How do we stay confident through uncertainty? Normal is no longer working; we have to be ready for change. The future is written and we are living it now. This podcast conversation goes where few are willing to go by discussing the uncertain reality of life on Earth, a parallel to how we can lean into confidence during any uncertainty in our own lives.

Discussing everything from how The Alliance Center’s Regenerative Recovery Coalition was born from a vision in meditation, to how humanity got here 10,000 years ago to the modern-day consequences of separating ourselves from Nature, Spirit and each other, this podcast really shoots straight to the heart of the matter.

An open mind that releases all assumptions is the pathway to a diversity of ideas. Science, spirituality, gender identity, queerness, human evolution- this episode delves into all of these topics and beyond, allowing us to drop preconceived notions about what we think we know. We welcome you to a profoundly unique discussion that explores the depths of a Pisces and Gemini mind that award-winning author, filmmaker, and producer Kristen Wolf embodies. Tune in as Debra and Kristen discuss how they create new realities by seeing the world through the eyes of an explorer, and offer permission to all people to open themselves up to the endless possibilities on this planet. With strength and vulnerability, Kristen opens up about her own journey as a queer person and the development of her innate creative talent as a writer and producer. Her first novel, The Way, beautifully explores gender identity and divinity in a compelling way, with a twist that will blow the minds of readers and critics. It’s a novel that got the attention of O Magazine, which recommended The Way as a “title to pick up now.” Kristen’s second novel, The Escapement, has also won multiple awards and numerous accolades from readers and writers alike. As an endless dreamer, Kristen has a special gift for getting people to push beyond boundaries of thought and expression; a very Pisces gift. Her honesty is penetrating yet gentle, and through her own explorations and writings, she shines a light on how one can cultivate a pathway of self discovery. With striking realness, Debra and Kristen dive into the fluidity of releasing attachment and avoiding the trap of fixed ideas. This is a powerful conversation you’ll want to repeat again and again as it gently guides you to look beyond your own assumptions about truth and possibility.

If you’re looking for a shot of energy, take a listen to this electric podcast episode with Jill Bolte Taylor, neuroscientist and author of My Stroke of Insight and Whole Brain Living. We hope you enjoy this episode and let it energize you- it’s better than espresso! Jill’s background in neuroscience was her gateway to spirituality, she reveals, after she had a stroke and spent some time living in her right brain. According to Jill, the “old her” died after the stroke and she was reborn into the person she is now. Thus, Jill has two Astrology charts, her original birth chart, where she has Sun in Taurus, and her rebirth chart which boasts a Sun in Sagittarius! What a difference! Tune in to hear Debra and Jill explore the dynamics of both charts in this episode which is such a unique perspective. Jill explains her major life moments as “tsunamis” and how these profound experiences allowed her frequency to become “regulated for love.” After Jill’s first-to-go-viral TED Talk in 2008, she became an international speaking sensation and proceeded to work on her next book about “whole brain living.” Whole brain living defines the four parts of our brain that act as the control center, and demonstrates how to balance them for maximum happiness. Character 1 goes to work, Character 2 keeps us safe, Character 3 likes to play and have fun, Character 4 connects us with greater purpose. Keep these characters in mind while you listen to this episode. Turning on the Observer, as Debra teaches, allows one to be able to pull back and see their four characters; to choose who to be and how to respond. As Jill says throughout the episode, we have the power to choose who and how we want to be in each moment. Astrology and the four elements beautifully mirror the whole brain and the four characters. This is a story that couldn’t possibly fit in the allotted time, but Debra and Jill pack a punch of wisdom into this episode. It’s a don’t miss for anyone seeking confirmation of their varied, unique selves or those looking for a funny, profoundly inspirational listening experience that has a message of universal love!

The Earth’s climate is changing, and people all over the world are affected by it in some way or another. Climate change poses a huge threat to economies, compels death and various diseases, and prompts conflict between peoples as one geopolitical issue would be able to affect food security. Due to these grim forecasts, many countries around the world have come together to try and find ways to fight against climate change. Five indications that climate change is real: 1) The climate change phenomenon will speed up the production and disappearance of air pollutants, increase the number of allergies, and affect people's metabolisms. 2) Major crops, such as beans and corn, will experience and endure a significant decrease in growth rates due to scarce water availability. 3) Ocean life threatened. Coral reefs are drowned by sea-level rise and no longer get sunlight on their smaller, lower parts. 4) Heat waves in many regions have influenced mortality rates concurrent with climate change. 5) Nepal has already been severely affected by hotter days, leading to more food scarcity, unemployment, and lost income.

