Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
The Moon is in Cancer as we start the week, a Moon that touches on the nostalgic and the familiar. Only a few days after a potent Taurus Full Moon, we may need this Moon to find our anchor, to make sense of recent shifts, to look outward for answers.
Welcome to the Taurus Full Moon, the time in the lunar calendar when the spotlight is on our material lives, from the basic essentials as well as property and assets to larger themes about value and worth. It’s also the earth beneath our feet and the pleasure of living.
Saturn is about to turn direct in Pisces, a page in a story that has been unfolding since March 2023. If astrology is about time and how we symbolically live time, then Saturn is the master hand on the cosmic clock. It is pointing to the hour of our lives.
We’re two days before a powerful Taurus Full Moon, one that will be a spotlight for Uranus, also in Taurus. This week’s events and big ideas have their roots in 2018, 2019, the years that Uranus first arrived in Taurus, the start of a major shake up.
The Moon moves from Pisces to Aries and Scorpio Season gets another dose of element fire alongside Mars in Leo. It’s a day for creativity, but also a day to turn our visions into reality, to create a plan, to get to work. Health and wellness are a focus, too.
Venus arrives in Capricorn, just in time for a Taurus Full Moon on November 15. Capricorn and Taurus are earth signs, signs that speak to our real lives. Along with Saturn turning direct, it’s a week of commitments, milestones, and even awakenings.
Venus arrives in Capricorn, a sign where the planet of love and money likes to build and strategize for the future, whether through solid, long-standing partnerships, or through financial investments and assets. It also brings a recent solar eclipse into sharp focus.
Venus, reaching the end of its time in Sagittarius, makes a square to Neptune in Pisces this weekend. It’s an aspect that can be all glitz and glamor, magnetic beauty and otherworldly allure. Can we look beyond the facade to find the beauty within?
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.
