Is using astrology-powered AI bad for business?That's what we'll explore in today's episode of the podcast.The truth?One of my recent Facebook ads went awry… So I'm giving you my hot take on the benefits and pitfalls of using astrology and AI to write your copy.This episode aims to give you ideas for using AI as a powerful tool in your business, rather than creating stuff that sounds like a robot wrote it.I also talk about how to use AI for astrology (spoiler: you need to use discernment and it will never be as good as a personal 1:1 reading).____________Here's the story behind this episode:A few weeks ago, I developed a new resource and ran some ads to help it reach more people. To be clear, the first round of my ads didn't do that well. But something else happened instead…Last week, an astrologer friend told me my ad had been mentioned on a popular astrology channel – with highly respected astrologers – here on YouTube.It turns out it wasn't mentioned positively. While I wasn't completely torn apart, the hosts raised questions about my ad, and whether it was connected to ineffective or fake astrology and copywriting.For context, their video was about the Venus Star Point – an interesting and complex astrological sequence to do with the conjunctions of Venus and the Sun. The astrologers in this video talk about the themes that arise when these star points occur and there's one coming up soon in Gemini.And AI (what's real and what's fake) is a big theme coming through...You can check out the full video here if you want to watch and get the context yourself.(My ad is featured about the 55-minute mark.)

By aligning your offers with these cosmic elements, you can enhance their appeal to you and your target audience.In this week's podcast episode (and YouTube video), I'll guide you through crafting offers that reflect your passion (Sun), connect emotionally (Moon), and are presented in the most engaging way (Rising).This personalised method ensures your offer stands out AND resonates deeply with you and your ideal clients.

Did you know every year of your life corresponds to a specific set of topics in your birth chart?And you can unlock those topics or themes to help you understand what's likely to come up for you throughout the year in life and business.In today's podcast episode, we're exploring an ancient astrological technique called Annual Professions.Working with Annual Profections involves assigning each year of a person's life to a specific house in their birth chart, known as the "profected house". It's like moving your Rising Sign forward every birthday. The concept is based on the idea that certain themes and experiences are emphasised during different periods of life, depending on the house that's activated for a particular year.This technique is a powerful way to understand the theme of your year and prepare for some key business or life issues/events. And because this system corresponds to the 12 houses of the chart, it means you can track the themes in 12-year cycles. So, think back to 12 years ago and what was going on in your life... … I always find this spookily insightful.

In this week's episode, I'm going to give a rundown of how Pluto in Aquarius will impact your business and personal journey for the next chapter of your life. But before you listen, remember: Pluto is supposed to shock or disturb you.It's supposed to shake you at a core level and help you to uncover your darker side or your intense emotions.It's here to help you go deeper within yourself and uncover what you're truly made of.
In today's podcast episode, I explore how aligning your marketing activities with astrological events gives your plans a powerful boost. I'll tell you three ways to harness the energy of the cosmos and align it with your marketing plan for maximum impact in 2024.
