The Girl and the Galaxy Podcast is your no nonsense guide to the cosmos, merging spirituality and practicality to help navigate the times we are living in, and empower you to be your best self.
The Girl and the Galaxy podcast has truly been a gift to me, as someone who was previously a passive astrology enthusiast. This podcast has provided me with solid groundwork to start off the year 2022, and I am incredibly grateful for it. Kate Heinricher, Jordan, and Mal do an amazing job of breaking down the astrology for each month, covering both mundane and personal aspects. They bring in excellent examples and anecdotes that really bring the transits to life. Every month, I eagerly await their forecast for the coming weeks.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is how Kate Heinricher serves as an incredible astrological guide. Her expertise is evident and she approaches astrology with a perfect balance of objectivity and empathy. She provides constructive and comforting advice that leaves listeners feeling empowered and educated. Her soothing voice adds an extra layer of enjoyment to each episode. The podcast also goes beyond just discussing personal astrology; it touches on national politics as well, providing unique insights into how cosmic bodies may influence our world at large.
Another great aspect of The Girl and the Galaxy podcast is its thorough analysis of what the planets are doing. Each episode delves deep into the current transits, giving listeners a comprehensive understanding of how these celestial movements may impact our emotions and actions. The examples provided throughout each episode really help illustrate these concepts in a relatable way. The recent 2x Retrograde episode was especially intriguing and informative.
In terms of downsides, there really aren't many to speak of when it comes to this podcast. Perhaps one possible improvement could be more frequent episodes or bonus content between monthly forecasts. However, given the quality and depth of each episode, I can understand that producing more frequent content may not always be feasible.
In conclusion, The Girl and the Galaxy podcast is a must-listen for anyone interested in astrology. Whether you're new to astrology or have been practicing for years, this podcast offers valuable insights and guidance that can help make sense of both your inner workings and the world around you. Kate Heinricher's expertise, along with the engaging and relatable approach taken by the hosts, make this podcast a true gem. I highly recommend it.

In the second episode of the three part series on the astrology of 2020, we dive into the intense dynamics of the historical times we are living through. We're building on our understanding of Pluto, and looking into how other outer planets are impacting the collective ethos. This episode will go into more detail and nuance, explaining the astrology of the dynamics of fear, crisis, and polarization we are living through today. To understand our current cultural climate, we can look back and see how Pluto & Uranus squared off in the 2010's and brought protests against the establishment. In reaction to these events, there has been a crisis, symbolized by the conjunction of Saturn & Pluto. Saturn & Pluto tend to usher in fear, suppression of democratic rights, and existential threats to our security. This episode highlights historical examples throughout the 20th century of the Saturn/Pluto dynamic like World War One, the rise of Nazism, the Cold War, and September 11th. The Saturn & Pluto dynamic is anxiety producing, and we talk about how to navigate the insecurity of these trying times by choosing love and expansion over fear and contraction. We end with a discussion of the future (represented by Jupiter & Saturn) and what to expect as we move forward into the Age of Aquarius. :: Resources & References :: Official Pronunciation of Drew's Instagram is Anth-Rah-Suh-Fist, @anthrosophist (referenced in the topic of 'Universal Astrology' vs 'Mundane Astrology'): https://www.instagram.com/anthrosophist/ A Paradise Built in Hell by Rebecca Solnit (referenced in discussion about human nature, in response to the Saturn/Pluto dynamic) : https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003XQEVLM/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1 Cosmos & Psyche by Richard Tarnas (referenced as a resource to understand planetary cycles that resemble the collective ethos): https://www.amazon.com/Cosmos-Psyche-Intimations-World-View-ebook/dp/B000OVLIPQ/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=cosmos+and+psyche&qid=1589226141&sr=8-1 Astrology University (referenced at the end of the episode as a wonderful resource to nerd out on the astrology of 2020 and other topics): https://www.astrologyuniversity.com/summit-2020-epic-astrology-cycles/ :: Let's Stay Connected :: Follow @girlandthegalaxy on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/girlandthegalaxy Subscribe to the Monthly Newsletter & Special Offers: https://www.girlandthegalaxy.com/subscribe Free Astrology Resources by yours truly: https://www.girlandthegalaxy.com/understanding-astrology Book Your Reading Online with yours truly: https://www.girlandthegalaxy.com/book-online
This is the first of a three episode series on the Astrology of 2020. In this episode, we start with an understanding of how we can use astrology to understand what is happening in the collective psyche. If we want to get in deep to the collective ethos, look no further than Pluto. Pluto is a planetary powerhouse that sheds light on cycles of collective transformation and evolution. Pluto serves as the baseline to understand what is going on right now in these historical times we are living in. Since 2008 (when Obama was elected and we experienced the Great Recession), Pluto has been symbolically transforming our governments and institutions. Now, Pluto is at his apex, and we are experiencing incredible collective shifts. Listen in to understand why exactly this is happening astrologically, and how we can work with this energy on a personal level, and usher in a bit more peace and understanding. :: Resources & References :: Inner Sense Healing Arts (follow for awesome events & workshops in Chicago and online): https://www.instagram.com/innersensehealingarts/ New York Times Article (mentioned in reference to the election of Trump & Obama) https://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/03/us/politics/obama-donald-trump-voting.html Lacy Phillips - To Be Magnet Shadow Workshops (mentioned in the episode on how to with the shadow that Pluto triggers in these times). https://www.howtomanifest.com/p/unblocked-shadow :: Let's Stay Connected :: Follow @girlandthegalaxy on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/girlandthegalaxy Subscribe to the Monthly Newsletter & Special Offers: https://www.girlandthegalaxy.com/subscribe Free Astrology Resources by yours truly: https://www.girlandthegalaxy.com/understanding-astrology Book Your Reading Online with yours truly: https://www.girlandthegalaxy.com/book-online
