Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Welcome to April. We’ve got an action packed month ahead, starting with an Aries New Moon solar eclipse on April 8, just a week away. In the run up, we’re feeling the energies of transition. Time bends and shifts. The stage of our lives readies for the next act.
After water comes fire. Today’s Sagittarius Moon is a natural companion to the Aries Sun, a break from all the water energy and emotions of the past few days. We’re not only looking to the world, we’re opening up our eyes to new horizons
The Moon is doing most of the work this week as we navigate skies without any major aspects. Then again, we’re only three days after a lunar eclipse, which is enough for the week. We’re in a portal of space and time where we prepare for a new chapter.
There’s a heavy dose of water energy in the sky. With the Moon now in Scorpio, we have five planets in the water signs. It may be a day when we are feeling our emotions as well as Scorpio themes around vulnerability and trust, power and control.
A Libra Moon carries the energies of yesterday’s eclipse forward into a new day. We continue to examine our relationships and connections, to feel into past memories, to seek deeper understanding of why certain people have into our lives. It’s a release.
Here we are, our first eclipse, a lunar eclipse in Libra at 5 degrees. Time bends and shifts as a result. Relationships are in the spotlight. There’s a need to look at the past, especially past patterns. With Venus in Pisces, how do we let go, forgive, heal?
Mars arrives in Pisces. As the driving force behind Aries Season and an upcoming solar eclipse in Aries, we have to look back in order to move forward. We’ve entered a liminal passage. Pisces and Aries are two worlds, side by side. Deep realizations await us.
Venus joins with Saturn in Pisces, a test of relationships, a demand for commitment. By its nature, Saturn wants us to build partnership and connection with a solid foundation. And if a relationship is not in harmony, it’s time to set things right.
Welcome to Aries Season! The Sun is now in the first sign of the zodiac and we spring into a new astrological year. Ruled by Mars, Aries teaches us about power and drive, action and competition. It’s also leadership and courage, too.
The Sun prepares to leave Pisces, closing out the astrological year and transitioning us into the symbolic energies of spring and renewal. When the Sun arrives in Aries later today, it is a kick off, a leap forward into the energies of the upcoming eclipses.
It’s the astrological new year! The Sun arrives in Aries and we start a new cycle, a new journey on the Wheel of Life. Mars also enters Pisces and we approach our first eclipse. Life is heating up. Changes are on the horizon. Time is speeding up.
We’re wrapping up the astrological year as the Sun reaches the end of Pisces and we’re in a state of transition. Endings make way for new beginnings. We’re also a week away from a lunar eclipse. The coming days may bring notable events and decisions.
