In this liminal, nonlinear ride, Justine and Scarlett dive into the wild convergence of solar eclipse, fall equinox, Navarātri, and even viral rapture predictions. With their signature mix of myth, astrology, and cultural side-eye, they explore what it means to live at the thresholds — between inhale and exhale, day and night, masculine and feminine, the ultimate and the relative.
The conversation winds through:
- The rapture hype of Sept 23, 2025 (and why thresholds matter more than doomsday dates).
- A verse from the Vijñāna Bhairava Tantra: “the threshold is already the entrance” — what it means to be “already in” once you stand in the crack between worlds.
- Durga as guardian of the threshold, riding her tiger between bliss-ball nonduality and the hard fact of buses that will still run you over.
- A Navarātri walk-through: nine nights of goddess forms mapped to planets and polyvagal states, from Moon-rooted safety to Rahu’s shadow and Ketu’s transcendence.
- The Triple Goddess cycle through the guṇas: Durga burns through tamas, Lakṣmī channels rajas, Sarasvatī refines into sattva.
- Pop culture bridges: Deltron 3030 and Blondie’s Rapture on the playlist, white-on-white sneaker cult aesthetics as accidental fashion pick, movie nods from Before Sunrise/After Sunset to Kill Bill.
Through humor, myth, and a lot of “we are literally in-between right now,” this episode becomes a meditation on liminality itself: the crack where transformation happens.
