The Week of September 26th, 2022: The New Moon in Libra occurs, Venus enters Libra, and Mercury stations direct opposite Neptune
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 September 26th, 2022, brings a mix of clarity and conundrum. On Monday, the New Moon in Libra occurs opposite Jupiter, ushering in a beautiful new beginning in the part of your chart that contains the scales. On Thursday, Venus enters its home sign of Libra, inviting ease into our relationships, and then on Saturday, it goes on to oppose Jupiter, initiating an appetite for beauty, parties, and good times. To close out the week, Mercury stations direct in an opposition to Neptune. While the end of Mercury’s retrograde is usually a relief, here, the planet of communication pulls focus on confusion and illusion. So things could get messy — and topsy-turvy. But if we work with the rest of the astrology, it can help us through with a little more grace.

The Week of September 19th, 2022: Libra season / the Equinox, and Mercury cazimi
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 September 19th, 2022, is all about balance. On Monday, Venus trines Uranus, prompting us to realign our relationship to pleasure and play. On Thursday, the Sun enters Libra heralding the Equinox. This is one of two days per year when the hours of day equal the hours of night. Later that same day, the Sun and Mercury (retrograde) come together in a cazimi, gifting us insights into where our systems of justice, fairness, and equity need to be recalibrated. Then on Friday, Mercury continues its retrograde back into Virgo and makes a messy opposition to Neptune, blurring our boundaries and — ultimately — helping us pinpoint where things need to shift.

The Week of September 12th, 2022: The Sun opposes Neptune, then Venus makes a square to Mars
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 September 12th, 2022, is relatively simple but sloshy. The week begins as the Sun in Virgo leaves a trine with Uranus, prompting us to roll up our sleeves and discover new ways to work with what we’ve got. Then on Friday, the Sun forms an opposition to Neptune, which delivers a conflicting message — that sometimes things don’t work and we have to let them go. Later that day, Venus in Virgo makes a square to Mars, adding a critical edge and an influx of emotion to our interactions. Because this is all happening in a Mercury-ruled sign during Mercury retrograde, things feel a little messy. The solution? Don’t be reactive. Refuse to take anything personally. Prepare for details to get lost and translations to be thrown out the window.

The Week of September 5th, 2022: Mercury retrograde and the Full Moon in Pisces
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 September 5th, 2022, is all about going with the flow. In fact, there’s no other option. With Mercury stationing retrograde and a Full Moon in Pisces occurring within eight hours of each other, this week brings a lot of feelings and obstacles. If we spend our time trying to push things forward that are clearly moving backward, thanks to Mercury, we’re going to waste all of our precious energy. But if we surrender to the process, we can use this time to think in a different way. The same goes for the Full Moon in Pisces. Because this lunation is conjunct Neptune — the deity of the oceans — it’s dreamy and sensitizing, but also a little wobbly. In order to make the most of it, we’ll need to ride the waves instead of trying to swim against the tides.

The Week of August 29th, 2022: Mars sextiles Jupiter, then Mercury opposes Jupiter
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 August 29th, 2022, houses two helpful — though slightly extreme — aspects. On Thursday, Mars and Jupiter come into a lovely alignment, broadening our minds and gifting us easy wins all around. But because Jupiter is in Aries, a Mars-ruled sign, the planet of abundance is at the planet of victory’s fiery whim. Then on Friday, Mercury (the planet of communication) opposes Jupiter and puts our conversations about justice on full blast. It’s loud. It’s clear. But it’s also really powerful. Focus on the messages and triumphs you want to make — then prepare to bask in their goodness.

