This Erotic Timeline

The frightened body is fast — cortisol floods you, and it doesn't care what time it is, it just says move. This week we ask what actually constitutes a warrior's timing, and find an uncomfortable answer: the too-quick inflamed response and the frozen, collapsed one are the same failure. Both are a body that has lost its ability to perceive the opening in time. So we go looking for people who survived the unsurvi...

This week's sky is tectonic and tender — a Cancer New Moon conjunct Mercury retrograde, a rare outer planet harmony between Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, and Jupiter, and an invitation to sink into what the body already knows. The astrology section moves through Ubuntu philosophy, the cost of self-protection, and what it actually means that a person is a person through other persons.

The descent finally ...

Capitalism needs you to believe that commitment without guaranteed success is stupid. That's not an accident — that's the design. This week's Mercury Cazimi at 20 degrees of Cancer burns that story clean and asks a different question: what would you fight for even if failure was guaranteed? To answer it, we go looking through Cancer's mythology — a Babylonian turtle, an Egyptian scarab, a Greek crab who cl...

This week's astrology is big — a Full Capricorn Moon, Mercury stationing retrograde conjunct Jupiter, and Jupiter entering Leo for a year — and the descent follows a thread that starts with a personal grievance and ends somewhere darker: the full history of who’s been taking the time from our sleeping bodies, and how it got corporate. From William Willett's 1907 pamphlet to wartime Germany to St. Pau...

Someone called New Orleans a terminal patient this spring. This episode is a response to that. We move through the week's astrology — a Monday of loud, reclaimed desire; a Tuesday of water-body listening; a Thursday of foggy ego-honoring; a Sunday where devotion, strategy, and want finally stop contradicting each other — and then descend into what New Orleans actually knows. About mud. About swamps. About ...

Caesar remade the Roman calendar and dedicated a temple to a domesticated goddess in the same year. This episode traces what those two moves have in common and what they cost us.

The astrology this week is all Venus: sparking with Uranus on Monday, dreaming with Neptune on Tuesday, and facing Pluto's underworld directly on Wednesday. The descent follows Venus's warrior origins across Sumerian and Babylon...

This week's astrology centers on Mercury in Cancer squaring a lineup in Aries (Vesta, Saturn, Athena) — a week-long tension between careful speech and urgent action, tended feeling and imperfect forward motion. Venus conjuncts Jupiter in Cancer for one of the sweetest moments of the summer. The myth of Chrysomallus the golden ram anchors Wednesday's pile-on in Aries. Venus enters Leo opposing Pluto, setting up a...

Something was lost in the rounding. A matriarch. A month. An hour that used to breathe with the seasons. This episode goes looking for all of it. The astrology section opens a summer-long invitation — Mercury in Cancer through August, with a retrograde built in — to understand and differentiate from the things that nurtured you. The week's maternal theme runs through Hera/Juno, whose pre-Hellenic story as ...

Episode Description:

This week we’re talking about language as armor, language as weapon, and language as time travel.

Jane Goodall spent 60 years figuring out what makes humans different from chimpanzees. Her answer: we can speak of things that are absent — the past, the future, ideas that don't exist in any room we're standing in. I explore how whoever gives you the words gets...

Your body is not a vehicle. It's a timekeeping system. This week, the sky is moving slow enough for you to hear it.

Episode 5 moves from a beautiful week of astrology —Mars into Taurus, Venus into Cancer, and a Uranus cazimi asking which kind of revolution we're committed to— into a descent on the Mayan timekeeping practices that have been changing how I understand what time is, where it live...

Saturday's Taurus New Moon arrives conjunct Mercury, the asteroid Ceres, and the fixed star Algol (the Demon's Head) at the exact moment the International Energy Agency is calling the current oil disruption the greatest energy security crisis in recorded history. Their recommendation: work from home. Slow down. Minimize travel.

What if the corporations farming our attention accidentally gave us the most radical favor in the history of collective awakening?

In this episode, I trace a 600-year arc, from Gutenberg's printing press to the iPhone, to ask what actually happened to human attention, and why so many of us are collapsing under the weight of our own feelings right now. The answers I explore involve deep time, the coloniza...

What if desire isn't something you feel but something that happens to you? Something bigger than a preference, older than a craving, that doesn't ask permission before it starts rearranging your life?

In Episode 2 of This Erotic Timeline, we move through the astrology of the week (April 27 to May 3, 2025) including a grand air trine that lets collective freedom actually be felt, a potent Scorpio Full Moo...

Why does urgency make it so hard to actually move?

In this episode of This Erotic Timeline, we explore time scarcity — that creeping, collective sense that time is running out — and what it does to our bodies, our relationships, and our ability to show up for w...

Welcome to the first episode of The Erotic Timeline.

In this prelude, I introduce the central question behind this podcast: What if we are living through not just political and cultural upheaval, but a deeper shift in the timeline itself?

Blending reflections on astrology, Mayan timekeeping, trauma, capitalism, colonialism, and embodied healing, I explore the growing sense that the systems ...
