Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Big news this week. We reach our second eclipse of the season, an Aries New Moon solar eclipse that sets the stage for the next six months. Eclipses mark new chapters and directions and Aries is a reboot. Neptune, after 13 years in Pisces, also arrives in Aries.
We start the week with the Moon in Aquarius, a Moon that has us looking towards the future, wishing and dreaming for something better. With Saturn in Pisces, it’s also a day to tap into our intuition and cultivate a vision for ourselves and the world.
With the Sun in Aries, we’re in the gate for an Aries solar eclipse, a new new moon that kicks off the astrological new year and puts us into the energies of Aries for the next six months — the cycle between each eclipse. Take this energy of action and put it to use.
Welcome to Aries Season! It’s an astrological new year. As the first sign of the zodiac, Aries invites us to find renewal and rediscover our fire. Ruled by Mars, it’s also a season to take the lead. We’re also a week away from a solar eclipse. New doors are opening.
The Sun reaches the end of the zodiac. And the end of Pisces is the finality of all the signs, symbols, and archetypes of our lived experiences. Pisces transmits this history to the great beyond, a record of our lives. We prepare to begin again tomorrow.
Welcome to Aries Season. It’s the start of the astrological year and we begin anew. With Mars in Cancer, this is a season to focus on home and family. But we’re also in a magical, liminal time between a lunar and solar eclipse. It’s a time of transition and change.
The Moon’s in Scorpio today, a watery mix that connects to the Pisces Sun and Mars in Cancer. It’s a day to feel our emotions, to consult our dreams, to listen to our intuition. Just days after an eclipse, the veil is thin. Scorpio leads us into the unknown.
Welcome to the Virgo Full Moon, the time in the lunar calendar to put things in order, to create structure, and to bring greater health and wellness to our lives. This full moon is also a lunar eclipse, a surge of energy that could bring pivot points and notable events.
The Moon’s in Virgo and we’re in the gate for tomorrow’s total lunar eclipse, a full moon at 23 Virgo. Eclipse energy can feel like something is moving or on the horizon. That’s because eclipses are the engines of time. The cosmic gears are moving.
The Sun and Saturn make their annual conjunction, this year at 22 Pisces. We’re beginning to come to the end of our journey with Saturn in Pisces. What have we learned about peace? Compassion? Understanding? It’s a day to step into roles of responsibility.
Mercury meets up with Venus in Aries, a meeting that inspires kind words and diplomatic solutions. With Venus Retrograde until April 12, decisions may require us to come up with better solutions or rework a choice from the past in order to move forward.
This week’s eclipse at 23 Virgo is one of the marquee events for 2025, putting the spotlight on creating order and structure. It’s also an eclipse that creates a need to be of service, to put things in order, to clean things up, to tend to our health and wellness.
