Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Welcome to Libra Season! As of yesterday, the Sun is in the seventh sign of the zodiac, a sign that aligns with the start of autumn in the northern hemisphere and spring in the southern. It’s equal day and night, a season to seek balance and harmony.
The Sun makes its annual opposition to Neptune, an aspect that can make us feel adrift, sleepy, or even drained. Since the Sun is our vital force and Neptune pulls us beyond our physical world, we need to make sure our feet are on solid ground.
The Virgo Sun gets support from Uranus in Taurus, a trine that gives us a positive opportunity to reinvent, to see things from a new perspective. It may require changing some long held beliefs, especially if those beliefs are stopping our growth and evolution.
We’re still feeling the ripples of the Pisces lunar eclipse. Mercury in Virgo hits a major checkpoint with Saturn in Pisces today, an opposition that makes for a week of serious choices that not only build for our future, but for the enrichment of our soul.
Welcome to the Pisces Full Moon, which is also a lunar eclipse. This is the time in the lunar calendar when the spotlight is on fulfillment and purpose, peace and spirituality, art and music, dreams and intuition. Pisces is the bridge between heaven and earth.
We reach our first eclipse of the season, a Pisces Full Moon lunar eclipse. The spotlight is on matters of faith, truth, and meaning. We’re weighing our options with Jupiter in Gemini. Mercury opposite Saturn demands decisions, commitment, and accountability.
It’s a week with a lunar eclipse, which is to say it’s a week that pushes the gas pedal. Even though tomorrow’s eclipse is a Pisces Full Moon, a sign that isn’t generally in a hurry, eclipses have a habit of speeding things up. They often bring events and milestones.
With eclipses on the horizon, there may be a sense that life is turning a corner. Eclipses bend time. They open and close doors. With Mars square the Lunar Nodes, there’s a psychic theme around action and bravery. Do we have courage to move forward?
The Moon moves to Capricorn, a support for Virgo’s Season’s down-to-earth sensibilities. Time to get organized and tick items off our to-do list. With Saturn in Pisces, relationships are a focus, too, especially in advance of next week’s lunar eclipse in Pisces.
Another Sagittarius Moon day. Another day to look towards the stars. With the Moon pointing us towards Jupiter in Gemini, there’s a push for us to build our lives or to take on responsibilities that line up with our values and purpose in the world.
The Moon’s in Sagittarius today, a sign that ties together the Virgo Sun, Saturn in Pisces, and Jupiter in Gemini. These four signs help us to learn and discover the world. They help us to make meaning and seek purpose. They inspire existential questions.
Mercury returns home to Virgo and Virgo Season gets a gear shift. Fresh off a Saturn opposition, it’s a week to put things in order, to survey our lives. A lunar eclipse is on the horizon, too. There’s an importance to current experiences. Decisions need to be made.
