0:00

We've known growth and

0:02

one way. Pretty. Much.

0:05

In. Terms of what we learn about it from

0:07

the world. We. Learn about

0:09

growth as being. A.

0:12

Endless. And. Literally.

0:15

Impossible state of being. We.

0:18

Want to grow

0:20

something exponentially. Into.

0:24

A New Frontier wildly so or

0:26

at least that's what we're tight

0:28

is the most valuable thing to

0:30

do. To. I p

0:32

o a billion to be the first

0:34

trillionaire to be whatever is so. Outlandish.

0:38

And agree Just and. And. Literally

0:40

unattainable for most people.

0:44

Instead. Of being tired, About.

0:47

The incredible abundance.

0:50

Of sharing what we have instead

0:53

of being taught. About.

0:55

The wealth. Of

0:57

making sure that everyone

0:59

around us. Is.

1:02

Fed. And housed and. Educated

1:05

and loved and taking care of.

1:08

That. To. Me is

1:10

actual abundance. But. It's

1:13

nothing that will learn about. In

1:15

any kind of business magazine

1:18

or meeting or forum or.

1:20

What? Have you? This.

1:23

Week talks about doing something

1:25

outside of the system. And.

1:27

The something that we're doing. Is.

1:30

Growth. The. Something that we're

1:32

doing is about abundance and generous.

1:34

heavy. But. It's about doing

1:36

it in a different type of way. So.

1:40

I. Have an agenda. And.

1:42

It is abundance for all. And.

1:45

I'm always going to articulate the astrology

1:47

through that lens. Not. That

1:49

it's always gonna land in that way. But I'd

1:52

like to inspire myself to think about it through

1:54

that lens so that I might. Acts.

1:56

towards that kind of potential

1:58

and future In

2:15

this podcast, we look at the astrology of

2:17

the upcoming week and how it will be

2:19

landing for all of us collectively. For a

2:22

more personalized reading that dives into the

2:24

ways that this week's astrology will play

2:26

out for you, download the

2:28

Channing app. Hello

2:31

and welcome. This is the Astrology of

2:33

the Week Ahead podcast. I'm your host,

2:36

Channing Nicholas, and this

2:38

week we are talking about the week

2:40

of April 15th, which contains within it

2:43

some very exciting, very

2:46

potent, pretty lively, and very

2:48

abundant, and maybe even lucky

2:50

astrology. Jupiter in Taurus

2:52

is making a conjunction with Uranus in

2:55

Taurus, and this is what they're about. Jupiter

2:58

is all about abundance and growth. Uranus

3:00

is all about breaking with traditions and

3:03

norms and doing things differently,

3:07

not doing things traditionally just for the sake of

3:09

tradition. And I'm not saying

3:11

that we need to break everything

3:13

and start again, because I think that that's

3:15

kind of impossible. I

3:18

do think that because this astrology is happening

3:20

within Taurus, which is an Earth sign, we're

3:23

talking about, we're

3:25

working with themes of the

3:28

literal material world. So

3:30

one of the ways that we understand that or

3:32

we've created that is through money, which

3:34

is literally not literal paper, which

3:36

is meant to symbolize something

3:38

that, anyways. So

3:41

it's symbolic, but that's what we've

3:44

come to understand as the literal

3:46

symbol of wealth. Now,

3:49

Jupiter in Taurus wants

3:51

to proliferate,

3:53

wants to Be

3:55

abundant. It is very fecund. It

3:57

is very much about the Earth.

4:00

Or it is about fuel.

4:02

It is about food. It

4:04

is about sustenance. And.

4:06

It's been in Torres for the

4:09

better part of. The.

4:11

As the last year it's going to

4:13

leave Taurus and than than the next

4:15

month for the leave. tourists.

4:17

At the end of May. So

4:19

this is the last little bit of that. But.

4:22

If conjunction with, you're an ass. Interest

4:25

is really special. It hasn't happened

4:27

since the early nineteen forties. In.

4:30

The sign. It happened like every twelve

4:32

years s. But. It doesn't happen. In.

4:34

The same time. Every

4:37

time rate it changes Science: Okay,

4:39

so. Back in the

4:41

forties, the world was being very.

4:43

Reconfigured unfortunately through war.

4:47

In. Regards to economics and how things

4:49

were done. One of the things

4:51

that we can take from that time as

4:53

at different types of people got to enter

4:55

the workforce. So. Women:

4:58

folks. Of color got to enter the

5:00

workforce in different ways because a lot

5:02

of white men were off. In

5:05

the actual been of fighting the war

5:07

so. There's. There was

5:10

a change in the way

5:12

that the workforce. Lox and

5:14

a change in the ways in which

5:16

we thought about the workforce. And.

