Ep. 189 Astrology as Language: How to Reimagine Your Life Through a Postcolonial Lens with Alice Sparkly Kat

In the intro, you'll hear some updates on the Feed Your Wild podcast and about a new 90 Day Akashic Mentorship: the Intuitive Healing Mentorship for Practitioners and Healers!

In this episode, we're speaking with Brooklyn-based astrologer Alice Sparkly Kat, aka Ace, and author of Post-Colonial Astrology. Their book offers an advanced look into politicized astrological history and application, and offers an explicitly queer, PoC and instersectional lens.

Astrology is an intersectional, political and magickal language with a cross-cultural history that informs our relationships to the planets. Exploring the origins of any system, such as astrology, is important in understanding how those very systems influence our experience and relationships.

In this chat, we explore astrology as a language, and how the reshaping of astrology as a language can reshape our experience and relationship to the cosmos and their influence upon our lives. We cover how to reframe your relationship with astrology and switching from a fatalistic/victim lens to a more empowering stance. We talk about why it's easy for people to accept unseen forces at work such as cell phones and internet communication, but have a challenging time "believing" in astrology.

Ace shares how they reconcile a postcolonial astrological framework with the more casual, pop, and less obviously political approach to astrology that's popular within the mainstream. We also get into personal reflections, including my personal Gemini north node experience and Ace's spot-on reflections. Ace has good advice for budding astrologers and astrology enthusiasts that are relevant in these emergent times.

There is so much in the conventional healthcare realms that is misaligned and the all-important spiritual and energetic components are missing - a huge gap in the healing process. I know if this resonates - you understand this, you're entrenched in that model and you want to bridge the spiritual with the scientific, the mystical with the practical, and ultimately to support others in awakening their inner healer... because ALL healing is self-healing.

As a healer, helper, practitioner - we are here to be guides and support to assist others in awakening that ability within themselves. If this sounds like the program for you, I encourage you to apply.
