We got a lunar eclipse this week in the sign of Pisces, meaning it is full moon on the horizon. What is being illuminated from the deep waters that require the examination of your faith system? See, it’s been a weird ass time as we are facing a crisis of faith in society. Who do you believe? Why? Does the logic add up? Opposite Pisces sits Virgo, the Earth mutable sign that has been asking us to assess if we have digested is truly nourishing. Cause we cannot feed off of dead things, so what happens when the logics and faithe systems we have depended upon no longer can sustain us? Well the discipline of astrology is getting a taste of this as the past month or so has seen nonstop conversations on race, nation, methods, and origin stories after an elder in the community, Steven Forrest, revealed more of his own belief systems that influence his teachings and philosophy.  Those beliefs are based in colonial logics disguised as universal laws. But it is about more than Steven, for he is an archetype of the white patriarch who claims moral authority but in reality has no legs to stand on once it is shown the Emperor has no clothes. The south node in Leo is loud and roaring. So if it is time for the fall of kings, who takes their place? What stories must be co-created to lay the foundations of new belief systems and logic systems that are sustaining for our human bodies and societies? Well today I am joined by three other Black women astrologers - Ayla, Pam Awesome and Diana Vanessa, to get into this and more as we talk about how we work with astrology to help us get free in times of social unrest where we are being asked to create new futures in the present.
