The Stellium Astrology Podcast

Imagine having a deep and difficult conversation with your loved ones which enables acceptance and forgiveness while freeing you all from shame, sadness, and dysfunction. Imagine what it would feel like to be the chain-breaker in your family. But what if you don't want to have that conversation? Or it isn't possible due to bereavement, estrangement, or adoption (or any other reason for that matter)? Family Constellation Therapy makes it possible to do the work regardless of the many reasons you might not want, or be able to broach difficult issues with your family. You don't even have to KNOW who your family is. In today's episode, I speak to Family Constellations Facilitator, Sound Therapist, Yoga and Pilates teacher, and talented singer/songwriter, Karis Bunney, who has been constellating me for the past 18-24 months. Constellating your family system can not only reveal the root cause of some of the issues and beliefs that burden you, but allow you to forgive and heal generational wounds, so you are liberated from the “disturbances” of the past, enabling yourself and future generations to continue on a pathway of growth. During this episode, Karis explains what happens during a Family Constellation session, how it works, how it can free you, and theorises on the magic that makes it all happen. We also candidly share our personal experiences and invite you to think about how this transformational, transgenerational therapy could benefit you and your future generations. Ask yourself: Have you been caught in a feedback loop, repeating past patterns with no idea WHY it is so deeply ingrained in your subconscious? Do you recognise unhealthy behaviours/ideas/beliefs you want to change but don't know where they are rooted? Are you conscious of repeating family patterns and desperate not to make the same mistakes your parents/relatives did? If you answered yes to any of the above, this episode is for you.

“Symbols move in and out of people's lives as realities. To skirt through symbolism into real life and then back and forth, is the art of the symbol. Moving in and out, making sense of it, weaving tales around the astrological placement, that's what we do with dreams, as well. And the underlying element is that this stuff is real. Real information, real guidance, whether it's your dreams, whether it's astrology” Mesmerising words from Richard Swatton, who was kind enough to give up his time to record with us during Pisces season.  This was a special episode featuring my lovely patrons, who normally enjoy taking part in the regular conversations on the Stellium Astrology Patreon page. Despite many technological issues with software and hardware failing me, this was a fun episode to record. Next time I will make sure I have better conferencing software!

TRIGGER WARNING: Stalking & R*pe   PLUS CONTAINS SPOILERS! Please don't continue reading/listening if you are yet to watch the show.   Everyone's talking about Baby Reindeer, so I thought it was time to join the conversation.   Of course, I am looking at things from an astrological edge, and when they gave specific dates in the show, I just had to note them down to take a look.   The show was launched on 11 April 2024, during a highly volatile and compelling period of planetary transits (eclipse season, Mercury retrograde, and the Jupiter–Uranus conjunction).   Unsurprisingly, the nature of the story is shocking, moving and helplessly fascinating. The themes of this dark drama really plug into the zeitgeist.    It is important to note I don't have accurate birth data for Richard Gadd who plays Donald Dunn a.k.a. Baby Reindeer, and the dates discussed during the show may be fictional dates, but that doesn't matter because I believe any dates mentioned/fabricated/mistakenly issued, always hold some sort of meaning or significance.   That said, social and generational planets are slower moving, so I think they give a general feel for a period in time, without the need for zooming in on the personal planets/details.   Chart details Richard Gadd 11 May 1989 Wormit Scotland *cast for noon   Dates mentioned in show Stalking Donald Dunn 24 August 2015 to 22 March 2017   Stalking Parents 06 June 2016 to 22 March 2017   Read my article for The Mountain Astrologer: Weapons of Mass Distraction - Astrodienst    

Today I talk about the current astrology and the general feel of things. Mercury is stationed ready to enter his direct motion, the Jupiter–Uranus conjunction perfected on Sunday 21st, and the recent Eclipses from Late March to early April. What does it all mean? How is it manifesting? What can you do to make the most of it? And how has it impacted you?

