ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Have you ever noticed things come in threes? One thing goes wrong, then another, then another — and you start to wonder if the universe is trying to tell you something. So is there anything to it? This week we go straight into it: mazal, horoscopes, and the surprising truth about whether the stars actually have a say in your life.
Here's what we get into:
- Why the Torah takes astrology seriously — and then forbids you to touch it
- Pharaoh's stargazers, and the reading that came true
- Avraham being lifted above the stars — ein mazal l'Yisrael
- The two kinds of mazal, and which one you can actually rise above
- What Rabbi Akiva's daughter did the night before her wedding that changed everything
By the end, you'll never read a horoscope — or say "it's just not my year" — the same way again.
If this one spoke to you, share it with a friend who checks their horoscope "just for fun," and come tell me what landed.
