Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Our busy week continues. Fresh off of Saturn in Aquarius’s retrograde turn, we may still be weighing serious choices as well as creating and building towards the future. Mars is also at the end of Aquarius and we need to tend to a friendship or connection.
Busy week as two planets change signs and three planets change direction, all in the course of five days. Life shifts gears, new stories and new rhythms emerge.
We start the week off with a serious and focused Moon in Capricorn. It’s all about our ambitions, responsibilities, and looking towards the greater picture. With Saturn turning retrograde today, we have a check in with the direction we’re taking our life in.
We’re coming off an intense and emotional Scorpio Full Moon. It’s quite possible that something has been shifting within as well as around. As we go into the weekend, full moon energies still reverberate. Today’s Sagittarius Moon asks, what do we still believe in?
With the Moon now in Scorpio, we prepare for tomorrow’s full moon, one that pushes and pulls on deep emotions and memories. If you’re feeling something coming up or something from the past revisiting, heal what needs healing, resolve what needs resolution.
Another Libra Moon day and another day to connect and socialize. We’re focusing on our many relationships today — romantic, platonic, and professional. With the North Node now in Gemini, it’s all about element Air and its’ need to move and interact.
It’s the first week of May, a month where we’re going to see a lot of celestial gear shifts. This week we start with the Lunar Nodes moving into Gemini-Sagittarius. We’re collectively moving from the sign of home and family to movement, travel, and learning.
We start the week off with a Libra Moon, a moon that highlights duties and responsibilities as well as relationships. Venus in Gemini wants us to socialize, connect, and to gather resources, too. But a bigger issue around value and worth may arise.
A creative, fun loving Leo Moon takes us into the weekend, one that’s in a time out until it arrives in Virgo early on Saturday. Use today to wrap up and tend to matters in the home. This weekend is better focused on projects, cleaning, organizing, and health.
Mercury meets up with electric, revolutionary Uranus in Taurus. It’s a day for awakenings, breakthroughs, and powerful new insights. Although Taurus has an instinct to preserve, we’re feeling a push to shake things up and leave the past behind.
The Moon wraps up its time in Cancer. Even though it’s a time to slow down and focus on the home and the people who are the most important to us, it’s a day when we may feel busy — busy with responsibilities, things to do, and messages to answer.
The Cancer Moon keeps us busy today, but it also helps us to focus on the home as well as what we need to feel safe and secure, especially during these times. Make a point to reach out virtually to loved ones and friends, especially if you’ve been in isolation.
