Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
The Moon trades Taurus for Gemini, the earth for the air. Things may be a little slow to start for most of the day, picking up later as the Moon finally crosses into Gemini. Then, we’re feeling more social, more focused on our goals and aims into tomorrow.
We go into the weekend with a super serious Capricorn Moon. Picking up on the Virgo Sun, there’s a focus on work and duties as well as the things we need to do in order to build for our future. But with Mars still square Saturn, the pressure is on.
The Moon trades Sagittarius for Capricorn and it’s time to get back to reality. We need to focus on work and practical matters over the next couple of days. And with Mars and Saturn still lingering in a square, we may be facing hard facts or feelings.
The great celestial gears shift again this week. Mars, after making its way past Jupiter and Pluto, makes a square to Saturn in Capricorn. This is high pressure astrology. We have to take responsibility, set boundaries, and find accountability.
We start the week as two powerful forces come up against each other. Mars in Aries makes a square to Saturn in Capricorn. This is a test of our efforts, a reality check, or a need for more discipline and responsibility. We’re setting hard boundaries, too.
A Libra Moon takes us into the weekend, a moon that wants to connect, socialize, and create beauty. It’s a busy day, one that may be marked by lots of conversation or even a few trips here and there. We’re feeling sensitive, too, with Venus in Cancer.
The Moon moves into Virgo and it’s time to focus on the details of daily life, from tending to our to do list to organization and projects. Since we’re coming off of yesterday’s new moon, we need to put this new chapter into form and shape.
We’re transitioning from one lunar month to another as we welcome a Leo New Moon, a new moon that wants us to simply get back in touch with ourselves. But this week we may be feeling another build up of stress as Mars get ready to square Saturn.
We’re in the dark of the moon. Although it’s the start of the week, a time when we typically make plans and get things organized, we may find that we’re winding down instead of starting up. What have we learned since the July 20 Cancer New Moon?
Mars in Aries begins to move past Pluto and some of its intensity begins to subside. We may be still be examining deep themes around power and control as well as the courage to take action. That said, we’re revisiting these themes into the end of the year.
We step into a new week on the heels of a dynamic Scorpio New Moon, which is ushering us into a November filled with new opportunities and new awareness. In fact, today’s opposition between the Sun and Uranus is a call to get out of our comfort zone.
Happy Scorpio New Moon! This is the time in the lunar calendar when we step into Scorpio’s emotional unknown. It’s the season where we face finiteness of life and embrace its cycles of death, rebirth, and transformation.
