The podcast is 1 year old today! In this special anniversary episode, Claire gets personal with cards of the year and shares their experience of living through a Death year. We talk about shedding, transformation, and the sacrifice required to bring anything new into the world. Also in this episode: updates on wtf has been going on since the last episode, and Claire briefly reads the podcast’s natal chart. It’s a double air sign, just like Claire! (To no one’s surprise.)
