Happy new year! In 2024, Star Gays will be following the sun as it transits through the signs of the zodiac. Each month I will feature a Star Gay who has their sun in the sign of the season and to start us off we're going to talk about Capricorn goat Susan Sontag.

Sontag was a novelist, cultural critic, and public intellectual. Sontag embodied Capricorn's serious, determined, and melancholic nature. Her Capricorn and Virgo stelliums worked together to give her a sharp tongue and biting wit. In this episode we really break down the archetypes of Capricorn and Virgo.
