The sun may be in Sagittarius but Venus has entered
Capricorn and Jupiter is getting ready to enter Capricorn as well. Venus entered Capricorn on November 25, 2019,
inspiring me to tweet:
Venus enters Capricorn today which creates a more serious and responsible vibe for relationships, finances, and values. #astrology— Linda Simons (@danceofphoenix) November 25, 2019
Jupiter enters Capricorn on December 2, 2019 and remains in
Capricorn through December 10, 2020.
Jupiter is considered to be “in fall” in the sign of Capricorn. Jupiter
is not considered to be strong in Capricorn because its path to expansion, joy
and good luck is restricted by Capricorn’s love of caution and conformity. It
tends to put the brakes on expansiveness but it can still bring good fortune to
those who are willing to work for it. Don’t
forget that Capricorn is a workaholic sign.
It denotes a major shift in consciousness from Jupiter in
Sagittarius. Jupiter rules Sagittarius,
so that transit had a very freewheeling and risk-taking vibe.
Jupiter in Capricorn is more averse to risk-taking and its
energy is better utilized by cultivating the skills of perseverance,
reliability, practicality, common sense, logic and structuring ourselves. It marks
a time for direction, clear goals, making plans, organizing and conducting
ourselves with maturity, integrity and a sense of ethics. Success comes from streamlining, being
resourceful and engaging in self-control which encourages us to be
self-reliant. In short, Jupiter in
Capricorn makes us work for our luck.
Saturn is in Capricorn for most of 2020, except for when it tiptoes into
Aquarius from March 21, 2020 through July 1, 2020. Saturn permanently enters Aquarius on
December 17, 2020. The combination of Saturn and Jupiter in Capricorn helps us
to create more joy and pleasure in pursuing our goals. And don’t forget that Pluto is still in
Capricorn helping us to implement transformation.
The major thing to consider with Jupiter transiting
Capricorn is which house it will hit in your natal chart. Jupiter in Capricorn will start in my 3rd
house and will conjunct my north node in Capricorn in mid-January 2020. I know that if I want some good luck in this
area of my life (communications, short trips and immediate environment) that I
am going to have to work for it because that is what the north node does: it forces
you to stretch out of your comfort zone.
I admit that for many years I struggled with having a north node in
Capricorn because it seemed alien to me but I am finally learning how to
embrace its challenges and stretch out of my comfort zone. It’s not always easy but it can be immensely
rewarding.
As an astrologer, I’ve also been reflecting on previous
Jupiter in Capricorn transits. They occur
every 12 years and reflecting on them allows us the opportunity to see patterns
in our lives. The last time Jupiter was
in Capricorn was from December 18, 2007 through January 5, 2009. Yes, there was a major economic downturn back
then which saw massive job losses and a financial crisis that has been
described as the Great Recession. It stemmed from the collapse of the real
estate market and the subprime mortgage crisis.
Could it happen again? We have a
major conjunction of Saturn and Pluto in Capricorn which is exact on January
12, 2020 in 22 degrees of Capricorn, so there is the potential for major shakeups
in the areas of finances, politics and institutions. The shadow side of Jupiter in Capricorn is an
attraction to power and those who wield it.
Just remember not to chase it and give away your control during this
transit.
The previous Jupiter in Capricorn transits occurred from
January 4, 1996 through January 21, 1997 and from January 20, 1984 through
February 6, 1985. Personally I experienced some job changes during those Jupiter
transits. I am self-employed now but I’m
not ruling out any changes in my business during this transit of Jupiter in
Capricorn.
Anyone who has their sun, moon or ascendant in Capricorn
will undoubtedly experience a time of great and change and progress in their
lives as a result of this Jupiter in Capricorn transit. People with sun in
Capricorn will be likely to attract success, recognition and have a surge in
terms of their creative juices flowing.
A native with a Capricorn ascendant might feel like they are entering a
new phase of life and possibly a new career.
And those with moon in Capricorn could see improvements in their home
and family life, including a bigger home. Don’t forget that Jupiter loves to
expand whatever it touches.
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

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

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.

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.

was also featured in the July 3, 2017 edition of Boston Voyager, an online
publication that runs a section called Inspiring Stories about local

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:
