After embodying the Wheel of Fortune, we found our true north--our knowing of who we are, where we want to go and what we wanna do. We made an internal commitment to stay the ever-changing course with that truth in tact, but it may be best if we're willing to keep the exact "location" of our true north at least a little bit flexible. Otherwise, we may find ourselves creating unnecessary resistance each time we are confronted with beliefs or values different than our own. We never know who we'll meet or what we'll experience and learn on the way to wherever it is we feel like going in this lifetime.*Episode cover art features Bloodmoon Tarot by Sam Guay, Guardian of the Night Tarot by MJ Cullinane, Esmerlize Tarot, and Mystic Faerie TarotAcknowledgements:The Jungian Tarot, Robert Wang; The Brady Tarot, Emi Brady; Tarot of The Dark Goddess, Ellen Lorenzo-Prince; Tarot of The White Witch, Maja D’Aoust; The Spacious Tarot; Guardian of The Night Tarot, MJ Culliane; Thoth Tarot; 78 Degrees of Wisdom, Rachel Pollack; Medicine Woman Tarot, Carol Bridges; Relax & Renew: Restful Yoga for Stressful Times, Judith Lasater, NASW Code of Ethics https://www.socialworkers.org/About/Ethics/Code-of-Ethics/Code-of-Ethics-English 8th House Healers Podcast is Eliza Harris and Sarah Cole-McCarthy.

“Events may unfold that redirect your path. Some things may feel beyond your control. Find the larger pattern in the chaos. The revolving cycles of nature may bring disruption, but they are always reliably in forward motion. When your soul compass spins, find stillness in experiences that easily allow you to be yourself. Trust life to come into being; there is transformation in each turn of the wheel. What emerges from this development will point to your true north.”-Latisha Guthrie, The Herbcrafter’s Tarot*Episode cover art features Linestrider Tarot by Siolo Thompson, Brady Tarot by Emi Brady, Leonora Carrington, Esmerlize Tarot.Acknowledgements:Medicine Woman Tarot, Carol Bridges; Mary El Tarot, Marie White; Dark Goddess Tarot, Ellen Lorenzi-Prince; Linestrider Tarot, Siolo Thompson; The Druidcraft Tarot, Philip Carr-Gomm; The Jungian Tarot, Robert Wang; The Herbcrafter’s Tarot, Joanna Powell Colbert/ Guidebook by Latisha Guthrie8th House Healers Podcast is Eliza Harris and Sarah Cole-McCarthy.

There’s a reason we want to head for the hills when we need a break from the hustle and bustle of life. The Hermit archetype reminds us to seek guidance and illumination from our own self-reflection in solitude. In the quiet and the dark, we are more receptive to messages from Spirit. “Within nature, within your mind, seek out the still and sacred places where magic is heard and felt and seen. Spend enough time to feel this as an integral part of who you are. Learn through experience over instruction. Follow intuition over authority. Ask invisible friends to be your companions. Explore and deepen relationships with unseen beings.”-The Dark Goddess Tarot, Ellen Lorenzi-Prince*Episode cover art features Paulina Tarot by Paulina Cassidy, Oak, Thorn & Ash Tarot, and Forager’s Daughter Tarot by Jessica Lei HowardAcknowledgments:Led Zeppelin, Carol Ritberger, ‘Porcupine’, in Medicine Cards by Sams & Carson, 78 Degrees of Wisdom by Rachel Pollack, Medicine Woman Tarot by Carol Bridges, Dark Goddess Tarot (The Hermit as Baba Yaga) by Ellen Lorenzi-Prince, The Forager’s Daughter Tarot by Jessica Lei-Howard, Paulina Tarot by Paulina Cassidy 8th House Healers Podcast is Eliza Harris and Sarah Cole-McCarthy.