The Week of August 22nd, 2022: Virgo season begins and there’s a New Moon in Virgo
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 August 22nd, 2022, is here to help us to scrape away the gunk that’s clogging our minds, communications, and relationships with precision. On Monday, the Sun moves into earthy, mutable Virgo, highlighting the beauty in the details, and on Saturday, the New Moon in Virgo occurs. Unlike typical New Moons, this lunation isn’t great for planting seeds. Instead, it cuts close to the bone and brings a critical, sharp, and analytical eye to everything we touch — thanks to an exact square to Mars. This aspect adds an inflammatory lens to the week, but it also lends us the courage to do the things we need to do, no matter how unpleasant. So if you know how to work with it, it can actually be quite productive.
We also have some exciting news — last week, we officially launched daily content in the CHANI app. That means personalized daily horoscopes, a snapshot of the current Moon phase and sign, daily featured meditations, and so much more. So if you haven’t already, update your app and enjoy. And if you’re an Android user, you can now find your daily horoscope on the CHANI website.

The Week of August 15th, 2022: Mercury trines Uranus, Venus trines Jupiter, and Mars enters Gemini
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 August 15th, 2022, encourages us to go with the flow and follow what’s easy. After the gnarly astrology of the past month, this week brings a welcomed shift, thanks to a couple of lovely trines. On Tuesday, Mercury (the planet of communication) trines Uranus (the planet of innovation) and ushers in some much-needed system updates. Then on Thursday, Venus (the planet of connection) trines Jupiter (the planet of abundance), delivering blessings all around. This is a moment for spontaneous hangs with your besties, and an opportunity to celebrate the generosity in your life. At the end of the week, Mars moves into Gemini and Mercury makes an opposition to Neptune, sparking a flurry of curiosity and Twilight Zone logic. So sit back and get your daydream on. Your to-do list can wait a few days.

The Week of August 8th, 2022: The Full Moon in Aquarius and the aftermath of the Mars / North Node / Uranus conjunction
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 August 8th, 2022, carries challenging reverberations from Mars’ recent North Node / Uranus conjunction and square to Saturn — but it also brings a Full Moon to illuminate everything that needs our attention. Occurring on Thursday, the Full Moon in Aquarius arrives in a close conjunction with Saturn and a square to Uranus, which highlight the extreme nature of our situations. This lunation is here to shine the spotlight on how important patience really is. So go slow and give yourself ample space. Innovation and perspective need time to flourish. In the latter half of the week, the Sun makes a square to Uranus and opposes Saturn, Venus enters Leo, and Mars makes a sextile with Neptune.

The Week of August 1st, 2022: Mars in Taurus conjoins the North Node and Uranus, then squares Saturn
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 August 1st, 2022, is challenging, to say the least. As Mars — the planet of war, aggression, and conflict — conjoins the North Node and Uranus, the planet of disruption, we’re given ample opportunity to de-escalate situations and get to the root of anything that isn’t working. Because it’s all happening in Taurus, issues surrounding the environment, land, food, and/or the state of our ecological crisis will take center stage. Later in the week, Mars squares Saturn, the proverbial stop sign of the solar system — so prep for whiplash and quick-thinking. But there is beauty to be found in the dark. Through two small but mighty aspects, Venus in Cancer reminds us that connection and relationship are our way through challenging times. Hold on to what’s important and let the rest fall as it may.

The Week of July 25th, 2022: The New Moon occurs in Leo and Mercury squares Mars, the North Node, and Uranus
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 July 25th, 2022, ushers in an extreme mix of emotion. It’s filled with challenges and abundance, chaos and opportunity — and it reminds us that sometimes, you just have to roll with the punches. At the beginning of the week, Mercury — the microphone of the cosmos — makes a square to Mars, the planet that loves get our blood boiling. Then, it continues on to square Uranus, the planet of disruption, as well as the North Node later on. So, conversations could get heated. Things could feel volatile. But the confrontations that arise could also shed light on what needs to change for the better. And then, the New Moon in Leo arrives, gifting us the courage to speak up and push through with flair. Trining Jupiter, the planet of abundance, this lunation brings a gorgeous opportunity to set bold intentions and initiate our own sense of leadership. So radiate your “special something” and recommit to our dreams. The world needs them.
