Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Now that Mars is in Aquarius, we’re in a new chapter of Scorpio Season. Why? Because Mars is the ruler of Scorpio and in Aquarius we’re taking a deep look at social values and the collective fears of humanity as well as security, stability, and connection.
Feeling a crunch? Mars is at 29 degrees Capricorn today. Whenever a planet reaches the last degree of a sign, we can feel a test or a proof of maturity. And Mars in Capricorn? It’s all about commitment, success, and racing to the top.
We’re starting our week with the Moon in Aquarius, pulling us toward social connection — community, friendships, the collective of humanity — as well as abstract ideas and intellect. In short, Aquarius is helping us see the big picture today.
We’ve got a couple of Venus aspects to take us into the weekend, highlighting the importance of our interpersonal relationships. But what happens when there’s pain holding us back from connecting? Fear of rejection?
The astrology has been a little quiet this week. (Not if you’re a Cubs fan, tho.) The Moon is still drifting along in Sagittarius today and we’ve been devoid of major aspects of late, or at least anything that pushes the narrative.
The Moon is still winding its way through Sagittarius today, highlighting a journey we’ve been on since last year. And if we’ve got faith and commitment on our minds, that’s because Saturn’s pushing us hard to figure out what we believe in.
Welcome to November. We’re getting deeper into Scorpio season, a moody, psychologically driven sign. Scorpio makes us experience a level of emotional intimacy that one can only share with other another person.
Welcome to Scorpio season, the time in the year when life seems more fleeting. There’s a chill in the air and the light of the Sun illuminates our fears and anxieties. Scorpio is a psychologically driven sign. It helps us understand ourselves more deeply.
Happy Halloween! Yesterday we began a new lunar month, one that will take us through the prism of Scorpio in the coming four weeks. And what do new moons do? They create a container of experience for us to live our lives through.
Happy Scorpio New Moon! This is the time of the year when the lunar month takes us into the underworld. Scorpio is the sign of The Passage, a space that we all must pass though in the wheel of life.
In astrology Saturn has a very specific function. As the regulator time, Saturn sets the pace of our growth as both adolescence and adults. Saturn makes us mature, even when we’re dragged kicking and screaming, into the next phase.
We’re in the last few days of the lunar cycle, a time that pulls us inward for quiet reflection. We sort, we feel, and we release. But with the Scorpio New Moon looming and Mars touching on Uranus, there may be an uneasy push to strike out in a new direction.
