Libra season is in full force these days and it became
official on September 23, 2019 when the sun entered Libra. On that day I tweeted:
Happy #fallequinox today as the sun enters Libra and we focus on achieving a sense of balance in our lives. #astrology— Linda Simons (@danceofphoenix) September 23, 2019
The sun joined Mercury and Venus in Libra. On September 28, 2019, we will have a Super
New Moon in 5 degrees of Libra. It’s called a super new moon because the moon
is in very close orbit to the earth and that makes its influence even more
potent. This new moon is centered on many
of the traditional Libra themes of justice, rebalancing extremes and obtaining more
harmony in relationships.
But this new moon has some very intriguing aspects involved
that supply an added emphasis and oomph to the relationship theme. For starters, the sun and moon in 5 degrees
of Libra are opposing Chiron the wounded healer in 3 degrees of Aries. This opposition to Chiron can activate a
healing process or even a crisis. It may
very well require that we release our fears of not being good enough. It could provide a powerful opportunity to
heal some longstanding wounds in relationships.
The sun and moon in Libra are also forming an inconjunct to
Uranus in 5 degrees of Taurus. Since
Uranus is the planet associated with sudden upsets, an undercurrent of
rebellion could rise to the surface very suddenly. We could find ourselves craving freedom big
time if we have felt the least bit stifled in our relationships. And since the inconjunct is the aspect that
pretty much demands adjustments in order for the planets involved to co-exist,
we may have to make some compromises as we reevaluate our priorities in
existing relationships.
The aspects that this new moon makes to both Chiron and
Uranus are compelling us to move forward spiritually. Chiron in Aries pertains to healing our own
wounds around identity and Uranus in Taurus, a sign ruled by Venus, can deliver
some new insights into healing old relationship issues. This will be an action packed new moon
because we have six planets in cardinal signs: the sun, moon, Mercury, and
Venus in Libra in addition to Saturn and Pluto and Capricorn. Cardinal signs love to initiate action, which
is a big change from the Virgo season of mutable energy, which can at times be
so confusing that it is hard to make any discernible progress.
There is also a very karmic feeling to this new moon in
Libra courtesy of Saturn in 14 degrees of Capricorn conjunct the south node of
the moon. It can be a time of getting
what we have earned for past efforts.
Something from the past could resurface to literally tip the
relationship scales or some relationships could end if they have run their
course. Saturn has a way of testing us
and removing outworn structures that no longer serve our best interests. Saturn in Capricorn has been squaring Venus
in Libra since September 25th and while this is definitely a testing
aspect, it can help us to be more realistic about relationships and perhaps set
some much needed boundaries. I know that
I personally will be feeling the karmic nature of this new moon as it falls in
my 12th house and squares my north node in Capricorn and south node
in Cancer.
Pluto in Capricorn isn’t letting us off the hook with this
new moon either. We will be feeling its
influence due to an approaching square from Venus in Libra that is exact on
October 1, 2019 in their respective signs.
I have a natal Venus Pluto square, so I am all too familiar with the
havoc this aspect can wreak. Venus
square Pluto can trigger feelings of jealousy and possessiveness. Obsession is its theme song. Mercury in 22 degrees of Libra is also
squaring Pluto in 20 degrees of Capricorn on the new moon, which can generate
quite a bit of intensity, manipulation, jealousy and control issues on its
own. So communications could get a
little heated on this new moon.
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:

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

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
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.

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:
