Magic of the Spheres Podcast
Healing, Wholing, and the Underworld with Erica Jones Part 1
On episode 24:
Erica’s astrology work is titled Real Imaginal which is a project about “revitalizing the human relationship to the planetary archetype of Neptune”, which she writes is a “process of re-enchantment, defined in part by the attempt to regain a sense of belonging in a living, aware cosmos.” If you visit her website at realimaginal.com, you can take a pretty deep dive with her on what it means to be re-enchanted, and as you’ll find out in this episode, Erica is a really deep perceiver and thinker. This conversation opened me up to new ways of thinking about one of my biggest planetary companions, Pluto :) and as a very Plutonic person myself that was also healing, to understand from a new angle why I’ve felt and perceived so *intensely* my whole life and why that has put me on a personal development path and driven my interest in the esoteric. Now as an astrologer practicing Pluto-centered astrology I spend so much time with Pluto that this conversation had a way of supercharging me and I trust will also be soul food for thought for you as well.
This episode is very astrological in nature but also very accessible to anyone interested in psychology and archetype, which is how we enter this conversation, as we speak to what the psychological underworld is. After we laid out some psychological foundations for our discussion we dialogued about Pluto, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune and how these archetypes differ when expressed at different octaves of themselves - i.e. the higher expressions of all these planets when healing and "wholing" work has occurred (which we also discuss what that is and how we do it).

359. Saturn at the Very End of Pisces: Meditations on "Dying Well"
46:01|Saturn in Aries brings up meditations on being a beginner again… but before that, Saturn's transit through the end of Pisces brings up meditations on “dying well”. It's worth appreciating that this heavy, slow planet is moving through the very last degrees of the zodiac for the last time for the next 28.5 years, and re-entering Aries for good. The transition between the end of Pisces and the beginning of Aries is highly symbolic for death and rebirth. This segment of the zodiac (the end of Pisces transitioning into Aries) is rich with the very nature of transition/death itself, and the ways we seek to philosophically or existentially complete our lessons and recycle that as wisdom or resource into the next cycle, as opposed to carrying over unfinished business into the next cycle. This connects to the very nature of karma and reincarnation itself, but it's not just about one lifetime to the next. There are smaller cycles within this life that we complete, or don't. Saturn in the later degree of Pisces pressurizes the spiritual questions we have at 'the end of the story', wherever we are personally experiencing endings.connect more: www.sabrinamonarch.com358.

356. The Belly of the Beast & the 8th House with Alisha Gore
59:05|In this episode I speak with a student Alisha Gore who completed the evolutionary astrology intensive and subsequently the advanced yearlong salon DIVINER. I wanted to showcase some projects my students made in the salon and also give you a window into what it can be like to be astrologically fluent in a way that you cultivate your own visions, ideas, and voice. Alisha’s project was about the hero’s journey & its astrological correspondences- her connections here opened up an activating, alive way of contemplating not just the natal chart but also our own relationship to adventure - that mythic lens of reading our life experiences and getting to have a more generative story about what we’re "figuring out”, reconciling, becoming in this life.

355. The Great Defrosting & To Be or Not to Be a Dumb Bitch with Ariana Felix
01:02:55|On episode 355, Sabrina and Ariana Felix talk about "the great defrosting" - a term Ariana coined about Saturn's transit through Pisces after five years of Saturn transiting its home signs of Capricorn and Aquarius. A perfect conversation for reflecting on 2025 in review (and a little deeper in time than that) and the ways you've spiritually matured -- to be wise and embrace your human experience (aka being a dumb bitch).
