NEW MOON SOLAR ECLIPSE IN AQUARIUS HOROSCOPE BY KELLY FROM PATHWAYS 2 HEALING ASTROLOGY

Hello everyone, this is a big week and the solar eclipse on Tuesday the 17th is only the beginning. I feel before we really talk about this eclipse, I need to do a mini-astro education lesson. This is about the nodes of the moon, I’ve talked about them before, but they are really important so let’s go over them. The nodes aren’t actually a planet; they are a point in the sky between the moon and earth. Now the actual math is too complicated for me so I’m not going to go over that but just know that there is a scientific equation that is used so astrologers can track the nodes in order to understand them. There are two nodes, the north node and the south node. In western astrology the interpretation I use is that the north node is where we are striving to go, we have to consciously choose to go on the path of the north node where as the south node is more where our natural tendencies take us, we have an unconscious way of choosing the south node but when we look at the nodes through our birth charts we can learn about our life’s journey through this lens. The nodes are always in opposite signs, so wherever the north node is the south node is the opposite. The other thing to know about the nodes is that they always move backwards through the zodiac. I say all this because whenever we have an eclipse it is when one of the nodes is in the same sign as the Sun or the Moon, but not this time. Since the nodes are always moving backwards and the north node is currently in Pisces, this solar eclipse is happening with the Sun and Moon at 28 degrees of Aquarius. Meaning, that the north node is in 10 degrees of the new Moon so that makes it a solar eclipse. Later this year the north node will move into Aquarius, so I’m looking at this solar eclipse almost as a magic mirror to what the future could hold. With the north node still in Pisces and it being such a mystical sign it’s almost as if it’s giving us one final look at what we need to complete in the Pisces story so we can move on to the next chapter of Aquarius. New moons, like I always say, represent new beginnings and with Aquarius being such a future-oriented sign we have to blend what is happening now with what could happen later.

But that’s not all… on Friday, February 20th we have the exact conjunction of Saturn and Neptune at 0 degrees of Aries. You can’t overstate the significance of this moment in human history. Throughout the 2020’s we have been talking about a shift in the collective that will reshape the world. I think for many of us this decade does not feel like previous ones, there have been other astrological events that we have looked to as mile markers in this shift, and they have been profound but so far none of them have had the power that this one does. Aries is a sign of power, it represents the warrior, war itself, and it is the leader. I want to make a distinction though, it is not the king or queen, that is Leo. But to those fighting on behalf of the kingdom is who it represents, the spirit of the fighter. With Saturn and Neptune it is about dissolving one storyline in order to reconstruct another. I can’t say with certainty what if anything may happen on this day, but I would be shocked if looking back on this day in our lives and in history we do not associate some event with direct changes that take place. Aries is a fire sign, it wants us to take action and over the next several years there is going to be a desire to act first and think later, now that’s not always the best idea but it is going to be how we want to proceed. The truth is a lot of major world decisions are out of our hands, but that doesn’t mean we have no control of our own lives and we can’t be the leader of our own destiny. We are living through a very important time and we all have the ability to shape it in some way. So what I would encourage everyone to do is be the leader of your own story. This is very Neptune in Aries, Neptune is about the vision, the belief, it’s not in Pisces anymore where it wants to just dream, it now wants to act. With Saturn here, it wants to make some permanent changes, longevity is Saturn’s goal. So we will see stories change, we won’t be able to go back to how it was before, how can we make a new reality permanent is what this conjunction wants to see happen.

We are living in such complicated times but it is part of all our destiny’s to help shape it. So, yes there may be some intense events that take place, but there could also be some surprising heroes that emerge. When we redefine words like leader, warrior, hero we end up with new versions of who these people are. So my hope for this time is that of peace, safety and of a new version of power that is more beneficial for all. I hope you all find peace and a way to be the leader of your own life at this time.

NEW MOON IN CAPRICORN HOROSCOPE BY KELLY FROM PATHWAYS 2 HEALING ASTROLOGY

Hi everyone, as we start 2026 it feels like 2025 was a long time ago, and yet we are still just beginning. On January 18th we have the new moon in Capricorn, two weeks ago we had the full moon in its opposite sign Cancer. This started a chain of events that have been wild, unexpected and even unsettling but we were actually ending a cycle at that point, now we are at the new moon phase and we are beginning a cycle. This is Capricorn energy, it is about determination, it is about reaching your goals and achieving success, planting the seeds for the year that can work for your benefit. Capricorn can be an intense sign, but in a subtle way, because it has one goal in life – to leave a legacy so it is okay with taking it’s time and planning ahead, basically it’s good at playing the long game. Capricorn is about being remembered for how it enacted change. When it comes to earth signs, they all serve a purpose for showing us how special life on earth can be. With Ta**us, it’s about enjoying our senses and taking pleasure in the finer things in life. For Virgo, it wants to get the details right so we can turn our dreams into a reality that we want to live. Then there is Capricorn, a sign that is very disciplined because it believes life has meaning. We are here for a reason, and it is our job to figure out what that reason is and live out that purpose. This energy is amplified by the fact that Mars and Mercury are conjunct the Moon and Sun. This makes our determination to achieve our goals and how we communicate them more powerful.

