Breaking Down the Basics
In this week’s episode of astrolob’ys, Gill breaks down some of the basic concepts of astrology. They explain what the heck a birth chart is, how fast the planets move, what a rising sign is (and why it’s more important than the sun sign), and more! This episode also features a new segment called Bash That Myth! In this short segment, Gill addresses some stereotypes from pop-astrology that have made her sour (and sometimes even sad) This weeks myth: Why hating on Virgos is rooted in patriarchal BS! :) Be warned, this episode is as funny as it is fast. It was recorded under the influence of the Mars Uranus conjunction in Taurus after all.  Keep in touch!
