#96 | The Fourth House | with Melanie Reinhart
Dive beneath the surface of your astrological chart with renowned astrologer Melanie Reinhart as we explore the mysterious fourth house - what she beautifully describes as "a place of gentle mysteries."The fourth house sits at the very bottom of our chart, marked by the Imum Coeli (IC) - "the bottom of the sky" - or what Melanie playfully calls the "I don't see" or "I can't see." This midnight point of our chart plunges down into our ancestry, our time in the womb, and perhaps back to our very conception. Unlike the visible achievements of our tenth house, this territory operates in darkness and silence - yet holds some of our deepest healing potential.We discuss Dane Rudhyar's fascinating description of this house as "to establish" - a place where experiences bind together, creating the energy matrix of our original home and root system. Through the fairy tale of the Three Feathers, we explore how fourth house work often requires descending through a trapdoor into our foundations, where what appears initially as a toad may transform into a princess when approached with simplicity and acceptance.Melanie offers profound insights about how we might project expectations onto our family of origin through the fourth house, and how reclaiming these projections could be key to feeling truly "at home" within ourselves. She shares a touching personal story of creating a small talisman bag during extensive travels that became her portable "home," illustrating how fourth house energy can be internalized rather than constantly sought in the external world.Perhaps most powerfully, we explore the fourth house as our "sacred ground," connecting this to the sacrum - the triangle bone at the base of our spine that anchors our physical stability. Just as the sacrum grounds our body, the fourth house grounds our sense of self and belonging in the world.Whether you're new to astrology or a seasoned chart explorer, this conversation will transform how you understand the deepest foundations of your chart and your life. Experience the fourth house as a source of profound medicine for your soul's journey.Melanie's Website Artwork: The Rescue by John William Waterhouse.Podcast Musician: Marlia CoeurPlease consider becoming a Patron to support the show!Go to OnTheSoulsTerms.com for more.

#95 | Cameron Allen | The Third House | Learning by Dancing in the Night World
Have you ever noticed how children learn through their bodies—running, jumping, playing—long before they absorb abstract concepts? This natural embodied learning reveals the true essence of the third house in astrology, traditionally associated with siblings and education but holding far deeper mysteries.Join astrologer and herbalist Cameron Allen as he unveils the lunar wisdom of this often-misunderstood astrological house. Unlike the broadcasting energy of the ninth house that transmits knowledge from on high, the third house is where wisdom becomes incarnated, where philosophy transforms into embodied experience. Here, in the darkness near the bottom of the chart where the Moon finds its joy, we discover how our earliest and most authentic learning happens.Cameron explores how the third house represents the dance of night consciousness—that polytheistic realm where multiple identities within us can emerge and express themselves. When daylight's monotheistic ordering principle fades, we access the morphic, dreaming wisdom that connects us to prophecy, divination, and direct knowing. This explains why profound insights often arrive in dreams or during those mysterious hours after midnight.The conversation ventures into fascinating territory: the connection between Chiron (whose name means "hand") and third house bodily communication; how ancestral lineages speak through third house energies; and why modern screen-based "communities" fail to provide the true relational field this house represents. Cameron shares personal experiences of accessing different identities through night-time ritual practice, revealing how stepping into third house consciousness allows hidden aspects of ourselves to emerge.Looking to deepen your astrological practice? Try stepping outside when the Sun is traveling through your third house at night and notice what emerges in that lunar environment. Your body might remember wisdom your mind has forgotten. Join us in Santa Fe this October for Living Astrologies, where this conversation continues in person. Although the conference is full, you can get on the waitlist and see what might happen.Artwork is Sandro Botticelli, Mary With the Child and Singing Angels (detail), 1477To learn more about Cameron and his work go here.Podcast Musician: Marlia CoeurPlease consider becoming a Patron to support the show!Go to OnTheSoulsTerms.com for more.

#94 | Hansel & Gretel | with Collette Davis
In this episode of On the Soul’s Terms, recorded under the olive trees of Epidavros, I’m joined by Collette Davis for a slow, winding exploration of Hansel and Gretel through the lens of the 3rd house.We sit with the archetypal threads of this beloved fairy tale—breadcrumb trails, dark forests, devouring mothers, and sibling bonds—and reflect on how they echo through the astrological terrain of early learning, memory, intuition, and the rational mind. The 3rd house becomes a space not just of communication, but of somatic knowing, lunar memory, and the stories we carry from childhood.Tender and layered, this episode meanders like a path through the woods—sometimes lit by the moon, sometimes lost in shadow. Join us for a mythic descent recorded live in the land of Asclepius, just days before entering the dreaming chambers.Podcast Musician: Marlia CoeurPlease consider becoming a Patron to support the show!Go to OnTheSoulsTerms.com for more.

#93 | The Third House | Siblings, Language, Early Environment
We leave behind the sensual landscape of the Second House and wander into the neighbourhoods of the Third — the realm of language, mimicry, siblings, and the looping rhythms of early life. In this episode, we explore how our voice is shaped by what we echo, the childhood accents we absorb, and the environments that teach us how to move, speak, and remember.From the myth of Echo to the sibling stories of Hermes and Apollo, Castor and Pollux, and even Cinderella, we reflect on how our earliest dynamics continue to ripple through our adult relationships. We touch on memory, mood, writing, gossip, vehicles, and the lunar rhythms of daily life — all woven together in the Third House’s tapestry.As always, astrology is our map, but myth, story, and experience fill in the terrain. Plus, a brief invitation to “untrain your parrot” — and begin listening for the deeper voice beneath the chatter.Speaking of... Untrain Your Parrot is a book by Elizabeth HamiltonThe Sibling Constellation by Brian Clark is also discussed.Podcast Musician: Marlia CoeurPlease consider becoming a Patron to support the show!Go to OnTheSoulsTerms.com for more.

#92 | The Handless Maiden | The Second House
In this episode of On the Soul’s Terms, we descend into the second house through the haunting and luminous fairy tale of The Handless Maiden. This story, from the Brothers Grimm and echoed in myths like Sedna’s from the Arctic, brings us into the realm of value, worth, the body, and the living vs. the dead.We explore what it means to be exchanged for gold, to lose one’s hands — the instruments of touch, feeling, and connection — and what it takes to grow them back. Through three acts, this tale guides us into the darker forests of the psyche, through numbered pears and silver hands, all the way to a forest hut where "Here All Dwell Free" is written above the door.Along the way, I reflect on themes of self-worth, distorted transactions, the tension between the second and eighth houses, and the Saturnian seven-year phases of healing and integration.Also included is the Russian variation, where instinct and love regrow the maiden’s hands, and a dive into the Sedna myth — offering a vision of deep healing below the surface.A rich journey through myth and astrology, and an invitation to check in on what you truly value — and what you may have unconsciously traded away.💫 If you enjoy the show, consider leaving a review or sharing it with someone who’d love this story too.Podcast Musician: Marlia CoeurPlease consider becoming a Patron to support the show!Go to OnTheSoulsTerms.com for more.
