Hello and welcome to Embodied Astrology, a podcast and learning community where we explore the growing edges of astrology and its intersections with healing, arts, activism, relationships, and personal growth.

My name is Renee Sills, and this is your week ahead forecast. The audio you're about to hear is from this week's somatic space.
