Description

Welcome to The Spirit Daughter Podcast, where we explore the cosmic energy of each season through expert conversations and dive deep into celebrity birth charts to help you understand your own astrological design. I'm Jill Wintersteen, and twice weekly, I'm bringing you powerful conversations that align with current cosmic weather alongside intimate chart readings that reveal how the stars shape extraordinary lives.


 


Every month brings a perfect mix. Through intimate chart reading with fascinating guests, you'll discover how these successful people work with their cosmic energy to create extraordinary lives. As I read their charts, you'll recognize pieces of yourself in their stories. Their Venus placement might mirror yours. Their rising sign challenges might sound exactly like your morning routine. Every celebrity chart becomes a mirror for understanding your own.


 


I’ll also feature interviews with experts based on the current astrological season. During Virgo Season, we’ll explore finding your worth through healing and rituals. When Capricorn Season arrives, we’ll discuss building empires while maintaining life balance. These expert episodes are timed to each Sun Season's themes, giving you real tools to work with the current cosmic energy. 


 


Each week brings you two powerful episodes. Our full-length shows feature either revealing chart readings or expert conversations perfectly timed to the season's opportunities. Every conversation will show you how to work with current cosmic weather to create real results in your life.


 


Plus, our weekly mini-episodes break down specific pieces of the natal chart. What does Mercury in your chart reveal about your communication style? How does your moon sign unlock emotional freedom? These quick cosmic downloads give you the knowledge to read your own chart like a pro.


 


Here's what makes this irresistible: while I'm reading a celebrity's chart or exploring seasonal themes with experts, you're learning to apply these insights to your own life. Every placement we discuss, every aspect we explore, every transit we navigate together becomes a lesson you can use immediately. It's like getting a personal astrology education through the stories of people you admire and wisdom from experts who've mastered these cosmic cycles.


 


Whether you're new to astrology or ready to go deeper, this show teaches you to speak the language of the stars through expert wisdom and the charts of fascinating people. Because when you understand how cosmic energy shows up in others and learn to work with seasonal themes, you recognize these patterns in yourself. And when you understand your own astrological makeup, you unlock the power to create the exact life you desire.