OK, so I'm a bit late publishing this one, but Cara, my patron, asked me an interesting question: What does the Jupiter–Uranus conjunction in Taurus mean for those of us born with Chiron in Taurus? Here are my thoughts – I hope you find the episode useful. Please let me know what you think, and whether I missed anything! MENTIONED OUCH! Uranus on My Chiron  

Following on from last week's episode, inspired by Eckhart Tolle's A New Earth, I recorded some thoughts I had about the method in which the Ego makes itself known and communicates with us. Of course, the Ego in our horoscope is the Sun, but where would he be on his journey of becoming, without his diligent but oh-so-biased PA: Mercury, colouring every ounce of info he receives with his perspective? Have you read A New Earth or The Power of Now? EP036: The Sun https://youtu.be/xhpYNNauT0U?si=Pyx-NxQI-akgO0y5 EP028: Mercury https://youtu.be/EmPBHeZrmBA?si=-wBUjHUX8UfFN07d

A few weeks back I was reading a book called A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle and found myself relating the content to planetary transits and astrological placements. I talked about the transpersonal planets, or as they're commonly known: the Gods of change. This is all coinciding with a Pluto transit that I am currently having to my natal Mercury placement, so I wanted to share the insights I am having. Are you, or is anyone you know, having a transpersonal planetary transit?  

Something I've wanted to explore on this show for a very long time is a popular predictive technique called Secondary Progressions. I've always been intrigued but have spent most of my time focussing on other techniques because they came more naturally to me. So I decided to get my friend and astrological colleague, Fernanda Paiva, on the show to talk about this incredible predictive technique, while sharing the knowledge with you, too! Two phrases Fernanda used which were particularly evocative were “mining for meaning” and “the inward-facing eye” to describe the function and application of this fascinating topic. Have you used secondary progressions before and did you find them insightful? How did you apply them to your own chart and learning process?

Help us with our Juno research: https://forms.gle/12mhRWTFMBQ1ygkC7 I remember some time back in 2015, clicking around the additional objects on astro.com and discovering asteroid Juno who happened to be sandwiched right between my tight Mercury–Venus conjunction. Of course I was intrigued, but I was deep in the throes of a Pluto transit, so I had limited focus for distractions at that time. Recently by chance, I got talking to today's guest: Lianne McCafferty, about her peacock-inspired workspace – relevant for me over recent months as my little boy and I have been obsessed with them! We regularly have to visit the local “beegogs” as he so adorably puts it.   Turns out peacocks are associated with Juno! Just magical. Leanne has been fascinated with Juno since 2019/20 and has done a great deal of research which she is kindly sharing with us today. Like Venus and Jupiter, Leanne believes Juno to have benefic qualities which is no surprise as Juno is the wife of Jupiter. She is also known as Hera in Greek Mythology: long-suffering and committed wife of nymph-chasing serial-adulterer Zeus.  But Juno is about so much more than relationships – she impacts not only on a personal level, but social and mundane levels too, due to the speed, location and elliptical orbit of this fascinating asteroid.   ➡️ Where is Juno in your chart and can you relate to any of the areas we've covered today?   BIO Lianne McCafferty D.M.S. Astrol, MAPAI holds the Mayo Diploma (Distinction) in Natal & Mundane. In addition to tutoring, consulting, lecturing and writing, with articles published in the likes of the AA and NCGR Journals, as a former professional sportsperson & coach and now Black Belt 1st Dan in Shotokan Karate, the use of astrology to help enhance sport performance is of particular interest. https://liannemccafferty.com/ TIMESTAMPS 00:00:03 Intro 00:02:14 Lianne's Discovery of Juno 00:03:59 Lianne's Juno return 00:04:38 Lockdown revelations 00:10:53 Juno's speed, orbit & retrograde motion 00:14:37 Juno Mythology 00:17:44 Political Optome-TORY/partygate 00:21:12 Recent Mundane Events/Air Age 00:25:59 Glyph & Discovery chart 00:28:38 Juno Curitis: Warrior 00:29:05 Juno Sospita: Protector 00:31:07 Greek Myth: Hera 00:33:37 Lilith & Juno 00:39:42 Juno Moneta: Psychic accountant 00:43:33 Juno's Pattern 00:44:17 Juno Regina: Queen Consort 00:49:04 Patron saint of anniversaries 00:50:51 Juno Lucina: Midwife 01:03:25 Juno Natally 01:11:44 Sacrificing Lilith 01:15:30 Republic of Afghanistan 01:18:53 Fall of Kabul 01:34:05 Taiwan 01:35:18 Communist China 01:43:22 Aung San Suu Kyi - Burmese political leader/activist 01:50:16 Wrap up 01:52:10 Prize Draw   CHARTS Juno Discovery chart 01/09/1804, 22.00 pm, Lilienthal, Germany.

