There are no planets in retrograde!

Good day, fellow star gazers! Strap on your space helmets and pull up your moon boots - we're going on an intergalactic journey through the current planetary retrograde.

Much like my attempt to make a kale smoothie palatable, Mercury in Pisces is stirring things up. Expect to be feeling more introspective than a flea on a quantum physicist's coat, pondering life's great mysteries like "why are there so many reality TV shows?" and "what exactly is in hot dogs?" #MercuryInPisces #ExistentialCrisis

Venus and Mars are having a cosmic playdate in Aquarius, the star-sign equivalent of that cool kid in high school who had all the latest gadgets. This dynamic duo is about pushing boundaries, challenging norms and possibly inventing a new vegan-friendly, gluten-free snack. #AquariusParty #VenusAndMarsTagTeam

Meanwhile, Jupiter in Taurus is all about indulgence. And by indulgence, I mean diving head first into a tub of your favorite ice cream while binge-watching reruns of Fringe. Just remember, you can't actually taste the TV, no matter how much you try. #JupiterInTaurus #BingeWatchingForTheWin

Oh Saturn, you're such a drama queen in Pisces. You're reminding us of our responsibilities and the need to be practical. Like fixing that leaky faucet or finally learning how to fold a fitted sheet. Can't we just go back to watching TV? #SaturnInPisces #AdultingIsHard

Uranus in Taurus is sparking some rebellious energy. It's like when you decide to wear mismatched socks because, well, why not? Life's too short for matching footwear. #UranusInTaurus #MismatchedSocksRevolution

Neptune is also lounging in Pisces, inspiring us to get creative. So go ahead, paint that masterpiece or compose that symphony. Or, in my case, try to figure out how to turn a pumpkin into a functioning time machine. #NeptuneInPisces #TimeTravelingPumpkin

Lastly, Pluto in Aquarius is encouraging transformation. It's like when you decide to cut your own hair and end up looking like a disgruntled poodle. Embrace the change, my friends! #

The IMF trended towards background levels after Bt peaked around 11 nT early in the day due to weak HSS and transient influences. Bz was mostly southward for the first half of the day, reaching -10 nT briefly. However, winds were generally light by high speed stream standards, averaging just under 400 km/s. The phi angle was predominately negative, but became variable late in the day.
