About this listen

 Welcome to the outer rim of the zodiac, where queer chaos meets cosmic insight. Each episode, Veda asks spontaneous, often ridiculous, sometimes disturbingly profound astrology question at Lily, who then tries to answer it on the spot. Cold open. No prep. Pure space magic. We're talking real astrology, filtered through a feminist, neurodivergent, queer-as-hell lens, with plenty of laughter, tangents, cursing, and occasional existential dread.

  • Episode 12: Healing from trauma, Hypatia & The Furies

    Episode 12: Healing from trauma, Hypatia & The Furies
    Jan 21 2026
    In this episode, we explore how trauma healing can show up in astrological transits, and how longer cycles can reflect processes of integration, recovery, and deep personal change. We talk about the saturn half return and the 6th house/12th house axis once more. From there, we turn to asteroid astrology and history, diving into Hypatia, her life, her legacy, and what her asteroid can symbolize in a birth chart. We then call in the Furies, examining their asteroid and how themes of righteous anger, justice, and protection can manifest astrologically.

  • Episode 11: Energy healing recap, Rest, Trauma & Abuse

    Episode 11: Energy healing recap, Rest, Trauma & Abuse
    Jan 7 2026
    In this episode, we circle back to our recent bonus episode on energy healing. From there, we move into gentler cosmic territory: how you can use a birth chart and transits to recognize when you need more rest, and what rest actually looks like for you on a personal, embodied level. A big part of this conversation lives at the intersection of astrology, trauma, and healing, how the nervous system speaks through the chart, and how timing can support recovery instead of pushing productivity. We close with a careful, necessary discussion about ethics: whether, when, and under what circumstances it’s okay to look at the chart of someone who has hurt you, including abusive people, and what responsibility astrologers have when navigating that territory.
