Ep113 ~ re-envisioning revolution: pluto in aquarius with revolutionary astrologer kay, darling (pt 1)
Today the collective is reflecting on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his legacy–but this ep was recorded all the way back in November, the day before Pluto entered the sign of Aquarius (where it will stay for the next 19 years) so you know we talkin’ bout a capital R Revolution! Could we believe that Revolution is actually walking into a much more comfortable, easeful and loving way of being? How can community help us reconnect with our purpose, our magic, our strengths? As we witness our cruel and inefficient systems collapsing in real time during a violent power-grab, how can we more compassionately support each other through illness, climate change, disability? Grab a cup of something nourishing and strap in for part one of this in-depth, real-talk convo with revolutionary astrologer kay, darling of Cosmic Healing, as we tuck into these questions and much more.
We talk: embodied ethics and integrity in the spiritual and peer support realms, intersections of disability justice and liberation, the 2024 US election, and kay’s own journey with chronic illness and experiences as a Black refugee of the American empire. If you’re feeling freaked about 2025 and what’s to come, you’ll def want to tune into both parts of this lively ep for some solid wisdom and insight into how the outer, slower planets (like Pluto and Jupiter) can offer us hope, guidance and inspiration for the challenging paths we may have ahead of us.

Ep111: what we owe each other, and the perceived paradox of the wounded healer
Ep111: what we owe each other, and the perceived paradox of the wounded healer
This solo episode is a sermon, a love letter, a call to action to resist psychic death for anyone who may be feeling isolated, hopeless, numb or despairing under the heavy weight of our current world. What (or who) determines which of us are worthy of care in this life? How can we move from a framework of toxic guilt, shame and individualism, to one of collective care and reciprocity? As Tavi shares, sometimes our darkest moments can open us up to the divine, universal experience of receiving and giving help.
“The work is plentiful…It is not your duty to finish the work [of perfecting the world], but neither are you at liberty to neglect it.” (Rabbi Tarfon, "Pirkei Avot" 2:15-16)
