Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
The 12th house in astrology isn’t known for being particularly transparent. It is, after all, traditionally the house of secret sorrows and self undoings. That can’t be good, my teen-aged self once thought, especially as I looked nervously to my Mercury, Neptune, and Mars conjunction hovering above my ascendant. Secret […]
We’ve all experienced synchronicity at one time or another. You know, a series of coincidences that defy logical explanation. Like you’re thinking about taking a trip to Paris and then you later receive an email from a website announcing travel deals to Paris. Yeah, that kind of synchronicity. Personally, I’m […]
During this time of great cardinal initiation, as we build up to peak energies, I’ve noticed a theme subtly running though the last few weeks. While all of us have been distracted by planets in the signs of Aries, Libra, and Capricorn, we’ve been missing quiet Cancer poking and prodding […]
For all its niceties and focus on beauty, it would be a little unfair of us to paint the sign of Libra with such superficial strokes. After all, this girl has some real depth beyond a bad reputation for vanity. And Saturn transiting Libra over the next two years reminds […]

A year and a half ago I was in a pretty bad car accident. As a passenger, I remember the moment before the crash when I registered a pair of headlights swerve into our lane — that split second when you realize what’s going to happen and that there is […]
What great leap in consciousness did you make 13 years ago? What radical new concept infused into your life? What jolt did you receive to your philosophy or beliefs? Think back to the first few months of 1997. Anything? The reason I point out this specific period in our lives […]
When a slow moving outer planet such as Saturn switches zodiac signs, recently entering Libra before retrograding back into Virgo last week, there is a subtle shift in focus from one area of our life to another. Our preview of Saturn in Libra asked us many questions: Do we have […]
Previously, I’ve written about the rough and tumble energies that are present in the Saturn-Pluto square and the earthquakes — both personal and physical — that have been disrupting our lives. However that energy is going to take on a new tenor when the planets Uranus and Jupiter join the […]
