Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
We reach the first-quarter moon, an important checkpoint in a story initiated with the new moon a week before. With its powerful opposition between Mars and Pluto, this is a lunar month to make a leap in our evolution. An Aquarius Moon helps to anchor us.
The Moon travels between Capricorn and Aquarius, two Saturn-ruled signs. We continue Saturn’s themes of structure and order, responsibility and duty. We’re also coming up to the first-quarter moon after a powerful Scorpio New Moon. The page turns again.
The Moon is doing most of the talking this week, turning the page on the recent Scorpio New Moon and crossing from the sign of Sagittarius to Capricorn today. A Moon in Capricorn is focused and precise. It is a builder and asks us to turn our plans into reality.
Mars arrives in Leo, a vibe shift for Scorpio Season and a spark of romance and passion that ignite the energies of the Scorpio New Moon. Leo and Scorpio make for a sexy, dynamic duo. They also highlight themes of identity and the truth of who we are.
Welcome to November! It’s Scorpio Season, which means that we’re in a four week period where we’re exploring life through a sign that illuminates the impermanence of life. As the leaves change and the days grow darker, there is real magic to be discovered.
Happy Halloween. It’s the day the Celtics called Samhain and it traditionally marks the midway point between the equinox and the solstice. We’ve reached a threshold, a time when we cross from one space to another, a space of magic and spirits.
It’s the dark of the moon, the time in the lunar cycle to go within, to rest, to consult our inner oracle. On the cusp of Halloween, the spirit world is close. It’s a day to light a candle and reflect on our departed loved ones, but also connect to our highest guidance.
A Libra Moon brings us full circle since the Libra solar eclipse earlier this month. With Venus still in square to Saturn, this continues to be a week to invest in what’s important, what builds healthy partnership and connection, and what helps us to build for the future.
It may be Scorpio Season, but a Scorpio New Moon this week on November 1 is the real kickoff for the season. It’s a dynamic start with Mars in Cancer making an opposition to Pluto in Capricorn. November will demand evolution and transformation.
We start the week off with a Virgo Moon, the same Virgo Moon that may have carried us through weekend projects and organization. We bring this inspiration into the start of our week. Make a plan and schedule for the days ahead. Put everything in its place.
Another Leo Moon day. Another opportunity to play and create, to share our gifts and talents with the public. It’s a day to have fun, in contrast to this weekend and the Virgo Moon, better suited for cleaning up and cleaning out as well as service to the community.
The Moon shifts from Cancer to Leo, bringing some much needed fire to an otherwise watery sky. Leo activates desires and passions, creativity and inspiration. It also speaks to our duties and responsibilities as we reach the last-quarter moon.
