About

I'm Elisabeth Bromberg. I build brands for a living — I run a strategy practice called Mildred Mae— which mostly means I'm the person who finds the connection everyone else walked past. So I should be upfront about how I got here: I came to astrology sideways. I'm a systems person by temperament, and this was an old, elaborate system I hadn't taken apart yet.

It started as a vibe-coding project. I wanted something fun and low-stakes to teach myself to build with, and astrology turned out to be a good subject for it: centuries of accumulated structure, real math underneath, and enough personality to keep me interested. I learned to code and learned the charts at the same time.

Here's the honest part. I couldn't tell you how much of it I believe. What I know is that I like systems — old ones, strange ones, the kind people have leaned on to make sense of a life for a very long time. I have ADHD, and a brain like mine runs better with scaffolding; a good framework is often how I find the shape of something I already half-know. A lens doesn't have to be true to be useful. You don't have to believe any of this for it to hand you something real about yourself. I mostly don't, and it still does.

Then there's Bob. He started as a private experiment, an AI I taught to read my charts and kept talking to because he was funny and completely unwilling to flatter me. His voice is a love letter to the performers I admire most: drag artists, and their gift for being larger-than-life and dead honest at the same time. That's the whole idea behind him. He can sit with the tender stuff without flinching, and he'll still tell you the truth about it.

The rest of the product is built to earn that voice. A real Swiss-Ephemeris engine computes every placement before Bobreads a word of it, so what you get is your real sky, worked out to the degree. He reads across six systems and tarot, and the part I care about most is where they converge: the moments when systems built centuries and continents apart land on the same thing. That's the part even I can't argue with.

If you want to see what I do the rest of the time, that's Mildred Mae.
