This is going to be a big May for us - TWO EPISODES.
We begin with the Chariot in Drag, because we believe in the vessel.
We did the Chariot Episode earlier this season with Indy Srinath which you can see here
Kochina Rude is a drag queen, vocalist, and emcee based in the San Francisco Bay Area. Kochina’s distinct hard-femme style is fueled by an upbringing of punk rock coupled with Chicano culture.Kochina is a cohost for weekly drag show “Princess” at SF Oasis, and also provides vocals for Bay Area punk band Lolly Gaggers. Offstage, she is a harm reduction activist, public health worker, and sexual health educator.
From the Desert to the Drag Club - I am so beyond inspired by Kochina. We talk about Drag and Drugs - and the work of Harm Reduction. This episode is inspired by the vessel of the craft. By the transformation that takes forth.
If you enjoy these episodes - please review us. We love sharing written reviews out loud - and it really supports the continuation of this podcast. We are grateful for those that look forward to our monthly episodes - and are deeply grateful for all the love.
The best news - We will be back for Season III. Stay tuned for future episodes as more unfolds with a brand new show format, cover art, and new co-host. More to come, stay tuned.

We are about eight episodes left of Season II - which through living through a pandemic feels like an edge of time travel talismans that has left yet another moment of conversational magick to be bad.
Season III is beginning to be dreamed upon - and I am so excited to share with you all some upcoming announcements about it over the course of the next couple of intros - so lets get into the first episode of 2022 - inviting in the Devil Card bc why wouldn't we be doing the polar opposite card?
So we journey through the dance of this episode uncovering the workings of the Devils in the eyes of a wonderful cat dad and professional Tarot Reader, Jonathan - the Son of Osun.

We're Back! We are trying as much as we can to post monthly - and sometimes Mercury Rx comes through and has other plans - and we don't try to force any urgency on conversations that hold us down and through these windy paths these days.
How they came to know their relationship to spirit mediumship. What do we know of death? What do we need to navigate? How systems have made death unavoidable for black queer bodies? How the capitalized system of death made us forget our inherent birth right to death What are ways we return home again? Ruminations of the Hanged One
CW warnings : conversations about police brutality, state sanctioned violence against black bodies, AAPI hate crimes.
Please remember #ACAB within this conversation. We wanna honor these moments in which state sanctioned violence and police brutality is not a trending meme, or a time in history - it is systemic.
This is in honor of the Hanged One. How we shift our perceptions and our relationship to death. How death - and talking about death out loud - is a way to be in relationship to a perspective we often never want to address.
Please note - I mess up in the intro - ya know? I tried to edit this out - and I just couldn't - so your gonna witness this - and I appreciate that - as I remind myself its okay.

The three of wands finds its way into as last foundations with strong commitment - and I feel that describes these two amazing beings pretty damn clearly. This is recorded before the release of the book and the podcast - and really serves as a way to note - when you allow yourself a sense of deep awareness and self-study, you cultivate containerships for big magick.Episode Topics +

We're back! Another episode of conversational magick, and we are here to talk about so many different aspects of the Witch, the ways of folk herbalism, and noting the importance of getting uncomfortable. This episode had an air of the Nine of Wands - which for me in these moments feels like an ongoing motion as we continue to navigate a world of racist, patriarchal and capitalist structures.
Join Tara with Callie Blue North as we talk around several topics of lineage magcik, the ways of Hierophant year, and how we can be supportive by listening to the wisdom of Plants.
When we commit to the importance of tending to what calls our attention - we are met with both vulnerable and uncomfortable notions of being. This is the work at hand.

Our First Episode of 2021
Welcome to this space and time.
In the ways of landback we remember we are not separate and in ownership to the Earth. Beneath our four legged paws- a memory encoded in our genetic timeline. What Is the relationship that does not consist of ownership or outcomes?
Jacqui Wilkins of @amongthewildflowers shares the lineage and origin story of their ancestral medicine practice. We speak of Hypericum as protection Medicine for this time and the wisdom that came through as the episode was transmuted in the summer months.
When we are in relationship to the other than human world, not to use plants as constituents, not to break them down as individual parts. All plants embody a sentience. The willingness to trust the process as practice without fixed goals- gives space to the whole.
Beginning Intro excerpt from Jacqui - returning back to ways of our Imaginal capacityHerbal MedicineConnecting with Cotton Wood TreeFinding our way back home to land based wisdom practicesHypericum MedicineReturning home to the StarsThe Magician- As Above so Below & Our Connection to StarsSacred ActivismThe Assumed Expectations of Social MediaLiving within the holy containership of chronic illness
With this knowing, we build and support networks of care- and returning back to our medicine dreams- and relationship to the sacred.
This episode Is near and dear to my heart, and I am deeply grateful to offer It out.
Please don't forget to share this podcast with loved ones, furry friends, and plant kin alike.

