About this listen

 Welcome to the outer rim of the zodiac, where queer chaos meets cosmic insight. Each episode, Veda asks spontaneous, often ridiculous, sometimes disturbingly profound astrology question at Lily, who then tries to answer it on the spot. Cold open. No prep. Pure space magic. We're talking real astrology, filtered through a feminist, neurodivergent, queer-as-hell lens, with plenty of laughter, tangents, cursing, and occasional existential dread.

    Episode 9 - Phobias, Family Charts & Themes of the Year
    Nov 26 2025
    In this episode, Veda opens with a deceptively simple question: How do phobias manifest in a birth chart? From there, we tumble into the cosmic genetics of family charts, why relatives often share strikingly similar placements, sometimes across multiple generations. Lily gives a quick crash course on what an ephemeris actually is and how astrologers use it, and then we dig into the big one: how to figure out the major theme of your next year (or any longer stretch of time) using astrology. And, naturally, we end with Veda calling Lily out for reading their recommended book at glacial speed… and Lily attempting to defend herself.

    Episode 8 - A Deep Dive into Business Charts
    Nov 12 2025
    In this episode, we turn the astrological lens on ourselves. Or rather, on our podcast’s TikTok account. Yep, even social media has a birth chart! We break down how to read charts for businesses and projects, using our own as a living example. From branding energy to viral potential, we explore what the stars say about online presence, creative direction, and a little bit of internet chaos.

    Episode 7 - A Deep Dive Into The MFC`s Birth Chart
    Oct 29 2025
    In this episode, we dive deep into the astrological birth chart of a fictional character from Veda’s novel, blending the art of astrology with the craft of storytelling. We explore how planetary placements, family history, and ancestral trauma shape both narrative and personality, revealing the uncanny ways fiction mirrors the stars. As we walk through the chart, we reflect on the tension between logic and intuition, science and magic, and how trauma and healing are written in both life and fiction. This isn’t just a reading, it’s a journey into the heart of character creation, the power of matriarchal lines, and the mysteries of fate.
