Your Nerdy Astrologer: Planetary Retrograde Edition!

Alright, all you celestial beings, let's talk some serious cosmic jargon. Mercury is in Sagittarius and it's time to pull out your philosophical thinking caps. You're going to be asking life's biggest questions like "Why did I eat that third slice of pizza?" and "Why does my cat stare at me while I sleep?" You've got the power of the universe behind you, so use it wisely! (Or don't, I'm not your mom.) #MercuryInSagittarius #DeepThoughts

Venus is doing her thing in Libra, making everyone a little more lovey-dovey than usual. So if you find yourself considering texting your ex at 2 AM... just remember, even though Venus is playing Cupid, she's also a master of the art of "ghosting." #VenusInLibra #LoveIsInTheAir

Mars, the red hunk of rock we love to hate, is sauntering through Scorpio. This might make you feel like you're ready for battle, but remember, not every trip to the grocery store needs to be a fight to the death over the last box of cereal. Chill, my dudes. #MarsInScorpio #TakeItEasy

Jupiter's lounging in Taurus, bringing us a big ole' dose of practicality. It's time to tackle that DIY project you've been putting off, and by "DIY project," I mean finally assembling that IKEA furniture that's been sitting in the corner for six months. #JupiterInTaurus #DIYTime

Saturn in Pisces is bringing out the dreamer in all of us. So dream big, eat lots of cheese before bed, and don't forget to write down your bizarre dreams for future analysis (or just for a good laugh). #SaturnInPisces #DreamBig

Uranus in Taurus might make you feel a little rebellious. Maybe you'll start wearing socks with sandals or eating pizza with a fork and knife. Either way, embrace your weird! The cosmos certainly are. #UranusInTaurus #EmbraceTheWeird
