The Week of May 13th, 2024: Double-cazimi magic and a planetary pileup in Taurus

Episode 178
In this podcast, New York Times bestselling 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 13th, 2024, is lively, lucky, and largely concentrated in Taurus. On Monday, there is a Uranus cazimi (aka conjunction between the Sun and the planet of disruption) in the sign of the bull, which makes it an excellent moment to take stock of our abundance and channel it into upgrading and dismantling outmoded systems. Later that day, Venus (the planet of love) sextiles Saturn (the planet of boundaries) in the same sign, bringing longevity and structure to our innovations. On Wednesday, Mercury (the planet of communication) also moves into the fixed earth sign and goes on to square Pluto (the planet of transformation) on Friday, unearthing hidden truths through deep conversations. On Saturday, Venus conjoins Uranus, encouraging us to seek fresh modes of pleasure and connection. Then there’s another cazimi in Taurus, between the Sun and Jupiter (the planet of expansion), which heralds new opportunities, wisdom, and growth. Finally, on Sunday, Mars (the warrior planet) amps up our energy levels as it joins the North Node in Aries. It’s a lot. But it’s a great time to revel in the strength and beauty that Taurus is known for.

Comfort is essential for neurodivergent people. Fake relationships are very uncomfortable. I feel comfort is positive when it doesn't keep us stagnant

[@tulsalien]

I think that’s really emotional safety you’re talking about 🩷

[@lisaperry3840]

“The tyranny of likability” … oooo, felt that.

[@aurelien5861]

Knew the waitress was a mom of 2 boy who struggled in school. The day before she took my order was mothers day. It was the biggest tip I ever gave outside the holidays (in cash). I was the one who felt fortunate to be in a place financially after years of struggling personally and professionally. It is a wonderful feeling that my actions went along with the astrology.

[@Highvibin213]

Been in a heavy head block and today is the first day I feel the lift. Loving the app . Thanks for all you do 💜

It definitely kicked off this morning for me! Had a call about private tutoring...Uranus (Technology) plus Taurus (Money). Just to simplify here.

I am right there with what you’re saying. I am working with everything I already have.. I want to give more from where I am because I’m so abundant. Finally I’m in that space. It was my birthday on May 13th

Sun in Gemini Venus in Taurus Mars, Uranus, and north node in Leo Jupiter in Aquarius Wow!!!!

[@RNF-vk3yq]

The 18th is on Saturday-not Monday. She kept mentioning “on Monday” as the date for that which is scheduled to occur this Saturday!

[@drexel1976]

Today’s my birthday, born with Uranus in first house, Venus & Jupiter in Taurus/sun 7th house… I’m hearing a lot of nice, pleasant, lucky growth in sector of chart where Taurus rules- it’s just not happening in my relationships. No romance, few friend activities… isolated.

[@QueenV14]

Chiron in Taurus in my 8th

[@fistofflowers.]

I feel like I’ve gone from water(🐠) to FIRE (♐️) with the help of my May 25th Gemini girlfriend! Her air is fanning my flames! So, now off to design my firey future!

[@joshd6876]

Good stuff Chani. Why would my chart change when using your chart system as opposed to something like Astro-chart? The Chani app says I have Taurus in 3rd house and others say Taurus in 2nd. Big difference lol. Any thoughts or feedback would be greatly appreciated! :)

[@Yaazie123]

The other apps are most likely using the placidus house system and I believe Chani uses whole sign, so the placements will change depending on which system you use.

[@joshd6876]

I want to languish in my Taurus 5th house for longer. Why does Gem season have to always come??? 😭😂

Taurus moon. Just got word that I'm being moved from one area of work to another that I dislike so much I cried. Whyyyy

[@BrittanySinkler]

What if we don’t have anything in Taurus?

[@MS.TINAJ721]

❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Kirakaagali]

In the app reading for me (Virgo rising), you said "mercury has been in Aries for 700 years" was that hyperbolic? I accidently said that to someone and realized that can't be true... Did you mean something else like the energy has been returning or focused on Aries for 700 years or just a hyperbolic statement?

[@sararichardson737]

The 18th is Saturday
