A Super Full Moon in Taurus, Saturn Stations Direct in Pisces, Pluto Enters Aquarius and the Sun Moves into Sagittarius

 






Do we ever have a hectic week coming up astrologically!  It starts on November 15 with a Super Full Moon in 24 degrees of Taurus that is conjunct Uranus in 25 degrees of Taurus.  This alone has a wild card vibe.  You literally never know what Uranus is going to do but it is a given that there will be a strong desire for change and freedom. The Sun is in Scorpio and the Moon is in Taurus, so there could be major reveals about financial dealings. The Full Moon is also forming a supportive sextile to Neptune in 27 degrees of Pisces, which ramps up our sensitivity, intuition and psychic abilities.  This is a beneficial aspect for creativity and meditation.  

The Moon in Taurus will also be trining Pluto in 29 degrees of Capricorn.  This is yet another aspect that increases our emotional sensitivity and psychic perception.  We can literally be transformed by our intense emotional reactions.  If you have any planets in 22-26 degrees of the fixed signs of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius, I guarantee that you will be feeling the effects of this Full Moon.  I have my natal Venus in 24 degrees of Scorpio in my 2nd house and my Pluto in 26 degrees of Leo in my 11th house, so I know that it will be intense for me.

Saturn also stations direct in 12 degrees of Pisces on November 15.  It has been retrograde since June 29, 2024 when it stationed retrograde in 19 degrees of Pisces.  It's finally time for a reality check, especially if you have planets between 10-15 degrees of the mutable signs of Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces.  Whenever a planet stations, either retrograde or direct, its influence is much stronger.  Saturn stationing direct in Pisces can call upon us to move past the victim/savior roles in our lives and set some clear boundaries.  And it can help remove whatever obstacles we have been dealing with since it stationed retrograde.  I have my natal Moon in 14 degrees of Gemini, so once again I am in the fray...

On November 16, the Sun in Scorpio is opposing Uranus in Taurus.  The urge for freedom and change continues, but it can also generate some anxiety about the sudden upheavals that have no doubt been occurring. It will definitely be another unsettling day.

Pluto enters Aquarius until March 2043 on November 19.  There is no more backtracking into Capricorn like last year; Pluto won't return to Capricorn for about 250 years.   I know that a lot of people have been looking forward to Pluto being in Aquarius and giving power to the people, but I was really struck by what astrologer Armand Diaz had to say about how ugly it can be when Pluto enters a new sign. Let's face it, Pluto was in Aquarius during the French Revolution and that was not a pretty sight.  It was downright violent in its quest for freedom. Pluto in Aquarius will bring transformation in the collective through humanitarian movements and technology, but there can definitely be an underbelly to it.  I wouldn't be surprised if there was some violence as people seek more freedom. We need to be prepared for some growing pains. Artificial Intelligence can inflict damage in addition to helping us.  I have a Cardinal T-square in my chart in the late degrees (26-29), so while I am breathing a sigh of relief that they will no longer be getting hit, I am fully aware that Pluto in Aquarius starts off by squaring my Mercury in 0 degrees of Scorpio before it squares the rest of my Scorpio planets: Pallas, Saturn, Black Moon Lilith, Venus and Ceres.   And midway through its transit of Aquarius, Pluto will conjunct my Mars in my 4th house. Will I survive it? Or will transiting Pluto opposing my natal Pluto in Leo bring even more drama than I can handle?  Fortunately Pluto works slowly so I have time to figure it out and adapt.

On a much lighter note, the Sun moves into Sagittarius on November 21. We will be transitioning from the intensity of fixed water (Scorpio) to mutable fire. There will be a shift from intimate connections to a deepening awareness of the big picture.  It is time to nurture our faith, hope and vision for the future. Feel free to embrace learning and travel as we expand our consciousness.  Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, so enjoy the refreshing change.

