Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
With March nearly done, we’ve navigated major changes in the astrological landscape with Saturn and Pluto recently in new signs. Our focus turns to Mars in Cancer this week. Our actions need to align with our hearts. We need to make home and family a priority.
It’s a new week and time to settle in with all our recent planetary changes. Although overshadowed by Saturn and Pluto switching signs, we’re in new territory with Mars, now in Cancer. We need to prioritize what matters and what nurtures and supports us.
Cancer isn’t a natural sign for Mars to pay a visit. As the planet of action and forward movement, Mars has to learn to instead navigate Cancer’s emotional ebb and flow. That said, Mars ultimately motivates us to find connection and prioritize home and family.
In a week filled with both seasonal transitions and larger shifts, Mars is poised to change signs after seven months in Gemini, arriving in Cancer tomorrow. What have we learned about choice, communication, and the motivations behind our actions?
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.
The Moon trades gentle Pisces for Aries, picking up on a powerhouse opposition between Mars and Pluto that’s brewing in the sky. As a result, we may feel a dynamic push to make important changes, transforming or reforming something from the past.
It’s a powerful week that kicks off with a Scorpio Full Moon! One that not only activates deep emotions and feelings around stability, trust, and security, but a story of powerful reinvention that began in May 2018, March 2019, when Uranus first entered Taurus.
Welcome to the Scorpio Full Moon. It’s the time in the lunar calendar when the spotlight is on our deepest emotions. As a water sign, Scorpio teaches us about intimacy and vulnerability. It’s also where we meet our fears, our shadow, and our psyche.
Mars arrives in Cancer. For the next six weeks, we’re prioritizing home and family, connection and support. But we may also feel where we’re lacking these things in our lives, deeply so. Time to take action. We’re also motivated to reconnect to the past.
Taurus Moon takes us into the weekend, a Moon that likes to graze, taste, and enjoy life’s simple pleasures. Make sure you connect with positive earth today, an element that’s all about good food, nice things, and the abundance of the material world.
Aries Moon gets us moving. It’s a day for action and motivation. With Mars still in Cancer, we may be feeling a little temperamental. Give this energy a focus, putting it towards work and projects as well as setting healthy goals to strive towards.
Mars and Mercury oppose Pluto today, a high stress aspect that demands that we have to change how we act, how we communicate, how we think. Pluto also reveals what we’re not owning. It’s a day to speak up and take our power back.