So here’s what I want you to keep in mind, when historians look back on 2026, they are going to realize that this was the year when the seeds of change were planted. In your own lives this is when you will one day have a moment where you go “oh yeah, that is when it all changed.” There are many transits that will happen throughout the year that will propel us into the future, but this new Moon is a great time to set our intentions and make it clear where we want to go. In the collective, there is a lot happening that we cannot control, but we can control what we do and no matter who you are, what you do can influence the world around you. The Cancer Full Moon taught us to care, now the Capricorn new Moon will teach us how powerful we really are. I wish you all love at this new Moon, thank you for reading this, and as always, until we meet again, let the stars guide you on your journey.

FULL MOON IN CANCER HOROSCOPE BY KELLY FROM PATHWAYS 2 HEALING ASTROLOGY

Hello everyone, happy new year, it’s a special way to start the year with a full Moon in Cancer. Like with all full Moons we have the Sun in one sign opposite another, this time of year it is the Sun in Capricorn opposite the Moon in Cancer. This axis is one that is about parental energy. Cancer is traditionally associated with the Mother and nurturing whereas Capricorn is associated with the father. Regardless of gender, this is about the need to nurture and to be nurtured opposite our desire to reach our goals and pursue our ambitions. To Capricorn, life is best lived with purpose, and the pursuit of that purpose is a noble goal. When we talk about Cancer we often use the word nurture, but what I mean by that is to care, care for others by providing love and compassion to them. So essentially, we have the Sun and Moon having a disagreement about how to parent the earth. We have the Moon wanting to bring out a more caring and compassionate side, but the Sun wants us to be more productive and set our goals for the new year. One thing about oppositions that is important to keep in mind is that it’s not about one planet “winning” but about finding the middle ground and the balance between the two. There may be cases where one planet is trying to win, but when you have a full Moon you are working with the axis between two signs that are on different sides of the spectrum. So here we have the Capricorn / Cancer axis and we have to figure out how can I care for myself and others while still working on my goals? Basically, how can I satisfy both the mother and father?

Now this full Moon has really good energy with it because Mars and Venus are both in Capricorn with the Sun and Jupiter is in Cancer with the Moon. So both the Sun and Moon have support, Mars and Venus are representing maturity and responsibility when it comes to love and ambitions. But the Moon has luck on its side, it can bring in a really hopeful and inspiring feeling.

We are living in a time where compassion is needed, but understanding the bigger picture and working on something that gives us true meaning and purpose is important. We all have something we care about and expressing that is what this world is looking for. At the same time, changes are coming and we want to be in a situation where we are prepared to handle them. So, I hope you can take this full moon and really decide how you want 2026 to go and do it with love and care. I wish you all the best this year. And as always, until we meet again, let the stars guide you on your journey.

NEW MOON IN SAGITTARIUS HOROSCOPE BY KELLY FROM PATHWAYS 2 HEALING ASTROLOGY

Hello everyone, on Friday, December 19th at 8:43 pm east coast time we have our final new Moon for 2025 in Sagittarius. It’s hard to believe that we are at the end of the year, but this new Moon will help us to bridge 2025 into 2026. Sagittarius is the sign of the adventurer, it loves to go on an adventure and explore the world, ideas and philosophies in order to find something new in life. That’s why a new Moon in Sagittarius holds so much promise, because as long as you are learning and as long as you are exploring then life can never be boring. The worst thing for a Sagittarius is to be bored, it doesn’t matter what kind of problems they face, if they can turn it into an adventure, then it is all good.

