In this episode, Sarah Diop guides you through:

• The potent energy of the Year of the Fire Horse: a once-in-60-years invitation to run wild

• The astrology of March 2026, including a total lunar eclipse, Mercury retrograde, and the astrological new year

• March's new and full moon dates with a sacred Moon Water ritual for release and intention-setting

• A health tip inspired by Karma Brown's The 4% Fix: waking 5–15 minutes earlier to take the first slice of pie for yourself

• A collective tarot reading to carry with you through the month

If you've been feeling the pull to slow down, listen inward, and remember who you are beneath the noise—this episode is your touchstone.

• A clean glass jar or drinking glass

• Water

• Small piece of paper and pen

• Fireproof bowl for burning

• Access to moonlight (a windowsill works)

1. Write what you're ready to release: fears, patterns, anything exposed by recent revelations

2. Fill your jar with water, place on windowsill, and say:
   "I charge this water under the Worm Moon Eclipse. May it absorb the purifying light of this revelation."

3. Wrap your paper around the base of the glass; leave overnight

4. At sunrise, hold the glass and say:
   "I drink the light of the Worm Moon. May this water cleanse me from within."

Within every woman there is a wild and natural creature…

Welcome to The Wild Woman with Sarah Diop. This is not just a podcast launch, it's a homecoming.

In this prologue episode, Sarah Diop invites you into the heart of why this space exists and what it means to reclaim your wild, authentic voice in a world that often asks women to shrink. Drawing inspiration from the work that began in the very first season of Book Interrupted with Women Who Run With the Wolves, this episode marks the beginning of a new chapter, for Sarah, and for every woman who feels the pull to return to herself.

Sarah introduces the rhythm of the show, what you can expect each month, and why launching on February 17th, 2026, the Year of the Horse, is no coincidence. The Horse energy calls us to run wild, to shed what weighs us down, and to charge toward what sets our souls on fire.

If you've ever felt the whisper of your own wild woman, this episode is your invitation to listen.
