Mars Conjunct North Node in Pisces and a New Moon in Pisces

 

We have a big blast of Pisces energy still with us, despite the fact that Venus, Neptune and Saturn are in Aries.  On March 13, (Friday the 13th to boot), Mars and the North Node are conjunct in 8 degrees of Pisces.  This is big, folks, as in a karmic call to destiny.  It's time to meet your future.  Spiritual growth and compassion are motivating factors.  It's time to take some action and embark on a path to your future.  Intuition will be strong as we are drawn to pursue our soul's calling.  Trust those instincts.

Mars conjunct the North Node in Pisces can cause passions to flare, but it can also trigger confusion. so try not to act too impulsively.  Yes, it's important to take some action but try to realize that with all of this mutable water energy, including the Sun in Pisces, our emotions are quite fluid and literally all over the place.  

This day could be very emotional and intense.  Mark my words, it will have a fated quality. The last time that Mars and the North Node were conjunct in Pisces was in April 2007 in 15 degrees of Pisces.  This was a particularly challenging time for me personally.  The conjunction this time will also be happening in my 5th house, but this time around in 8 degrees of Pisces it is trining my South Node in Cancer and sextiling my North Node in Capricorn.  I am hoping for more support on this conjunction in terms of releasing the past and moving forward in a responsible way.  

The New Moon in Pisces occurs on March 18 in 28 degrees of Pisces.  A major theme of this New Moon is releasing and letting go of the past.  We are on the cusp of the astrological New Year, which begins on March 20 when the Sun enters Aries and Mercury goes direct in Pisces.  We are also processing the eclipses of February 17 in Aquarius and March 3 in Virgo. So you are not imagining it if you feel like a part of your life is coming to an end.  Our dreams will be more vivid in Pisces and our intuition is strong.  Just be mindful that the shadow side of Pisces is a tendency towards deception, lies and addiction.  The desire for escapism could be rampant.

What other aspects are in play on this New Moon?  Venus in Aries is squaring Jupiter in 15 degrees of Cancer (finally direct, thank God), which is generally pleasurable, but can lead to overindulgence and unrealistic expectations in relationships.  The Sun and Moon in Pisces will be forming supportive sextiles to Uranus in 28 degrees of Taurus, which can lead to stimulating encounters, pleasant surprises, and innovations that could very well lead to our being healthier and living longer.  Don't be afraid to try something new on this day.  This New Moon in Pisces falls in my 6th house, so I am definitely open to anything that improves my health or daily routines.  Mars in Pisces is also trining Jupiter in Cancer on the New Moon, which should motivate us to act with more compassion and empathy.  Just remember that you are getting the opportunity for a fresh start in whatever area of life by house placement this New Moon occurs, so plant the seeds.

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.

Mars Stations Direct in Cancer (FINALLY) and a New Moon in Pisces

 

Save the day of February 23.  On that day, Mars will station direct in 17 degrees of Cancer after having been retrograde since December 6, 2024 when it stationed in 6 degrees of Leo.  It seems like it has been longer, right?  I think it is pretty safe to say that people have been feeling quite frustrated in the last couple of months and getting nowhere fast.  It won't happen overnight, but the pressure will start to lessen and we will start to get more clarity as we get our mojo back. I wouldn't recommend taking any major action on that day, because planets are so intense on the day of a station (either direct or retrograde).  Just try to breathe, calm down and realize that the time to act is coming very soon. How will it play out for you: will you win the battle or just decide to walk away?

When Mars stations direct in Cancer, we could be feeling emotionally quite reactive and protective towards those we love. Or we could be feeling very combative too.  Mars stationed retrograde in Leo, where it is more comfortable and expressive, but it opposed Pluto in 1 degree of Aquarius on January 3, 2025 and it will oppose Pluto in 3 degrees of Aquarius again on April 27, 2025. Mars opposing Pluto screams power struggles. But Mars will remain in 17 degrees of Cancer until March 9, 2025 and won't get into Leo again until April 18.  Mars will clear its retrograde shadow in 6 degrees of Leo on May 3, 2025.

