Communication Gets More Serious as Mercury Enters Capricorn



Venus may have left the Capricorn party of the Sun, Saturn, Pluto and Ceres on December 20, 2019, when I tweeted:
but on December 28, 2019 Mercury will enter Capricorn until January 16, 2020.  That’s right folks, Mercury will be in Capricorn for the next eclipse on January 10, 2020 and the upcoming Saturn Pluto conjunction on January 12, 2020.

When Mercury transits the earth sign of Capricorn, communication gets more serious, clear and rational.  Our ideas are more structured as our thinking becomes more methodical.  Its timing is perfect for setting New Year’s resolutions because Mercury in Capricorn is so goal oriented.  Mercury in Capricorn is a very favorable influence for focusing on business and practical matters.  The shadow side of Mercury in Capricorn is the tendency to be too controlling which detracts from its constructive nature and we can also be quite rigid when Mercury in Capricorn.

Mercury in Capricorn is also making some very favorable aspects during the coming week.  On December 30, 2019, it forms an exact trine with Uranus in 2 degrees of Taurus.  This aspect will open up our minds to exciting ideas involving new technologies and the possibility of new friends coming into our lives.

While Mercury isn’t making any particular aspects on New Year’s Eve, December 31, 2019, we do end the year and the decade on a note of hope with the Pisces moon forming a supportive sextile to the sun in 9 degrees of Capricorn.  This aspect has a strong theme of surrendering to the present, letting go of the past and having faith in the future.  That element of faith is reinforced by the Pisces moon conjuncting Neptune in 16 degrees of Pisces.

On January 2, 2020, Mercury in Capricorn conjuncts Jupiter in 6 degrees of Capricorn.  This aspect favors work and play.  It has the potential to bring good news, optimism and a happy frame of mind.  It is very auspicious for business deals and new ideas, so be sure to write down any ideas that you receive on this date.  It’s a real feel good aspect and a fabulous way to launch a new year and a new decade. 

If you are curious as to how all of these planetary changes will be affecting you, please consider getting an astrological reading.  I have recently revised my menu of services and am now offering a Saturn Pluto Conjunction reading for $25 which will offer you some insight and guidance into how this major astrological event that occurs on January 12, 2020 in 22 degrees of Capricorn will impact you.  It can be purchased through my site at:


I have also added a new reading to my menu of services, a Clues to Compatibility reading, which is designed primarily for non-romantic relationships and utilizes synastry to determine your connections with friends, family members and business associates. This one can be especially helpful during the holiday season as we gather with family, friends and business associates for holiday festivities.

An astrology reading also makes a perfect Christmas gift if you are a little late in buying your holiday gifts.  Give the gift of insight and clarity for the holidays.  Please feel free to email me at lindasim54@gmail.com to purchase a gift certificate.  You can decide how much you wish to spend and the recipient can choose which type of reading they want.  2020 promises to be an exciting year astrologically and a little insight will go a long way to navigating this year of change.

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:


Happy New Year, everyone!  Not only is it a new year, but a new decade that is sure to bring sweeping changes.
