TAP is centered around healing methods, psychological insights, mystery, and the forgotten languages of the soul. My name is Mannah, and my aim here is not necessarily that my questions are answered exactly… but to open them. To let the questions breathe in that inner place where Wholeness can be found. I do this by inviting thought leaders, authors, and healers of our time into honest conversation with me, not holding back my own longings and fears. We are in this together!

I started TAP as a way to speak freely of my own experience and my own interest in different books and philosophies (I was in fact recovering from having done many interviews — in my native language, that is. TAP is the only podcast I've released in English). Only a few months in… I realized… I cannot NOT interview… it feels like part of my true nature. This is when TAP evolved into more of a conversational magazine with thought leaders, healers, and authors of our time.

Therapeutic Astrology is not just a blend of healing practices. It is the understanding that trauma therapy and the wisdom of the stars share a common root, cover the same ground, and together can open the hidden landscapes of the psyche. Both are weaker without the other. My guests come from a variety of backgrounds, but somehow their work inspires me and is related to what I work for in this lifetime.

We live in a time of great transition, and I believe we need all wisdom traditions and lived experiences to help our world and our minds heal.

Astrology, in particular, has long been pushed to the margins, often treated as taboo or dismissed as superstition. But to me, astrology is about uncovering the hidden patterns that shape our lives, so we can work with them consciously — just as we do in many trauma and psychotherapies. 

Having the word ASTROLOGY in the name of my podcast is a statement of integrity, and of honoring symbolic ways of knowing. Not all episodes are about astrology, but when I am present, it is always, in some way, part of the conversation.

With TAP, I want to honor astrology, therapy, and the many paths of healing as sacred forces we can tap into, to be guided through existence.

Let's TAP in and find a place to call Whole.

Therapeutic Astrology Podcast

"Once we start to think of the mind as itself consisting of a kind of "space", which other fields of influence can shape, distort, or form pathways within, there are many obvious parallels with the physics of the cosmos." Quote from our guest today Phil Mollon, who is currently with this new book: "The Physics of the Mind – New Perspectives for Psychotherapists, Healers and Seekers", 2026, by Karnac Books. Phil Mollon, PhD, is a psychoanalyst, clinical psychologist, and energy psychotherapist. He is well-known as a writer and speaker on topics including shame, trauma, dissociation, self-psychology, and EMDR – and has pioneered the development of
 psychoanalytic energy psychotherapy. 
 
TAP in as we speak about:
 
 • How the human mind is a fractal of cosmos
 • Quantum in the dreamworld
 • Therapy and superposition
 • The unified field is a self-organizing living system
 • How information is stored holographically and the structure of the brain follows a holographic pattern and minds are organs for dealing with information!
 • The physics is as usual a little beyond my understanding (Mannah here) so here is a qoute from the book to help: "The mind and brain display quantum qualities. Although the brain influences consciousness, there is also a way in which consciousness selects brain states in both self and other." This is when we speak of the primacy of consciousness
 • What does it imply that we are plasma?
 • The concept of mental radio
 • In closing Phil shares something to reflect on; the parallel of the speed of light and of thoughts (Here is a quote from pga 62 that underlines that: "A computer with a slower processor can do most of the same tasks as a faster processor, just more slowly. Many educational systems fail to recognise neurodiversity and the relativity of different brains and modes of learning (Forchelli et al., 2022). Moreover, there can be advantages in slowing the presentation of information right down, as in meditation. The equation indicates that as the movement of conscious focus slows towards a point, intelligence expands towards infinity!")
 
I hope you were inspired!!

#121 - Phil Mollon - The Physics of the Mind – New Perspectives for Psychotherapists, Healers and Seekers

"Life is beginning to shift. There is a momentum growing. Our understanding of biology, our expectations about health, our priorities in life are changing. We expect more now. The same old ways, the same old answers from science regarding health, no longer satisfy." (From Dr. Catherine Clinton's upcoming book, OPTIMIZE, pre-order possible)
 
You will be so smart after listening to this interview, where we explore the invisible forces that shape our wellness and the science of unlocking the body's healing power through quantum biology. My guest, Dr. Catherine Clinton, author of "Optimize: A 7-Step Plan to Health and Longevity through Quantum Biology", helps us understand that "we don't end at the barriers of our skin," reminding us that we are intimately linked to each other and the world around us.
 
