Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Welcome to Taurus Season. The Sun arrived in the second sign of the zodiac on Saturday, inviting us to slow down after the rush of Aries Season. Ruled by Venus, Taurus is the sign of material stability and security, money and resource, pleasure and sensuality.
Mars, the planet of action and determination, arrives in Leo and stokes the fires of creativity and passion. Mars in Leo is bold. It knows what it wants and knows how to get it. Over the coming weeks, it’s all about upping our self confidence game, showcasing our talents, and reveling in art and performance.
Mars returns to Leo, the sign where it began its retrograde way back on December 6. It’s a revisit of themes from January as well as November 2024. After a long reevaluation of our wants and needs, power and desires, we’re stepping into new inspirations.
Mercury meets up with Neptune in Pisces, their first meetup in the sign in over a century. It’s one of our first introductions into Neptune’s 14-year transit through Aries. It’s also a day to open our intuition, to find the courage to be compassionate.
Mercury returns to Aries, the sign it started its retrograde in last month. It’s a revisit of themes and decisions from March. Something on the back burner moves to the front. A dream becomes reality, an intuition becomes an action. Be open to new perspectives.
Another Scorpio Moon day, another day to dig into our emotional and psychic landscape. We get support from Saturn and Mars, two planets that can help us to create lasting emotional connection. First, we need to be open to our intimacy and vulnerability.
Mars returns to Leo and Mercury is back in Aries, a shift in gears for the final days of Aries Season as both planets return to the signs they started their retrograde. The Sun arrives in Taurus on April 19, a new season to enjoy the pleasure and beauty of Venus.
We’re coming off a Libra Full Moon as we start the week, an energy that may be illuminating a key part of our lives and asking us to set boundaries and reevaluate relationships. With the Moon in Scorpio, emotional intimacy, power, and trust are an added focus.
Welcome to the Libra Full Moon, the time in the lunar calendar when the spotlight is on relationships and connection, negotiation and compromise, art and beauty. Although not an eclipse, it follows an Aries solar eclipse. New beginnings need cooperation from others.
Mercury in Pisces and the North Node meet up today. The doors of fate swing open and closed. Our decisions and choices may send us in a new direction. There’s a call for compassion and understanding. Events from mid-March may come to the forefront.
Another Virgo Moon day, another day to get organized, put things in order, and tend to the details. We’ve come full circle since a Virgo lunar eclipse a month ago, a call to take action. Use this energy to set healthy initiatives in motion.
The Moon’s in Virgo, a Moon that wants to clean up and clean out. It’s a burst of “spring” cleaning. But it also highlights Mercury newly direct in Pisces. Part of our work today is to help others, to be of service, to find the balance between heaven and earth.
