Hot to Go
A summer of astrology, magic, and connection over the airwaves & in-person (who is she?)
An update for you today. Mars in Gemini style — rapid fire, what’s going on as in, where to find me. I’m hitting the road next week. East Coast, then the UK, Greece, and back in the UK again for my first international conference appearance. Work? Play? Yes. Such is the Gemini way of “why-not-both?”.
If you’re in the New York area, come to my talk and request an in-person consultation.

New York Tour, mid-August
Talk on the Floating MC
Tuesday, August 6 at 7 pm EDT
The choice of house system, ultimately a personal one, has grown so polarizing in today’s atmosphere, but it doesn’t have to be. Being polyamorous with house systems is our past, and our future. Learn how ancient astrologers like Valens borrowed techniques from multiple house systems to create holistic interpretations.

I will be making my first international conference appearance, this summer in the UK, with two talks:
The Orphic Sun and the Elements of the Soul
In the Orphic hymns, the Sun rings like a melody from youth, deeply familiar yet strange. Predating Hellenistic astrology, the hymns contemplate the Sun through even older ideas about fate, love, and the eternal soul. This talk explores the Orphics’ capacious solar archetype and its power for practice today.
Roots of the Planetary Joys
In Classical literature, the Planetary Joys are a widely attested but scantly explained scheme assigning each planet to a house of “rejoicing” (chaira). Multiple influences structure the joys, spanning mythology, observational astronomy, and relation to other schemes like the Exaltations, thus demonstrating the staggering syncretic deftness of our discipline’s forbearers.
While in the UK, I will also be attending the Faculty of Astrological Studies Summer School at Oxford.
I’ll also be visiting my friend Sabrina Monarch in her new abode in Crete! It will be my first time in Greece, and breathing the Mediterranean air that my ancestors breathed.
Sabrina is a brilliant astrologer who draws on multiple astrological lineages. Check out her K*ckstarter campaign: MAGIC OF THE SPHERES
Recent Podcast Appearances
WITHIN ORB: I joined astrology legend Jenn Zhart on her podcast, Within Orb, talking about the sociology and astrology of life, death, and the journey of the soul.
THE ASTROLOGY PODCAST: Did you catch my appearance on Chris Brennan’s podcast alongside my partner-in-mysticism, Kristin Mathis? We talk about the convergence of gods, starlore and poetry in the Orphic hymns, which may have turned out to be one of the key intellectual and spiritual ancestors of Hellenistic astrology.
I hope everyone has a summer of clarification on the path to meeting your soul’s true desire.
Yours in Earth and Starry Skies,
Drew
