Neptune Squares Contribute to a Nebulous Full Moon in Gemini and Mercury Enters Sagittarius



There is a strong sense of momentum currently with a preponderance of planets and the south node in Capricorn.  Jupiter entered Capricorn on December 2, 2019, inspiring me to tweet:
We are headed into a full moon in 19 degrees of Gemini on December 12, 2019.  But before that happens we have some rather confusing squares to Neptune in Pisces.  On December 8, 2019, the sun in 15 degrees of Sagittarius squares Neptune in 15 degrees of Pisces.  This aspect can manifest in low energy and feelings of confusion and disappointment.  It can also predispose us to feeling like a victim or martyr or even activate our savior mode.  The best use of this energy is to indulge our creative side. On a personal level, my Gemini moon in the 8th house will be activated by this square with the sun opposing my moon and Neptune squaring it.  Hopefully my Reiki work will channel this energy constructively.

On December 9, 2019, Mercury will enter Sagittarius until December 28, 2019.  Mercury has had an extended stay in the sign of Scorpio due to the recent Mercury retrograde.  Mercury has been in Scorpio since October 3, 2019.  We can expect a big change in our thinking and communication when Mercury transits Sagittarius.  Mercury in Scorpio loved to plumb the depths with laser like focus on a single situation but Mercury in Sagittarius will adopt a big picture view as it seeks to learn more about a wide range of topics.  Honesty and faith are more important to us when Mercury is in Sagittarius.  We also tend to be more optimistic and idealistic with Mercury in Sagittarius and we can be downright persuasive if we want to be.  But the shadow side of Mercury in Sagittarius is a tendency to communicate with a lack of tact or be overly preachy in expressing our views.

The full moon in 19 degrees of Gemini occurs on December 12, 2019 on the east coast of the United States.  This full moon squares Neptune in 15 degrees of Pisces which further contributes to the confusion we experienced on December 8th.  It may also contribute to a strong desire for escapism. This full moon is also conjunct my natal Gemini moon.  Full moons can shine light on previously hidden emotional matters and this one will be no exception.  The shadow side of a Gemini moon is a tendency to chatter aimlessly, gossip and engage in self-defeating talk.  This full moon in Gemini also features Mercury in 4 degrees of Sagittarius in a challenging inconjunct aspect to Uranus in 3 degrees of Taurus, which can involve a lot of information swirling around that requires us to make some adjustments or compromises in order to process it.

The lineup of planets in Capricorn, which includes Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Pluto and the south node of the moon further complicates this full moon.  Venus will be conjunct Saturn from December 10, 2019 through December 14, 2019, which have a somber influence on financial and political issues.  And we have Venus, Saturn and Pluto in Capricorn inconjunct the full moon in 19 degrees of Gemini.  Quite literally, something will have to give with all of these inconjuncts if we are to make any progress.

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.
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:
