Astrology forecast for July 13-19

Chris and Almie talk about the Mercury Retrograde in the sign of Leo that starts on July 17th (or 18th depending on your time zone) and will be with us through August 11th. Expect the next few weeks to have the usual increase in delays, miscommunications and misunderstandings that we associate with every Mercury Retrograde.

And while it’s not advisable to start new endeavors, it can be a great time to revisit stalled projects, tie up loose ends, and reconnect with friends and family. 

They also talk about the Saturn Retrograde that started on July 9th and will last until November 27th.

This long term retrograde will be testing our foundations and asking (or demanding) us to remove the parts that are no longer working or have simply run their course. 

And they talk about what days this week might be best for being productive and getting things done as we navigate the retrogrades as well as some lengthy void of course moons. 

In “Ask a Scorpio,” Chris asks Almie if she thinks the concrete slab they bought for their cat was a good investment.

Astrology forecast for July 6-12

Chris and Almie talk about the planet Uranus entering the sign of Gemini on Monday, July 7th. This will be the first time Uranus has been in Gemini since 1949.

Historically speaking, Uranus in Gemini has a connection to U.S-involved wars, including World War II, the American Civil War, and the American Revolutionary War. Uranus in Gemini also suggests even more use of Artificial Intelligence, and big expansion in that world.

They also talk about the Full Moon in Capricorn, which will be exact at 1:37pm pacific time on Thursday, July 10th. The Capricorn Full Moon could have us feeling ambitious, focusing on our career, and wanting to make improvements in those areas. 

And they touch on the Saturn Retrograde that starts on Saturday, July 12th, and they talk about how, believe it or not, “Saturn Retrograde” was once in consideration to be the title of the movie that everyone knows as “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.” 

In “Ask a Scorpio,” Chris plays a trivia game with Almie where she needs to guess the names of famous people who were born when Uranus was in Gemini. 

Astrology forecast for June 28-July 5

Chris and Almie talk about Venus, the planet of beauty and love, entering the sign of fast-moving Gemini on Friday, July 4th. With Venus entering the sign of the twins, speed, statistics, quick wit, rebelliousness, and people’s intellects will be especially attractive between now and July 31st. 

They also discuss Neptune turning retrograde on Friday, July 4th. (July 4th is a very busy day astrologically and Happy Birthday to the U.S. as well!) A Neptune Retrograde lasts for several months and the results of it are usually revealed over a period of time, but around the time a Neptune Retrograde either starts or ends, we can feel a little foggy, information might seem unclear, there can be a temptation to overindulge and escape, and we can also find ourselves feeling especially sensitive and/or inspired.

And they give listeners an overview of what we can expect when the planet Uranus (known as “The Great Awakener”) enters the sign of Gemini on Monday, July 7th. 

In “Ask a Scorpio,” Chris plays a trivia game with Almie where she needs to guess the names of famous people who were born with Mercury in Leo.

Astrology forecast for June 22-28

Chris and Almie talk about the Sun-Saturn Square and the Mars-Pluto Quincunx that are both taking place on Sunday, June 22nd that could have us feeling a little edgy, and perhaps a bit despondent as well. It might be a good day to focus on smaller projects, and perhaps work independently. 

They also discuss the Sun-Neptune square on Monday, June 23rd that could have us feeling foggy and a bit confused. And they go over what we can expect during an exceptionally long void-of-course moon, which will last all day Monday and almost all of Tuesday as well.

And they give listeners an overview of the Cancer New Moon, which is exact early in the morning on Wednesday, June 25th, and they discuss Mercury entering Leo for a very lengthy stay on Thursday, June 26th. 

In “Ask a Scorpio,” Chris asks Almie if she has any predictions for how the new episodes of “Squid Game” (coming out June 27th) will play out.

Astrology forecast for June 14-21

Chris and Almie talk about the fiery energy that’s in the air with Mars in the final degrees of Leo, and how that fire will be further intensified when Mars squares off with impulsive Uranus on Sunday, June 15th.

They also discuss the abundance of air energy we’re working with this weekend with the Sun in the air sign Gemini and the moon in the air sign Aquarius. Our minds will definitely be electrified and working over time from now into Monday, June 16th.

They also go over what we can expect when Mars enters the sign of Virgo on Tuesday, June 17th, and they talk about the Sun entering Cancer on June 20th, ushering in both Cancer Season and the Summer Solstice.

Astrology forecast for June 8-14

Chris and Almie talk about the tremendous amount of exuberance and enthusiasm (and maybe a little bit of chaos) we’ll be experiencing the first part of this week as we ramp up to the Sagittarius Full Moon, which will be exact on Wednesday, June 11th.

