Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
We started off the new year with a conjunction of Mars and Neptune in Pisces, a sort of listless slash spiritually existential line up. Maybe you were a little hungover, but in its highest expression it means our actions are fused with the energy of compassion.
Happy new year! Phew, what a year 2016 was. Up was down and down was up. If we learned anything from the astrology it’s that even though Uranus and Pluto finished their epic squares between each other, we’re still feeling the aftershocks.
Yesterday’s Capricorn New Moon inspired us to look ahead and think seriously about the milestones and achievements we want to strive for in the new year. If you haven’t yet taken advantage of this fertile lunar energy, make sure you make a list.
Happy Capricorn New Moon! This is the time in the calendar when we turn our attention to maturity, ambition, and responsibility. Capricorn is a vertical sign. It wants you to think seriously about what you want and make strides to achieve it
When we’re in Capricorn season as we are now, it’s all about the planet Saturn. Why? Because Saturn is the ruling planet of Capricorn and it’s placement in the zodiac and the aspects it presently makes flavors the solar month.
The Moon is in Sagittarius today, touching on a Saturn story we’ve been working through since 2015. What do we believe in? God? The afterlife? That everything is going to be okay?
Not only is the year winding down, but we’re winding down the lunar month. As a result, the energy is starting to wane. We’re reflecting on where we’ve been over the last three weeks. We integrate and prepare for the next new moon.
Libra Moon day highlighting sweetness, beauty, and interpersonal connection today. But with the Moon activating these tense configurations of Uranus, Pluto, and Jupiter, we may be dealing with our relationship shadow instead.
It’s officially Capricorn season. Happy birthday to the sign that teaches us about maturity, responsibility, and working hard to climb the ladder of success. And happy solstice! We’re officially celebrating the return of the light in the northern hemisphere.
We’re in the last day of Sagittarius. We’re also the last day before a switch in the season — winter in the northern hemisphere and summer in the southern. As a result, we may have a sense that something is about to change.
It’s official. Mercury is now retrograde. Switching gears in Capricorn, the sign of manifestation and mastery, we’re going to spend the next three weeks looking at our choices and how they manifest in our lives. And there’s likely an old story around it.
We’re in the gate for the next Mercury Retrograde. Perhaps you’re already feeling it, especially as Mercury dances around Pluto in Capricorn, this sense that something has to end. But before it does, we have to review and take consciousness of why.
