The month of May could provide us with more hope and stability
after the recent flurry of cardinal astrological energy that has been stirring
the pot. On April 29, 2019, Saturn
stationed retrograde in 20 degrees of the cardinal sign of Capricorn, inspiring
me to tweet:
Saturn stations retrograde in Capricorn tonight for 4 1/2 months indicating a time to review our career, life direction and consolidate our resources. Weed out what is unnecessary in our lives. #astrology— Linda Simons (@danceofphoenix) April 29, 201
On May 2, 2019, Mercury in Aries formed a challenging
square with Pluto in Capricorn, which could have easily triggered some bouts of
anger about issues of control. On that
day I tweeted:
Communications could still be edgy today with Mercury in Aries squaring Pluto in Capricorn. This might trigger some control issues in relationships that need to be resolved. #astrology— Linda Simons (@danceofphoenix) May 2, 2019
But the energy is about to shift to a more stable and
grounding vibe courtesy of a new moon in Taurus and Mercury entering
Taurus. On May 4, 2019 we have a new
moon in 14 degrees of Taurus. New moons
are always a good time to set new intentions, but with a new moon in the fixed
earth sign of Taurus, we have a real shot at setting intentions in a peaceful
and practical way. Since Taurus is ruled
by the planet Venus, we should be focusing on planting new seeds to create more
love and joy in our lives.
A new moon in Taurus is also prime time to create more healthy habits in our diet and exercise routines. If at all possible, we should try to get outside and enjoy nature during this new moon. I include the word possible because of all the rain we have been experiencing lately. A new moon in Taurus also encourages us to balance work and play. It is literally a time to slow down and enjoy life more.

It is literally a time to slow down and enjoy life more.
We also have some pretty sweet aspects on this new moon in
Taurus. The sun and moon in Taurus are
forming a wide supportive sextile to Neptune in 18 degrees of Pisces. This aspect favors spiritual, artistic and
creative endeavors. It encourages us to
follow our intuition and take a leap of faith.
Neptune’s influence on this new moon favors compassion, understanding
and the ability to surrender to deal with practical concerns. Mars in Gemini is also opposing Jupiter in
Sagittarius on this new moon, but this is one time where an opposition is not
such a bad thing due to the involvement of Jupiter. This aspect bestows strength, courage and sex
appeal. It increases our self-confidence
as we are more willing to take risks.
The only down side with this aspect is to be inclined towards
selfishness, greediness and overconfidence.
Jupiter does love to expand whatever it touches, so if you have any
planets around 23 degrees of the mutable signs of Pisces, Gemini, Virgo or
Sagittarius you will feel this aspect more acutely than others.
On May 6, 2019, Mercury enters Taurus until May 21,
2019. Say goodbye to the impatient
quality of Mercury in Aries and welcome to more stability in our lives. Communications take on a more stable and
focused vibe as we find ourselves able to think before acting out or uttering
hurtful words. Mercury in Taurus is a time when common sense prevails because
Taurus is a fixed earth sign and is connected to the material world. It is much easier to focus, slow down and get
grounded. We will find it easier to be
patient and create strong foundations for the future. We are not as likely to go off half-cocked,
but we do need to be mindful of the tendency to be stubborn and rigid with
Mercury in Taurus.
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 30 minutes which are available for purchase on the Services
Offered page of my site. These are extremely affordable at the cost of $35. I have been doing more work with tarot
readings, which I love, so I decided to create a new combination reading which
offers the option of a 30 minute astrology consultation with a one question
tarot reading for only $50. 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 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.
I am also available for tarot readings in person if you are
in the Boston area or by telephone if you are unable to travel to my home in
Newton, MA. I use the Celestial Tarot
Deck, which I love because it contains so many astrological symbols. A tarot reading is another great option for
obtaining insight and clarity.
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 at my home in Newton, MA on Wednesday and Thursday
afternoons and in the Coolidge Corner section of Brookline on Sunday
afternoons. Recently I have added online
booking for my Sunday clients on my site.

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:
