Save the date
of September 9, 2018 because we have two major astrological events occurring on
that day. At 5:25 a.m. Venus enters
Scorpio for an extended stay because it will be stationing retrograde on
October 5, 2018 in 10 degrees of Scorpio, sliding back into Libra on October
31, 2018 for a Halloween treat and re-entering Scorpio on December 2, 2018,
where it remain until January 17, 2019.
And at 2:01 p.m. on September 9, 2018, we have a new moon in 17 degrees
of Virgo.
The new moon in
Virgo features a very emphasis on earth energy.
In addition to the sun and moon in Virgo, we have Mars and Pluto in
Capricorn, Uranus in Taurus and Mercury in Virgo. Mercury entered Virgo on September 5, 2018,
inspiring me to tweet:
Everyone knows that a new moon is an ideal time to set new intentions. With a new moon in Virgo, the focus will undoubtedly be on setting new intentions for health, healing and trying to protect our planet earth. Chiron in 0 degrees of Aries squaring Saturn in 2 degrees of Capricorn has the potential to shift the focus to alternative forms of healing. A new moon in Virgo also facilitates releasing negative thinking.Mercury enters its home sign of Virgo tonight so communications get really analytical and detail oriented. But Mercury in Leo goes out with a bang this morning as it quincunxes Mars in Capricorn. Make adjustments or communications could get testy. #astrology— Linda Simons (@danceofphoenix) September 5, 2018
Pluto in 18
degrees of Capricorn is trining this new moon in 17 degrees of Virgo, which
adds to the sense of empowerment. Two
days before the new moon, we have a Grand Trine in Earth involving Mercury in 2
degrees of Virgo, Saturn in 2 degrees of Capricorn and Uranus in 2 degrees of
Taurus. This is perfect energy for
grounding, stabilizing and manifesting our goals. It sets the stage for the empowering theme of
this new moon in Virgo.
There are many
positive themes involved in this Virgo new moon. They include putting an end to
procrastination, attending to details, an ability to review and analyze,
problem solving and enhances organizational skills. Our self-discipline is at an all-time high
and we should be motivated to engage in self-care. The only downsides with a Virgo new moon are
tendencies towards perfectionism and to be critical and compulsive. Be mindful of these potential pitfalls and we
should have a very positive experience with the new moon.
In addition to
the heavy earth planet emphasis, we also have a focus on water planets with
Neptune in Pisces and Jupiter in Scorpio adding to the mix of this new
moon. Both the sun and moon in Virgo
will be opposing Neptune in Pisces, which could create a desire to escape life’s problems, but a more constructive use of this energy is to focus on creative or
spiritual endeavors. But the sun and
moon in Virgo are sextiling Jupiter in Scorpio, which can help us to ground the
benefits of the ongoing Jupiter Neptune trine.
Jupiter in Scorpio sets the stage for deep emotional responses, while
Neptune in Pisces helps us access a higher aspect of ourselves so that we can
transcend the drama and act from a place of light and compassion.
The extended
transit of Venus in Scorpio will force us to go beyond the surface in
relationships. It will be a time when we
crave meaningful and intense relationships.
Venus in Scorpio is definitely not a frivolous, lightweight sign, as I
can personally attest. I have a natal
Venus in Scorpio retrograde. I will be
covering the Venus retrograde transit in a later post, but I can give you a
heads up that Venus in Scorpio will trigger money concerns, power struggles and
issues of jealousy and obsession.
If you are
curious as to how all of the planetary changes, including this summer’s eclipses,
Pluto in Capricorn retrograde, Jupiter in Scorpio, Chiron in Aries and Uranus
in Taurus will be affecting you in 2018, 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. I even offer the option of tarot readings. 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.
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.
For 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 3, 2017 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:
I have also revised my package deals and I am now
offering two options for package deals: Silver and a Tarot special for my tarot
clients. Please check it out at:
