In this podcast, New York Times bestselling author and astrologer Chani Nicholas discusses the astrology of the week and what it might mean for us all.
The astrology of the week of August 1st, 2022, is challenging, to say the least. As Mars — the planet of war, aggression, and conflict — conjoins the North Node and Uranus, the planet of disruption, we’re given ample opportunity to de-escalate situations and get to the root of anything that isn’t working. Because it’s all happening in Taurus, issues surrounding the environment, land, food, and/or the state of our ecological crisis will take center stage. Later in the week, Mars squares Saturn, the proverbial stop sign of the solar system — so prep for whiplash and quick-thinking. But there is beauty to be found in the dark. Through two small but mighty aspects, Venus in Cancer reminds us that connection and relationship are our way through challenging times. Hold on to what’s important and let the rest fall as it may.

In this podcast, New York Times bestselling author and astrologer Chani Nicholas discusses the astrology of the week and what it might mean for us all. 
The astrology of the week of June 3rd, 2024, illuminates the bunny trails we are most excited to follow. On Monday, Mercury (the messenger planet) moves into its home sign of Gemini, signaling a flurry of curiosity, diversion, and conversation. It then goes on to trine Pluto (the planet of underworld journeys) and helps to unearth information buried deep below the surface. On Tuesday, Mercury conjoins Jupiter (the planet of plenty) in Gemini, calling us to revel in life’s little flashes of genius. Also on Tuesday, Venus (the planet of love) joins the Sun in Gemini for a cazimi, spotlighting the sweetness in our communications and fascinations. On Thursday, the New Moon in Gemini prompts us to both relish in our blessings and better integrate them into our lives. Then on Saturday, Venus forms a square to Saturn (the planet of boundaries), cautioning us to practice discernment in this moment of abundance. Also on Saturday, Mars (the planet of action) enters Taurus, slowing its pace and nudging us to go after our long-term goals. Finally, on Sunday, the Sun forms a square to Saturn, reminding us of the consequences of our choices and instructing us to reconcile our big ideas with what is actually useful. In all, this week is the perfect time to balance our bounty (and megadose of energy) with intentionality.

The astrology of the week of May 27th, 2024, lends us a magnifying glass and a microphone. On Monday, Mercury (the planet of communication) sextiles Saturn (the planet of structure), encouraging us to pore over every detail of our plans. On Wednesday, Mars (the cosmic warrior) conjoins Chiron (the minor planet associated with healing) in fiery Aries, spotlighting the impact of our actions on others and reorienting us toward relief. On Thursday, Mercury conjoins Uranus (the planet of disruption), surfacing surprising news and emboldening us to speak our most unconventional truths. On Sunday, we’re gifted a once-in-a-lifetime trine between Jupiter (the planet of expansion) and Pluto (the planet of underworld journeys) — so prepare for heightened abundance, opportunity, and potential for transformative discussions. Then, Mercury sextiles Neptune (the planet of dreams), doubling down on the day’s idealism. All together, this week brings a flurry of activity (and conversations) surrounding our personal and collective power.

Episode 179

In this podcast, New York Times bestselling author and astrologer Chani Nicholas discusses the astrology of the week and what it might mean for us all.
The astrology of the week of May 20th, 2024, trades the solidity of Taurus for the windstorm of intel that is Gemini. On Monday, the Sun moves into the mutable air sign, dispersing data and energy along its path. On Wednesday, the Sun trines Pluto (the planet of transformation), surfacing therapeutic insights and conversations. On Thursday, Venus (the planet of pleasure) conjoins Jupiter (the planet of expansion), calling us to plant seeds of connection. Later that same day, the Full Moon in Sagittarius sparks generosity and illuminates pockets of beauty in the part of our chart that contains the archer. Then Venus flits into Gemini and challenges us to ditch the binaries within our relationships. Lastly, on Saturday, Venus trines Pluto, bringing a healing balm to our intimacy journeys, and Jupiter joins the party in Gemini — where it will spend the next year generating boundless curiosity and leading us down fresh paths of inquiry. All in all, this week marks the start of a pivotal chapter in 2024.

The Week of May 20th, 2024: A bountiful Full Moon in Sagittarius, plus a party in Gemini

Episode 178

In this podcast, New York Times bestselling author and astrologer Chani Nicholas discusses the astrology of the week and what it might mean for us all.
The astrology of the week of May 13th, 2024, is lively, lucky, and largely concentrated in Taurus. On Monday, there is a Uranus cazimi (aka conjunction between the Sun and the planet of disruption) in the sign of the bull, which makes it an excellent moment to take stock of our abundance and channel it into upgrading and dismantling outmoded systems. Later that day, Venus (the planet of love) sextiles Saturn (the planet of boundaries) in the same sign, bringing longevity and structure to our innovations. On Wednesday, Mercury (the planet of communication) also moves into the fixed earth sign and goes on to square Pluto (the planet of transformation) on Friday, unearthing hidden truths through deep conversations. On Saturday, Venus conjoins Uranus, encouraging us to seek fresh modes of pleasure and connection. Then there’s another cazimi in Taurus, between the Sun and Jupiter (the planet of expansion), which heralds new opportunities, wisdom, and growth. Finally, on Sunday, Mars (the warrior planet) amps up our energy levels as it joins the North Node in Aries. It’s a lot. But it’s a great time to revel in the strength and beauty that Taurus is known for.

The astrology of the week of May 6th, 2024, draws our attention — and gratitude — to life’s sweet spots. On Monday, Mercury (the messenger planet) forms a conjunction with the minor planet Chiron to help us wrap up a healing process that began in March.

Then on Tuesday, the New Moon in Taurus beckons us to break new ground in our connections and pleasure pursuits, thanks to its proximity to Venus (the planet of beauty) and Jupiter (the planet of abundance), which are both in the fixed earth sign. All in all, it’s a week for relishing what brings us joy and centering community.
