RETROGRADE REPORT for
16 December, 2023
 
What's Up Today?

There are currently 3 planets in retrograde:

Howdy, star gazers! So, you're interested in planetary retrograde, eh? Well, pull up a beanbag chair and let's chat. But first, grab your 3D glasses. Wait, wrong era... never mind.

Let's start with the messenger of the gods, Mercury, chillin' in Capricorn. This guy's got the speed of Usain Bolt and the mood swings of a teenager. When in retrograde, expect miscommunications, technology snafus and travel delays. But don't fret! Just think of it as a cosmic version of playing broken telephone, but with your life. #MercuryRetrograde

Next, we've got Venus, our lovey-dovey planet, currently in Scorpio. Now, Venus in retrograde is like a romantic comedy, but without the comedy. Expect old flames to reappear, relationship hiccups, and a sudden urge to rethink your wardrobe. So, brace yourself for some emotional turbulence. #VenusRetrograde

Mars, our warrior planet, is vacationing in Sagittarius. When Mars goes retrograde, it's like a superhero without their powers. Tempers may flare, motivation may dwindle, and you might feel like you're running on a hamster wheel. But hey, at least you're getting some exercise! #MarsRetrograde

Jupiter, the big guy, is hanging out in Taurus. Jupiter retrograde is like winning the lottery but losing the ticket. Opportunities may seem to slip through your fingers, but remember, it's just a cosmic joke. You'll get your big break once Jupiter gets its act together. #JupiterRetrograde

Saturn, our taskmaster, is swimming in Pisces. Saturn retrograde is a bit like having your strictest teacher from school back into your life. Expect life lessons and responsibilities to pile up. But hey, who doesn't love a good challenge? #Saturn
