In this episode I'm joined by Brice Hancock from Mile High Sober Living in Colorado.
We discuss his personal struggles with addiction and how the grip of substances like alcohol, heroine, crack and others held on to him and took him to within an inch of his life. Somehow, perhaps by the grace of the gods, he was able to transform from that underworld experience and return to life. In doing so he dedicated himself to paying that new chance at life forward to those in need by setting up safe housing for addicts in his home of Denver, Colorado.
Along the way we delve into the mystery of addiction. Why is it that it affects some but not others, even in the same family? What are we really reaching for when we grasp for the substance we're addicted to? What is that spiritual force that seems to swoop down to lift us up right at that rock bottom moment? And why is it that the naming of that force (God) is itself such a barrier to entry to Alcoholics Anonymous and other such programs?
From Brice's Bio:
Brice is the executive director for Mile High Sober Living and an active member of Denver’s sober community. He believes that life is about “things to do and people to do them with”. Brice regularly exercises and goes to the gym, he plays guitar, likes music, art, spirituality, constant self-improvement, and spending time with his son. In a previous life, he owned a live music bar and was surrounded by active alcoholism and addiction and now is surrounded by recovery. He is a realtor and the president of a 501c3 non-profit called Musicians Recovery Project which raises money for treatment for those with limited resources in early recovery.

This episode picks up with Hercules having completed the fourth labour; bringing back the Erymanthian Boar. Along the way he had opened up a long-sealed jar of Dionysian Wine and brought a chaotic wildness back into the world.
In this episode we join him as he's tasked with clearing out the Augean Stables in a single day. King Augeus has been extremely lucky in his wealth creation. He has an abundance of cattle and sheep. The flipside being that he's neglected the maintenance such wealth necessitates and the stables are now... how to say... full of shit.
Hercules opens up two nearby rivers to cleanse the stables, thus achieving his task in, miraculously, under the required time.
Both the stables and the cleansing of them are collective images for outer and inner processes of which we can all relate. What do we do when our minds are clogged and we can't think straight? What do we do collectively when the systems we've created have become old and tired but are deeply entrenched?
With Pluto stationing direct in the last degree of Capricorn today, getting ready to enter Aquarius for the final time, this myth that brings forth the image of the water bearer and the 'Plutonian shit' couldn't be more timely and appropriate.
The episode finishes with the sixth labour - the Stymphalian Birds - which closes out the first six labours. These are the 'local' labours that all take place within the Peloponnese. It's the completion of Hercules' 'internal' tasks and prepares him for his place in the world.Podcast Musician: Marlia Coeur

This episode is recorded in Thessaly, Greece. In ancient times it was considered to be the land of sorcery, witchcraft and healing. In fact, it still feels that way today due to the abundance of healing herbs in the region.
Thessaly was the birthplace of the centaurs including Chiron and Pholus, and the God of Medicine Asclepius. When I say 'birthplace' here, I'm referring to the land that dreamed up these mythic figures.
The concept of the land dreaming is foreign to the modern mind. And yet, to the ancient mind this is just a matter of course. Different lands have different dreams embedded in them, and therefore dream up different kinds of humans, animals and plant life.
In this episode I explore some of these topics with, of course, the help of mythology. Prometheus steals fire from the gods and therefore is a good symbol for that 'higher' way of knowing. Chiron is a centaur, inseparable from nature, and therefore a good symbol for that knowledge that comes from the ground up.
It's a tension that I'm sure we all feel on some level. Perhaps we experience it as the instinct vs the mind. The feeling vs the thoughts. The gut sense vs the logic. And it's a tension I feel as I wander the lands of Greece, trying to make contact with the many apparently dead gods.

