About this episode
In episode 232 astrologers Kelly Surtees, Austin Coppock, and Chris Brennan meet up in the studio to give an overview of the astrological forecast for December of 2019, which features Jupiter moving into Capricorn at the start of a one year transit through that sign. This month's forecast also features a solar eclipse in Capricorn, a Venus-Saturn-Pluto conjunction, and a comparatively light Full Moon in Gemini. This episode was record in person in our studio in Denver, during Austin and Kelly's week long trip around the third week of November. Our experiment last month worked out so well with doing the forecast segment first and then the discussion later that we decided to make that a permanent thing from now on. In the first part of the episode we focus on the astrological forecast for December, then there is a break and Leisa Schaim joins us to talk about this month's auspicious electional chart, and then after that we transition into some casual discussion topics. The main discussion topic we focused on at the end was how old Kelly and Austin were when they first started doing consultations, and whether they think that an aspiring astrologer should wait until their Saturn return, which was a controversial discussion topic that we covered earlier this month in episode 229 titled Practicing Astrology Before Your Saturn Return.
