This week my guest is Astrologer Quan Tracy Cherry. He shares his story of being in law school and knowing he wasn't destined for life as a lawyer, his evolution as an astrologer and intuitive guide, ultilzing tarot in his readings. We talk about his philanthropic project with Tavish Carduff, Our Raw Material, a natural thought practice that balances ego and soul to create an inner journey to Wholeness. And he shares an upcoming presentation with Dr Christina McDowell called, Sextrology: Sex, Psychology and Astrological Insights.
Get to know Quan: Born in Detroit on the Third Coast, the Great Lakes has an incredible legacy. In many ways Quan Tracy Cherry has created a legacy of his own. He has more than 26 years as a full time Astrologer called Belief Is Not Required. After all, knowledge plus experience equals wisdom. Lawyer, accountant and Jehovah's Witness before any Astrology or metaphysical practices became rooted, a major goal of Quan's is to integrate the linear (and often incorrectly considered superior) Astrology with the intuitive Tarot--yang and yin. He has often said ‘it is important to learn your chart to transcend your chart'. As we evolve in consciousness and love, our astrological charts and tarot cards are guideposts on our shared spiritual roads, not final destinations or fixed personality points.
His philanthropic project with Tavish Carduff, Our Raw Material (ORM), creates a perfect vehicle for everyone's ‘Flight to Canada' as our egos leave metaphorical slavery to the freedoms our souls offers. Our Raw Materiais a natural thought practice that balances ego and soul to create an inner journey to Wholeness. These two businesses integrate the complexity and detail of Quan's esoteric knowledge of Astrology, Tarot & I Ching with the 12 pillars of ORM. Every equinox and solstice we contemplate these 12 pillars. These pillars are Mentors, Music, Food, Ignorance, Emotions, Listening, Values & Ideals, Conflict, Intention, Resources, Alignment with Intentions and Wholeness. Each pillar has a week dedicated to it where we breathe, drink water and align physically while contemplating the pillar.
Quan was aided in building an astrological practice here in Kansas City through a weekly column in the PitchWeekly along with radio and TV spots in the KC Metro Area. Monthly he joins EmpowerKC to offer his services with a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner.
Quan, is a father of one adult son, a yogi, has three apprentices and he cooks for self-expression and love.
