Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
Mercury and Venus switch signs this week, arriving in Pisces and Aries respectively, which means that the astro weather is shifting. Plus, we have a Leo Full Moon on February 9 at 2:33 am EST, 20 degrees Leo.
Mercury arrives in Pisces as the Moon switches into Gemini. Normally the quick witted and even quicker thinking Gemini Moon plays off well with the Aquarius Sun. Yes, it’s a day for big creative ideas, but we also need to get in touch with our intuition.
Last day of Mercury in Pisces, a sign that it’s spent the last nine weeks in, which means that we’re wrapping up our Mercury Retrograde story. It’s a day to tie up loose ends and complete something that began on February 10.
A Virgo Moon kicks the week off, which naturally wants us to get organized, make a to-do list, and stay on schedule. Use the day to take care of practical matters, including tidying up. Mercury is still in Pisces, though. So we’re still feeling a little sluggish.
Another Capricorn Moon day, one that gets serious with us as it approaches Saturn, Pluto, and the South Node of the Moon. Where do we need to be the leader? The adult? There’s something we can’t avoid today. Make sure you do the right thing.
The Moon’s in Virgo today and it’s all about the practical details of life — staying organized, taking care of our responsibilities … even the responsibilities to our health. With Mercury in Pisces, make sure you’re tending to emotional health as well as physical.
We want to get the workweek started with today’s Leo Moon, but we may feel like we’re having a hard time getting things going. After all, it’s the last couple of days of Pisces Season and Mercury is still retrograde, when lends itself more to rest and review than action.
We go into the weekend with a Cancer Moon, one that is a reminder that is a reminder that we have to care for ourselves. And with the North Node in Cancer this year, it’s an imperative. How will you be kind to yourself today? How will you connect with others?
Another Gemini Moon day, one that picks up on tension between the Sun and Mercury to Jupiter. We may be overly aggrandizing, thinking big, acting big, and telling tall tales. While great for creativity and sharing knowledge, make sure you’re getting the truth.
Moon slips from Taurus to Gemini, from earth to air. It’s a day to be curious, talkative, and on the move. That said, Mercury’s retrograde in Pisces. As analytical and sometimes impulsive as Gemini can be, we have to be aware of our words and how they are affecting others.
The Moon moves into Pisces and we go deeper into the dark of the Moon. It’s a time to rest and reflect as we prepare for the next lunar month. The Pisces Moon also opens up our intuition. It makes our dreams more vivid. Take time to meditate.
We’re straddling two worlds as we start the week. Between the dark of the Moon and the final couple of days of the lunar month and Uranus’s imminent arrival in Taurus, we may feel like things are both ending and getting ready to begin.
