The Week of August 24th, 2026: Shocks, surprises, and insights with the Pisces eclipse

Episode 297In 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 August 24th, 2026, has the power to change everything. Mercury (the planet of communication) meets up with the South Node, signaling a major release — or leak — of important information. Then the messenger planet moves into Virgo, where it’s supercharged, and meets up with the Sun in a cazimi that’s sure to deliver some game-changing intel. On the same day, the lunar eclipse in Pisces wraps up a two-year cycle we started in September 2024. This eclipse is also square to Uranus (the planet of shocks and surprises), so expect some sudden shifts and unexpected endings. And once Mercury and the Sun square Uranus as well, more revelations could surface that change our perspective. Pay close attention to your dreams, epiphanies, and communications this week. It’s going to be a wild one.This episode covers:Mercury’s conjunction with the South Node on Tuesday, August 25thMercury’s entrance into Virgo on Tuesday, August 25thThe Mercury cazimi on Thursday, August 27thThe lunar eclipse in Pisces on Thursday, August 27thMercury’s square to Uranus on Friday, August 28thThe Sun’s square to Uranus on Friday, August 28thThis episode was recorded on 8/4/2026.For more, check out your free daily horoscope on the homepage of the CHANI app — now on iOS and Android.As we enter the last stretch of eclipse season, it’s also the last chance for new and expired CHANI app users to get 30 days of free ritual tools, cosmic insights, and astro support from our team of real astrologers.
