The Sun

Solar activity was at moderate levels. Despite relatively meager growth, Region 3547 (N19E05, Cso/beta) produced the largest (and only) M-flare of the period: an M1/Sn flare at 12/0258 UTC. Region 3539 (N10W69, Dao/beta) had some reorganization of spots as it made its way to the western limb, but was only responsible for a few C-class flares. Region 3541 (S22W22, Dai/beta-gamma) was split into two regions, with new Region 3552 (S23W14, Cso/beta) being assigned to the new, more easterly group. New Regions 3550 (S16E21, Bxo/beta) and 3551 (N25E50, Bxo/beta) were also numbered, but were inactive.

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 were nominal. However, values observed by the DSCOVR spacecraft were suspect. Solar wind speeds were between ~475-500 km/s, total field strength averaged near 4 nT, and the Bz component underwent only weak deviations. The phi angle oscillated between the positive and negative sectors for most of the period.

There is a 20% chance of solar activity, with a 5% chance of a minor event, a 1% chance of a moderate event, and a 1% chance of a strong event.


The Moon

The waxing moon is currently in Aquarius, at 16 degrees, 54' 40", at a velocity of 14.88 degrees per day.

The Waxing Crescent moon is currently 2 days old. It is 365062.95 km from the centre of the Earth.

The next new moon is at 23:00:44, 9 Feb, 2024. The next full moon is at 12:31:19, 24 Feb, 2024.

Moon Is In Aquarius

Aye, space cadets! It's your favorite celestial stand-up comic, dishing out today's cosmic forecast with a side of quirk and quantum physics. Grab your telescopes and tighten your tin foil hats, 'cause the Moon is doing its moonwalk in Aquarius today, and it's about 362,322.668485325km away - give or take a few kilometers because, well, who's counting? Now, the Moon in Aquarius is like Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory at a Star Trek convention: it's in its element, folks! It's all about innovation, eccentricity and a dash of "beam me up, Scotty." So, expect your thoughts to be as out-of-the-box as a cat in Schrödinger's thought experiment today. Aquarians, you might feel like you're carrying the weight of a black hole in your heart, but fear not! Your emotions are just doing a lunar salsa, and it's all part of the cosmic dance. So, whether you're single, taken, or it's complicated with Mars, remember: every nebula has a silver lining! But be warned, stargazers! This lunar joyride won't last forever. In the next 24 hours, the Moon will be moon-bouncing over to Pisces. So, get ready for a shift from intellectual curiosity to deep-sea diving into the ocean of emotions. You might need a snorkel. So, whether you're navigating wormholes or just trying to survive a trip to the grocery store, remember: the universe is just a big, friendly neighborhood. And hey, if you ever feel lost, don't worry! Even the Milky Way doesn't have a clue where it's going. Until next time, keep your eyes on the skies and your heart in the stars!

Mercury in Sagittarius: The Cosmic Stand-Up Comedy

Grab your lab goggles and suspenders, folks! Mercury, our favorite celestial chatterbox, just hitched a ride into the vast realm of Sagittarius. Now, this is a bit like Sheldon Cooper trying to explain quantum physics to Joey Tribbiani. Mercury loves its details, but Sagittarius? It's all about the big picture, baby! So, as we traverse this cosmic tryst, don't be surprised if you find yourself dreaming grand dreams that make Elon Musk's Mars colonization plot look like a backyard camping trip.

With Sagittarius' boundless optimism fueling Mercury's communicative prowess, expect everything from boisterous debates on whether aliens prefer pineapple on their pizza to passionate discourses about the future of renewable energies. But remember, my stargazing friends, in all this cosmic hullabaloo, do keep a grip on your reasoning. Sagittarius might be fun at parties, but it can also turn a harmless gossip into a game of 'Telephone' where 'I like your hat' ends up as 'Your cat's under attack.'

Oh, and here's a pro tip for surviving Mercury in Sagittarius: Invest in a muzzle or a handy roll of duct tape. Sagittarius has a habit of turning Mercury into a runaway train of unfiltered thoughts. We've all had foot-in-mouth situations, but trust me, you don't want to end up swallowing your entire leg. So, before you blurt out that your boss looks like Spongebob in a suit, take a deep breath, count to ten, and maybe...don't.

On the bright side, Sagittarius is the cosmic Indiana Jones, always seeking the next adventure. With Mercury tagging along, it's the perfect time to daydream about that backpacking trip through the Amazon, or enrolling in that online course on theoretical astrophysics that you've been eyeing. Just remember to keep your feet on the ground (and maybe keep a detailed map handy).

So buckle up, fellow space nerds, it's going to be a wild ride! Mercury in Sagittarius is here to teach us the art of dreaming big while minding the small details, like not forgetting your keys while you're off chasing rainbows.

