Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
We’re in the last day of Aquarius season, a time in the zodiac calendar that has pointed the way toward themes of belonging, community, and friends as well as the future and the things in life much bigger than the self. With Saturn in Sagittarius, the last couple of months […]
Hey guys. We’re in a week of cosmic gear shifts. Our girl Venus jumped into Aquarius yesterday and the Sun will arrive in Pisces on Friday. Plus, today the Moon will leave Gemini for Cancer. Things are in flux as a result. We’re checking out new territory as well as […]
This evening Venus will arrive in Aquarius, the sign of humanism, the collective, intellect, groups, and community. Venus in Aquarius is very egalitarian. She sets her own style. She’s a bit funky, futuristic, eccentric, and a trendsetter. She doesn’t play by the normal rules. But Venus is much more than […]
Happy Monday! Gemini Moon picking up aspects to Neptune and Saturn today. Normally Gemini likes to keep it light and buzz around, but the presence of Neptune and Saturn draws in deeper existential and spiritual themes. If Gemini is the sign of choice, then Saturn will have us examine our […]
Happy Friday! Come tomorrow, Mercury will finally get back into Aquarius, the sign that it turned retrograde in back on January 5. This means that we’ll officially be out of the shadow phase and moving into new territory. While Mercury was retrograde in Capricorn, we took a tough look at […]
Yesterday’s Pisces overload gives way to today’s powerful Aries Moon. With Mars over in Scorpio, there’s a strong current running through the air. Think action, investigation, discovery, intimacy, and hard truths. This will build into Saturday when the Moon makes contact with Uranus and Pluto. Use this energy to spark […]
Dreamy Pisces Moon day. Everything’s a little hazy, a little soft focused. Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac, the sign that brings us to the end of your worldly journey and dissolves us back toward Source. The Moon spends about two or so days in each sign and […]
Feeling a little indulgent? Venus and Jupiter will harmonize into tomorrow, two planets known for their outsized appreciation of beauty and pleasure when combined. That said, Venus is in Capricorn and Jupiter is in Virgo so the influence is a little more practical minded. Venus will have us reaching toward […]
I’ve been thinking a lot about Venus this week as she comes up to her annual merge with Pluto on Saturday. In the eyes of astrology, Venus is the key to understanding the archetypical energy of relationship, compromise, collaboration, value, worth, and resource. We all have Venus somewhere in our […]
Are you a Taurus or Libra? Have your ascendant or Moon in these signs? The heat is on the next few days as Venus, your ruling planet, makes a couple of tense alignments with Uranus and Pluto. You will feel a major push to make a change, a break from […]
There’s a lot of sextiles happening in the sky today — Sun/Saturn + Moon, Mars/Pluto, Mercury/Chiron. For all you astrology students, a sextile is a 60 degree aspect between two planets; it has the energy of Venus. The two planets are social, in support of each other, and have an […]
Happy Imbolc! We’re in the part of the zodiacal calendar when the Sun is halfway between the season. Here in the northern hemisphere we’re in mid-winter, the time when the Sun hits around 15 Aquarius. The ancients celebrated these “cross quarter days” with different rituals and festivals. Halloween is another […]
