27. Interview with Aeolian Heart: Learning Astrology and Venus in Pisces
Full video link: https://youtu.be/Odrir6rs4_M
Happy Chinese New Year! So recently, I had the great pleasure of talking with Rachel a.k.a. Aeolian Heart Aeolian Heart Astrology (ok, who else thinks that would be a über-gangsta rap alias?) about how newbies can learn about astrology, and about the Venus in Pisces transit happening from now until March 6. But first things first - can we all appreciate the incredible HAIR going on from both of us?
There's a ton of really practical advice in this video - example: Venus is in Pisces from now until March 6. That means even a little effort in doing Venusian things in your life (love, luxury, beauty, glamour, etc.) will yield massive returns. In a couple hours, during Venus hour on Friday (which is Friday), I'll definitely be doing some Venus rituals (including putting on my fave bright red lipstick and drinking something yummy).
Enjoy!
P.S. Rachel's beginner's astrology online class, DISCOVERY, opens for registration in a few hours. I took it last year and it was hands down one of the best online classes I've been in.
DISCOVERY: The Art and Soul of Astrology - 12-week beginner's astrology class. I absolutely loved this class, and went from complete newbie to being much more comfortable talking astro. Registration for round 3 begins Feb. 15 at 1pm!

25. Ceres Food Reading with Thea Wirsching (The Pluto Babe)
Link to full video: https://youtu.be/RweNEoPfcL0
Happy New Year everyone! Who better to join me for the first Witches & Wine video of 2018 than The Pluto Babe, Thea Wirsching. Thea takes me on a “food tour” of my astrological chart - basically, what does the planet Ceres say about my relationship to food? I know, I never thought astrology dealt with mundane things like why I want to basically live at a buffet restaurant.
How apropos - New Year’s Resolutions often involve dieting or trying to overhaul what you eat. But this food tour reading is NOT about losing weight or hating yourself for gorging over the holidays. It’s a body-positive look at what is really driving your hunger - and as someone with Ceres-conjunct-Mars-in-10th house -Pisces-opposing-Saturn 😅 I can say that what I learned about myself through Ceres shifted some entrenched paradigms and (figurative) sacred cows about my identity as a foodie, gourmand, and recovering overeater
