Surrealist blues poet, aja monet, is a Virgo rising, Leo sun, and Cancer moon. Astrologer and host Isa Nakazawa sits down with aja to explore how her chart has informed her career, love, loss, and more.

aja opens up about the importance of her Cuban-Jamaican-Brooklyn roots, cultivating self-awareness, how she defines success, and the difficulty of being “fluent in the language of loss.” Leaving no stone unturned, they also delve into the significance of aja’s Leo sun in the 12th house, the house of the subconscious, dreams, compassion, solitude, loss, and endings.
