Well, we are
coming off the high of a very energizing new moon that occurred on February 4,
2019, inspiring me to tweet:
But there are more changes coming this week when both Mercury and Mars change signs. Mercury enters the sign of Pisces on February 10, 2019 and it will spend quite a while there because Mercury will be in its first retrograde period of 2019 starting on March 5, 2019 when it stations retrograde in 29 degrees of Pisces. It stations direct on March 28, 2019 in 16 degrees of Pisces and doesn’t leave the sign of Pisces until April 17, 2019.Today’s #NewMoon in Aquarius is especially favorable with its supportive sextile to Jupiter in Sagittarius. Feel free to create your own good fortune and luck. #astrology— Linda Simons (@danceofphoenix) February 4, 2019
Mercury in
Pisces for an extended stay will have a tendency to soften communications,
increase our sense of compassion and heighten our creativity. Our dreams could be especially vivid during
this transit as well because our intuitive powers will be stronger. It favors deep meditations, especially during
the retrograde phase. But we will need
to be mindful of the tendency to crave escapism. Too much partying can be counterproductive
but we may need to indulge in a little escapist entertainment. And those of us who are empaths may find ourselves
feeling overwhelmed and in need of a little grounding with our meditations.
Mars has been
in the sign of Aries since December 31, 2018 but it is getting ready to leave
its ruling sign on February 14, 2019.
But it will go out with the proverbial bang on February 13, 2019 when it
conjuncts Uranus in 29 degrees of Aries.
And let’s not forget that Uranus is preparing to leave Aries as well to
re-enter Taurus on March 6, 2019 for seven years. Ironically, that day is also a new moon in
Pisces.
How will a Mars
Uranus conjunction in Aries play out? This
is very erratic cardinal energy that will manifest as a strong urge to break
free of whatever limitations we are facing in our lives. We will literally be
coming to terms with some part of our identity that needs to change. Patience will be in short supply and there will
be a tendency to act impulsively. Acting
out is a given with these two powerhouse planets in the cardinal sign of
Aries. And the fact that this
conjunction occurs in 29 degrees indicates some sense of closure but it won’t happen
quietly in the sign of Aries, which is renowned for its aggressive nature.
But on
Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2019, Mars will enter the Venus ruled sign of
Taurus and it will stay there until March 31, 2019. Mars is not especially strong in Taurus, but
it will bring a romantic tone to Valentine’s Day. Mars in Taurus is fixed earth, which means
that love and finances will take on a more committed, slow moving approach.
Mars in Taurus has infinitely much more patience than Mars in Aries and is
marked by its ability to have the staying power, determination and tenacity to
work slowly to achieve long-lasting results. Okay, it will be stubborn, but it
won’t be flighty or fly off the handle.
When Mars is transiting Taurus, we will be able to act in a more
measured fashion and feel as though we are in it for the long haul. Mars in Taurus may actually help ground us
during the extended transit of Mercury in Pisces, which is mutable water. And that may be a very good thing for those of
us who are empaths.
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. You also might want to
consider purchasing a Composite Couples reading for Valentine’s Day.
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

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

astrological insights.
Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone!