When in the mindset of reading the horoscope, we access in a different state of mind. This state allows us to be in touch with a peripheral field of information.  So what exactly is it we're doing when working with astrology and how does it produce such accurate results?  To quote today's guest, Richard Swatton: “you can't predict technique – you can have techniques of prediction but the prediction arrives in the moment” During this episode Richard and I discuss the other-worldly aspects of astrology, delving into the eighth house depths of a subject already coaxing us deeper into the realms of the subconscious. Richard has lead many different paths in this lifetime: Musician, Occultist, Psychotherapist, Astrologer and Tutor at the London School of Astrology. He is also the Author of Symbol to Substance and his new book The Horary Process: A Magical Approach to an Ancient Art, is due to be published at the end of 2023.  You'll understand why I feel so blessed to have learned at the LSA when you hear how fascinating, intelligent and inspiring Richard is. Without wanting to sound like Hannibal Lecter, what I wouldn't give for a slice of that brain...

Cerebral Mercury has entered his shadow period in preparation of his retrograde motion in his Virgo on 23/24 August (depending where on Earth you are). During this time there is a magical Grand Earth Trine forming in the skies, comprising of Mercury–Mars in Virgo, Jupiter–Uranus in Taurus and Pluto in Capricorn! The whole period is triggered into action by a secretly seething Moon in Scorpio opposite a rather discombobulated Uranus in Taurus, forming a temperamental T-Square apexing at righteous Lilith in Leo and the fastidious Sun in Virgo... Another thing to observe is the crossover between Venus and Mercury retrograde periods; both highlighting areas we need to identify what we truly value, followed up with a tricky decision which could prompt a complete change of direction. Under these volatile planetary conditions our manifesting ability could mimic the Midas touch. During this period it would be wise of us all to be careful what we wish for. ...btw, apologies for the quality of the recording. Unfortunately I had some Mercury retro gremlins (I know it's not that time just yet, but somehow these things seem to magically coincide).

The time is upon us –once again– to revel in the glory of Venus retrograde. During this period Venus meets with Lilith, Mercury, squares Uranus, and is instigated by a triggering grand-cross configuration with the Sun opposite Pluto both square to the North and South Nodes, all at the 29th “crisis” degree of the cardinal signs. Not so subtle. You will likely hear about romantic revelations, drastic changes, defiant behaviour, unexpected financial outgoings, cancelled plans, old-flames revisited and a complete 180° on long held values – though not necessarily all at once, or to one person. There's a checklist as long as my arm detailing things we *shouldn't* do during this time, but it's all very dependant on you and the circumstances around that decision (hence a deeper dive into your own natal chart with an astrologer is advisable if you're concerned). So don't freak out if you have a wedding booked have planned a big purchase. Some of these things are beyond our control and happen when they're meant to.

Many Moons ago when I was a lost soul seeking understanding of this Earthly realm, I decided to do something completely wacky and outside-the-box: Much to the dismay of my friends and family, I booked a reading with an astrologer – heaven forbid! That astrologer was Mary English and it was the best decision I ever made – it changed my life forever.