On February 27, 2025, we have a New Moon in 9 degrees of Pisces.  We actually have a plethora of planets in Pisces on this day: the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Saturn, Neptune and the North Node to boot.  Pisces is the most sensitive of all the water signs, so we can expect heightened emotions and the potential for feeling overwhelmed.  Under the auspices of a Pisces New Moon, we can feel ultra-sensitive and scattered, as well as vulnerable. Our psychic sensitivity is strong and we should be paying attention to our dreams. We are also leading into eclipse season, which kicks off on March 14 with a Lunar Eclipse in Virgo.

What else is going on astrologically with this New Moon in Pisces?  Neptune in 29 degrees of Pisces is conjunct the North Node in 27 degrees of Pisces, emphasizing our spirituality. Mercury in 23 degrees of Pisces is conjunct Neptune in 29 degrees of Pisces, which amplifies our intuition and strengthens communication.  Mercury in Pisces is also forming a supportive sextile to Uranus in 23 degrees of Taurus, so it is entirely possible to come up with an entirely different perspective or outlook on a situation. Don't be afraid to think outside of the box!  Jupiter in 12 degrees of Gemini is squaring the New Moon in 9 degrees of Pisces, which can feature a great deal of information circulating.  This will be an extremely sensitive and watery New Moon, for sure.  We can feel inspired or confused; you never know which the way those fish will swim.

Mars in Cancer will be trining Saturn in 20 degrees of Pisces on the New Moon too, which can set the stage for building a new future.  New Moons are about setting intentions, don't forget. Mars trining Saturn tends to give strength, ambition and perseverance to tackle difficult and demanding tasks.  Commitment is also quite appealing when Mars is trining Saturn, so it is auspicious for business dealings or making a personal relationship more permanent.

A Wild Week Ahead with Mercury and Neptune Meeting up in Pisces, Mars Squaring Uranus, Mercury Entering Aries and a New Moon in Pisces

 

Remember how I said that last week was indicating calm energy to start the month of March? Well, scratch that because this is one month that is coming in like a lamb and going out like a lion.  On March 8, Mercury and Neptune are conjunct 27 degrees of Pisces. This will definitely impact our thinking and communication in either a positive or negative manner.  We can be more psychic and intuitive, but the lower-level manifestation of this energy can involve deception, confusion and paranoia.  The fact that this conjunction occurs in the mutable water sign of Pisces can support the deceit theme but it can also deliver profound spiritual insight.  I have heard so many stories this week of people having their financial accounts hacked and false charges on their credit cards racked up, so I urge everyone to exercise extreme caution and vigilance.  I have a natal Mercury-Neptune conjunction in my 1st house, so I am no stranger to this energy. I am extremely psychic and sensitive to other people's vibrations and have tried to channel it constructively in my work.  But I am fully aware of its capacity to deceive and leave me vulnerable to feeling like a victim or martyr. And I discovered many years ago that I need to protect myself from the flood of emotions that surround me or risk emotional drowning.  White light became my best friend and protector.  Mercury conjunct Neptune can also be responsible for generating rumors and dissolving things that are no longer working for us. Situations or people could be fading from our lives.

On March 9, Mars in Aquarius will be exactly squaring Uranus in 19 degrees of Taurus.  Let's face it, most of us have been feeling the urge to break free from restrictions and rebel against authority that has been cramping down on us for some time. It has been building for the past week.  We are probably going to feel like acting rashly without regard for the outcome and this can lead to disruption and conflict.  It can also lead to accidents, so I urge everyone to be especially careful on this day. The big question is where it playing out for you.  For me, Mars in Aquarius is in my 5th house and Uranus in Taurus is in my 8th house.

On the same day, the Sun in Pisces is forming a supportive sextile to Uranus in 19 degrees of Taurus.  At least this aspect can deliver some pleasant surprises, as it is an easy and flowing influence that can encourages trying something new and exciting. But because Uranus is involved and we are still on the heels of the Mars-Uranus square, a little caution is still called for on this day to avoid any accidents or mishaps. We just might benefit from increased self-awareness.

