The Aquarius Party Continues as Mercury Joins the Fray and Uranus Acts Up

 

Aquarius season is officially here with both the Sun and Pluto in Aquarius. We should definitely be feeling the need to find freedom and let our freak flag fly. The ruling planet of Aquarius, Uranus, even did its part by stationing direct on January 27 after a five-month nap.  On that day I posted:

The major astrological event of today is Uranus stationing direct after being retrograde since late August. All of the planets are now direct and we can proceed with implementing change. #astrology

Mercury will be entering Aquarius during the coming week, but it has a final aspect in the sign of Capricorn that will impact us before it leaves.  On February 2, Mercury in Capricorn will form a supportive sextile to Neptune in 26 degrees of Pisces.  Pay attention to your dreams with this one, engage in some meditation as insights can be gleaned and let your creativity flow.  This is one of the more delightful aspects of the month, so enjoy it.

Mercury enters Aquarius on February 5 and stays there until February 23. We will definitely be primed for thinking outside of the box.  Originality, innovation and eccentricity are calling the shots as we hunger for knowledge.  Mercury wastes no time getting busy when it conjuncts Pluto in Aquarius about an hour after its entrance into Aquarius.  This will add another layer of intensity to communication.  It can also be a time of psychological analysis and getting to the root of problems.  But please be mindful that there is the potential for mental power struggles...  After all, Aquarius is the fixed air sign and it can be stubborn.

Venus in Capricorn will be trining Uranus in 19 degrees of Taurus on February 7.  Uranus is really feeling its oats these days now that it is direct and this aspect will give us the urge to try something new in love or with our finances.  We want to break free of any restrictions in relationships.  It's possible to meet new people now and a financial windfall could be in the offing because this is a trine, so any surprises that are delivered should be pleasant.  Trust me on this one because I have a natal trine involving Venus in Scorpio and Uranus in Cancer.

But Uranus kicks into high gear on February 8 when the Sun in Aquarius is exactly squaring Uranus in 19 degrees of Taurus. Mark my words, this is not going to be a day with a peaceful easy feeling, to paraphrase that old Eagles song.  It will be characterized by a quite uneasy feeling, anxiety and uncertainty as we sense impending change upon us.  We are aware that change is inevitable, but the issue is that we don't know how or when it will occur.  This is a very volatile aspect that can lead to unpredictable behavior and ego conflicts.  It is also leading into the New Moon in 20 degrees of Aquarius that will occur on February 9.  Uranus will be a major player in that New Moon because the Moon will be squaring it.  I will cover that more in next week's blog post.

I would also like to announce that I have had a second article published about Lunar Phases on PowerFortunes.com.  I posted about it on January 16:

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, 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 also wanted to note that in an ironic twist of fate, one of the latest variants of COVID is EG.5, with a nickname of Eris.  Sound familiar--the Goddess of Discord?  Apparently, COVID cases and hospitalizations are on the rise...

I urge everyone to engage in massive amounts of self-care and follow the protective measures of washing your hands frequently, avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth, wearing a face mask when necessary and staying home if you are sick. And get a vaccine. The newest vaccine is available and I encourage you to get it to protect yourself. I repeat, you do not want to get this virus! I speak from personal experience and consider myself very fortunate to have survived Coronavirus twice. Stay safe and healthy, everyone! 

Astrology is a powerful tool that helps you navigate challenging times and alerts you to opportunity periods. Get a reading with me and experience the healing process. #astrology