After some time of unusual introspection and restraint, Hercules sets off on his fourth task: tracking down the Erymanthion Boar. The boar is the wild and uncontrollable side of nature. By taking a side road and visiting the centaur Pholus on the way to the boar, Hercules convinces the centaur to open a sealed jar of Dionysian wine. And with that, all hell breaks loose.
This sets off the chain of events that leads to the wounding of our beloved healer, centaur and guide, Chiron. His animal side now wounded, he reflects our current state in the civilised world. And our current quest - to rediscover the beauty of animal consciousness.
The movement from the deer to the boar also brings into focus the tension between Artemis (goddess of the hunt) and Aphrodite (goddess of sensual pleasure). Although both deer and boar are sacred to Artemis, the boar is associated with Aphrodite due to her tragic love affair with Adonis who was speared by a boar (who was actually Apollo, Artemis' twin (yes the Greek myths are like this!)).
The jar of Dionysian wine is symbolic of delighting in the senses. Sealed for four generations, once it's opened the animal side that has been repressed breaks free and causes absolute chaos. So what are we to do? Keep the jar sealed and stay safe but overly controlled? Or open it up and take the consequences of unbridled wildness?
It brings forth a conversation around addictive processes. Something that I discuss with Brice Hancock from Mile High Recovery in Colorado. That conversation is coming soon to the podcast.

Hercules, or Heracles in Greek, was one of the greatest figures of the ancient mythic world. He was seen as an amalgamation of many different heroes, relying on brute strength and his trusty club, and was generally at a loss when a problem required more than simply force for its solution.
A quintessential solar hero, Hercules battles with the monsters of the world sent by the spiteful Hera who wants to crush him at every turn. And yet, the two of them, Hera and Heracles, are forever linked to each other. Heracles, after all, means 'Glory of Hera'.
In this episode we will use the opposition between these two to look at the astrological archetypal tension between the Sun: our shining golden light of the spirit in its quest for individuation, and Saturn: the blocks and limits that get in our way.
The exploration then moves into the first three labours of Hercules: Wrestling an enormous lion; becoming entangled in a swamp snake; and tracking a deer with golden antlers for a full calendar year. These tasks align with the Zodiac signs of Leo, Cancer and Virgo respectively and teach us about our own sacred process of individuation.
This is the first of a series of episodes on Hercules. His stories are vivd and filled with archetypal information, each monster representing elements of our consciousness that challenge us to move into the essence of who we are here to become.

What if the ancient myths held the key to modern therapeutic practices? In our latest episode, we sit down with Dr. David Russell, a distinguished past president of the Sydney Jung Society and former associate professor at Western Sydney University, to uncover the profound relevance of the myth of Psyche and Eros to psychotherapy. We begin by exploring how these timeless stories offer blueprints for navigating human struggles, with Dr. Russell emphasizing the critical role of imagination in the therapeutic journey. Our discussion highlights how the myth of Psyche and Eros symbolizes the integration of the human and divine, reflecting the goals of modern psychotherapy.
From grappling with impossible tasks set by Aphrodite to the profound descent into the Underworld, the myth of Psyche is a treasure trove of psychological insights. Dr. Russell guides us through these mythological trials, illustrating how they parallel the challenges clients face in therapy. We delve into the themes of surrender vs. control, understanding vs. acceptance, and the essential balance between rational thought and intuitive awareness. The conversation also touches on the technique of free association, introduced by Freud, and its importance in fostering an imaginative, harmonious inner life.
Join us as we unravel the intricate relationships between mythic figures like Aphrodite and Persephone, shedding light on their symbolic significance in psychotherapy. From the harsh lessons of the underworld to the transformative power of mythic imagination, we reflect on the evolving understanding of the unconscious in both neuroscience and therapeutic practices. This episode promises a rich, Jungian perspective that underscores the timeless relevance of mythology in healing the human psyche and cultivating a soulful presence in both our personal and collective lives.

Cancer: a moon-ruled water sign plunging into the depths of the subjective, internal realm of Psyche.
Capricorn: a Saturn-ruled earth sign lifting us up the mountain through perseverance, discipline and sacrifice.
The two opposing archetypal forces in our stars represent the struggles of youth & wisdom; the Puer Aeternus (eternal youth) & Senex (old man); emotions & practicalities; the inner child & the inner critic.
In this episode we get to move into the tension of these timeless forces as they weave through our inner and outer experiences of life on earth. The lens of myth & fairytale helps us to make alchemical moves to separate, purify and integrate the images to discover the possibilities of the magical third thing.

