018: Astrological Polarities - Virgo and Pisces

WitchFoot Podcast

May 3 2022 • 1 hr 33 mins

Virgo and Pisces...the Virgin and the Fish That Don't Give a Fuck (slash give all the fucks)...welcome to Divinity!

The Basics: Virgo is a mutable earth sign, ruled by Mercury and traditionally at home in the sixth house. Pisces is a mutable water sign, ruled by Jupiter and most at home in the 12th house.

The Pisces energy is indeed strong with Johnny Cash and Kurt Cobain...RIP you legendary fishes.

It's important to give ourselves grace and laugh at ourselves. We think John Goodman's character Walter in The Big Lebowski is a Virgo run wild - enjoy his antics!

And speaking of The Big Lebowski, we're not the only ones who see The Dude's Pisces energy! If you love the film and want to immerse yourself in the divinity polarity even more, we recommend The Dude and the Zen Master.

Pisces Mitch Hedberg embodies that divinity vibe in comedy form. Another artist gone too soon, but you can still enjoy the laughs he gave us. We also talked about Mercury ruling Virgo, and Mercury in Virgo or Pisces having a particularly irreverent sense of humor. We found this article on debilitated planets, which includes Mercury in Pisces (opposite its rulership) and sheds more light on the clown in all of them.

With all of that in mind, enjoy the hilarity of Mercury on the divinity polarity:
- Bo Burnham
- Jenny Slate + Pete Holmes (how did we forget Pete?!)
- Trevor Moore (RIP whitest kid)
- Eddie Murphy
- Bernie Mac (RIP king of comedy)
- Steve Martin
- John Mulaney

And a Dan Cummins bit because we talk about his Taurus Mercury so much. (Even more Cummins, why not?)

Carolus Linnaeus (a white guy! shocking!) introduced animal taxonomy, and Wendi isn't even close to the only one who lives in a world where bats are birds.
