Is My Aura On Straight?

In this episode of 'Is My Aura On Straight?', host Aycee Brown discusses the frustrating "boring middle" of Mercury and Venus retrogrades, between revelation and resolution when Mars in Leo pushes for answers but retrogrades call for slowing down to see the big picture and review details. Aycee argues that liminal space is not a waiting room, because spiritual momentum is forming. She cautions that forcing outcomes early can produce "almost" results and gives listeners three pieces of advice: (1) to stay present, (2) avoid over-interpreting silence or delays, and (3) care for themselves through routines, gratitude, and noticing patterns that emerge when things are quiet. She confirms that clarity will return after the retrogrades and their shadow periods, and shares her reflections from reading Crowds and Power by Elias Canetti. Aycee concludes this episode by urging listeners to prepare for coming collective shifts by thinking independently, world-building around personal values, and focusing on the journey rather than the destination.   November 15th Live Workshop - 2027: What Spirit Is Saying About The Year Ahead December 20th Live Workshop - The Life You Want Is Going To Require You   Click To Join Magical Mutha Fucking Mondays To work with me, hire me, or sponsor the podcast, please reach out to [email protected] My Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ayceebrown/ My TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@ayceebrown

In this episode of 'Is My Aura On Straight?', host Aycee Brown and author Joy Woodward discuss numerology's influence on house and apartment numbers, with one describing a pattern of frequent breakups or moves in "6" units and contrasting experiences in a "1" home that supported entrepreneurship but not romance. Aycee interviews Joy Woodward, a numerologist who explains each number's "high and low" expressions (e.g., 6 as love with marriage/divorce duality; 3 as creative party energy; 5 as busy, chaotic movement; 7 as spiritual but potentially reclusive; 8 as power-focused with possible unanticipated expenses; 9 as either brief stays or lifelong residence) and advises that compatibility depends on an individual chart, though vibrations can be shifted by adding a number near the doorway. They debate personal-year timing (January 1 vs birthday-to-birthday) but agree that personal year is most useful. Aycee and Joy also outline favorable personal days for launches and weddings, interpret 2026–2028 universal themes (1, 11/2, 3), and suggest aligning life path, soul, and destiny numbers as a "cosmic triangle."   November 15th Live Workshop - 2027: What Spirit Is Saying About The Year Ahead December 20th Live Workshop - The Life You Want Is Going To Require You   Purchase Joy's book Your Destiny is in Your Numbers: Numerology to Awaken, Transform, and Inspire Your Life HERE Connect with Joy at joyofnumerology.com or at @joyfornumerology on Instagram, Facebook, and X.

In this episode of 'Is My Aura On Straight?', host Aycee Brown opens with astrology updates on Venus retrograde in Scorpio and Pluto stationing direct in Aquarius. She describes a collective reckoning with buried desires, truth-telling, and removing performative versions of self at the center. Then, she briefly maps the transit themes for each rising sign's house focus because introduces her special guest. Aycee interviews award-winning author Deesha Philyaw and highlights her second novel, The True Confessions of First Lady Freeman, which centers on megachurch "first lady" culture, performance, and Black women's sexual agency. In their conversation, Deesha recounts her early church experiences, recognizing women as the church's foundation, encountering a woman pastor/seer, and questioning doctrines like hell and sexual double standards. She details her experiences with fatherlessness patterns, emotional abuse red flags, and growing up in the church as a woman. Deesha also describes how she left the left church after multiple family deaths, then shed religious and relational performances through decades of divorce, therapy, and boundary-setting. As a writer, she reflects on how creative freedom helped her career accelerate around her 2020 debut during the pandemic. Deesha re-defines freedom as honesty and letting people not like her, then ends the conversation by exploring writing as ancestral purpose and an evolving spiritual practice, beyond evangelical Christian guilt. Aycee closes this episode by urging listeners, especially those deconstructing religion, to read Deesha's new book and revisit The Secret Lives of Church Ladies.   Purchase Deesha's newest book The True Confessions of First Lady Freeman HERE Connect with Deesha at deeshaphilyaw.com or at @deeshaphilyaw on Instagram, Threads, Bluesky and X.   Click To Join Magical Mutha Fucking Mondays To work with me, hire me, or sponsor the podcast, please reach out to [email protected] My Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ayceebrown/ My TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@ayceebrown

In this episode of 'Is My Aura On Straight?', host Aycee Brown explores how astrology interacts with the Law of Assumption and manifestation. She uses the October 10th New Moon in Libra opposing Saturn as an example that intentions require effort, patience, and engaging with the "boring middle" because manifestation is more than rituals you see on social media. Aycee describes how Jupiter in Leo and Venus retrograde brings up old patterns around money, worth, intimacy, and wounds that can distort manifestation. Brown introduces the Lots of Fortune and Spirit: Fortune reflects material conditions and the "hand you were dealt," while Spirit reflects will and what you do about it. She outlines the Lot of Fortune by sign, to help listeners understand where where prosperity tends to come from based on their chart. Aycee argues that astrology and manifestation don't contradict. Instead, astrology describes timing/conditions ("weather"), manifestation is what you plant, and free will is how you play the cards without blaming transits or claiming total control.   Click To Join Magical Mutha Fucking Mondays To work with me, hire me, or sponsor the podcast, please reach out to [email protected] My Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ayceebrown/ My TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@ayceebrown

