I’m experimenting with a new format: VIDEO ESSAYS!!! | WATCH NOW ⤵︎
✍️ Some context:
I’ve been doing a ton of podcasts lately, and one of the questions I’ve been getting the most is, “What is your love story with Astrology?”
Everyone has one. The hippie parents. The childhood obsession. The uncle, or the shaman, or the local witch. I didn’t have any of that.
It was just me, and my f*cked up, traditional, Chinese Malaysian family.
There’s a lot more that I get into in the video, but here’s the main point —
One year ago today, I was starting day 1 of Astrology school. 📖
One year later, I just finished recording a podcast episode as an ‘expert’ guest, talking through the basics of Astrology: what it is, what a natal chart is, what the houses are, etc. All the things I take for granted and talk about everyday and use in my job now . . . are things that I was only formally learning about for the first time, a year ago. 🤯🤯🤯
I felt so moved by this realization that I ended up recording a 10-minute video essay. In it, I tell the story of how I found my way to Astrology —
— and how it helped me find my way back to myself. 🥹 ⌇
I am so grateful that you’re here. When I first started out on this journey, I had no idea what it would even look like. All I knew — and hoped, and prayed for — is that I would have like-minded comrades with me on the journey.
Thank you for making my dreams come true.
If you feel moved by this, as always, I’d love to receive your words in return. ⤵︎
Love,
Gwen x

I loved watching this Gwen! So beautiful hearing about the journey that got you to astrology especially since you had no prior background with anything woo woo ~ it just goes to show that if something is meant to find you then it will 😌🌌✨and to follow the spark when something lights you up like astrology did for you in such a magical way 🌠 ...a tiny spark that made you question “I wonder what’s here” and boom now look at where it’s led you! A profesh star gazer and astro reader!! Truly magical, wonderful, beautiful 💗
