Mercury on the Move

 


Mercury has been sailing through the mutable water sign of Pisces since March 9, but it is about to switch gears and move into the cardinal fire sign of Aries on March 27.  Mercury in Pisces is very dreamy, nebulous and sometimes quite foggy, but it has made some major aspects in its short transit.  On March 21, Mercury and Neptune were conjunct in Pisces and on that day I tweeted:

Before Mercury departs the sign of Pisces, it makes one powerhouse of an aspect when it forms a supportive sextile to Pluto in 28 degrees of Capricorn on March 26, 2022.  Mark my words, there will be a depth and intensity to our thinking and conversations on that day. This is a great aspect for astrologers, psychics and healers because it has a deep dive quality.  Our willpower will be at an all-time high.  Magnetism and allure will be off the charts as our powers of persuasion will be very strong.  And it is possible to uncover more secrets with this aspect in play.  We could be feeling more empowered to embark on a new course of action when these two planets are in cahoots.

On March 27, Mercury moves into Aries until April 10, 2022.  Aries season kicked off on March 20 when the Sun entered Aries.  When Mercury is in Aries, communication will become more assertive, direct, creative and fearless.  It will spice up conversations and ideas. Mercury in Aries will take us out of the doldrums of Mercury in Pisces, which had a rather confusing vibe.  When Mercury is in Aries, we tend to be more impatient and impulsive with a tendency to look before we leap.  That is the shadow side of Mercury in Aries, which can also make us more inconsiderate of others' feelings as we are primarily focused on ourselves.  But it does generate a blast of fresh air to our mental process, so make the most of it and try to be mindful of others.

Impatience seems to be a key theme that is prevalent these days and Mercury in Aries will exacerbate our impatience.  I hear it from friends, clients and have been experiencing my own share of impatience in life.  Sometimes I feel that it is hard to believe that all of the planets are in direct motion until April 29 when Pluto stations retrograde because progress seems so slow.  The general feeling is that things are not happening fast enough.  I was wondering what could be causing this when I realized that the North Node of the Moon in 23 degrees of Taurus was squaring Saturn in 20 degrees of Aquarius.  Talk about a test of patience!  This aspect can produce pessimism and a feeling that it is easy to be stuck in the past as it challenges us to overcome obstacles.  And it takes longer than we like  for progress to be achieved.  Of course, while the North Node, or our soul's goal,  is in Taurus, the South Node, or our karmic baggage, is in Scorpio.  So if you have any planets in 20-25 degrees of the fixed signs of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius, you are probably experiencing enormous challenges.  My Sun and Venus in Scorpio are taking some major hits these days. And my Pluto in Leo had its share in January and February when the North and South Nodes were squaring it.

I have a natal sextile between my north node in Capricorn and my Saturn in Scorpio.  Sextiles are a lot easier to deal with than squares. I do feel that my sextile has pushed and supported me to develop more self-reliance and self-discipline in my life.  I don't consider myself to be a patient person due to a natal square between Mars in Aquarius and Saturn in Scorpio, but I am grateful for my organizational skills and sense of responsibility.

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. 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?

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. 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!

An Empowering Full Moon in Virgo and the Sun Enters Aries

 



Today, March 18 is the day of the Full Moon in 27 degrees of Virgo.  While this is not technically a Super Moon, it will prove to be a pretty powerful Full Moon given the current state of the world.  The Sun in Pisces and Moon in Virgo are signs associated with health and they can work together to heal the body and the soul.  But they can also generate confusion and clarity as we are forced to see things that we don't want to see.  Virgo loves to analyze and fix things.  It is definitely a time to take care of our health but also to release our need for perfectionism.

Full Moons are highly emotional times and this one is no exception.  I know that most people have been feeling its effects since earlier in the week.  On March 17 I tweeted:

What is going on with the astrological landscape of this Full Moon?  I think that we need to acknowledge the Grand Earth Trine involving the Moon in 27 degrees of Virgo, Pluto in 28 degrees of Capricorn and the North Node in 24 degrees of Taurus.  The North Node represents our collective soul path in life and what we should be striving to achieve.  Earth energy likes to get things done and with a Full Moon in Virgo we have a strong theme of spiritual and practical service to others.  Frankly, I can't think of a better time to act on this compassionate and spiritual vibe. This Full Moon is occurring in my 12th house trining my Chiron in Capricorn so I am all for doing whatever can be done to heal myself and others.

