Summary: We’re in the shadow of Mercury Retrograde + the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Aquarius, and today I’m excited to welcome Jordan Catherine Pagán of Ostara Apothecary to the podcast! Jordan is a healer, medicine-maker, breathwork practitioner, and tarot reader in Brooklyn. She draws on her Yaqui heritage to connect with the powerful medicine of flowers and incorporate them into every one of her sessions. Together, Jordan and I discuss how she began her journey with plant medicine and tarot, the deep medicine she’s received from the Queen of Swords, and how she’s found inspiration from tarot to create some beautiful and potent plant medicine elixirs. I also offer some tarot medicine for the upcoming Mercury Retrograde and Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Aquarius for some deep personal and collective healing.
