Summary
Karlyn Bradley and Renee Sills join to discuss their upcoming workshop series Astrology & Activism, which begins March 21st. Nodding to their charts and upbringings, Karlyn and Renee each share their activist roots and what continues to motivate their work in the world. They explore accountability, relational repair, and community care as important activist work. Renee posits that astrology (and Saturn, in particular) shows us that there is a unique role for each of us to play in the reimagining and reshaping of our world. And Karlyn reminds us that all roles are needed, no matter the size or scale.

Karlyn Bradley (they/them) is a Black, Fat, Queer, Femme, with degrees in Political Science and Gender and Women's Studies from the University of Arizona. Karlyn is a scholar, theorist, community organizer, artist and educator. They have been able to use and expand their knowledge of Intersectional Feminist Theory to create programming that educates and empowers folks around topics of Race, Gender, Sexual Orientation and Power Dynamics. Their studies in Political Science and Gender and Women’s Studies at The University of Arizona have also shaped and influenced their ability to understand, critique and analyze policy through a critical race feminist lens.
In 2021, they used their skillset to found The High Priestess Consulting Company LLC (HPCC), which aims to help individuals, communities and organizations develop their understandings of systemic, political and social challenges through the use of workshops and trainings. The HPCC specializes in helping people connect with their own power, just like the high priestess in the Tarot, we remind people of the things that we have always known intuitively and facilitate coming back to ourselves and reconnecting with that power.
When they are not doing Community work Karlyn likes to hang out with their friends, eating and cooking a good meal, watching movies. They also like to work on their Podcasts Beneath The Surface. Writing poetry, drawing, living their dream as an Amateur Top Model and watching Scandal. Karlyn is Southern California born currently residing in Tucson, Arizona which is the ancestral lands of the Tohono O’Odham and Pascua Yaqui People.
