Prepare for Some Action as the Sun Moves into Gemini and Mars Enters Aries

 

Get ready for some action, folks because the planets are once again on the move.  We are still in the midst of Mercury retrograde and we have just come out of an especially intense Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio on May 16, when I tweeted:

Today is the #LunarEclipse in Scorpio that forces us to embrace change and release what is no longer serving our best interests. It’s easier if we don’t resist but complicated with the fixed energy of the Taurus Sun and Scorpio Moon. #astrology

The Sun is leaving the fixed earth sign of Taurus on May 20 and entering the mutable air sign of Gemini.  Relief is in sight as we are motivated to become more communicative, knowledgeable and  versatile (hello multi-tasking). We are opening up to new ideas and mental activities.  Quite literally, having the Sun in Gemini is a breath of fresh air.  Having a finger in every pot and being able to go with the flow is the new normal.  When the Sun is in a mutable sign, we find it easier to embrace change and new perspectives. Just remember that the shadow side of the Sun in Gemini is a tendency to be a bit scattered and we will be fine.

As I mentioned Mercury is still retrograde until June 3, but it back pedals into Taurus on May 22 and it will station direct in 26 degrees of Taurus on June 3.  Mercury will leave Taurus on June 13.  Until then, we should use this time to focus on practical matters by reviewing them with a sense of purpose.  Go over the fine details because there might be something that we missed when Mercury was previously galloping through Taurus in April 2022.  We can be more focused with Mercury in Taurus, but be mindful not to be too stubborn or rigid. It's no coincidence that the symbol for Taurus is a Bull...

We have another astrological event occurring on May 22 which is highly significant.  Mars in Pisces is forming a supportive sextile to Pluto in 28 degrees of Capricorn. This is a real go-getter aspect as it bestows us with the energy to achieve our goals as well as the courage to tackle projects that we once might have deemed too much to handle.  It gives us more perseverance and can even amplify our physical and sexual energy.  This is a high-octane day, so make the most of it.  

On May 24, Mars departs Pisces and enters its home sign of Aries until July 5.  Mars is a very happy camper in Aries and is feeling at ease. Mars in Aries can bring us some optimism and a sense of power. Its energy is spontaneous, forward-looking and more courageous.  Don't forget that Mars is the planet that drives us to pursue our passions and it is a warrior.  So if you have been feeling stuck or drowning in your emotions, Mars in the cardinal fire sign of Aries will get you moving pronto.  But just keep in mind that Mars in Aries is also impatient, impulsive and can be self-centered.  Tempers could flare, but the storms will probably blow over quickly.  The main thing to remember with Mars in Aries is that we will feel compelled to move forward and making progress is a good thing.

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?

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.  As a direct result of the Sun-Neptune conjunction in Pisces on March 13, I introduced a new one-question tarot reading. These can be done by phone or video.

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!
