Asteroid Stories - Philomela and Weaving Grief into Art


Listen Later

One of the most impactful ways to work with asteroids astrologically is to use them to determine which mythic stories you embody in your lifetime. Storytelling can be a deeply healing experience that connects us backwards and forwards across time through the lineage of oral tradition.

In this episode, astrologer Hannah Piper Burns talks about the mythic story of Philomela who weaves the grief of her tragedy into a tapestry. The story of Philomela can be captured through tracking her asteroid in an astrological chart. Philomela is a powerful being who can prompt us to speak the unspeakable and transform tragedy into beauty.

This episode builds on material we discussed in our ⁠Asteroids 101 episode⁠. Be sure to listen the ⁠Asteroids 101 episode⁠ first if you'd like a primer on what asteroids are and how to look up and interpret asteroids in an astrology chart. 

Philomela asteroid number: 196