During my recent research into Venus Retrograde, the Barbie movie appeared in my feed labelled ‘feminist icon'. Naturally, my thought process was triggered – particularly with Lilith's role in Venus' retrograde period fresh in my mind.  Suddenly I found my self in a Barbie-shaped rabbit hole, perfectly pink and full of fascinating symbolism which resulted in this episode. Do you think Margot Robbie was born to play Barbie on screen?

I was brainstorming the horoscopes for Venus retrograde recently and decided rather than endlessly scribbling my thoughts down it makes more sense to record a short (LOL) session exploring my thought process. Mostly because I can see the story of Lilith playing out: this could be an incredibly powerful time for each of us individually and collectively IF we recognise the potential contained within the symbolism.

Rolf Harris was a celebrity artist and musician whose life took a very dark turn. A household name once loved by many, at the height of his career he was commissioned to paint a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. His loveable reputation was irreparably damaged when charges of indecent assault were made against him during Saturn's time trawling the depths of Scorpio, and From 6 May 2014, Harris went on trial and was convicted on 30th June 2014 on all twelve counts. During this pivotal period of his life, everything changed and overnight Harris became a disgraced public figure who abused his position. He died on May 10th 2023 and his legacy has been brought up, once again for public scrutiny. During this episode I look at some of the transits that saw Rolf Harris' fall from grace.

On Tuesday May 16th, Prince Harry, Meghan and her mother were in a “near catastrophic” car chase, pursued by paparazzi following the Women of Vision Gala in New York. This is deeply disturbing considering Harry's beloved mother, Diana Princess of Wales, lost her life in a high speed car chase in Paris while being pursued by paparazzi, on 31 August 1997.  In an open letter dated October 1st 2019, Harry wrote “My deepest fear is history repeating itself, I've seen what happens when someone I love is commoditised to the point that they are no longer treated or seen as a real person. I lost my mother and now I watch my wife falling victim to the same powerful forces." Hopefully history won't repeat itself. However, there are certainly echoes in the circumstances which make interesting viewing from an astrological lens. I hope we can see this as an opportunity to make changes before greed and celebrity obsession claim more lives – all in in the name of the next big headline. What do you think about the media's involvement in Harry's life?  Could Jupiter in Taurus square Pluto in Aquarius highlight the need for media outlets to acknowledge their obsession and dial back their relentless pursuit of celebrities at all costs?

The passing of Her Majesty the Queen Elizabeth III was viewed on the world stage.  As the longest reigning Monarch in history, her son Charles, successor to the throne, must have felt conflicted about his time in the spotlight, knowing it would follow the death of his mother. His time has come, and King Charles III will be crowned at his coronation at Westminster Abbey on May 6 2023, on a Lunar Eclipse, during Mercury Retrograde, just over a month after Pluto entered Aquarius for the first time since 1798. In this episode I take a look at King Charles III Coronation and peer into the events surrounding his transition in hierarchy, mindset, and family dynamics, while speculating how long this impending shift has been occurring through an astrological lens. What do you think about the new order in the British Monarchy, and do you think the future is bright with this reshuffling of the ruling elite?

March 2023 has some pretty major planetary transits: Saturn in Pisces on the 7th, and Pluto in Aquarius on the 23rd. Lots of my listeners, viewers and clients have been in touch with concerns about what these major shifts could mean for them and whether it's 'bad'. Having encountered some foreboding astrological predictions about these planetary transits, it really got me thinking about how unnecessarily anxiety inducing it is when we take on such negativity. I asked the one and only Frank C Clifford on the show to dispel fears around the imminent Saturn and Pluto transits, and offer some great tips for making the best of these transits. Are you feeling anxious about the current astro-weather, and have you already had Saturn and Pluto transits which turned out better than you were expecting?

Pluto enters Aquarius on 23rd March 2023 and it's a pretty big deal – the last time he entered Aquarius was 1777, and the next will be 2269! In fact the last time Pluto was in Aquarius, Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) – which is the same time measurement as Universal Time (UT) – was yet to be established! Time prior to 1884 was measured in Local Mean Time (LMT). None of us will see our Pluto return as he takes 248 years to do one lap of the Sun, though most will live to see their Pluto squares at around 40 years of age, and if you live a long and healthy life you may also reach your Pluto opposition! But that's for the select few (like my beautiful grandmother, God rest her soul). Are you already seeing signs of what Pluto in Aquarius means for you? Will you or someone you know be having Pluto aspect one of your luminaries or personal planets? Tell me about it in the comments!

Saturn enters Pisces on 7th March 2023 which is the first time he's not been in a sign he rules since 2017. His move into Pisces signals a huge shift which coincides with the ingress of both Pluto in Aquarius and Mars in Cancer – both occurring in the same month (more on these in future shows). Saturn was last in Pisces between May 1993 and April 1996 – those of you listening who were born during this time will be having your first Saturn return during this period. You could be having your second or third Saturn return during this period – I've included the Saturn in Pisces dates for these periods, below.

I felt inspired to discuss family synastry this week. It's not a deep analysis, more of a nudge to get you all to explore your own. It may shed some light on areas of your life where you feel as though you don't fit in with your family, or perhaps highlight a pattern that goes back through generations. As I was inspired by the holistic psychologist, my lovely patron Cara, and a random facebook post, I thought it was enough of a not from the Universe to wax lyrical on the subject!

On a personal update I recorded for my patrons in December, I mentioned that the Sun is on my South Node on Christmas Day every year so I normally have to deal with "South Node stuff". One of my lovely patrons, Julie, asked me if I could explain a little bit more about that. So this week I touch on the Lunar Nodes which are considered a karmic/fated point in astrology. I'm planning to record an episode on my actual Christmas experience for my patrons so if you're one of them, or want to know more about what my life is like outside of YouTube and podcasting, then consider signing up – your support will enable me to create more fun and interesting content.

Welcome to part 3 of this overview of how to generate different synastry techniques featuring Billie Eilish and Jesse Rutherford. This week we explore the Davidson chart. As described on www.astro.com: "The Davison chart calculates the midpoint in time between the two birth dates and times and the midpoint in space between the latitudes and longitudes of the two birthplaces. The end result is a complete birth chart describing the merger of two individuals." Do you think this is an accurate merger of this Pisces rising pair both yearning to become one?

This week I wanted to touch on the fact we're between eclipses, while looking at something pretty major that's finalised during this volatile period: Elon Musk's acquisition of Twitter. Regardless of your thoughts on Musk, this takeover is a huge deal considering the distribution of information is channelled mostly through social media platforms that are all owned by Meta, the CEO of which is Mark Zuckerburg. The acquisition of Twitter by Elon Musk began on April 14, 2022, and concluded on October 27, 2022. As Pluto nears his first foray in Aquarius since 1798, astrologers are preparing themselves for some big changes in the hierarchy, inclusive of the plutocrats that decide which information can be shared or filtered down to the little people (us!) How do you feel about Elon's acquisition of Twitter? Is he a supervillain or a dark horse here to save humanity? **Apologies for the late publication of this episode, I've been unwell this week and actually had a fever when recording this episode (I hadn't realised I was ill at that point though!)

Being an Evolutionary Astrology newbie, I really lucked out with my first ever introduction on the subject being with award-winning world renowned Astrologer Steven Forrest, principal of the Forrest Centre of Evolutionary Astrology and consultant to celebrities such as Sting and Robert Downey Jr. My Jupiter–Uranus conjunction in Sagittarius revelled in the opportunity to explore some of the bigger questions of life and beyond, starting with the most fundamental: Why? Believe me when I say this conversation did not disappoint – I thoroughly enjoyed every moment with Steven, during which I realised a lot of my thought processes and personal connection to our beloved craft was spookily in-sync with evolutionary astrology perspectives, and Steven's own personal journey.

