Description: Tapping into the political power of magic and astrology for social community and personal transformation. In a cross - cultural approach to understanding astrology as a magical language Alice Sparkly Kat unmasks the political power of astrology showing how it can be channeled as a force for collective healing and liberation. Too often magic and astrology are divorced from their potency and cultural contexts: co - opted by neoliberalism used as a force of oppression or distilled beyond recognition into applications that belie their individual and collective power. By looking at the symbolic and etymological histories of the sun moon Saturn Venus Mercury Mars and Jupiter we can trace and understand the politics of magic - - and challenge our own practices interrogate our truths and reshape our institutions to build better frameworks for communities of care. Fearless radical and fresh Sparkly Kat's Postcolonial Astrology ushers in a new wave of astrology revival refusing to apologize for its magickism and connecting its power to the spirituality and politics we need now. Intersectional inclusive and geared towards queer and POC communities it uses our historical and collective constructs of the planets sun and moon to re - chart our subconscious history redefine the body in the world and assert our politics of the personal in astrology and all things.
