#134 - Gary Lachman - Touched by the Presence - From Blondie’s Bowery and Rock and Roll to Magic and the Occult
Therapeutic Astrology Podcast
2026 is a year when the wheel is turning in a big way, and I have the honor of speaking with Gary Lachman shortly after he’s turned the big seventy; his own significant turn. Gary is a writer and musician, he was a major influence in mid-1970s as a founding member of the rock band Blondie Blondie and other bands. In the 1990s, he transitioned to full-time writing, producing influential works on mysticism and occultism. This intro is inspired by wikipedia but the book we speak about today is a much more accurate and detailed "presentation" - as we speak of his book that is a memoir of magic,...

#133 - David Leskowitz - Sideways from Saturn - Astrological Guidance From The Centaurs
Therapeutic Astrology Podcast
"A mystic directly experiences the flowing waters of inspiration in moments that seem to transcend space and time. Yet these, the coordinates of astrology, can still help us describe such events. Astrologers may seek out patterns that trace our treasured mystics’ meetings with the muses of their ecstasies. If we succeed, their biographies may gain a brilliant new dimension, revealing some of the cosmic architecture through which spirituality flows." Quote from beginning of a chapter by David Leskowitz from the book we focus on today BY THE NAME: "Sideways from Saturn, Astrological Guidance...

#130 - Isabel Clarke - Madness and Mystery - Psychosis and Spiritual Experience
Therapeutic Astrology Podcast
"As human beings we have experience and we have story. We tend to shape the experience with story into a form that makes sense, is comfortable for ourselves, and presents us in the best light to others. In the case of psychosis, and other exceptional and anomalous experiences, the experience threatens to overwhelm story. In these circumstances, the obvious recourse is to go to the ‘experts’, perhaps the doctor, who has a ready story based on the medical model. You are ill. We can treat you." (quoted from Isabel Clarke, Conflicted Stories. A case of expanded reality.) But there is another...

Therapeutic Astrology Podcast
Sometimes, in the world of interviewing, a few cancellations suddenly leave you weeks without a new episode woops!

And honestly, I’m in the best company with the artist and pioneer in the humanist approach to astrology, Dane Rudhyar(1895-1985). I start off with a bit of personal chit-chat,,, feel free to skip ahead and then at some point I dive into Dane Rudhyar’s book "Astrology of Transformation, A Multilevel Approach" from 1980. I read bits, reference key passages, and...

info_outlineCoherence Coach Colin Karewa Forbes is an active Substack writer and in this episode of TAP, we explore the story behind his tagline “Surf the Spiral.” Tap in if you’re curious about awakening from the turbulence of ego-based outcome consciousness into the steady current of process-oriented, Integrated Self! We discuss these Sagittarian themes:
-An experience of Oneness- Constant expansion – Leaving religion—only to find more religion? – The search for truth– Growing a little every day – The importance of reading symbols- Do the astrological archetypes represent ultimate limits, or can consciousness evolve beyond them?