Venus

Venus Is In Sagittarius

Hello stargazers and celestial enthusiasts! Let's get ready to rumble as Venus has packed her bags and jetted off to the adventurous world of Sagittarius. She's now a whopping 187966352.401400268km away - I mean, talk about social distancing, right? Now, this isn't one of those boring family vacations. Oh no! Venus in Sagittarius is like your crazy aunt who insists on wearing tie-dye and exploring every nook and cranny of the place, while loudly proclaiming her love for life. So, buckle up, folks! Your hearts are going on a joyride and there's no stopping now. When Venus turns up the volume in Sagittarius, we suddenly feel like stepping out of our comfort zones. This is the time when you'll find yourself attracted to all things exotic. Maybe you've suddenly developed a liking for Durian fruit or have an inexplicable urge to take up Mongolian throat singing. And remember that old worn-out routine? The one that makes you yawn just thinking about it? Well, chuck it out the window because with Venus in Sagittarius, it's time for a cosmic upgrade. Get ready to trade your old ways for something bigger, brighter and so much better. If you're in a relationship, why not shake things up a bit? Book that spontaneous trip to a place where neither of you can pronounce the name. Or perhaps, sign up for that pottery class you've been eyeing. It's about keeping love adventurous and exciting. And all the single folks, keep your eyes peeled because love might just surprise you. It could be at the local book club, or maybe during a quantum physics lecture (hey, stranger things have happened!). But here's the thing, amidst all the fun and frolic, remember to stay grounded. With Venus in Sagittarius, things may seem larger than life, but don't let that fool you. It's like buying a shiny new gizmo only to realize that it doesn't actually teleport your laundry to the washing machine. Now, let's talk about money. I know, I know, we all love a little retail therapy. But with Venus in Sagittarius, you might want to keep a check on those impulsive purchases. Trust me, buying that gold-plated yodeling pickle might seem like a good idea now, but your bank balance might not agree. So, folks, as Venus pirouettes through Sagittarius, let's bask in the

Mars Is In Capricorn

Red Rover, Red Rover... Mars in Capricorn, Won't You Come Over?

Hold on to your beakers, stargazers! Our fiery friend Mars is making a grand entrance into Saturn's structured playground of Capricorn. Forget about chasing rainbow unicorns in dreamland. It's time to trade in those rose-tinted glasses for a sturdy pair of safety goggles. Mars in Capricorn is like a cosmic pep talk from Spock, urging us to logically evaluate our current situation and plot out our next steps with precision and purpose.

But fear not! This isn’t a call to transform into emotionless robots. Rather, it’s an invitation to combine Mars’s fiery ambition with Capricorn’s practicality. Think of yourself as an interstellar Indiana Jones, questing after the Holy Grail of Efficiency. This is the perfect time to dust off old plans and give them a new, effective spin. Or better yet, to boldly go where you've never gone before and set some exciting new goals.

Now, we all know that both Mars and Capricorn have a love for a good workout (even if it’s mental gymnastics). They’re not afraid to roll up their sleeves and get their hands dirty - metaphorically speaking, of course. So, don’t shy away from starting new projects or tackling that half-finished model of the Millennium Falcon sitting in your garage. Remember, Rome wasn’t built in a day, but they were laying bricks every hour!

But wait! There's a plot twist. While Mars in Capricorn can give us the strength of a sci-fi superhero, it can also sneak up on us like a villain, tempting us to become overly ambitious, stepping on others’ toes as we climb our way to success. Here's a pro-tip: Keep your inner Darth Vader in check by practicing compassion and empathy. After all, even Spock knows the importance of understanding others' feelings.

So, whether you're a Trekkie or a Star Wars fan, remember to channel the best of both worlds during this transit. May Mars in Capricorn be ever in your favor!

Jupiter is in Taurus

Jupiter Is In Taurus

Alright, gather around my celestial nerds and cosmic aficionados! It seems Jupiter has just RSVP'd to Taurus's party. And let me tell you, this is like having Neil deGrasse Tyson in your book club - things are about to get real interesting! Jupiter, our big old wise uncle of the solar system, is giving us a celestial nudge. It's whispering (well, as much as a gas giant can whisper) that we've got all the wisdom we need right here, within us. No, really, check under that sofa cushion, behind that 3-day old pizza slice. You'd be surprised! But it's not just about finding your inner Yoda. Jupiter in Taurus is like having a personal coach who's half motivational speaker, half accountant. It's the perfect time to dust off that dream you've been hiding in your 'too-hard' basket, and make it happen. You know, that one you thought about while procrastinating on your taxes. Yes, I see you. With Jupiter, the lucky star, parking its cosmic caravan in Taurus, the land of wealth, expect some pretty neat bonuses. Imagine finding a tenner in your old jeans or discovering that your grandma's weird old vase is actually a priceless artifact. Cha-ching! But be warned, dear stargazers, Taurus loves their indulgences. And Jupiter, well, it's not known for its restraint. So, while Jupiter is partying in Taurus's bachelor pad, we might find ourselves mistaking wants for needs. Like that 15th pair of shoes or that shiny new gadget you swore would change your life. So, let's use this time wisely! Tap into that inner wisdom, chase those dreams, and keep an eye on the purse strings. And remember, just because you CAN buy another alien-shaped lava lamp, doesn't mean you SHOULD. Make the Doctor proud, my cosmic adventurers!

