Astrologer, Musician, and Hiker Bruce Scofield.
On episode twelve of the Star Love Podcast we welcome astrologer Bruce Scofield. I’m thrilled to have Bruce on to discuss his wide ranging interests including different forms of astrology and music. We talk about how he moved from playing trumpet to rock music, ultimately becoming an astrologer after seeing the accuracy of some personal transits. From traditional astrology to correlating weather patterns with Saturn transits, Bruce is one of the most original and learned astrologers you will find.

Link to Bruce’s writings on Natural Astrology, the branch of astrology more concerned with larger forces of nature rather than individual human beings and their horoscopes.
Link to One Reed Publications, Bruce’s extensive website for all things astrology and Mesoamerican Astrology. You can get a free Maya-Aztec personality report that, I have to say, especially in a pressing, divinatory moment, is spot on!
Below is Bruce’s book on Election Astrology, or the astrology of selecting an opportune moment to start something. Also his other book mentioned in the podcast. Last, Margaret Atwood’s book Surfacing provides a literary path to some of the concepts explored in the podcast.
