Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
We start the week with a practical Virgo Moon, one that wants to get things checked off the to-do list. With Mercury still in contact with Saturn, there’s more pressure to set limits and boundaries, put things into order, and create more fairness and equity.
Mercury makes the last of its squares to Saturn. We have serious decisions to make. We have to chose our words wisely. We have to put things back into order and balance. A Cancer Moon also makes things tense as we round out the week.
Moon in Cancer day, one that picks up on the watery energy of Scorpio Season. Emotions run high. We’re feeling sensitive, nostalgic, and crave comfort and familiarity. We may also feel impassioned about matters of faith, conviction, and integrity.
The Moon straddles Gemini and Cancer today, two very different signs. While Gemini is restless in its pursuit of information and ideas, Cancer wants us to slow down and find comfort, care, and connection. With Mercury Direct, things are a little wonky, too.
Mercury turns direct after a three week retrograde spanning the signs of Scorpio and Libra. We’ve had to reinvestigate, research, and reevaluate. With Mercury pivoting in aspect to Saturn, there are serious choices to weigh that may impact our future.
Mercury turns direct this week and boy did I have my hands full with Mercury during my live look at the astrology. In my second recording, I talk about how this week touches on the upcoming eclipse season and gets us ready for the next big act.
We’re coming off some big full moon vibes, one that may have shifted or upended things, even the way of seeing ourselves. With the Moon in Gemini, we’re feeling a pull to search and explore deep within and find answers to mysteries.
The Moon trades Aries for Taurus, moving from dynamic and energized to sensual and grounded. Normally this would be a weekend to slow down and enjoy the beauty and pleasure of Taurus, but the October 31 full moon shakes us awake and opens our eyes.
The sky starts to heat up as an Aries Moon meets up with Mars and rounds past three planets in Capricorn. It’s not only a day to focus on work and responsibilities, but we may be feeling a little temperamental and prickly, too.
Venus and Mercury change signs, arriving in Libra. Relationships once again are a focal point, from how we interact and socialize to how connect and communicate with one another. Mercury in retrograde also revisits events and choices from late September.
We’re wrapping up our time with the Pisces Moon today, a Moon that may feel a little listless and untethered. It’s a day best spent resting, integrating, meditating, and intuiting. Since it’s Scorpio Season, pull a tarot or oracle and reflect on the answers received.
Happy Halloween week! It’s no coincidence that it coincides with Scorpio Season and its penchant for the shadowier side of things. Scorpio teaches us about the duality of creation, that both light and dark, angels and devils, life and death exist side by side.
