Celestial Curiosities

Curious about what Mercury Retrograde is really all about? It's so much more than the pop references you always hear like "don't call your ex!" or "of course technology malfunctions..."

Is that all true though? Get your notebooks ready for this one... We get into it and so much more in this episode. Tune in to learn:

• the basics of retrogrades
• the history and some mythology around Mercury and retrogrades
• the Mercury-Sun cycle and how it impacts us in our personal natal charts, and as a collective
• what the archetypes of Mercury & Sun coming together feel like and how we can acknowledge them, and use them to our advantage
• and so much more!

Listen up, y'all! We channeled our True Crime selves for this one, and it unfolded in a pretty epic way.

*Fair Warning: some dark stuff going on here; maybe don't listen right before bed, or maybe do if that's your kinda thing* ;)

On November 18th, 1978, Jim Jones led several hundred of his followers to their deaths, in what became known as the Jonestown Massacre.

What we found as we looked as the astrological significance of his chart + the chart of the massacre itself was honestly anything short of shocking. Tune in to hear:

• about Jones's life and how it is he became a cult leader
• the details of his cult, the People's Temple, and everything that led to the moment of the massacre
• how the stars aligned on his birthdate
• and how those stars related to the stars on the day of the massacre (spoiler alert: not one, not two, but *three* yods making some crazy statements!!!)
• and something about girding loins
• also, something brief about monkeys

Enjoy the psychological thriller vibes, and until next time... Stay Curious!

• what each suit symbolizes, and how they relate to the elements, as well as astrology overall
• what our cards are and how they present in us
• how you can use this system to better yourself and your relationships
• and much more!

We also learn a bit about Yerasimos and his story, while doing a bit of interpretation of his birth chart, of course!

Synastry: a very common astrological term describing the relationship between two people, as defined by the stars.

As if two humans aren't already complex enough, looking to the sky to further contextualize how we interact is a whole 'nother level!

So, in this episode, we get into the absolute basics, and get into:

• how synastry can be applied to all different kinds of relationships

• the elements and how those interact with each other on the most basic level
• how innate the elemental knowing is within us all
• a handful of real-life examples
• a handful of tangents that entertain more than educate (keepin' it real!)
• some examples of how different signs and placements relate to love
• & more!

Until next time… Stay Curious!
