The Sun

Solar activity was at moderate levels. Region 3435 (N09E03, Dki/beta) produced a long-duration M1.2/Sf flare at 22/0336 UTC. The flare was due to an approximate 17 degree filament structure lifting off beginning at 22/0153 UTC. A likely associated CME was observed off the NE limb in SOHO/LASCO C2 imagery beginning at 22/0224 UTC. Region 3435 also produced an M1.9/Sf flare at 22/2300 UTC. At 22/0645 UTC, another filament eruption was observed centered near N36W05. An associated CME was observed off the NNW limb beginning at 22/0736 UTC. Both CMEs were modelled with a potential glancing blow early to midday on 24 Sep.

The solar kp index is quiet, with no changes to retrograde effects. The solar wind speed is currently normal.

Solar wind parameters were at nominal levels. Solar wind speed averaged around 400 km/s. Total field ranged from 2-5 nT while the Bz component was between +3/-4 nT. Phi angle was variable.

Moon Is In Capricorn

Well, buckle up my celestial stargazers, because the Moon is currently punching the time card in the hardworking sign of Capricorn! Now, I'm not saying it's putting on a suit and tie or anything—although with a distance of 375,034.583996880km away, who knows what sort of lunar shenanigans are going on up there? Maybe it's engaging in some zero gravity yoga or perhaps it's knitting tiny moon-rock sweaters for all its crater buddies. Capricorn, being the steadfast goat of the zodiac, is as practical and organized as they come. It's like that friend who color-codes their sock drawer and has all their spices arranged alphabetically. So, if you've been procrastinating on sorting out your life, now's a good time to channel your inner Capricorn. Make a list, check it twice, or thrice, or hey, why not go the full nine yards and make a spreadsheet? And remember, Capricorn's influence isn't limited to making to-do lists. This Earth sign is all about climbing those metaphorical mountains. So, grab your hiking boots, or more aptly your mental grappling hooks, and get ready to tackle the big stuff. Whether it's finishing that novel you've been writing or finally figuring out how to program your futuristic coffee maker, now is the time! The Moon in Capricorn is also a great time for some serious contemplation. Consider this a celestial timeout for some deep thinking. So, yes, feel free to spend an evening philosophizing about whether Schrodinger's cat prefers wet food or dry. But let's not forget the most important part of this lunar-Capricorn combo: balance. Just like our pal Benjamin Sisko from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, it's all about keeping things in equilibrium. So, between all the organizing and mountain climbing, make sure to find some time for fun. Maybe have a dance-off with your Roomba or start a philosophical debate with your toaster. Remember, my dear astro-nuts, the universe is as full of laughter as it is of quantum physics. Now go forth, and may your lunar-Capricorn journey be as balanced as a Vulcan's logic and as fun as a Tribble on Red Bull!

Mercury

Mercury is in Virgo

Mercury is prograde at 12 Vir 10' 31", moving at 1.07 degrees per day, and is 144843968km away and receding.

Mercury Is In Virgo

Ahoy, space travelers! Strap on your nerdy glasses and prepare for a cosmic journey as Mercury, our solar system's resident chatterbox, settles into the meticulous realm of Virgo. Now, before we get started, let's do a quick refresher on the astronomical basics, shall we? Mercury, sitting pretty at a whopping 144,626,048.621878356km away (give or take a few thousand kilometers – space GPS can be a bit wonky), is currently doing its fancy footwork in a prograde motion. Which, for those not fluent in astro-babble, means it's moving in the same direction as us earthlings. No backward shenanigans today! As Mercury moonwalks into Virgo, it's like a cosmic librarian has taken over the interstellar airwaves. Our mental processes become as sharp as a Vulcan's ears, our words are as precise as a Klingon Bat'leth, and we suddenly find ourselves communicating with the efficiency of C3PO. Sugar-coating? Nah, that’s for those Jupiter-in-Pisces days. Right now, we're all about cutting through the cosmic clutter and getting straight to the point. Virgo, the cosmic equivalent of a Swiss Army knife, has this knack for absorbing information like a black hole and stripping out everything that’s about as useful as a chocolate teapot. So while Mercury pirouettes through Virgo, our intellectual lightsabers are at full power, slicing through the fluff and communicating our thoughts in high-definition clarity. Now, I won't lie to you, folks. Mercury in Virgo isn't exactly a wild, intergalactic party. It's more like a productive brainstorming session in the Starfleet Academy library. But fear not! The chances to make real progress during this transit are as vast as the Andromeda galaxy. We can finally escape the tractor beam of dead-end ideas and circular conversations, focusing instead on the minutiae and actionable information. Talk about forward warp speed! But beware, brave stargazers! While Virgo's critical eye can often be as helpful as Spock in a crisis, we risk going full-on Dalek during this transit, obsessing over imperfections and blasting everything with our criticism ray guns. It's crucial that we channel more of a diplomatic Picard vibe, refining our speech and sharing our opinions with tact and kindness. After all, no one likes a grumpy Wookiee, right? So there you have it, space cadets! As

