There are currently 3 planets in retrograde:

Stardate 41386.4, aka, "oh no, not another retrograde."

Engage, my star-seeking friends! Prepare for a cosmic charade of planetary proportions! Our celestial friends are putting on quite the show, and like a Klingon at a peace treaty signing, things are about to get... interesting. So buckle up, set phasers to stunning and let's dive into this astrological anomaly!

First off, we have Mercury in Leo. Now, this is like having a Ferengi in charge of the Starfleet budget – lots of loud proclamations, grand gestures, and absolutely no subtlety. Expect communication to be as subtle as a photon torpedo – it's time to roar like the lion you are!

Venus, our lady of love, is also hanging out in Leo. That's like having Counselor Troi at a poker game, reading everyone's emotions and laying it all out on the table. Expect a lot of passion, drama, and possibly some very intense staring contests.

Mars in Virgo is like having a Vulcan running your battle simulations. All logic, strategy, and a touch of pedantic perfectionism. Use this energy to make your move – whether it's a strategic strike against the Romulans or simply organizing your sock drawer.

Jupiter in Taurus is like Riker in command – reliable, steadfast, and just a touch self-indulgent. Embrace the coziness, but don't be afraid to seek out new life and new civilizations (or perhaps just a new pizza joint).

Saturn in Pisces is akin to a contemplative Picard, sipping Earl Grey and contemplating the mysteries of the universe. You might find yourself seeking deeper wisdom, or at the very least, a better brand of tea.

Uranus in Taurus? That's like Q popping in unannounced – expect the unexpected, preferably with a side of chaos. This is an excellent time to shake things up, defy expectations, and perhaps wear a ridiculous hat for no reason.

Neptune in Pisces has us all feeling like we're trapped in a holodeck program gone awry. Reality is feeling a bit fluid, so don't forget to check your reality stabilizers.

Lastly, we have Pluto in Capricorn – just like a Cardassian in

The moon is currently in Cancer, at 06 degrees, 31' 11", at a velocity of 12.19 degrees per day.

The New moon is currently 28.1 days old. It is 399033.05 km from the centre of the Earth.

The next new moon is at 18:33:06, 17 Jul 2023. The next full moon is at 18:33:26, 1 Aug 2023.

Solar wind parameters were indicative of waning transient influence and a negative polarity CH HSS. Total field steadily decreased from 14 nT to 7 nT over the course of the period. The Bz component was mostly at or near neutral with the exception of a brief southward deflection reaching -7 nT between 15/0836 and 15/1007 UTC. During that time the DSCOVR spacecraft seemingly indicated an increase in solar wind speeds from ~400 Km/s to 500 Km/s which then steadily increased to speeds near 600 Km/s. However, when comparing this to the ACE spacecrafts measurement of only ~350 Km/s to ~400 Km/s, the measurement at DSCOVR is likely non-physical and inaccurate. Yet, the increase in solar wind speeds at both spacecraft likely indicate the anticipated arrival of the faster solar wind from a negative polarity CH HSS. Phi was predominantly negative.

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.