We talk about:
 -How viewing the body as an energetic system expands our approach to healing
 
-The powerful role of water, that she calls the backdrop of everything
 
-Electrolytes that help hydrate the body
 
-Not to get caught up in the latest health trend, but to remember the internal conductor of our symphony- our consciousness
 
-How mitochondria are the body's communication hubs, responding to our thoughts, emotions, and environment, and sending out it's own signals
 
-The science of light within and around us—how our cells communicate through light and how ancient cultures honored this relationship
 
-The emerging field of psychoneuroimmunology, linking mind, body, and immunity
 
AND MUCH MORE
 
again- you will be so smart after this one.

MUST-HEAR episode where I pull out as much knowledge and insight as possible from historian, author, and tarot-deck creator Travis McHenry.
 
Tap in as we talk about his new book (and a bit more) "An Occult Guide to" the Tarot from Rockpool Publishing.
 
Here are some of the themes we explore:
 
– The difference between occult tarot and other forms

– How the real and spiritual origins of tarot cards have been obscured
 
– The Tree of Life
 
– How to ask a good question for the tarot cards
 
– Female empowerment in the cards
 
 – The tarot is not from Egypt—however, there are Egyptian elements

#119 - Travis McHenry - An Occult Guide to the Tarot - Finding the Meaning of the Tarot

Special episode with natural philosopher and cosmic technologist Alex Reuter. Alex is the creator of STARFIELDS, an innovative astrology app with a deeper vision. It is a newer initiative, so you can influence what it develops into by sending Alex your thoughts about it by writing him here: https://starfields.app/contact 
 
Alex is so excited about Astrology and how it has changed his life. In this episode we talk about his motivation behind the project, his hopes for how technology can support rather than replace human connection, and his response when I insinuate that the automatization of astrology is a little scary!
 
Alex shares how astrology apps can truly complement our lives — and how his work with STARFIELDS aims to help people discover their soul's purpose in this lifetime.
 
An exciting conversation about coding, consciousness, and the cosmic map within us all!!

#118 - Alex Reuter - Can Software Read Your Soul? - The Astrology App STARFIELDS

Consciousness can be experienced in many diverse ways — such as the
 normal waking state, REM dreaming, states brought on by psychedelics, states of
 being under light anaesthetic etc. How is psychosis different from other states? And how is the sense of self experienced during psychosis?
 Today's guest: Shauna Winram is a PhD candidate in the School of Philosophy,
 Australian National University, I am so glad that she shares her research and her personal perspectives with us!
 

 TAP in to this fascinating conversation about:
 - How individuals may or may not realise they're in a different reality during
 psychosis.
 - How the mental-health system often fails people through lack of therapeutic
 support, stigma, and disempowerment.
 - How understanding that psychosis is part of the diversity of human experience
 can help reduce stigmatising these experiences
 - Shauna Winram's own lived experience of psychosis
 - Why we shouldn't romanticise these states — but need to ensure that people are
 helped and treated properly
 - Balancing ✨spirit and matter✨
 - What are global states of consciousness? ...and more!

#117 - Shauna Winram - Consciousness and the Phenomenology of Psychosis

Kaedrich Olsen is a seasoned Paranormal Arts Mentor, and in this episode he shares about Sacred Masculinity and how to relate to the modern world through inspiration from Norse mysticism.
 
A small note from me: I trusted my microphone to be on, but it didn't connect to my computer for some reason, so my audio is less fortunate — I hope you can flow with it!!
 
