Summary

Episode 124

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 May 1st, 2023, requires that we bolster our systems for deep exfoliation. On Monday, there’s an illuminating Mercury cazimi, which gives us a day of clarity amid the retrograde cycle. Also on Monday, Pluto (the planet of transformation) stations retrograde, pulling focus on themes of power and agency. On Thursday, Venus (the planet of love) squares Neptune (the planet of daydreams) and sextiles Jupiter (the planet of abundance), setting us up for a day that is full of delight — and possible excess. Then, on Friday, the week’s major astrology happens: There’s a lunar eclipse in Scorpio, which activates release, catharsis, and general intensity. This is the last one of its kind for the next two decades. Lastly, on Sunday, Venus moves into Cancer, blessing the part of our charts that contains the sign of the crab. Since the big news this week is the lunar eclipse in Scorpio, allow yourself the space to process your emotions and find closure where you need it.

All right, y'all,

0:37.1

this week we've got a very wild-looking eclipse.

0:42.7

The eclipse happens at the end of the week.

0:45.5

It's happening on Friday, May 5th.

0:48.5

It is the last eclipse that we're going to have in Scorpio near the South Node for like a couple of decades. So it is the ending of

0:56.6

a story that has been going on in our chart and in our life for the past year. And this is a

1:03.9

Scorpio eclipse. So Scorpio loves an ending. Scorpio loves a deep and transformative experience. This is also a South Node eclipse,

1:13.9

which means it is about letting go and releasing and clearing something away. So because of the

1:21.4

transformational quality of Scorpio, because Scorpio is a sign that speaks about death and rebirth and regeneration and, yes,

1:31.0

again, transformation. And because it's a South Node eclipse, which is about releasing letting go.

1:36.4

And because it's the last of this series of South Node eclipses in Scorpio, we can expect this to be

1:43.0

a fairly dramatic closure. Eclipses are times of endings and

1:48.3

beginnings. And this one definitely, again, in many ways, looks like an ending or a closure. Or again,

1:56.2

a transformation or a transmutation. This is an alchemical process. Now, the thing about alchemy is this.

2:04.2

We have to have a really sturdy container to alchemize emotions within. So the sturdy container is