The coronavirus outbreak caused me to increase the number of distant Reiki sessions I do because people were concerned about the spread of the infection. I have decided to suspend my in-person Reiki sessions until further notice, so all of my Reiki sessions will be distant Reiki sessions for the foreseeable future. But a distant Reiki session is the perfect opportunity to safely build up your immune system and if you have contracted coronavirus, you can be treated safely from the comfort of your home. My procedure is to have a conversation with a client about what they hope to achieve from a session, we set up a time for the session to take place when they will be in a state to receive healing energy and I follow up with a telephone conversation to discuss their experience and my perception of their blockages. I do miss seeing my clients, so I am now offering Zoom consultations/intakes before the session so that we can see each other. I have also incorporated a new technique with my distance Reiki treatments since I don’t always have a photo of my client.  I use a teddy bear so that I can scan and focus the healing energy where it is needed. If this appeals to you, please feel free to contact me by email at lindasim54@gmail.com or call me at 617-304-2205. The cost for distance Reiki sessions is based on a sliding scale of $30 -$50. For your convenience, I accept Venmo and Zelle for payment. Zelle payments can be sent using my telephone number 617-304-2205. I have also written an article about distance Reiki, which is available at:

Venus Finishes up in Sagittarius with a Square to Neptune in Pisces, Enters Capricorn and Mercury Squares Saturn in Pisces




 

Confusion, fear, anger, and anxiety are quite prevalent in the United States now as a result of the recent Presidential election.  The planets are echoing these sentiments this week.  On November 9, Venus in Sagittarius will be exactly squaring Neptune in 27 degrees of Pisces.  Venus squaring Neptune is associated with confusion and lack of self-discipline.  It can bring insecurity, poor self-image and relationship difficulties. We are prone to overidealizing a partner, being gullible and can be taken advantage of quite easily.  It goes without saying that with Neptune involved, we need to be especially mindful with alcohol and drugs.

Venus moves into Capricorn on November 11 and stays there until December 7, 2024.  Venus in the cardinal earth sign of Capricorn is more about stability and commitment than adventure and a more free-wheeling approach to love or finances.  Mutual respect in relationships becomes more important.  If we are single, we are seeking partners who are reliable, responsible and ambitious.  We definitely have a more sober approach to love and finances.  Venus in Capricorn is truly a time to get serious about finances.

Venus in Capricorn will be inconjunct Mars in 3 degrees of Leo on November 14, 2024.  This is a very uncomfortable aspect because it's like the two planets involved are in different universes with no common ground.  Adjustments need to be made.  Venus inconjunct Mars can bring frustration and tension.  There very well could be a strong desire for intimacy and connection.  If you find that your sexual energy is blocked on this day, try to find a creative outlet to deal with this aspect on a more constructive level.  That very well could be your best adjustment.  I am just saying that this could be a difficult day for relationships...

Mercury in Sagittarius is slowing down in preparation for its upcoming retrograde that officially starts on November 25 in 22 degrees of Sagittarius.  But Mercury entered its retrograde shadow in 6 degrees of Sagittarius on November 7.  

Mercury in Sagittarius will be squaring Saturn in 12 degrees of Pisces on November 12.  This is my birthday and it is not exactly the aspect that I was hoping for. At least Saturn in Pisces is exactly squaring my natal Saturn in Scorpio, which is something positive.  Hopefully I will get some support for the structures in my life as I begin a new year and decade. Squares are inherently challenging aspects and when Mercury is square Saturn, it can make communication more difficult due to negative thinking and misunderstandings. Just be aware that we might have the tendency to see the worst-case scenario on this day.  Blame it on Saturn...It can create distance in relationships too.  Pay attention to details because we will be needing to do some hard mental work.  The Moon moves into Aries on this day and trines Mercury in Leo during the evening, which should have a restorative effect on opening up communication in relationships.  Perhaps all's well that ends well can be the theme...

