Art is the New Wall Street
We were sold a specific version of success. Get the degree. Climb the ladder. Hit the milestones. For artists and creatives, that plan usually comes with a quiet cost: the slow shrinking of the thing that makes you you.
Art is the New Wall Street is a podcast hosted by poet and creative director, Morgan Short for creatives who are done making their art fit around their life and are ready to build their life around their art. Every month, Morgan talks with musicians, writers, photographers, designers, dancers, and others who made that shift. Honest conversations about what it takes and what becomes possible when you do.
The show covers creative identity, creative process, imposter syndrome, leaving inherited ideas of success behind, and what it actually looks like to build a more fulfilling life.

Astrology as Code: Beca Bagdocimo on Birth Charts, Collective Energy, and What's Coming in 2026
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Something big is coming at the end of February, beginning of March 2026. An astrologer predicts “there will be literal fire” and “things will burn.”
Beca Bagdocimo, aka The Code Fairy, reads birth charts like code. She predicted her own corporate exit by studying her transits, journaled about wanting to leave, and got laid off on the exact date her chart said it would happen.
Now she lives in a van, does astrology full-time, and helps people uncover their purpose by reading their charts.
Beca joins Art is the New Wall Street to share her story, read my chart, and explain why we’re living through the most significant astrological moment in modern history.
Here's what's happening with the stars:
Pluto entered Aquarius in November 2024 (after initial moves in March 2023 and January 2024). The last time Pluto was in Aquarius was between 1778 and 1798, a period marked by massive global upheaval including the American Revolution.
Neptune officially entered Aries on March 30, 2025. The last time Neptune was in Aries was from 1861 to 1875, which coincides with the American Civil War.
Right now those cycles are happening at the same time. The energy of a revolution. The energy of a civil war. A collapsing system and a new world forming underneath it.
