Exploring the Sacred Cycles of Life with Deb Bowen

Message us Mermaids 🧜🏼‍♀️The iconic psychic, author, podcaster and instructor Deb Bowen doesn't just teach spirituality—she lives it. With bare feet touching the earth and altars scattered throughout her home, she embodies the earth-based wisdom she's cultivated over more than five decades of metaphysical study.DetailsOur conversation with this beloved spiritual educator and co-host of the Psychic Teachers Podcast reveals how profoundly her approach to intuitive work has evolved. "I don't think of myself so much as a psychic anymore," Deb confesses, explaining that her mission has shifted toward helping humanity reconnect with Mother Earth. This environmental consciousness permeates everything from her writing to her teaching, grounded in the belief that we exist within "the great giving circle" where humans hold no special place above other beings.Deb's new book, "Crafting the Wheel of the Year," co-authored with Claire Gelder, guides readers through the eight Celtic seasonal celebrations with historical context, spiritual teachings, and accessible craft projects. From Samhain (October 31st) marking the Celtic new year to Mabon at the autumnal equinox, these observances reconnect us with natural cycles too often forgotten in our supermarket-supplied lives. "We forget that bag of carrots used to live in the dirt," she reminds us, "and we forget the people who grew them and picked them."Throughout our discussion, Deb weaves together threads from numerous spiritual traditions while emphasizing discernment—the critical thinking that helps each person discover their own truth. Her inclusive approach mirrors her experience teaching Tarot, where she sees the cards not merely as divination tools but as guides to understanding our connection with ourselves and the world around us.Whether discussing the Beatles' influence on her spiritual journey or offering her friend Joel's wisdom—"push pause, be present, see the spirit"—Deb delivers profound insights with warmth and authenticity. Her teachings remind us that true spirituality isn't about escaping the world but embracing our place within it more fully.Want to learn more about connecting with seasonal rhythms?
