Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
A Leo Moon takes us into the weekend and gets us ready for Sunday’s Leo Full Moon! It’s a weekend to shine, share our talents, be creative, and rekindle passion as well as romance. WIth support from Mars in Sagittarius, we’re feeling courageous, too.
Venus, the planet of love and value, rounds out its time in magical Pisces. Here it’s reveled in a love that is both beautiful and healing. It’s found value in compassion. Tomorrow, when Venus arrives in Aries, we’ll see a shift in focus in our relationships.
Happy Taurus New Moon! This is the lunar month when we turn our attention to the ground beneath our feet. Taurus is the first earth sign and it teaches us all about the material world, from money and resources to food and anything we need physically to live.
We have a dynamic start to the week as the Sun meets up with Uranus in Taurus, kicking off our Uranus in Taurus story. There’s a particular part of our life that needs a reinvention and, to do so, we’ll have to leave our comfort zone.
Should I stay or should I go? We may be asking ourselves that as Venus comes up to a date with Uranus. Do we powerfully break free or do we double down and commit? And, as a result, we may be feeling pulled in two directions in our relationships.
Venus moves into Aries and the planet of cooperation now has to find the courage to strike out on its own. If Venus is also what we value, then we’re attracted to passion, bravery, and action. Our relationships and experiences with others will heat up as well.
Mercury moves into Aries and Venus is not far behind. Our celestial flood is starting to dry out. Although there’s still an emphasis on feeling and compassion, a shot of Aries energy will inspire us to move forward and motivate us to make changes.
Hello, May! We welcome in a season that celebrates, through the sign of Taurus, fertility, pleasure, and the natural world. With Venus in fiery, passionate Aries, we’re going after what we want this month and not apologizing. Watch out for ruffled feathers.
We’re under the influence of a quick, restless Gemini Moon, just in time for Mercury’s rendezvous with Uranus in Aries. Gemini is all about communication and, with the energy of the moon pointing to Aries, our words may confront, our ideas may shock or illuminate.
Mars is in the final minutes of Aries, wrapping up a journey that began on January 28. Later today, Mars will move into Taurus. Whereas Aries is brash and impulsive, Taurus is slow, methodical, and motivated by the material. Mars in Aries hunts; in Taurus it gathers.
Cancer Moon day, a time in the lunar month when we’re urged to connect to the things that nourish. As the first water sign, Cancer is all about emotional basics. Am I safe? Am I loved? Are my roots strong? Who are my family? For this, Cancer can feel like an ache of hunger.
Tomorrow Venus, the planet of love, beauty, and money will turn retrograde in Aries, urging us to look more deeply at Venus in our lives. If retrogrades are a time of review, then we’ll be digging into relationship patterns this month and learning what true value is.
