Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Welcome to Virgo Season, a season where we have to get back to basics after the fun and play of Leo Season. As we open a new month on an unusual year, it’s time to reassess, get organized, and get focused with a plan.
The Moon slips into Pisces and brings us closer to tomorrow’s full moon. We’re navigating the divide between heaven and earth, what we can feel concretely and what needs to be sensed or intuited. It’s watery, hazy, spiritual day that invites us to let go.
As we go into this week, we have a Pisces Full Moon on September 2, one that puts a spotlight on spirituality, inner wisdom, and compassion. It’s in Pisces that we connect to something larger than us and learn to stop resisting what we can no longer resist.
We start the week with an Aquarius Moon, one that points us towards the systems and networks that we’re a part of, whether it’s our social circle and community or the issues and causes that unite — or divide — us all. Aquarius is the sign of humanity.
We go into the weekend with a super serious Capricorn Moon. Picking up on the Virgo Sun, there’s a focus on work and duties as well as the things we need to do in order to build for our future. But with Mars still square Saturn, the pressure is on.
The Moon trades Sagittarius for Capricorn and it’s time to get back to reality. We need to focus on work and practical matters over the next couple of days. And with Mars and Saturn still lingering in a square, we may be facing hard facts or feelings.
We’re still taking it a little easy with today’s Sagittarius Moon, what with Venus and Jupiter still connecting. But it’s Virgo Season. We have things to do around the home, from projects to other duties and responsibilities. We’re daydreaming a little, too.
The Moon moves into Sagittarius and it’s a little more of a lazy day after yesterday’s intense square between Mars and Saturn. With Venus opposing Jupiter, we may be focused on the comforts and indulgences of home. But a Virgo Sun still needs to stay on task.
The great celestial gears shift again this week. Mars, after making its way past Jupiter and Pluto, makes a square to Saturn in Capricorn. This is high pressure astrology. We have to take responsibility, set boundaries, and find accountability.
We start the week as two powerful forces come up against each other. Mars in Aries makes a square to Saturn in Capricorn. This is a test of our efforts, a reality check, or a need for more discipline and responsibility. We’re setting hard boundaries, too.
A Libra Moon takes us into the weekend, a moon that wants to connect, socialize, and create beauty. It’s a busy day, one that may be marked by lots of conversation or even a few trips here and there. We’re feeling sensitive, too, with Venus in Cancer.
Mercury arrives in Virgo and we’re starting to move closer to Virgo Season, a time to get organized and prepared for the harvest and the months ahead. Mercury is also at home in Virgo, where it favors analysis, critical thinking, and editing.
