In this StarDate Susitna, the topics are the Moon’s social schedule, why her path is different up here, and Kathleen did feel brave enough to touch on astrology versus astronomy. A document Kathleen created to provide visual aids for understanding Precession of the Equinoxes, and why the Sun is not “in” the Zodiac constellation of your “sun sign”, is available below.
