    The astrology of the week of April 6th, 2026, brings a surge of energy and a call to do something with it.

    The astrology of the week of March 30th, 2026, asks us to be honest about how and where we’re out of balance. While Venus’ shift into Taurus helps us ground into our creativity and connections, the Libra Full Moon spotlights any unfair power dynamics at play in the world and in our personal lives.

    Episode 275

    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 March 23rd, 2026, highlights the power structures that are failing us and asks how we want to move forward.

And when the Sun and Saturn sextile Pluto, we’re reminded of the collective liberation that’s possible if we commit to organizing our action for the long-haul. Finally, Venus’ meet-up with Chiron encourages us to learn from the trailblazers who came before. If you believe in building a better world, it’s time to lock in.