Venus

Venus is in Leo

Venus is prograde at 18 Leo 25' 42", moving at 0.59 degrees per day, and is 69983340km away and receding.

Venus Is In Leo

Alright, stargazers, strap in because Venus has just slipped into Leo like a starlet donning her most ostentatious fur coat. It's like a cosmic episode of RuPaul's Drag Race - everyone's ramping up the drama and expecting to be adored. I mean, who needs a quiet night in when you can have love shouted from rooftops? Venus in Leo is not about subtlety. It’s the celestial equivalent of that friend who insists on karaoke every Friday night and only ever sings 'Bohemian Rhapsody' with full-on interpretive dance. Expect grand gestures, big feelings, and the occasional tantrum if they're not the center of attention. You see, with Venus in Leo, it’s not enough to just be appreciated; we want a standing ovation, a dozen roses, and our name up in lights. It’s all about being adored, folks. But remember, while we're all busy demanding a star on the Walk of Fame, it's important not to forget there is no "i" in "we." If you keep insisting on solo performances, you might just find yourself doing a one-person show. Now let's talk about money. When Venus is in Leo, we tend to throw caution to the wind and treat ourselves to the glitz and glamour. Think less budget-conscious Virgo and more "I just won the lottery" indulgence. But remember, Leo is also a generous sign. So, while you're out splashing the cash on sequins and feather boas, don't forget to spoil your loved ones too. In short, Venus in Leo is like a shot of adrenaline to your love life. It's bright, it's bold, it's dramatic, and it's a heck of a lot of fun. So, take a cue from the cosmos and let your inner diva roar! Just remember to save some of the spotlight for the rest of us.

Pluto

Mars

Mars is in Libra

Mars is prograde at 17 Lib 22' 20", moving at 0.66 degrees per day, and is 378864118km away and receding.

Mars Is In Libra

Listen up, stargazers! The Red Planet, Mars, has decided to swipe right and match with Libra. While they're about 378,855,239.477256536km apart (talk about a long-distance relationship!), this celestial union is set to shake up your world! Now, relationships are like the gravitational pull of a planet – sometimes they keep you grounded, other times, they send you spiraling into deep space. And with Mars doing its cosmic cha-cha in Libra's ballroom, you're going to be hyper-aware of the intricate dance of your relationships. While Mars is normally the rowdy, "let's fight for the last slice of pizza" type, its journey through Libra transforms it into a peacekeeper faster than you can say "quantum mechanics". Instead of picking fights or acting on impulse, you'll find yourself channeling your inner diplomat, working towards creating a universe where peace and love rule. However, keep an eye out for those pesky black holes of denial. It may be tempting to stick your head in the stardust and pretend everything's as fine as a binary star system in perfect synchrony, but remember, denial is not just a river on Earth! Repressing feelings won't make them disappear like a comet passing behind the sun. Instead, use this period to address difficult topics with the grace of a ballet-practicing astronaut in zero gravity. Libra, the celestial judge Judy, will inspire you to stand up and fight for justice and equality, even though it's typically passive. It's ready to duel with lightsabers if it means maintaining balance. But beware of the inevitable "paralysis by analysis". Mars wants to rocket through decisions, while Libra wants to ponder over every possible outcome like Sheldon Cooper deciding on the best spot to sit. But here's the secret formula: if your actions are infused with love, intention, and fairness, you're already making the right moves. So, gear up, my cosmic voyagers! It's time to navigate the Martian-Libran terrain with poise, compassion, and a good dose of humor. And remember, the stars might guide us, but it's our actions that shape our destiny. Safe travels!

