Episode 7 : Why I'm Obsessed with Astrology
Podcast Episode Description: Why I’m Obsessed with Astrology
Welcome to Inner Space with Mandy! In this episode, we’re diving into a topic that’s been a constant in my life and continues to captivate me: astrology. It’s a relationship that’s ever-evolving, mysterious, and endlessly fascinating. From my early days sneaking onto sketchy dial-up websites with pixelated zodiac graphics, to using astrology as a profound tool for self-discovery, this obsession has shaped my life in ways I never expected.
I’ll share the story of how astrology became a lifeline during my quarter-life crisis (why wait for mid-life?) and how it continues to guide me today. Whether it’s tracking Saturn’s lessons, leaning into Venus’s grace, or navigating Pluto’s shadowy depths, astrology is my ultimate cosmic GPS—whispering, “Stop being stubborn and go with the flow, Mandy.”
We’ll also talk about why weekly horoscopes aren’t the whole story (hint: you’re a constellation, not just your sun sign), the power of progressed moon cycles, and how astrology goes beyond the “cute stuff” into the rich, layered metaphors of life. Plus, I’ll touch on Jungian astrology and how it adds depth by uncovering the psychological and archetypal layers of a chart.
Astrology isn’t just something I do—it’s who I am. Over the past year, I’ve found new and meaningful ways to share this passion, from creating natal chart reports as gifts, to diving into life paths and transits with strangers-turned-friends, to answering your full moon DMs (because yes, the house the moon lands in does matter more than the generic advice you’re reading online).
This episode is all about embracing astrology as a tool for understanding ourselves, navigating life’s mysteries, and fostering curiosity, compassion, and maybe a little humor along the way.
If you’re ready to dive deeper into your own chart or just curious about how the stars influence your life, reach out. Whether it’s a natal chart reading, a transit deep dive, or a conversation about where the moon is hitting your chart this month, I’d love to share this cosmic magic with you.
The stars have your back—and so do I.
