Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Happy Libra Full Moon! Happy lunar eclipse! This is the time of the year when we make decisions in support of peace, harmony, balance, beauty, art, and cooperation. Libra is the sign of relationships and this eclipse will spotlight our alliances as well as the people we interact with. The […]
Everything can be used in highest consciousness or lowest, for the light or the dark, to create life … or destroy. The fire element is strong in the sky right now. The Sun is in Aires and Mars, its ruler, is in Sagittarius. This is a dynamic combination that can […]
Happy birthday Aries! We move from the element water to the element fire. Water is receptive, fire is active. With Mars over in Sagittarius, also a fire sign, we’re ready to launch! Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, teaching us about bravery and leadership. Aries is the spark […]
Today’s fiery Leo Moon brings some sunshine to an otherwise watery lineup of planets. Remember, we currently have five planets in Pisces. That’s a lot of emphasis on Piscean themes of emotional connection, unity, compassion, sacrifice, and redemption. Plus all these planets are bunching up around the South Node of […]
Over the last few weeks I’ve been talking a lot about the Pisces archetype, especially its higher expression of compassion and unconditional love. A couple of people pointed that they had a Pisces in their life that was anything but. (I think the word “selfish git” was used. Ah, I […]
There’s a lot of complicated astrology happening in the skies right now. It’s easy to cherry pick one aspect over another to get a read on things, but when we do we miss out on the big picture. I’ve seen a couple of things written about today’s alignment between Jupiter […]

As of Saturday, Venus is in Pisces! I actually quite like Venus in Pisces. In classical astrology we say that Venus is exalted in Pisces, which is just a fancy way of saying that it’s a sign that she does her best work in. If Venus is love, value, beauty, […]
I’m fascinated by astrology and this idea of metaphorical time. When the Sun is in Pisces, as it is for most of March, the cosmic weather shifts. It gets hazy and damp with a dash of glitter. We also experience life through the prism of compassion, sensitivity, spirituality, and reflection […]
Guys, there’s a LOT of Pisces going on in the sky right now. When Venus gets into Pisces on Saturday, we’ll have five planets in the sign of sensitivity, compassion, artistic inspiration, spirituality, mysticism, and redemption. Toss in the South Node and Ceres, and now we have seven points to […]
What’s our pain? What deeply emotional story comes up again and again, unfailingly so? Where do we keep ourselves bound? Imprisoned? With Chiron a major player in Tuesday’s solar eclipse, we’re feeling something that we just can’t put our finger on. It gnaws at us. Maybe we’re crying but not […]
Hey! We had a pretty intense solar eclipse in Pisces yesterday. Did you miss my write up? Click here. Why are eclipses so important? Because they set in motion the next chapter of our lives. And if astrology is a symbolic way of telling time, eclipses strike the hour and […]
