Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
The Moon’s in Virgo today, which means that it’s the perfect time to get organized and focus on the practicalities of life. Both the Taurus Sun and Virgo Moon are in earth signs and while Taurus loves to indulge, Virgo is more conscious of health and wellness.
Mercury meets up with Neptune in Pisces, their first meetup in the sign in over a century. It’s one of our first introductions into Neptune’s 14-year transit through Aries. It’s also a day to open our intuition, to find the courage to be compassionate.
Mercury returns to Aries, the sign it started its retrograde in last month. It’s a revisit of themes and decisions from March. Something on the back burner moves to the front. A dream becomes reality, an intuition becomes an action. Be open to new perspectives.
Mars returns to Leo and Mercury is back in Aries, a shift in gears for the final days of Aries Season as both planets return to the signs they started their retrograde. The Sun arrives in Taurus on April 19, a new season to enjoy the pleasure and beauty of Venus.
We’re coming off a Libra Full Moon as we start the week, an energy that may be illuminating a key part of our lives and asking us to set boundaries and reevaluate relationships. With the Moon in Scorpio, emotional intimacy, power, and trust are an added focus.
Welcome to the Virgo Full Moon, the time in the lunar calendar to put things in order, to create structure, and to bring greater health and wellness to our lives. This full moon is also a lunar eclipse, a surge of energy that could bring pivot points and notable events.
Mercury meets up with Venus in Aries, a meeting that inspires kind words and diplomatic solutions. With Venus Retrograde until April 12, decisions may require us to come up with better solutions or rework a choice from the past in order to move forward.
This week’s eclipse at 23 Virgo is one of the marquee events for 2025, putting the spotlight on creating order and structure. It’s also an eclipse that creates a need to be of service, to put things in order, to clean things up, to tend to our health and wellness.
Mercury in Aries gets support from Pluto today, a sextile that is an opportunity for conversations that reveal hidden information, or present a deeper message. Mercury and Pluto are known to be able to deftly navigate psychological themes and material.
Mercury makes moves as we start the week, leaving Pisces for Aries. If Pisces is the end of the zodiac, Aries is the beginning. The planet of communication, curiosity, and choice brings its energies to a sign that is about action and the renewal of life.
The Moon’s in Gemini, a sign that wants to move and explore as well as set in motion the new beginnings that we forged with the Aries New Moon. With Mercury in Aries, it’s a fast-paced day. Conversations are quick, perhaps a little heated, too.
Welcome to April! We’re just one week away from a total solar eclipse in Aries, one that will open a new chapter of time. Aries is the sign of renewal. It inspires us to move forward. Nevertheless, life is on the move, in spite of Mercury Retrograde.
