232. The Matriarchy Is Already Here

In this episode, Britten shares the living transmission behind the phrase The Matriarchy Is Already Here. She explains where it came from, how it moved through her in real time, and begins to name what it actually means in the context of her teachings. Not as a future top-down system, but as something already moving from the bottom up, human to human, cycle by cycle, through the practice of staying with ourselves, protecting children, protecting life, and refusing to abandon the future. If you want to experience where this transmission first moved through her in real time, you can watch the original Instagram reel here. Britten also shares a deeply personal story from her 30th high school reunion, an unexpected encounter that became a real-time expression of everything she's been teaching. Through this story, she shows what it looks like to update into present time, stand with younger parts of yourself, and no longer let shame, old projections, or dominator personalities define your story.  This episode is a potent reflection on repair, self-loyalty, and the alchemy of becoming someone who cannot be rattled away from yourself.   Learn More: Britten invites listeners to join her and Matt in the 5th installment of Mystics Making Money: Have You Tried Making It Weirder? in May, a four part workshop series focused on branding as a practice of clarifying and expressing what you do.  We understand branding as a ritual process of updating yourself into present time so that what you share, build, and offer is no longer coming from inherited shame, past identity, or someone else's story about you. We're interested in helping you remove the lag between who you are becoming and how you are currently showing up. Here, branding becomes the expression of that alignment, not the goal.

In this episode, Britten is joined by Matt Bull for a rich conversation on branding, messaging, repetition, and the resistances that can arise when magical, creative people try to clarify what they do in the world. Together, they introduce their upcoming Mystics Making Money workshop, Have You Tried Making It Weirder?, and explore branding not as something flattening or corporate, but as a process of becoming more coherent, more recognizable, and more deeply aligned with your own magic. Along the way, Britten reflects on her own history with branding, from early agency days to the creation of Emergence Astrology, and the ways this process has helped her articulate and anchor what is most true in her work. Topics They Cover: Britten and Matt's shared history in advertising, branding, and creative work, and how that informs this collaboration Why branding can feel resistant or confining to artists, mystics, and intuitives How repetition and consistency function as powerful tools for helping people understand and remember your work Branding as a magical practice: sigils, taglines, visual identity, messaging, and the creation of a doorway into your world Britten's personal experiences with branding, including the creation of her logo and the emergence of Emergence Astrology What participants can expect inside Have You Tried Making It Weirder?, including positioning, visual identity, messaging, and interactive exercises At the heart of this conversation is the idea that branding does not have to mean becoming less yourself. In fact, the deeper invitation is the opposite: to get clearer about your you-ness, to commit to what is actually yours, and to let that clarity support how your work moves through the world. This episode is a thoughtful and energizing entry point into a workshop designed to help people get more honest, more potent, and yes, a little weirder, in how they share what they make.   About Matt Bull: Matt Bull is a Clio and Emmy-winning advertising creative director who was once called "an advertising folk hero (of sorts)" by Adweek. Over his 30 year career he has helped brand, launch, rebrand, and grow hundreds of businesses of all sizes. The boutique creative agency he founded is entering its 13th year of helping local and global brands alike break through the oversaturated marketing space with personality-driven and occasionally even outright weird creativity.

In this episode, Britten announces a new project she's been dreaming on since 2025: Scopes Unshamed. She shares the path that brought her back to horoscopes, from writing New Moon horoscopes for D Magazine and Patreon in the early years of her practice, to stepping away from forecasts as her work became more mystical, unshaming-focused, and chartless. Now, she feels herself moving back toward that end of the infinity loop, ready to bring horoscopes forward again through the lens of Emergence Astrology and all that her unshaming pedagogy has become. Britten reflects on what makes this approach distinct for her: not trying to define herself against what's already out there, but letting the work distinguish itself through how it feels and what it offers. She speaks to horoscopes as a support technology for living, something that can help people navigate their lives with more intimacy, agency, self-trust, self-compassion, and good humor. Rather than fixed meanings or predictions, Scopes Unshamed is rooted in questions, resonance, embodiment, and the complexity of real human experience. Learn More: Scopes Unshamed is Britten LaRue's return to monthly horoscopes—shared by Rising Sign and rooted in astrology as a support technology for time, rather than a prediction machine. Each month, these horoscopes work with the zodiac and current astrology to help you stay with what is, notice what's actually happening in your life, and recognize what is and isn't resonant in real time. Astrology here is held as a mystery tradition—something to be felt as much as understood—and as a space for self-honesty without self-judgment, where you can build a more living, emergent relationship with time.

