Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
The Moon crosses between Scorpio and Sagittarius, between a space where we had to reflect on what’s valuable and important to a need to try to make sense of things and arrive at the best conclusions. After the heaviness of the past few days, it’s a push to get moving.
We’re in the space between the eclipses, a two week passage where two chapters of time overlap. It’s a portal for things and even people to come in and out of our lives. Even though eclipse season takes us forward, we’re saying goodbye to Libra this week.
We’re between the eclipses. Can you feel it? A portal or intersection between two different threads of time? A twist or knot in the fabric of our lives? While we’re two days past a solar eclipse, its energy still brings us forward into something new.
Mars returns home to Scorpio, trading Libra for something far more familiar. As a result, there’s a chill in the air, the realization that we’re in a stage of the year that brings the decay necessary for new life to begin. It’s also the courage to seek deeper connection.
The Sun and Chiron face off in an opposition, an addition to an already crowded field of planets in advance of the October 14 solar eclipse. There’s a demand for healing. We have to have the courage to move on, the bravery to seek something better.
Pluto turns direct in Capricorn, one of the planet’s final turns in a sign it has occupied since 2008. It’s one final push to restructure before Pluto leaves in 2024. It may also be a day if not a week of revelations. Something previously hidden may come to light.
Powerful week as we arrive at a Libra Solar Eclipse, one that pivots us into a new chapter and draws upon the transformative energy of Pluto Direct and Mars newly in Scorpio. Doors are opening and closing. Relationships are in the spotlight. Emotions are raw.
We’ve got a packed week ahead. It’s not just the week of a solar eclipse, but Pluto changes directions, and Mars arrives in Scorpio. We’re standing in the threshold of something new. With Pluto and Mars as two of our guides, an ending is a beginning.
Venus comes to the end of Leo, a sign it’s spent the last four months in. Although a longer time than usual due to a retrograde, Venus taught us about the value of being ourselves and investing in the things that light us up and give us life.
The Cancer Moon brings us to the last-quarter moon, a time to look towards the future. With a solar eclipse only a week away, we’re also waiting in the wings for a new beginning. Through it we will live the next six months through the lens of Libra — relationships.
Mercury arrives in Libra, a breath of fresh air after two months of diligent, back-and-forth work in Virgo. During this time we had to take a second look at how we structure and organize everything. Now comes the time to leap forward and set plans into motion.
With the Moon in Gemini and Mercury making a sharp trine to Pluto, it’s a day for blunt truths and deep discoveries. Conversations have the power to transform. We may have to share our faith and convictions, revealing we believe in and what we stand for.
