Summary
Episode 268
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 February 2nd, 2026, asks us to get the message. In the wake of shake-ups from last week’s Full Moon in Leo, Uranus — the planet of disruption — stations direct in Taurus, issuing a warning about injustice and encouraging us to get creative with our rage. Then Mercury and Venus both make a square to Uranus, further emphasizing our need for collective liberation. Now is the time to clarify the connections and causes that matter most — before eclipse season starts.
This episode covers:
The Full Moon in Leo on Sunday, February 1st
The end of Uranus’ retrograde on Tuesday, February 3rd
Mercury’s square to Uranus on Thursday, February 5th
Mercury’s entrance into Pisces on Friday, February 6th
Venus’ square to Uranus on Sunday, February 8th

| 0:00.0 | Three things about this week. One, from Monday to Thursday, we have a last chance at clarity, |
| 0:08.9 | especially in regards to our communications. After Thursday, things are going to get soupy and messy and |
| 0:16.6 | confusing, and it doesn't mean we can't find clarity, but it's going to be harder to attain. |
| 0:22.8 | Number two, we're going to have some jarring, awakening conversations or briefings or text exchanges |
| 0:31.8 | or some kind of headline, God forbid, is going to be breaking news. I'm sorry. It's just what the |
| 0:40.5 | astrology is saying. Number three, we are coming down off of a really loud, huge, massive, |
| 0:49.4 | dramatic full moon and Leo. So let us take a beat, regain composure, and move forward, knowing that our |
| 0:58.1 | tank is probably a little bit on empty. Hello and welcome. This is the Astrology of the |
| 1:05.1 | week ahead podcast. I'm your host and your Astro Bestie Chani Nicholas. In this episode, we're talking about the week |
| 1:13.1 | of February 2nd and the astrology contained therein. I'm going to say this off the top. |
| 1:20.9 | Everything is still in play. I mean that from the bottom of my heart. |
| 1:30.6 | The astrology of February is really wild. |
| 1:32.3 | It's very intense. |
| 1:41.8 | It is a whole conglomeration of little movements that spell out a game-changing type of month. |
| 1:43.0 | Again, sorry to say. |
| 1:45.3 | I wish I could just say, oh, it's going to be super boring and nothing's going to happen. I don't think that it's going to be surprising, |
| 1:54.0 | although it might be shocking. I don't think that what this month holds, I'm recording this |
| 1:59.7 | in January. I know everybody drags me for doing this, but I am not recording this in real time. |
| 2:04.6 | I'm recording this in Capricorn season, so I'm not too far behind, but I'm behind. |
| 2:08.6 | The full moon that just happened, depending on when you're listening to this, on Sunday the first, the full moon that happens in Leo, is really loud and it's very obvious |
| 2:21.0 | and it looks very awakening, meaning it could feel really rude. It could bring about an |
| 2:28.0 | eruption of events that break open public consciousness, awareness. It could mobilize people. We're in Aquarius season, |
