05/01/21 • 39 min

This episode's "Big Topic" is that big bad werewolf known as Mercury retrograde. Or is it a wolf in sheep's clothing? Find out in this episode, where Andy tells you what Mercury retrograde is *really* about -- including the benefits you can get from it (yes, really!), what it means if Mercury is retrograde in your birth chart, the "dos" and "don'ts" during a Mercury retrograde period, and how to navigate a new beginning if you have no choice but to start it when Mercury is retrograde. In the "Eye on the Stars" segment, Andy analyzes the chart of a Taurus global superstar: George Clooney. And, in the "Ask Andy" segment, a listener seeks Andy's insight on why he experiences Venus retrograde periods in such an emotionally draining and intense fashion.

Renowned dancer and choreographer — and former teen pop star — Aaron Renfree (Sagittarius sun, Sagittarius moon, Scorpio rising) joins Andy for an in-depth interview and birth chart reading. In this candid conversation, Aaron talks about being catapulted to fame with UK pop group S Club Juniors at the age of 13, growing up away from his parents, and having to restart his professional life at the age of 17 after the high-charting pop band came to an end. Aaron and Andy discuss the components of Aaron’s chart that, over the years, helped him achieve significant professional success in the world of dance and choreography (his credits include London’s West End, The Saturdays, Taylor Swift, and the UK’s X-Factor Tour). Aaron also speaks candidly about some of the personal struggles he has endured, the ups and downs he has navigated in show business, and how Instagram is not a true reflection of one’s reality. Lastly, Andy takes a look at Aaron's astrological year ahead, which includes a major, once-in-a-lifetime Pluto transit as well as both Saturn and Jupiter activating one of his chart’s sensitive angles.
