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 January 22nd, 2024, is pretty calm until the weekend, which is jam-packed with activity. On Tuesday, Venus (the planet of love) enters Capricorn, reflecting a pattern of generosity and innovation in our relationships. On Thursday, the Full Moon in Leo opposes Pluto (the planet of transformation) shining a bright spotlight on collective movements and subterranean power dynamics. On Friday, the Sun squares Jupiter (the planet of abundance), bringing us a burst of energy and confidence. Later that same day, Uranus stations direct, initiating a system update for the status quo. On Saturday, Mercury (the planet of communication), conjoins Mars (the planet of action), allowing us to say what needs to be said, even if it’s a little spicy. Later that same day, Mercury squares the nodes (places where eclipses happen), and then, on Sunday, Mars does the same. Both transits point to a larger story related to the eclipses that will unfold over the next three months, addressing what we are releasing and moving toward. Also on Saturday, Venus sextiles Saturn (the planet of boundaries), strengthening our bonds. On Sunday, Mercury trines Uranus, opening our conversations up to new possibilities. Finally, on Sunday, Venus trines Jupiter (the planet of abundance), infusing joy and sweetness into our connections. After any challenges this week may bring, remember to center some delight, pleasure, and beauty on Sunday. Take care.
