Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
It’s that time of year again; Mercury turns retrograde. Although its energy is known for turning things upside down, it’s important to have a different awareness of this time, using this energy to reflect, recalibrate, and see relationships from a different perspective.
We start the week off with a Pisces Full Moon! One that brings us to the liminal spaces of our lives. We may need to let go in order to move forward, forgive in order to heal. We’re also saying goodbye to Virgo Season as the Sun arrives in Libra on September 22.
Mars arrives in Libra, a sign where the planet of action and self motivation needs to learn to compromise and share. Virgo Season also gets a little hazy as the Sun makes its annual opposition to Neptune in Pisces. Emotions may be running high.
It’s Virgo Season and this week’s Virgo New Moon gives September a reset and focus for its energies. And after the intensities of August, it’s time to get back to basics as we turn our attention to work and projects, health and wellness. Time to get organized.
Although we’re just days into Virgo Season, we still have a foot in Leo Season as we come to the end of a Leo lunar month. That said, there’s a focus on spirituality as well as compassion and surrender as Mars makes an opposition to Neptune.
This week Mercury, the ruler of Virgo, makes an opposition to Neptune and maybe the details aren’t so clear. Maybe we need to align our plans with divine plans. Virgo Season also reminds us that the Sun is at the midpoint of the eclipses.
Uranus turns retrograde in Taurus. It’s a week of awakenings, breakthroughs, seismic shifts, and swift changes. It’s also the next chapter in a story that began in 2018, 2019. Plus, an Aquarius Full Moon brings the week to dramatic close.
Mars and Mercury at the bending as they cross the lunar nodes and echo recent eclipses. There’s a need for discernment as we push to take action and make major decisions. As a result, this may be a week where the narrative changes.
In 2021, it’s as if we have one foot in a new life, one foot in an old one. And there are points throughout the year where we feel a strong pull between these two halves. With this week’s Leo New Moon and its activations of Saturn and Uranus, we’re at one of those points. How will we resolve the tension?
The story is changing! Three planets — Mercury, Jupiter, Mars — switch signs this week, which means that we can expect both new chapters as well as a return to old ones. Plus, we have some serious decisions to make as Mercury comes up to an opposition to Saturn.
We’re saying goodby to Cancer Season and stepping into Leo Season! It’s all about reconnecting to the spark within. Also, an Aquarius Full Moon puts a spotlight on a bigger story we’ve been working on in 2021.
Fresh off of last week’s Cancer New Moon, we’re coming back to what really matters. Cancer is the sign of home and family and certainly Cancer Season is a time to replenish and reconnect to these things, but at the core of this time is to get back to whatever […]
