Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
The Moon rounds out its time in Pisces and we start the weekend in the dark of the moon. Although the days before a new moon tend to be quiet, we’re on the cusp of a fiery, unpredictable Aries New Moon. Emotions are heating up; we’re ready to run forward.
Today’s Pisces Moon is a reminder that Chiron is on the verge of leaving Pisces, a sign its occupied for the last seven years. During this time we’ve struggled with our pain, our wounds, our suffering. Do we still have faith that it will all work out?
Of all the elements, it’s element earth that’s getting a lot of play right now. Earth invites us to ground, get nourished, and build something for ourselves. With Venus in Taurus harmonizing with Mars in Capricorn, we have an opportunity to find our real value.
The Sun makes contact to Pluto, putting light on our shadows. We all have spaces within us that we don’t want to acknowledge, facets of ourselves that sabotage or limit. This is a power day, a day to look at ourselves, even if it’s uncomfortable.
We start the week with an Aquarius Moon, one that shows us life through the lens of friendship, community, and social connection. Aquarius, an air sign, is also quite intellectual. As much as today may be about socializing, it’s also about big ideas.
We’re sliding into a Saturn driven weekend. With the Capricorn Moon picking up on Saturn and Mars, we’ve got a few things to figure out. Namely, our goals, our ambitions, and our plans for the future. Saturn wants us to push ourselves, even if it seems impossible.
We’re half way through Mercury Retrograde, our periodic rewind. What are you having to do over? Rethink? Although Mercury Retrograde can come with a side of hijinks and breakdowns, it helps us make new choices after seeing the result of our previous ones.
The Sagittarius Moon lightens the mood a little, inspiring us to explore and dream of far off places, but we’re still surfing a serious vibe courtesy of Jupiter in Scorpio. The sky’s a little testy, too, so look out for philosophical debates and hot headed exchanges.
Scorpio Moon touches on Jupiter, opening us up to themes of vulnerability and trust. As a water sign, Scorpio teaches us about the power of emotional connection as well as facing our fears. Jupiter gives us the faith to dive into Scorpio’s unknown.
Welcome to Aries Season. We’re officially in a new astrological year and Aries has the honor of being the first sign. For that it’s a season of new beginnings, a time to move forward, a time for vitality. Ruled by the planet Mars, Aries connects us with courage.
Moon in Scorpio cranking up the vibes on this intense Mars/Saturn mashup we’re having today. Not exactly the easiest of energies, but not only makes for a powerful start to the workweek, but the start of a new cycle of achievement.
Happy Libra Full Moon! This is the time in the lunar calendar when the spotlight is on relationships, harmony, and beauty. As the complement to Aries, Libra takes us out of ourselves and into the world through socialization and partnership.
