Witch Sesh

After the astrological chaos of April — eclipses! Mercury retrograde! — May feels like a breath of fresh air.

Eclipse season keeps on eclipsing and, frankly, we’re spiraling a bit. So this week, we thought we’d do a reading about what’s coming next. Specifically, what blessings, good fortune, or positive transformations are in store — for us here on the pod and anyone listening, watching, or reading. We didn’t even realize how on the nose this reading really is, given that Jupiter’s set to conjunct Uranus in Taurus for the first time in 14 years (!!) on April 20th.

Hoo boy. This reading predicting the month ahead was an intense one — fitting, seeing as how we’re in the thick of eclipse season! April finds us fresh off of last week’s lunar eclipse in Libra, staring into the barrel of a solar eclipse in Aries and (everyone’s favorite)…Mercury going retrograde. Some of us (ahem) have already been getting their shit rocked by eclipse season. If this reading’s any indication, we’re all in the same boat there…or we’re about to be. Eep.

In full disclosure, this was the first episode we ever recorded. It felt a little aggro to start off our podcasting journey with an hourlong deep-dive into our astrological charts and the saga of our friendship. So we decided to hold onto it for a rainy day. When this publishes, we’ll be reunited IRL (!) in London (!!) for one of our closest friend’s wedding (!!!). So for us, at least, it will almost definitely be a rainy day.

We also have a good number of new friends here — Hi! Are you lost? No? Then welcome! — so it feels like a good time for you to get to know us a bit better.

Welcome to part 2 of our slightly deranged, very unserious Taylor Swift-themed reading before her new album, The Tortured Poets Department, drops on April 19th. Just doing our part to prop up the Taylor Swift media criticism industrial complex!

In full disclosure, Shenel wanted to call this episode Joe Alwyn's Witness Protection Program Era. Shaz thought that he’s had enough airtime already. This is just the first of many hot takes in a slightly deranged, very unserious Taylor Swift-themed reading before her new album, The Tortured Poets Department, drops on April 19th.

We truly went off in this reading — so much so that we had to split it into two parts. Tune in next week for the rest of our track-by-track hot takes, plus predictions for Tay’s love life, career, and personal growth.

In our first-ever (!) episode, we assess the vibes for March and they’re…pretty solid, we think? It feels a little shady of the cards to suggest that we run the risk of girlbossing too close to the sun with this new project.

Digressions include Shaz getting too honest at a dinner party (subscribe to her Substack if you can relate) and Shenel encountering something she previously thought impossible: a case of too many dogs.
