Hello and welcome to today's episode of the

Astrology Hub podcast. I'm Amanda Puwalsch the founder of

Astrology Hub and the host of this podcast. And I'm thrilled to be bringing

you today's episode and even more thrilled that our guest

Colin said that he felt like he could be his whole real self in our interview.

Before he jumped on the call he wasn't sure if that was going to happen.

Now he thanked me for that, but I really believe the thank you belongs to you.

We have such an incredible, warm, open, and embracing community at

astrology hub you're curious instead of judgmental which makes this a safe space for all of us and that's what I knew when I was asking

Colin the questions that he was answering today.

So thank you for being that person, for truly listening,

and for being part of our mission to advance the conversation of what

astrology is, can be, and exploring all the ways it can help us to each live more purposeful lives.

Now, if you have ever felt that some of the binary categories of traditional astrology don't represent you or don't fully land for you as quote unquote the truth or if you've ever felt drawn to astrology as a whole but wondered if there could be more flexibility in some of the interpretations of the planet and

placement and what it all means.

You are going to love today's episode with Colin Badell.

Colin is an extraordinary astrologer whose work explores how we can be inclusive around unique gender

and sexual identities, creating community for people who feel limited,

restricted, or left out of the mainstream conversations in astrology. He wrote a book called Queer Cosmos, which

explores the conversation around how to find worthiness and relationship

intelligence and astrology if you have in the past felt alienated by some of the

categories. Colin, like by some of the categories.
