Save the
day of October 18 because two more planets will be leaving the retrograde posse
that has been our way of life since late April.
Pluto stationed direct in 24 degrees of Capricorn on October 6 and
Saturn stationed direct in 6 degrees of Aquarius on October 10. On that day I tweeted:
I think
that it is a pretty safe bet to say that most people will be absolutely
ecstatic when Mercury stations direct in 10 degrees of Libra on October
18. Mercury has been officially
retrograde since September 26, but many of us felt its influence since it
entered its retrograde shadow period on the 7th of September. I can personally attest to the fact that it
has been a grueling Mercury retrograde, where everything that could go wrong
did. Retrograde Mercury in Libra did no favors to relationships. Communication, transportation and our electronic
devices should start to see major improvements now. Mercury leaves its retrograde shadow on
November 2, but at least now there is light at the end of the tunnel. And there
is hope that we will be better equipped to get on the same page on the many
issues that are dividing us.
Speaking of
hope, we also have Jupiter stationing direct in 22 degrees of Aquarius on
October 18. Jupiter has been retrograde
since June 20, when it stationed retrograde in 2 degrees of Pisces. If you are missing that Jupiter in Pisces
vibe, don’t fret because Jupiter will re-enter Pisces on December 28,
2021. With Jupiter being direct, we can
look forward to growth, expansion and more freedom. This will be a very happy day, made even more
so by the fact that Mars in Libra will also be trining Jupiter in
Aquarius. Feel free to act on your
intentions to make your dreams come true on this day.
On October
20, we have a Full Moon in 27 degrees of Aries.
The Full Moon in Aries is frequently referred to as the Harvest Moon and
this one will be ending a cycle that began on the New Moon in Aries of April 11
in 22 degrees of Aries. Try to remember
if you started anything new back in April and if so, you should be ready to
complete that endeavor now and reap your own personal harvest. The Full Moon in Aries is squaring Pluto in
Capricorn, which can contribute to a sense of rebirth as we feel that things
are coming together. The Moon is also opposing Mars in Libra, so it ups the
energy level but can make us prone to heightened emotions and outbursts. There is a great deal of cardinal energy
involved with this Full Moon, as the Sun, Mars, Mercury and Mars are in Libra,
the Moon is in Aries and Pluto is in Capricorn.
This all adds up to action and let’s face it, cardinal signs love to
initiate action. The Sun in Libra is
also trining Jupiter in Aquarius, which adds to the theme of expanding your
visions for the future. The Moon in
Aries is also forming a supportive sextile to Jupiter, which is extremely
beneficial. I wouldn’t be the least surprised if there were some serious
economic implications globally as a result of this Full Moon. I was watching Pam Gregory earlier this week
and I loved what she had to say about putting your energy into what you want to
create for the future, and not wasting it by pouring your energy into life
support of the old system.
There will
definitely be combative energy with this Full Moon because Aries is ruled by
Mars, and Mars is in opposition to the Moon.
Don’t count Pluto in Capricorn out of the Full Moon equation either
because it is squaring the Full Moon, so we could see some elimination of old
structures accompanied by intense protests, upsets and extreme emotions.
Obviously, anyone with planets in the cardinal signs of Aries, Cancer, Libra and
Capricorn will feel this Full Moon more intensely. There goes my cardinal T-Square involving my
Neptune in 26 degrees of Libra, Uranus in 27 degrees of Cancer, Jupiter in 29
degrees of Cancer and Chiron in 24 degrees of Capricorn. The only cardinal energy I don’t have in my
chart is Aries, and this Full Moon in Aries will be very busy triggering my
cardinal placements. I might be in line
for some kind of epiphany, especially with its opposition to my natal Neptune
in Libra.
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. I have recently
added a new offering to my astrological services menu. 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?

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.

The coronavirus outbreak is causing me
to increase the number of distant Reiki sessions I do because people are
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. The Delta strain of the virus is very serious and we need
to remain vigilant with our masks, even if we are fully vaccinated. 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!
