Welcome to More Magic: Barbault's Basket and Mamdani's Chart
These are the show notes for Episode 1 of the More Magic Podcast — the charts, the highlights, and the full listen below.
Barbault's Basket
Recorded the exact day this rare planetary alignment (Pluto/Jupiter/Uranus/Neptune all ~4°) went exact. French astrologer André Barbault called the accompanying Saturn-Neptune conjunction "the most benefic configuration of the century" — a harmonious meeting of opposites, an upward turn for humanity.
Who I am
Sag Sun, Aquarius Moon, Scorpio Rising, 4/1 Manifestor, third-generation astrologer (grandma and aunt both read charts by hand). Adult-diagnosed ADHD. Left astrology school to trust intuition over rigid technique.
Mamdani's chart
Leo Rising at 0°, Libra Sun, Aquarius Moon conjunct Saturn, Mars in Scorpio, Venus-Jupiter in Virgo, Taurus MC. Reads as fairness-driven, strategic, detail-oriented leadership.
