Astrology in Australia


Traversing a new territory of shifting sands and warping terrains. From astrology to the Greek pantheon of gods/goddess evocations to planetary correspondences for each day of the week…

Sunday ~ Sun
Monday ~ Moon
Tuesday ~ Mars
Wednesday ~ Mercury
Thursday ~ Jupiter
Friday ~ Venus
Saturday ~ Saturn
