The astrology of the week of June 24th, 2024, prompts celebration and evaluation as we settle into Cancer season. On Wednesday, Venus (the planet of beauty) squares the lunar nodes, calling us to refine the shared spaces we hold for love and justice. Later that day, Mercury (the messenger planet) trines Saturn (the planet of boundaries), infusing our manifestation practices and long-term plans with pragmatism. On Friday, Venus sextiles Mars (the planet of action) and spurs us toward the relationships and creative projects that bring us joy. Then on Saturday, Saturn stations retrograde and asks us to review the structures we’ve been building since March 2023. Finally, Mercury sextiles Uranus on Saturday, catalyzing reinvention in our communications and thought processes. Overall, this week buzzes with possibility.

The Week of June 24th, 2024: Moving forward and looking back with Saturn retrograde

Episode 183

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 17th, 2024, is equal parts hazy and clarifying. On Monday, Mercury (the planet of communication) forms a square to Neptune (the planet of dreams), muddling details and supercharging our imaginations. Then, Mercury moves into Cancer and conjoins Venus (the planet of love), sweetening our exchanges with expressions of gratitude. On Thursday, the Sun squares Neptune and blurs the line between reality and our dreamscapes. Later that same day, the Sun enters Cancer and the June Solstice calls us to check in with the practical progress we’ve made in the last six months. On Friday, the Full Moon in Capricorn prompts us to recenter our goals and the tangible actions it takes to achieve them. But because the Full Moon opposes Venus, it also shines a light on our relationships and how we care for one another. Finally, on Saturday, Mercury squares the nodes of the Moon, sparking conversations that have the potential to broaden our horizons — or even change our lives. All in all, this week marks a pivotal shift in the year and ushers in a new season of growth.

The astrology of the week of June 10th, 2024, balances excavation with exploration. On Tuesday, Mars (the planet of action) makes a square to Pluto (the planet of underworld journeys), revealing deeply buried processes that relate to power and control. On Wednesday, Mercury (the messenger planet) forms a square to Saturn (the planet of structure), urging us to pause and reflect on where we could use more discernment. On Friday, there is a supportive Mercury cazimi in Gemini that squares Saturn, delivering insights that help us pick a lane to excel in. On Sunday, Venus (the planet of pleasure) makes a square to Neptune (the planet of dreams), beckoning us to indulge in what brings us joy — but Venus and Mercury also form squares to Saturn, cautioning us not to overdo it. Then, later on Sunday, Venus moves into Cancer, spotlighting our universal interconnectedness and reminding us to center our chosen family. Overall, this week prompts us to confront what’s going on beneath the surface — and revel in the sweetness.

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.
