Personal Planets on the Move as Mercury Enters Scorpio and Venus Enters Capricorn


 

Scorpio season is about to heat up even more on November 5 when Mercury enters the fixed water sign of Scorpio until November 24.  I know, we are just coming off an extremely intense New Moon in Scorpio that happened on the 4th.  On that day I tweeted:

Mercury enters Scorpio at 6:35 p.m. on November 5.  As someone who has a natal Mercury in Scorpio, I am all too familiar with its energy.  I can tell you first hand that when Mercury is transiting the sign of Scorpio, thoughts and communications will be more probing and intense.  Scorpio is a born detective, so there will definitely be big reveals coming.  Mercury in Scorpio has an urge to dig deep and leave no stone unturned as it is very laser focused and can become downright obsessive at times.  A sharp tongue is also part and parcel of Mercury in Scorpio, so watch out for those verbal zingers that can sting just like a scorpion. I have often said about myself and people I know with Mercury in Scorpio that the mouth should be registered as a lethal weapon! Anger and spite will surface. 

 On November 10, Mercury will be conjunct Mars in 7 degrees of Scorpio.  This could be a very tense and eruptive day, so we can expect some fireworks then. Harsh actions can result.  Both Mercury and Mars will be squaring Saturn in 7 degrees of Aquarius as well.  This is very stubborn energy, which can manifest in fights, manipulation and control issues.  And Mercury, Mars, and Saturn are all squaring Uranus in 12 degrees of Taurus, which adds a rather rebellious vibe to the mix.  On the 11th, Mercury in Scorpio will be inconjunct Chiron in 9 degrees of Aries, which can result in some harsh words being unleashed that really wound.  But if we make the adjustments that inconjuncts demand, there is a shot at healing some old wounds.  Scorpio does like to dredge up the past, but purging is possible because it is necessary.

In case you weren’t aware, the personal planets are the Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury and Venus.  Venus moves from the easygoing, mutable fire sign of Sagittarius into Capricorn at 6:44 a.m. on November 5.  But guess what-Venus will remain in the sign of Capricorn until March 6, 2022.  This is because Venus will station retrograde in 26 degrees of Capricorn on December 19, and will station direct in 11 degrees of Capricorn on January 29, 2022.  Venus is retrograde approximately every 18 months.  I was born under a Venus retrograde in Scorpio and I can tell you that Venus retrograde has a way of delaying gratification in love and money.  I also don’t believe in getting married under a Venus retrograde; Jennifer Aniston married Brad Pitt during a Venus Retrograde and that didn’t turn out to be happily ever after.

 

When Venus is in Capricorn, it’s a time to get serious about love and finances. We tend to approach relationships with a more mature approach.  It is associated with hard work, commitment, responsibility and stability.  Venus transiting the sign of Capricorn is not a time for flings or frivolous spending.  We might find ourselves having to deal with pretty serious issues in relationships; it’s definitely not as lighthearted and spontaneous as Venus in Sagittarius.  Venus in Capricorn will also be activating the Saturn-Pluto conjunction in 22 degrees of Capricorn that occurred in 2020 and ushered in the pandemic.  Astrologer Anne Ortelee refers to it as the “COVID Cluster.” We will experience the first hit around December 5 when Venus is direct, the second time on January 2, 2022 when Venus is retrograde and the third time on February 22, 2022 when Venus is direct.  Don’t be surprised if there is financial news about the economy surfacing during this Venus retrograde because it will also be a period of reassessment of financial plans.  Hopefully we will get it right by the third hit in February 2022.  I firmly believe that it frequently takes the third hit of a transit before we are able to assimilate its energy and successfully apply it to our lives.

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?

Check out my menu of services at:

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:

If you prefer to send a donation through Venmo or pay for a reading through Venmo, my handle is Linda Simons @Linda-Simons-7.  Or you can send a contribution using Zelle and my phone number 617-304-2205.

 

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.

Dance of the Phoenix is now on Patreon.  If you have been inspired or informed by my work which is a labor of love, I would greatly appreciate it if you would consider contributing any amount that you can afford to support my endeavors.  No amount is too small.  Thank you all for reading my insights, musings and content.

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!
