A Super New Moon in Libra Helps Us to Set Some New Intentions to Achieve Balance in Relationships


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:
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:


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.  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 out:
