Healing The Spirit: Astrology, Archetypes & Artmaking

What if we slow down in moments of frustration?

What if we remember that infinite options are available, given time, space, and awareness?

What if you give yourself the gift of being frustrated, without letting it run your entire life?

November feels like an interesting, mixed bag kind of month astrologically.

On the one hand, we have the resource of Venus in Libra. On the other hand, the Sun-Mars square brings tension, delays, and lack of perspective.

In this episode, I discuss how we might navigate the tension and work with the energies that are available.

Started off with a sleepy-brained astrological flail, before plunging into the potent, intense field of Creative Exorcism.

I talk about what this offering is, who it’s for (and not for), and why creativity that can be taught is not real creativity.

The next cohort of Creative Exorcism, an apprenticeship with the creative process, begins on Saturday, October 31st. Join here.

CW: I woke up with a lot of F* bombs in my system. None were edited in the recording!

Woah. This one feels big!

At the start of 2026, I tuned in and shared three main themes for the collective (those episodes are linked below).

One of them was Healing The Father Wound.

This past week, while busy preparing for the next round of Creative Exorcism, one of my core offerings, this entire 3-part workshop on The Father Wound & Creative Healing came rushing in.

This podcast is Part 1.

You can join the free workshop here for Part 2 and Part 3, which is a live class.

Or join Creative Exorcism, a 12-week container for healing your relationship with creativity, here.

PS - I’m experimenting with new aesthetics for the pod & for my website. Love it? Hate it? Let me know!

Where might I benefit from doing or having less?

What do I need to release to actually enjoy a slower pace?

These are the radical questions October asks us to contemplate.

After the rebuilding of this past September, it’s tempting to try to move at a million miles per hour.

Instead, October is about being with tension and building strength necessary to be with that tension.

In this episode, I share three themes to return to, to be with, and to contemplate throughout October.

Share your thoughts in the comments section! I’d love to hear how it goes.

Ask Jonathan is back!

Today, we answer a juicy question asked by a Substack listener:

“A question that’s coming through for me right now is about change. Big changes. The question is two fold:

1. I’d love to hear how you know when the change you’re being invited to make is in alignment for the best

2. And then, when doubt creeps in, what do you do?”

How might returning to our spiritual foundations help us navigate the aftermath of eclipse season?

How do we allow forgiveness to emerge, rather than treat it as yet another thing to achieve on our list?

How do we consciously, intentionally leave the past behind?

September asks us to consider these questions. After the cosmic re-arrangement of the eclipse, we’re invited to continue returning to our foundational practices to clear the debris and finally appreciate the space that’s emerging for the new.

This week feels different than the rest of the month. We’re building towards a Partial Lunar Eclipse in Pisces. And this one’s kind of a f****r.

We’re humans with egos, so letting go isn’t always going to go down easy.

In this episode, I shared some perspectives to make it suck a little less. I also make sure you have some practices you can return to when things get challenging.

The end of the month brings fireworks with Jupiter in Leo trining Saturn in Aries. This transit asks you to try things out and follow your instincts, even if it feels scary.

Astrologically, we’re now solidly exploring terrains with no map. The only compass you have is your own gut instinct. The past is not here anymore. Let’s wake up and birth the new.

Let me know how this episode lands. I read every single comment.

When it comes to heart, we’ve been fucked by Disney.

The heart is a ferocious organ of perception. It’s the center of wisdom, intelligence, and the repository of the person’s life. Not some mushy, diluted, spiritualized branding to slap on.

As old ways of relying on the mind as ruler of everything is clearly breaking down, we’re craving new ways of being.

The heart is the answer. But its intelligence may completely baffle you.

In this episode, I share some signs that your heart is activating. These signs may be surprising because our minds aren’t accustomed to associating them with the heart.

Let me know how this lands. I’m curious to hear your thoughts.

On the surface, Venus and Mercury are flirting, playing, and cajoling with the outer planets. But underneath, there’s a more profound lesson at play.

Interdependence is a tricky concept. We’re so immersed in our resistance to skillful relationality, so we instead toggle back and forth between codependency and hyper-independence.

How do we behave in ways that reflect the interconnected nature of our wellness, liberation, love, and truth?

How do we collaborate without holding ourselves back?

How do we truly and intentionally bring out the best in one another?

I offer some practices here. Have a listen and let me know your thoughts.

Welcome to August!

We discussed three themes for August 2026:

* Power is relational.

* Prioritize your heart.

* Surrender into the mystery.

This month, we’re being asked to listen deeply. To pay attention to what truly wants to be communicated and expressed beyond the words.

We’re also asked to understand and experience our heart expansion more deeply. The journey is ecstatic, euphoric, and sometimes excruciating, and the reward of choosing the heart is that new doors will open for you.

Finally, we’re walking into eclipse season in August, and there’s major shedding that would like to occur in our lives. This is not failure. This is a graduation point. Stay close to your spiritual practice, trust the Inner Sage, and let the big emotions move through, so you can make space for the new.

Somehow, you’ve found yourself in the thick of the drama of life.

Feelings getting hurt.

Misunderstandings abound.

The stakes feel high.

You can choose to fight the experience. Find someone to blame. Work hard to find the ‘right’ solutions.

Or you can choose to allow it in. To see everything as part of what you’re building. Even if you can’t fully understand how the pieces are fitting in right now.

This is your invitation to trust in the soft, supple strength of focusing on your own paper.

Have you noticed how hard it is to walk around with the belief that nobody likes you?

Or how tough conversations get when you already decided that everyone’s out to get you?

