Watt and T. Susan Chang (Part 1)","description":"The new year is upon us! Once again, I have invited friends to help me try to forecast the future. Here is the exciting part: I am joined by my two very amazing friends, T. Susan Chang and Andrew B. Watt! Together, we create a forecast for 2021 using astrology from Andrew and Tarot cards from Susie.\n\n2020 was a rolling pile of crap, set aflame in a giant dumpster painted like a TARDIS, and when Andrew and I did our forecast last year, we were far too optimistic, even when the cards and charts showed us some scary stuff. This time, hopefully we are all more realistic.\n\nPart 1 of the Forecast covers the first half of 2021, from January to June.\n\nNote that there are two special take-aways from this episode:\n\n\nAll of us are offering a 20% discount on readings through January 5th with the code BIGFLUSH-20 and you can find links to all of our divination offerings below.\nThere is a PDF document with charts and cards that goes along with this episode and part 2. You can get access to it by becoming a Patreon supporter of the Arnemancy Podcast, the Fortune's Wheelhouse Podcast, or Andrew B. Watt.\n\n\nAndrew B. Watt\n\nAndrew Watt is an astrologer, poet and artist living in western Massachusetts. He works in textiles, wood and words to produce objects for practical magic and mysterious practicality, and seeks the honest wisdom found in the life of an artisan.\n\n\nMain website\nAn Astrological Almanac for 2021\nPatreon account\nAmazon author page\nEtsy website\nTwitter handle\nTumblr handle\n\n\nT.
