Pisces Full Moon / Gayle de Angelis interview - Blue Moon!

Hey y'all, it's fishy-wishy moony moon time, and Mercury has gone AWOL again, but all is good, just keep on dreamin' the good dream! I had an extraordinary chat with Gayle de Angelis about her acapella group "Heartstrings", the power of Leonard Cohen's songs, ranting at the radio and herbal remedies from her love garden.

Capricorn Super Moon - Climb Every Mountain

Hey all, it's a Capricorn Super Moon which is bleating at us to get on with the Work, but also to take a moment and take in the view from the top of the mountain that is YOU - what's ahead, sure, but more importantly, how far you've come. Give thanks and gratitude and celebrate the wild in whatever way you deem fit, Child of Earth! 
Cover song - Climb Every Mountain (Rodgers/Hammerstein)

Scorpio Lunar Eclipse - Release the Beast it’s Beltane!

Hey there my beautiful beasts, it's a Beltane full moon lunar eclipse in sexy, strange, seductive Scorpio! My birthday happened to fall on the same night as the full moon so I decided to do a random party recording and some dear friends dropped in for some deep musings on this powerful Sabbat. I hope this lunar eclipse assists you in your transformation from scuttling Scorpion to exultant Phoenix!
 
Original song: "The Garden"

Libra Full Moon/Phil McQueen Interview - Take a Beat

How are the scales balancing for you at this time? Too much of one thing and not another?

We talked about his photographic adventures in Tokyo and Australia capturing the raw energy of these two unique landscapes, and also his extensive philanthropic work. Original song: "Lover's War" by Sorcha and The Sinners

Virgo Full Moon - Ducks in a Row

Hey everyone, Sorcharess here with another spell cast for the full moon. This month it's all about taking the time to heal, recuperate and dream up a bright future for yourself. I'm a bit melancholic myself at the moment, but I ain't gonna be no victim, just let it ride itself out til I'm ready to re-emerge as something gorgeous! Original Song: "Chrysalis" 

Lions and Tigers and Bears oh my! Leo Full Moon/ interview with Anneliese Nakahara-Knight

Miaow my cats and thanks for listening in to this spell cast for the full moon in Leo! It's the kind of moon that may have your cats skittering around the room like demons from hell because la Luna is squaring off with that irrational paradigm shifter planet Uranus (in the physical sign of Taurus) Not to worry! Perhaps a good sing will help. We'll learn all about the benefits of singing from Anneliese Nakahara-Knight, co-founder of MotherSong Japan. 
Featured original LIVE song: "Black Red Blue"

Cancer Full Moon/Mercury Retrograde - Warm Fuzzies

Happy New Year 2023! Thanks for tuning in to the first spellcast of the year. The Cancer Full Moon is drawing us to her warm bosom for cuddles and nurturing. Never mind the Mercury Retrograde idle chatter, conundrums and comedown from the silly season - now is the time to turn off the phone and do the TLC routine. 
Original song: "Jezebel" (from the album "Hymns for Her, 2016)
BGM by The Lyre Ensemble - "Babale to Nanshe" "Dumuzid's Dream" "Hymn to Ishtar"

Gemini Full Moon/Mars Retrograde - Mind Your Manners

Hey there party monsters! 2022 is a WRAP. I hope you've thrived and survived this year, 'cause there's certainly more to come. The full moon in Gemini is conjunct a retrograding Mars so there may be a bit of weirdness and frustration about - but it's a great opportunity to put your money where your mouth is and get real on your motivations. 
Original song: "The Flower and the Bee"
