Revive the true power of the feminine: the peaceful, the wild, and the visceral.Formerly Deep Healing with Jaye AnneAbout Julie: Julie Dean Richards is an attorney, Hellenistic and locational astrologer, numerologist, herbalist, doula, energetic weaver, free-birther, and polyglot. With a doctorate in law and 7 years in research, Julie has always been drawn to spirituality and esoteric topics. She's been featured on 30+ podcasts globally, speaking on the intersection of law, esoteric topics, and the divine feminine. She has lived in 3 countries and speaks five languages. As an astrologer, she focuses on rare timing techniques that help clients understand the patterns and peak periods of their lives to create powerful transformations — blending nature's rhythms, modern astrology, science, and law. She is married to the love of her life and mother of three extraordinary children with whom she travels the country in a tent.Connect with Julie: https://www.instagram.com/astrologicalattorney/About Kayelee: Kayelee is an astrologer, researcher, somatic educator, and homeschooling mom of seven — and the creator of Resonant Astrology, a completely reimagined astrological system built around feminine energy, shadow, and the reclamation of your full self. After nearly a decade of studying traditional and modern astrology, she kept hitting the same wall: the charts mapped masculine archetypes beautifully but seemed to speak around women rather than to them. What she found when she went looking was the Feminine Power Line — Black Moon Lilith and the Eve Point — a precise map of where a woman has cut off her power and where it's waiting to be reclaimed. The Feminine Alchemy Podcast is where she brings that work into the open, for women who are done being almost seen.Connect with Kayelee: https://guide.resonantastrology.com/About Jaye Anne: Jaye Anne is a medical intuitive and astrologer who works with crazybusy, stressed-out women (and men) who cannot figure out how to slow down. Her biological background lets her see into the energetic signatures of specific organs and structures helps her use body signatures and astrology to address any stress problem working in the space of highest good and unconditional love. She uses a technique she developed called functional astrology to empower people to heal effectively. She lives in Virginia with her blended family of four children and husband, where they enjoy darts, football, band, and chauffeuring children.Music: And Watch The Birds Fly by Sapajou | https://www.free-stock-music.com