They also discuss what we can expect while Mercury is at the final degree of Gemini, and how our communications will be impacted when Mercury moves into Cancer on Sunday, June 8th.

And they talk about Jupiter moving into Cancer (the sign of its exaltation) on Monday, June 9th, and how Jupiter will be much more comfortable in Cancer than it was in Gemini, and hopefully this will bring a little good luck and good fortune to all of us.

Astrology forecast for June 1-7

Chris and Almie talk about all the Mercury that will be in the air at the beginning of this week. We’re already in Mercury-ruled Gemini Season, and once the Moon enters Mercury-ruled Virgo in the evening of Sunday, June 1st, we can expect there to be a noticeable increase in our mental energy, as well as our communications with others. We’re expecting plenty of information to be swirling around Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, and it might be tricky to differentiate between what information is useful and what information we should disregard. 

They also talk about the first quarter moon that will be exact on Monday, June 2nd, and how there could be an event or scenario that comes into play on Monday that is connected to the Full Moon on Wednesday, June 11th.

They discuss what we can expect when the moon travels through Libra and Scorpio during the second half of this week, and they touch on the positive aspects the asteroid Chiron will be making with Venus and Mercury, and how that could lead to opportunities for healing. 

And they talk about Venus- the planet of beauty and love- finally ending its journey through Aries, as it will enter its home sign of Taurus on Thursday, June 5th. 

In “Ask a Scorpio,” Chris asks Almie if she knows the origin of the saying “Rabbit, Rabbit,” an expression that some people say on the 1st of every month, and he also plays a trivia game with her where she needs to guess the names of famous Geminis.

Astrology forecast for May 25-31

Chris and Almie Rose discuss the Gemini New Moon, which will be exact around 8pm pacific time on Monday, May 26th and give listeners suggestions for how to best work with the new moon energy. 

They also talk about the recent shifts we’ve experienced with Saturn entering Aries on Saturday, May 24th and Mercury entering Gemini on Sunday, May 25th. Saturn is technically in its “fall” when it’s in Aries as it doesn’t feel all that comfortable there. Nevertheless, with Saturn in Aries, we might find ourselves building new foundations and new structures in our lives. 

With Mercury entering its home sign of Gemini, we can expect a noticeable uptick in our communications. Things might come and go quickly as Gemini moves very fast, and we could find ourselves becoming more curious and inquisitive and possibly wanting to learn new things or new skills as well. 

Chris and Almie Rose also discuss the Sun-Mercury conjunction on Thursday, May 29th that should help with our communications and also give us clarity in any areas of our lives where information has been a bit confusing or muddled. 

In “Ask a Scorpio,” Chris asks Almie Rose why the TV show “Poker Face” might appeal to Scorpios. 

Astrology forecast for May 17-24

Chris and Almie talk about Saturn returning to the sign of Aries for the first time since 1999.

They also discuss what we can expect in the days leading up to this big shift as Saturn makes its way through the 29th degree of Pisces.

Chris and Almie wish everyone a very happy Gemini Season. The Sun will enter the sign of the twins on Tuesday, May 20th and it will remain in Gemini until June 20th.

While the Sun is in Gemini we can expect our minds to become more inquisitive, more curious. We can also expect things to become more flexible and changeable.

And they also go over the Sun-Uranus conjunction that’s exact Saturday, May 17th in the sign of Taurus.

This conjunction could bring some electricity and heightened energy to the weekend, as well as a surprise or two.

We could find ourselves feeling restless and rebellious and wanting to break free from our usual routines. 

In “Ask a Scorpio,” Chris asks Almie what her favorite kind of bagel is, and also challenges her to a trivia game where she needs to guess the names of celebrities who were born when the Sun and Uranus were conjunct. 

Astrology forecast for May 9-17

Chris and Almie talk about the potentially intense and transformative Scorpio Full Moon, which will be exact around 10am pacific time on Monday, May 12th. Full Moons tend to shine a light on situations and emotions that have been previously hidden, and with this full moon in the probing sign of Scorpio, there could be additional revelations. 

They also talk about Mercury moving into the slow-and-steady sign of Taurus this Saturday, May 10th. With this transition, our communications over the next couple of weeks could become more focused and thought-out, and less impulsive. 

And they give listeners the heads up that Venus will be leaving its post-retrograde shadow on Friday, May 16th, and they talk about the dwarf planet Ceres entering the sign of Aries that same day. 

In “Ask a Scorpio,” Chris asks Almie if she’s excited for the Scorpio Full Moon, and Chris and Almie play a trivia game where Almie needs to guess the names of famous people who were born with a Taurus Sun and a Scorpio Moon.
