Episode 2: Vedic Astrology with Kirsten Emma Wood

This week, Kirsten Emma Wood (https://www.seidrfae.com) joins us for a beautiful and indulgent conversation around Jyotish Astrology (known as Vedic astrology in the west).

We talk about:

The Bhagavad Gita awakening their spiritual journey Contacting intuition Reading astrology books as a young adult Attuning to Vedic philosophies Paying reverence to the cultivators of the Vedas and ancient traditions Jyotish being the original astrology Using the planets and stars to align with yogic practice Channeling Celestial expression The difference between Jyotish astrology and tropical astrology The mystique of mercury retrograde

Meet Kirsten Emma Wood (they/them):

My name is Kirsten Emma Wood, I am a queer & trans nonbinary (they/them are my pronouns) intuitive guide and student of many incredible modalities. Currently sharing through the self-created container: Seidr Fae to facilitate gatherings, learning spaces and customized 1 on 1 offerings. As a multidisciplinary artist, writer, educator and eternal student with a deep love of sharing valuable insight, naturally I adore an intuitive and integrated approach.

Ancestrally stemming from a long line of Seidr (Danish word for divination) practitioners and collaboration with the Fae (Celtic earth magic) it is a joy to share these tools from my lineage as a system of aid and guidance.

Along with the brilliant Vedic wisdom tradition I study and specialties therein including the Akasha (Sanskrit word for ether) that acts like the expansive, user friendly internet of a Being, the total enlivening of cosmic consciousness with the divine illumination path of Jyotish (referred to as 'Vedic Astrology' in the west), the sanctity of Yoga consisting of meditation, postures, chants, intent and service and Ayurveda - nature based, preventative, lifestyle wisdom.