And I can't help but agree with astrologer Maria DeSimone's observation that Pluto's last stance in 29 degrees of Capricorn is wreaking havoc with anyone who has planets in the last degrees of the cardinal signs of Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn.  She literally said that they can be going through hell, and as someone who has a Jupiter-Uranus conjunction in Cancer and Neptune in Libra, I concur.  The thing to remember is that even if you have planets not at 29 degrees, but between 25-28 degrees of the cardinal signs, you can still be feeling the effects.  She pointed out that Kamala Harris had her Sun in 27 degrees of Libra and Moon in 27 degrees of Aries, so while it was technically a separating aspect, her loss could be attributed astrologically to Pluto squaring her Sun and Moon while Saturn in Pisces was transiting her 10th house.  Please don't blame any astrologers who predicted Kamala Harris would win the election. It won't do any good.   Pluto will be in Capricorn until November 19, so we have a couple more weeks of this intensity before it enters Aquarius for the next 20 years.

New Moon in Scorpio, Mercury Enters Sagittarius and Mars Enters Leo




 

The month of November is starting off with a bang in the form of a New Moon in 9 degrees of Scorpio.  This has strong themes of intensity, transformation and empowerment.  Astrologically speaking, it is quite well-aspected because the only major aspect that it makes is a very productive trine to Saturn in 12 degrees of Pisces.  We might find it easier to set some boundaries in relationships as a result of this New Moon.

But many of us could still be feeling the effects of the recent opposition between Mercury in Scorpio and Uranus in 26 degrees of Taurus that occurred on October 30.  Sudden disruptions could have happened in our lives that shook us to our core.  This opposition exactly squared my natal Pluto in Leo and aspected my Venus and Ceres in Scorpio.

Since I am a Scorpio, I just want to remind everyone that Scorpio is a sign of extremes.  Every zodiac sign has good and bad traits, but Scorpio can take both the good and bad to all new levels.  The shadow side of Scorpio is associated with revenge, jealousy, holding grudges and seeking control.  The higher level of Scorpio is represented by the mythical phoenix, which is regenerative and transformational.  Rebirth is its thing, but it must rise from its ashes of death to get there, and as I have often said, rebirth ain't pretty.  Finally, there is the eagle, which also symbolizes Scorpio's ability to rise above, be objective and release its need for control.  So we could experience quite a few of these emotions on this New Moon in Scorpio.  Personally, I will have this New Moon exactly conjunct my natal Pallas in 9 degrees of Scorpio in my 1st house, so I am hopeful that it will help me be more intuitive about whatever strategies that I need to implement.  The New Moon is also conjunct my natal Saturn in 12 degrees of Scorpio in my 1st house, so I could very well be establishing some boundaries in my relationships. So if you have any planets in 9 degrees of the fixed signs of Aquarius, Taurus, Leo or Scorpio, you will definitely feel the effects of this New Moon.  

On November 2, Mercury enters the mutable fire sign of Sagittarius for an extended stay due to the upcoming Mercury retrograde on November 25.  Mercury will station retrograde in 22 degrees of Sagittarius and will turn direct on December 15 in 6 degrees of Sagittarius.  Mercury will remain in Sagittarius until January 8, 2025.

When Mercury is in Sagittarius, we tend to see the big picture but can be less focused on the details.  Our thoughts tend to be more optimistic, expansive and sometimes exaggerated.  We can have philosophical curiosity and a touch of impulsiveness.  Decisions can be made quickly, based on faith and trust.  The best advice that I can give you for the Mercury in Sagittarius transit is to think before you act...

We have another active day on November 3.  Mars in Cancer opposes Pluto in 29 degrees of Capricorn.  This is not the friendliest of aspects.  It can be rife with conflict and intensity as  buried things come to the surface.  It also has the potential for violence.  The themes of power and passion will be with us until April 2025 because this aspect will be in effect even when Mars enters Leo and Pluto enters Aquarius on November 19.

