Orbital Nonsense - A Space Magic Podcast

In this episode, we dive deep into the astrological birth chart of a fictional character from Veda’s novel, blending the art of astrology with the craft of storytelling. We explore how planetary placements, family history, and ancestral trauma shape both narrative and personality, revealing the uncanny ways fiction mirrors the stars. As we walk through the chart, we reflect on the tension between logic and intuition, science and magic, and how trauma and healing are written in both life and fiction. This isn’t just a reading, it’s a journey into the heart of character creation, the power of matriarchal lines,...

This episode starts with a very Veda question: why are they obsessed with learning new languages, but terrible at sticking to them? We dig into how language learning styles show up astrologically, and what their chart says about motivation, memory, and chaos.

Then we shift into astro-health mode: how can you track transits to understand flare-ups and fluctuations in chronic illness?
Finally, we compare the charts of a toxic person and a healed one, exploring how some placements can manifest as disaster or growth depending on one’s level of self-awareness.

Somewhat educational, slightly unhinged, as always.

This week we’re joined by our friend Alyssa, aka the Musical Medium, who brings the kind of questions only she could ask. Why do men get obsessed with her so fast? Can you spot a serial killer in a birth chart (and should you even try)? We also dig into how ADHD can show up astrologically, before turning to the big relational question: how do you know if you’ll actually get along with someone? Expect laughter, side-eye, and a healthy dose of cosmic chaos.

In this episode, we call on the Muses — literally. Each of the nine Greek Muses has an asteroid, and we dive deep into their myth, their magic, and where they show up in Veda’s chart. Then we turn the spotlight on our friendship, tracing how the Muses weave through our synastry and what that says about inspiration, creativity, and cosmic partnership. Mythology meets astrology, with plenty of queer chaos in between.
