Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
With the Moon in Taurus today, we can turn our attention to the beauty and glamor of Venus in Pisces. If Taurus is a space of earthly pleasure for the Moon, Venus in Pisces reminds us of more ethereal pleasures, that there is space for magic in the day-to-day.
Venus opposes Mars. Conversations may reveal and transform. There may be a push and pull over ideas and points of view. We may need to evolve how we think, too. As planets that also speak about relationship, there are tensions to navigate with a partner.
We’re two days before a powerful Taurus Full Moon, one that will be a spotlight for Uranus, also in Taurus. This week’s events and big ideas have their roots in 2018, 2019, the years that Uranus first arrived in Taurus, the start of a major shake up.
We’re winding down the lunar month as we start the week, a lunar month that has been filled with a fair bit of twists and turns. If July was a linchpin for the astrology of 2024, a month tying together two solar eclipses, what personal events have we been navigating?
Yesterday’s Taurus New Moon set us up for the coming four weeks, a stage for us to come back to our material lives and focus on creating more stability and security. But there’s also a mandate to make structural changes and reinvent.
Another Taurus Moon day, another day that activates the energies of Venus in Pisces and Jupiter in Taurus, a duo that makes for a magical combination. Continue to invest time in creature comforts. Make food and enjoy sensualities. Be open to the romance of life.
The Moon’s in Taurus, a shift in gears after the spark of energy and movement at the start of the week. Taurus likes to take it slow. It likes to enjoy the process. And with Venus in Pisces, we’re focused on earthly pleasures as well as spiritual nourishment.
A Taurus Moon carries the powerhouse combination of Mars and Pluto into another day. Our axis may be shifting, our world tilting in a new direction. Taurus is a sign that gets to the fundamentals of life — money and resource, stability and security.
A Taurus Moon picks up on Capricorn’s love of luxury and material goods. We’re focused on our physical lives. But with Venus picking up on the energies of Neptune, all that glitters is not gold. Look for a more meaningful relationship with the material plane.
With the Moon crossing from Taurus to Gemini, we get some wind in our sails today and life is a bit busy. With Mercury trine Jupiter, we’ve got big ideas, too. But we have to have more discernment with our choices; Mercury and Jupiter are retrograde.
Another Taurus Moon day, one that picks up on tomorrow’s electrifying square between Venus in Leo and Uranus in Taurus. Be open to flashes of awareness, a sign of new directions and perspectives. We may need to revisit something from the past.
We start the week off with a Moon in Taurus, one that brings Venus Retrograde into focus. It’s a time to evaluate what’s important, what’s going to create stability in our lives, but, more importantly, what’s going to bring our lives joy and pleasure.
