Episode description

Ingredients:

this envelope has been stargazing and has found herself at your door.

often we may feel like the most difficult person to get to know is ourselves. this is true for a lot of us! and one of the places we may turn to could be astrology, tarot readings, or personality tests and quizzes. at the centre of it, maybe it's because we just want to know who we are. we want to feel known and be understood. we may also simply want to Know. still, where do we draw the line? are there defects with these spaces? what's just for fun and what isn't so fun?

- what is it about astrology charts and personality typings that makes us curious?

- what are the shadows that appear when these labels are used to make assumptions and generalisations?

- what were some of /your/ thoughts with astrology?

- !!! still! what's an alternative to these serious 'tests' that can be harmless fun?