Or how complicated it gets to move forward when you choose to believe that you’re going to fail anyway?

If this is where you’re at, and you’re ready to begin shifting the pattern, this reading is for you.

Reality check: Are you holding your breath right now, as you’re reading these words?

When you hold back your breath, you’re also constricting your inherent power. Exhale. Let the body loosen. Let the belly soften.

You’re experiencing feelings that seem to contradict each other. Pain and affection. Loneliness and closeness. Allow them to lead you into a new way of seeing.

What if you move at the pace of your body? How is your awareness showing you the right next move?

What are you truly here to see?

Sit with your power. Not power over. Power as agency. Power as choice. Power as creativity, beauty, participation, wisdom. Return to your own knowing. Keep your attention on what’s actually here, and let that be enough.

This conversation with Nisha Mody is a banger.

We discussed:

* The complexity of mother-daughter relationship

* The importance of honesty, accountability, and addressing systemic issues (like patriarchy, generational gap, and cultural expectations) in the process of ancestral healing

* The ways that love, guilt, and responsibility get tangled in the space between family members

* The difference between escape and freedom

I loved how grounded this conversation was. We weren’t just talking about healing in the abstract, but about the everyday messiness of real relationships: from awkward conversations about boundaries with primary caretakers to the subtle ways we might abandon ourselves to find belong at the start of romantic relationships.

I’ve long admired Nisha’s eloquent, honest shares about her divorce, ancestral healing, and career transitions. Her newsletter is full of practical wisdom and loving-yet-unflinching call-ins.

If you resonate with Nisha’s perspective, consider joining her upcoming workshop (Saturday, July 18, 2026) for mothers and daughters with James-Olivia Chu Hillman: Navigating Tension and Connecting with Intimacy.

Nisha’s bio:

Nisha Mody (she/her) is a healer and writer who lives in Los Angeles on Tongva land. She supports her clients to actually like themselves instead of believing the lies ruminating in their head. She is currently writing a memoir about how her abusive marriage helped her learn the difference between escape and freedom. You can find her on Instagram @healinghypegirl and her website http://www.nishaland.com/.

When you watch your process with more curiosity and less judgment, you begin to see that angelic forces are helping you along.

Sometimes, aid comes in the form of a changed perspective. Perhaps you don’t need to obsess around “Am I moving forward?” Because in many ways, you always are.

The rebel, the comic, and the creator are present this week. The rebel questions everything. The comic reminds you not to take it too seriously. And the creator is here to be the bridge, to take the next step, and to make something meaningful from what you’re feeling right now.

Breathe. Pause. Trust in the support available. Stop trying to make life what it’s not.

I’m back with monthly readings…And maybe even weekly ones!

I pulled cards and channeled three interconnected themes for the month:

* Creative reclamation: Queen of Wands is the main theme, the mascot of this month. There’s a force in you that wants to break through. You’re invited to go after what you want, to be seen, and to have new experiences. Be sure to make room for pause and reflection after these breakthroughs.

* Transformation through Fertility & Abundance: The Empress is the portal, the work we’re here to engage. Pay attention to the subtle, yet significant and life-supporting ways that abundance is already present in your reality. Luxuriate in what’s already available.

* Treat Imbalance as a Teacher. Adjustment / Justice is the teacher and the anchor point. Notice where things aren’t reciprocalThis is a month for pruning, for looking clearly, while not rushing to make the discomfort right or wrong.

Go deeper by joining my course Creative Exorcism here. For 9 weeks, you’ll be guided to do a daily ritual that heals your relationship to creativity and recovers artistic expression.

A juicy episode for a juicy topic!

There are three places I’d look to if you come to me wanting to heal your creative trauma:

* how you define creativity and what being an ‘artist’ means to you

* who you put pedestals and the stories that hold the pedestals

* your relationship to work

I discuss all three points in great detail.

If you want to go deeper, join my course Creative Exorcism here. For 9 weeks, you’ll be guided to do a daily ritual that heals your relationship to creative and recovers your creative confidence.

My relationship with the creative force was one of the most fraught areas of my life.

It’s the one area that brought up the most fear, the most anxiety, and the deepest heartbreak.

It’s also an area where I’ve learned to do the most significant, personally-meaningful transmutation and alchemy.

In this episode, I share some of my current contemplations on reclaiming the inner creative.

Engaging with our innate creative force, seeking the holy grail of true artistry, and walking the spiritual path are not separate endeavors.

And for the creative mystic, the challenge of bringing all these facets together into a cohesive, flowing conversation is one of the most satisfying endeavors.

How might aligning with Deep Time assist us in trusting ourselves and, more importantly, trusting the constant unfolding of the cosmos?

In this episode, I invite us to contemplate the nature of time to consider how we relate to our own processes.

From the perspective of deep time, we are always in process. Across lifetimes, across different chapters within our current lifetime, and across myriad collective evolutions we move through.

At the same time, the human experience of impatience, frustration, and disappointment comes with the territory. The question isn’t about avoiding or bracing for these experiences. But rather, how one can create space for deeper curiosity toward various layers of our experiences.

Curiosity is a portal. It’s a way of aligning with the larger flow of life, with the trickster current, with this cosmic body we are part of.

I invite you to gaze at your own resistance the way you might gaze at a beautiful aquarium. Letting yourself be in awe without feeling the need to interfere. To treat the light, spacious observing of your own patterns as a creative practice, a way of learning to enjoy the view of your own becoming. This is what mystics and sages call presence: being so engaged with your experience that the impulse to fix or change it dissolves.

Paradoxically, this becomes the secret to alchemizing tension. Because life is always expanding in all directions.
