Summary
Episode 243
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 week of August 11th, 2025, features some of the best astrology of the year. Mercury retrograde comes to a close, helping us work through communication issues and process all we’ve learned in the past three weeks. And for the first time since 2013, Venus teams up with Jupiter in Cancer, starting a new cycle of luck, joy, and connection. This moment reminds us to appreciate all the love and beauty that surround us. But they also call us to plant the seeds of future abundance. So set intentions for the life and world you want. Then do one thing to help make those dreams a reality.
This episode covers:
The end of Mercury’s retrograde on Monday, August 11th
Saturn’s sextile to Uranus on Monday, August 11th
Venus’ conjunction to Jupiter on Monday, August 11th
Mercury’s sextile to Mars on Thursday, August 14th
