Episode 2: Astrology Unlocked, Our Top 3
Manage episode 479680786 series 3662264
What do your sun, moon, and rising signs really say about you—and can birth charts actually help you understand yourself better? In this episode of Andi & Mich, we’re getting curious (and a little cosmic) as we explore astrology from a grounded, real-life lens.
We share personal stories about how astrology has shown up in our lives—from watching Walter Mercado with our abuelita to late-night conversations about love, purpose, and identity. Then we break down our full Big Three (Sun, Moon, and Rising signs), reflect on what resonated (and what made us say “ouch, too real”), and laugh our way through the shadow sides of each sign.
Whether you’re a horoscope junkie, a skeptical spiritual dabbler, or just astrology-curious, this episode is packed with relatable insights, sisterly banter, and an honest look at how the stars might help us reconnect with who we are—and who we’re becoming.
✨ Topics We Explore:
- What astrology actually is (and isn’t)
- The difference between sun, moon, and rising signs
- How our cultural upbringing shaped our views on astrology
- Walter Mercado, retro Cosmo horoscopes & metaphysical bookstores
- Our Big Three: Aquarius, Scorpio, Taurus, Pisces, and Cancer placements
- The “shadow side” of each sign and how to work with it, not against it
- Using astrology as a tool for reflection, self-awareness, and connection
💫 This episode is for you if:
- You’re a 90s baby who grew up with horoscopes in Cosmo
- You’re secretly into astrology but low-key skeptical
- You’ve ever blamed Mercury Retrograde for everything
- You want to learn how your chart can deepen your self-understanding
- You’re ready to laugh, reflect, and maybe run your chart for your kid, too
🔮 Bonus: We share a super accessible astrology podcast rec for beginners and chat about how you can use your chart to deepen relationships with partners, friends, or even your teen.
