Ep 33: From earth to sky - tending to your moon sign and the elements with Emma Kupu Mitchell

Welcome back to the podcast! In today’s episode I have the pleasure of speaking with my friend and colleague Emma Kupu Mitchell to discuss using your moon sign as a practical self-care tool for grounding during stressful times, overwhelm, life transitions, or just as an everyday practice for self-study. Emma is a holistic practitioner and a creative spiritual guide for women in midlife and beyond.This conversations was inspired by Emma telling her daughter to “do your moon” while adjusting to university life in England. Emma shares her background in aromatherapy, Ayurveda, massage, and nature-based living, plus a love-hate relationship with astrology that emphasizes taking “spoonfuls” and focusing on embodied, elemental connection rather than overwhelm or rigid predictions. You’ll hear us frame astrology as an ancestral, seasonal navigation tool to observe how different lunar transits affect one’s inner life, not binary “good/bad” interpretations. If you are new to astrology or want to deepen your connection with the elements and daily practice of self study, I recommend you get out your journal and follow along! This is a public episode.
