Astrologically, asteroids that are placed prominently in our birth charts serve as beacons to the mythic stories we embody in our lifetimes. In this podcast episode, astrologers Lori Kaufman and Alicia Cielle Heiser discuss the mythology of Rhea (Kronos's wife) and Chariklo (Chiron's wife).

While their husbands are more well-know, these two powerful women add depth and dimension to ancient stories that continue to play out in our modern lives. We also take a tangent to talk about the impact of dark houses in the birth chart, a topic that both Lori and Alicia are intimately familiar with through their own birth charts.

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. 

Asteroid Numbers:

• Rhea: 577
• Chariklo: 10199
