Retrograde Report for 20 January, 2024

There is currently only one planet in retrograde:

Firstly, Mercury in Capricorn is like a robot doing a stand-up routine; it's all about clear communication, only with a straight face and zero tolerance for nonsense. So, if you're feeling like Sheldon Cooper trying to comprehend sarcasm, just blame it on Mercury. #MercuryInCapricorn #BigBangTheoryReference

Now, Venus in Sagittarius is like a hippie at a tech conference. It’s spreading love, harmony, and peace, but in a very adventurous and spontaneous way. You might find yourself attracted to foreign foods, exotic locations, or perhaps developing an unusual affinity for Star Trek. #VenusInSagittarius #BeamMeUpScotty

Meanwhile, Mars in Capricorn is like a sci-fi villain with a well-structured plan. This combo is all about ambition and drive, except it's wearing a suit and has a PowerPoint presentation. Be ready to conquer the world, or at least clean your room. #MarsInCapricorn #PlanetaryPowerPoint

Jupiter in Taurus is the ultimate cosmic foodie. Like a nutritionist at a buffet, it's all about expansion, but with a sensible approach. It’s a good time to enjoy life’s pleasures, just don’t forget to balance your cosmic checkbook. #JupiterInTaurus #CosmicFoodie

Saturn in Pisces is like a surfer with a quantum physics degree; disciplined yet dreamy. It's a time when your dreams can take a realistic shape, or when your reality might seem a little dreamy. Either way, don't forget to balance the equations. #SaturnInPisces #QuantumSurfer

Uranus in Taurus is like a mad scientist in a zen garden; expect the unexpected, but in a very grounded way. It's all about sudden changes, but with a practical twist. So, if you suddenly decide to invent a teleportation device, please make sure it's eco-friendly. #UranusInTaurus #EcoFriendlyInventions

Neptune in Pisces is like having a dream within a dream, Inception style. It’s spiritual, imaginative, and might

The moon is currently in Taurus, at 25 degrees, 38' 34", at a velocity of 13.19 degrees per day.

The Waxing Gibbous moon is currently 9.5 days old. It is 377505.65 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 weakly enhanced this period due to continued, but waning positive polarity CH HSS influences. Solar wind speeds decreased from a high of around 500 km/s to end-of-period values near 400 km/s. Total field strength ranged 4-9 nT and Bz varied +6/-7 nT. The phi angle was positive.

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.
