Anastasia Ryzhkova Podcast

Trigger Warning! Some of the themes in this episode might be triggering. Listen with your own discernment.  This has been the hardest podcast to record, and it speaks for itself. The title can be a little bit jarring to some, but that's the point. I hope to disperse the taboo around the word "suicide". If we learn to talk about it, I believe we can prevent tragedies, heal people, and ultimately heal the world. I hope you enjoy this show.  Suicide Hotlines and Recources:  International for all Countries: https://blog.opencounseling.com/suicide-hotlines/ New Zealand (Lifeline Aotearoa): 0800 543 354

In the podcast episode, Anastasia examines the recent protest in a London Art gallery -  purpose and consequences. The protest was instigated by members of the “Just Stop Oil” group. “Just Stop Oil” is an organisation aimed at saving the environment from Climate Change.

Suicidal Ideation is a subject of taboo, yet it is a silent pandemic that kills nearly a million people a day worldwide. When we make a subject taboo, we make it difficult for people to reach out and open up in times of need. In this episode, we open the door to this conversation.

Well, this is it—the first episode of the "journals" series. Here is the story that I've been terrified to talk about, but I am all about stepping into my fears now. I spill the tea about the first couple of years of my awakening (spiritual awakening, not the socio-political one). Stay tuned for the next episodes to find out what happens next ...

Ayahuasca, Primordial Myth, and What is Reality? 

How your emotional state affects you and other people, "the monster" is in all of us, and how not to suppress your feelings. 

I've decided to do things differently from now on. Instead of preparing for days, doing research, and writing the script, I thought I should turn on my microphone and talk. Yep, just me and the microphone. All by ourselves. Just me and the mic, or should I say, the mic and I. In this rant, I talk about the benefits of living alone, quitting coffee, and the audacity of people on the Internet. It's very intimate and very fun. Tune in and enjoy. 

Jupiter and Neptune are about to meet in the sky and rain on us with luck and prosperity? Or, are they? What does the conjunction mean for us mere mortals? Find out in this episode what I've discovered so far about the two archetypes and their upcoming alignment.  I don’t believe that we can predict the future by looking at the stars. But I believe we can familiarise ourselves with the archetypes before they manifest. It’s like preparing for a test. You’d want to have an idea of what your will face, but you wouldn’t be able to predict exactly what would be on a test. Another way to look at archetypes is to familiarise ourselves with the mythology of the planets. Joseph Campbell spoke about myth in this way, “ symbols of mythology are not manufactured; they cannot be ordered, invented or permanently surpassed. They are spontaneous productions of the psyche, and each bears within it, undamaged, the germ power of its source.” In other words, the myth lives and thrives within all of us collectively and through as

This is a story about Elizabeth Holmes, Theranos, and what astrological gods played a key role in this deception tale. In this solo episode, I look at the astrology of Theranos, briefly explore the synastry between Elizabeth Holmes and Steve Jobs, and dive into the archetype of Neptune, Dionysus, and insanity.  Elizabeth Holmes has her Sun sign in Aquarius, Saturn in Scorpio. Still, Neptune and Jupiter have inspired some of the most interesting moments in her life and the fate of Theranos.  I hope you find some treasures in this for yourself, but for now, here are some timestamps:  1:11 min - What happened with Theranos, and who is Elizabeth Holmes 7:34 min - Elizabeth Holmes, Steve Jobs, and Aquarius  18:10 min - Theranos, Neptune, and Pisces  23:50 min - The Moon, medical astrology, and blood serums  25:42 min - Saturn, "the iron sisters", and Jupiter  28:48 min - Neptune, Dionysus, and the mythos  Where to find me: IG @anastasiaryzhh  website - anaryzh.com   

The 7 Hermetic Principles originated from a branch of philosophy called Hermeticism that emerged in around 1st century A.D.  Hermeticism comes from the name Hermes Trismegistus, the mysterious teacher and wise philosopher who was believed to be the reincarnation of both Thoth, an Egyptian god of wisdom and writing and Mercury, the Greek god who rules the realms of the mind. We don’t actually know if Hermes existed. Still, his teachings remained and were passed on through word of mouth until the 20th century when the 7 Principles were recorded into a book called “Kybalion”. Who wrote the “Kybalion” is also unknown. It was published under the ominous name “the Three Initiates”. With so much uncertainty around the 7 Principles, it is easy to dismiss them as fiction or a reminiscence of some ancient cult, but it’s hard to ignore that some of these rings are a little bit true. Maybe that’s why they are sometimes called the 7 Universal Laws. At least to me. TimeStamps 00:00 min on human perspective 00:57 min the Do

In this episode, I explore this question, “Why would anyone want to get an Astrology reading at all?” I think the simple answer is curiosity. Curiosity about the future, curiosity about the past, curiosity about the mystical, esoteric and etherial parts of life. Is this curiosity driven by something deeper in the unconscious? Something akin to consciousness evolution not just within an individual but within the collective.    TimeStamps:   00:00 min Introduction  01:50 min The future direction of the podcast  05:02 min Personal story about how I got introduced to divination  07:32 min On fortune telling  08:26 min Ancient Mesopotamia (ancient kings, predictions, and some history of astrology) 11:15 min Why do we want to know the future  13:06 min The psyche and the unconscious  13:41 min Ancestral Trauma  14:50 min Self - actualisation through astrology  16:22 min Cosmos as the mirror to our inner reality  16:52 min Myth and stories as mirrors to our souls  20:25 min Real people explaining how astrology helpe

Post a period of being benched by the Universe   I experienced what some would call an existential crisis. In this episode, I get cozy and personal about what happened to me. Then I tried and answer questions that I had, like, what is an existential crisis? Where does the idea of existentialism come from? What else can cause an existential crisis? Then, I explored what could be done to overcome this period. Ultimately, I hope you enjoy it and find it valuable to you.
