A major reality check is in store on April 21,
2017 as Venus in 27 degrees of Pisces squares Saturn in 27 degrees of
Sagittarius. This is the third
Venus/Saturn square of 2017, so maybe this third time will be the charm. The first square occurred on January 27, 2017
when both planets were direct; the second time was earlier this month on April
11, 2017 when both planets were retrograde.
At least Venus is finally direct this time. But the bottom line with Venus squaring
Saturn is that it tends to be very tough on relationships, values, finances and
self-esteem. Feelings of loneliness and
depression are par for the course with this aspect. And adding to the mix is the fact that Chiron
in Pisces also interacts with this aspect. On April 16, 2017 I replied to a
tweet by fellow astrologer Tisch Aitken:
Been feeling this energy already. https://t.co/fm3R8UbtOJ— Linda Simons (@danceofphoenix) April 16, 2017
Truly, the best possible outcome of this
Venus/Saturn square in which Saturn in Sagittarius also squares Chiron in
Pisces is to heal old wounds. I think
that this should be an interesting time for me personally as Venus and Chiron
in Pisces trines my Venus in Scorpio and Jupiter and Uranus in Cancer, giving
me the benefit of a grand water trine activating my chart. And Saturn in Sagittarius is trining my Pluto
in Leo. It feels good to have these two
heavy hitters working together instead of at cross purposes for a change.
Pluto stationed retrograde in 19 degrees of
Capricorn on April 20, 2017, inspiring me to tweet:
Pluto in ♑️ stations retrograde today for next 5 months. Prepare for some deep soul searching & transformation to occur. #astrology— Linda Simons (@danceofphoenix) April 20, 2017
I have no doubt that I have some major
transformation and healing coming up as Pluto’s station exactly sextiles my
Scorpio sun and forms a wide conjunction to my own Chiron in Capricorn.
The new moon in 6 degrees of Taurus occurs on
April 26, 2017. The new moon itself is
not making any major aspects, but it will reinforce the Pluto retrograde vibe
because it sheds a light on our darkest side so that we can achieve
transformation and release our guilt, fear and shame. And don’t forget that Taurus is the sign
associated with strong, powerful leaders, which may be featured prominently in
the news that day. I wouldn’t rule out
any stories of international conflicts with this new moon.
Uranus and retrograde Mercury in Aries are
forming a conjunction on the day of the new moon in Taurus. This aspect can bring some innovative
solutions, which is definitely positive and potentially productive energy that
resonates well with the theme of a new moon, which symbolizes new beginnings. Uranus and Mercury are also forming a
supportive trine to Saturn in Sagittarius, which lends a tone of stability to
any changes that we wish to implement.
Venus in Pisces is a major player in this new
moon in Taurus too. Venus is the ruler
of Taurus and it forms a conjunction to Chiron in Pisces. This aspect provides an incredible
opportunity for healing if we are willing to forgive the past and move beyond
victimization. Pisces is all about
compassion and unconditional love, but it does have a flip side of playing the
martyr and victim, which is definitely not productive in terms of spiritual
growth.
For the most part, I am looking forward to this
new moon in Taurus. It falls in my 7th
house and does form a challenging opposition to my natal Saturn in Scorpio, but
it also forms an exact trine to my north node in Capricorn. The opposition to my Saturn may raise some
awareness of my responsibilities in relationships that I have been neglecting,
but overall I think that the benefits of the trine to my north node will
outweigh the effects of Saturn. This is
a new moon that trines my north node, which should be a boon for progress on my
spiritual path.
If you are curious as to how these astrological
changes are impacting you or 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 2017. We
recently experienced the February eclipses, but the August eclipses promise to
be heavy hitters. You can learn more

A contribution in any amount is deeply appreciated as gratitude is
a daily part of my spiritual practice.
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. Especially with 2017 being a
Universal Year 1, this 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.
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.

I have recently joined the International Center for Reiki Training
Membership Association.

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 can learn more about my expanded practice,
including the hours and address at:
I have also launched an 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
and a Tarot special for my tarot clients. Please check it out at:
