Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Welcome to the Cancer Full Moon, the time when the spotlight is on home, family, and roots. As a cardinal sign, Cancer speaks to some of the most fundamental experiences of life. It gives us a sense of past and memory, an anchor to something deep within.
A Gemini Moon makes for a busy start to the week, one that not only speaks to business of the holiday season, but also a need to reflect on the things that are more important with Mercury Retrograde in Sagittarius. We may feel as though we are in two worlds.
The following is a fifteen-minute introduction to a three-hour webinar on the Astrology of 2024. In it I not only cover how astrology is a clock independent of the calendar year, but the major cycles of time in 2024 and what it means for your Sun and rising sign.
Mercury retrogrades back to the Sun, a conjunction that marks the halfway point of our latest retrograde season. Look for clarity and insights and Mercury passes into the heart of the Sun. It’s a time to reevaluate our choices and decisions.
Welcome to Capricorn Season. The Sun arrives in the 10th sign of the zodiac, kicking off the winter solstice for those of us here in the northern hemisphere (summer for those in the southern). It’s the return of the light on the darkest night of the year.
An Aries Moon gives the last day of Sagittarius Season a spark of fire. It’s an opening for creativity, celebration, and play, especially as we navigate the holidays and end of the year. We’re also motivated to take the lead and be an advocate for what we believe in.
A week after the Sagittarius New Moon, we reach the first-quarter moon. We feel more present with its questions around faith and belief, philosophy and point of view. We feel its call for adventure, but also its need to tend to responsibilities on the home front.
We trade Sagittarius Season for Capricorn this week, the Sun arriving in the 9th sign on December 21 and marking the solstice, one of the four major crossings of the year. It’s the return of the light. Mercury returns to Sagittarius and Venus faces off with Uranus.
We’re in the last few days of Sagittarius Season as we start the week. Coupled with a Pisces Moon, we’re feeling into the season’s rich existential questions as well as Pisces’s moody feelings. It’s a day to search for meaning and purpose.
The Sun makes a square to Neptune, a point of friction in what we believe in and what we think is true. With Sagittarius Season’s search for truth and meaning, Neptune may have us questioning. Deep emotions from childhood may be coming up as well.
The Moon’s in Capricorn today, a Moon that wants to get grounded and practical in the midst of Sagittarius’s grander visions. How does an idea become reality? With Saturn in Pisces, our heart has to be in whatever we create and whatever we choose.
Mercury turns retrograde at 8 degrees Capricorn. You know the drill. The coming three weeks invite us to reevaluate, reflect, and search for new perspectives. It’s a rewind on events from late November and early December. It’s a second look at our choices.