Pluto

Jupiter

Jupiter is in Taurus

Jupiter is retrograde at 15 Tau 00' 01", moving backwards at 0.06 degrees per day, and is 629520651km away and approaching.

Jupiter Is In Taurus

Greetings, star gazers and cosmic junkies! Now, I know we're all still trying to understand why Pluto was downgraded to a dwarf planet. (Really, astronomers? That's not very size inclusive.) But let's park that space buggy for a moment and focus on the big picture - Jupiter, the rotund ruler of the cosmos, has sidled into Taurus, the zodiac's most stubborn sign. It's like when you spot a sumo wrestler in a china shop; you just know things are about to get interesting! Jupiter is the Mr. Miyagi of our solar system, always encouraging us to ponder, to question, to seek wisdom. And Taurus, well, Taurus is the cosmic equivalent of a tranquillized sloth. So when these two sync up, it's a gentle nudge from the universe that we don't need to go spelunking in the spiritual abyss to find answers. They're right there with us, probably tucked under the sofa cushions along with loose change and old pizza crumbs. This Jupiter-Taurus mashup is your green light to buckle down and make some serious progress towards your dreams. You'll feel a sudden surge to whip out neon post-it notes, create elaborate to-do lists, and tick off tasks like you're on a mission from Mars. Jupiter's infectious growth spurt combined with Taurus’ steadfastness will have you reaching for stars and actually grabbing a handful. Now, here comes the juicy part. Jupiter is the galactic good luck charm, and Taurus is basically Scrooge McDuck swimming in gold coins. This means that while Jupiter is lounging in Taurus, life can become a prosperity piñata. It's a cosmic jackpot where every pull is a win. So take this opportunity to give your financial status a once-over and see where you can plant seeds for growth. However, Taurus, that old hedonist, does love indulgence. It's like the zodiac's golden retriever – it wants all the treats, all the time. So when Jupiter, the planet of expansion, rolls into town, we may find ourselves confusing needs with wants. It's important to remember not to go overboard. We need to be patient and not blow all our fortune on a spaceship because it has a cool laser beam. So, fellow cosmic adventurers, as we navigate this new intergalactic pairing, let's remember to keep our feet on the ground (or at least within the Earth's gravitational pull) and our minds open

Stellar Shindigs: Saturn Takes a Pisces Plunge

Alright, stargazers, buckle up! Our old buddy Saturn, the cosmic taskmaster, has parked his celestial keister in Pisces, the dreamy fish of the zodiac. That's like having your high school principal show up at a Grateful Dead concert.

But before you cringe and start looking for the nearest exit, take a deep breath. This isn't the time to run from the stern gaze of Saturn - it's the time to embrace it. Remember that one time when you daydreamed about opening a vegan food truck or building a wormhole generator? Now's the time to dust off those dreams and give 'em a good long look. Get out your notepad and start jotting down those business plans or physics equations.

Don't get me wrong, Saturn in Pisces isn't all rainbows and unicorns. Imagine your dad barging into your room, insisting on cleaning up your mess, even though you've clearly marked it as a "no-go zone". That's Saturn in Pisces. It might feel intrusive and uncomfortable, but trust me, you'll thank him later. So open up, let him in, and listen to his advice - no matter how much it feels like a lecture!

And hey, with all these extra thoughts floating around in the Piscean pool, don't be surprised if your sleep takes a hit. You might find yourself becoming more nocturnal than an owl at a night market. Don't fight it. Embrace the insomnia, meditate, take a walk among the trees, or even take a power nap (but keep that dream journal nearby). Heck, you might want to hit the hay a bit early just to give your brain some downtime. Because, if you listen closely, you'll find that Saturn's stern lectures are actually brimming with wisdom.

So, there you have it! Saturn in Pisces, folks - a mix of stern discipline and dreamy inspiration, like your high school principal leading a psychedelic rock band. It might seem a little weird at first, but trust me, it's going to be one heck of a ride!

Pluto

Uranus

Uranus is in Taurus

Uranus is retrograde at 22 Tau 48' 57", moving backwards at 0.02 degrees per day, and is 2843339139km away and approaching.

