The month of June is definitely heating up astrologically
as we head to the official start of summer on June 21, 2019 with the Summer
Solstice. On June 14, 2019, Mars in 19
degrees of Cancer is opposing Saturn in 19 degrees of Capricorn. This is not a fun or particularly pleasant aspect
to deal with, folks. Mars is all about
assertion and movement, while Saturn is the planet that brings delays,
blockages of energy and disappointments.
When these two planets collide in such a challenging aspect, frustration
is the order of the day. It is literally
an uphill battle to get what you want and the effects of this aspect will be
felt for about a week. Mars is not
particularly strong in Cancer, so we may find that we assert ourselves and act
out angrily where we are feeling vulnerable.
Saturn is urging us to be patient and disciplined in order to achieve
our desires, which is not exactly what anyone wants to hear. But patience and self-discipline are
necessary to prepare for the long haul and stay the course. Mars will be exactly conjunct my midheaven,
so this should be interesting…
On Father’s Day, June, 16, 2019, we have the second of
three Jupiter Neptune squares this year.
This first one occurred on January 13, 2019 and the next one will occur
on September 16, 2019. Jupiter in
Sagittarius squaring Neptune in Pisces is a prevailing theme for 2019, as the
effects of this aspect will be felt until October 2019. This second square features Jupiter
retrograde in 18 degrees of Sagittarius and Neptune slowing down to station
retrograde on June 21, 2019. Jupiter and
Neptune are both considered to be very spiritual planets, and this aspect can
manifest as a test of faith and a fantasy alert. They are both in mutable signs and can create
an aura of optimism and idealism because they represent very expansive
energy. Jupiter really wants expansion
and growth, but when it squares Neptune it can lead to confusion, disillusionment,
over idealism, deception and judgement that is downright fuzzy. We also need to be mindful of the tendency to
procrastinate with this aspect. Neptune
has been on the receiving end of some pretty challenging aspects lately,
including a square from the Gemini sun on June 9, 2019, when I tweeted:
This Jupiter Neptune square is setting the stage for the following day, June 17, 2019, when we have a full moon in 25 degrees of Sagittarius. Full moons represent a culmination of efforts and reveal truths. With a full moon in Sagittarius, these truths could very well involve legal issues. And there is a theme of expansion, since the ruler of this full moon in Sagittarius is Jupiter. This full moon is likely to trigger some trust issues and a sensitivity to risk-taking. Sagittarius does love adventure. But make no bones about it, the Jupiter Neptune square of the previous day is also contributing to increased sensitivity on this full moon. Full moons are always emotional times, but with Neptune in the mix, the sensitivity could be off the charts.We have major themes of escapism, confusion, low energy and fogginess today with Gemini sun squaring Neptune in Pisces. It’s a good day to sleep in if you can. #astrology— Linda Simons (@danceofphoenix) June 9, 2019
Neptune does cut us some slack, however, on June 18, 2019,
when it receives a supportive sextile from Saturn in Capricorn. Saturn is the realist and a stabilizing influence
to Neptune in Pisces. It will provide us
with the opportunity to make our dreams a reality.
But Mars in Cancer is not through stirring the pot. On June 19, 2019, Mars in 22 degrees of
Cancer is opposing Pluto in 22 degrees of Capricorn. How can we forget that Saturn and Pluto are
traveling together in Capricorn for their big conjunction in January 2020? We can expect themes of focused will,
assertion and force to emerge when Mars opposes Pluto. But Mars is in a somewhat weakened state in
the sign of Cancer, so there is a chance that some of this dark energy may be
mitigated.
Mars will be in 20-24 degrees of Cancer from June 20, 2019
through June 23, 2019. In addition to
opposing Pluto in Capricorn, it will also be conjuncting Mercury in Cancer and
the north node in Cancer. If you have
any planets in 18-24 degrees of the cardinal signs of Aries, Cancer, Libra, and
Capricorn, you will feel stirred up to take some kind of action during this
period. Be mindful that our minds will
be quick and emotionally driven at this time, so temper yourself. It may be
wise to breathe and think first before saying something we might later regret.
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.
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 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:
