92. Punk Rockin' Astrology & Life with KP Kaszubowski of Lyric Threads Lab

Capricorn-rising KP Kaszubowski is a poet, filmmaker, and astrologer. In this episode she talks about how writing connected her to her body and how she discovered astrology as a powerful meaning-making practice she feels called to use with solemnity and ethical consideration. KP shares a lyrical essay she wrote and gives us all a sneak peak into her current work. We discuss what a punk-rock approach to astrology means and the grit to be found in gratitude.
