Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
It’s another day for debates and lively points of view as Mercury in Sagittarius faces off with Mars in Gemini. It’s both a motivation to learn and explore, but also be a bit argumentative. Remember, Mars is still retrograde. Think before you act; weigh your options first.
Mercury opposes Mars, an aspect that can make for dynamic connection, conversation, and decisions. But it can be also confrontational and argumentative, especially in a relationship. With the Sun in Libra, how can we find consensus? Harmony?
Mercury, as it rounds its way out of Libra, makes a square to Saturn. We have to chose our words wisely. We’re weighing serious options. Is it a yes or a no? Saturn can reveal a need for boundaries, discernment, or more maturity.
We say goodbye to Virgo Season as the Sun arrives in Libra on September 22, the sign that teaches us about partnership and connection. Plus, Mercury makes tense aspects to Pluto, Saturn, and Mars, creating dynamic if not confrontational situations.
The Sun reaches the last degree of Virgo. There’s an intensity in the air as Mercury, the ruling planet of Virgo, squares with Pluto. We need to get laser focused. We’re uncovering a mystery, especially with the Moon in Scorpio. We have to make serious choices.
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.
The Moon wraps up its stay in Pisces, highlighting connection and compassion for the day. This makes for a sensitive duo with the Cancer Moon, a sign that instinctively seeks out home and family. Spend time with loved ones with whom you have a deep connection.
We’re coming off of yesterday’s argumentative face off between Mercury and Mars. Tensions may still be a touch high today, especially now that the Moon is in Virgo. We may feel overly critical, nitpicky, restless, quick to find fault in the details.
Mercury and Mars clash today. We may feel a little restless or have a need to get something off our chest. Although this placement has a history of arguments and accidents. Mercury is still in Taurus. A lot of the potential conversation today may be around value.