Mars will enter Leo at 11:10 p.m. on November 3.  It will station retrograde in 6 degrees of Leo on December 6 and re-enter Cancer on January 6, 2025.  Mars will station direct in 17 degrees of Cancer on February 23, 2025 and go back into Leo on April 18, 2025.  Mars remains in Leo until June 17, 2025.  

Mars is infinitely happier in Leo than in Cancer because it is motivated by self-confidence, pride, ego and can be quite competitive. Mars in Cancer can be defensive and somewhat passive-aggressive. Mars in Leo is dramatically reactive and focused on leadership.  There is the potential for tempers to flare when Mars is in a fire sign, but it tends to blow over quickly.

The Sun in Scorpio will be trining Saturn in 12 degrees of Pisces on November 4, which will provide us with some stability, balance and structure in our lives.  It is ideal for setting goals and our self-respect will be strengthened, so I encourage you to make the most of this extremely positive energy.

And if you live in the United States, please don't forget to VOTE on November 5!

The Outer Planets of Saturn, Uranus and Neptune Are Calling the Shots as October Winds Down


 



The month of October is coming to a close after a very turbulent month.  Emotions are running high these days because we have the Sun and Mercury in Scorpio, Mars in Cancer in addition to Saturn and Neptune in Pisces. It's an abundance of planets in water signs. If you have been experiencing a big case of the feels and wanting to cry, blame the preponderance of planets in water that are forcing us to get in touch with our feelings.

On October 28, we have two major aspects in involving the outer planets of Neptune and Saturn in Pisces which will affect relationships.  Mars in Cancer will be trining Neptune in 27 degrees of Pisces at 8:31 a.m.  This can be an extremely romantic vibe because Mars will stimulate our sensuality, compassion and creativity.  Mars in Cancer will give us the spiritual courage we need to defend ourselves and our loved ones too.  If nothing else, it is a perfect time to become involved in humanitarian issues and causes.

Venus in Sagittarius is squaring Saturn in 13 degrees of Pisces at 9:35 a.m. on October 28 as well.  This aspect can add some stress to our love life through delays, distance or shyness.  It can also trigger feelings of loneliness or depression in addition to financial restrictions or limitations.  We just might find ourselves saddled with extra responsibilities in relationships that require us to work hard at maintaining them.  

Mercury in Scorpio will be opposing Uranus in 25 degrees of Taurus on October 30 at 6:15 p.m. This will manifest in a very hectic pace and scattered energy.  We will be easily distracted and find it difficult to concentrate or be patient and self-disciplined.  Unexpected occurrences can rock our world but also deliver fresh insights that we didn't see coming.  There is also the potential for electronic breakdowns with this very erratic vibe.  

Mercury in Scorpio is better behaved on October 31 when it trines Neptune in 27 degrees of Pisces at 8:33 p.m.  This is very creative, spiritual and sensitive energy.  Fantasy can rule, which is kind of fitting for Halloween.  Our psychic abilities will be enhanced and our intuition will be stronger than usual.  Pay attention to your instincts on this day because they will be on the mark.  This is a very positive aspect to end the month of October.  

The month of November will start with a New Moon in Scorpio, Mercury entering Sagittarius and Mars in Cancer opposing Pluto in Capricorn, and Mars entering Leo all during the first three days, but more on that in next week's post.

The coronavirus outbreak caused me to increase the number of distant Reiki sessions I do because people were concerned about the spread of the infection. I have decided to suspend my in-person Reiki sessions until further notice, so all of my Reiki sessions will be distant Reiki sessions for the foreseeable future. But a distant Reiki session is the perfect opportunity to safely build up your immune system and if you have contracted coronavirus, you can be treated safely from the comfort of your home. My procedure is to have a conversation with a client about what they hope to achieve from a session, we set up a time for the session to take place when they will be in a state to receive healing energy and I follow up with a telephone conversation to discuss their experience and my perception of their blockages. I do miss seeing my clients, so I am now offering Zoom consultations/intakes before the session so that we can see each other. I have also incorporated a new technique with my distance Reiki treatments since I don’t always have a photo of my client.  I use a teddy bear so that I can scan and focus the healing energy where it is needed. If this appeals to you, please feel free to contact me by email at lindasim54@gmail.com or call me at 617-304-2205. The cost for distance Reiki sessions is based on a sliding scale of $30 -$50. For your convenience, I accept Venmo and Zelle for payment. Zelle payments can be sent using my telephone number 617-304-2205. I have also written an article about distance Reiki, which is available at:

I urge everyone to engage in massive amounts of self-care and follow the protective measures of washing your hands frequently, avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth, wearing a face mask when necessary and staying home if you are sick. And get a vaccine. The newest vaccine is available and I encourage you to get it to protect yourself. I repeat, you do not want to get this virus! I speak from personal experience and consider myself very fortunate to have survived Coronavirus twice. Stay safe and healthy, everyone! 

Astrology is a powerful tool that helps you navigate challenging times and alerts you to opportunity periods. Get a reading with me and experience the healing process. #astrology

Uranus, Neptune and Pluto Take Some Hits Before the Sun Enters Scorpio


Well, we are all hopefully still standing after the powerhouse Super Full Moon in Aries on October 17.

On October 19, the Sun in Libra will be forming an inconjunct aspect to Uranus in 27 degrees of Taurus.  Inconjuncts are rather irritating aspects because the two planets involved are definitely not on the same page and there is always some type of adjustment required.  The Sun inconjunct Uranus brings a strong yearning for excitement and freedom, but we can feel the pressure to make changes.  The rub is that fear, uncertainty, and insecurity can hamper our decision making process. Don't resist the concept of change (that is futile) but try to focus on a single goal instead of making a multitude of massive changes all at once.  It's okay to start with small changes...

The Sun in Libra will also be inconjunct Neptune in 27 degrees of Pisces on October 20.  Creativity could suffer on this day in addition to confusion, insecurities and fantasies prevailing in relationships.  Our intuition is not aligned with our ego on this day.  And we will have a tendency to fall for illusions in order to avoid confrontation, which Libra for the most part does not like and tries to avoid. So be very careful on this day...

There is a big day happening astrologically on October 22.  The Sun in Libra's swan song is a square to Pluto in 29 degrees of Capricorn at 10:15 a.m.  This is the classic power struggle aspect that has a strong theme of control issues emerging.  Intense experiences will occur that trigger deep psychological fears of death or losing control.  Watch out for manipulation, compulsive behavior, obsessions and jealousy to rear their ugly heads.  The most constructive way to deal with this aspect is to sacrifice your need for control so that transformation (Pluto's theme) can occur. I have this aspect natally in my chart, so I am too familiar with it. This energy is amplified because it is occurring in the 29th or anaretic degree.

The Sun will take a deep dive into the fixed water sign of Scorpio at 6:15 p.m. on October 22.  When the Sun is in Scorpio, we have a strong desire to get to the bottom of things.  And we have the determination, passion, courage and perseverance to obtain the truth.  Intensity is the name of the game, but the shadow side of Scorpio is jealousy, resentment and vindictiveness.  Scorpio is a sign of extremes with an all-or-nothing vibe.  This is completely different energy from the previous Sun sign of Libra, which is geared towards compromise and people pleasing. Vive la difference!

On October 24, Mars in Cancer will be forming a supportive sextile to Uranus in 26 degrees of Taurus.  It's really nice to see Uranus getting a break after getting clobbered by the Sun a few days earlier.  Mars sextiling Uranus increases our desire for fun and excitement.  It can also attract people who are different and more stimulating.  Sextiles bring opportunities into our lives that we need to take advantage of or we will lose out.  Mars sextiling Cancer can bring someone new into our sphere, but it can signify the chance to break away from relationships that limit your freedom or self-expression.
