Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
We’re in the dark of the moon, the day before the start of another lunar month. Tomorrow’s Cancer New Moon focuses us on themes of home, family, and connection. But, seeing that this is a solar eclipse too, we’re in the threshold for a powerful new beginning.
Jupiter turns direct in Scorpio after four months of retrograde. Themes of travel, faith, and education are highlighted. But Jupiter turns direction in a sign that’s known for it’s powerful emotions as well as its secrets. Something may be revealed as a result.
Things are heating up! The Moon moves into Aries, activating Mars’s slow retrograde connection to Uranus and the South Node of the Moon. Something from the past may be coming up. Conversation may be sharp, passionate, ideologically driven. We may be feeling impatient, restless.
The Moon wraps up its stay in Pisces, highlighting connection and compassion for the day. This makes for a sensitive duo with the Cancer Moon, a sign that instinctively seeks out home and family. Spend time with loved ones with whom you have a deep connection.
The Pisces Moon harmonizes with the Sun and Jupiter today. We’re feeling philosophical, expansive, and pondering life’s greater mysteries. This energy wants our hearts open, it wants connection and compassion. It’s cathartic, too. Be open to love as well as healing.
We begin the week with the Moon moving from airy, intellectual Aquarius to Pisces. We’re moving from the mind to the heart. With Pisces highlighted into tomorrow, it’s a good time to spend quiet time with loved ones or alone in retreat or reflection.
Fresh off the Capricorn Full Moon, we start the weekend with a serious vibe. We may be weighing major choices, thinking about our futures, or how to build the life we want. It’s a reality check, one that will continue to play out the next couple of days.
It may be Cancer Season, but we’re exploring the sign of Capricorn as well. As the complement to Cancer, Capricorn pushes us out of the nest and into the world. And with tomorrow’s Capricorn Full Moon, we’re getting a big push to take the next step in our lives.
Do you take action? What’s your relationship with leadership, drive, will? Do you stand up or stand down? Mars turns retrograde today, kicking off two months of reviewing these very themes. We’re looking back and tying up loose ends instead of moving forward.
The Moon in Sagittarius picks up on an indulgent, romantic connection between Venus and Jupiter. We may be longing for travel or looking at photos of beautiful, faraway lands. It’s also a day to explore, search, and discover different tastes or foods.
Cancer Season kicks off by touching a nerve. With the Sun squaring off with Chiron into this weekend, we may be feeling triggered. Chiron shows us our emotional, psychic, and spiritual knots, which hold us back. It’s a weekend for healing work.
Happy Solstice! For those of us in the northern hemisphere, we welcome summer and with it the longest day of the year. For our friends in the south, it’s the start of winter as well as the rebirth of the light. Plus, the Sun is now in Cancer!
