After an unplanned hiatus, what's next for us?
A little bit about us:
Jonathan Koe is a queer mystic, artist, and diviner. They're joyfully devoted to exploring body-rooted energy practices and poetic inquiries as living portals into remembering our cosmic kinship. You can find Jonathan on their website, IG, and their other podcast Healing The Spirit.
Mary Schuch (she/her) is committed to showing up for the experience of belonging in a human body. In this lifetime, Mary is steadily walking a resonant path and striving to remember the inherent relationality of all beings. Informed by her upbringing as a homeschooled pastor's kid and the eighth of eleven siblings, Mary is reclaiming her right to exploration and education through meditative multidisciplinary living. She is devoted to practices incorporating writing, music, art, breadmaking, astrology, movement, and being outdoors. A beneficial byproduct of years of manual labor, Mary’s reverence for contemplative time has grown through work in gardens, kitchens, on a commercial lobster boat, and an oyster farm. She is originally from the Chicago area and currently lives on an island in Maine. Connect with Mary on Instagram @maryschuch and book a reading with her.

Mary and Jonathan got together for a riveting exploration of all that Cancer season was bringing up in their lives. Life got busy and they never got to publish the conversation until Leo season. But it wouldn't be true to the Cancer archetype without nostalgia and retrospection, wouldn't it?

Mary and Jonathan gets together for a meaty conversation on one of our favorite topics - our devotion to the learning path and to sharing what we're learning. Within our society (at least in the US where we both reside), we often need to declare our expertise in one specific field. In this conversation, we explore how we navigate weaving our multiple interests, holding multiple identities, and belonging to multiple communities.
PS - We started using this term 'maven' after doing Jonathan Fields's assessment Sparketype.

Mary and Jonathan are meaningfully meandering together again.
As regular givers and receivers of readings, we wonder if perhaps our friendship and this podcast are an extension of our shared tendency to enjoy intense one-on-one connections.

We’re not shy about our admiration for our guest, Rebecca Padgett. She is someone who has become very dear to us over the last few years and we simply adore her.
During this episode, Rebecca graciously offered us an oracle reading for the spirit of the podcast and our collaboration. The space she holds is powerful and we were honored to receive her psychic insights. We hope this gives our listeners a sense of how supportive and expansive it is to be witnessed by Rebecca.
We are thrilled for Rebecca as she assumes the role of the 13th Reader for Britten LaRue's The Magician's Table: A Workshop Circle for Emerging Readers.
Thank you for being with us, Rebecca! We love you! Our life is more bedazzled with you in it :)
Rebecca's bio:
Rebecca Padgett (she/her) is a mystic, artist, and oracle devoted to the unseen world, living in an old farm house in Ontario, Canada. She enjoys living with nature and the wide-open, rural landscape which quiets and expands her mind, as well as immersing her in the cycles of the plants, animals, seasons, and night sky around her. She has previously worked with astrology, tarot, reiki, yoga, as well as intuitive abstract painting, a practice mirroring her life card - The Empress - reinforcing a strong connection to intuition and creativity. As she grows further into her voice, Rebecca finds her work to be the exploration of where these two places meet and interconnect to one another. Her work is ever-changing and growing as she is someone who is devoted to the cyclical nature of the universe and the creative process.
Connect with Rebecca via her website or Instagram.

What (or who) is the third being that arises when we are in collaboration?
As two astrologers, we knew it would be fun to investigate this energetic phenomenon through our composite chart.
Together we meet in the middle as a Cancer Rising, Aquarius Sun and Gemini Moon.
Here is a link to our chart.

In this episode, Mary and Jonathan hang out with their friend and teacher, Leah Garza.
We had so much fun getting into topics we explored with our Living Systems cohort– decoloniality, resonance, relationality, ontology, presuppositions and more. Leah referenced thinkers who have influenced her work and clarified the distinction between “colonization,” “colonialism,” and “coloniality.” We touched on how a near death experience became a pivot point, the significance of a Scorpio seventh house, and how we’re definitely not in a cult together.
Living Systems is a public scholarship course offering theory, praxis, and community based learning on concepts like decoloniality, ontology, post-humanism, indigeneity, and how we can make pathways back to relational living in the face of climate change.
Leah has two upcoming year-long offerings–the highly anticipated second Living Systems cohort and Make the Road, an akashic mentorship designed to help you create devotional, praxis-based relationships with your source of consciousness.
Leah’s bio from her website:
Many worlds exist in this one world. In one world, Leah Garza is a veteran teacher and education organizer. She has spent nearly two decades in social justice movement spaces, working toward equitable change in public education. She earned her masters degrees in education and depth psychology and is currently working on a Phd in community, liberation, indigenous, and eco psychologies. In another world, Leah is a shapeshifter. The trials incurred personally and collectively, through the Trump administration and later the pandemic and uprisings, made her a seeker. Leah learned to engage her ability to shapeshift as she began to ask questions of her purpose in this lifetime. Leah is a practitioner of the Akashic records, and offers radical healing work through the lenses of decoloniality and relational ways of being to subvert the colonial agenda.

In our first episode, we discuss our easeful connection and how we sense our combined spirit to be teaching us about trust. We feel this podcast is a space to practice showing up wholeheartedly in the present moment.
Together, we help one another remember our inherent goodness and anticipate the energetics of this collaboration will inform how we approach whatever comes next. Thank you for listening!
