Dan and Scarlet open the episode with an Astrology and Tarot forecast for the week of October 28 to November 3, 2019, followed by a very special Halloween storytelling episode, Ghosts in the Garden.  Over the course of two Sundays, we threw a two part campfire event in the back yard of Hostel Earphoria, a DIY arts collective in the Logan Square neighborhood of Chicago, where attendees shared their spookiest paranormal stories.  This episode is a compilation of some of the scariest stories that were recorded over the two nights.  Thanks to everyone who attended and contributed to this great event!  Our patrons will get a hefty extension with extra material, so if you would like more Halloween goodness, you can become a patron for only $5 a month to get our episode extensions.

Dan and Scarlet open the episode with and astrology and Tarot forecast for the week of September 23, 2019, to September 29, 2019, followed by part two in this THREE part series of Astrology 101.  Dan and Scarlet begin with a quick review of part one (make sure to listen to this one first!), and then go right into the explanation of what a chart actually is.  After laying out the chart itself, the hosts cover the basics of the twelve houses, how the houses exist in the whole sign house system, how the houses rotate and shift throughout the day, what the symbolism of the twelve houses are, plus how to get meaning of planets in signs+houses.  This is slightly more advanced than part one, but we're sure you're going to love it!
