There are currently 6 planets in retrograde:

Your Cosmic Forecast

Alright, space cadets, brace yourselves because we're about to embark on a cosmic rollercoaster of planetary retrogrades and cheeky celestial shenanigans!

Mercury, that swift-footed messenger of the gods, finds himself in the meticulous realm of Virgo. You might find yourself suddenly possessed with a Sherlock-like attention to detail, but remember, not everything that glitters is gold, it might just be your mate's leftover glitter from last weekend’s disco party. #Sherlocked #MercuryinVirgo

Venus, the goddess of love, lounges luxuriously in the flamboyant sign of Leo. Now, this is the time to strut your stuff like you’re Beyonce. But, remember, while confidence is your middle name, humility should be your nickname. Also, avoid any large manes, unless you fancy looking like a Lion King extra. #VenusinLeo #SassyandClassy

Meanwhile, Mars, the planet of action, is sipping artisanal lattes in Libra. If you find yourself torn between binge-watching Doctor Who or going out to save the world, well, welcome to the club. Just remember, balance is key, and there's always time for another episode later. #MarsinLibra #NetflixandSaveTheWorld

Jupiter, the big daddy of good fortune, is chilling in Taurus; this might just be your chance to start that lucrative compost business. Just remember, one man's trash is another man's treasure...or mulch in this case. #JupiterinTaurus #CompostIsGold

Saturn, the stern taskmaster, is swimming in dreamy Pisces. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself having serious conversations with your goldfish. Just remember, they probably have a better memory than you. #SaturnInPisces #FishAreFriendsNotFood

Unpredictable Uranus is also hanging out in Taurus. This is definitely NOT the time to try sushi for the first time, especially if it's homemade and especially if your cooking skills are about as good as a Dalek's bedside manner. #UranusInTaurus #SushiDisaster

Neptune, the planet of dreams, drifts in Pisces too. Could inspire some

The solar wind environment reflected a mildly enhanced solar wind regime. Total field averaged between 1 nT and 7 nT, Bz was between +5 and -6 nT, and wind speeds reached a peak of just over 460 km/s. The Phi angle spent several hours in both positive and negative orientations, but ended the period in a negative position.

There is a 35% chance of solar activity, with a 25% chance of a minor event, a 5% chance of a moderate event, and a 1% chance of a strong event.
