and present than pushing through or going through the motions, and how to adapt the cycles of nature like the Wheel of the Year to suit your own needs. Lorriane also shared a really interesting and useful reframe of the Wheel of the Year, not just as seasonal festivals at specific times of year but as expressions of powerful human emotions that we might experience or tap into even in the "wrong" season, (such as tapping into the grief of Samhain in spring or summer.)

She is the founder of Rowan + Sage, where she shares handcrafted astrologically-aligned herbal products, works with clients in her clinical practice, and guides others on their plant path through educational programs and mentorship.

In this episode, I'm sharing all about how you to bring the abstract, intellectual concepts of astrology down to earth, using real-world tools like plants, crystals, and tarot cards. Every sign in the zodiac is associated with an element, (fire, earth, air, or water), and an archetype or a character that embodies its energy. Plants, crystals, tarot cards, and even goddesses are also associated with elements and archetypes in this way, connecting them to the signs and planets in astrology. You can bring a particular tool, or "ally", into your life and spiritual practice in order to channel and harness the energy signature of a particular sign or planet or even to balance one out.

In this episode, I'm sharing all about how to understand one of the most complicated and confusing aspects of astrology: the transits. Transits is a very broad, catch-all term for pretty much anything the sun, moon, planets, and asteroids do - change signs, go retrograde, form aspects to one another, and more. I'm sharing my controversial opinions about which transits are important to pay attention to and which really don't matter that much, both collectively and based on your own chart. Plus, I'm also giving you the inside track on how to know which transits are most likely to be really impactful for you personally. Want to learn even more about astrology with me?

In this episode, I'm chatting with Kir Beaux, (they/ them), who is an Afro-Indigenous, Trans, Non-Binary Queer, psychic witch, and spiritual counselor. Kir offers Spirit channeling sessions and education via Pink Opal Magic. We talked all about The Emperor tarot card and how it is associated with Aries season, but reframed outside of the restricting patriarchal, capitalistic framework of the past. Rather than seeing The Emperor as this energy of authority, patriarchy, and being in charge of others, let's shift our focus to the true energy of Aries: inner, soul fire and taking up exactly as much space as we are meant to. We also touched on Kir's own tarot practice of reflection, checks and balances, and working with their guides for clarity.

In this episode, I'm deep diving into what astrology is, how to read your own birth chart, and why your birth chart can help you in all areas of your life. We're talking about the planets and luminaries, the twelve signs of the zodiac, the twelve houses, and how they can combine in infinite ways to reflect who you are as a person. Learning about my own moon sign many years ago, and then the rest of my chart, has quite literally changed my life. It's given me so much more self-awareness and understanding of and compassion for my tendencies, triggers, and needs. I hope it can do the same for you!
