Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
We go into the weekend on the cusp of planetary shifts. Both Jupiter and Uranus change direction, which means that we may see an area or two of our lives switch gears. That said, Jupiter highlights themes of faith, meaning. Uranus upends the status quo.
Venus in Leo cozies up with Jupiter in Sagittarius. It’s a day to enjoy life’s simple pleasures, its luxuries, as well as its adventures. Venus and Jupiter can bring luck and opportunity. But we’re still feeling restless, a little agitated. Uranus turns retrograde August 11.
The Sun and Jupiter harmonize. It’s a day to be open to adventure, travel, and the call of something greater than ourselves. For that Jupiter touches on themes of faith, wisdom, and belief. Jupiter helps us to see the world so we can understand ourselves better.
The Moon moves into Scorpio and it’s all about intimacy and trust over the next couple of days. Scorpio is a sign that likes to get to the psychological heart of things, even if it means being uncomfortable. With Mars in Leo, we may be feeling a little touchy, too.
We start the week off with a Libra Moon, one that prioritizes relationships and connections. With the Libra Moon touching on recent eclipse degrees, pay attention to what’s going on today. as we navigate events that may feel fated or powerful in some way.
The Pisces Moon harmonizes with the Sun and Jupiter today. We’re feeling philosophical, expansive, and pondering life’s greater mysteries. This energy wants our hearts open, it wants connection and compassion. It’s cathartic, too. Be open to love as well as healing.
We begin the week with the Moon moving from airy, intellectual Aquarius to Pisces. We’re moving from the mind to the heart. With Pisces highlighted into tomorrow, it’s a good time to spend quiet time with loved ones or alone in retreat or reflection.
Happy Pisces New Moon! This is the time of the lunar calendar when we pull back from the world, look inward, and seek answers for life’s existential questions. Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac, one that bridges this life and the next.
The Pisces Sun gets a boost from Jupiter in Scorpio, inspiring opportunities for travel, exploration, and education. Together, the Sun and Jupiter are generous, benevolent, giving us a faith that things just might work out. Be open to help and support from others.
New moons are new beginnings. They open up a lunar month that will unfold according to the archetypes seeded in the new moon. And what’s Taurus about? Sweetness. Pleasure. Sensuality. Taurus takes it slow. It enjoys every flavor, smell, and bite.
Happy Monday! Two things to keep on your radar this week. One, we’re five days away from the Taurus New Moon. This means that we’re in the end of the lunar cycle, a time that tends to be quieter and reflective as we prepare for the next lunar month — […]
We talked a little bit yesterday about the trend bucking, eccentric energies of Venus + Uranus. Venus has been in Sagittarius over the past couple of weeks, infusing our experiences of beauty and value with Sagittarian themes of freedom, faith, and the exotic. Uranus is a spark of individuality? But […]
