Hacking Astrology Sean Pacheco

Hey raindrops! Bramstrology and I linked up to talk ALL about Saturn! Who is Saturn? How do we look at Saturn? What are the cycles of Saturn and how can we best deal with them? Check out this podcast to hear all about our perspective as practiced astrologers.

In this finale episode for season 1, I go over why I stopped posting weekly, go into my health situation, my thoughts on how the podcast has performed, my new ideas for the future, and what I am focusing on in terms of content creation! A short one, but just to update you all and end Season 1 of Hacking Astrology. Thank you for listening!

Continuing on from part one, Alyssa Sharpe, aka TheDivineVenus, and I chatted more about the applied practice of astrology and when it crosses the lines. We discuss Saturn retrograde, its rhetoric in the social media community, and how to look at important transits like this. We also talked about the ethics behind looking at celebrity charts and take a look at Johnny Depp's and Amber Heard's synastry and charts as an example of how to look at charts responsibly. We talk about the current situation of astrology and our takes on it and so much more! 

This week, I was joined by one of my astrology teachers and mentors, someone who helped me get into astrology, Alyssa Sharpe, aka TheDivineVenus. Alyssa is one of the OG content creators in the astrology community, and once we became friends and realized we had flipped conjunct lunar nodes, we knew we had to get her on the podcast. In this first part, I interview Alyssa about her life story from birth to her future. We talk about her origins in the church and how that fueled her passion for astrology. We discuss her marriage and divorce, and we get into her experience of fame on Youtube and dealing with being "canceled" multiple times. 

In our third episode, I am discussing toxic capitalism in astrology and how we, as an astrology community, eternalize capitalism through certain perspectives we have on signs, houses, and planets. I talk about capitalism present in the tenth, sixth, and second house, the houses of money in your chart. I also talk about the historical framing of astrology to be capitalistic. What is your purpose? Is it career? Or is it your liberation?

It's all about love this week! Astrologer and friend of mine, Jojo Kelley, linked up with me to talk about the astrology of love and the social/cultural dynamics surrounding it. We spilled tea on our experiences having large platforms on astrology TikTok and how we use astrology as professional astrologers. We talked about the boundaries that someone should have when using astrology in their love life. We also discussed how astrology proves the existence of the LGBTQIA+ community. Check it out and hear our unique perspective on the astrological concepts of love, such as synastry charts and compatibility.
