62: The Lancashire Cotton Mill Hysteria & the 1787 Zodiac Back
Description
On today’s episode, Valerie tells the mystifying tale of an 18th century prank gone wrong! Lancashire County residents were distressed when an outbreak of convulsions began at the local cotton mill and spread nearby. When the doctor arrived, he brought with him a most surprising remedy. We cover this incident and a few other examples of some wild hysterias throughout history. Next, Amy Jo covers the astrology and astronomy of 1787 along with a personal look at friend of the pod Caroline Herschel’s badassery. We also take a look at Amy Jo’s personal connection to the chart of the U.S. Constitution and how Pluto in Aquarius (our sign of the week) may be spurring “the collective” in positive ways.
