Uranus Takes Another Hit, a Potent Heart-Centered New Moon in Leo and Mercury Enters Virgo

 




Uranus in Taurus is seeing a great deal of planetary action this week and for that matter, all year.  How could we forget that Saturn in Aquarius has three exact squares with Uranus in Taurus, in February, June and December of 2021? On August 3, Mercury in 14 degrees of Leo exactly squared Uranus in Taurus and I tweeted:

Get ready for Uranus to take another hit from the Sun in Leo squaring Uranus on August 6.  This will be another stressful aspect as it manifests in unease, uncertainty and anxiety about the impending changes that are coming, like it or not.  Unexpected disturbances are par for the course with this energy.  Sudden changes in behavior are likely and we will have no problem standing up for ourselves if the situation calls for it.  If you have any planets around 14 degrees of the fixed signs of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio or Aquarius, you will feel the brunt of this aspect.  I have my natal Saturn in 12 degrees of Scorpio and Mars in 14 degrees of Aquarius, so I know that I am on the firing line.

But we do have a delightful New Moon in 16 degrees of Leo on August 8.  There is a great deal of buzz about this being called the Lionsgate 88 Portal.  What does this mean?  It is activated by the numerology of 8/8 and the rising of the star Sirius, which is the Spiritual Sun.  The lion represents Leo and Leo rules the heart.  This New Moon should open a galactic portal allowing high vibrational energy to be sent to earth.  Sounds pretty good, doesn’t it? And the number 8 is associated with infinity and the forever conscious part of our soul.  So this New Moon has the potential for creating abundance, power and higher realms of consciousness.  This is a perfect time to set new heart-centered intentions as we embark on a path of change and clearing our energy to receive.

All New Moons have a theme of setting new intentions but a New Moon in Leo is all about creativity and planting the seeds of growth for whatever area of life the New Moon falls in your chart.  For me personally, it is at the end of my 10th house of career and public standing.  We also have a preponderance of planets in fixed signs: the Sun, Moon, and Mercury in Leo, Jupiter and Saturn in Aquarius and Uranus in Taurus.  The fixed signs possess a great deal of tenacity and determination, so they will pursue what they want and not give up easily.  And of course, this New Moon is setting off that astrological elephant in the room, the Saturn-Uranus square.  The fixed signs will feel the effects of this New Moon the most as they seek to break down the old in their quest to break through to the new.  And that Moon is squaring Uranus in Taurus, so I am sure there will be some surprises headed our way.

On August 11, Mercury departs Leo, where it has been extremely uncomfortable and enters its happy place, Virgo.  Mercury rules Gemini and Virgo, so it will definitely be in a better place until August 30.  When Mercury is in Virgo, our minds are sharp and our speech is precise.  We have a laser-like attention to details.  We will have more power to analyze information and communication is clearer.  Just be mindful that the shadow side of Mercury in Virgo is a tendency to be hypercritical and we should all enjoy this transit.

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. This new Delta strain of the virus is very serious and we need to remain vigilant with our masks, even if we are fully vaccinated.  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!
