Your favorite witches take a deep dive into the astrology scandal during the Reagan era.
Joan Quigley, a San Francisco astrologist, met Nancy Reagan in the 1970s. After Ronald Reagan became president, and after an attempt on his life, Nancy asked Quigley if she could have foreseen, and possibly prevented, the assassination attempt. From then on, Quigley worked for the Reagans for 7 years. Quigley gave astrological advice on a regular basis and spoke with Nancy over the phone. Nancy kept this decision on the low down. Which ultimately led to ridicule, tell all books and scandal!
