Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
We start the week off with a Taurus Moon, one that may make a slow start of things. We want to savor and enjoy life in Taurus, a sign that speaks to food, comfort, and our material lives. With Venus in Leo, we’re bringing in a dash of creativity and fun, too.
Aries Moon takes us into the weekend. We want to rush forward, take action, get things done. Between the recent full moon and the Aries Moon picking up on some tense astrology, we may be feeling strong emotions into Saturday. Gives this a positive outlet.
The Libra Moon meets up with Venus, bringing sweetness and charm to our day. Libra naturally wants us to connect with others, so it’s a day to look at our relationships as well as reach out to those who matter the most. Style and beauty are important, too.
It’s a powerful new lunar month, one marked with the energy of a solar eclipse. We’re ready to start fresh and strike out in a new direction. But with Mercury and Mars Retrograde, it’s more about planning than moving forward for the next week.
Normally today’s Aries Moon would want us to get up and go, but with Mars still retrograde (and Mercury), moving forward isn’t so straightforward. Retrogrades are always an important time for us to reconsider. Be conscious of your actions and your choices.
Between the Cancer Sun and the Scorpio Moon, we’re starting the weekend on a sensitive note. Scorpio loves a good heart-to-heart. It loves to dig and probe. Make sure you’re spending quality time with your inner circle or working on themes of intimacy, vulnerability, trust.
Things are heating up! The Moon moves into Aries, activating Mars’s slow retrograde connection to Uranus and the South Node of the Moon. Something from the past may be coming up. Conversation may be sharp, passionate, ideologically driven. We may be feeling impatient, restless.
Do you take action? What’s your relationship with leadership, drive, will? Do you stand up or stand down? Mars turns retrograde today, kicking off two months of reviewing these very themes. We’re looking back and tying up loose ends instead of moving forward.
The Moon in Sagittarius picks up on an indulgent, romantic connection between Venus and Jupiter. We may be longing for travel or looking at photos of beautiful, faraway lands. It’s also a day to explore, search, and discover different tastes or foods.
After ten weeks retrograde, Mars finally turns direct today. Phew! We’ve had to do some serious work on where we’re wrong, where our stubborn faith and nearsightedness have taken us of course. Hopefully we learned something.
Things are heating up today courtesy of an Aries Moon + Mars in Scorpio! Combine this with Mars at a near standstill, preparing to turn direct tomorrow, and you’ve got a recipe for a lot of messy emotions spilling out.
We’re in the build up to next week’s station of Mars. It will turn direct at 23 Scorpio on June 29. We’re feeling the ripples and waves of the energy in the collective. Mars rules Volcanos, so, as a result, we may feel like we’re ready to blow.
