Summary
Episode 131
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 June 19th, 2023, gives us a good reason to celebrate. On Monday, Jupiter (the planet of growth) makes a sextile to Saturn (the planet of boundaries), revealing abundance in the commitments we have made. On Wednesday, the Sun moves into Cancer and marks the solstice, initiating a new season of joy and revelry with friends and loved ones. Also on Wednesday, Mercury (the planet of communication) makes a sextile to Mars (the planet of action), which helps us to move in the direction we want with courage and conviction. On Sunday, Mercury squares Neptune (the planet of dreams and illusions), which can muddle practical details. It’s a great week to honor the connection we share with each other and the cycles we live within. Enjoy.

| 0:06.3 | Chani, Nicholas. In this podcast, we talk about the quality of time that we're about to go live |
| 0:14.4 | through. And in this episode, we're going to talk about the week of June 19th and how to best work with this week, |
| 0:24.6 | what to keep in mind, what to look out for, what to watch out for, and what to celebrate. |
| 0:31.3 | And what greater thing to celebrate than the solstice. |
| 0:37.8 | In this podcast, we look at the astrology of the upcoming week |

| 1:01.4 | Thank you. Download the Chani app for iPhone. No matter what hemisphere you're in, the solstice is a time of peak experience. It's either the shortest day or the longest |
| 1:09.5 | day. And either way, it's a moment of extreme that our |
| 1:16.3 | ancestors from time immemorial took note of, right? We need to understand the cycles and the seasons |
| 1:24.1 | and the ways in which the sun impacts us are great and massive. |
| 1:30.1 | And before we had electricity and heat and all these fancy things, we had the sun. |
| 1:35.3 | And so I think I feel that it's not that far off to say it's baked into our DNA, maybe way, way, way back. |
| 1:46.4 | But it's in there that this would be a moment that we would mark collectively. And if you're in a community that does so, then great. And if |
| 1:53.4 | you're not, you might think about how to rally your best and sweetest pals and family members and people that feel like family members. |
| 2:03.1 | Because this solstice is the son's entrance into cancer. |
