In episode 102 astrologers Kelly Surtees and Austin Coppock join the show to talk about the astrological forecast for April of 2017.

We open the show with a long discussion about astrology sometimes giving you information about odd things that you don’t really need to know.

Later in the episode I also highlight one auspicious electional chart for the month of April, using the principles of electional astrology.

The artwork for this episode comes from the 2017 Planet Watcher astrology calendar.
