December 3,
2017 will be one astrologically intense day, mark my words. We will literally be undergoing a double
whammy with Mercury stationing retrograde in 29 degrees of Sagittarius at 2:34
a.m. and a full moon in 11 degrees of Gemini opposing the sun at 10:47 a.m. Full moons are always a time of heightened
emotions, but this is technically a super full moon because the moon is very
close to the earth. It will have a
strong effect, some of us may face closure and there could be even more
scandalous revelations.
Gemini is one
of the signs ruled by Mercury (Virgo is the other sign) and Gemini is all about
communication and logic. And Mercury
stationing retrograde on the same day of a full moon is extremely problematic
and complicated. This full moon will be
forming a T-square to Neptune in 11 degrees of Pisces because both the sun in
Sagittarius and moon in Gemini square it, which can have a tendency to dissolve
that Gemini logic. It can, however, be a
highly creative and spiritual time.
Another important aspect that occurs on this full moon is that Mercury stationing retrograde will be conjunct Saturn in Sagittarius. This aspect also occurred on November 28th, inspiring me to tweet:

Communications could be more somber today as Mercury & Saturn conjunct in ♐️. Anxiety levels on the rise with 1st of 3rd occurrence of this aspect due to upcoming #MercuryRetrograde. #astrology— Linda Simons (@danceofphoenix) November 28, 2017
And this aspect
occurs again on December 6, 2017. This
is a big deal because Mercury stationed retrograde in 29 degrees, which is
considered the critical degree... What happens when Mercury conjuncts
Saturn? Serious news comes out and with
a full moon in Gemini, this could play out as some rather revealing emails
being exposed. But the plus side of
Mercury in Sagittarius is that it does seek out higher consciousness and the
meaning of wisdom.
Here is a
litany of the themes that could manifest with this full moon due to its
T-square to Neptune in Pisces: deception, scandals, thefts, difficult to
diagnose illnesses and experiences that seem to defy reality. The sun in Sagittarius squaring Neptune in
Pisces increases the risk of confusion, deception and disappointment. Depression is also possible, as is the
tendency to engage in substance abuse.
The moon in Gemini squaring Neptune in Pisces cautions us to beware of
making important decisions and not be taken in by con artists. The bottom line is to not fall in the trap of
being gullible during this full moon.
Now that I have
everyone alarmed regarding this full moon, I also want to alert you to the saving
grace of this full moon which is quite literally a silver lining. There is an amazingly wonderful Jupiter in
Scorpio/Neptune in Scorpio trine that is exact on the full moon and pretty much
in effect through August 2018. Jupiter
in Scorpio will expand the divine spirituality of Neptune in Pisces. This
lovely, flowing aspect will allow us to shift our consciousness and create a
new reality. It is marvelous healing
energy and a perfect time for experiencing new healing modalities, especially
energy healing.
I don’t want to
minimize the potential for this particular Mercury retrograde to wreak
havoc. Mercury in Sagittarius is not
especially detail oriented, so it is highly likely that there will be many
communication and transportation snafus during this holiday season. Mercury will station direct on December 22,
2017 in 13 degrees of Sagittarius, but I wouldn’t want to be traveling during
the holidays. Mercury retrograde before
the holidays increases the potential for gifts ordered online not reaching
their destination before Christmas.
Remember the key words associated with Mercury retrograde: research,
review and revise. Try not to sign any
contracts, accept a new job or launch any new endeavors if you can help it.
Consider where this Mercury retrograde is happening in your chart. It starts in my 3rd house and it
stations direct in my 2nd house in 13 degrees of Sagittarius. First I get the full communication issues
experience during Mercury retrograde (talk about another double whammy) and
then financial ones.
As for the full
moon in 11 degrees of Gemini, it falls in my 8th house and conjuncts
my natal moon. The theme of finances
continues for me. I’m sure I will be in
highly emotional state that day but at least it will be beneficial for my Reiki
work!
We have another
bit of astrological good tidings coming up.
On December 5, 2017, Chiron stations direct in 24 degrees of
Pisces. Chiron has been retrograde since
July 1, 2017. Chiron is frequently referred
to as the Wounded Healer and I suspect that many of us have spent the last five
months getting deeper in touch with our wounds.
Now that Chiron is moving in a direct motion (it will be actually be
entering the sign of Aries briefly in April 2018) we are in a better place to accept
our wounds and learn from them so that they can truly teach us as we move
forward and heal.
If you are
curious as to how Mercury retrograde and the season of Sagittarius will be
affecting you, please consider getting an astrological reading. A transit reading might be just what you need
right now to make the most of Jupiter in Scorpio. Jupiter transits are all about taking
advantage of opportunities and if you snooze you lose with Jupiter. You have to be aware and strike while the
iron is hot. The Services Offered page of my site describes the menu of
services that I offer. There is something for everyone
.
My site also
offers 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.
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 read more about it at:
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.
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.

more information on my Reiki services, please see this page on my site:
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 am also offering Reiki treatments in the Coolidge
Corner section of Brookline on Sunday afternoons.
But
the big news is that I have created and launched a new website devoted exclusively
to my Reiki practice. Please feel free to check it out at:
I
was also featured in the July 3rd edition of Boston Voyager, an online
publication that runs a section called Inspiring Stories about local
entrepreneurs on its home page. The
Scorpio moon was trining the Cancer sun and Neptune in Pisces on that day, so
my story certainly debuted under fitting aspects. Please feel free to check it out:
As
the holiday season approaches, you might want to consider purchasing a package
deal as a special gift for your loved ones. I am offering four options: Silver,
Gold, Platinum and a Tarot special for my tarot clients. Please check it out