In this episode of 'Is My Aura On Straight?', host Aycee Brown previews Venus in Scorpio as it enters retrograde from October 3 through November 15. She describes this transit as a six-week review with intimacy, trust, power dynamics, shared resources, debt, inheritance, and relationship/financial patterns all resurfacing for re-examination. Aycee advises listeners to avoid new relationships and major financial commitments. Instead, use this Venus in Scorpio period to close loops, with special attention on the full-moon-to-new-moon in-between phase with the Sun in Libra. Aycee then breaks down these themesvby life path numbers 1–9 and master numbers 11/22/33. She also explains the IC (Imum Coeli) as the private, family-of-origin inheritance opposite the Midheaven, outlining how IC signs reflect home "rules," wounds, and survival strategies. Aycee recommends that viewers identify their IC, check the fourth house and planets there, and learn to "play the cards" they were dealt.

In this episode of 'Is My Aura On Straight?', host Aycee Brown opens with reflections on the September 22nd equinox, the shift from Virgo to Libra season's focus on relationships and lineage, and an upcoming Aries full moon. She highlights clearer relationship communication and a "thin veil" period with ancestors close before introducing her guest. Aycee interviews two-time Emmy-winning producer, writer, and Black and Published host Nikesha Elise Williams about ancestry, Black women's survival, and her novel The Seven Daughters of Dupree, which spans seven generations from enslaved ancestors in Alabama to a teen in 1995 seeking her father amid secrecy, grief, and what mothers couldn't say to daughters. Nikesha discusses Chicago's lessons on community, her mother's perseverance, the emotional cost of compartmentalizing as a TV news producer and a pivotal police-shooting video that made her stop watching such footage, leading to a transition from news to self-publishing and building an imprint. Nikesha also explains how she sees land as memory, her channel-like writing practices, and how her 2023 divorce coincided with rapid career breakthroughs including an agent offer, a grant, and a major book deal.   Purchase Nikesha's Book The Seven Daughters of Dupree HERE Connect with Nikesha at newwrites.com or at @nikesha_elise on Instagram, Threads, TikTok and Facebook.   Click To Join Magical Mutha Fucking Mondays To work with me, hire me, or sponsor the podcast, please reach out to [email protected] My Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ayceebrown/ My TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@ayceebrown

In this episode of 'Is My Aura On Straight?', host Aycee Brown says Virgo season is a "sorting phase" shifting from identifying patterns to asking "which feelings are mine?" She connects heightened dreams, specificity in readings, and ancestral contact to the Neptune sextile Pluto transit and a "thin veil," noting September can intensify these sensations. She describes inherited grief showing up as depression without an obvious cause, outsized anger, or emotional numbness, and explains unprocessed losses in a family line can be stored and passed down, often through women who had to be "strong." Aycee outlines where grief may surface by rising sign and by human design type, and suggests practices to release it: letting tears and feelings move through the body, lighting a candle, speaking to a spirit team, seeking therapy that can consider "is that even yours," and making September a time to reevaluate life choices, mourn unmet promises, and cultivate joy while psychic-development classes are forthcoming.   Click To Join Magical Mutha Fucking Mondays To work with me, hire me, or sponsor the podcast, please reach out to [email protected] My Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ayceebrown/ My TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@ayceebrown

In this episode of 'Is My Aura On Straight?', host Aycee Brown interviews Dr. Sarah L. Webb. Sarah is the founder of Colorism Healing and author of  Colorism: The Politics of Skin Tone and How We Get Free. Before getting into their conversation, Aycee opens with an energy check on the first new moon after eclipse season in Virgo, emphasizing clear intentions now that Neptune has moved from Pisces to Aries. Dr. Sarah L. Webb explains colorism as a global, relative phenomenon that operates across individual, relationship, institutional, and societal levels, shaping policing, education, medicine, and family dynamics through language, praise, scapegoating, and even bleaching practices. Aycee and Dr. Sarah L. Webb also discuss psychological wounding, "preference" as learned conditioning, denial and "reverse colorism" arguments, social media's role, and steps toward healing through acknowledgment, self-reflection, and vulnerable conversations.   Purchase Dr. Sarah L.

In this episode of 'Is My Aura On Straight?', host Aycee Brown discusses lingering partial lunar eclipse effects (such as wild dreams, waking at 3 AM, or resurfacing memories) and suggests using birth charts and Claire Gallagher's book Body Astrology: A Cosmic Guide to Health, Healing, and Harnessing the Power of the Planets to understand how transits may affect your body. Aycee notes a Jupiter trine Saturn (Leo/Aries at 13 degrees) that brings rare "build" energy after months of clearing, but she cautions listeners to examine whose blueprint you're building from. With the waning/dark moon before the Virgo new moon on Sept 10th, Aycee emphasizes the thin-veil and introduces a five-week arc called "The Blood Remembers" to explore inherited survival strategies like hustle, silence, and vigilance to teach listeners how you can identify whose pattern you're carrying. She connects these themes to Human Design aura types, then urges listeners to be aware of current dangers and privilege differences for Black people. Aycee also recommends spiritual hygiene, grounding, limiting news, and creating an ancestral space/altar to ask questions and track subtle signs.   Click To Join Magical Mutha Fucking Mondays To work with me, hire me, or sponsor the podcast, please reach out to [email protected] My Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ayceebrown/ My TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@ayceebrown