Pisces men and women are emotional water signs. They easily feel suppressed, not just towards themselves but others too. It is because they are mega empathetic. They have this ability to identify with others' feelings and pain due to their dealings with their own emotional sensitivity. Just like any sign, the quirkiness of a Pisces is no exception. They can be quite secretive, hard to control, and restless. One might say that they have built-in-rebellion in them, which allows them to have an inner thirst for freedom, life experiences, and something new. If ever met with negative energy or draining interactions, it is best for him/her to set bounderies to generate a positive energy boost. We are joined on this episode by Tommy Chong. As half of the famed comic team Cheech & Chong, Grammy Award-winning comedian Tommy Chong is legendary for his significant contribution to American counter-culture.

The Corsican Brothers, Cheech and Chong's Next Movie (1980), Nice Dreams (1981), Things Are Tough All Over (1982), Cheech and Chong: Still Smoking (1983), and Cheech and Chong: Still Smoking (1983) were among the others (1984). 1:31 Tommy's double pisces and its meaning 5:10 Some of Tommy's childhood memories and early influences 8:21 Reading Tommy's chart 9:38 Tommy's memories from the home 15:32 What was marijuana's contribution for the colective? 20:00 Tommy and Shelby's love story 24:39 What dead person would Tommy like to talk to 28:27 Double pisces and how it deals with fear 34:20 Tommy Chong's bottom liner: a message for the collective Connect with Tommy Chong: Website https://www.cheechandchong.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heytommychong/?hl=en Twitter: https://twitter.com/tommychong Connect Debra Silverman: Website: https://debrasilvermanastrology.com/life-changing-transformations/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/debrasilverman_astrology/?hl=en Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/eleventhhouse YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/silvermanastrology TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@debrasilvermanastrology

How to find pleasure in being in a body, creating a dialogue between your emotional and physical body.

Finding pleasure in the body can be key to fully embracing your incarnation in this lifetime. Debra is joined by Liz Letchford who, by way of the evolution of her work, has embodied a mission to bridge these two worlds. As Liz says, “We came from the stars,” and she has actually learned components of Astrology by relating the signs to the systems of the body. Liz speaks to marrying the two oppositional worlds of science, through her sports medicine and PhD in biomechanics, and the mystical world within her somatic and intuitive work, which she shares about within this episode. Sitting in the middle between opposing energies and showing how one can support the other is one of Liz’s great abilities, as evidenced by her Mercury in Pisces. You’ll get to experience Liz’s Aries energy, her fun-loving Sagittarius vibe, and the intuitive, sensual nature of her Cancer Moon and Venus in Taurus.

How to have a consistent meditation practice instead of adding it to your list of shoulds. Meditation is a hot topic that everyone talks about, yet so many of us find resistance in it being a consistent, fulfilling practice. You’re not the only one that struggles with meditating, whether you’re struggling in your current practice to stay consistent or struggling because you don’t have a practice in the first place. This episode might help you fall in love with meditation! Debra is joined by Kilkenny Tremblay, Yoga and Meditation professor and host of Modern Mystic Podcast, who in addition to being a lifelong lover of meditation, yoga, and other spiritual teachings, is an alumni of Debra’s Applied Astrology school. Kilkenny and Debra discuss how meditation is a dynamic practice, not a one-size-fits-all approach. Debra sheds light on a part of Kilkenny’s Astrological chart that countless other professional Astrologers have seemed to avoid, making Kilkenny’s point of how solid Debra’s approach and Astrological method is, and how Astrology terminology will soon be as fluent to the masses as yoga has become. The history and dynamics of Pluto are highlighted, bridging the connection between Kilkenny’s intense passion for life and her work, and her ability to speak to the seen and unseen, the magical and the mundane. Here’s your chance to learn about the influence of Pluto in Astrology and update your perspective on why meditation is so powerful.

How to walk the path of the mystic and tune into higher knowledge. Podcast guest Paul Selig says he has no advice for our listeners, yet his presence and his life’s work shows us the importance of opening ourselves up to a higher power. Paul Selig is one of the foremost contributors to the field of channeled literature, after a spiritual experience in 1987 left him clairvoyant. He attended New York University and earned a master’s from Yale. He is the author of Beyond the Known: Realization and The Book of Innocence. As a double Scorpio personality with a prevalent Virgo energy in his chart, the richness and depth of Paul’s work and his loyalty to the purity of his path is impressive. Paul takes Debra through his journey to walking the path of the mystic, which admittedly began with resistance and a skeptic eye towards mysticism and his lifestyle was not in alignment with that path. Paul then experienced a series of events which led him to this new path, which would change the course of his life entirely. Paul also shares about his first Astrological experience and as Debra walks through components of his chart, Paul connects them to avenues and events within his life. This is an interview packed with a Plutonian energy… tune in for what that means (and more).