This new Moon in particular I think can bring out these qualities of exploration and wonder because it will be the last new Moon in Sagittarius where it will square Neptune in Pisces in our lifetime. Now typically squares are a sign of tension but in this case, I think it is going to bring more excitement than frustration. That is because Sagittarius and Pisces are so hopeful that no matter what happens we can’t be brought down just because we learn something new even if it is inconvenient. It reminds me of the point in a movie where you know you’ve got something wrong and but then realize what it is and now you know how to solve the mystery. It brings excitement rather than irritation. Another example is if you are solving a puzzle but it’s not coming together and then you realize what piece is in the wrong spot, even if you must start over, you have figured it out. It’s actually a great feeling, even if more work is required. This will play out collectively and individually. In our individual lives many of us are celebrating the holidays, getting ready to start the new year and it can be a stressful time. Maybe you are worried about making sure things get done on time and this new Moon can help bring together those final pieces that will allow you to push forward and wrap up any loose ends. Collectively, it’s no secret that there is a lot happening in the world and that these last couple of weeks could bring major developments that set us on a new course. Whatever happens around the new Moon is not the end of the story but rather the beginning of a new chapter. So there definitely could be some breakthroughs on the world stage that lead us down a new path.

With any Sagittarius new Moon, we have a desire to seek adventure, it doesn’t matter where that adventure leads us as long as we end up somewhere new. What happens around this new Moon can help us to solve a puzzle that leads us into 2026. This year was a bridge from the old to the new and once we get into next year there will be major transits happening that bring major changes into our lives and into the world. With Sagittarius, and also with Pisces, hope and optimism are always there. So, I want to encourage you to embrace adventure, embrace new beginnings, that is what this new Moon wants and it will help you if you let developments unfold the way they are meant to. Thank you to all who read this, I hope you have a great new Moon in Sagittarius and a great end to the year. I know things can be chaotic around this time, but we have a lot of astrological events coming up that I personally can’t wait to find out what they mean. I do want to talk more about this so if you haven’t already subscribed to my Substack page - Pathways 2 Healing Astrology - then please take a moment to do so because it helps to bring Astrology to the mainstream. Happy Holidays to everyone no matter what you celebrate or believe I hope you have a great time of the year. And as always, until we meet again, let the stars guide you on your journey.

NEW MOON IN SCORPIO HOROSCOPE BY KELLY FROM PATHWAYS 2 HEALING ASTROLOGY

Hello everyone, it is that time of the year when we have the new moon in Scorpio, happening really early in the morning on November 20th on the east coast and really late at night on the 19th on the west coast. There is a lot to talk about with this new moon, I use the word intense when I talk about Scorpio because it is, but it is an emotional intensity. It wants to feel all the feelings very deeply. It doesn’t matter if they are good or bad, Scorpio wants to be in them. Two weeks ago we had the Ta**us full moon, it was balancing out our need for intensity with our need for security. Now two weeks later we don’t have that, the moon and the sun are together wanting the same thing. This in many ways can be an adrenaline rush, because for Scorpio the more you feel something the more it energizes you. Here’s the thing though, we are not just having a new moon we are having a Mercury cazimi. This is when the Sun and another planet come together in a conjunction, meaning the same sign at the same degree, and for that planet it is like starting a new cycle, a rebirth if you will. It is very rare to have a new moon and a cazimi within minutes of each other. It’s important to note too, that Mercury is currently retrograde.

Now let’s try and put this together… Mercury is the planet of information and communication, when it is in Scorpio I like to think of it as the detective of the zodiac. It likes a good mystery, and it is desperate to solve it. So with this cazimi we are getting brand new information, but since it’s retrograde, it’s probably an old story, or perhaps an old mystery. Something you have been wondering about but could never find the right clues or answers. With this new moon happening within minutes of this, it is starting a new cycle in an old chapter. But it is bringing information that is going to energize us so much that we end up getting that rush that we need to keep going. Now I do want to caution everyone, it doesn’t always mean its good news, it just means that whatever emotion we end up feeling we really embrace it, because that is what the sign of Scorpio is trying to bring out at this time.

Information is power, and feeling powerful is something that we may be experiencing at this time. I’m not great with superhero references, but it was either in Spiderman or Superman, that they said something like “with great power comes great responsibility,” you can let me know in the comments where that’s from, but the point is this is also a part of the lesson. Information can be great, but how you use it is another story. I think that’s what will end up tying this new moon and Mercury cazimi together. With that said I do hope you all have a great new moon in Scorpio, let me know if anything comes up for you around this time, I would love to hear your stories. And as always, until we meet again, let the stars guide you on your journey.

