In this episode, I'm setting aside the heavy topics to talk about something lighter: wine, place, and how your astrocartography can guide you to the bottles (and regions) that resonate most with your chart.
Astrocartography Basics
- How to read your astrocartography map on astro.com (it's free!)
- What those lines and bubbles actually mean
- Why AC, DC, IC, and MC angles matter when choosing wine
The Planetary Rulers of Wine
- Venus: The primary ruler of wine, vineyards, and savoring pleasure
- Jupiter: Celebration, abundance, and knowing your limits
- Moon: Soil memory, lineage, and emotional resonance
- Sun: Vitality, recognition, and confidence
- Neptune: Mysticism, ritual, and (watch out for) escapism
How to Use Astrocartography for Wine
- Find wines from your Venus line for sensual, slow enjoyment
- Jupiter line wines for celebration and expansion
- Moon line wines for emotional grounding and nostalgia
- Sun line wines for confidence and achievement
- Why AC lines are the gold standard
My Personal Wine Journey
- How I realized I was drinking California wines (my Saturn line) during my darkest period
- My Saturn Return and sobriety journey
- How I now choose wines from my Venus AC (South America), Sun lines (New Zealand, Portugal), and Moon/Venus (South of France)
- The South African Neptune wine that literally went bad (a perfect metaphor)