Uranus Is In Taurus

Well, hello there, my celestial explorers! Brace yourself for a journey across the cosmic plains to the realm of Uranus, which, by the way, is waltzing on the dance floor of Taurus right now. And let me tell you, it's causing quite the stargazing stir. Oh, and did I mention that Uranus is currently in retrograde? That's like doing the moonwalk on the surface of the moon itself. Talk about meta! Now, Taurus, bless its celestial hooves, is a creature of habit and comfort, much like your favorite uncle who insists on wearing his lucky socks to every family gathering. Yes, Taurus is that uncle, who would rather stick with his beloved flip phone than upgrade to a smartphone, because, well, "it still works perfectly!" Here comes Uranus, though, the interstellar equivalent of a tech-savvy teenager, ready to disrupt Taurus' comfy, cozy world with the equivalent of a cosmic software update. And let me tell you, there's no 'Remind Me Tomorrow' button on this one. Speaking of updates, your financial apps might be in for a surprise, too. With Uranus in Taurus, we might see some revolutionary changes in how we handle our Galactic Credits. We're talking brand-new currencies, a potential reboot of the banking system, and if the stars align just right, a seismic shake-up in the housing and stock markets. You might want to buckle up, my friends; it's going to be a wild space ride. On a more personal note, expect some light saber-like clarity slicing through your relationship with money and material possessions. We're being called to break free from the Sarlacc Pit of debt, taxes, and credit card interest. It's time to let go of the Death Star-sized burden of rent and mortgages. Remember, Uranus is all about liberation, and resistance, as they say in a galaxy far, far away, is futile. So, let's welcome these changes with open arms (or tentacles, or whatever you've got). They might just lead us to a new frontier of stability and prosperity. And remember, the force—and Uranus—is with you. Always.

Neptune

Neptune is in Pisces

Neptune is retrograde at 26 Pis 10' 01", moving backwards at 0.03 degrees per day, and is 4324131913km away and receding.

Neptune Is In Pisces

Well, smegheads! It seems Neptune has decided to take a little vacation in the land of Pisces. Now, for those of you scratching your heads, let me shed some light on the situation. Neptune, the big, bluish gas giant that's about as many kilometers away as your average sci-fi novel has plot holes, has decided to hit the retrograde button. Easier than trying to parallel park that massive thing, I suppose. And what does this mean for you, dear earthlings? Well, it's a bit like being handed a pair of X-ray glasses at a superhero convention. Suddenly, you're seeing all sorts of things you never noticed before, like how utterly pointless it is to argue about whether Star Trek is better than Star Wars. (For the record, it’s Red Dwarf.) With Neptune lounging in Pisces, we're given a golden opportunity to come together, much like the assembly of a flat-pack furniture. Only this time, the instructions are clear, the pieces fit, and no one ends up throwing a screwdriver through the window. This cosmic alignment is your VIP invitation to explore your emotional depth, kind of like diving into a pool filled with Jell-O. It's squishy, it's weird, but oh boy, is it fun. You might even discover gifts you never knew you had. Maybe you can sing in Elvish, or perhaps you’re fantastic at making balloon animals – who knows? Now is the perfect time to dabble in spiritual hobbies, like meditating with crystals or becoming one with your indoor plants. Neptune in Pisces is basically nudging you towards sharing these newfound discoveries on your SpaceBook page or GalacticGram profile. Just remember to use the appropriate hashtags like #NeptuneInPisces, #EmotionalDeepDive, and #NotAnotherCatVideo. So, gear up, cosmic voyagers! Neptune’s retrograde tour in Pisces is about unity, understanding, and finding humor in the little things. Just like that one time when Lister tried to convince Rimmer he was the king of the potato people. Ah, good times!

A Cosmic Standoff: Pluto in Capricorn

Alright, space cadets, buckle up! Our old friend Pluto - no, not the Disney dog, the other one, the 'not-quite-a-planet-but-we-love-him-anyway' one - is currently taking a joyride through the stoic sign of Capricorn. Now, imagine a chilled-out hippie (like yours truly) trying to run a Fortune 500 company. That's kind of what we're dealing with here.

You see, the cosmic energy of Pluto and Capricorn together is like mixing oil with... well, more oil. Both are all about that power and success, hustling 24/7, working towards that big bang of achievement. They're like the ultimate power couple of the zodiac world. Beyoncé and Jay Z, who?

But here's the catch, my star-gazing comrades. With great power comes... a potential disregard for anyone else's opinion. Yup, you might find yourself giving side-eye to anyone who dares to have a different perspective. It's like Pluto and Capricorn are hosting a party and they've forgotten to invite compassion.

However, Pluto isn't just about flexing its muscles in this cosmic gym. This distant chunk of icy rock also wants us to kick our bad habits into the outer stratosphere. We're talking about those pesky patterns that are about as useful as an inflatable dartboard. But remember, in the process of this celestial spring cleaning, some destruction is bound to happen. Just make sure it's the constructive kind, not the 'I-just-spilled-my-latte-on-my-laptop' type.

So there you have it, folks. Pluto in Capricorn, a cosmic drama of power, ambition, and a dash of intolerance. Keep your wits about you, stay flexible to different ideas, and remember to recycle those old habits into stardust. Happy star-sailing!

Confusion, uncertainty, and delusions of grandeur characterize this transit. Be alert for deception. Avoid becoming the martyr today just because your self-confidence may be low. Don't buy into every sob story that comes your way and don't play the "poor, poor pitiful me" game. Be careful with contracts. In general, be prepared for any kind of possible misunderstanding.Those people born under a challenging aspect between the Sun and Neptune often struggle with a desire to be something special or to experience something more than the ordinary. They are day-dreamers and idealists. It is easy for these people to trust others, even (and perhaps especially) people who might seem from the outside looking in as unsavory types. They are looking to identify with something beyond what is normally expected of people.Most have in common a childhood that didn’t help the natives direct or define their lives. Perhaps the early family life was lacking in supervision or clearly defined rules. A father figure may have been absent or distant and ineffective. Many people with these aspects have a glorified image of their fathers. Whether the image is very positive or very negative (or if it swings between these extremes), the image is not very clear or rational. Whatever the case may be, these people struggle with defining who they are. They might gravitate towards the “wrong people”, or get in with the “wrong crowd” in an attempt to define who they are. They might be susceptible to being taken advantage of by others, especially by men or authority figures. They can be easily led astray by peculiar desires or self-destructive habits. In order to add a greater-than-ordinary dimension of experience to their lives that helps them to feel special and important, they might be attracted to Neptune-ruled behaviors, such as secret affairs, drugs, or other escapist behaviors. In some way, these people feel a strong urge to glamorize their role in the world. In extreme cases, the natives are completely deluded. However, in most cases, there is simply some confusion about the past (such as remembering childhood experiences in ways that are far removed from reality), and a tendency to daydream about being someone more “important” than they assume they are. They may struggle with early conditioning that made them feel tossed aside or neglected in some way, and certainly not directed and supported.These people are very sensitive, especially with regards to any real or imagined blows to their ego. If the natal chart shows a strong sense of reality and a robust mind (Mercury and Saturn well-placed, for example), the negative interpretations of this aspect are less extreme. Still, the natives are likely to recognize at some point in their lives that they have a tendency to engage in escapist and self-destructive fantasies and/or habits. It is useful to be able to connect these behaviors with their probable source, which is likely to be a weakly-defined ego and identity in childhood.Some Famous People with Sun in Hard Aspect to Neptune: Squares – Anjelica Huston, Jennifer Aniston, Kevin Costner, Cameron Diaz; Oppositions – Sheena Easton.