There is a theme of empowerment with this Full Moon because the Sun in Pisces is forming a supportive sextile to Pluto in Capricorn and the Moon is trining it.  With the Sun sextiling Pluto, we might find ourselves resurrecting an old interest or talent from the past and reclaiming it.  We can run with this energy to make it a time of empowerment for the people by putting our best intentions forward to serve the collective good.  The Sun and Neptune in 23 degrees of Pisces are also conjunct on the Full Moon, adding to the compassionate nature of this Full Moon. Mercury in 13 degrees of Pisces is conjunct Jupiter 18 degrees of Pisces on the Full Moon, which will provide a boost of creative energy that also benefits from the sextile to Uranus in 12 degrees of Taurus.

Uranus in Taurus isn't done stirring the pot with the Full Moon.  On March 19 Venus in 12 degrees of Aquarius is squaring Uranus in 12 degrees of Taurus.  This aspect can bring sudden romantic upsets or emotional breakups.  It's pretty volatile energy.  But it can also increase our interest in music and the arts, so it does have some perks.  On March 22 Mars in 12 degrees of Aquarius is taking its turn squaring Uranus in 12 degrees of Taurus.  These two planets are definitely not playing nicely in the sandbox and we can expect more emotional upsets, possibly more earthquakes and there is a clear and present danger of cyberattacks.

But on March 20 the Sun moves into Aries for the first day of Spring and the Astrological New Year.  It is officially International Astrology Day.  The Sun is leaving the mutable and highly emotional water sign of Pisces for the cardinal fire sign of Aries.  Our focus will shift to feeling more impulsive and craving action. We are enthusiastic, spontaneous, direct and motivated by the desire to conquer. It is a time to take action and let go of the past.  We have more courage to pursue our dreams, the ones that were cultivated when the Sun was in Pisces.

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. 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?

Sun Conjunct Neptune in Pisces Can Either Deliver Dreams and Inspiration or Heightened Paranoia and Sadness



If you are feeling somewhat adrift these days, it's perfectly understandable given the current state of the world and the fact that we are still sailing through Pisces season.  Not only are the Sun, Jupiter and Neptune in Pisces, but on March 9 Mercury entered Pisces.  On that day I tweeted:
The bottom line is that this a great deal of water energy and we all know that the water signs of Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces have deep emotions. So we have a stellium in Pisces now.  The Sun and Jupiter were conjunct in 14 degrees of Pisces on March 5 and on March 11, the Sun and Neptune will be conjunct in 22 degrees of Pisces.  Sun-Neptune conjunctions occur once a year and in Pisces they can be a very big deal.

The highest manifestation of a Sun-Neptune conjunction in Pisces can be quite magical and idealistic.  Some people might feel like their dreams are coming true because Neptune is the planet associated with spirituality.  But let us not forget that the planet Neptune also entails delusion, paranoia and sadness.  Addiction, suffering and escapism are common themes related to Neptune's domain.  Deception can run rampant.  This is a deeply emotional time so don't be surprised if you feel the need to cry on this day; feel free to let it out.  Our sensitivity, intuition and empathy are increased when the Sun and Neptune hook up.  This can be good or bad.  If you are surrounded by negative people or situations, this can be very draining.

What is the best way to cope with this deep energy?  One thing you can do if you have some negative influences in your life is to try to set some boundaries.  Neptune is not exactly known for its use of boundaries, but if we are being drained and don't attempt to set some clear boundaries, we will literally feel like we are drowning in a sea of emotions. We can also utilize the escapist theme of this aspect by giving ourself permission to enjoy a movie or book that provides a temporary respite from our reality.  Or we could tap into the compassionate side of this energy and donate to relief funds that support the  Ukrainians.  I have donated to United Help Ukraine, which you can find at:


There is more emotional depth on tap for March 13 with the Moon in Cancer opposing Pluto in 28 degrees of Capricorn.  This can bring mood swings, turmoil, relationship drama, manipulation and power struggles.  I am not flat out predicting a bad day, but I think that we all need to be aware of the potential pitfalls that could occur.  I would also encourage you to take a look at where this conjunction is falling in your natal chart.  For me, it is in my 6th house of work, health, and daily routines.  It is also conjunct my Part of Fortune in 21 degrees of Pisces.

