Mel Priestley returns to the show to talk astrology, and I cop out on 2023 bingo - because I'm sick of predictions and perhaps the act of predicting itself. We go on a lot of fun tangents, too, as always.

He told me about the first experience working magic, and the results he achieved. He shared with me the story of finding and approaching his first teacher, and gave some advice for those looking to do just that. He told stories about working with spirits, and mistakes made along the way that lead to lessons. And also about the importance of divination practices to navigating progression in spiritual practices.
