Danielle Beinstein is an astrocartographer, an expert in zodiac charts, how to read them, and what different houses and alignments might mean for your lived experience. In this conversation with Krista, she touches on everything from the basics of astrocartography and finding oneself, to media programming and social media’s toxic effect on our collective psyche. They also unpack the memeification of astrology and relationships, both external and internal, pointing out the limiting nature of definitive, distilled messaging in the space.We leave with a detailed look at the upcoming energetics of 2023, which planets look to step into the spotlight – and highlight a handful of important eclipses on the celestial calendar.We also talk about: Dropping in to self-love Relationships, perfectionism, and social media Going deeper, not wider  Moving energy through our body How locations affect our experience Intro to astrocartography How to read your chart  Using astrology to find soul alignment Applying chart readings to relationships How are we looking for 2023?

K+L spoke with Lee Harris, renowned channel and author of Conversations with The Z's. With luck, and maybe some divine intervention, Lee received a second download – a message from The Z’s urging him to channel, live, here on the show. This episode, a curated clip from part two of their conversation, presents his channeling of The Z’s in full – a very special honor. Expecting and prompting them for a general message to the collective, K+L are surprised with an intimate and intuitive perspective on their own relationship (and relationships) past, present, and future.

The holiday time is beautiful, and powerful, and magical – and so fucking stressful and confronting. It’s important that we take some time to track spiritual progress with some introspective time alone or with a friend to push and challenge the conversation.In this one, Krista is joined by Sahara Rose to reflect on their spiritual growth, dream about what’s to come, diagnose the great ills of the world, and align their energies to addressing them for the collective – and for themselves. They go into the Matrix for a preview of the future, parse social media’s place in the development of our brains (and species), and make a declarative stand on twerking as a beautiful and ancestral form of female empowerment and sexual power!We also talk about: K+L on holiday family dynamics  Sharing your message vs. valuing your privacy  Self-censorship and social media Posting as a replacement for expression Technology as a tool for improving lives Making the Matrix real Addictive media messaging  Twerking and female empowerment  Who is Sahara today?

As you know by now, Krista is someone who loves to push the limits of what’s possible, to expand her own lived experience and learn new ways of seeing or thinking about things. She travels this path (mostly) unafraid and open-minded.But the prospect of a darkness retreat, she admits, was a scary one.In this special solo episode, Krista recaps her three-day, four-night darkness retreat at Sky Cave Retreats in Oregon and recounts the deep spiritual and emotional lessons she’s taken away from it. There was rage, sadness, and grief; great joy and hours of bodywork; daily peanut butter and jelly sandwiches – and of course, complete and utter darkness. You don’t want to miss this.We also talk about: What is a darkness retreat?
