Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Mars in Cancer and Chiron in Aries create friction, an aspect that may pull at old emotional scar tissue. If we are feeling something come up, it may be very old, a repeat of a theme or thread that runs its way through different parts of our lives. Look for healing.
The Moon straddles Capricorn and Aquarius, elements earth and air. As a result, part of the day may be more focused on practical matters — work, planning, and building — while the other is full of movement and the exchange of big ideas.
Happy Pisces New Moon! This is the time of the lunar calendar when we pull back from the world, look inward, and seek answers for life’s existential questions. Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac, one that bridges this life and the next.
As we round out a busy Pisces Season, we’re coming up on a stretch of sky occupied by Chiron, a planet that asks us to look at our pain, our psychic scar tissue, the knots that hold us back both personally and collectively. Life is hitting a nerve.
Venus moves into Aries and the planet of cooperation now has to find the courage to strike out on its own. If Venus is also what we value, then we’re attracted to passion, bravery, and action. Our relationships and experiences with others will heat up as well.
Feeling frustrated? Mars, in the final degrees of Gemini, will make a square to Chiron today and things may not be going according to plan. Our actions may feel thwarted. If emotions bubble up, a deeper story may be coming up for you to heal.
Both Venus and Mars are rounding out stays in Aries and Gemini respectively. Come next week we’ll see a shift in the weather after a few months of false starts and do-overs. Venus will breathe life to fertile, earthy Taurus. Mars will press emotional buttons in Cancer.
The Moon is in Pisces and we’re in the gate for tomorrow’s lunar eclipse. There is an electricity in the air. Emotions are running high. Our dreams are vivid but real life is hazy. A psychic storm gathers on the horizon.
As a newer addition to astrology, Chiron is a powerful, subtle influence that astrologers are only now incorporating into their work. But I think Chiron is often misunderstood, awkwardly labeled as the “wounded healer” does little to describe its function.
