The month of August is starting to get very interesting
astrologically. Jupiter in Sagittarius
has been on the receiving end of some very beneficial trines lately. The first occurred on August 7, 2019 when the
Leo sun trined Jupiter in Sagittarius.
On that day I tweeted:
There is strong potential for good luck, prosperity and abundance today as the Leo sun trines Jupiter in Sagittarius. Don’t waste any opportunities that come your way. #astrology— Linda Simons (@danceofphoenix) August 7, 2019
The following day, August 8, 2019, Venus in Leo followed
the sun’s lead and trined Jupiter in Sagittarius, amplifying the good luck
vibes. It inspired me to tweet:
Relationships and finances get a boost today when Venus in Leo trines Jupiter in Sagittarius. Yesterday’s lucky vibe continues. #astrology— Linda Simons (@danceofphoenix) August 8, 2019
But mark August 11, 2019 on your calendars for a banner
day. Jupiter, which has been retrograde
since April 10, 2019, will station direct in 14 degrees of Sagittarius. Don’t forget that whenever a planet is stationary
its emphasis and power are magnified.
Jupiter stationing direct in its home sign of Sagittarius may shed some
light on new truths. In any case, many of us will feel freer to make the big
sweeping changes that we have been contemplating since last April. I sense that I will be feeling the effect of
Jupiter’s direct motion very strongly because it will be opposing my moon in
the 8th house. And I am
somewhat comfortable with Jupiter being in a stationary motion because I was
born with Jupiter being stationary direct; it stationed retrograde five days
after I was born.
But wait, there are two more major astrological events
occurring on August 11th.
Almost 12 hours after Jupiter in Sagittarius stations direct, Uranus
stations retrograde in 6 degrees of Taurus.
Uranus will remain retrograde until January 10, 2020, when it stations
direct in 2 degrees of Taurus. Uranus is
known as the Great Awakener, a rebel at heart and generally feels like an
outsider. Uranus retrograde in Taurus
will challenge us to maintain stability, especially financial stability and
will be a time to reflect and make changes.
Uranus retrograde will trigger us to break free from what’s been holding
us back. If you have been trying to make
changes in your life but have been stuck, Uranus retrograde will induce
internal changes in attitude or behavior that will help you make those changes
once Uranus goes direct. And we all know
there are major changes coming down the pike in January 2020, especially with
the Saturn Pluto conjunction in Capricorn. It will let you process internally
(a retrograde theme) before manifesting the external changes that will bring
higher self-awareness. I have Uranus
retrograde natally in my 10th house, which helps explain my choice
of astrology and healing as a career. So
Uranus retrograde is not as difficult or challenging as Mercury or Venus
retrograde. I also have Venus
retrograde, but that is a story for another time…
Also on August 11, 2019, Mercury re-enters Leo for the
first time since July 18th. Mercury
had been in Leo since June 26, 2019 and stationed retrograde in 4 degrees of
Leo on July 7, 2019. So now we will have
the full Mercury in Leo experience with it moving very fast until August 29,
2019. Communication is bound to get more
dramatic for the rest of August. And,
ta-da, Mercury clears its retrograde shadow in 4 degrees of Leo on August 15,
2019, just in time for the full moon in Aquarius.
The full moon on August 15, 2019 will be in 22 degrees of
Aquarius. This full moon will be heavily
influenced by Uranus, because Uranus rules Aquarius. There will definitely be a feeling of
increased momentum. Themes of truths
being revealed and perhaps the need to strike out alone could prevail. There are a lot of planets in fixed signs
during this full moon: in addition to the sun in Leo and moon in Aquarius, we
have Mercury, Mars and Venus in Leo and Uranus in Taurus. This is very stubborn
energy. Mercury in Leo will be squaring
Uranus in Taurus, so be mindful of impulsive energy that could cause you to say
things you might later regret. But this
aspect could bring some inspired insights.
The full moon in Aquarius will also be opposing Mars and Venus in Leo,
which could make us moody, short-tempered and more aggressive. It will definitely bring more conflict,
drama, and tension in relationships. A
full moon in Aquarius opposing Venus in Leo could also entice us into a little
retail therapy in order to cope with all of this drama. We will probably feel
at our breaking point on some level, as if something has to give with all of
these fixed signs in oppositions and squares.
I am set to receive some major hits to my chart with this full moon; it
opposes my Pluto in Leo in my 11th house and squares my sun and
Venus in Scorpio in my second house.
We do have one redeeming aspect occurring on August 15,
2019. Mercury in Leo trines Chiron in
Aries that day and that aspect can go a long way towards healing old emotional
wounds if we apply ourselves and are honest with others. Let’s hold on to that thought as the full
moon approaches. And the moon enters the
sensitive and compassionate water sign of Pisces shortly before midnight on
August 15th.
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 and
a telephone astrology consultation can be a perfect way to find out how the
July 2019 eclipses affected your chart and impacted your life.
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:

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:
