Damn this was on point

Thanks for watching or listening for 500 episodes!

Why the filming of Back to the Future is a perfect example of Mercury retrograde periods:

This is my adaptation of an old astrological poem that can be traced back to the 17th century in different versions. Show me how you would adapt the poem in your own language.

The ninth, our faith and travels reveal;
The tenth, career and public appeal;
Our friendships from the eleventh house are known;
And enemies from the twelfth to us are shown.

The first house signifies life, the second wealth does give;
The third, siblings, fourth, how parents live;
Children the fifth, sixth illnesses bring;
The seventh relationships, and the eighth death's sting;

Uranus moving into Gemini provides a great opportunity to reflect on what its transit through Taurus meant for you. What whole sign house was Uranus transiting in your chart over the past 7 years, and what changes did you experience in that area of your life?

That seems like a surprisingly uncharitable and inaccurate take, and I'm not sure why you would make such an false statement against so many astrologers in our community who are talking about this repetition right now, including your teacher Austin

In this episode I discuss how Luke Broughton was the first astrologer to discover the Uranus return pattern right as the US was on the cusp of the Civil War in 1861, and then Evangeline Adams used it to predict World War II a decade before it happened:

The three most important wars in US history happened when Uranus was in Gemini, and Uranus just returned to Gemini today

Unfortunately right on time

Go outside tonight just after sunset and look west to see the conjunction between Mars and Regulus.

I can't believe that the Saturn-Neptune conjunction is already going to be within a degree soon, and things are getting pretty weird out there with some of the AI video stuff

I really enjoyed collaborating with you on this as well! Thank you for the extensive research you put into this, and for helping me to develop a deeper understanding of Venus retrogrades!

Still in total disbelief but earlier this week I recorded an episode of @astrologypodcast.bsky.social
I am beyond honored to say that I got to join the incredible Chris Brennan and share some of the research that I’ve been doing over the last year on this Venus Retrograde and queer history!

Haha the Venus retrograde just hit the Oscars! It was being livestreamed for the first time, but the Hulu feed ended just as they were announcing best actress.

I did a roundup of recent news stories that are repetitions of past events due to the 8-year retrograde cycle of Venus:

Glad you enjoyed it! I was super excited to share all the research we found!

👀!

There are so many 8 year repetitions in the news lately, and in this episode we show how these patterns stretch back more than 100 years

Yeah that was accentuated further by the Venus Saturn conjunction which went exact tonight as they were shutting it down

No, it is just a fake account pretending to be mine, notice the extra letters at the end of the name. I'll go ahead and block them now though, thanks for the heads up!

TikTok shut down tonight—almost exactly 8 years to the day since Vine closed on January 17, 2017. One Venus cycle ago. A perfect repetition.
