Exploring Health & Wellbeing Through Medical Astrology with Kira Sutherland
In this Gemini Season podcast special, I spoke with Emily Kalcher of Emily Lunar Astrology to explore how astrology (and especially the duality of Gemini) can illuminate our mind–body medicine.
In This Conversation
- Your Astrological “Blueprint” for Health: I define medical astrology and walk you through the big health houses (1st, 6th, 8th & 12th) and how planets, signs and cusps map to our physical, acute and chronic systems.
- Deep-Dive into Duality & the Big Three: We both share how our Sun-Moon-Rising combos (including Emily’s IBD journey under the Gemini/Gemini stellium and Kira’s Aries-Sag-Pisces trio) inform both personal healing and teaching style.
- Crafting Lunar & Solar Essences: I reveal my ritual process (making water “charged” under specific moon phases or solar returns, stabilising with brandy, adding flower essences) to support energetic and emotional wellbeing.
- Chiron, Neurodiversity & the Wounded Healer: A rich conversation about Chiron’s role in physical and psychological healing—the myth of the wounded healer, Chiron in Taurus (body-value wounds), Chiron returns, and even new research on ADHD in women linked to Aries/Chiron placements.
-
Books, Ethics & Practical Tools: Recommendations from Nicholas Culpeper to Jane Ridder-Patrick’s Handbook of Medical Astrology, plus ethical boundaries around “diagnosis” vs. assessment and tips for building your own chart-based health ritual.
Whether you’re already using astrology in your health toolkit or simply curious about a fresh approach to natural medicine, this episode offers a compassionate, down-to-earth blend of science, soul and star-wisdom.
