The first eclipse of 2017 is here! A lunar eclipse in 22 degrees of Leo will
occur at 7:33 p.m. on February 10th on the east coast of the United
States. Leo is the sign of the lion and
it rules the heart. As we all know,there are two sides to every sign. The less evolved Leo rules from the ego and
operates from a place of domineering others, while the more evolved Leo rules
from the heart and is generous, confident, creative and concerned with the
welfare of others. How will this lunar eclipse in Leo manifest?
There are very some auspicious aspects for this
lunar eclipse. For starters, it features
a Grand Fire Trine involving the moon in 22 degrees of Leo, Saturn in 25
degrees of Sagittarius and Uranus in 21 degrees of Aries. A grand fire trine is inherently supportive
for creative energy but having Saturn in the mix makes it easier to manifest
those ideas. Saturn is involved in an
ongoing trine with Uranus in Aries for 2017, so this should be an easier year
to implement the changes we seek in a more grounded way. The only potential danger with all of this
glorious fire energy is a tendency to let our egos run rampant, so check your
egos at the door.
This lunar eclipse also activates the ongoing
Jupiter in Libra/Uranus in Aries opposition.
When Jupiter and Uranus are in opposition, there are bigger and better
possibilities out there and fast moving change prevails. Jupiter expands consciousness, fueling the
feelings of exhilaration and creativity.
It is not impeded by the fact that Jupiter stationed retrograde on
February 6th because Jupiter retrograde is very adept at integrating
inner wisdom.
We also have a Yod aspect (aka the Finger of
God or Finger of Fate) featuring Chiron in Pisces as the apex of the yod with
the Leo moon sextiling Jupiter in Libra.
Chiron in Pisces is inconjunct both the full moon in Leo and Jupiter in
Libra. Ask anyone with a yod aspect in
their chart and they will tell you that it can bring sudden changes and events
that seem to spring out of nowhere. But
Chiron in Pisces holds the promise of a spiritual lift and enormous potential
for healing.
A Mystic Rectangle also features prominently in
this lunar eclipse. This happens because
there are two sextiles and two trines involved. The Sun in Aquarius trines
Jupiter in Libra and the full moon in Leo trines Uranus in Aries. The sextiles include the full moon in Leo
sextiling Jupiter in Libra and the sun in Aquarius sextiling Uranus in
Aries. This configuration is incredibly
lucky for manifestation, so be sure to meditate around this lunar eclipse. All eclipses bring changes, but this one in
particular holds the promise of sudden changes!
The Sun in Aquarius at its highest
manifestation is all about humanitarianism, innovative solutions and social
awareness. The fact that Uranus, the
ruler of Aquarius, is such a heavy hitter in this lunar eclipse, only serves to
amplify the potential for this manifesting as a positive eclipse.
But I would be remiss if I did not mention the
potential for this eclipse running somewhat amok and wreaking a little
havoc. On February 8, 2017, we were
under the influence of a Grand Cardinal Cross involving the moon in
Cancer. On that day I tweeted:
Cancer moon is stirring the emotional pot today with squares to Uranus & Jupiter & opposition to Pluto. Cardinal energy upheavals.#astrology— Linda Simons (@danceofphoenix) February 8, 2017
Home & family issues could be major triggers today with #CardinalGrandCross involving ♋️moon, Pluto in ♑️, Jupiter in.♎️, & Uranus in♈️.— Linda Simons (@danceofphoenix) February 8, 2017
The Cancer moon opposed Pluto in Capricorn
while Jupiter in Libra opposed Uranus in Aries. Jupiter and Uranus were forming
a T-square with Pluto in Capricorn and that Cancer moon. All of this spelled tension on many levels
and we would be in a state of denial if we thought that this was not a major
influence in this lunar eclipse. Between
all of this cardinal energy and the preponderance of planets in fire signs
(Uranus in Aries, Saturn in Sagittarius, Mars and Venus in Aries), the lunar eclipse
in Leo is bound to be a very high energy drama filled time. But it can bring good changes.
The big question is where does this lunar
eclipse fall in your chart? It falls in
my 11th house conjunct my Pluto in Leo and squares my Sun and Venus
in Scorpio in the 2nd house.
All of this seems relevant to me as I am focusing on my goals of expanding
my dreams of increasing my healing practice.
If you are curious as to how this eclipse affects you, please consider
getting an astrological reading with me.
Recently I undertook an intensive life purpose
coaching training program and became certified as a Life Purpose Coach. It was an intense, eye-opening experience
that changed my life as it caused me to reflect on the story of my life. But I left it with feelings of hope and light
for the future that I want to share with others. To that end, I am now offering Life Purpose
Coaching to my menu of services. You can

As an astrologer, I have decided to include an
interpretation of the north node by sign and house placement as part of my
coaching program. After all, The New
Year, especially a Universal Year 1, is a marvelous time to navigate a new direction
in your life that will fulfill you and your soul’s purpose. If you are feeling
stuck and need some help in getting from Point A to Point B in your quest for
making positive changes in your life, please email me at lindasim54@gmail.com to schedule a complementary telephone consultation to discover if
you are a good fit for this program. I
look forward to hearing from you.
If you are seeking more spiritual insight into your life, please
consider getting an astrological reading. An astrological reading can provide
valuable insight and tools. If you are
not quite ready for a full blown natal interpretation or a solar return
forecast, I also offer a basic astrological reading that will offer insight
into your astrological DNA and the major themes in your life and delving into
any pressing issues, one question astrological readings and composite couple
readings that offer insight into the purpose of a relationship. And I offer shorter
transit readings for three and six months. If you purchase a three or six month
transit reading, I will .even take a peek at the eclipses of February 2017. They
are here! You can learn more about my menu of astrological services, including
the opportunity to provide a donation in the amount of your choice to

A contribution in any amount is deeply appreciated as gratitude is
a daily part of my spiritual practice.
The north node in Virgo has an underlying theme
of service to others. In that spirit of
pursuing my path as a healer, I am still channeling that Virgo north node
energy by offering my Reiki services. If
you are in the Boston area, please consider getting a Reiki treatment at Acupuncture
for Everyone in Copley Square to destress, revitalize and remove blockages to
healing. It’s a perfect way to start
your weekend off and can also be described as a spa for the soul to boot! Reiki is the most profound treatment for
stress relief because it concentrates on CALMING your body.

For my clients who can’t fit Friday into their schedule
for a treatment or have difficulty traveling, I have also recently begun doing
distance Reiki sessions for them. I have
a conversation with them 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 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. I also began seeing clients
on Sunday afternoons in Coolidge Corner, Brookline for Reiki treatments on
February 5, 2017. I actually signed the
paperwork on the office sublet on January 27th, the day of the new
moon in Aquarius, and when I opened for business on February 5th,
Venus was in Aries in my 6th house.
Talk about working that entrepreneurial spirit! You

I have also launched a new endeavor that will deliver my services
to you at an affordable cost in the form of package deals. I am offering four options: Silver, Gold, Platinum
