With the new full moon being here we're revisiting our Big Blend Radio chat with Dr. Alicia Blando who discusses her book, “Open for Interpretation: A Doctor’s Journey into Astrology” (She Writes Press, June 2023).

In conjunction with Western medicine, Dr. Blando believes that the tenets of astrology can support a person’s health, wellbeing, and self-understanding, and can even offer insight into predispositions for certain diseases and illnesses.

Alicia Blando trained and practiced in the medical specialty of physical medicine & rehabilitation.

This curiosity was supported by what she learned about herself through the study of astrology. More: https://aliciablando.com/
