  • Undervaluing Our Magic
    Mar 8 2024

    Then, in the spirit of helping you appropriately value your magic, they discuss leaning into the shadow, where to find your value in your chart, in the cards, and how your value grows and evolves.

  • Releasing Our Allegiance to Suffering
    Nov 14 2023

    On today's episode, the mystics commence a deep-dive into the embedded habits of black women not just to expect suffering in their lives, but to fully pledge their allegiance to it. Taught to us by the generations before, black women have come to expect that there can be no reward in life without the expectation of pain or punishment. This can exist in instances of simple leisure to making major decisions in our lives, and we are going to teach you the first steps in breaking this cycle. We will show you how to identify the ideas blocking you from identifying the issue, and then how to finally take action against it.

    Halicue and Karrie invite you to follow them into their past, and give examples of their own experiences confronting, and overcoming, the ingrained embrace of suffering in their lives.

    Featuring this week is Karrie's exploration of Saturn, and its role as a warning sign of trouble in your chart. Halicue's follow-up takes you by the hand and explores the tactic of tarot reading in preparation for confronting one's inner-struggles.
