Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
The Moon’s in Leo. Time to make time for the things that are important, that give us life, and ignite our passion. With Venus about to turn retrograde, Leo is a sign that we’ll be working on in the coming weeks.
We’ve got a lot of astrology going on this week. Fresh off the Cancer New Moon, the Lunar Nodes have changed signs, signaling a new collective “north”. For the next 18-months, we’re reaching towards Aries.
Big news! The Lunar Nodes change signs, moving into Aries-Libra. It’s another pivot point for the year. Venus also turns retrograde. Mars faces off with Saturn in Pisces. And it’s a Cancer New Moon.
We’re in the Dark of the Moon. Time to reflect on our choices and actions over the last four weeks. With a sextile between the Sun and Uranus, we may find a flash of brilliance in quiet moments. We just have to work to cultivate that stillness.
The Moon’s in quick thinking Gemini, especially with Mercury in Leo. It’s a flash of fire and air for an otherwise emotionally saturated Cancer Season. It also means we’re rounding out the lunar month and a story that began with the Gemini New Moon on June 18.
The Sun squares Chiron in Aries. Although the aspect is exact today, we may have been navigating an old pain this week, a thread that draws us back to previous emotions or experiences that continue to ache. It’s a day to find healing, to have the courage to move forward for the sake of ourselves and others.
Mercury arrives in Leo. We’re learning to find our artistic voice, to put our spirit into everything we create. Over the next three weeks, seek out performance, cultivate romance, choose what’s in your heart. It’s an early preview of Leo Season, which starts next week.
Mars arrives in Virgo, a change in gears for Cancer Season. We’ve got work to do, especially with Mars opposing Saturn into next week. Mercury also arrives in bright and creative Leo. Plus, we’re wrapping up the lunar month and going into the dark of the moon
Mars, the planet of drive and action, arrives in Virgo and gets to work with precision and detail. It’s time to organize our lives, put things in order, and start new projects. We’re seeking purity and perfection. This is a Mars that also wants to be of service to others.
A Pisces Moon takes us into the weekend, a double dose of element water to our Cancer Sun. Pisces is a big-hearted sign that asks us to be the same. With Jupiter in Taurus, we’re getting philosophical and spiritual, we’re looking for deeper connection.
Mercury in Cancer squares off with Chiron in Aries. Do we have the courage and the bravery to make the right choice? To go after what we want? To speak up? In order to move forward, we have to untie ourselves from the links to the past.
The Moon’s in Aquarius, a sign that makes us aware of larger issues and themes that connect us as a collective. It also reaches into a deep emotional space, touching on additional themes of intimacy and vulnerability, trust and power.
