The Astrology of it all
The Astrology of It All is a podcast about astrology as a system — not superstition. Each episode uses the zodiac, planetary cycles, and seasonal patterns as tools for understanding behavior, power, survival strategies, and cultural dynamics.

The show features bi‑weekly pop‑culture and reality TV breakdowns (with a focus on the Bravo and Real Housewives universe), alongside weekly episodes exploring current transits and seasonal context.
