Summary
Episode 193
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 August 26th, 2024, mixes sweetness with poignancy. On Tuesday, Venus (the planet of pleasure) trines Uranus (the disruptor), motivating us to get experimental with new modes of creativity, invention, and delight. But on Wednesday, Venus goes on to oppose Neptune (the planet of illusion). Though things could get cloudy in our relationships, this moment is steeped in creative inspiration. Then, Mercury (the messenger planet) stations direct, urging us to regroup, gather our thoughts, and move forward with renewed clarity. On Thursday, Venus enters its home sign of Libra, where beauty, art, and love reign supreme. Right after, Venus trines Pluto (the planet of underworld journeys), calling us to bask in the healing properties of joy and connection. On Sunday, Uranus stations retrograde — which could feel a little destabilizing, but it could also reveal fruitful ways to challenge the status quo. Finally, Pluto re-enters Capricorn for the final time (in our lifetimes), prompting us to reflect on how we’ve embodied power and transformation over the last 15 years. Overall, this week is an opportune time to relish in our progress and tie up any loose ends.

| 0:25.0 | This recording, this episode, we were talking about the week of August 26th. |
| 0:31.7 | And look, a lot of this week, like right up until the very end, is not unprecedented astrology. It's not |
| 0:40.1 | huge deal astrology. It's actually got a lot of really lovely things to it. On Tuesday, |
| 0:46.5 | we've got like a fun and flirty Venus, Trine, Uranus. And that is a very like unexpectedly delightful situation occurring in our |
| 1:00.2 | life. It's really good for creativity. It's really good for redoing a style of something. It's really |
| 1:08.6 | inventive. And it's also, I hope, going to get us to try new things. |
| 1:17.5 | One of the ways that we can really help ourselves to grow, one of the ways that we can |
| 1:24.2 | manifest the things that we want to manifest, is by doing what we don't |
| 1:30.0 | usually do, but what we know we need to probably start doing. So if you're working on any |
| 1:36.3 | kind of like relationship issues, if you're working on developing and encouraging more |
| 1:42.3 | intimacy in your life, if you're wanting to bring in more fun, |
| 1:48.2 | cute, connected moments in your life, Tuesday's astrology is for you. Monday and Tuesday. |
| 1:56.2 | Wednesday gets a little weird, but then we're back on Thursday, so it's okay. But Monday and |
| 2:00.8 | Tuesday, |
| 2:01.1 | I really want us to think about how to go outside or normal routines, how to work a little bit, |
| 2:10.8 | or how to lean into the work or the effort of something that is going to bring us big reward. We tend not to do things that require us to put in |
| 2:24.3 | a considerable effort. We tend to go towards whatever is easiest. But Venus is still in Virgo on |
| 2:31.9 | Tuesday. And Venus and Virgo is like, no, you should really work for |
| 2:35.7 | some of this. You should actually try a little harder. You might get somewhere that's really good. |
