Astro Ecologies - DAM EP. 20

What if we stopped thinking about the zodiac signs as lists of personality traits and started thinking about them as living environments? In this episode of the Denver Astrology Meetup podcast, we’re joined by Sara (@the_divine_field) to explore Astrology Sign Ecologies; a poetic and ecological approach to understanding the zodiac signs. Sara invites us to look beyond familiar astrological keywords and consider the landscapes, climates, animals, resources, adaptations, and environmental conditions that can illuminate the symbolism of each sign. What kind of world does a particular archetype inhabit? What does it need to survive? What allows it to flourish? And what can the natural world teach us about astrology? Drawing from her background in poetry, divination, and her sensual way of seeing the world, Sara explores the zodiac as something alive and interconnected with the environments around us. In this conversation, we discuss: 🌿 The zodiac through an ecological lens 🌎 Landscape, environment, and astrological symbolism 🦋 Animals and their habitats as archetypal imagery 🌱 Adaptation, survival, and the conditions that allow life to flourish ☀️ The relationship between seasonality and zodiacal symbolism 🪐 How ecology can deepen our understanding of all twelve signs ✨ What happens when we begin looking for astrology in the natural world Sara writes about astrology, poetry, and divination in her Substack, The Wherewithall, where she explores the zodiac through a distinctly poetic perspective. Whether you’re a practicing astrologer, a student of astrology, interested in traditional or archetypal astrology, or simply curious about the relationship between astrology and the natural world, we hope this conversation gives you a new way to look at the zodiac.
