NOTE: GOES X-Ray Flux, Electron Flux, and Proton Flux data went offline at 24/2125 UTC due to a network outage. Data began to come in around 25/1200 UTC but has had a few intermittent gaps. Work is in progress to restore services.
The solar kp index is quiet, with no changes to retrograde effects. The solar wind speed is currently above average, making retrograde effects moderately increased.
Solar wind parameters reflected possible weak transient activity. The geomagnetic field increased from 6 to near 9 nT at the end of the period. A prolonged period of southward Bz reaching -7 nT was observed between 25/0035-0930 UTC. Solar wind speed ranged from 268-357 km/s. Phi angle was mostly negative. .Forecast... Mostly ambient-like solar wind conditions are expected to prevail through 27 Jun. An enhancement from the large filament eruption from late on 24 Jun is likely by late 28 Jun.
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.

Alright, let's get into some serious astrological jargon, shall we? Mercury, the planet with a major god complex and a penchant for communication, is currently chilling with Cancer, the celestial crab. Now, before you start picturing a planet-sized crustacean, let me clarify - it’s not literal! And no, Mercury hasn't developed a sudden craving for seafood. It's all about the vibes, man!
So, what does this mean? Well, Mercury in Cancer is like having that emotionally intelligent friend who always gives great advice and makes you comfort food when you're down. It's a time when our brains and hearts start dating, resulting in some serious emotion-packed brainstorming sessions.
When our cosmic messenger is hanging out with the Crab, we channel our inner Care Bears, expressing love and protection with ease. You might even feel a sudden urge to write poetry or send heartfelt texts to your loved ones at 2 a.m. Don't fight it, just go with the flow - it's the cosmic waves, dude!
Mercury's vacation in Cancer also amplifies our Spidey senses, making us more attuned to our gut feelings. You know, those weird hunches you get when something feels off? Yeah, it's time to trust those. They might seem illogical, but remember, logic is just one slice of the cosmic pizza.
And lastly, Mercury in Cancer turns us all into stellar listeners. It's like we've suddenly been gifted with elf ears – we hear everything, we understand, and we care. So, if you find yourself actually listening to your partner's rants about their favorite conspiracy theories or your aunt's lengthy descriptions of her gardening techniques, thank the stars, or well, Mercury in Cancer.
So folks, let's ride this cosmic wave and remember - keep it groovy, keep it real, and always listen with your heart, not just your ears. Until Mercury decides to switch things up again, happy star-gazing!
Venus
Venus is in Cancer
Venus is prograde at 11 Can 03' 23", moving at 1.23 degrees per day, and is 257614159km away and approaching.
These are the voyages of the starship Venus in Cancer. Its continuing mission: to explore strange new feelings, to seek out deeper connections and new levels of intimacy, and to boldly cuddle where no one has cuddled before!
Dear cosmic explorers, prepare your love phasers for this emotional rollercoaster with Venus, our beloved planet of sensitivity and affection, joining forces with the ever-nurturing Cancer. As we embark on this galactic journey, expect your romantic relationships to enter warp speed, finally leaving commitment-phobia behind like a distant asteroid field.
Set your course for home, as the gravitational pull towards family becomes stronger during this interstellar voyage. Redecorate your quarters, stock up on cozy blankets, and cultivate a safe space for all your loved ones to beam down into. If you're considering buying or selling a planetary base of operations, now is the prime time to make that quantum leap, with money-savvy Venus docking in real estate-related Cancer.
But beware, fellow spacefarers, for this celestial alignment may leave you feeling as moody as a Klingon after a raktajino-fueled binge. Emotional sensitivity levels will be set on high, leaving you vulnerable to potential heart-phaser attacks. Channel your inner Cancer and retreat to your cozy shell if necessary, but remember: vulnerability can open your heart like a wormhole, allowing love to flow through faster than the speed of light.
So strap in and enjoy the ride, cosmic voyagers, as Venus transitions from the nurturing embrace of Cancer to the roaring fires of Leo within the next 24 hours, traveling an astonishing 105,230,464.037800029km on its prograde journey. May love and laughter fill your hearts and homes as we navigate this emotional frontier together.
