Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Welcome to the Pisces Full Moon, which is also a lunar eclipse. This is the time in the lunar calendar when the spotlight is on fulfillment and purpose, peace and spirituality, art and music, dreams and intuition. Pisces is the bridge between heaven and earth.
We reach our first eclipse of the season, a Pisces Full Moon lunar eclipse. The spotlight is on matters of faith, truth, and meaning. We’re weighing our options with Jupiter in Gemini. Mercury opposite Saturn demands decisions, commitment, and accountability.

The full moon is also right on Mars, making something that we call a conjunction in astrology. This is a bit of an angry or in-your-face placement for Mars, like someone, out of no where, telling you how they really feel. And seeing how Mars is retrograde, we have something to work out from the past.
Happy Pisces New Moon! Happy solar eclipse! This is the time of the year when we open up a new chapter focused on compassion, healing, spirituality, retreat, mysticism, art, and music. If new moons are new beginnings, then a solar eclipse turns our focus to the coming six months. The new moon […]
