Astrology Unfiltered | Origin Story with Mike, The Peace Dealer

Jaclyn Joy sits down with Mike, known as The Peace Dealer, to hear the origin story behind his popular YouTube astrology channel. Mike shares his journey from being raised Christian in El Paso, getting his first natal reading from Christopher Witecki at Soulgarden, learning tarot through an Ifa practitioner, receiving an ultimatum from his uncle in Kansas, and driving a stranger's car to Venice Beach the week he became The Peace Dealer. The two Gemini projectors, both born in 1990, compare notes on current transits affecting them personally: Uranus in Gemini, Saturn and Neptune in Aries conjunct their Mars, Jupiter in Leo on their South Node, and the nodal shift into Aquarius and Leo. Mike talks about what's next for his channel, including video essays, live events, and returning to school for electrical engineering, before a rapid-fire round comparing Venus placements, Mars placements, and Tupac versus Biggie. Astrology Unfiltered is hosted by Jaclyn Joy and creates a bridge between cosmic awareness and everyday human experience, helping listeners better understand themselves, their emotions, and the energetic patterns shaping their lives.
