Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
The Sun and Saturn make their annual conjunction, this year at 22 Pisces. We’re beginning to come to the end of our journey with Saturn in Pisces. What have we learned about peace? Compassion? Understanding? It’s a day to step into roles of responsibility.
Mercury meets up with Venus in Aries, a meeting that inspires kind words and diplomatic solutions. With Venus Retrograde until April 12, decisions may require us to come up with better solutions or rework a choice from the past in order to move forward.
This week’s eclipse at 23 Virgo is one of the marquee events for 2025, putting the spotlight on creating order and structure. It’s also an eclipse that creates a need to be of service, to put things in order, to clean things up, to tend to our health and wellness.
The Moon’s in Leo as we start the week, a Moon that needs creativity and self expression, joy and fun. With the Pisces Sun, it’s a reminder to bring the art of living to our day-to-day lives. We’re also on the cusp of a lunar eclipse. Life is on the move.
We go into the weekend with a Moon in Cancer, a Moon that picks up on the watery energies of a Pisces sun alongside Saturn and Neptune. It’s a weekend to connect back with what’s in our hearts, to nourish our passions and invest in what has deeper meaning.
It’s the first-quarter moon before a lunar eclipse, a critical juncture that directly ties to the Virgo Lunar Eclipse on March 14. We may receive news or we may need to make a decision. Family and relationships are in the spotlight. What are we investing our time in?
Mercury in Aries gets support from Pluto today, a sextile that is an opportunity for conversations that reveal hidden information, or present a deeper message. Mercury and Pluto are known to be able to deftly navigate psychological themes and material.
The Moon is in Taurus today, a Moon that seeks pleasure in the material world. It’s a day for food and creature comforts. With Venus now retrograde, it’s also a day to take stock of what we own, what we value, and what we invest time and money in.
We’re in a new lunar month, one that brings us to our first eclipse next week, a lunar eclipse at 23 Virgo. With Mercury arriving in Aries this week, another page turns in our ongoing eclipse story. Mercury brings an energy of renewal and new beginnings.
Mercury makes moves as we start the week, leaving Pisces for Aries. If Pisces is the end of the zodiac, Aries is the beginning. The planet of communication, curiosity, and choice brings its energies to a sign that is about action and the renewal of life.
Venus prepares to turn retrograde, taking the baton from Mars, which recently completed its retrograde. Like Mars, Venus is a planet that reveals our day-to-day lives. It is a review of what we love, how we connect, and what we invest time and money in.
It’s the dark of the moon, the last few days in the lunar month before a new moon. In this case, it’s the day before the Pisces New Moon, a time to rest, to go inward, and to integrate our experiences since the previous new moon on January 29.
