Venus Enters Libra Getting Very Busy and Pluto Stations Direct in Aquarius

 

Venus is getting ready to leave the mutable earth sign of Virgo and enter its happy place in Libra.  But before it does that, it will oppose retrograde Saturn in 27 degrees of Pisces on October 11.  Venus opposing Saturn can feel like a real buzzkill with its potential for delays and limitations in romance and finances.  It's not the best day for socializing (weekend be damned), so be prepared to spend some time alone and engage in practical matters.  A constructive use of this aspect is to pay off some debts.  Just remember that any feelings of depression are a temporary glitch...

Venus enters Libra on October 13 and remains there until November 6.  Venus rules Taurus and Libra, so it's a happy camper in these two signs.  Love is always more romantic and fun when Venus is in these two signs. Venus in Libra brings out our social side and we are more focused on achieving harmony in our relationships.  We also appreciate beauty and the art more now.  We might be inclined to spend more money too, so watch those credit cards carefully.

Pluto stations direct in 1 degree of Aquarius on October 13 too.  It has been retrograde since May 4, when it stationed retrograde in 2 degrees of Aquarius. If you have any planets or points in 0-3 degrees of the fixed signs of Aquarius, Taurus, Leo or Scorpio, you have been feeling this acutely.  It has been said that when Pluto first enters a sign, it can be quite traumatic and I don't think that anyone will disagree with that.  For example, when Pluto entered Leo in 1939, it ushered in World War II with leaders trying to take control in rather brutal and totalitarian ways.  Pluto entered Scorpio in 1983 as we dealt with the AIDS epidemic.  And who can forget Pluto entering Capricorn in 2008 with one of the worst financial crises in the history of the United States. Pluto in Aquarius has been squaring my natal Mercury in Scorpio and conjunct my progressed Sun in Aquarius, so I have been definitely been feeling it. But with Pluto direct we now have a cosmic green light to act on our plans for the future that we have been contemplating for the past five months.  Pluto in Aquarius is poised to transform technology, democracy and how community resources are distributed.  The collective is now ripe for a metamorphosis.  Power structures will be challenged but it can lead to a decentralization of them.  Freedom and non-conformity are central themes now.

Venus in Libra is very busy on the 14th trining both Uranus in Gemini and Pluto in Aquarius.  This is forming a Grand Air Trine, a configuration that I have natally and it is pretty sweet.  We can experience breakthroughs in love, money and transformation.  We should be feeling more support for love, finances and the ability to initiate changes.  Communication is flourishing, so take advantage of any opportunities that come your way.  That is the key benefiting from a Grand Trine - you must act or you will not be able to reap the benefits.

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:
