    EP151 Astrology & Dreams with Richard Swatton PATRON SPECIAL

    “Symbols move in and out of people’s lives as realities. To skirt through symbolism into real life and then back and forth, is the art of the symbol. Moving in and out, making sense of it, weaving tales around the astrological placement, that’s what we do with dreams, as well. And the underlying element is that this stuff is real. Real information, real guidance, whether it’s your dreams, whether it’s astrology” Mesmerising words from Richard Swatton, who was kind enough to give up his time to record with us during Pisces season.  This was a special episode featuring my lovely patrons, who normally enjoy taking part in the regular conversations on the Stellium Astrology Patreon page. Despite many technological issues with software and hardware failing me, this was a fun episode to record. Next time I will make sure I have better conferencing software!

    EP150 The Fascinating Story of Baby Reindeer: WARNING! Contains spoilers.

    TRIGGER WARNING: Stalking & R*pe   PLUS CONTAINS SPOILERS! Please don't continue reading/listening if you are yet to watch the show.   Everyone's talking about Baby Reindeer, so I thought it was time to join the conversation.   Of course, I am looking at things from an astrological edge, and when they gave specific dates in the show, I just had to note them down to take a look.   The show was launched on 11 April 2024, during a highly volatile and compelling period of planetary transits (eclipse season, Mercury retrograde, and the Jupiter–Uranus conjunction).   Unsurprisingly, the nature of the story is shocking, moving and helplessly fascinating. The themes of this dark drama really plug into the zeitgeist.    It is important to note I don't have accurate birth data for Richard Gadd who plays Donald Dunn a.k.a. Baby Reindeer, and the dates discussed during the show may be fictional dates, but that doesn't matter because I believe any dates mentioned/fabricated/mistakenly issued, always hold some sort of meaning or significance.   That said, social and generational planets are slower moving, so I think they give a general feel for a period in time, without the need for zooming in on the personal planets/details.   Chart details Richard Gadd 11 May 1989 Wormit Scotland *cast for noon   Dates mentioned in show Stalking Donald Dunn 24 August 2015 to 22 March 2017   Stalking Parents 06 June 2016 to 22 March 2017   Read my article for The Mountain Astrologer: Weapons of Mass Distraction - Astrodienst     📍Everything you need to know is here: https://www.stelliumastrology.com/links/

    EP145 The Inner Facing Eye: Secondary Progressions with Fernanda Paiva

    Something I’ve wanted to explore on this show for a very long time is a popular predictive technique called Secondary Progressions. I’ve always been intrigued but have spent most of my time focussing on other techniques because they came more naturally to me. So I decided to get my friend and astrological colleague, Fernanda Paiva, on the show to talk about this incredible predictive technique, while sharing the knowledge with you, too! Two phrases Fernanda used which were particularly evocative were “mining for meaning” and “the inward-facing eye” to describe the function and application of this fascinating topic. Have you used secondary progressions before and did you find them insightful? How did you apply them to your own chart and learning process? Tell me in the comments!   TIMESTAMPS 00:03 Intro 05:15 Secondary Progressions 08:21 Solar Arc vs SP 15:52 Progressed Lunar Return / Saturn Return 24:59 Progressed New Moon 33:38 Relationships/Synastry 42:31 SP in the 1st year of life 47:07 SP & Personal Planets 49:15 SP & Retrogrades RELATED Watch this episode https://youtu.be/AJeC_7SYaVA  Part 1 of Analysis, Imagination & Spotting Chart Themes with Fernanda Paiva https://youtu.be/Ph2oJ_F6GUc PART 2 of Analysis, Imagination & Spotting Chart Themes with Fernanda Paiva https://www.patreon.com/posts/patreons-only-2-53798821?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_link EP068 Frank C Clifford On Nailing Precise Forecasting with Solar Arc Pt 1 https://youtu.be/ZBA9cmq9xUg EP068 Astrologer Frank C Clifford Teaches Precise Forecasting with Solar Arc Directions Part 2 https://youtu.be/R4H3ws-zgWY Fernanda’s YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/@hitchhikingstars 📍Everything you need to know is here: https://www.stelliumastrology.com/links/   Fernanda’s YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/@hitchhikingstars Hitchhiking Stars by Fernanda Paiva https://www.fernandapaiva.co/ Website: www.fernandapaiva.co Instagram: @hitchiking_stars Facebook: @hitchhikingstars Twitter: @hitchhikingstar YouTube @hitchhikingstars Fernanda Paiva is a teacher and practicing astrologer, with a certificate from the London School of Astrology, a BA. in History, and the MA in Cultural Astronomy and Astrology from the University of Wales Trinity Saint David.
