In this conversation, Empress peels back the layers of our natal charts and discusses chart rulers, retrograde planets, and asteroid returns. She revisits the stories of Ceres (Demeter), Pallas (Athena), Juno (Hera), and Vesta (Hestia) and their influence on our personal mythologies. Empress also talks about Apophis, working with malefic asteroids, and humor as magick.You can learn more and connect with Empress Atlantis via her website, Instagram, or laugh with her over on X (formerly Twitter).
