Postcolonial Astrology w— Alice Sparkly Kat

Alice Sparkly Kat approaches astrology as an intersectional + political practice, and they want to widen our star thinking so we can build new relationships with astrology, one another + ourselves. Their new book Postcolonial Astrology, serves as a history and toolkit, decoding the planets from a postcolonial perspective, and it's now available for purchase.


we discuss

  • intersecting postcolonial thoughts + critical race theory with astrology

  • the tension between imagining post-colonialism and creating a false utopia

  • Saturn + power dynamics

  • magic in our mundane tasks + experiences

  • Queer fluidity as its own yearning

  • the kinds of stories and epiphanies that show up in sessions with others

  • how we mythologize gender

  • the idea of Asia + the beginning of the industrial complex