Mercury is entering Aries as well on March 9.  And it will be in Aries until May 15 because guess what?  Mercury will be retrograde from April 1 to April 25.  When Mercury is in Aries, we are very assertive and tend to open up the lines of communication. We are inclined to say exactly what we are thinking and feeling.  We also have more courage to do so (Aries is ruled by the planet Mars) but we can also be more impulsive.  It can be a time when we communicate in a very blunt manner and make quick decisions.  A lot of important news could be forthcoming with Mercury in Aries for this extended period of time.

All of this leads up to a Super New Moon in 20 degrees of Pisces on March 10, 2024.  It is a Super Moon because it is so close to the earth. And it is the doorway to eclipse season that officially commences on March 25 with a Lunar Eclipse in Libra that will impact relationships in a big way. This will be a very emotional New Moon infused with a jolt of creativity and a desire to launch our dreams.  This New Moon is also conjunct Neptune in 27 degrees of Pisces, so I especially encourage you to visualize what you want and plant those seeds. Mercury in Aries is also forming a supportive sextile to Pluto in 1 degree of Aquarius on the New Moon, which will add more depth and intensity to our thinking and conversations.  And it can reveal some big secrets.

On March 11, Venus enters Pisces until April 5. Venus is exalted in the sign of Pisces, so it is definitely a happy camper here.  When Venus is in Pisces, we are more compassionate, empathetic and capable of unconditional love.  But emotions can be all over the place, as Pisces is the mutable water sign, after all.  Don't forget to set boundaries in relationships or you could wind up feeling like a martyr.  This is a highly spiritual placement for Venus and our creativity can also flourish.  We should also remember to use this energy to forgive ourselves as well as others.  Since the planet Venus also pertains to finances, try not to make any major economic decisions now because it is far too easy to be gullible now.  

I am pleased to announce that I have another article published on Powerfortunes.com about Profection Years in Astrology. You can read it on:https://www.powerfortunes.com/topics-opinions/profectionyears.php.  It turns out that there are definite themes present in each year of our life and they tend to repeat.  I like to think of them like Jupiter Returns, because they occur every twelve years.

Pisces Season is Here with the Sun and a New Moon But Venus is Moving on into Aries as Mercury Gets Busy

 

The Sun is about to move into one of my favorite signs, Pisces.  It's no secret that I love the sign of Pisces because it is a water sign and trines all of my Scorpio and Cancer planets.  It is a relief for me because the Sun in Aquarius was squaring my Scorpio planets, which wasn't exactly a fun time. The Sun enters Pisces on February 18 and it ushers in a time when the vibe is more dreamy, visionary and spiritual.  Our focus is turned towards having more empathy, compassion and understanding for others. We have a more altruistic perspective and can hopefully act in a kinder fashion. Pisces is a mutable water sign and is inherently quite sensitive.  But because Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac, it can also represent a time of endings, release and healing.  I personally find it to be highly creative as well, perhaps because it is ruled by Neptune.  It's important to remember the Neptune influence, because the shadow side of Neptune is escapism, addiction and victimization.  

On February 19, Venus in Pisces forms an exact sextile to Pluto in 29 degrees of Capricorn.  Venus is exalted in Pisces and when it forms a supportive sextile to Pluto, it can bring opportunities for a deeper, more intense level of loving as well as endings and adjustments.  Whenever a planet is in 29 degrees of a sign, it is considered the anaretic degree and it is extremely potent.  I have my natal Jupiter in 29 degrees and am looking forward to having Venus trine it, but having Pluto oppose it is a mixed bag.  We shall see...

We have another Super New Moon in 1 degree of Pisces on February 20, 2023.  This just means that the Moon will be in its closest approach to the earth.  This will be an extremely emotional New Moon and, spoiler alert, it has the potential to feel overwhelming.  I wouldn't be surprised if this New Moon brings some of us to tears.  But it can also help us to go inward, meditate more deeply and seek inner peace.  It can inspire unconditional love as well.  Mercury in Aquarius is sextiling Chiron in 13 degrees of Aries, which can reinforce the healing theme of a Pisces New Moon.  But just be mindful that the shadow side of a New Moon in Pisces can also bring flooding and deceit in relationships.