In this episode, Britten takes you behind the scenes of her 2026 Magician's Table launch, sharing what it actually looked like to fill 60 spots and what she encountered along the way. She walks through the real dynamics of promotion, not just what she did, but what she bumped up against, and how she relates to promo as something she's inside of all the time, not just during a launch window.  She speaks candidly to those who already know how to promote but feel the gap between what they're doing and what they know is possible. This episode explores why promotion can feel tight, heavy, or "icky," and reframes it as an energetic and relational experience—one that can become creative, playful, and even something you miss when you're not in it.  You'll also hear Britten introduce a new 6-week Witch Sister Intensive, designed for people ready to move beyond surface-level strategy and into the root causes of fear, resistance, and contraction around visibility. She shares how this work opens doorways where you feel stuck, creates movement where there was none, and supports you in transforming promotion into something fun, magical, and deeply alive.    Learn More: The Witch Sister Intensive is a 6-week, one-on-one space for reorganizing your relationship to promotion. Especially if you can feel that you know how to promote, but something in you isn't able to do it in the way you want to. You want to go louder, more audacious, more magnetic. You want bigger results, and most of all you want it to feel fun, easeful, and liberating.  This is relational magic. You will have my deep attunement and focus for 6 weeks so you can put your promo dread behind you once and for all. This is a rare opportunity to come into my Witch Sister space for a shorter term, theme-focused experience that transforms your relationship to marketing and selling your brilliant, heart-led offers.   This is an intensive because it's intense to confront yourself so deeply. You do it because you love your work, and you want to show up to promote with the passion that you have to serve.  This is an intimate space between me, you, and your business. I'll be supporting you right at the edges you're moving through. If you are interested, please reach out to my team at [email protected] with the subject line: Witch Sister Intensive. In the email, include what excites you about the offer and when you'd like to get started.  There are only 3 spots for those ready to start in April. 3 spots to start in May. And 3 in August and September. This entire offer disappears April 15.    ++++   E M E R G E N C E  A S T R O L O G Y ⁠⁠https://brittenlarue.com/ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@brittenlarue Order Living Astrology Join my newsletter here Check out my new podcast CRYSTAL BALLERS on Spotify, Podbean, and Apple.   +++   Podcast art: Angela George.

In this conversation, Britten welcomes TMT 2025 alums Christine Gutierrez, Kate Eastridge, and Katrine Waugh to reflect on what it was like to ride the emotional waves of The Magician's Table through the lens of the Prince of Cups. Together, they share how they found the container, what they brought to practice, and what unfolded as they entered initiation weekend, navigated vulnerability, strengthened self-trust, and emerged with deeper confidence in their magic. This episode traces the arc of saying yes, being held, and carrying the medicine forward into the world.   Topics They Cover:  How each of them found The Magician's Table: from podcast serendipity to repeated returns to the sales page to the quiet build-up of the idea that they can be a part of this bigger thing What they brought to the container (mediumship, astrology, tarot) and how their practice evolved through consistent weekly readings and exchange The initiation weekend experience and what it felt like to enter a structured, intimate space that is designed to hold you The emotional rhythm of the container: nervousness, imposter feelings, surprise and delight, strengthening self-trust, and the feeling of time outside of time The power of structure and community: being witnessed, building integrity, honing skills, and learning to hold space for others  What it felt like to close the container and why they'd say yes again (and encourage others to honor the pull if they feel it) THE DOORS TO THE 2026 MAGICIAN'S TABLE ARE NOW OPEN!

Before she ever stepped onto a set, she was captivated by stories of reinvention and reckoning blended with the farcical rhythm and profound questions of an existential comedy.   Drawn to stories that bend time such as Groundhog Day and Palm Springs or the sudden presence of an omniscient voice narrating one's life in Stranger Than Fiction.  Kate seeks stories about awareness. About how one's perceptions might change when we shine a light on the cycle of what's happening right now.   Kate's original fascination with astrology and use of tarot as tools for creative writing and character development led her to explore how tools of divination to prompt reflection while laughing her way through her own hero's journey.    If you feel inspired to walk with her ... you can find Kate at kateeastridge.com  or @kate.eastridge on Instagram.     About Katrine Waugh: Katrine Waugh, she/her, is devoted to the consciousness of night, the liminal spaces which fertilize our waking moments.