Saturn in Pisces: The Master Plan of Your Daydreams

Alright star gazers, hold onto your telescopes because we're about to take a cosmic ride around 1.5 billion kilometers out into the universe! Why? Because Saturn, our favorite celestial taskmaster is currently chilling out in Pisces, the dreamy sign of the zodiac. What does this mean for you? Well, think of it like this: Saturn is that nerdy, organized friend who always has a spreadsheet for everything, and Pisces is your free-spirited, artsy buddy who can't remember where they last put their phone. Imagine these two sharing a dorm room... Yeah, things are about to get interesting.

If you've been daydreaming about writing a book or opening a business, now's the time to start figuring out the details. Think of Saturn as your personal life coach, pushing you to turn those fuzzy dreams into a concrete plan. And believe me, with Saturn involved, you're going to need more than just sticky notes and wishful thinking. We're talking full-blown business plans, budgets, and maybe even a loan application or two.

But be warned, having Saturn in Pisces can feel a bit like your dad suddenly barged into your bedroom and started questioning why you have so many posters of unicorns on the wall. It might feel intrusive, it might even make you defensive. But remember, Saturn is here to help. He's like that annoyingly helpful character in every sitcom who, despite their irritating know-it-all attitude, actually gives good advice. So, open the door, roll your eyes if you must, but listen to what he has to say.

Now, with all this serious planning going on, you might find yourself feeling a bit restless or anxious. After all, Pisces rules sleep and dreams, and it's hard to get a good night's rest when your brain is running on overdrive. So, remember to take some time to chill out. Meditate, take a walk in the woods, practice deep breathing, or even take a nap (but keep a dream journal handy!). Your brain needs downtime to process all the changes that are coming. So, tuck yourself in early, and let Saturn in Pisces guide you to the land of dreams where your subconscious can do some of the heavy lifting.

So there you have it, folks. The universe is giving

Uranus Is In Taurus

Greetings, cosmic voyagers! Listen up, because Uranus has just RSVP’d to Taurus’s seven-year long soiree, and things are about to get interesting. Now, I know what you're thinking: "Uranus? In Taurus? Isn't that like inviting a mad scientist to a librarian's tea party?" Well, you're not far off! Taurus, your comfort-loving cosmic bovine, prefers life like a well-worn sofa - cozy, stable, predictable. But here comes Uranus, the celestial equivalent of the wacky uncle who believes in UFOs, shaking things up like a snow globe. We're talking change with a capital 'C', folks! And not just any change, but the kind that makes Taurus feel like they've downed five espressos in one go. So, buckle up, bumpy ride ahead! Now, Taurus is the Warren Buffet of the zodiac world - all about the dough, the moolah, the green. With Uranus crashing the party, expect some revolutionary thoughts on how we handle our Benjamins. I'm talking cryptocurrency, virtual banks, maybe even a total makeover for Wall Street - who knows? All I can say is, hold onto your wallets! On a personal level, this cosmic cocktail of Uranus in Taurus might just make us question our financial chains. Debt, taxes, credit card interest, rent, mortgages - all these fiscal fun-sponges might be due for a rethink. Are we shackled by material possessions? Is our relationship with money more toxic than a love affair with a Venus flytrap? Uranus, that eccentric old chap, is here to inspire liberation - think of it as a cosmic jailbreak from financial constraints. Sure, change can be as welcome as a mosquito at a nudist colony, but resistance is futile! The shake-ups we face now can lead us to a future stability that's as solid as Taurus's love for a comfy armchair. In short, my friends, Uranus in Taurus is like the universe hitting the refresh button on our financial and material world. It's about to reboot our perceptions and send us on a one-way trip to Changeville. So grab your cosmic surfboards and ride the wave – it’s going to be one heck of an interstellar journey! Keep stargazing, folks! And remember, the cosmos works in mysterious, and often hilarious, ways!

