Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
With the Moon in Taurus today, we can turn our attention to the beauty and glamor of Venus in Pisces. If Taurus is a space of earthly pleasure for the Moon, Venus in Pisces reminds us of more ethereal pleasures, that there is space for magic in the day-to-day.
Busy day as Mercury moves from Sagittarius to Capricorn. Whatever we’ve been thinking about or planning, now it’s time to take measured action and to make commitments. With Mercury square the Lunar Nodes, decisions may prove pivotal.
Mercury reaches the end of its nine week adventures in Sagittarius, a visit that included a retrograde. It’s been a period to reconsider our opinions, to communicate differently. As Mercury leaves, it makes a square to Neptune in Pisces, a call for empathy.
With the North Node of the Moon moving into Pisces, our collective “due north” will point to a sign of compassion and creativity. While this marks a larger shift for 2025, we will see smaller moves this week with Mars in Cancer and Mercury in Capricorn.
Mars, the planet of drive and action, dives into Cancer, turning our focus towards home and family. Our living situation and household, past and memory demand our attention. We’re also leading with our sensitivity and empathy, fighting for those we love.
As we start the week, Mars returns to Cancer, a retrograde review of a sign it was in from September to November. It’s an element shift, too, from fire to water, an element about the past, memories, home, family. We’re motivated to create emotional connection.
Venus arrives in Pisces, the sign of its exaltation and a sign where it does its best work. The next four weeks are an invitation to find beauty and glamor, to open our hearts to unconditional love, to invest in the connections that enrich us — body, mind, and soul.
The Moon’s in Aquarius, a sign that takes the new beginnings of a recent Capricorn New Moon and creates systems. Aquarius moves with vision, big ideas, and a larger vantage to build and construct. In return, what do you want to build in the New Year?
Welcome to 2025! The Moon’s in Aquarius this New Year’s Day, a sign that turns our focus to the future, to new horizons. Aquarius speaks to the importance of community and finding our place in the world. It’s also our first New Year’s with Pluto in Aquarius.
Last day of 2024, a year that has been a bridge to a new era. With the energies of yesterday’s Capricorn New Moon, we’re ready to turn over a new leaf in 2025, instead reinvesting our time and energies in the experiences that nourish the heart and the soul.
Welcome to 2025! A Capricorn New Moon brings us into the new year, a new moon to make new foundations with, ones that fulfill and support. Mars Retrograde also makes an opposition to Pluto in Aquarius, a second in a series of evolutionary pushes.
Welcome to the Capricorn New Moon, the last new moon of 2024. With the energies of Capricorn and its ruling planet Saturn, we turn our focus towards goals and ambitions, order and structure, commitment and accountability, maturity and tangible growth.