I am so excited for you to listen to this episode. I sat down with Kelly Noonan Gores, the filmmaker, author, and creator behind HEAL, and we went DEEP. We talked about her Cancer rising, her Pisces moon, her Aries sun, her Jupiter return, and how all of it points to one thing: she was designed to feel everything so she could help the rest of us heal. This conversation got real fast. We talked about using altered states to understand consciousness, the Pisces pull toward escapism, what it means to have a Chiron wound around community and being seen, and how becoming a mother cracked her open in ways she never expected. Kelly is also in the middle of a Jupiter return right now, which means expansion is coming for her in a big way, and we talk about what that looks like with her new app, her next documentary, and her continued evolution as a healer. If you have ever felt like you feel too much, this episode is for you. Kelly's chart is living proof that your sensitivity is not a weakness. It is your greatest tool. Topics Covered: Kelly's Cancer rising, Pisces moon, and Aries sun and what makes her a natural healer The Pisces south node, escapism, and how altered states led her to understand consciousness Why her Jupiter return in Cancer is opening doors for expansion and abundance in 2026 The Chiron wound in the eleventh house and what it means to fear taking a seat at the head of the table How the HEAL documentary was never really a choice but a soul contract Reparenting, feeling your feelings, and learning to hold yourself as an adult Equine therapy and what horses teach us about taking up space and being authentic The Jack of Clubs in the card system and what it means for Kelly's potential Her upcoming app Held and next documentary on the science of feeling Why imperfection is the foundation of beauty and evolution Conscious parenting, Doctor Becky, and the power of repair Signs, synchronicity, and how the body is the ultimate sign Resources: Spirit Daughter Instagram: @spiritdaughter Spirit Daughter Website: spiritdaughter.com Pre-Order My New Book “Spirit Daughter”: https://a.co/d/0efly1FR Get Your Free Natal Chart: spiritdaughter.com Try the Moment App for Free: spiritdaughter.com Get the Pisces Season Workbook: spiritdaughter.com Kelly on Instagram — @kellygores HEAL with Kelly Podcast on Instagram — @healwithkelly HEAL Documentary — healwithkelly.co HEAL Book – healwithkelly.co HEAL with Kelly Podcast — healwithkelly.co Timestamps: [01:26] Kelly's card reading and why two Jacks in a room means trouble  [03:32] Cancer rising, Pisces moon, and why Kelly's chart screams healer  [07:28] The Pisces south node, escapism, and reaching higher states without substances  [16:11] Sun and Mercury in Aries and the fire behind Kelly's life work  [22:53] From actress to filmmaker and why HEAL was never a choice  [24:31] North node in Virgo and the soul contract to communicate healing  [32:50] Signs, synchronicity, and trusting the ones your body gives you  [38:33] Jupiter return in Cancer and the abundance coming second half of 2026  [43:03] Chiron in the eleventh house, equine therapy, and learning to take up space  [52:56] Reparenting, conscious parenting, and why we need to learn to hold ourselves  [58:56] Manifestation card pull and closing See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Overview: The lunar nodes are one of my favorite topics in astrology because they reveal something most people never think to look for: the karmic path your soul is on this lifetime. And once you see it, everything starts to make sense. Today I am breaking down what the lunar nodes actually are, why they are not planets or asteroids but energetic points where eclipses happen, and why they matter so much for your personal growth. I walk through where the nodes are right now collectively with the North Node in Pisces and South Node in Virgo, and what that means for all of us as a society. Then I go through every single nodal axis so you can find your personal nodes and understand the comfort zone your soul keeps pulling you back to and the lesson you are here to learn. I also explain what a nodal return is, why it happens every 18 years, and why it brings some of the biggest life changes you will ever experience. If you have ever felt stuck in a pattern you cannot break, your lunar nodes might be the missing piece. Press play and find yours. And if this resonates, share it with a friend who is ready to understand their path. Topics Covered: What the lunar nodes are and why they are not planets The North Node vs. the South Node and how they create an axis of energy Why the nodes always move retrograde and why that is nothing to worry about The current collective nodes: North Node in Pisces and South Node in Virgo What we are releasing as a society: perfectionism, control, and imposter syndrome Where we are headed collectively: intuition, trust, and surrender The upcoming nodal shift into Aquarius and Leo at the end of July How eclipses activate the lunar nodes and why eclipse season matters Your personal lunar nodes and how they reveal your karmic path The South Node as your comfort zone and why it keeps pulling you back The North Node as the unfamiliar lesson your soul is here to learn A full breakdown of every nodal axis: Aries/Libra, Taurus/Scorpio, Gemini/Sagittarius, Cancer/Capricorn, Leo/Aquarius, Virgo/Pisces What a nodal return is and why it brings major life reinvention Reverse nodal returns and how they show up differently Resources: Spirit Daughter Instagram: @spiritdaughter Spirit Daughter Website: spiritdaughter.com Pre-Order My New Book “Spirit Daughter”: https://a.co/d/0efly1FR Get Your Free Natal Chart: spiritdaughter.com Try the Moment App for Free: spiritdaughter.com Get the Pisces Season Workbook: spiritdaughter.com Timestamps: [00:08] What the lunar nodes actually are and why they are one of my favorite topics in astrology [00:46] The current collective nodes: North Node in Pisces, South Node in Virgo [02:11] What we are releasing as a society and where we are headed [05:38] Your personal lunar nodes and how to find them in your natal chart [08:08] What a nodal return is and why it changes everything [05:58] North Node in Aries / South Node in Libra: from people pleasing to putting yourself first [09:47] North Node in Taurus / South Node in Scorpio: from chaos to peace [10:38] North Node in Gemini / South Node in Sagittarius: from self righteousness to open mindedness [11:40] North Node in Cancer / South Node in Capricorn: from white knuckling to softening [12:41] North Node in Leo / South Node in Aquarius: from hiding to leading [13:55] North Node in Virgo / South Node in Pisces: from escapism to teaching [14:49] North Node in Libra / South Node in Aries: from selfishness to healthy partnership [15:28] North Node in Scorpio / South Node in Taurus: from comfort to transformation [16:44] North Node in Sagittarius / South Node in Gemini: from fixed thinking to expansion [17:05] North Node in Capricorn / South Node in Cancer: from emotional overwhelm to healthy containers [17:52] North Node in Aquarius / South Node in Leo: from drama to standing in your truth [18:53] Full circle back to Pisces and Virgo See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
What happens when the universe builds someone to be seen, but the world keeps telling her she's too much? In this episode, I'm sitting with Oscar-nominated actress Minnie Driver, and we are going deep. We explore her Aquarius sun in the seventh house and why her partnerships had to be unconventional to work. We unpack her Scorpio moon and the emotional depth she carries that fuels her acting but can feel overwhelming in everyday life. We talk about being punished as a kid for thinking differently, the power of daily ritual to contain big emotions, and why her chart says she is heading into one of the most powerful reinventions of her life. If you have ever felt like you were too much for the people around you, this one is for you.

You know that voice in your head? The one that says you are not ready, not enough, not there yet? What if that voice is NOT actually you? Today I am sitting down with Krista Williams, co-host of Almost 30, transformation coach, and one of my closest friends.
