There are currently 3 planets in retrograde:

Hey there, stardust siblings! Get ready to ride the cosmic rollercoaster because the planetary retrograde is set to shuffle your celestial playlist. Don't freak out though, I promise it'll be more 'Star Trek: Next Generation' than 'Battlestar Galactica'!

First stop, Mercury in Scorpio. Ah, Mercury, the cosmic email server of the universe. Right now, it's chilling in the sign of Scorpio, which is like putting Sheldon from Big Bang Theory in charge of your secret diary. Expect some deep, intense revelations, but remember, they're coming from a planet that can't decide if it's hot or cold, so take it with a grain of asteroid dust. #MercuryRetrograde #BigBangTheory

Next, we have Venus in Libra - how fitting! It's like having Bob Ross in an art supply store - happy little love and harmony everywhere! Soak it up, folks. But remember, balance is key. Don't go overboard on the cosmic love juice or you might end up painting a 'happy little accident'. #VenusInLibra #BobRoss

Meanwhile, Mars is also bunking with Scorpio. Mars, the universe's hot-headed jock, paired with Scorpio's intensity? It's like blending sriracha sauce with habanero peppers. Fiery, spicy, and not for the faint-hearted. Use this energy wisely or you might end up needing a cosmic fire extinguisher! #MarsInScorpio #SpicyLife

Jupiter's lounging in Taurus now. That's like putting Santa in a candy store - lots of expansion and abundance. Just remember, too many cosmic sweets can lead to a planetary tummy ache. #JupiterInTaurus #SantaClaus

Saturn is chilling in Pisces, which is like Professor Snape teaching a yoga class. Boundaries and discipline are needed, but with a dose of Piscean flow. The universe is telling us to bend, but not break. #SaturnInPisces #SnapeYoga

Uranus is sharing Taurus' space. This is like putting Doc Brown from 'Back to the Future' in a zen garden. Expect some sudden shifts, but also grounding. It's a cosmic reminder that even amidst chaos, we can find peace. #UranusInTaurus #Doc

Solar wind parameters indicated sustained negative polarity CH HSS influences. Total field strength was steady near 5 nT, Bz varied between +/-4 nT, and DSCOVR solar wind speed values were spurious throughout the day.

There is a 25% chance of solar activity, with a 10% chance of a minor event, a 1% chance of a moderate event, and a 1% chance of a strong event.
