In episode 361, astrologer Nick Dagan Best joins Chris Brennan in studio to talk about using astrology to study different generational cohorts of people using slow-motion planetary cycles.
During the episode, we talk about the ways in which astrologers use the slower-moving outer planets to delineate entire generations of people, such as Pluto’s decades-long transit through the zodiac signs.
We also get to know other outer planets like Uranus and Neptune and how their aspects or configurations change with each other and can help describe entire generations of people.
Later we will touch on the fact that there are some internal planetary cycles that change slowly over generations, such as the Venus retrograde cycle, which takes decades to slowly move from one sign to another.
