The Week of July 29th, 2024: An enlivening New Moon in Leo meets Mercury retrograde

Episode 189 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 29th, 2024, is as turbulent as it is invigorating. On Friday, Venus (the planet of justice) squares Uranus (the planet of innovation), calling us to swap people-pleasing for authenticity and harmony for collective progress. On Sunday, the New Moon in Leo occurs and sextiles Jupiter (the planet of expansion), emboldening us to lead with confidence and show up as our most powerful selves. Then Venus enters Virgo, where it provides helpful — though not always solicited — critiques on aesthetic matters. And finally, Mercury (the planet of communication) stations retrograde, nudging us to fix whatever systems need mending. Overall, this week is an opportune time to recommit to our radiance and strive valiantly toward improvement. This episode was recorded on 06/10/2024.
