Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
A few days ago we had the Leo Full Moon, a culmination of a dramatic lunar month that saw the departure of a few high profile artists and performers. Leo, ruled by the Sun, is the sign of the creator. As a result it’s a sign that naturally contains art, […]
Today Mercury will station direct after three weeks of winding its way back through Capricorn. During this time we’ve had to reexamine our word, our choices, and our responsibility for the things we manifest in our lives. Capricorn’s a sobering sign. We see things for what they are, laid out […]
Happy Leo Full Moon! This is the time of the year when the spotlight turns on creativity, self expression, pride, individuality, performance, and talent. Additionally Leo is known for its playful side as well as its love of arts, leisure, and romance. As a result, we may have a decision […]
Between Mercury’s line up with Pluto in Capricorn and a face off with the Cancer Moon, we’re in the middle of an energetic storm today. Things have been getting kicked up — old stories, patterns, emotions, some things we’d rather not even see. Here are some things to keep in […]
Sensitive Cancer Moon day that will highlight the home, family, roots, and feeling. The Moon is actually at home in Cancer, activating a need for emotional security and connection. This is often a time in the lunar month when we pull back, nest, and seek comfort. As I was explaining […]
Feel like venting? With Mercury making a square to Uranus today and approaching Pluto later this week, we can’t keep it in. Something has to be said, revealed. Additionally we may receive shocking or unexpected news as well as something ignites and inspires. I went into this more in depth […]
Are you a Gemini or Virgo or have major planets or angles in those signs? Just a heads up — Mercury will be passing through a rocky part of the zodiac over the next week and a half. If you recall, Mercury has been retrograde in Capricorn since early January. […]
Lazy day alert. With the Moon in Taurus and Venus making a square to Jupiter, it’s all about creature comforts, pleasure, and indulgence. In fact, the Moon will trine Jupiter today, a combo that is both generous and known for wanting more. Are we experiencing too much of a good […]
We’re half way through January! It’s a good time to take a moment and review your monthly horoscope. Now that we’ve gotten into a powerful new lunar month, you’ll have a different perspective on what I wrote about. (If you know your rising sign, read for it as well as […]
Back when I wrote about Saturday’s game changing new moon, I proposed that January 13–14 may be time frame when we’re really getting an idea for this lunar month is about. Keep in mind that new moons seed the reality that we experience over the following 28 days (aka the […]
We talked a little bit yesterday about the trend bucking, eccentric energies of Venus + Uranus. Venus has been in Sagittarius over the past couple of weeks, infusing our experiences of beauty and value with Sagittarian themes of freedom, faith, and the exotic. Uranus is a spark of individuality? But […]
Between the Moon in wonderfully weird Aquarius and Venus’s line up with Uranus today, I’ve been thinking about non conformity, from trailblazers to artistic geniuses, especially in the light of David Bowie’s death. (For students interested in David Bowie’s natal astrology, he had Aquarius rising with a Saturn/Pluto/Moon stellium in […]
