Retrograde Report for 14 January, 2024

There is currently only one planet in retrograde:

Let's start with Mercury, our cosmic chatterbox. Currently in Capricorn, it's like a stressed-out accountant doing taxes... in binary code. Be prepared for some serious control-alt-delete action in your communication sector, folks! Don't forget to periodically save your work and sanity. #MercuryRetrograde #CapricornMadness

Next up, Venus, our lovely lady of love (and let’s not forget money), is partying it up in Sagittarius. Expect sudden urges to invest in bow and arrow sets or to fall head over heels for centaurs. Hey, love is strange when Venus is in town. #VenusInSagittarius #LoveIsWeird

Now, let's move onto Mars, the celestial bodybuilder. In Capricorn, it's like a mountain goat on steroids. Climbing those professional ladders might seem easier than usual, but don't forget to look down occasionally. The view is spectacular. #MarsInCapricorn #GoatPower

Jupiter, the cosmic Santa Claus, is currently in Taurus. Expect gifts of stubbornness and determination. Keep your eyes out for golden opportunities disguised as bull horns. #JovialJupiter #TaurusTenacity

Saturn, our taskmaster, is taking a swim in Pisces. It’s time for some deep, existential dives into the ocean of responsibility. Just remember to come up for air occasionally. #SaturnInPisces #DeepSeaDiving

Uranus, the cosmic rebel, is also in Taurus. Expect some unexpected bull rides of change. Hold on tight and remember: even the wildest rides lead to new horizons. #UranusInTaurus #CosmicBullRide

Neptune, our dream weaver, is chilling with Saturn in Pisces. This is like a cosmic sleepover where dreams and responsibilities are having a pillow fight. Who will win? Only time will tell. #NeptuneInPisces #DreamVsReality

The moon is currently in Pisces, at 01 degrees, 33' 44", at a velocity of 14.79 degrees per day.

The Waxing Crescent moon is currently 3.1 days old. It is 363620.69 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.

Solar wind parameters were nominal. However, values observed by the DSCOVR spacecraft were suspect. Solar wind speeds were reported between ~475-500 km/s, possibly due to peak tracking issues with the FC instrument. Total magnetic field strength was at or below 5 nT. Phi angle was predominantly positive through 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.
