Leo Season is Officially Here as the Sun Enters Leo, a New Moon in Leo and Jupiter Stations Retrograde


 


The season of Leo is officially here on July 22 when the Sun enters Leo at 4:07 pm.  Mercury entered Leo on July 19, when I tweeted:
The Sun rules Leo, so it is extremely comfortable in this sign.  It is a playful, exuberant time when we can let our inner child out to play and have some fun.  It's no coincidence that many people take vacations while the Sun is in Leo. We feel proud, outgoing and generous.  Whatever house Leo falls in your chart is where you will shine and attract attention.  It starts out in my 10th house of career and public standing and then moves into my 11th house of friendships, group associations and long-term goals on August 11.  But we do need to be mindful of the shadow side of the Sun in Leo: a tendency to be vain and self-centered.

On July 28 we have a juicy New Moon in 5 degrees of Leo.  A New Moon in Leo has a very creative and potentially romantic vibe that affords us the opportunity to set new intentions in whatever area of life it falls in your natal chart.  If it falls in your 5th or 7th house the theme of romance and a fresh start in love is doubly emphasized.  If you are not sure where this New Moon falls in your chart, please consider getting an astrological reading with me.

This New Moon is not making a lot of aspects, however.  Mercury in 18 degrees of Leo is exactly squaring Uranus in 18 degrees of Taurus, which could play out in surprising news involving communication and travel.  I wouldn't be surprised if technology factors into this New Moon quite prominently and delivers some breakthroughs.  I have this aspect natally and I can attest to the fact that it is a bid of a wild card. The New Moon in Leo is also trining Jupiter in 8 degrees of  Aries, which should put us in a good mood and make it easier to share our feelings, express more generosity and be inclined to socialize.

Jupiter in Aries is also stationing retrograde at 4:37 pm on the day of the New Moon.  Jupiter will make one last pit stop in Pisces on October 28, station direct in 28 degrees of  Pisces on November 23 and return to Aries on December 20, 2022.  When Jupiter is retrograde, we could experience inflation and some conflicts.  It is inclined towards spiritual introspection and reflection.  Jupiter is also associated with finding the truth and you might discover that your truth differs from other people.  Look to where Jupiter is transiting in your chart.  It is in my 6th house and I know that I need to be reflecting on my health and daily routines.  When Jupiter is retrograde, you pretty much need to make your own luck and act on the inspirations that you receive when Jupiter goes direct.  Jupiter retrograde is not as bad as Mercury retrograde, but it still has the effect of slowing you down somewhat to reevaluate how you want to grow and expand in your life.  This can be a very good thing because it forces you to examine what hasn't been working for you so that you can implement new strategies and achieve success when Jupiter is direct.

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.

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.

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. July 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!
