We are getting somewhat of an astrological breather this week after
the intense full moon in 0 degrees of Virgo on February 19, 2019 when I
tweeted:
The moon enters Virgo today for a Super Full Moon in 0 degrees of Virgo. Look for themes of natural healing, practical solutions to problems and a sense of closure and completion. #astrology— Linda Simons (@danceofphoenix) February 19, 2019
The harshest aspect we are facing this week is a conjunction
between Venus and Pluto in 22 degrees of Capricorn on February 22, 2019. Sometimes conjunctions between planets can be
easy and gentle aspects (such as between the Sun and Venus) but that is not the
case with Venus and Pluto. Pluto is a
heavy hitter and its transformative nature is akin to undergoing labor
pains. With Venus conjunct Pluto in
Capricorn, there are bound to be some power struggles in love and money rearing
their ugly heads over these issues. The very
fact that they are conjunct in the sign of Capricorn reinforces the themes of
control and power. We will really need
to be mindful of the tendency to control others and behave in ways that reflect
feelings of jealousy, anger and obsession.
I have a natal Venus Pluto square and I am quite familiar with these
themes in my life.
But the silver lining of this aspect is the fact that Venus
conjunct Pluto can help us work through old karmic wounds if we use it
constructively to address power imbalances in relationships and get deeper in
touch with our own personal sense of self-value and power. I know that this aspect will affect me in a
very profound way as it is forming a conjunction to my natal Chiron in the 4th
house and my progressed sun in Capricorn which is conjunct my natal Chiron
now. And I don’t think that anyone can
ignore the difference that Chiron entering Aries (on February 18th
when the sun entered Pisces) is having on the world. It truly is the time to take personal
responsibility for our own healing.
On February 22, 2019 we also have Mercury in Pisces
squaring Jupiter in Sagittarius. While this
aspect can provide us with high hopes for the future it can also cloud our
judgment and make us prone to neglecting the details. This is a lot of mutable energy and one of
the down sides of Mercury in Pisces is a tendency to over idealize.
But on February 23, 2019 Mercury in Pisces is forming a
supportive sextile to Pluto in Capricorn which may help mitigate whatever
damage occurred on the previous day.
Mercury in Pisces sextiling Pluto in Capricorn will bestow a kinder,
gentler, more compassionate approach to communications that will help transform
our relationships. And it is also a boon
for working together to manifest our ideals.
Hold that thought…
If you are
curious as to how all of these planetary changes will be affecting you, please
consider getting an astrological reading. I am now offering short telephone astrology
consultations for 15 minutes or 30 minutes which are available for purchase on
the Services Offered page of my site. These are extremely affordable at the
cost of $25 or $35. In the spirit of
utilizing the energy of the January 5th solar eclipse in my 3rd
house, I am starting to use FaceTime for my readings and have installed the
Google Duo app on my phone for the benefit of my Android clients. So if you
want to see me in addition to talking to me, I am giving you the option to do
so. I even offer the option of tarot readings. There is something for everyone
and my menu of services can accommodate any budget.
Since I love to
talk astrology and believe in making it more available to everyone, I am now offering
pay by the minute astrology readings through Click 4Advisor. Check it out at:
This might be
the perfect way for you to get a taste of what astrology can do for you in
terms of providing insight into your life during these challenging time. Obviously the 15 and 30 minute readings are
the best deal, but you might be surprised by how much you learn in 10 minutes
or less from a brief glance at your chart. If I am not available you can always
request a callback and I will respond quickly.
My site also
offers the opportunity to provide a donation in the amount of your choice to
demonstrate your support for my blog and daily astrological insights on Twitter
at:
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