You can make important changes in your life and in yourself today. The force of your will and the perception to see what needs changing combine to give you the ability to do whatever is required. Regeneration is possible in any area of your life. Change that bad habit, eliminate what is unnecessary or outmoded. You have the force with you today. Group activities can be especially rewarding today as you can help make the groups' goals a reality. People in authority are receptive to changes today. Lay that new idea on them.It is easy and natural for those born under a harmonious aspect between the Sun and Pluto to find a passion and pursue it, and to focus on a goal. These people are not much scared of anything. They enjoy and embrace growth, especially of the psychological kind. They love a good mystery, and they are adept at solving it. Many people with these aspects feel they have a “calling” or destiny. They readily assign meaning to what others might consider “ordinary” events. They look for symbols, and read between the lines in most any situation. The physical vitality is generally strong, and the body is usually able to heal quickly.Others tend to respect those born under a harmonious aspect between the Sun and Pluto. They are not afraid to get their hands dirty, and they are usually quick to help others–not only with mundane tasks, but also on a spiritual or psychological level. Their insight is sharp and sometimes awe-inspiring. These are perceptive people who are not easily rattled or surprised in life. They are not do-gooders, and they are unlikely law-breakers. However, they are not afraid of the “dark side” of human nature, and they will bend the rules from time to time if they feel the need to do so. Many take particular pleasure in growth and life’s lessons. They are not fond of superficiality, and are generally the first to spot pretense of any kind. Some experiment with their powers to deceive at some early point in their lives, but generally grow in their strength and integrity. In fact, many do their best to rid themselves of any self-delusion that we are all susceptible to at times. These people are passionate and can be intense. They have a hunger to experience more than just an “ordinary” life, and they can be quite ambitious. Some are perfectionists, demanding much from themselves and reasonable amounts of effort and honesty from others.The trine aspect is the more dynamic of the two harmonious aspects. Those with the sextile can call upon the talents of this aspect when necessary, and those with the trine have incorporated the traits of the aspect into their personalities, expressing them naturally and consistently.Famous People with Sun in easy aspect to Pluto: Sextiles – Christina Aguilera, Lisa Bonet, Bob Dylan; Trines – Ed Asner, James Caan, Nicolas Cage, Michael Caine, Susan Dey, Sam Donaldson, Chris Evert, Bette Midler.Note from Annie: I have perhaps used more words to describe Sun-Pluto aspects than I have with other planetary aspects. This is because I grew up with astrology books that offered rather dire and extreme descriptions of the aspects. Because of this, I had problems identifying with the interpretations of my own Sun conjunction Pluto as being “power-hungry”, “dominating”, and “controlling”. Some descriptions suggested an attraction to crime. Except in extreme cases, Sun-Pluto people are not extremists hell-bent on destroying or dominating everyone around them. However, they do need to come to terms with their “dark side”, their intense fears, and their tendency to be very self-protective. A more humane and psychological approach to defining the aspects can be found in many modern astrology books, and I think it is very beneficial, especially since one of the main challenges to overcome with Sun-Pluto is for the rational ruler of light (the Sun) to identify with the energies of the ruler of dark (Pluto). Nobody benefits if descriptions of the aspects are so extreme that they are quickly dismissed as “wrong”.

Harmony in social activities is highlighted today. Activities with the opposite sex are enjoyable and rewarding. Romance is in your blood. Show someone you care for them. They will appreciate your sharing your feelings. Clean your house and do that redecorating you had planned. Make your surroundings more beautiful.It is easy for these people to attract attention of the positive kind. They radiate charm, vitality, and enthusiasm on some level that others appreciate. Not inclined to try to cover up their flaws, these people have a way of presenting themselves in a straightforward manner, and their ability to admit their mistakes and their fumbles only adds to their charm. They find it easy and natural to get along with both sexes quite equally. They possess considerable creative talent, but whether or not they use it is dependent on other factors. They may take their own talents for granted and often need some kind of stimulus or encouragement to do something with them. One of the reasons for this is the fact that their creativity comes so naturally to them that they may be surprised when others recognize their talents. Similarly, they usually possess athletic ability and may need some encouragement to develop it.The trine aspect is the more dynamic of the two harmonious aspects.

Notes about Transits

Mars is all about action, and where Mars is in our chart with transits is a place where we are prepared to stand our ground. Mars transits can be really productive, but they can also be angsty, aggressive, and sometimes come from a place of anger. It's important to pay attention to how you direct that energy. Mars transits can last for up to a couple weeks.
Jupiter transits enhance your life with optimism and forward-thinking, and lasting for about a month, give you plenty of time to take advantage. Bigger and better is Jupiter's way of thinking, and should be yours as well.
Saturn transits, on the other hand, are where we get a major reality check, and if we’re not ready for them, they can be pretty rotten. Of course, if we’re prepared and up to the task, Saturn transits can also bring very well-deserved rewards, too. Saturn transits last a bit longer than Jupiter transits—usually 2 months or so at a time, but with retrograde cycles, you could be looking at the same lessons three times over a 6 month period.
The outer planets, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto last for such a long time that they make long-lasting impacts on our lives. In fact, Neptune and Pluto can last for two to three years! Consider their effects, plan accordingly, and make them part of your life for the better.
