Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Welcome to the Aries Full Moon, the time in the lunar calendar when the spotlight is on action, drive, power, and motivation. It’s a sign that inspires us to take the lead and strike out on our own. It brings new beginnings and can help us reinvigorate our lives. The […]
The Moon’s in Aries, a ramp up for tomorrow’s high powered Aries Full Moon. Ruled by Mars, Aries is the fuel for new beginnings and initiatives, the courage to start over, the desire to strike out on our own. Reinvigorate dormant projects and ideas.
Venus, on its way out of Scorpio, makes a beautiful trine to Neptune in Pisces, an aspect that evokes glamor, magnetic charm, and magical transformation. It also speaks to an opportunity to open our hearts to deep love and powerful intimacy.
An Aries Full Moon brings eclipse season to a finale. It’s an emotional charge forward. It’s a spark of inspiration that sets us off on a new journey. With Mars in Cancer, we reach towards the familiar. However emotions and impatience may run high.
Big Mars energies in the sky this week in advance of an Aries Full Moon on October 17. With the Sun also square Mars, it’s a day to create new initiatives, to find our power, to reach towards our goals and ambitions. We may also feel rushed and impatient.
Pluto turns direct at 29 Capricorn, its final leg in a sign it’s been in since January 2008. It’s the end of an era as well as the transition into something new. A key area of our lives has been irrevocably transformed over the last 16 years. What have we learned?
A Capricorn Moon means that we’ve reached the first-quarter moon after a solar eclipse. It’s a checkpoint, a time when events can manifest and we can see what this solar eclipse was bringing into our lives. Capricorn also speaks to maturity and responsibility.
Jupiter turns retrograde at 21 Gemini, the beginning of a second look at what we’ve learned and discovered since late May. Over the next four months we will examine our decisions, we’ll re-explore Gemini, a sign about education, communication, and information.
Today’s Sagittarius Moon points us towards the stars, inspires us to look towards the world, to seek and explore, to find answers. But with Jupiter about to turn retrograde in Gemini, there’s a tension, one that may pull on matters of faith, truth, and meaning.
Jupiter and Pluto change directions, two heavy hitters and that pull at matters of faith and transformation. Emotions are running high, especially a week after a solar eclipse. We’re still feeling ripples. Mercury also arrives in Scorpio; it’s a deep look within.
With last week’s solar eclipse behind us, we’re in a new setting of time, one that takes us into the next six months. It’s still a week of transitions and one that may be marked by events as well as a psychic intensity, especially as we come up to the first-quarter moon.
With all the ups and downs with the recent solar eclipse, we do have Saturn giving us a steady hand this week. Today’s trine between Venus in Scorpio and Saturn in Pisces is an opportunity to find stability as well as common ground in a tense situation.
