Venus is our advertising campaign, the planet responsible for drawing people into our lives. Like a male peacock fanning its tail or a flower opening its petals, Venus asks our prospective admirers, lovers, buyers, and bosses: “Do you like what you see?” Venus doesn’t show us what we want. Venus shows us who’s responding to the signals we are putting out there. Signals that we may or may not be aware of. How many times have we found love when we weren’t looking for it? Pushed away the person that everyone else saw as [...]

Yet its appearance in Almanacs and dream interpretation manuals are responsible for the introduction of Astrology into America and its overall acceptance. This lecture traces the rise of popular Astrology from The Book of Knowledge (a pre-Revolutionary war occult periodical) to civil war publications to Evangeline Adams’s astrology booklets in the 1920s. Along the way we will examine the unique role that women played in the popularization of Astrology here in the United States (both as astrologers and mass market audience) and how Trash Astrology gave the American public [...]
