Summary
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.
