Retrograde Report for 24 December, 2023

There are currently 3 planets in retrograde:

Mercury, planet of communication, is hanging out in Sagittarius. It's like having that fast-talking friend who always has a philosophical quote ready in your pocket. So expect conversations to be about as clear as quantum physics. Good luck making sense of those texts, folks! #MercuryInSagittarius #QuantumConfusion

Venus, the planet of love, is currently playing detective in Scorpio. If your partner suddenly starts asking you about your ex from 10 years ago, don't panic. It's just Venus being nosy. #VenusInScorpio #LoveInvestigation

Mars, our fiery planet of action, also finds itself in Sagittarius. This combination is like Gandalf and a Dragon Ball Z character had a baby. Prepare for epic adventures... or just really intense debates about whether Star Trek or Star Wars is superior. #MarsInSagittarius #EpicDebates

Jupiter in Taurus means it's time to expand... your waistline? With Jupiter's enthusiasm for growth and Taurus' love of good food, consider this a green light to indulge in that second slice of pizza. #JupiterInTaurus #EatYourHeartOut

Saturn in Pisces may make you feel like you're stuck in a perpetual dream state. Or maybe you're just binge-watching too much Inception. Either way, embrace the confusion and remember: just because it's weird doesn't mean it's not real. #SaturnInPisces #DreamyReality

Uranus is lounging in Taurus, which means it's time to shake things up. And by "things," we mean your bank account. Expect sudden expenses, like discovering your favorite comic book series has released a limited edition issue. #UranusInTaurus #UnexpectedExpenses

Neptune, the planet of dreams, is swimming through Pisces. This could mean some seriously surreal dreams. Or you might just find yourself getting lost in thought while staring at your lava lamp. #NeptuneInPisces #DaydreamBeliever

Finally, Pluto - yes
