In this podcast, New York Times best-selling 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 July 15th, 2024, encourages us to dig deep and alchemize what no longer serves us or the collective. On Monday, Mars (the planet of action) conjoins Uranus (the planet of disruption), prompting us to break free from harmful systems and structures. Though this is an opportune moment for breakthroughs, it cautions us to act on inspiration rather than impulse. On Saturday, Mars moves into Gemini, turning the dial — and potentially the chaos — in our communications and technology use all the way up. On Sunday, the Full Moon in Capricorn shines a spotlight on anything festering in the darkness, thanks to Pluto’s proximity. (The planet of underworld journeys is in the early degrees of Aquarius, not far from the lunation.) Later that day, Mars trines Pluto, boosting our overall focus and determination. Altogether, this week urges us to affect necessary change in our lives and investigate the parts that are so rarely unveiled.

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.
