Episode Description
Before the invention of the telescope, only the celestial bodies visible to the naked eye were used in astrology. Since the late 18th century, discoveries of new planets, asteroids, centaurs, trans-Neptunian and other objects in our solar system have been increasing the potential cast of characters that can be used in the horoscope. The feminine earth sign of Virgo is thought by many to be ruled by the asteroids. Using Virgo’s analytical skill, classification ability, and powers of synthesis we can use the asteroids in our horoscopes to gain a more perfect understanding of ourselves. Hear our guest, astrologer Jessica Adams explain why modern astrology is not complete unless we include the asteroids! Who are they? What archetypes do they represent in the Roman/Latin family tree? How do they round out the story of our horoscope and increase our self-understanding? Find out from Jessica which asteroids to include in your horoscope, and where you can find information about them.

Janey McCarthy, MEd, left her technology career behind to become a Jungian Karmic Astrologer after discovering what Carl Jung had confirmed: The natal chart is a sacred, geometrically perfected personal database. Professional recognition as an astrologer and writer came when the website Planetwaves.net chose her article ‘The Silence Between the Words’, from 500 submissions, for the 2014 Annual Edition of Listen. She offers workshops and presentations, and counsels her astrology mentors, peers and clients from the east coast.
Mary Jo Wevers, PhD “re-discovered” astrology late in life, and found it came to her intuitively and easily. An enthusiastic and inspired astrologer for 15 years, she counsels clients, teaches classes and gives workshops and seminars on special topics in astrology. She writes a newsletter and has a blog on her web site, MaryJoWevers.com. She is a featured speaker at local metaphysical schools and churches and has been a conversation leader in the Northwest Astrology and Tarot Salon.
