Exploring Mars Retrograde, Mercury Retrograde, and Year-End Alignments

In episode 430 astrologers Chris Brennan and Austin Coppock discuss the year ahead astrology forecast for 2024! Some of the highlights of this year include Pluto moving into Aquarius for the next 20 years, the Saturn-Neptune conjunction in Pisces coming within 10 degrees, and Jupiter conjoining Uranus in Taurus. Jupiter will also move into Gemini where it will trine Pluto in Aquarius, there will be eclipses in Aries, Libra, and Pisces, Uranus will form a close trine with Pluto, two comets will appear in the sky, and Mars will go retrograde in Cancer and Leo. We spend the first two and a half hours giving a big picture overview of all of the major planetary alignments and trends in 2024, and then we transition into giving a more granular month by month breakdown of the astrology of the next year. As we wrap up, we ponder the historical significance of the decade and the astrological markers that suggest we're at the cusp of a new era.
