Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Today’s Sagittarius Moon points us towards the stars, inspires us to look towards the world, to seek and explore, to find answers. But with Jupiter about to turn retrograde in Gemini, there’s a tension, one that may pull on matters of faith, truth, and meaning.
Jupiter and Pluto change directions, two heavy hitters and that pull at matters of faith and transformation. Emotions are running high, especially a week after a solar eclipse. We’re still feeling ripples. Mercury also arrives in Scorpio; it’s a deep look within.
With last week’s solar eclipse behind us, we’re in a new setting of time, one that takes us into the next six months. It’s still a week of transitions and one that may be marked by events as well as a psychic intensity, especially as we come up to the first-quarter moon.
With all the ups and downs with the recent solar eclipse, we do have Saturn giving us a steady hand this week. Today’s trine between Venus in Scorpio and Saturn in Pisces is an opportunity to find stability as well as common ground in a tense situation.
Fresh off a Libra New Moon and solar eclipse, we’re in a new space of time, one that we are only beginning to open up to. With Venus in Scorpio, we may be feeling strong emotions. There’s a demand to look deep within.
Tomorrow’s Libra New Moon not only opens a new lunar month, but sets the stage for the next six months. After all, the new moon is also a solar eclipse, one that emphasizes the archetype of Libra — harmony, cooperation, connection, peace, and negotiation.
This week we reach our final eclipse of the season, a solar eclipse at 10 Libra that puts a significant focus on relationship and connection, harmony and balance into the next six months. Eclipses strike the hours of our lives, coinciding with major events.
We’re in the dark of the moon. Just two days before a solar eclipse, there’s a sense of electricity in the air. The great stage of our lives readies for its next act. The coming days and weeks will bring new focus. And for some, a notable change.
We go into a weekend that brings us to the dark of the moon, the time before a new moon when we release and prepare for the next chapter. With a new moon on the horizon that is also a solar eclipse, a greater cycle has come to a close.
Mercury arrives in Libra, joining the Sun. Over the next few days, we’re preparing for a solar eclipse. With Mercury in the mix, we may need to revisit past relationships or relationship patterns or existing relationship. We’re at an inflection point.
As Mercury wraps up its time in Virgo, it makes an opposition to Neptune, an aspect that has a habit of creating confusion. While it’s good to double check communication, use Mercury and Neptune for creative pursuits, artistic endeavors, and the use of intuition.
With the Sun in Libra, the spotlight is on Venus in Scorpio for the next few weeks. It’s a season to not just look at relationships in all their forms, but to examine their psychological foundations. Scorpio is driven to examine, to transform. It needs trust above all.
