Summary
Episode 239
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 July 14th, 2025, continues serving up confusion in our communications. Mercury begins its backtrack through Leo, calling lots of attention to all our crossed wires. And Mars meets up with the South Node in Virgo, prompting us to let go of the need for perfection in the fight for liberation and find a new focus for our critical eye. So check in with those close to you to figure out what’s working and what isn’t. Now’s the time to double-check the details and ditch what’s out of date.
Let’s get into it.
This episode covers:
Uranus in Gemini
The start of Mercury’s retrograde on Thursday, July 17th
Mercury’s sextile to Venus on Friday, July 18th
Mars’ conjunction with the South Node on Sunday, July 20th