FULL MOON IN TA**US HOROSCOPE BY KELLY FROM PATHWAYS 2 HEALING ASTROLOGY

Hi everyone, on November 5th we are having the full Moon in Ta**us. When we have full Moons it is always a Sun – Moon opposition, this time with the Sun in Scorpio and the Moon in Ta**us. Ta**us is a sign that loves stability, security and having an abundance of resources. It is also a very sensual sign; it takes pleasure in its surroundings and indulging in the senses. Because of this, it likes to take its time, go slow and enjoy the ride as it goes along. Then we have Scorpio, this is a sign that likes to turn the dial up and wants to feel the intensity of a situation. It can be considered a dramatic sign, it’s not really interested in the superficial, it wants the real authentic experience no matter how challenging it may be. It’s great for doing deep psychological work and feeling transformed, but this is where the Sun is, not the Moon. The Moon represents our emotions, what our heart wants. The Sun on the other hand is about our soul and our journey to authenticity. So, this is where the opposition comes in, we have the Sun wanting a more intense and dramatic experience that leads to deep change whereas the Moon wants a more pleasurable and reliable experience that we can really enjoy. Full Moons are a great time to look at the spectrum that the signs are on, and I like to really define what brings them together but makes them so opposite. With the Ta**us – Scorpio axis it is about relationships, but it’s about the depths that the relationships can reach. It has to do with the more “taboo” parts of a relationship, it’s about intimacy and how we define the more private and intimate moments in a relationship. Often it’s about our romantic relationships but it can also be those who we connect with on a deeper psychological level. The Moon is looking for places and people that we can feel safe with in order to feel vulnerable and beautiful around. However, the Sun wants something much more intense and meaningful. Scorpio season in general, but especially when there is a full Moon, can bring out our desires. Whether we acknowledge them or how we acknowledge them is up to us, individually this could bring up frustration or force us to look at what is real and what is not in our lives and based on our own experiences we may desire change. So keep in mind that this is part of the process of finding our way to a richer and fuller life, what we discover we want now can help us bring it into reality in the future.

There is really no way of getting around it, this is a full Moon about desires, intimacy and in some cases s*x. However it plays out for us as individuals, it wants us to own who we are and look at what we want, even if that makes us feel uncomfortable. Keep in mind this is a pre-curser to the new Moon in Scorpio happening on November 19th. That’s when the desires we discover now really start to demand our attention, but we will talk about that then, for now try and find a balance between pleasure and desire. Thank you so much for reading this, I always appreciate those who take the time to read to the end and if you don’t mind liking, subscribing and sharing that always helps to get astrological content like this out there. I hope this full Moon brings you insights that are helpful and maybe even a little fun. And as always, until we meet again, let the stars guide you on your journey.

NEPTUNE RE-ENTERS PISCES: WAS IT ALL JUST A DREAM OR A DELUSION?

Hello everyone, this is Kelly from Pathways 2 Healing. Normally I would do a new moon horoscope but there is something more important happening on Wednesday, October 22nd so I am going to focus on that but I will tie it into the new moon on the 21st in just a moment because these two events do go together. However, today Neptune is retrograding from Aries back into Pisces. To understand this, let’s go back, and I mean really go back. Thousands of years ago the ancients looked at the sky and thought that our solar system ended at Saturn, thousands of years later the modern planets were discovered – which are Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. All these planets needed rulers, Pisces was given to be the ruler of Neptune. Fast forward to 2011 Neptune entered its home sign of Pisces, and it had been there until March 30th when it moved into Aries and we got a preview of what Neptune in Aries might look like. Now on October 22nd it’s going back into Pisces for just a few months before it leaves this sign for about 150 years. So, you could say it has some unfinished business. Neptune is a planet that has to do with our dreams, the ones we have when we are asleep and the ones we have when we are awake. It is what we fantasize about. But there is a downside to this, it makes it hard for us to connect with reality and because of that we can become delusional. Sometimes the illusion of what could be is more attractive than what it is. So, since 2011 there might have been an area of your life where you had a dream of something, but it didn’t quite come together as you had hoped. There might have been some disappointment, or even a sense of “how could this be real?” Another way this might have worked out is, depending on how much Pisces energy you have in your chart, you might have questioned a lot about what the “real” truth is. It could have been a confusing time for many because it wasn’t about getting answers at this time, it was about how your dreams influence your perceptions. So over the past few months, we have gotten a look at what Neptune in Aries will be like and we may have gained some clarity. But now we are going to go back into that dream space and hopefully come out of it with a new perspective. With Pisces you have to have the dream before you can do anything, with Aries you can’t do anything without taking action and this is a time where we can really have that last look at what we have fantasized about for so long so when we finally get to Neptune in Aries for real and it’s not just a preview, we will know where we want to take action. Now that’s one way to look at it, the other is we once again become delusional, and this feeling of confusion and fog comes back and it feels familiar but it is as if something doesn’t feel right but we can’t quite put our finger on it. This is where we may feel as though we are getting stuck, that we can’t move forward and that any progress we have made over the last few months is starting to fade away. Hold on though, this is not going to last long because it will go back into Aries on January 26, 2026 and it will stay there until 2038. So this is an important time, important lessons, important things to finish up.