In this episode, Britten LaRue is joined by TMT Alums Bee Phillips and Patrick Dommermuth to explore the lived difference between the Mystic and the Magician, not as fixed identities, but as two complementary ways of moving through desire, time, and co-creation. Together they tease out images that make the distinction felt, name how each archetype relates to will vs surrender, and reflect on how Britten's containers (Emergence Astrology and The Magician's Table) invite different kinds of intimacy, pressure, and self-discovery in community.   Topics They Cover: How Patrick and Bee found Britten's work including the push-pull of malefic medicine, attraction and aversion, and saying yes to both Emergence Astrology and The Magician's Table The felt difference between the Mystic and the Magician: surrender vs will, magnetism vs dynamism, receptivity vs concentrated desire Images that make the archetypes embodied: outer space and comet, heart and blood, air/fire vs earth/water, purification by water vs purification by flame Community as a mirror and medicine: being seen, restoring parts that once felt unsafe, and discovering yourself through others' witnessing Time as an archetypal experience: Mystic time as dissolving and nonlinear versus Magician time as intensified, Saturnian, and pressure-based Why The Magician's Table structure (timers, attendance, deadlines, constraint) can dissolve imposter syndrome and crystallize craft, while Emergence Astrology builds the inner ground and skill set   THE DOORS TO THE 2026 MAGICIAN'S TABLE ARE NOW OPEN!

In the episode, Britten LaRue is joined by TMT Alums Danielle Houser, Janessa Quinn, and Emily Pumm for an exploration of a paradoxical phrase: The Tower Can Also Be Soft. Together, they share how they found Britten's work and The Magician's Table, what it felt like inside the container, and how their offerings shifted through the experience - threading themes of choice, vulnerability, spiritual diversity, confidence, and the tenderness that can hold us through big transformation. Topics They Cover:  Finding Britten's work and coming into their Yes for The Magician's Table (including hesitation around logistics, money, timing, and identity) The paradox of a "soft tower," and how choosing participation can change the texture of transformation The container as a place of disarming vulnerability, mutual respect, and a kind of softness that made experimenting feel safe What they'd tell someone who feels unsure they belong, doesn't know how they'll make it work, or is afraid to use their voice THE DOORS TO THE 2026 MAGICIAN'S TABLE ARE NOW OPEN!

In this solo episode, Britten speaks directly to the 60 magicians coming into The Magician's Table Class of 2026, sharing a behind-the-scenes story of feeling wobbly under eclipse energy and asking for magical support. What unfolds is a cascade of omens, cards, ancestral messages, and a vivid vision of a white stork revealing a deeper meditation on Zero Aries, the Wheel of Fortune, and what it means to steward a dream that wants to live.  Through motherhood analogies, Saturn–Neptune reflections, and the Eight of Cups as living your refusal, Britten reframes Big Magic not as force or performance, but as care, attunement, and the willingness to feed what is hungry within you. She explores what it truly means to be magical: to ask, to be available, to take guidance seriously, and to let yourself be interrupted, mutated, astonished.  The Magician's Table, she explains, is not an expert space or an outcomes machine, but a living ritual container. A three-month field of coherence where overplanning falls away, comparative energy dissolves, and each Magician follows their own curriculum within deep community support.  If this space is calling you, Britten invites you to consider the core question at the heart of magic itself: Are you available?   +++   Learn More about The Magician's Table:  The Magician's Table is a 3-month container for personal growth, community connection, and practice growing one's tools as an intuitive and magical practitioner.

In this episode, Britten welcomes Bella O'Brien, Breezy Barcelo, and Sarah Kajani for a roundtable on the topic Big Magic Makes Big Change and what it actually means to go big for your magic. Each shares the threshold moment that brought them to The Magician's Table - the doubt, the tug, the resistance, the synchronicities - and how saying Yes marked a turning point. Together they explore devotion over performance, presence over palatability, and the slow dissolving of self-imposed limits. They reflect on how the container expanded their capacity for trust, vulnerability, reverence, and creative risk, and how the ripples continue long after the formal work ends.

In this episode, Britten LaRue is joined by Caroline Durlacher and Mellie Test for a conversation on staying with your magic when it's unclear, inspired by the Eight of Swords. Together they reflect on what it's like to be in a long creative process - where clarity doesn't always arrive on the timeline the mind wants - and how The Magician's Table can function as a container that supports devotion, experimentation, and self-recognition. They explore the tension between money as feedback and the ways it can distort our relationship to magic, while naming the relief and power of letting your practice be emergent: trusting transmission, honoring cave time, and creating without needing permission, justification, or proof.   Topics They Cover: Returning to The Magician's Table twice: resistance, refinement, and the intelligence of coming back Money as feedback vs. money as proof and how tying magic to material success can cloud clarity Devotion to process: luxuriating in the process, experimentation, and letting your work evolve moment to moment Cave time, invisibility, and staying with your magic during unclear or non-linear seasons Self-recognition as the true initiation and claiming you are magical without needing external validation   About Caroline Durlacher: Caroline Durlacher is a former literature & philosophy PhD candidate turned Emergent Business mentor for divergent thinkers & creative visionaries.
