Mars has been retrograde since December of last year, and if you’ve had trouble getting going so far in 2025, trust us- you are not alone.

Astrology forecast for February 16-22 Chris and Almie talk about the sun entering Pisces on February 18th, and in doing so we’re moving from our heads to our hearts as we leave behind the fast-moving, mental energy of Aquarius Season and will now be navigating life more with our hearts and our intuition over the next month.  They also discuss what we can expect during the final week of Mars Retrog...

Astrology forecast for February 8-14 Chris and Almie discuss the ongoing Mars Retrograde and empathize with anyone who has been having a rough go of it.

Astrology forecast for February 2-8 New episode up now! Chris and Almie talk about Venus entering Aries on Tuesday, February 4th. This will be good for Aries sun signs and fire signs in general.

Arie...

Astrology forecast for January 26-February 1 Chris and Almie talk about the Lunar New Year, which takes place Wednesday, January 29th with the New Moon in Aquarius.

Astrology forecast for December 28-January 3 With Almie nursing a cold, Chris takes the reins and reminds listeners that the planet Mars still has a long way to go in its retrograde cycle so we might be feeling a bit sluggish, things might not be happening as quickly as we’d like them to and there could be all kinds of issues pertaining to patience and anger.  Chris also talks about Capricorn Seas...

Astrology forecast for December 2-8 There’s a lot of conflicting energy this week: some jubilant, some pessimistic. Here at Something About Astrology we encourage listeners to buckle up for the astrological roller coaster we’ll all be riding, and try not to let your highs get too high, and try not to let your lows get too low either. Mars will turn retrograde on Friday, December 6th. The last time...

Astrology forecast for November 24-30 Well, it might not really be all that “special,” but just in time for the holidays, Mercury will be turning retrograde on Monday, November 25th and will remain retrograde until December 15th.

Astrology forecast for September 23-29 Chris and Almie talk about Venus entering Scorpio, a sign where it’s technically in its detriment and isn’t particularly comfortable. Over the next few weeks we can expect some additional intensity around our relationships and perhaps a deeper love too. They discuss the Sun entering Libra, which kicks off Fall. During Libra Season (Sept 22-Oct 22) think about...

Astrology forecast for September 14-20 Chris and Almie discuss the upcoming lunar eclipse that will be exact at 7:34pm on Tuesday, September 17th.  Eclipses tend to speed things up, so we could see new people or situations either entering our lives, or quickly disappearing from them.  Because the eclipse is happening in the sign of Pisces, this could be an especially emotional eclipse, and also an...

Chris and Almie tell listeners to rejoice as this current Mercury Retrograde will come to a close on Wednesday, August 28th.

They also talk about Venus enterin...

Astrology forecast for August 18-24 Chris and Almie tell listeners they can expect this week to start off with a bang with a Super Full Moon (also a Blue Moon) in the sign of Aquarius.
