Horoscopes can be the deciding factor in pursuing a love interest, they build and break relationships, they’re even used as justification to one’s action. We have put a lot of value into horoscopes even when it comes to spirituality with retrogrades and the behavior/placement of the planets. However, in conversations on religion, horoscopes become quite controversial. Join us as we delve into how.

Join me and some special guest business owners and clients as we discuss the small businesses, misconceptions, policies, and personal experiences.
