Celebrate Yourself Card Deck: Inspiring Self-Celebration

These 50 prompts inspire deeper self-connection and collective celebration, encouraging joy, reflection, and meaningful connection.

In this episode, Becky Mollenkamp chats with astrologer and feminist activist Babs Cheung about the powerful ways astrology can be used by business owners, especially women and non-binary entrepreneurs. They explore the intersection of feminism and astrology and how feminist astrology readings can help entrepreneurs avoid burnout, create sustainable businesses, and align their values with their business decisions. Babs explains the practical applications of astrology planning tools and how understanding your astrological chart can help you plan your business cycles and fiscal quarters.

This episode goes beyond the pop astrology you see in magazines, diving into the difference between pop astrology and real astrology and how astrology can actually be used for personal growth and activism. They also discuss the patriarchy’s role in shaping misconceptions about astrology and why embracing a self-centered approach can be a radical act of feminism.

Babs Cheung (she/her) is an astrologer, award winning writer, feminist thought leader and digital activist. Her forthcoming book details ways in which astrological transits mark an end to patriarchy (and other vehicles of oppression) through acts of activism (that don't cause burnout) tailored to your star sign. Additionally, she won't shut up about Mercury Retrograde and how it's the best time "to get good at something you suck at [doing]." and is obsessed with teaching clients how to plan their fiscal quarters according to their birth chart.