This week one of my Patrons asked me about the difference between the 10th house cusp and the Midheaven – a phenomena that presents itself if you use the equal house system in astrology. For some this system is aggravating as it adds an extra point to interpret, for others like myself it adds an exciting added layer of detail about career and vocation. I share some of my go-to resources on the subject while exploring Catherine's chart as an example. What sign is your MC and what is the sign on your 10th house cusp? Do you relate to anything I've discussed during this episode?

As eclipse season for the late part of 2022 approaches, I share my thoughts on the symbolism of both eclipses and how I think this will manifest on a human level. It certainly seems as though we have to stand our ground on important matters, but will we alienate ourselves, or switch people on to our perspective? Is the eclipse hitting your chart?

I've had an interesting time during Mercury retrograde. It would seem I posted last week's episode up without even uploading the recording!! Anyway, whatever! I have Covid this week and feel very tired. I've had a lot of time to think about my own transits and what they mean for me. But I thought I'd make sure you had something to listen to/watch this week even if my voice sounds like one belonging to a heavy smoker! Recording and putting this out really tested my stamina! I think I'll go back to bed now...

This week's episode was recorded a week ago but I wasn't able to edit and publish it in time because I got ill and so did everyone in my house! Plus I had my presentation for the AA conference so I was really under pressure. I decided in the end to publish this episode for the following week and allow myself some time off to deal with all the pressure I've been having at home. So apologies that the update I gave you guys in this video is out of date as the conference has been and gone, but I am actually producing the work I did for my talk “Archetypes Reimagined” as a course for you guys to check out at some point in the future! ➡️ What did you think of Queen Elizabeth and are you pro the monarchy?

I had such a great time talking to Anne Whitaker – we haven't met before but you'd never guess – our synastry is tangible! Anne has written for Dell Horoscope and also the Astrological Journal, and was kind enough to send me a copy of her brilliant book: Postcards to the Future, Mercurial Musings 1995-2021. Nothing could prepare me for how binge-worthy this book would be, I highly recommend buying this for your collection – it's not the typical ‘cook book' but a compilation of interesting stories, personal experiences and astrological wonderings from an exceptionally talented and enquiring mind. I love it! But of course, I am a fan girl – I've recommended Anne's work on this podcast before so you can imagine how excited I was when she agreed to be a guest on The Stellium Astrology Podcast! Have you got a stellium which wants to be seen but also feels the need to hide away?   LINKS "Postcards..." is available everywhere on Amazon, in London at The Astrology Shop and Watkins Books and at https://www.wessexastrologer.com/ Previous episode mentioning Anne Writing from the Twelfth House Astrology Questions and Answers Steven Forrest Astrology The Endless Sky by Steven Forrest  

We've all heard people using the terminology, but what exactly is the retrograde shadow period and is it exclusive to Mercury? According to astrologers, there is more than one definition for a shadow period and I attempt to clarify this for you all – as Mercury is in his pre-shadow and entering retrograde motion! As this is the case, apologies if I don't actually offer a decent explanation. This is an enhanced podcast episode so I had to go do a lot of editing as there were a few mercurial mistakes – pretty sure you can cut me some slack given the current planetary weather. What does the shadow period mean to you? Have you recognised events connected to the retrograde period beginning and concluding during the shadow?  

This week I decided to explore a listener chart as Karis is having a bit of a difficult time and I thought it would a a good chart to look at and try to shed some light on the planets currently transiting her chart.  I also look at her Solar Arc directed chart and her progressed chart –  we've looked at Solar Arc before but have't explored progressions just yet. As you can see, Karis is undergoing a few transits which are causing her to question her direction and where she focusses her time and energy, while also undergoing some pretty major transits which trigger some deep personal exploration. Are you having similar transits/experiences to Karis right now? Tell me in the comments! (btw, Venus is never more than 47° and Mercury is never more than 28° away from the Sun. I couldn't remember the exact number during today's episode.)