Venus moves into Aries on the day of the New Moon.  Venus will be in the cardinal fire sign of Aries until March 16, 2023.  When Venus is in Aries, love will become more spontaneous and direct as we are caught up in the thrill of the chase.  We also tend to be more blunt in our approach as our needs take center stage.  We are very self-focused, which is a marked difference from Venus in Pisces, which is extremely sensitive to the needs of others.  We tend to live in the moment and crave new experiences and adventure. Venus is not the happiest camper in the sign of Aries.

Mercury in Aquarius is squaring Uranus in 15 degrees of Taurus on February 21.  This aspect will bring excitement and changes to our daily lives, but it can also deliver misunderstandings and arguments in our communications.  Anxiety and stress are definitely on the table.  I have a natal Mercury-Uranus square and I can attest to its quality of nervous energy.

But on February 22, 2023, Mercury in Aquarius will be trining Mars in 16 degrees of Gemini.  So there is some relief because it will increase our mental energy and powers of concentration.  We are definitely more persuasive and if any damage occurred on the previous day, this aspect can help to mitigate the damage.

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.  An astrology reading makes a very thoughtful gift. 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?

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 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

A Spiritually Enlightening New Moon in Pisces that Comes with a Reality Check

 

Pisces season is officially here and we have a New Moon in 12 degrees of Pisces coming up on March 2, 2022.  The Sun moved into Pisces on February 8, when I tweeted:

The energy totally shifts today when the Sun enters Pisces and we are motivated to dream, empathize and be more compassionate towards others. Sensitivity rules. #astrology

— Linda Simons (@danceofphoenix) February 18, 2022

Now we all know that New Moons are a time when you should plant the seeds for new intentions.  A New Moon in Pisces has especially creative and spiritual energy.  The themes of truth and freedom are added to the spiritual vibe with that Moon conjunct Jupiter in 14 degrees of Pisces.  It's a literal spiritual upgrade.  By all means engage in a ritual for setting those intentions on this New Moon. This New Moon falls in my 5th house, so I fully plan to make the most of it. But we could also be dealing with highly active and vivid dreams and the potential danger of floods.  The weather this past week has been vacillating like crazy--on February 22, we had temperatures in the 60's on the East Coast and now we are dealing with a snow storm.  The other themes that this New Moon include are health and service to others. These are traditional Piscean issues.  I hate to say it, but whenever Jupiter is involved, there tends to be news about COVID-19 surfacing.  Are we going to hear about yet another variant?  Or will Jupiter just bring news of more scandals emerging? 

There is also a wild card aspect with this New Moon in Pisces because it forms a supportive sextile to Uranus in 11 degrees of Taurus.  Our intuition will be strong on this day so trust your instincts to guide you to finding new solutions to old problems and being more open to the future. Exciting events are likely and we could meet some interesting people.  I personally think that this aspect exists to remind us that change is good...

But there is always something that complicates an otherwise delightful New Moon.  Mercury and Saturn are conjunct in 19 degrees of Aquarius on March 2, 2022.  The combination of Mercury and Saturn is a major reality check indicating that we could be hearing some somber, depressing or distressing news on that day.  There might even be some restrictions to free speech. What is Saturn without some form of restriction? Communication could be on the critical side, but if there is a bright side to this aspect it is that it does tend to be pragmatic and practical, so it might result in some problems being solved.  Hold onto that thought... 

On March 3, we have a real powerhouse aspect in play.  Mars and Venus in Capricorn will conjunct Pluto in 27 degrees of Capricorn.  This is very confrontational energy that provides drama, passion and romance to the mix.  And of course, in the United States, we are undergoing our Pluto Return. Something tells me this won't be a quiet day.  This ménage-a-trois of Mars, Venus and Pluto in Capricorn is forming an exact opposition to my Uranus in Cancer in my 10th house, as well as opposing my Jupiter in Cancer, squaring my Neptune in Libra in my 1st house and forms a closing conjunction to my Chiron in Capricorn in my 4th house.  So my cardinal T-square will really be feeling the effects of this one... 

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?