5:20

Of course I would love to talk about

5:22

something outside of war and outside of the

5:24

know that moment, this moment. Especially,

5:27

but. I'll that

5:29

to say. Like. Rosie the Riveter

5:31

was one of the like. Types.

5:34

Of symbols we can take from that time.

5:36

might like it. And new kind

5:38

of ways for. Women:

5:40

That he thought of at work. Not. That

5:43

women working as a new but you

5:45

know with inside the in the Peter

5:47

Apple constraints of the day. And

5:50

what it meant so we can. Maybe.

5:52

Think or looks to house

5:54

some saying. In terms

5:56

of labor and how. Were.

6:00

operating as a culture might be shifting.

6:02

Obviously, tech shifts a lot.

6:06

This is something I'm hoping as

6:08

more positive, Jupiter's involved and growth

6:10

enhancing, Jupiter's involved. And

6:13

I want us to think about the ways in

6:15

which we can subvert

6:18

the systems that we're in, what's

6:20

useful from the systems that we're in and

6:22

how we can expand outside of the systems

6:24

that we've been told that we have to

6:26

be in. So the

6:29

economic systems, but also whatever your

6:31

industry is, whatever

6:33

systems you're finding yourself

6:35

in, those are

6:37

ones we wanna see if we can

6:40

expand beyond. And I think

6:42

the only way to do that is in solidarity. I

6:44

think the only way to do that is

6:46

in mutual aid. I think the only way to do that

6:49

is to find ways to

6:51

create generative

6:53

spaces for everybody involved.

6:56

So maybe there'll be something

6:58

about labor movements or

7:00

about workplace setups

7:04

that will be very prominent

7:07

this week. This isn't all

7:09

just gonna take place right now. Of course, this is

7:11

a moment of seeding. And the

7:13

day that Jupiter and Uranus come

7:15

together is Saturday the 20th of

7:17

April. So

7:19

it's not all gonna happen this week. It's not all gonna happen on

7:21

the 20th of April. But Jupiter

7:24

will be leaving this sign soon. And

7:27

so we wanna think about the next couple of

7:29

weeks this week and the next couple of weeks

7:31

while Jupiter's still in Toros and

7:33

see what's kind of making headlines.

7:36

Now I go into detail about how

7:38

this impacts you personally in

7:40

your reading for the week on the Channing Op.

7:43

But I want you to think about where

7:45

Taurus is in your chart, what house it's

7:48

in and how you might

7:50

become a little bit more experimental and

7:53

abundance for all mindset

7:56

in that area of your life. And

7:58

see if there's something... there that's like

8:02

generating new ideas and new

8:04

energy. It's exciting astrology. And

8:07

because Jupiter's involved, it feels like there's some

8:09

goodness to it. There's some benefit to it.

8:12

Maybe there's some luck involved in it. Okay,

8:14

so that's the big, big news of

8:16

the week. Now the other parts

8:18

of the week are kind

8:20

of leftovers. I don't wanna, you

8:23

know, diminish them, but

8:25

they are reoccurring

8:27

kind of rebound themes.

8:30

What's a boomerang kind of themes

8:33

of what we've been through the last couple of weeks.

8:36

So last week we had an eclipse in Aries. How

8:39

are you doing? I'm recording this in

8:41

the past. I have no idea what happened, but

8:44

it was a very tenderizing eclipse with

8:46

conjunct chiron, the wounded healer

8:48

and that archetype. This

8:51

week on Monday, Mercury and Chiron

8:53

come together and on Sunday, Venus and

8:55

Chiron come together. Now, that's

8:59

quite a bookend to a week. You know what I

9:01

mean? Like the beginning of the

9:04

week, here's us speaking or receive the

9:06

message that is healing or speaking about

9:08

our wounds or writing about them or

9:11

speaking to something that needs

9:13

to be massaged, needs

9:16

to be readjusted or realigned. And

9:19

at the end of the week, Venus, the

9:22

planet of love and connection and

9:24

beauty is also

9:26

wanting to talk about what hurts and

9:29

what doesn't work and what is painful,

9:31

maybe even in relationships. Now,

9:33

I did talk a lot this

9:35

week in your individual readings about a

9:37

kind of chiropractic adjustment. You

9:40

can think of Chiron as that. We

9:42

have to understand the thing that hurts.

9:44

What is it? How does it hurt? How does

9:47

it show up? But we don't

9:49

have to suffer with the

9:51

pain forever. Chiron

9:53

is a planet that is really medicinal

9:56

or it's a minor planet that also

9:58

speaks to the medicine. And

10:00

we can only get to the medicine

10:02

by dealing with the thing that needs

10:04

to be worked on. So

10:06

again, we're having conversations in the beginning of

10:08

the week, and we're dealing with relationship

10:11

issues at the end of the week that

10:13

are very healing in nature. A

10:16

very different tone than the Jupiter Uranus

10:18

that I started speaking about.