Following on from last week's episode, the first part of this Spiritual Toolkit segment of TSAP, I decided to try something new and record a guided meditation. It's by no means perfect but as it's the first time I sat down to record anything like this for you guys I think I did a pretty good job! It's probably advisable to be in a comfortable and relaxing place rather than driving a car while listening to this episode. I also bid a very sad farewell to a tutor and mentor of mine, Sue Merlyn Farebrother. Let me know what you think of the guided meditation  – did it help you to feel more relaxed and grounded? Do you also carry tension in your butt cheeks?

I was inspired to record this week's episode after a conversation I had with a friend of mine who has a Pisces stellium including her Moon. We discussed some cleansing, grounding and protecting techniques that she could use to 'protect' her super absorbent lunar placement. I saw this great quote when sourcing the links for this episode which pretty much sums up part of what I'm saying: "If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration" Nikola Tesla Anyway, this week I discuss 'Auric Hygiene' (did I coin this term?!) and next week I'll talk about grounding and protecting and offer some tips on how to do this with little disruption to your day! Do you feel exhausted or charged when spending time with others? What is your Moon sign?   p.s: This episode was recorded in two parts and as is always the way, this was no accident in a planetary sense. I started recording 26° Scorpio was prominent, and finished recording a few days later when the Moon was at 29° Pisces. What I find fascinating is the fact these degrees are that of my late-grandmother's Sun and Ascendant respectively, and she got a big mention during this episode!   LINKS Info about my talk for The Astrological Association Conference Palo Santo https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bursera_graveolens Cornstarch with water on a speaker https://youtu.be/MuuO_1nm4NM?t=30 Sand on a speaker https://youtu.be/wvJAgrUBF4w The Universe as Frequency https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/observations/the-hippies-were-right-its-all-about-vibrations-man/ In the Beginning was the Word https://www.languageinsight.com/blog/2019/the-origin-of-language-evolutions-greatest-mystery/  

Thank goodness I decided to record this podcast episode in advance – I've lost my voice and sound like Lemmy from Motorhead! As explained in today's episode, I received an email a few days ago which immediately inspired me to record an episode and I just so happened to have the free time. Wonderful! Have you ever noticed yourself fired up and it coinciding with a Mars transit? Particularly your Mars Square? I'd love to hear about it!

Prince Harry has always been my favourite royal. When his engagement to Meghan Markle was announced I was intrigued – other than the fact she was an actress on a show called Suits I didn't really know much about her (so of course I did a lot of googling). When cooing about his romance with Megan, Harry stated "the stars were aligned" and he wasn't wrong; there's something wonderfully poignant about their astrological synastry. Even more compelling is their planetary interplay with the Queen's natal chart. Are you a fan of Harry and Meghan? Are you a Uranian anti-establishment Aquarian type or a Saturnian fan of tradition and heirarchy?   LINKS Meghan Markle https://www.astro.com/astro-databank/Meghan,_Duchess_of_Sussex Prince Harry https://www.astro.com/astro-databank/Harry,_Duke_of_Sussex Queen Elizabeth https://www.astro.com/astro-databank/Elizabeth_II,_Queen_of_the_United_Kingdom Johari Window https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johari_window Great Video on the Johari Window https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7FhcvoVK8s&t=2s TSAP Yod Episode https://stelliumastrology.libsyn.com/tsap059-the-aspects-yod-hand-of-god-finger-of-fate-03072021-14 TSAP T-Square Episode https://stelliumastrology.libsyn.com/tsap054-the-aspects-t-square  

How has it been TWO YEARS since the launch of The Stellium Astrology Podcast?! So much has happened since then! One of the great things about astrology is the ability to look back over the charts of the past with hindsight. This is a particularly interesting thing to do when looking at Solar Returns (basically birthday charts). During this episode I look at the first and second birthday charts of the podcast, how things unfolded last year, and how they may unfold in the coming year. Have you ever looked at your own Solar Returns?    TSAP Launch Date 29 July 2020 09:38 BST Northampton, UK TSAP 1st Birthday 29 July 2021 15:31 BST Northampton, UK TSAP 2nd Birthday 29 July 2022 20:06 BST Northampton, UK   LINKS  The Stellium Astrology Podcast Natal Chart https://www.stelliumastrology.com/podcast/the-stellium-astrology-podcast-natal-chart/ Planets in Solar Returns: Yearly Cycles of Transformation & Growth by Mary Fortier Shea https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/40846450-planets-in-solar-returns  

