Take it as a Sign
Tatler Hong Kong|February 2024
On November 22, Tatler and the Upper House hosted the final edition of House Stories, a monthly panel series at the hotel’s Green Room.
Take it as a Sign

The panel put a spotlight on the increased popularity of the likes of Tarot cards, birth chart readings, crystals and other spiritual wellness trends that have become part of mainstream culture. To demystify astrology’s appeal, Tatler spoke to three leaders in the field: Deborah Lynna, an astrologer who combines practices based on Indian and western-originated philosophies; Christina Ko, founder of Good Peoples, which operates a wellness space and is also a content studio; and former Tatler cover star and feng shui designer Thierry Chow.

Moderated by Aaina Bhargava, Tatler’s arts and culture editor, the conversation dispelled common misconceptions surrounding astrology while shedding light on its potential applications. Each speaker shared their personal journeys and how they found themselves working in the field of astrology. Chow, whose father Chow Hon-ming is a famed feng shui master, said she had once sworn she would never get into this industry—“but in my 20s, I hit a low point, and I began to reflect on my life and it led me to this”, she said. Ko is a self-confessed astrology junkie, while Lynna recalled buying a spellbook and “casting spells in the ocean” as a little girl.