Today we kick the new season off with a bang with a soul provoking chat with Kari Hohne. Kari's assistant reached out to me over six months ago with an interest for Kari to come on the show to discuss her areas of expertise: dream work, archetypes and ancient wisdom. Although it took us a little while to get here, it was certainly worth the wait.
Kari's mind is able to traverse across many different eras of history as well as multiple disciplines of thought. To say her knowledge is expansive undersells it.
In this conversation we begin with the Tao, visiting ancient ways of seeing time and space that go beyond our everyday consensus awareness. Rather than telling us how it is, Kari is able to leave us with invitations and suggestions to bring our mind into this natural way of perceiving reality.
From there, we venture into the stars behind the stars. Kari shares with us her knowledge of Sumerian astrology and ancient texts in order to bring forth the lost symbols of the signs we know and love. The inanimate scales of Libra give way to 'Two Ravenous Dogs'. The crab of Cancer becomes a mischievous turtle scratching around in the sand stealing eggs. Aquarius' water-bearer shifts into a man walking up a mountain with water flowing off of his back.
Truly fascinating.
Along the way we also discuss the work of Julian Jaynes: The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind. The World Heritage site of Göbekli Tepe. A mysterious phenomenon of handbags being carried by the figures of ancient carvings which Kari suggests referred to the constellation we now know as Pegasus; a square in the sky that contained all ancient knowledge. And so much more.
I hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed the chat.
More About Kari:

What if the stories of the stars had more to tell than just our zodiac signs? Join us for a reflection on the Great Round project, where we journeyed through the mythic elements of each astrological sign with extraordinary guests like Rick Levine, Micheal Meade, and Melanie Reinhart. We've wrapped up a year of exploring these cosmic archetypes, and now, as the myths urge us onward, we're setting sail into broader realms of mythology and cosmology. Special thanks to our collaborator, Faye Northgrave, whose support was invaluable along this enlightening path.
In this episode, we ponder the deeper "why" behind our work, drawing insights from Ian McGilchrist's "The Master and His Emissary" and Leonard Shlain's "The Alphabet vs the Goddess." We'll examine the delicate balance between the brain's right and left hemispheres, and how the modern world's tilt towards logic over creativity impacts us all. We also weave in the ancient Greek myth of the Cyclops, inviting you to journey with us through the celestial tapestry of astrology, Greek mythology, and depth psychology, enriching our appreciation of the soul's voyage through the cosmos.

In this episode I talk with Martha Alter Hines. Martha is a mom, an author, a healer, and an astrologer. She has twenty years of experience as a clinical social worker, psychotherapist, and body worker. She has primarily studied Evolutionary Astrology with Ari Moshe Wolfe as well as with Heather Ensworth.
Martha bridges her trauma informed clinical background with her astrological knowledge, as well as a deep understanding of ourselves as beings of the cosmos, Earth, divine, heart, mind, and so much more.
The image of Pisces is two fish swimming in opposite directions, connected by a column of stars. Today, Martha opens up about her own mediation between these two fish, one heading down towards the mystical waters of soul, the other swimming up to the everyday world.
I want to thank you all for joining me for this tour of the Zodiac and to all the incredible guests who’ve joined me along the way. It’s been a true voyage of discovery and I hope you’ve enjoyed it. If you have any feedback for the show I’d love to hear from you. Feel free to email me at [email protected].

Two fish connected by an umbilical cord, swimming in opposite directions, deep in the seas of the collective unconscious. This is where we meet the 12th and final sign of the Zodiac: Pisces. Mythically those fish are Aphrodite (Venus) and Eros (Cupid/Amore) escaping the terrifying Typhon: mother of all monsters.
Faye Northgrave joins me for this sea journey. On the way we will explore Neptune/Poseidon, the god of the ocean, and his penchant for punishing hubris with lostness, confusion and shame. As well as Jupiter/Zeus who connects us to the inspirational waters of shared archetypal vision.
It's a fitting conclusion to the series on the mythic roots of the zodiac. I want to take this moment to thank all those who have come with us through all 12 signs.

