Co-Star is bringing astrology into the 21st century with a social, personalized experience that helps people reflect and connect in real, meaningful ways. Over half of millennials and nearly a third of American adults are into astrology. We just raised $5m from the people behind companies like Glossier, Rent the Runway, eBay, Periscope, and Everlane.