Finding our way into the Death Card at the end of the year, only seems fitting. Being with the cycles of Death has transformed us all through the wake of a global pandemic- and what are we in the acts of this dance with life-death-rebirth. Instead of hiding from death, what happens when we actually move towards it, instead of hiding from it- tucking it away, never to speak of it again.
In our conversation with Aunia Kahm, we talk about the ways in which the death card comes up in a reading, that it is not to be feared yet embraced.
This is the last episode of 2020- and we send it off to compost for the year- as we move into 2021 and whats to come from that.

Matrilineal Magick Influence Ways of identifying magick Difference between psychic and mediumship? The role of empath and mediumship Boundaries and Mental Health How we stigmatize magick High Priestess Card Magic & Wolf Medicine High Priestess Themes
We time travel in this episode. Coming through a transmission on April 12th 2020, Ostara sees a time where we are growing an egg and cultivation.
The High Priestess card is asking us to see what it is we stand behind. What it is that is non-negotiable, why we are the way we are through the songs of our ancestors, our childhood memories, and our innate ability to know how deeply we feel.
We court the realms and systems of magick, we talk about magic through the ways of an empath, through mediumship, through early childhood development.
I ramble and say curious A LOT in this episode. I think this lense tries to focus on intersectional magick as informing ourselves through the landscapes of mental health, the effects of colonializations.
Also, I am a fast talker, and noticing also being an interrupter in moments of excitability, so MĒTZLI THANK YOU for supporting my mind jumping from place to place, also leaning in.

SHOW NOTES +
Because we love time travel and so deeply believe in it. The intro of this was recorded right as were ordered our shelter in place and the time for many of collective isolation and shared grief.
I find myself in the beginning ending this as it started. Not knowing, and leaning into the earth and the way of primary. When something feels big, it sometimes what makes it hard to share openly.
We recorded this episode twice. The second time we had too much back feed, and it wouldn't have been able to be listenable. We landed back with our first recording, made of Zoom, and we thank our wonderful editors for mastering it as they do.
I just laugh a little with this episode because the voice captures many different waves of experience.

We track this episode release during Samhain, just right timing-it doesn’t have to be anything but what it is.
This amazing time of their lives through social artistry, and how live presents itself.
Eve landed on the West Coast pre-tech which now a days seems like very much a thing of the past’s past.
Eve tracks spiritual inquiry. As the fire kindles behind us, we talk of how work that matters, may not matter with the way the world is whirling us.
This to me speaks judgment, the coming of days in many ways. If we start to evaluate everything we do, we find ourselves in stagnation.
There Is a need to participate, but what does this really look like? We dance betwixt and between this liminal space, and with all hallows upon us.
These conversations, these stories are so valued on how we hold ourselves and humble ourselves.
We close with relating to the non-human world with the sentience that it is. During this time, we explore that which we cannot see.

We open in prayer. This is a practice I am honored to lean into, and know how deeply it is to sit with this. Isis Indriya is a cultural change maker, a priestess of this paradigm shift.
I was in such deep reverence to be able to speak with them about this work, about the sun and its rays. As it sets on Virgo Season, this is what I see as the setting sun of summer within this episode.
This was a spiritual voyage with Isis, and I would be see nothing less when you see their work in the world. I took a long ass time to air this episode, partially because it needed to incubate in its own liminal realms for a while. Listening to it, I can even hear my own voice dropping into this present state.
Excuse my ums ya’ll in this episode!
I was more nervous than I thought! There is a little noise background in the middle of the podcast, we can’t shift those moments.
Isis is a bridge builder, a space holder, a gatherer. Her and Eve Bradford co-create the container for the Compass at LIB, a transformative festival in California.
Isis holds down the question, that I feel like is the backbone of this podcast..WHO ARE WE? This question is such a way of understanding our innate cosmology, how these fibers are woven together.
The sun card radiates so truthfully through this episode. It shows up the power of connection when we show together and in community. Simply to be grateful for this life. The art of seeing oneself in everything, and receiving the feedback are the rays of honesty that conducts a life of offering in beauty and wonderment.
Remembering we have a role and purpose, tuning into our purpose and design is to be of service and to support the web of life. Isis breaks down in such a way that is grows roots and soaked in stardust.
