There are currently 6 planets in retrograde:

Galactic Gossip: Your Retrograde Rundown

Alright space cadets, buckle up and prepare for liftoff because we're about to dive deep into the cosmic chaos that is planetary retrograde. And trust me, it's more tangled than your headphone wires after a good pocket tumble.

#MercuryInVirgo

First up, we've got Mercury playing hide-and-seek in Virgo. Expect your inner Sheldon Cooper to emerge as communication gets a bit...let's say 'meticulous'. Don't be surprised if you suddenly feel the urge to alphabetize your spice rack or proofread your texts like a college dissertation.

#VenusInLeo

Venus is strutting her stuff in Leo, turning the world into her personal runway. Prepare for drama, passion, and perhaps a sudden interest in bedazzling everything in sight. Remember, it's not vanity if you're just appreciating the masterpiece that is you!

#MarsInLibra

Mars is hanging out in Libra, making us all a bit more diplomatic. It's like a galactic UN meeting up there, people! So get ready to negotiate your way through conflict, bridge divides, and maybe even bring peace to the eternal war between the toilet paper over or under debaters.

#JupiterInTaurus

Jupiter's lounging in Taurus, bringing a sense of stability and practicality to our ambitions. Suddenly, building that life-size replica of the Millennium Falcon in your backyard doesn't seem so far-fetched.

#SaturnInPisces

Saturn's got its head in the clouds in dreamy Pisces. Expect to find wisdom in your daydreams and intuition. Basically, it's time to embrace your inner Yoda (minus the swamp and confusing sentence structure).

#UranusInTaurus

With Uranus also in Taurus, expect some sudden changes. Now's the perfect time to break free from routine and try something new. Like, say, quantum physics or interpretive dance. Or maybe quantum physics THROUGH interpretive dance

The moon is currently in Pisces, at 10 degrees, 13' 57", at a velocity of 15.24 degrees per day.

The Full moon is currently 15 days old. It is 363863.66 km from the centre of the Earth.

The next new moon is at 1:40:05, 15 Sep 2023. The next full moon is at 9:58:21, 29 Sep 2023.

Solar wind parameters continued at background levels. Total field strength averaged near 6 nT, Bz varied between +/-6 nT, solar wind speed averaged just over 300 km/s, and the phi angle mostly negative.

There is a 15% chance of solar activity, with a 1% chance of a minor event, a 1% chance of a moderate event, and a 1% chance of a strong event.
