In episode 232 astrologers Kelly Surtees, Austin Coppock, and Chris Brennan meet up in the studio to give an overview of the astrological forecast for December of 2019, which features Jupiter moving into Capricorn at the start of a one year transit through that sign.
This month’s forecast also features a solar eclipse in Capricorn, a Venus-Saturn-Pluto conjunction, and a comparatively light Full Moon in Gemini.
This episode was record in person in our studio in Denver, during Austin and Kelly’s week long trip around the third week of November.
Our experiment last month worked out so well with doing the forecast segment first and then the discussion later that we decided to make that a permanent thing from now on.
In the first part of the episode we focus on the astrological forecast for December, then there is a break and Leisa Schaim joins us to talk about this month’s auspicious electional chart, and then after that we transition into some casual discussion topics.
The main discussion topic we focused on at the end was how old Kelly and Austin were when they first started doing consultations, and whether they think that an aspiring astrologer should wait until their Saturn return, which was a controversial discussion topic that we covered earlier this month in episode 229 titled Practicing Astrology Before Your Saturn Return.
This episode was recorded with a live audience of patrons who joined us through our monthly webinar format, which is one of the benefits of supporting the production of the show through The Astrology Podcast page on Patreon.

I mean, you could always just drop me a tip through PayPal using my email address: astrologue@gmail.com. Thank you!
Jupiter just ingressed into my sixth and I was struck with some sort awful stomach flu following some painful experiences over the weekend with my love whose Sun is 2 degrees Cap. We were close and happy and out of nowhere, he tells me some painful things and I am overcome with anxiety and fall ill. Hoping this Jupiter in the sixth transit isn’t as bad as it seems it will be…
Loved seeing you all together. Have been following you for three years and you feel like old friends. <3
The last part of this podcast with the tips re studying astrology, finding courses, and sticking with teachers whose approach resonates was timely for me. Great advice and suggestions, thank you.
which page layout are you using from Solar Fire. I enjoyed this episode, thanks D
Which page layout are you using in Solar Fire? Great information!! Thanks, D
Nice to see you all together. I have been pondering – and in review of the last ingress of Jupiter into Cap years ago and knowing what I face this time, aside from the critical consideration of other long term transits I see my self once again holding onto hope in the face of reality – so the eye to the future bit you all alluded to really resonates. The reward is down the road, the hope is in the present. Thank you all for your insights.
The three of you have great chemistry. I am not an astrologer, but have enjoyed learning about it and listening to various professionals. Since I am not an official “student” or professional astrologer, I don’t know if I am your target audience. That being said, while I thoroughly enjoyed listening to your podcast, I found myself wanting to hear explanations regarding some of the planetary positions and alignments that were mentioned. There were several instances where your conversation was with one another, but any audience members without sufficient knowledge of astrology was left out. Specifically, it usually happened when “the vibe”, or “the energy” of a particular aspect or planetary/sign combination was mentioned in an off-hand sort of way. It would have been great if somebody stopped and described, or explained, what “the vibe” or “energy” was like.
Thanks for doing this, though. I hope this does not come off as picky, but if it is, my apologies.
Best wishes!
My one and only grandson was born on the meatgrinder eclipse on July 17th. Birth induced in the light of the eclipse, moon on the void, (resulting in C section) and you know the gnarly aspects…He had a major heart defect (TGA) which required immediate surgery. His sun is 24 degrees cancer. Now they have to do another surgery to repair a stenosis from the first surgery. It is scheduled for Jan 7th…three days before the next eclipse in the waxing moon. I notice the conjunction of Saturn and pluto is at around 24 degrees Capricorn. He is adorable (rising sign 0 deg libra) and smart. He has a mars/ uranus square with the moon at 3 deg aquarius involved. Can you possibly figure a way that this is going to turn out okay? Oh and he has slight hemophilia. I have T pluto conjunct my mercury (22 deg cap) Am I over worrying or just preparing (somehow) for the worst? The tarot reading had every stupid sword and nasty card come up. i.e. tower, devil, nine of swords, ace of swords, three of swords…his little heart has been stabbed enough already. The T node is conjunct my descendent exactly. (8 deg cancer) ANY ENCOURAGEMENT WOULD BE APPRECIATED. PS love your episodes
