Live Astrology Readings 8/25 & 9/29 ✷ 12th house avl ✷ Event by Suede @ The Odd
Looking for LGBTQIA+ Friendly events in Asheville, NC?
One of my favorite astrology-based events is in Asheville, North Carolina at The Odd. It’s hosted by Suede; a hub for parties by queers, for queers, and called 12TH House AVL.
This event is near and dear to me. When I saw this event pop up on my Instagram algorithm, I knew I needed to reach out to see if I could be a part of it in any capacity. I mean, seriously, an astrology party for LGBTQIA+ folks in this little corner of Western North Carolina?! The creator and host is an all-around incredible human being. I’m delighted to say I’ll be at the next two parties doing live natal chart readings, which ultimately, will be their last since the host is moving at the end of summer.
Reading astrology charts at The Odd for 12th House AVL was my first leap of faith, reading astrology charts in a public setting, and a nightclub/bar setting at that. Thanks to that connection, I’ve found that I love reading at live events, especially for folks in the LGBTQIA+ community.
Without that push to read publicly, who knows how long it would have taken me to branch out and start reading in an open forum setting? Not knowing who will approach the chair, having only a few moments to register their natal chart on my iPad, and lead with my heart. It’s invigorating, keeps me on my toes, and provides me with so much love for the Asheville community.
Why this Asheville-based event is so special to me
There’s also something uniquely special about reading for queer folks. It’s the subtle understanding of queer dynamics, struggles, relationship structures, and the social stigmas that deeply invests me. Astrology helped me greatly during the time that I was coming out. Although I was bisexual for a long time before I realized I was a lesbian, it helped make sense of the complex emotions and subconscious understandings I was coming to in 2020.
I hope that offering readings for other queer folks in my community helps them make sense of the unknown. Even if it’s just having a container for a listening ear, and holding onto glimpses of the future with a bit more hope and clarity — it’s a service I’d be happy to give forevermore.
You can find me reading astrology charts for the next two months at 12th House AVL, at The Odd in Asheville, NC. I offer readings at a sliding scale for this event, lower than my usual threshold, so marginalized folks have access to astrology where they otherwise might be priced out. After all, I need to give some love to the event that got me out and in the world!
Pricing for 12th House AVL Astrology Readings by Courtney
I provide my in-person natal chart readings at this event for $2/mintue, $1/mintue, or for free in exchange for an honest Google review. Nowhere else can you get readings from me at this rate, and it’s because I deeply cherish reading astrology charts for the queer folks in my community. It’s a heart-based offering that I’m grateful to provide.