Now I did mention the new moon on the 21st being connected to this. Because new moons bring about new beginnings and then the very next day we are kind of revisiting an old story, we may get a new perspective on something that has been with us for about 14 years. This could be regarding relationships, work, family and home life, finances – you name it, it could be anything where it feels as though the fog is being lifted. That’s not to say we get complete answers yet, that really is coming in 2026, but we must be conscious about what is real and what is not. This new moon was in Libra, Libra is a sign that has to do with beauty, love and pleasure but it also has the important job of diplomat. You need to go through the process in order to have a fair outcome. This is why Libra also rules over the courts and judgements, the system is how Libra comes to its negotiations. Even though Libra likes to be fair, in the end it has to make a choice, and in order for something to be determined as beautiful it must be judged. This is where we see the side of Libra that can act in higher realms and go to both sides and come out with a deal. You can go into a negotiation looking beautiful, but if you don’t know how to close the deal you will never come out happy, Libra always wants to be happy. So what does this have to do with Neptune? Well, we have this new moon and then we get delusional. But the new moon can support us to make sure we don’t lose sight as to what our goal is so we can finally end up feeling like we have accomplished something and go into Neptune in Aries feeling like we made progress. Looking ahead we may see this around the time of the full moon in Aries in about 6 months. So, pay attention to what happens in your life now so you can compare it at the full moon.

This really is a significant time in our lives and we all have something to work on, some story that needs an ending because it’s time for the next chapter. One thing Neptune rules is the seas, and the metaphor I think of is the ship leaving the port, are you the person standing on the dock sad about it or are you the person on the boat celebrating? Either way, now is your chance to change the outcome. If you don’t want to be sad, get on the boat, if you realize you might be celebrating too hard, put the champagne down and take a moment to reflect on where you are and where you are going. It’s not too late, this story is not done being written so go find your happy ending. Well thank you for reading this, I know it’s long and I apologize to anyone who was looking for it yesterday, but I do think life works out the way it is supposed to and I really wanted to get this right. If you enjoy this content please like, subscribe and consider becoming a member of my Substack page. I have lots of things planned for the future over there so don’t miss out. I hope this Neptune transit clears up any confusion you had over the past few years, remember we are not done, we still have a whole Neptune in Aries transit to get through together. With that said, as always, until we meet again, let the stars guide you on your journey.

FULL MOON IN ARIES HOROSCOPE BY KELLY FROM PATHWAYS 2 HEALING ASTROLOGY

Hello everyone, today, October 6th we are having the full moon in Aries of 2025. It’s happening at 11:48 pm on the east coast. As with all full moons it is an opposition, this time with the Sun in Libra and the moon in Aries. This represents the classic Venus vs Mars in that Libra rules Venus and Aries rules Mars. So a theme that could come up at this time is love verses passion, which begs the question – are passion and love the same thing? Depending on our charts, some of us might say “yes, of course they are” while others would respond “no, they are totally different.” This is the time to explore this question.

There is another area to explore with this full moon that not everyone realizes is a part of the Aries / Libra spectrum. That is the question of what makes a good leader, and how do we define leadership. Both these signs represent different types of leaders. We are used to thinking of Aries as the natural leader, the hero that will run into a burning building to save you. On the other hand there is Libra, and Libras are the ones doing the behind the scenes work negotiating with other leaders and using diplomatic skills to win the war. You need both types of leaders in order to find the balance that can bring about harmony and peace, whether it be on the world stage or in your own life. Which means that the other question to ask yourself at this time is “what type of leader am I?” And “what leadership skills do I value in others?” Remember there is no wrong answer, it’s just exploring and figuring out what is right for us. The thing about oppositions in astrology is it allows us to see differences in a realistic way so we understand how having both sides can be useful. Full moons are the perfect time to really dive deep into these questions.

As we move forward I think this is going to end up being an important full moon. The lessons we learn now can help us going forward in understanding how to bring that heroic, passionate leader along with the skilled negotiator to hopefully bring ourselves and the world to a more loving place. I hope whatever balance you need to find between these two concepts is something that can be achieved now. We all want to live in a world of peace, but there is a process to getting there and we have to know what part to play in it. Thank you so much for reading this, if you like this article, please like, share and subscribe because helping to spread the word about astrology and how it can be used is something I believe is important now. So happy full moon in Aries, and as always, until we meet again, let the stars guide you on your journey.