There is one more upcoming aspect that I would like to address.  On March 17, Mercury in Pisces is forming a supportive sextile to Uranus in 12 degrees of Taurus.  This can bring very future-oriented thinking and open-mindedness as our intuitive powers are getting quite the boost. Exciting news and stimulating conversations will abound.  But we could also experience flashes of insight and have dreams with important messages.  So be on alert on that day!

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.

A Blend of Lucky Piscean Energy While Mars and Venus Enter Aquarius

 


Astrolada | Mars in Aquarius. Energy and Sex Drive

Venus in Aquarius – Karma-Free Astrology


Well, we are just coming off the New Moon in Pisces from March 2, 2022.  It was a complicated day and back then I tweeted:

If you weren't feeling blessed on the New Moon, hold on for March 5 when the Sun and Jupiter conjoin in 14 degrees of Pisces.  This could turn out to be one of the luckiest days of the year.  When the Sun and Jupiter are conjunct, we can expect optimism to abound, good luck to appear and a general sense of well-being and happiness.  Other themes with this aspect include growth, spiritual connections and creative expansion.  It will definitely be a day to dream big and work on creating a miracle.  I am stoked because this aspect falls in my 5th house and trines my Sun and Saturn in Scorpio while also trining my Cancer Midheaven. Of course, we all know that Jupiter loves to do things in a big way, so watch out for boastfulness, extravagance and greed.  That is the shadow side of a Sun-Jupiter conjunction, but I personally think that we can handle it.

On the following day, March 6, both Mars and Venus depart the sign of Capricorn and enter the fixed air sign of Aquarius.  Mars and Venus have been dancing together for quite awhile and they aren't done yet.  This is because of the recent Venus retrograde in December 2021 and through most of January 2022.  Mars enters Aquarius at 1:23 am on the 6th and Venus moves into Aquarius at 1:30 am.  Mars will be in Aquarius until April 14 and Venus will be in Aquarius until April 5.  

I have a vested interest in this because I have a natal Mars in Aquarius.  When Mars is in Aquarius, we are motivated to stand up for our rights and fight for change, using our minds as weapons.  Mars in Aquarius loves fresh ideas and original plans for the future.  It is a real rebel vibe with radical energy levels.  Mars in Aquarius will also be a driving force for humanitarian actions, which are sorely needed now.

Venus in Aquarius is a time when friends could easily become lovers and it is possible to meet someone new through friends.  It is a more detached vibe and it places an unconventional spin on romance.  Honesty and friendship become extremely important in relationships.  High-tech gadgets can also be calling out to us to spend money on them.  It's okay to pursue your own passions now as they could very well generate more money for us.  Yes, Venus is also associated with money as well as love.

Mars and Venus will be conjunct in 0 degrees of Aquarius on March 6.  They were conjunct on the Full Moon of February 16 in 16 degrees of Capricorn.  But Mars and Venus conjunct in Aquarius is a whole different ball game.  Relationships will become more experimental and creative.  We will feel freer to take a break from obsession and rethink old relationship patterns. This conjunction is also triggering the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction in 0 degrees of Aquarius that occurred on December 21, 2020.  Jupiter-Saturn conjunctions have a tendency to usher in new cycles.  No one can deny that since the pandemic began in 2020, we are in uncharted territory and a new age is upon us.

The Piscean energy continues on March 9 when Mercury enters Pisces, where it stays until March 27.  Yes, Mercury tends to move pretty fast when it isn't retrograde and March is one month when all of the planets are direct, so make the most of it. Mercury traveling through Pisces has a magical vibe and is great for artists and creative types.  Our thinking is more visual, intuitive and imaginative.  We are more attuned to our emotions but we are not too concise.  Try to embrace the concept of surrender, a key Pisces theme and by all means keep a dream journal because our dreams will probably be sending us a lot of important messages now.

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. 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?

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.


I am also happy to announce that I recently joined Snipfeed.  It is a new platform for my astrological readings and it also allows you to make donations for my content in the form of tips.  Please check it out at: 

Dance of the Phoenix is also 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. You can find me at:

I am still experiencing technical difficulties with the Buy Now buttons on the Services Offered page of my site.  In the meantime, please feel free to send payments through PayPal to my email at lindasim54@gmail.com. Just let me know which type of reading you want with your birth date info.  Or you can send a payment to my Venmo account at Linda Simons @Linda-Simons-7 or Zelle using my phone number 617-304-2205.

In 2020, I added a Monthly Horoscopes section to my website. March horoscopes are up now and I now have a link to my monthly forecasts at Horoscope Junkie.  Check it out at:

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. 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!
