Mars in Leo Sets off Fireworks to Begin the Month of July and Mercury Squares Neptune Take Three



I’m sure that it comes as no big surprise that Mars in Leo is very busy this month triggering the Saturn-Uranus square, the defining astrological theme of 2021.  The month of July kicked off with Mars in Leo forming an exact opposition to Saturn in 12 degrees of Aquarius.  On that day I tweeted:

It would be an understatement to say that it was a frustrating day.  As usual, I was right in the middle of the action. Mars and Saturn were exactly squaring my natal Saturn in Scorpio in my 1st house and Mars was opposing my natal Mars in Aquarius in my 4th house while Saturn was conjunct it.  And did I mention that Mars in Leo is currently transiting my 10th house?  I wasn’t the happiest of campers on that day, to say the least.

On July 3, Mars in Leo is exactly squaring Uranus in 13 degrees of Taurus.  If you are still recovering from yesterday’s Mars hit, be prepared for some highly volatile energy on that day which will feature sudden outbursts, nervous energy and, I hate to say it, but it does exist: the potential for violence.  It is very unsettling energy and is further complicated by the fact the Moon is in Aries until 8:28 a.m. on the 3rd, compounding the impulsive, me-first vibe.  But the Taurus Moon does having a saving grace aspect on the 3rd: it forms a supportive sextile to Jupiter in Pisces which should help restore our faith somewhat. 

But on July 4, the United States’ birthday, the Taurus Moon conjuncts Uranus in Taurus and squares Mars in 14 degrees of Leo.  These aspects will only serve to ramp up the unpredictablity scale and it’s highly likely that tempers will flare.  Try to avoid traveling if possible and attending large gatherings.

We get another day to breathe on July 5, but July 6 features the third exact square of Mercury in Gemini to Neptune in 23 degrees of Pisces.  The first one occurred on May 22 a few days before the Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius on May 26 and the second one happened on June 5 when Mercury was retrograde and right before the Solar Eclipse in Gemini on June 10.  Both planets will be direct on this third hit, but I encourage everyone to reflect on what was happening in your lives back then.  Mercury in Gemini was very active in eclipse season and now that is in direct motion (clearing its retrograde shadow on July 7), we just might get some mental clarity on whatever issues were troubling us during the past six weeks.  It’s the third pass of this aspect, and I personally ascribe to the theory that it takes most of us until the third time an aspect is exact to fully absorb the lesson of it and move on.  Food for thought…

Venus in Leo is forming an exact opposition to Saturn in 12 degrees of Aquarius as well on the 6th of July.  This is a red flag to warn us that we will probably be feeling overly sensitive on that day and our feelings could get hurt quite easily.  Venus-Saturn contacts are not exactly known for a warm and fuzzy vibe.

If you are curious about how all of these planetary changes will be affecting you personally, please consider getting an astrological reading. These are very challenging and unique times; an astrological reading could provide some much needed clarity and guidance.  Check out my menu of services at:

The coronavirus outbreak is causing me to increase the number of distant Reiki sessions I do because people are concerned about the spread of the infection. I have decided to suspend my in-person Reiki sessions until further notice in order to practice social distancing. I no longer have my Brookline office, so all of my Reiki sessions will be distant Reiki sessions for the foreseeable future. At some point, probably in 2022, I will find a new space to practice. In the meantime, a distant Reiki session is the perfect opportunity to safely build up your immune system and if you have contracted coronavirus, you can be treated safely from the comfort of your home. My procedure is to have a conversation with a client 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 do miss seeing my clients, so I am now offering Zoom consultations/intakes before the session so that we can see each other. 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. The cost for distance Reiki sessions is based on a sliding scale of $30 -$50. For your convenience, I accept Venmo and Zelle for payment. Zelle payments can be sent using my telephone number 617-304-2205.  I have also written an article about distance Reiki, which is available at:

I urge everyone to engage in massive amounts of self-care and follow the protective measures of washing your hands frequently, maintaining social distancing, avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth, wearing a face mask when necessary and staying home if you are sick. And get a vaccine. I repeat, you do not want to get this virus! I speak from personal experience and consider myself very fortunate to have survived Coronavirus. Stay safe and healthy, everyone! 


Happy 4th of July to my readers in the United States of America!
