153. Unshaming the Seventh House with Colin Bedell

Welcome to the 7th of 12 episodes where I unshame the houses of the chart with a different guest astrologer for each episode.

My guest is Colin Bedell aka QueerCosmos! I am so honored and excited that Colin said Yes to this because he’s my favorite astrologer talking about relationships. 

To the ancients, the 7th House was called The House of Setting, because it represents the western horizon at the moment of birth.  

Here we’re discussing how shame can show up in the department of life we call the 7th House, which includes: 

- one-on-one legal contracts like marriage, business partners, therapist-patient

- one-on-one energetic contracts (who’s agreeing to what in this relationship) 

- enemies 

- significant others 

- psychological projections 

- buyers in a purchase or the other party in a negotiation 

- how we understand ourselves in counterpoint to another person’s perspective 

Colin Bedell is a bestselling author, speaker, and media expert on astrology and relationships. As the cofounder of QueerCosmos (a comparative Astrological resource for LGBTQIA+ folks), Colin is committed to updating ideas on identity, relationships, and spirituality that are inclusive to a wider range of racial, sexual, and gender diversity. Which is why Well & Good Magazine listed Colin as one of the most influential people in the wellness industry and as a 2020 Innovator.

Complementing his work with QueerCosmos, Colin writes weekly horoscopes for Cosmopolitan.com. Colin’s been featured on Good Morning America, New York Magazine, MTV, and TLC’s show Stargazing, and Colin is a season regular Astrologer on  “Written In The Stars,” which premiered November 2022 on Discovery Plus. 

Additionally, Colin is working towards certification by The Relational Life Therapy Institute to become a Couple’s Coach where he can integrate astrological approaches with leading theories, models, methods, and skills for healthy relationships. Follow Colin on Instagram. 

To go deeper with the sign at your 7th House, I recommend investing in the ⁠Living the Signs workbook⁠ for that sign.
