In Part 1 of this four-part astrological deep dive, astrologer Kyle Pierce analyzes the birth chart of Ross Ulbricht, founder of the Silk Road — the dark web marketplace that revolutionized black market commerce and introduced the world to Bitcoin.
Was Ross a visionary libertarian and idealist who fought for freedom? Or a criminal kingpin who underestimated the consequences of confronting the U.S. government? This series uses traditional astrology, timing techniques, and psychological analysis to uncover how planetary placements, including Pisces Rising, Venus in Pisces, Mars and Saturn in Scorpio, and a 12th House Moon, reveal the inner architecture of one of the most controversial tech figures of the 21st century.
We ask:
🌒 What role did Ross’s Pisces Rising and Venus in the 1st House play in shaping his ideals?
🔥 Did Mars stationing retrograde in Scorpio point to an inevitable confrontation?
🪐 Was his Moon in Aquarius in the 12th a prelude to imprisonment?
🏛️ And how does Saturn in the 9th reflect his deep distrust of authority?
Join us as we map out the planetary signatures of ambition, idealism, hubris — and possible redemption.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
