We are delighted to introduce the first episode of an Astrology Series on the Mangu.tv podcast, with guest Robert Mitchell.

Robert Mitchell is a religious and Jungian scholar, a Western psychedelic lineage holder, an astrologer, a practical mystic, a podcaster, and a writer.  He received an undergraduate degree in Religious Studies from Syracuse University and a Masters in Counseling from The California Institute of Integral Studies. For thirty years, he has worked worldwide to strengthen people’s relationships with the transpersonal intelligence that animates their lives. He uses tools of Western esoterica that include astrology, psychedelics, meditation and dreaming.  His specific interest is working with the unique structure of the consciousness of the individual, while demythologizing the psychedelic experience, removing the need to fetishize it or make it something exotic. His motto is: “People don’t need to use more Paychedelics, they need to be more Psychedelic. 

In the first episode of this Astrology series, Robert introduces its origins, his work within Astrology and the people who influenced him. He discusses the significance of each person's birth chart and how one's life is mapped out at birth and is not random. 

Robert and Giancarlo pick two popular figures; Elon Musk and Taylor Swift. Robert discusses each birth chart and looks at how it informs the way that they move through the world. He explains in detail how planetary alignment at birth can create potential challenges and positive attributes in each birth chart.
