Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Ready for tomorrow’s alignment between the Sun and Saturn? While not the most glamorous of planets, Saturn has the role of holding you accountable in life. And, as a result, we’ve been digging into themes on maturity, commitment, responsibility, and getting older.
When Venus arrived in Aquarius yesterday, she joined Mars, who has been hanging out in the sign since November 9. The Sun may be in Sagittarius, a fire sign, but we’ve been receiving a lot of air lately — connection, relationship, movement, ideas, sharing.
Trading tradition and responsibility for the avant garde, Venus arrives in Aquarius for a four week stay. And if Venus is the planet of relationship, beauty, and value, then in Aquarius it’s funky, progressive, and wonderfully weird.
As much as this month is about Saturn and its push to get us to take the next big step in our life, it’s also about Uranus. And while Saturn would rather us cautiously preserve the status quo, Uranus is about breaking it apart.
We’re coming up on a crossroad this week. With the Sun approaching Saturn this Saturday, December 10, we’re feeling time, we’re feeling responsibility, and we’re feeling a need to make a decision — one that touches on faith, truth, and meaning.
One of the things I talked about in my December horoscopes is this intense energy we’ve been surfing courtesy of a of Jupiter, Pluto, and Uranus mashup. To put it simply, we’re being pushed to take a major evolutionary step. These planets demand nothing less.
Welcome to December. With all the big deal astrology in the works for this month, the cosmos is surely making sure we end 2016 off with a bang. Between Saturn in Sagittarius to a tense Jupiter, Pluto, Uranus t-square, we’ve got our personal work cut out for us.
Where are we? How did we get here? As we close out 2016, a year that feels like a crossroads, we may be feeling disoriented. Up is down, left is right. Thankfully, if there’s a zodiac sign to help us find ourselves it’s Sagittarius.
One of the quieter undercurrents to yesterday’s new moon was Chiron in Pisces. Why? Because the planet of emotional, psychic, spiritual knots will turn direct tomorrow, infusing this lunar month with deep existential feelings as well as a call for healing.
Happy Sagittarius New Moon! This is the time in the astrological calendar when we turn our attentions to faith, truth, and meaning. Sagittarius is foreign travel, other cultures, philosophy, religion, higher education.
We’re in the dark of the moon, the time just before the start of a new lunar month. The energy is quiet, introspective. And with the Moon in Scorpio, our psychic senses are heightened and the veil feels thin.
Yesterday was the Thanksgiving holiday in the US, a time when I am reminded that I am not only thankful that I get to do what I love, but that so many of you around then world connect with it. I am blessed.
