Kent Bye of the Voices of VR Podcast discusses virtual reality, astrology, and technology, and the surprising ways they are interconnected.
During the course of the episode we talk about the history of technology, and how important turning points have historically lined up with major outer planet alignments in the past.
We also spend a bit of time talking about the future, and about some upcoming outer planet trends, and expectations about astrology and virtual reality that are coming up.
Kent wrote an article on astrology and virtual reality in 2017 for the Archai journal titled The Archetypal Cycles of Virtual Reality:

This episode was partially motivated by some of the recent discussion about the Metaverse over the past year, as well as Facebook's announcement that it was changing its name to Meta in October when Jupiter and Saturn stationed direct in Aquarius.
Kent flew out to Denver for a couple of days to record this conversation, as well as another on artificial intelligence that will be released as an episode of The Astrology Podcast next month, and this episode ended up being a sweeping 5-hour discussion where we covered a lot of areas related to astrology and technology.
There are timestamps below so you can see all the different topics we covered.
