Summary
Episode 281 In this podcast, New York Times best-selling author and astrologer Chani Nicholas discusses the astrology of the week and what it might mean for us all. The astrology of the week of May 4th, 2026, offers a much-needed morale boost. When Mars squares Jupiter, our confidence to take action skyrockets, and our nerve is bolstered by how we’ve handled all the challenges of the last few weeks. And as Mercury squares Pluto, right before the planet of the underworld stations retrograde in Aquarius, we’re asked to identify the problems in our systems and dive into deep conversation about the changes we need going forward. Then the Sun’s sextile to Jupiter reminds us that we can take our time and relish the things that bring us joy. Don’t let this surge of energy go to waste. This episode covers: Mars’ square to Jupiter on Monday, May 4th Mercury’s square to Pluto on Tuesday, May 5th The beginning of Pluto’s retrograde on Wednesday, May 6th The Sun’s sextile to Jupiter on Sunday, May 10th This episode was recorded on 04/27/2026.