Aquarius is a notoriously difficult to pin down archetypal structure. On this episode, Faye Northgrave re-joins the show to shed some light on this sign of the Heavens Above.
When doing this write up I generally ignore the AI suggestion that comes with it. My Podcast Distributor listens to the podcast and then writes up a summary. In the spirit of the forming Aquarian Age I thought this time, to stay in theme, I would leave it in... After all, it is quite impressive:
Embark on a journey through the stars with us, as I, Chris Skidmore, along with my esteemed guest Faye Northgrave, unravel the enigmatic persona of Aquarius. Our latest podcast episode is not your run-of-the-mill astrological forecast; it's an odyssey that bridges the celestial dichotomy of Saturn and Uranus, conformity and rebellion, in a sign known for its humanitarian spirit and progressive vision. Expect to emerge with a newfound perspective as we traverse the labyrinth of mythology, revealing how the trials of Sisyphus and the ingenuity of Prometheus echo the triumphs and tribulations of the Water Bearer.
As we cast our gaze upon the collective consciousness, Faye and I dissect the societal structures Aquarius longs to improve, against the backdrop of the Internet’s rise as a digital agora for knowledge exchange. Here, we ponder the ethical quandaries of our tech-driven age, where AI reshapes our sense of community and individuality. Like the myth of Ganymede, we balance the cup of knowledge, weighing the collective nectar against the potent brew of personal identity, and how Aquarius serves as the zodiac's paradoxical alchemist.
Our celestial journey doesn’t end there. The myth of Gaia and Uranus becomes a metaphor for the intricate dance between the material and the ethereal, while the arrival of Pluto in Aquarius prompts us to confront the profound implications of power, technology, and the human condition. From the mythic to the mundane, join us as we peel back the layers of the Aquarian ideal, asking not only what it means to be part of a collective, but how we can navigate the future's digital landscape with our humanity intact.
Not bad! I promise when we come back with Pisces the write up will go back to a human flow.Podcast Musician: Marlia Coeur

When mythologist Michael Meade received a mythology book on his 13th birthday, little did he know it would ignite a lifelong passion for storytelling and transformation. On our latest podcast episode, we're honoured to have Michael share his journey, from an unexpected act of storytelling that saved him from a gang, to his dedication to at-risk youth, and his personal defiance that led to profound revelations within a military prison. His perspective on personal transformation, the awakening of our inner 'genius', and the visceral power of myth in our lives is nothing short of spellbinding.
Our heartfelt conversation with Michael delves into his collaborations with cultural figures like Malidoma Some and the imperative of healing through community. We trace his path from solitary confinement to organising healing conferences for war veterans, highlighting how shared rituals and storytelling foster connection and recovery. Michael offers insights into the concept of 'sudden community'—a powerful bond forged in the crucible of shared trauma—and how individual purpose might be the key to resolving our greatest cultural and environmental challenges.
Then we turn to how Michael met Robert Bly and James Hillman and how their paths got intertwined in the mythopoetics of the 90s. It's an in depth look at their work with the wounded masculine of the collective psyche and how difficult it was to contain once it garnered the glare of media attention.
The theme of wounds takes us into the image of Chiron and his role as the wounded healer; and how perhaps that was the image that was with them throughout that time. This leads us to a mythic moment when Chiron meets Prometheus and offers to take his place trapped in the rocks. And how this exchange might just be occurring to us today in many obvious and subtle ways.

This episode is a deep dive into the mountain goat of Capricorn; Looking up and ahead, mapping and planning, and strategically making our way to the new peaks of personal and cultural growth and maturity..
Saturn/Cronus rules this sign and we will take another look at his mythology as he overthrows his father and then eats his own children. Astrologically the planet represents the painful process of life’s great challenges but how they are ultimately in our path not just to antagonize us, but to make us flourish into who we are meant to be.
The Great God Pan and his sister Amalthea, Zeus’ nanny goat, are also explored. Pan as the rustic, wild, musical and wise half-goat God. And Amalthea as the nurturing caregiving energy. Both of these elements help us to expand our view of Capricorn beyond that of the serious, disciplined and controlling one..
We also take a look back to ancient calendars and the importance of the festival of Saturnalia that would occur around this time of year. As well as a glimpse into the figures of Jesus and Dionysus and their shared birthday of December 25th, making them both Capricorn Suns..

