In this podcast, Joe Landwehr joins me to talk about this Age of Uncertainty—which is also part of the title of his latest book. He has over 50 years of experience with Astrology and takes a similar mythopoetic approach as I do. I'm glad he found me and reached out. It was a real treat to speak with him.

Mars Cycles with Adam Gainsburg
Adam Gainsburg returns! It's been years since he was last on the show, but after quite the journey, he and I pick up right where we left off: talking about planetary cycles. I'm not sure how many times Adam has been on the show, but what I can say is that all his appearances have taught me something new about these synodic cycles. I hope you enjoy and learn something new as well from listening.

Deep Astrological Questions with Ray Grasse
Ray Grasse returns to the pod to discuss his new book of essays So, What Am I Doing Here, Anyway? Ranging beyond the astrological into the philosophical, it's a thought provoking collection of the questions we've all asked before, like: How does synchronicity relate to astrology? How in the world do charts still work once a person has already died? Or, Why is it that we are pattern-seeking creatures? I had a great time reading many of these essays and I'm excited to share this conversation with you. Enjoy. Ray's site: Support the show and learn astrology with me: www.patreon.com/adamsommer

Constellating Cosmos: an introduction
In this pod, I give some time to explain the latest changes to the show. For many of you, nothing may seem to change; for others, it may be confusing or abrupt. Inspired by the Jungian concept of constellating psyche, this new title borrows some of its spirit around fully engaging with "archetypes" and leans more into the planetary side of the equation. There will be more focus on cycles moving forward. There will also be many more shows that may seem unrelated to astrology but will be essential for our exploration of all these wyrd ideas. Glad I've still got you along for the ride. -adam to work with me: ...to adventure deeper into kosmos, mythos, and psyche my writing: The Dragon Hole (my Substack): to learn Astrology: ....to support the creation of my writings/podcasts and be showered with gifts as well

Stoicism & Astrology

Stoicism & Astrology
In this show, I try to reconcile the differences between Stoicism and Astrology. There was a time when they existed side-by-side, and it seems they are doing so again today. Both have seen a generous climb in popularity in recent years and I feel they need eachother—well, one needs the other more than the other. I make a case for this in the pod. It's a solo one.

The Trans-Neptunian Planets with Jenn Zahrt
In this episode, Jenn returns to share with us some intel from the outer edges of our solar system. You see, in the early 20th century, there was a school of German astrologers who became fascinated in these "hypothetical" planets beyond Neptune. This was before Pluto's discovery and gained much momentum in certain circles. If you have ever seen the option to put Cupido or Hades in your chart, it's these Uranian planets we explore. Fascinating material. Jenn is always a treat to talk to. I learn something new every time—without fail. Enjoy!

It's also a solo show. I know, I attempted to do all of them as solo shows at the start of the year, but had to squeeze a few conversations in there. I felt lonely. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it.

Being Dreamt: An Astrological Observation
In this show, I share one of my favorite theories of how astrology works and how such a simple technique can change your life forever. It relates to dreaming. The overlap between dreams and transits has intrigued me from the beginning; I have learned so much from the interplay between the two that I feel it's now time to share a few of my findings. I hope it inspires you to do the same.

The Unseen Treasury (On Pluto's transition)
This show is all about Pluto's transition into Aquarius. With all the hype around this "non-planets" ingress in March I thought it a good idea to take some time and spend it in the 18th and 16th centuries to see if I could find anything new. It was an educational thought experiment and I hope it's educational for you as well.

The legendary Wall st. trader used astrology, numerology, geometry, and many other esoteric methods to beat the market. We recorded this just as Mars was sitting on his Gemini Sun. Perfect timing!
