Greetings, fellow celestial enthusiasts! Let us commence our cosmic journey with a Spock-esque eyebrow raise to the planetary alignment. 🖖 #LogicalAstrology

Mercury, that mischievous little prankster, is currently in Sagittarius. This predicament is akin to Scotty trying to install a new warp core while blindfolded and on roller skates. Expect communication to be as smooth as a Tribble's fur... after it's been through a windstorm. #MercuryInSagittarius #BeamMeUpScotty

Venus, our cosmic sweetheart, is cozied up in Libra's balanced scales. It's like she's sipping Earl Grey tea with Picard in the Captain's ready room. Love and harmony vibes will be stronger than a Vulcan nerve pinch. #VenusInLibra #MakeItSo

Mars, the celestial warrior, is also hanging out in Sagittarius. This is as if Worf decided to take a vacation and ended up at a Klingon opera. Expect your drive to have the subtlety of a phaser set to stun. #MarsInSagittarius #KlingonKaraoke

Saturn is contemplating life in Pisces, much like Data trying to understand human emotions. It's time to embrace change, even if it feels as comfortable as Kirk in a Romulan uniform. #SaturnInPisces #FullyFunctional

Uranus in Taurus is about as predictable as a game of 3D chess with Q. Expect the unexpected, and remember, resistance is futile. #UranusInTaurus #QContinuum

Neptune is washing up on Pisces' shores, creating an atmosphere that's like seeing the universe through Guinan's eyes. Dreams and intuition will flow like synthale at Ten Forward. #NeptuneInPisces #WhoopiVision

Lastly, Pluto is standing firm in Capricorn, a situation that could be likened to Odo holding Deep Space Nine together during a

The moon is currently in Gemini, at 29 degrees, 31' 36", at a velocity of 12.96 degrees per day.

The Waning Gibbous moon is currently 16.6 days old. It is 391778.86 km from the centre of the Earth.

The next new moon is at 23:32:07, 12 Dec 2023. The next full moon is at 0:33:43, 27 Dec 2023.

Solar wind parameters were at near nominal levels. Total field ranged 4-5 nT, the Bz component was +/- 4 nT, and solar wind speeds averaged at or just under 450 km/s. Phi was predominantly positive.

There is a 35% chance of solar activity, with a 15% chance of a minor event, a 1% chance of a moderate event, and a 1% chance of a strong event.
