Summary

When the 7 of Pentacles comes up in a reading it's a sign that we’re worried about all the ways we might fail. But the 7 of Pentacles offers us an opportunity to turn failure into an act of rebellion and … pleasure. In this episode we discuss the relationship between the 7 of Pentacles and the Chariot card; its correspondence to Saturn in Taurus; how 7s usually portend and initiation of some kind; and analyze it all through the lens of Jack Halberstam's glorious book, THE QUEER ART OF FAILURE. Once our guest Flora Pacha joins the convo, we go DEEP into a discussion of the relationship of the 7 of Pentacles to gardening; how plants teach you about love and loss; abuelita knowledge; how to recognize when a plant wants to work with you; creating refuges for life and beauty; how fungi create networks of intelligence; and what we should do if we know the world is ending tomorrow. Our guest this week is queer artist, herbalist, and plant lover Flora Pacha, previously known as La Loba Loca, host of the WildWeeds Podcast, teacher of feminist brujeria workshops, keeper of pigs, and tender of lands. We love them and we can’t wait to introduce you! Join us.

worried about all the ways we might fail. But the Seven of Pentacles also offers us an opportunity

to turn failure into an act of rebellion and pleasure. Stay tuned to find out how.

Listeners, guess what? It's almost time for another between the world's workshop, and this time

1:02.4

it's on the delicious pentacles season theme of abundance. We live on an abundant planet. We live

1:10.3

in an abundant universe, but remembering that can be a challenge in a culture that's modeled on

1:16.8

scarcity. Even if we're managing to make ends meet financially, if we're tired, stressed,

1:25.2

creatively depleted, or if we're uncertain about the future or where our resources are coming from,

1:31.6

we just don't feel abundant, no matter how much we might tell ourselves to feel grateful.

1:37.8

But true abundance includes rest, it includes love, it includes nourishment,

1:44.2

inspiration, security, pleasure. In the natural world, abundance comes through the flow of

1:52.0

energy through the biosphere into our bodies and back into the world again. Abundance is flow.

While taking this workshop will not instantly place a million dollars in your bank account,

2:06.3

and Carolyn has been raving about the same thing, and we can't wait to share all that we've learned
