0:00.0	Welcome to Ghost of a Podcast. I'm your host, Jessica Lignato. I'm an astrologer, psychic medium, and animal communicator, and I'm going to give you your weekly horoscope and no bullshit, mystical advice for living your very best life.
0:16.4	Lucy, welcome to the podcast. What would you like reading about?
0:20.5	All right. Thank you so much for having me, Jessica. I'm going to read my question,
0:24.8	and it goes like this. I have been sober in a member of AA for almost five years at the end of May.
0:31.2	Congratulations. Thank you so much. I've made almost all of my amends with the big exception being to my mother-in-law.

1:22.7	adore your work, Jessica. Thank you. That's very sweet. And I want going to share your birth info. That's cool, right?
1:28.3	Yep.

1:30.3	Okay.
1:31.3	October 16, 1990 in Lincoln, Nebraska at 5.20 p.m.
1:33.3	Let's dive in.
1:35.3	Okay, I have a couple contextualizing questions.
1:37.3	So you've been sober for five years.
