Listen Later

Are you intrigued by astrology, finding solace or guidance in the stars? If so, it might be time for a reality check. In this enlightening episode of "The Rachel Lang Show," join host Rachel Lang and renowned astrologer Rick Levine as they delve into the upcoming astrological events that hold significance for us all.

Scheduled for discussion are the impactful March 25th eclipse and the anticipated Jupiter-Uranus conjunction. Rachel and Rick navigate through these cosmic occurrences, shedding light on their implications, such as the North Node's placement in Aries and the healing influence of Chiron.

Rick offers a critical perspective on Adam Grant's article concerning astrology, arguing that Grant's analysis barely scratches the surface of this intricate subject. He suggests a deeper exploration into astrological principles and recommends delving into academic resources for a more nuanced understanding. The conversation extends to the celestial movements, such as Mars transitioning into Pisces and the dynamic interactions between Mars, Saturn, and Neptune. Rick provocatively introduces concepts like non-locality and particle-wave duality, suggesting that astrology might transcend conventional scientific comprehension.

As the episode progresses, Rachel and Rick encourage listeners to engage with their birth charts, urging them to appreciate the profound depth of astrology. Through this cosmic lens, they advocate for a broader perspective in navigating daily life, emphasizing the interconnectedness between the celestial and earthly realms.

    • [48:57] "When one says 'my goal is to debunk astrology,' that shows that there's experimental bias even before you're out of the starting gate."- Rick
    • [51:32] "I received an email a number of years ago that said, 'I'm considering entering into a relationship after being alone for several years. What goes well with a Taurus?' And I responded to that email, 'Have you tried a 1983 Cabernet?'-Rick
