Summary

On this Pisces New Moon episode of Cosmic Cousins, we begin by arriving in the liminal space this lunation creates—a threshold between the dream that has carried us for over a decade and the new reality beginning to emerge. This is a moment to feel deeply, to notice the currents beneath the surface, and to honor both the surrender and the subtle stirrings of action that this closing cycle invites. Then, Jeff Hinshaw is joined by Pisces Moon artist Rochelle Voyles. Returning to the podcast for the first time since 2017, we dive into Rochelle’s solo exhibition Unreliable Narrators that just opened at 81 Leonard Gallery in Tribeca. Through pieces like “Slithering Ruin” and “Defense and Entrapment,” we contemplate nonlinear time, archetypal storytelling, and the duality of distance, and how beauty invites us closer to truths that may otherwise feel unbearable. Music becomes a co-conspirator in this process, with two songs from Pisces Moon artists Anna Olivia Eve and Lindsey Mills guiding emotional resonance and collective reflection. We reimagine collage as a spiritual technology (one that mirrors astrology, tarot, and memory itself) where meaning is not prescribed but discovered through feeling. In a closing “Mystical Meandering,” Rochelle journeys through a surreal Pisces Dreamscape, and receives a visit from a crab on the seashores, looks up through a telescope to cloudy skies, and receives ancestral guidance from the Six of Cups and an invocation of healing from past trauma. We seal the episode with reflections on water as conduit, reminding us that to trust the dream, to honor the unseen, and to create from the depths is itself an act of healing, connection, and quiet revolution.
