Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Mars in Leo makes a powerful square to Uranus, a jolt that gets our week moving. It’s a new chapter in a story that not only began last year., but takes us to a shift that began in 2018, 2019. Mercury dives into Cancer and Neptune also turns retrograde in Pisces.
Fresh off of a new moon and Saturn Retrograde, we turn the page on a new season and go into an achievement-minded week. We’re feeling a push to step up, make our mark, or set necessary limits. The Sun also arrives in Cancer and marks the solstice.
It’s a structural point for the year as Pluto returns Capricorn and Saturn turns retrograde in Pisces. We’re building as well as breaking down the past and opening our hearts. We also wrap up a lunar month, which brings us to a Gemini New Moon on June 18.
Venus arrives in Leo for a four month stay, an extended look at our relationship with creativity, passion, and romance. Mercury finally arrives home to Gemini, a buzzy renewal for the season. And Pluto returns to Capricorn to begin to wrap up old business.
A Sagittarius Full Moon lights up the sky, showcasing Jupiter, newly in Taurus. Time to look at our beliefs around money and scarcity, value and worth. With a square to Saturn, we have some serious decisions to make. Our faith is also put to the test.
Welcome to Gemini Season! Time to get curious and explore. With Mercury in Taurus, however, we’ve got to weigh our options first. Mars, newly in Leo, also makes a dynamic square between Jupiter and the Nodes, another ripple of eclipse energy.
Jupiter arrives in Taurus! The planet of faith and philosophy turns our attention to the material plane for the next year. We also have a Taurus New Moon, a big boost for recent eclipse energies. Mars also arrives in Leo, bringing us into a dynamic second half of May.
We say goodbye to another Eclipse Season. The lunar eclipse may have passed, but its energy is still with us. The Sun and Uranus in Taurus shake things up. Venus is now in Cancer, a shift for Taurus Season that brings us back home in search of connection.
It’s eclipse week! A powerful Scorpio lunar eclipse lights up the sky and brings a dramatic conclusion to eclipse season. Pluto also turns retrograde in Aquarius, our first big check-in with a new era. Combined, it’s a week of high emotions and pivot points.
Welcome to Taurus Season. We’re in the portal between eclipses, a gateway that rushes people as well as events in and out of our lives. We’re also coming up to Pluto Retrograde, which means that it’s a powerful week for metamorphosis and change.
Here is a clip from my recent webinar, The Eclipses of April & May 2023, a deep dive into the power of eclipses and how they herald the major events of our lives. These eclipses in particular close out a story that began in late 2021 and usher in something very new.
We officially kick off eclipse season with a powerful solar eclipse on April 20 that touches on Pluto in Aquarius. A new life is ready to rush in. We may have already seen clues in the previous days and weeks. Mercury also turns retrograde in Taurus on April 21.
