Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Another Moon in Libra day, one that picks up on the energies of Venus in Libra alongside the South Node of the Moon. It’s a day to reflect back on an old relationship, to contemplate themes of value and worth, to see a connection for what it really is.
Mars, the planet of drive and action, dives into Cancer, turning our focus towards home and family. Our living situation and household, past and memory demand our attention. We’re also leading with our sensitivity and empathy, fighting for those we love.
Mars trades Gemini for Cancer, a sign where the planet of action and determination has to navigate the emotional ebbs and flows of life. In Cancer, Mars also can no longer be self motivated. Instead, the emotional needs of others take priority.
Fresh off a Virgo New Moon and its energies of organization and practice, we have a mandate to bring our lives into order. An opposition to Saturn may mean that we’re in for a reality check or may feel a push to make a lasting decision this week.
We start the week off with a Virgo New Moon, a reset for work and projects as well as our health and wellness. It’s time to get back to our real life duties and responsibilities. With Saturn opposing, we’ve got big decisions to make. We also need to be the adult.
Welcome to the Virgo New Moon, the time in the lunar calendar when the page turns to the daily duties and practicalities of life. Virgo is systems, particularly the systems that make our lives run. It’s health and wellness, purity and devotion, order and structure.
Big news as both Pluto and Uranus make moves. On September 1 Uranus turns retrograde followed by Pluto’s reentry into Capricorn. As evolutionary planets, Pluto and Uranus speak of transformation and awakening, shifting our consciousness.
Venus arrives home to Libra, a sign where Venus teaches us the necessity of diplomacy and connection. With the South Node in Libra and a solar eclipse only a month away, Venus in Libra also heralds a change on the horizon, especially in a relationship.
Venus in Virgo opposes Neptune in Pisces, a dreamy and alluring influence for the planet of love and relationships. Neptune makes for magnetic beauty, but it can also have us questioning if something is real or an illusion. Make space for unconditional love.
Another Gemini Moon day. Another day for conversations, connections, and curiosity. As we reach the last-quarter moon, we’re wrapping up a lunar month that began on August 4. What has worked? What are our choices going forward? What are our duties?
Pluto returns to Capricorn for its two-month-long finale, closing out of a chapter that began in 2008. Uranus turns retrograde in Taurus, a demand for new consciousness and realities. Mercury also turns direct and shifts gears for Virgo Season.
A curious and restless Gemini Moon starts off our week, activating Mars and Jupiter, also in Gemini. With the energies of the Virgo Sun, we’ve got things to do, responsibilities to manage, and duties to perform. There’s a push to get organized.