Neptune Is In Pisces

Greetings, cosmic comrades! Now, don't go grabbing your telescopes just yet. I know you're eager to gaze at the mystical Neptune currently cohabiting with our dear Pisces, but let me tell you a little secret - Neptune is an astronomical 4.5 billion kilometers away. So unless your telescope has got the power of Hubble's big sibling, we're going to have to rely on our imaginations for this space odyssey. Neptune in Pisces is like Spock at a Grateful Dead concert - it's all about merging logic with love, fact with feeling, and science with spirituality. It's like Einstein and Buddha decided to write a self-help book together - and trust me, it's a bestseller. This celestial alignment is offering us a chance to put on our metaphorical glasses (or literal, if you're as short-sighted as me) and see through the murky waters of pettiness. You know that coworker who always steals your sandwich from the office fridge? Maybe it's time to see them as a fellow human being, who also gets hungry. Radical, I know! Neptune in Pisces is calling on us to be the superheroes of our own stories. It's time to dust off those dreams you've been storing in the attic of your mind and start making them happen. Whether you've always wanted to learn interpretive dance or code a new cryptocurrency called 'Cosmo-coin', now is the time. Feeling more spiritual than Yoda in a yoga class? Perfect! Neptune encourages you to create a sacred space at home. It could be as simple as a corner with a few of your favorite crystals, or as elaborate as a miniature Stonehenge (just remember, no druid rituals after 10 pm, your neighbors might complain). And finally, remember that sharing is caring, even when it comes to your dreams and ideas. The universe is like your favorite coffee shop's bulletin board - there's room for everyone's flyer. So go ahead, pin up your dreams and see who might join you on your journey. So buckle up, space travelers, because with Neptune in Pisces, it's going to be a wild, wonderful, and wacky ride through the cosmos. Remember to keep your sense of humor, and as always, may the force of Neptune be with you!

Pluto In Capricorn: The Darth Vader Edition

Alright, stargazers, gather round and hold onto your lightsabers! Pluto (no, not the adorable Disney dog, but the far-off icy dwarf planet) is making a grand appearance in Capricorn. It's like watching Darth Vader stroll into a PTA meeting - unexpected and somewhat intimidating, but you can't deny the allure of that dark, brooding charisma.

Now, both Pluto and Capricorn have a certain... intensity, shall we say? They're the kind of folks who walk into a room and say, "I find your lack of faith disturbing," before rearranging the furniture (and perhaps Force-choking a few naysayers). They don't tolerate fluff, and they've got a laser-like focus on success. So, if you start feeling a bit more ruthless than usual, blame it on this cosmic combo. Just remember, not everyone shares your newfound affinity for black capes and world domination.

But here's where the real magic happens: Pluto isn't just about power plays and intimidation tactics. It's also about transformation. And it's not always the easy, "I've decided to start yoga" kind of change. No, it's the kind of change that feels like you've been tossed into the garbage chute with a Diagona (that's a trash compactor monster for the non-Star Wars nerds).

In other words, Pluto wants us to take a hard, honest look at our lives and chuck out anything that's as useful as a screen door on a spaceship. Yes, it might feel a bit like you're being thrown down a reactor shaft, but remember: it's not about destruction, it's about making room for rebirth. So, embrace the process. And hey, if you happen to find a new appreciation for dark, brooding capes along the way, who am I to judge?

Idealism runs high today.There is an unmistakably dreamy, inspired, and sensitive side to those born with easy aspects between the Sun and Neptune. A marked appreciation for music and the arts is present. The connection of Neptune with the Sun, which represents the ego and the will, certainly softens some of the hard edges that might be found elsewhere in the chart, adding a sensitive and spiritual dimension to the personality. These people are naturally compassionate, especially those born under the trine. It is so completely natural for them to accept that there is more to the world than what is before their eyes, that they tend to presume everyone must be spiritually-inclined. Of course, they come to realize that this is not the case at some early point in their lives. Their attraction to spirituality and metaphysical subjects is usually marked. These aspects favor writers, artists, and musicians. These people are sensitive to those who are suffering, although they are not as easily taken advantage of as those with Sun-Moon challenging aspects. They are humanitarian and often have a special connection with animals. If other aspects and positions in the chart support it, these people are not ones to dominate others or assert themselves to the point of brashness.Some Famous People with Sun in Easy Aspect to Neptune: Sextiles – Mick Jagger; Trines – Farrah Fawcett, Billy Corgan, Muhammad Ali

Ever since you were a child and learned to invent indoor games to amuse yourself, you have steadily worked at developing your intellectual skills. This prepared you to deal well with competitive situations in your adult life.Communication is important to you. Your dramatic delivery and flair for using the right words make you a formidable opponent in any debate.

You also use this skill to come to the aid of others who cannot defend themselves intellectually, which is admirable indeed!Others admire your confidence and straightforwardness.

You are often successful in competition but sometimes may not even enter the contest because it doesn’t seem worth it to you.You are honest and forthright in your dealings with others, and you tend to trust others readily.

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.
