Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Welcome to October, a month that straddles the divide between Libra and Scorpio, between affability and charm and having to take the public facade off. That said, Libra teaches us about relationships, from connection to negotiation, compromise, and peace.
We start the week off with a Scorpio Moon, one that’s picking up on some of the deeper themes we’re working on this week — intimacy, power, vulnerability. Scorpio gives us the bravery to dig into what’s uncomfortable so we can grow.
Happy Libra New Moon! This is the time in the lunar calendar when we turn our attention to relationships. Libra is a sign of socialization and it teaches us to reach to others, connect, form partnership, and learn to negotiate the needs of others. Libra needs balance, fairness, and harmony.
It’s a day to tidy up and tie up loose ends as the Moon rounds its way through Virgo. Although we’ve left Virgo Season behind, we’re in the last day of lunar month, one that began with a Virgo New Moon. It’s also a day to focus on work and other initiatives.
With the Moon in Virgo, we’re officially in the dark of the moon, winding down a lunar month that began with the Virgo New Moon on August 30. What have we learned? What projects did we initiate? Are we more organized? It’s a time to reflect and rest.
Venus squares Saturn today and we’re taking a serious look at all our relationships. Where is there room for improvement? Do we need to open up more to others? Set healthy boundaries? Create more equity? If something is not working, it needs to be fixed.
The Moon’s in Leo and we’re starting to wind down the lunar month, one that began at the end of August. It’s a day to look ahead and think about our goals and wishes for October. It’s also a day for creativity, connection, friends, and community.
Welcome to Libra Season! Over the next four weeks, while the Sun is in Libra, we’re focusing on the many relationships of our lives. Libra is a social sign; it needs partnership. And, so, we’re reaching out and working on strengthening our connections.
Want the scoop on what October 2019 will mean for you? Want to know how to plan for the new and full moons according to your Sun and rising sign? Where to put your focus during Libra Season?
A Gemini Moon takes us into the weekend, a moon that wants us to search, explore, and try new things. It’s a Moon that also likes to travel. With Mercury speeding through Libra, it’s a breezy couple of days for connection, partnership, and even romance.
Saturn’s still calling the shots, which means it’s a week to focus on our goals and what we need to build — or completely restructure — in order to reach those goals. But we’re still working on these deeper existential questions as Jupiter squares off with Neptune.
Saturn turns direct in Capricorn. It’s an important day to check in with our goals and ambitions. After all, Saturn sets a high bar for us and there are certain times of the year, like today, when we have to step up and be accountable for our actions.