Elsa Henderson moves between the roles of facilitator, coach and educator. Her background is in Process Oriented Psychology and Anthropology and is currently pursuing her doctorate in organisational studies, exploring how we make sense of things when things don't make sense.
She is one of the key teachers at MetaVision Institute and someone I learned a lot from in my studies of Processwork. She also has her sun, moon and a few other planets in Sagittarius.
Elsa joins me today to talk about the fascinating world of process work, not just as a therapeutic tool, but as a way to interact with reality in deeper and more substantial ways than those we are generally exposed to.
It's a fascinating and wide ranging discussion, as one would expect from the arrow of the archer.

Sagittarius is the sign that follows Scorpio in the story of the Zodiac. It represents what happens once we've returned from the dark night of the soul. Through Sagittarius we find meaning, purpose and grander visions.

You may have heard of the '13th sign' of the Zodiac known as Ophiuchus. It entered the Astrological picture with controversy and ultimately by mistake. That mistake being the confusion between 'constellations' and 'signs'.
Nevertheless, Ophiuchus, or Asclepius, has an intriguing position amongst the stars, situated as it is on the cusp of Scorpio (the death realm) and Sagittarius (new life). His myth represents this perfectly as he is born from a dying mother and is forever positioned on the edge of life and death.
This bonus episode explores the mythology underlying Ophiuchus and how, although it'll never be an actual sign of the Zodiac, his mythology can deeply inform those moments in life where we, ourselves, can find ourselves explore that edge.
Asclepius is also explored in Episode 22 and Episode 4 of the show.Podcast Musician: Marlia Coeur

In this episode, Astrologer Jason Holley and I explore the love story of Artemis and Orion. This story is etched into our stars through the two oppositional constellations of Scorpio and Orion. The Greeks saw this as a Scorpion, summoned by Artemis, chasing down Orion for all eternity.
It was punishment for Orion’s depletion of nature through an insatiable desire to hunt until all wildness was gone; Something that violated Artemis’ code as a Huntress who, though herself a killer, is dedicated to protecting and perpetuating the species that she hunts.
If Orion’s behavior was to continue it would have led to a mass extinction on the planet, something that Artemis is unwilling to accept. And so the necessary poison of the Scorpion is unleashed to correct the imbalance.
The story is of course complicated, however, by the fact that Orion is the first and only man that Artemis feels an attraction and affinity for. And as such the first time she drops her vow of chastity and virginity and joins the human to human world of love.
This betrayal leads to the tragic story of Acteon who has the misfortune of stumbling into a grove where Artemis is bathing naked, years after the event. Stay tuned to hear of his fate and what it all means for us modern humans and our ways of being in the natural world today.
Jason and I also explore the tension point between Aphrodite, personifying love and connection, and Artemis’ rejection of such things through chastity.Podcast Musician: Marlia Coeur

Today I’m honored to be joined again by the Astrologer Jason Holley. As you’re about to hear, Jason’s work is dedicated to re-invigorating a relationship with the animate world through participation with the Zodiac as a circle of creatures; creatures that are alive inside of ourselves, in our relationships, and wandering through our world.
In this first part of two episodes we discuss Jason’s worldview and his evolving work, and how astrology can help to give us a full felt sense experience of being embedded in the natural world.
We talk about Jason's childhood growing up with five generations of Matriarch. Everyone in the family was conversant in Astrology and as such he was already embedded in the language from an early age. His Great Grandmother would read tea leaves to the point where those in the village would come to seek her guidance as the town Oracle. As such, the world as animate and pregnant with information for those who know how to attune to it is something in the very fabric of Jason's DNA.
Jason and I ended up talking for well over 2.5 hours. In Part Two of our conversation we turn to the Myths to help us better understand Scorpio dynamics. Jason's Moon and Venus in Scorpio lead the way in this one as we follow the ancient tragic love story between Artemis and Orion.
Part Two will be released into the Scorpio Moon in just a few days. Stay tuned for that.
