Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Happy new moon! Happy solar eclipse! We begin a new lunar month, one set in of Aquarius, the sign of community, social networks, friendship, and humanitarian themes. Aquarius teaches about belonging. It also zooms us out and connects us to life at the level of its systems.
Happy love day. With Venus in Pisces, may our hearts be open to the shimmering, redemptive force of love in all its forms. Pisces teaches us that miracles can happen. But Saturn is in realer-than-real Capricorn; we can’t sidestep reality. Find the balance.
The Moon moves into Aquarius and we’re getting ready for tomorrow’s solar eclipse. Like a portal, eclipses rush things in and out of our lives. They mark the hour and tell us that it’s time for a change, perhaps even dramatically so. What do you feel changing?
It’s eclipse week and we prepare to turn the page in the narrative of our lives. Starting off with a the Moon in Capricorn, Monday opens us to the energy of responsibility and commitment. With Saturn also in Capricorn, we have to make hard, pragmatic choices.
We may be a couple of months into 2018, but we’re on the cusp of major astrological shifts, namely Uranus’s arrival in Taurus. Join me for a talk in Manhattan on March 1 where we’ll discuss the planet of awakenings and revolution sign change as well as other key events.
Venus arrives at the end of Aquarius, threading its way through eclipse degrees. Even though we’re a week away from the solar eclipse, the past couple of days gave a preview. Venus asks, do you value who you are? Do you value your place in the world?
With the Moon in Sagittarius, we’re feeling philosophical today. We’re also searching for truth meaning. The Moon will also meet up with Mars, so be careful of Mars in Sag’s tendency to be overly opinionated. Be open to ways of seeing old problems.
The Scorpio Moon angles its way past recent eclipse degrees. Like a seamstress, it threads a line back to February and August 2017, the two previous eclipse cycles. Today is part of a greater lunar tapestry, one that has helped us discover a deeper sense of identity.
The Moon passes through Scorpio and we turn towards life’s darker shades. Scorpio teaches us about the shadow, the facets of ourselves that we don’t want to recognize, the facets that show up in our relationships. Intimacy, vulnerability, trust are key themes today.
The Sun’s pulling away from the South Node of the Moon. The past few days have touched on karmic themes, karmic lessons, and the soul’s past. Events are emotionally charged right now and there’s a subtext to our experiences as we get closer to the solar eclipse.
Virgo Moon day. It’s time to pay attention to the details, set a schedule, and get things organized. Perhaps not the most glamorous way to start our weekend, but certainly the most productive for Saturday projects. Mercury in Aquarius helps us look to the future, too.
Welcome to Aquarius Season! We’re approaching the end of the astrological year and when we reach Aquarius, we’re seeing life through the lens of community, connection, and humanity. It’s a big picture sign, a sign that helps us dream of something better.
