Venus Makes Some Moves and the Sun Enters Cancer

 

Venus in Taurus has been pretty busy lately. The recent Super Full Moon in Sagittarius on June 14 was inconjunct Venus and this added to the emotional intensity.  On that day I tweeted:

Today is the Super #FullMoon in Sagittarius which has strong themes of freedom and truth. It will be very emotional. But it squares Neptune in Pisces indicating that all is not as it seems. Just warning you… #astrology

But Venus in Taurus is not done stirring the pot.  On June 18, it forms an exact square with Saturn in 25 degrees of Aquarius.  This aspect adds a whole new layer of stress to relationships.  We can experience delays, distance, criticism and fears in love.  Loneliness and depression could be running rampant.  It can literally feel like we have to work hard on our relationships to make them function.

Venus in Taurus is back to its loving form on June 19, which is Father's Day.  It forms a supportive sextile with Neptune in 25 degrees of Pisces, which can be a very romantic and passionate vibe.  It is also very creative but can see us having the urge to splurge on luxury items that make us feel better. It also tends to heighten our intuition and make us feel more psychic.  Unfortunately we have two more problematic aspects on that day.  The Moon in Pisces is squaring Mercury in 5 degrees of Gemini which can lead to some disagreements.  And the Sun in Gemini is forming an irritating inconjunct with Pluto in 28 degrees of Capricorn.  This aspect can trigger a mini-crisis that results in neurotic, destructive or obsessive behavior.  So this could be an emotional powder keg of a day.  Try not to take it out on Dad...

Venus in Taurus signs off with a trine to Pluto in 28 degrees of Capricorn on June 21.  This is one of the more fortunate aspects that Venus and Pluto can make, which is a good thing.  It adds depth and intensity to our feelings and relationships.  It's possible to experience inner growth and transformation in our relationships now.

Venus enters the sign of Gemini on June 22 and stays there until July 17, 2022.  When Venus is in Gemini, variety is the spice of life as we are more sociable, communicative and flirtatious.  Curiosity motivates us on romantic and social levels.  Attractions could begin on a mental level and words are powerful aphrodisiacs.  The shadow side of Venus in Gemini is fickleness, as we there are lots of choices available to us. If we meet someone new, we might tire of them quickly.  Since Venus also rules finances, we need to be mindful of careless spending at this time.

The Sun moves into Cancer for the Summer Solstice on June 21.  It's officially summer.  When the Sun is in Cancer, we are more self-protective and our nesting instinct takes over.  Emotions run deep because Cancer is a water sign.  The water signs of Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces will be very comfortable with this transit, as will the earth signs of  Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn.  But Libra and Aries will experience more emotional tension while the Sun is in Cancer.

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 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.  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!