Tap in to hear some juicy parts about how Kaedrich has been studying Norse mythology, mysticism, and the old belief systems since his teenage years. He discovered the runes and even translated the Poetic Edda himself to understand the Old Norse mindset. The Norse people lived with spirituality as an everyday part of life — what we call the supernatural was simply the invisible part of nature.
 
TAP in as we dive into the topic of the sacred masculine and:
 
-The mature warrior is calm, self-contained, and protects out of love for what's behind him — family, home, community.
 – The sovereign archetype, or sacred king, holds vision, builds alliances, and uplifts others rather than hoarding power.
 – In Old Norse stories, the best rulers were called "Ring Breakers" and "Haters of Gold" because they gave away wealth to strengthen their people.
 – Not just warriores, but the craftsman, the magician, the sage 
 – Take individual responsibility and choose what truly makes sense to you instead of following the collective mindset
 – The current turmoil in the world is like a collective shadow surfacing, calling us to evolve
 – Loki, the Norse trickster, stirs things up and creates discomfort, but when the dust settles, everyone is better off!!
 – I also get his take on the Vikings tv-series- he in stead recommends "The North Man" and "The Last Kingdom" and shares that Ragnar Lothbrok is "sort of like a King Arthur figure," likely an "amalgam."

#116 - Kaedrich Olsen- Sacred Masculinity & Norse Archetypes Beyond the Warrior

Do you know that tension between your imagined life and the "real" one? and at this time do you feel the systems breakdown and the potential "heroes" rising? In this episode, astrologer, writer, and podcaster Adam Sommer helps me tap into the Saturn–Neptune conjunction — a 36-year cycle, yet they have not met in Aries since year 1703. I share my most recent story of feeling disillusioned or we could say that an authority "gave up on me", and that could fit the Saturn-Neptune as well.
 
TAP IN with us as we look at how to avoid its shadow expressions such as victimization martyrdom and escapism, which could take us over, when what goes on just seems too void of purpose.
 
Adam reflects on historic turning points that relates to this transit and how this rare alignment invites us to build new structures for collective dreams - and Aries is the sign of THE SPARK OF LIFE. There's the disenchantment, the necessary confrontation and then there's all the possibilities!! 
 
Stay with LOVE, stay with FORGIVENESS, and REMEMBER — appearances aren't always the TRUE FACT. That's how I make peace with being unexpectedly kicked out of therapy school (when I am done being angry) - and everything else that's going on that seems random at times. In astrology of course there are many transits happening, but I like just tuning sometimes to some particular background energy (we mentions others too), like we do in this chapter, and so I hope you enjoy it and get some helpful reflections for your own context and situations in daily life.

#115 - Adam Sommer - The Beginning of a New Era - Saturn - Neptune Conjunct at 0 Aries

WELCOME to this conversation with translator and esoteric researcher Yury Pankratov, who has translated "The Encyclopedia of Occultism" by the early 20th-century Russian occultist and Martinist teacher Grigori Mebes.
 
Yury's own journey went from computer engineering in Russia to the hidden traditions of Western esotericism and the rediscovery of Russian Martinism – a spiritual current rooted in the teachings of Martinez de Pasqually, Louis-Claude de Saint-Martin, and Papus.
 
TAP in with us as we talk about:
 
 – The rise of Russian Martinism and the soul's fall and reintegration
 

 – Occultism is a training of thought 
 

 – Mebes' model of Archetype, Man, and Nature
 

 – The astral plane as a bridge between spirit and matter
 

 – The mystery of Egregores – collective fields of consciousness that shape, heal, and influence human life
 

 – The creative polarity of manifestation expressed through Yod-Heh-Vav-Heh
 

 – How the Tarot serves as a initiatory alphabet 
 

 – The three stages of initiation – physical, astral, and archetypal – and the meaning of inner alchemy
 

 – What it means to make gold by first having gold
 

 – Yury's own practice of astrological theurgy through Orphic hymns and planetary communion
 

 – Reflections on Mebes' astrology, the question of free will versus fate
 

 – Mebes' later life and the happenings due to the Russian Revolution
 

 Thank you so much for being with us!!

#114 - Yury Pankratov - The Encyclopedia of Occultism by G.O. Mebes

"The Book of Thoth inspires students to progress from foundational knowledge of Magick and Mysticism to a deeper engagement with the writings of Aleister Crowley and other luminaries".... "Step onto the sacred path mapped by the Book of Thoth—a gateway to spiritual mastery and cosmic understanding. Whether you're an aspirant seeking the wisdom of the A∴A∴ or a student of esoteric traditions, this profound manual offers the Keys to navigate the Map of the Universe." - (Direct quotation from by Paul Hughes-Barlow)
 
Welcome to an episode that goes behind the new book "THE SECRET OF THE THOTH TAROT The Origins of Aleister Crowley's Book of Thoth" by Paul Hughes-Barlow published on Aeon Books. 
 
TAP in as we speak about some background story of Aleister Crowley and also topics like:
 
-Pauls process with writing the book (that was in fact channelled)
 
-Crowley's obsession with Tarot 
 
 -Eliphas Levi
 
 -The number of Mercury and Christ
 
 -The promise to have contact with the Hidden Masters
 
 -Freemasonry 
 
 -Immanuel Kant, German philosopher, as influencing Crowley's ethic
 
 -Crowley stayed Christian
 
-To hide your light under a bushel
 
-What all the secrecy is about!!
 
-The four levels on the Qabalistic Tree of Life
 
 -Mercury above and below the Abyss
 
 -The book of Lies
 
 -Both Carl Jung (1875–1961) and Aleister Crowley (1875–1947) were exact contemporaries, born in the same year. Each developed a radical system engaging with the unconscious, symbols, myth, and spirituality outside orthodox religion
 
 -I love how Paul uses Tarot therapeutically — it reflects the very essence of TAP and of a place to find Whole- What might look like two different paths, therapy and Tarot/Astrology, actually converge in one shared practice - or at least parallel practices within one healing field
 
-Initiations and the nigredo (darkness) necessary before renewal
 
-Fatalistic divination - or something more useful
 
-Thoth is the God of magic
 
-Aleister Crowley stands as one of the most disputed figures in modern Western esotericism, and our conversation concludes on that note—yet Paul Hughes-Barlow offers a perspective that reframes the common judgments

#113 - Paul Hughes-Barlow - The Secret of the Thoth Tarot - The Origins of Aleister Crowley's Book of Thoth

"Every single person has a deep storehouse of mysterious Yin, rife with potential richness, meaningful innovation, and the terrifying unknown. When one knows how to walk in a Yin way, they orient
 themselves to the fabric of reality. This is why one who navigates life in a Yin way is masterful, because they work with the current of the cosmos and they feel the contextual web of possibility."
 
A quote from the book "Yin Mysticism and the vesica Piscis" by my guest today, Brynja Magnussen. Inspiring and beautiful book.
 
Brynja Magnussen is an artist in the visionary and psychedelic genres and an author of archetypal and energetic reference books. In this episode we dive into Yin Mysticism and the mind's hidden currents. TAP IN as we speak about themes such as:
 
-Hypnosis & Yin: "Hypnosis holds a special role in the modalities of Yin because it directly approaches the Yin subconscious from a wakeful YANG state."
 
-A world short on Yin: "The subjugation of and separation from YIN over millennia is bound to begin manifesting in neuropathology." 
 
-ADHD & unchecked YANG paradigm
 
-Separation as mystical-mundane. Why the most profound transformations leave you alone afterward
 
-Seasonal depression and what one could do about it
 -Astrology !! As we speak about modern life over-privileges analytical, fragmentary, left-hemisphere styles— a Yang tendency—at the expense of contextual, embodied, relational, integrated, holististic form of knowing. Eclipse seasons (literal alignments, shadow and light) are a good time to rebalance toward Yin qualities such as: recovering, attunement, dark unknown. 
Thank you for tapping in today
