A Powerfully Transformative Lunar Eclipse in Taurus and Here Comes the Sun and Mercury in Sagittarius

 



Eclipse season is officially here with the arrival of a Lunar Eclipse in 27 degrees of Taurus on November 19.  I always tell my clients that eclipses are like Full or New Moons on steroids, and this one is no exception to that rule.  It would not be an understatement to say that this has been one super-emotional week.  The Sun is in Scorpio, which is fixed water and those still waters run deep.  With the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Taurus opposing that Scorpio Sun, we are being challenged to clear out our psychological garbage to get to the joy that the Taurus Moon promises.  If you have been contemplating therapy, this is a prime time to undertake that process. Don’t forget that Taurus is ruled by Venus, which is all about love, pleasure and material security.  And the Sun in Scorpio is ruled by Pluto, which is all about transformation and power.

I have been hearing from many of my clients that they have been experiencing emotional turmoil for the past week.  Deep down we all know that change is inevitable, and that is the theme behind this year’s prevailing aspect of Saturn in Aquarius squaring Uranus in Taurus.  We had the first hit on February 17, the second one on June 14 and the final will occur on December 24.  Both Saturn and Uranus were triggered on November 17, when I tweeted:


The Lunar Eclipse in Taurus has strong themes of security, stability, finances, possessions, loyalty and trust.  And all of this is occurring against a backdrop of change and uncertainty.  Both the Sun in Scorpio and Moon in Taurus are involved in a T-Square with Jupiter in 24 degrees of Aquarius.  This configuration calls upon us to be more open-minded as the theme of freedom is blown up.  Don’t forget that Jupiter loves to expand whatever it touches.  Mercury is in 22 degrees of Scorpio, so we can expect that some more shocking news will be revealed.  But don’t count out the trine between Venus in Capricorn and Uranus in Taurus to deliver some positive breakthroughs.

On November 21, the Sun will enter the mutable fire sign of Sagittarius at 9:34 p.m.  Not a minute too soon, if you ask this Scorpio.  I know that I love Scorpio season, but every year I say this that it can be exhausting after all of this deep diving into the darker side of ourselves and life.  When the Sun is in Sagittarius, ruled by jovial Jupiter, we will all feel more optimistic. Life will become more adventurous too, as opposed to the arduous nature of the Sun in Scorpio, ruled by the intense planet of Pluto.  Our desires will switch from wanting one-on-one bonds to reaching out of our inner circle and connecting with something larger than us.  It is a time to nurture our faith and vision for the future. Let the good times roll…

Mercury, the planet of communication, is about to join the Sun in the sign of Sagittarius on November 24.  It’s only there until December 13, so make the most of it.  Mercury transiting the sign of Sagittarius expands our minds so that we have more perception of the big picture.  It’s a big change from the laser-like focus of Mercury in Scorpio.  Our ideals will become very important now, but the details not so much.  Mercury in Sagittarius is intrinsically more optimistic and since it is in a mutable sign, it gives us permission to change our minds.  After the recent cluster of fixed planets in Scorpio and the Lunar Eclipse in Taurus, this will be a huge relief. Just be mindful of the fact that Mercury in Sagittarius can be quite blunt, and we should be fine.

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. I have recently added a new offering to my astrological services menu.  As an astrologer and a healer, I am delighted to be able to include a Health and Wellbeing Report that provides a focus on health related matters in the natal chart and offers nutritional advice and stress management tips.  Who couldn’t use that these days?

I am also offering private astrology lessons by telephone or video, such as FaceTime, Skype or Zoom.  Please feel free to contact me at lindasim54@gmail.com if you are interested in learning more about astrology.

I have been doing more work with tarot readings, which I love, so I decided to create a 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.

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:

Additionally, I am available for tarot readings by telephone.  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. I offer a 24 card tarot card reading for $50 which incorporates the twelve houses of the horoscope.

The coronavirus outbreak caused me to increase the number of distant Reiki sessions I do because people were 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. But 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. If you are eligible for a booster shot, get it. The 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! 

 

Happy Thanksgiving to all of my American readers.