Once upon a time on a celebrity reality TV show, two of the UK's cheesiest celebrities crossed paths, and cupid's bow struck them hard. Fast forward to this podcast episode where the celebrities of discussion – Katie Price and Peter Andre – have been married, had babies, got divorced, and somewhere during all this, found time to record a studio album together. I apologise in advance for bringing this couple to your awareness if you've happily lived your life with no prior knowledge of them, but I hope you enjoy listening to their synastry, and also the unedited version of it!   LINKS  Katie Price (no birth time) https://astro-charts.com/persons/chart/katie-price/ Peter Andre https://www.astro.com/astro-databank/Andre,_Peter Katie Price YouTube Channel https://youtube.com/c/KatiePriceYoutube Peter Andre YouTube channel https://youtube.com/channel/UCyjHw7mLtYpHU4KoenN-lgg Mastered and auto-tuned version of A Whole New World https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLRKdB7orn0 Studio unedited version of A Whole New World https://youtu.be/DGKkYCeuiaI  

Today's episode took me on a thought journey! My original plan was to stick to a rough structure but I let the mood of the moment carry me into a ponderland of mundane* astrology peppered with moments of synastry and sensory exploration. Yes I went on a waffly one, but listening back it was so much better that I thought it would be (this is always what happens!) so I must thank the source which allows this channel of information to flow though me. It happens from time to time and I trust that this what is expressed needs to be shared when I sit down with the sole intention of recording my podcast. Discussed is larger planetay transits which influence fashions and trends rather than indivduals. Do you have transpersonal planets aspecting your personal planets natally and have you noticed being part of the trends as they happen? Or are you having a transpersonal planet aspect your natal planets and are you affected by the current issues of the world on a personal level? *Mundane astrology is the branch of astrology whose subjects are the events of geographical regions, places, countries and the whole world (as opposed to individual astrology). The term comes from the Latin word mundus (world).   LINKS  The Book of Music Horoscopes https://frankclifford.co.uk/buybooks/#music The Great Hip Hop Hoax https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUGUydxj-ck Kate Bush https://www.astrotheme.com/astrology/Kate_Bush Millie Bobby Brown https://www.astrotheme.com/astrology/Millie_Bobby_Brown  

We all feel the affects of other people in our lives; the love, the laughter, the stress, the frustration! But other than being aware of others physically and how they make us feel, have you ever wondered if it's possible to hear synastry? It's an area I've been interested in for quite a while as something very magical happens when people collaborate musically. If you like music you'll love looking at the charts of the artists you love and understanding a new dimension of their artistic expression, as well as how their charts act as a type of interference pattern when two people get together and impact each other, creating a totally unique sound. I'll probably make a few episodes on this subject as there are a lot of great (and not-so-great) musicians out there who will be fun to explore! I had to start with John Lennon and Paul McCartney – both so talented, and so different. Amazing apart, amazing together. Totally unique and influential. Who are your favourite artists? Have they collaborated with other musicians and how does that affect the sound they produce? Does the synastry sound different to you?

Just recently I've been binge-watching Stranger Things and I have a bit of a thing for David Harbour. On a Googling spree I discovered he's married to UK pop star Lily Allen. Of course from that point onward my Scorpio Moon and Mercury–Venus square Pluto went into overdrive delving into Lily and David's relationship, discovering lots about them both. A bit stalkery I guess. To ease my personal shame I decided to turn this crazy stalking into something productive by turning my thoughts into a podcast episode. To be fair, Lily Allen and David Harbour have some very interesting synastry, even when using the noon charts (which is all that's available). Have you seen Stranger Things and do you dig David Harbour like I do? Were you as shocked as I when you discovered he married Liliy Allen?
