Dealing with Difficult Chart Placements ft. Maxine Twigg

In this week’s episode, I am speaking with my friend and fellow astrologer, Maxine Twigg. We talk about our shared difficult chart placements of Chiron, Saturn, and Mars. We discuss how our relationships to these placements have evolved over time, and also touch upon Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, Mars retrogrades, and how we navigate other tricky transits.