Live long and prosper, my dear star travelers!

Okay, folks, strap in and put your space helmets on, because Saturn is hovering in Pisces. It's like the universe's version of a grumpy grandpa visiting a psychedelic fish tank. It's not just about getting starry-eyed over the nebulae though, no, Saturn is doing some cosmic housekeeping at a whopping 1,576,278,394.181507826km away. And yes, you guessed right! The old fella's gone prograde on us. We’re talking full-on forward motion.
Now, when Saturn, our celestial taskmaster, meets Pisces, the dreamy, artsy guru of the zodiac, it's like Spock meeting a Vulcan mind-meld with Picasso. It’s time to take those daydreams of yours, you know the ones where you're writing a bestselling novel or running a successful business, and give them a Vulcan salute.
This cosmic combo is here to ensure that your dreams don't just end up as beautiful supernovae in the cosmos of your mind. They want you to get off your asteroid and make things happen. You might need to draft a business plan, draw up a budget, or beam yourself up to the bank for a loan.
Now, I won’t lie to you, Saturn in Pisces isn't always a leisurely cruise on the USS Enterprise. Saturn might be the unwelcome guest who questions your most cherished dreams, but remember, the Captain doesn’t shy away from a challenge. Instead of putting up shields and firing photon torpedoes, why not let Saturn in and listen to what it has to say? After all, this cosmic old-timer has seen more than a few star systems in its day.
With Saturn in Pisces, you might find yourself feeling like you've been beamed up to the sleepless realms of insomnia. Your usual 8-hour stasis chamber sleep might seem as elusive as a Romulan cloaking device. But fear not, my starfleet! This is the perfect time to cultivate some much-needed inner peace. Meditate, take a stroll through your local holodeck forest, or simply breathe like you’re on a vacation in the oxygen-rich atmosphere of an unexplored M-class planet.
Remember, this cosmic event is all about listening to the wisdom that the universe has to offer. So, put your tr
Uranus
Uranus is in Taurus
Uranus is prograde at 25 Tau 29' 59", moving at 0.05 degrees per day, and is 3045315581km away and approaching.
Neptune
Neptune is in Pisces
Neptune is prograde at 29 Pis 55' 18", moving at 0 degrees per day, and is 4456437604km away and approaching.
Pluto
Pluto is in Aquarius
Pluto is retrograde at 01 Aqu 28' 51", moving backwards at 0.02 degrees per day, and is 5105789177km away and approaching.
Picture this: Pluto, the wee 'planet' (we're still salty about that downgrade, aren't we?) with a heart-shaped surface feature, is hanging out in Aquarius, the sign of the water-bearer. Now, before you start picturing Pluto getting a nice splash from Aquarius' jug, remember, Aquarius is an air sign. So, no, Pluto is not getting a much-needed bath.
Pluto, the celestial equivalent of that one intense friend who always insists on deep, existential conversations at 2 AM, is all about transformation. And not just the "Oh, I think I'll cut bangs" kind, but the "I'm going to reevaluate my entire life, quit my job, and move to a Tibetan monastery" kind. Pluto doesn't do things by halves, folks.
Meanwhile, Aquarius is the sign of progress, innovation, and the odd science experiment gone wrong (or right, depending on your perspective). When these two get together, it's like a sci-fi movie plot: expect the unexpected, and then multiply it by ten.
We're talking radical shifts in science, technology, and even space travel. Who knows, maybe teleportation will finally be a thing during this transit? A girl can dream! But it's not just about cool gadgets and warp speed; it's also about humanity. This transit could see us becoming more compassionate, more empathetic, and more inclined to work together for the betterment of all.
On a personal level, Pluto in Aquarius is the cosmic kick in the pants we need to change how we view ourselves and our place in the world. Instead of being self-focused, it's time to think about what's best for all. Basically, it's about becoming more like Mr. Spock and less like Sheldon Cooper.
So, are you ready for this cosmic shake-up? Because like it or not, Pluto in Aquarius is here, and it's about to make things a whole lot more interesting!
