In episode 106 astrologers Kelly Surtees and Austin Coppock join the show to talk about the astrological forecast for May of 2017.

We open the show by talking about some recent news in the community, including a discussion about the episode of Bill Nye’s new show that covered astrology, and some related issues surrounding the relationship between astrology and science.

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

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