Astrology of the Week Ahead with Chani Nicholas CHANI

Episode 175

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 April 22nd, 2024, brings deep catharsis, abrupt reorientation, and a little bit of nonsense. On Tuesday, a Full Moon in Scorpio submerges us in our unbuffered feelings and illuminates what lies in the shadows as it squares Pluto (the planet of transformation). On Thursday, Mercury (the messenger planet) stations direct near the North Node, kicking up retrograde dust and amplifying shifts in our perspective. Lastly, on Sunday, Mars (the planet of action) conjoins Neptune (the planet of illusion), urging us to relinquish control and ride the tide. Overall, this week is an opportune time to hunker down and surrender to emotional unclogging.

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 April 15th, 2024, ushers in some exciting, lively, and maybe even lucky astrology. On Monday, Mercury (the planet of communication) conjoins Chiron (the minor planet associated with healing) in Aries, urging us to share our wounds with the world. On Wednesday, Venus (the planet of pleasure) makes a conjunction with the North Node, increasing our appetites for love and beauty. On Friday, Mercury and Venus join together, sparking conversations that lead to cohesion. Then the Sun moves into Taurus, marking the end of eclipse season, and Mars (the planet of action) makes a sextile to both Jupiter (the planet of abundance) and Uranus (the planet of disruption), helping us take quantum leaps toward solutions. On Saturday, Jupiter conjoins Uranus and seeds a generative opportunity for us to expand beyond our current systems, and Venus conjoins Chiron to bring something tender to the surface. Lastly, on Sunday, the Sun squares Pluto (the planet of transformation), which could ruffle a power dynamic or two. Add it all together, and it’s a pretty potent week for growth.

The astrology of the week of April 8th, 2024, is pivotal. On Monday, there’s a solar eclipse in Aries, asking us to metaphorically burn away what is not meant to stay. This eclipse is occurring conjunct the Chiron cazimi, bringing up hidden emotions to be witnessed. On Wednesday Mars (the planet of action) conjoins Saturn (the planet of boundaries), creating a bit of a gridlock. On Thursday, the Sun conjoins Mercury (the planet of communications) in a cazimi, giving us a moment of clarity. Overall, it’s a challenging week that requires us to make space for the lessons that we receive. Take extra good care.

The astrology of the week of April 1st, 2024, asks us to be prepared for glitches and malfunctions. On Monday, Mercury (the planet of communication) stations retrograde in Aries, stirring up the typical trouble in the area of our lives that contains the sign of the ram. On Wednesday, Venus (the planet of love) conjoins Neptune (the planet of fantasy), creating a dreamy and romantic mid-week interlude. On Thursday, the Sun conjoins the North Node (aka the place where eclipses happen), adding a touch of instability to the ether as we prepare for the next eclipse. Also on Thursday, Venus enters Aries, adding some extra kindling to our connections. On Saturday, Venus sextiles Pluto (the planet of transformation), empowering us to strengthen our bonds with depth and prowess. So drink plenty of water and seek out ways to slow down and cool off this week.

Episode 171

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 March 25th, 2024, contains a very important moment. That is because on Monday, there’s a lunar eclipse in Libra, uncovering something that is usually hidden and prompting us to rebalance the scales of justice. And since this eclipse is ruled by Venus (the planet of love) — which is currently exalted in Pisces — it is more supported than the first one in this series that occurred in October 2023. On Thursday, Venus sextiles Uranus (the planet of upheaval), encouraging us to be more experimental in our relationships and pleasure pursuits. Take extra care of yourselves and each other this week.