Just in time for the fall equinox and to celebrate Olivia on her first birthday in the Spirit realm, we invite you to join us for 8th House Healers’ Season 2- the second leg of The Fool’s Journey through the Tarot. ‘I Am Strength’ is dedicated to the memory of Olivia Newton John 9.26.1948 - 8.8.22.There is an infinite force about us, like a cosmic Möbius strip; we are part of its perpetual balancing act. Divine Strength is like a fulcrum, it takes finesse to find the sweet spot, to exert, to hold back, to bring the head into harmony with the heart. *Episode cover art features Olivia Newton John in promotional photo shoot from the motion picture Xanadu, and stock images of a lion and a lemniscateAcknowledgments:Olivia Newton John (John Farrar, Xanadu), Solid Gold, ELO, The Police, The Beatles, Arthur E.

We're all just walking each other home. ~ Ram DassOur will is an ever-evolving compass pointing in correlation with our thoughts and actions. The Chariot is the movement and control of the elements once our will has taken hold.Once we commit to a goal we have a choice to rest in the belief it is possible and we already have all we need to make it so--even if its just curiosity at first.In this episode, Eliza introduces Hedy, her family's newest fiery addition, and we discuss how we've felt the wisdom of The Chariot at work in our lives.*Episode cover art features Smoke, Ash & Ember Tarot, Otherkin Tarot by Siolo Thompson, Mystic Faerie Tarot, and Esmerlize TarotAcknowledgments:The Time Traveller’s Wife, Audrey Niffenegger; Tarot of the White Witch, Maja D’Aoust; Otherkin Tarot, Siolo Thompson, Tarot of the Crone, Ellen Lorenzi-Prince; Medicine Woman Tarot, Carol Bridges, Eliza sings Jimi Henrix' "Spanish Castle Magic"8th House Healers Podcast is Eliza Harris and Sarah Cole-McCarthy.

Happy Birthday, PRINCE Rogers Nelson! We love you and celebrate your artistry- and legacy- in ‘I Am The Lovers’. The Lovers. Within what may be considered a theory of psychological development, otherwise known as the Tarot, the Lovers archetype represents, among many other interpretations, the ability of the mind to be aware of & in constant relationship with yet another—more idealistic and wise self—lurking somewhere out there in the ether, heaven, dark matter; No one really knows where consciousness calls home, ya know? But we digress. Must be the Gemini in us.

‘I Am The Hierophant’Inner knowing is the key. But while it is important to cultivate knowledge, it is equally critical to share our wisdom. The Hierophant is the wise teacher archetype within us, secure in the ability to guide others towards the source of their own illumination. When it comes to sharing our perspective with the world, what part of us is responsible for gauging its authenticity? We are, in fact, the only being who truly understands the intentions behind our own words and actions. A healthy relationship with our inner Hierophant is a gift despite the challenges that arise when our actions don't quite match our heart's intent. Sometimes the greatest teacher is taking the road less traveled and welcoming these obstacles.“Everyone is, in fact, a teacher and a creator, and we all learn from each other. Respect other people’s belief systems even if they do not make sense to you, it is not your place to force your views and opinions on others. Free will to choose should be protected. Do not give away your power to others. Stand in your own truth and know that your power is yours to keep. You are far more valuable than you know. Don’t let others make you believe that you are less than you are. Enslavement can be a personal choice if you hold others in higher value than yourself.” - The Hierophant, Master of Keys, El Goliath Tarot*Episode cover art features El Goliath Tarot, background art by ElizaAcknowledgements: The Medicine Woman Tarot (Peacemaker= Hierophant), Carol Bridges; Claudine @thedeathfaerie; Weston of Root Lock Tarot Podcast; Mary El-Tarot 2nd edition, Mary White; The Fonz; The Dark Crystal; Glinda of ‘The Wizard of Oz’; Baba Yaga as The Hermit in The Dark Goddess Tarot, Ellen Lorenzi-Prince8th House Healers Podcast is Eliza Harris and Sarah Cole-McCarthy.
