Leo New Moon, Sacred Union & the Real Roots of Patriarchy | Albert Mitchell Interview
|
Hi there, I am coming to you today with the most amazing news! My favorite person on this Earth has released his book, The Way of The Sphinx, and I was able to snag the first interview - one filled with talk of spirituality, what it looks like to bring our world back into alignment, and his new model of The Zodiac (one that at last brings greater alignment and coherence to what has traditionally been quite the messy model). Albert Mitchell is a practicing occultist and spiritual teacher with a depth of knowledge that I just don't often see in my generation. But what makes Albert exceptional is that he isn't just a library of information, but one with a fierce devotion to practice that has crafted him into the most grounded, heart-centered, and aligned person I know. I love working with The Zodiac as a spiritual framework that helps us reflect on and work with areas for growth and balancing in ourselves and in our lives. But you guys, I have such a problem with the inconsistencies in this model and my mind has such a hard time wrapping itself around patterns that just don't really align across different teachings of it. Albert brings the resolution to this - his book brings through a whole new understanding of what the Zodiac is, and shows that there is an underlying pattern within its symbolism which had not yet been uncovered. With this new understanding he offers us a refreshing way of working with not just our own astrological signs, but the whole framework as a holistic model for the soul.
In addition to speaking to his new work, we talk about what spirituality really means:
Furthermore, you get to hear us both open up to a view of spirituality that is difficult to speak to publicly (whilst weaving it into the crashing wave of patriarchy and the need to now bring feminine & masculine energies into union - within self and out in the world). You can purchase the paperback or hardcover version of Albert's new book, The Way of The Sphinx, today.
Plus, we are in New Moon Eclipse energy!With the New Moon in Leo, Albert offers us an invocation of Leo:
Enjoy the episode, and as always I'd love it if you'd hit reply and let me know exactly what is speaking to you! Big love, Katie |

Embodiment. What is it, and what is it not? Embodiment continues to be a hot subject, and for good reason! The way that society has a history of stripping us out of our bodies, taking away our humanity as we are seen for our utility, and not our inherent worth: it is a darkest of tragedies. Reclaiming our world begins with reclaiming our bodies. It begins with healing internal wounds. It begins with reclaiming feeling and emotion. But this is not the full picture! I teach embodiment through...

Hi there, Woah you guys, what a time! First I ran 100 miles, then an Aries Full Moon hit. Now I am in the final 2 weeks of prep for my wedding!! Talk about big energy! Through it all, Autumn has arrived in full force. Not only did the leaves decide to change early, but the wild tides of climate change have also brought a torrent of rain to the high desert here in New Mexico. Things are wonky. That means things are shifting! Everything is shifting, isn't it? And if you find yourself clinging...