10:20

Because that's like new and exciting

10:22

and not about our pain. But

10:26

this is like we're still circling around the stuff we

10:28

did last week with the eclipse and what

10:30

we've been doing as Mercury is still

10:32

retrograding through this part of our chart.

10:35

So it's loud. It's loud about what hurts.

10:37

It's like, ouch! You know, like there's not

10:40

a mistake. Like, ah, that's, I stub my

10:42

toe. So metaphorically it's

10:44

like that beginning and end of the week. Now

10:47

Wednesday, Venus makes a

10:49

conjunction with the North node, which

10:51

again is a kind of a wink

10:54

and a nod back to last week's eclipse. But

10:57

it's also a huge increase in

10:59

our appetite for love and pleasure and beauty.

11:02

So maybe it finds us being

11:05

a diva. Venus in Aries I

11:07

think is very kind of diva energy sometimes. Not

11:10

that you're a diva if you have this placement, but maybe

11:12

you are. But it's

11:15

very like diva-esque. It gets a

11:17

lot of attention for being really

11:19

talented, for being beautiful, or for

11:22

being just a phenomenal artist.

11:24

It's like really kind of wows the crowd.

11:27

And when it conjuncts the North node, it increases all

11:29

that. So Wednesday we're

11:31

going to maybe desire something that

11:33

is dramatic and

11:36

alluring and eye-catching, and maybe just our

11:39

desire for sweet, wonderful, beautiful

11:41

things is going to be increased. On

11:44

Friday, Mercury and Venus come together.

11:47

It's really good for conversations that

11:50

bring about a kind of cohesion.

11:53

It's a very heated one, so it's like

11:55

spicy and maybe even flirtatious. Then

11:58

we move into tourist season. Friday the

12:00

sign move and to tour a threat

12:02

of the nineteenth. Of. April. Into.

12:05

A season. And

12:07

also on Friday Mars. Make.

12:09

A sex out of both Jupiter and you're an As.

12:12

Sued. For. This is

12:14

interesting because. Mars. Just

12:16

had a conjunction with Saturn last week.

12:18

We just. Did. Some

12:21

testing last week. And

12:23

dealt with the very limited

12:26

amount of. Resources. Or space.

12:28

Or. Time. That we had.

12:31

And. Now Mars is. Kind.

12:33

Of broken free of that a little bit.

12:36

And. Is on sub writer

12:38

boulder Pastors. So

12:40

whatever, we had a challenge with

12:42

last week. We'd. That

12:45

challenges and over the thought

12:48

done has something began there.

12:50

But. We also do get some help. we

12:53

get some movement and it's almost like a

12:55

quantum leap that we get to do. The

12:58

makes feel like a big shift that happens

13:00

at the end of the week. And

13:02

again on Friday. As a son is into tourists

13:04

were out of a clip. see them as the

13:07

sun. Is out of the sign

13:09

Were both eclipses. Happened so we are

13:11

hitting a kind of refreshed. And

13:13

then. Saturday's. Zebra

13:15

Uranus conjunction. Sunday.

13:18

Zenith chi run again the

13:20

relationship issue something tender as

13:23

coming. To the surface. And

13:25

also on Sunday the Sun and

13:27

Pluto make a square. Steep.

13:29

It's a. Powerful,

13:33

It. Might have you coming up against the power

13:35

dynamic or to. Pull.

13:39

Up had it is also. You.

13:41

Know it's an it's a it's a mixed

13:43

bag. This week. There's this. Really?

13:46

Bold beautiful statement that Jupiter and year

13:48

and us are making. And

13:50

it's one of the things about twenty

13:52

Twenty Four. that's interesting. From an astrological

13:54

point of you to that happens, you

13:56

know, rarely. And. So there's something

13:59

new for the world. I think to

14:01

be. Planting. A

14:03

seed for. And then

14:05

there's all of this other like

14:07

post eclipse stuff still in the

14:10

mercury retrograde, still reviewing. Still,

14:12

Having his conversations that are per

14:14

thing out what hurts was painful.

14:16

Why. What? Is the source

14:19

of the wound? What is the medicine that needs

14:21

to be administered? What? Is

14:23

the relationship issue? In. So

14:25

there's these two. Very different. Derives.

14:28

Occurring. And they'll

14:31

be happening simultaneously. So.

14:33

I think the exciting, sinful help. With.

14:36

The can have more. Move.

14:38

I should say introspective per. But.

14:41

The. The. Grappling with our

14:43

human condition. Park. Let's say that

14:45

and a I. Think you

14:47

so much. As always for raiding

14:49

as a review and the app. Store. It

14:51

means the world to us. This lion

14:53

is called Channy is truly are

14:56

14:58

really has it. Ah when it

15:53

as abundance.
