💥https://linktr.ee/thedarkmattershowTHE MONEY MAP™ IS NOW OPEN! 8/1-8/28. FIRST COME FIRST SERVE.My Thesis: Uranus is the Rick James of astrology.It's the planet that doesn't give a fuck about your carefully constructed plans, your timelines, your traditions, or your five-year strategy. Uranus is the trickster. The disruptor. The cosmic alarm clock that goes off in the middle of the night because it has decided now is the time to wake your ass up.In this episode, I explain why I started calling myself the Rick James of astrology—and why, upon further reflection, Uranus may have earned the title first.We're talking about the fine line between genius and madness, creative chaos, and what happens when you stop trying to make yourself—or your work—more palatable. We get into Uranus versus Saturn, the tension between breaking the rules and creating structure, and why the future requires us to question the old rules we're still using to interpret it.I also talk about the Aquarius North Node, the future, magic, and why I'm interested in bringing in asteroids, centaurs, Kuiper Belt objects, and other less conventional astrological tools rather than pretending the traditional chart tells us everything we need to know.Because sometimes the thing that looks chaotic is actually the thing trying to move you forward.And sometimes you just have to eat five popsicles and see what happens.In this episode:Why I call myself the Rick James of astrologyThe unapologetic, irreverent energy of UranusUranus as the trickster and cosmic disruptorThe tension between Uranus and SaturnThe fine line between genius and madnessWhy creativity and chaos aren't always oppositesThe Aquarius North Node and the futureWhy we need to question old astrological rulesBringing asteroids, centaurs, and Kuiper Belt objects into the conversationMoving from the old paradigm into the newThis is astrology with the gloves off.
