Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Yesterday’s solar eclipse is still with us; its powerful energies bringing us into a new space of time. But things are still taking shape and form. We’re in the powerful interstice between one chapter and another. People are coming in and out of our lives.
Powerful week ahead as we step into the energies of Scorpio Season alongside a Scorpio Solar Eclipse. With Saturn and Uranus in the mix, life’s reshaping and reinventing. Plus, Jupiter returns to Pisces and Mars turns retrograde in Gemini.
We’re in the midst of some powerful astrology this week. Saturn is now direct, a planet that demands accountability, commitment, and structure. Both Mars and Jupiter make big changes, too. And tomorrow’s solar eclipse in Scorpio marks a major chapter.
Saturn is about to turn direct in Aquarius, its last change of direction in the sign for another thirty years. It’s a weekend to build, anchor, and commit, especially around friendship and community. But Saturn squares Uranus. We may be in for a jolt or awakening.
Right on the heels of the Sun’s square to Pluto, Venus in Libra squares off with Pluto, too. If Venus is the planet of love and relationship, then Pluto demands reform less than helpful or even darker aspects of relationship, turning shadow into light.
The Libra Sun squares Pluto in Capricorn, an aspect that speaks to power and control as well as our relationship with it. Deep emotions may come, especially emotions that have a connection to family and the past. Pluto wants reformation, transformation.
The Moon moves onto Leo, reaching the last quarter moon before a solar eclipse. Pay attention to the stories and themes emerging. They are a preview of the October 25 Scorpio solar eclipse. They also thread back to previous series of eclipses in April and May.
Last week of Libra Season, one that brings the Sun and Venus to a pointed rendezvous with Pluto. We’re working on the shadow side of relationships. We’re also preparing for a Scorpio solar eclipse and Saturn make a jolt to Uranus as it turns direct.
As we start the week, we go into the last stretch of Libra Season, a season that has highlighted the value of relationship and partnership. With Venus also in Libra, we’ve put on the charm, sought out beauty, and reached for balance.
Another airy day as the Gemini Moon continues to give support to the Sun, Venus, and Mercury in Libra. Saturn in Aquarius completes the trio. It’s a day for the exchange of ideas and vision. Mars in Gemini asks us to be bold, assertive.
The Moon arrives in Gemini after a visit to Taurus, a sign that gave us a preview of themes and energies present in the upcoming eclipses. After tension, we reach for new perspective courtesy of Gemini. With Mars in Gemini, we have opinions, too.
Mars in Gemini squares off with Neptune in Pisces, one of three squares that takes us into the new year. If Mars is action and desire, then we have to align these actions and desires with the needs of something greater than ourselves to find peace within.
