Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Eclipses strike a new hour. Every six months our lives turn swiftly, heralding new beginnings. With a solar eclipse in Aries, the first in its series, we are stepping into a new story over. On the other hand, a lunar eclipse in Scorpio brings a story to a decisive end.
Venus squares off with Saturn, an aspect that has a reputation for pumping the breaks. For all of Venus’s multitude of ideas and options, Saturn urges us to focus on what’s practical. It’s a need to commit to what’s right or recalibrate what’s not working.
The Moon’s in no-nonsense Capricorn today, bringing our attention to duty and responsibility. We’re going after our ambitions, too. But with Saturn now in Pisces, where it will be for the next three years, our ambitions have to align with our heart and soul.
The Sun and Jupiter meet up, inspiring new beginnings and adventures as well as a search for meaning. Venus gets charming and a bit flirty, arriving in Gemini for the next four weeks. But, first, it has to check-in with Saturn, a planet that demands commitment.
The Sun meets up with Jupiter in Aries into tomorrow, a burst of confidence and a push for new horizons and adventures. Paired with a Sagittarius Moon, we’re feeling element fire, an element that inspires, motivates, and illuminates. It also demands faith.
A Scorpio Moon takes us into the weekend, one that plays on our deeper emotions and works to reveal something typically hidden within. With Mars in Cancer, this may be complicated or messy emotions from the past, from memory, and from family.
Welcome to April! Weâre getting ready for Eclipse Season, the first to showcase Aries and its new beginnings. But, first, a Libra Full Moon lights up the sky, turning our attention to relationships and shaking up the status quo. Mercury also moves into Taurus.
We start the week with a Virgo Moon, one that gets a push from Mercury at the end of Aries. Time to tidy up, get organized, and make plans for the days ahead. When Mercury arrives in Taurus later today, we’re investing in our material stability and security.
Big news! Pluto changes signs for the first time since 2008, arriving in Aquarius and giving us a preview of a major change in our lives. It’s also the start of Aries Season followed by an Aries New Moon. Mars arrives in Cancer after seven long months in Gemini.
Last day of Capricorn Season. We’ve reached the top of the summit. What lessons have we learned? The Sun not only reaches the end of the sign, but reaches the degree of the upcoming solar eclipse on April 20. Look for the new beginnings that await us.
Welcome to the Taurus Full Moon, part of a pair of eclipses that began with a Scorpio solar eclipse. The spotlight is on stability and security, money and income, value and worth. We may be navigating critical events and decisions. There may be a shake up, too.
It’s a lunar eclipse in Taurus! We’re capping off eclipse season with the powerful energies of Uranus and Saturn, which may bring tectonic shifts. An area of our lives may shake up in unexpected ways. Saturn aspects this week demand commitment, responsibility.
