It’s a month of Eclipses! Here we go!!! On June 5^th we have a FULL MOON LUNAR ECLIPSE in Sagittarius. This is considered 3 times more powerful than a typical Full Moon.

It is about endings, achievements, breakthroughs, finalization, or celebrations focused on travel, legal, political, religious, distance, adventure, educational, media, marketing, philosophical, wedding, or ceremonial matters. Key Trigger Days for this Eclipse are: May 8^th, May 31^st, June 1^st, JUNE 5^th, June 9^th, and July 3^rd. So, look for something culminating one way or the other with these topics around these dates.

Mercury then begins his Retrograde in the sign Cancer on the 18^th and will remain in Retrograde through July 12^th. We enter the Pre-Shadow on June 2^nd and won’t be out of the Post-Shadow until July 26^th. So, we start to get an idea of what we will be slowing down on or rethinking, reviewing, releasing, rekindling, or reworking with our home, real estate deals, moves, renovations, parents, roommates, or family as soon as June 2^nd and through the pre-shadow period. We then head into the Retrograde period where we are actually returning to the past to give something another shot or releasing something current or reworking our situation currently going on with our home, real estate deals, moves, renovations, family, parents, or roommates. Then, once the Retrograde ends on July 12^th we will be moving ahead again but it will take a couple weeks to get past the stuff we’ve already been involved in as we move forward. Remember Mercury Retrogrades are a do-over and a chance to talk about things or revisit agreements, sales, writing, interviews, offers, or decisions about it. It can also involve siblings, neighbors, vehicles, electronics, short trips, moves, or local activities about it.

To emphasize this focus of the Mercury Retrograde, we have the Sun entering this territory of home, real estate deals, moves, renovations, family, parents, and roommates on the 20^th for a 30 day tour and the NEW MOON SOLAR ECLIPSE about these topics kicking off on the 21^st. Wow! So, the Sun puts a spotlight on you and your interests with these matters and may involve your name or title, image or brand, body or physical involvement, or personal needs in the story. It’s a time to show up and get more personally or physically involved in these interests. The Solar Eclipse is 3 times for powerful than a typical New Moon and is about launching forward into something brand new or helping you to take a current situation into a new direction or next level. You may eclipse out what is over or blocking this forward momentum as part of the story but it really is about a new beginning in some way. Key Trigger Dates for this Eclipse are: May 24^th, June 17^th, JUNE 21^st, June 25^th, or July 19^th. Do note that you have 2 weeks of momentum here starting on the 21^st to initiate or respond to new or next level opportunities in the area of home, family, parents, roommates, moves, renovations, or real estate deals.

The great inspiration, the great deception, the veil between worlds, the magic, the spell, the artistic, romantic or spiritual, the secrets, hidden agendas or spying, the institutions, or the dreams. Neptune is about these surreal and strangely other-worldly matters and he is shifting gears this month, kicking off a Retrograde on the 23^rd that will last until November 28^th. So, around this time of the shift you may notice a new direction opening up about art, romance, spirituality, institutions, secrets, investigations, rest and recuperation, dreams, or research. Things may slow down a bit or you may decide it’s time to review, revisit something past here or release something or rework an ongoing situation, getting it figured out by the end of November. The 23^rd as this powerful outer energy shifts gears can bring all kinds of powerful dreams or signs from the universe, secrets to the surface or inspiration and imagination to bear. It’s not a good time to imbibe substances or alcohol or do something devious since it will likely come back on you in a powerful way up ahead. Overall, it’s a do-over that helps you figure this stuff out in the months ahead.

Venus began her Retrograde on May 13^th and spends the bulk of June in Retrograde so you are still in the do-over phase with love, income or beauty needs and what is happening about it via talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, short trips, local activities, siblings, neighbors, vehicles, electronics, or decisions until the 25^th. At this point the Venus Retrograde ends and you shift gears, ready to move forward again, having figured out what was needed to be reworked, released or rekindled over the past weeks or being done with any slow-down it caused you.

Two very powerful stories get underway at the end of June so I’m going to tell you what I can about both. First, Mars is entering his own sign, Aries, for the first time in a couple years on the 27^th. In his own sign he is the most powerful he ever is, which means everyone will be feeling more passion, motivation, courage, anger, fighting spirit, and activity than they have in some time. This is GO TIME, big time and Mars is not going to make this happen in his typical 6+ weeks through a sign but over the next 6+ months! This is due to his upcoming Retrograde Sept 9-Nov 13^th which will slow him down and then take him back over degrees he had recently crossed moving forward. Mars will not exit Aries until Jan 6^th, 2021! This is really bringing heat to the fire and getting everyone active based on ego needs, their bodies, image, brand, name, title, or involvement in situations. Aries is a Cardinal sign which means it initiates action and leads so, yeah, so much is going to happen now.

Second, the 2^nd Jupiter/Pluto conjunction occurs 3 days later on the 30^th. The first conjunction was on April 4^th, we are now at the mid-point or turning point with this powerful merger of energies and the new beginning it is giving everyone through it’s combination of Pluto: destruction, rebirth, power, control, financial matters, sexual interests, reproduction, divorce, birth, death, obsessions, underground matters, the criminal world, jealousy, manipulations, purging of things, transformational possibilities, and third-party situations, and Jupiter: travel, distant, foreign, global, educational, media, marketing, legal, wedding, religious, political, or philosophical interests, and personal growth, happiness or prosperity. Something is shifting gears, we get over a hump, turn a corner, and take the next step in this setting the stage for this new beginning. The final conjunction of these planets will happen on Nov 12^th at which point we will be on our way.

One last heads up; Mars will start to square Pluto as soon as July 21^st and will build in intensity with this frictional square through Aug 29^th, so the world stage is going to heat up considerably as things come to a head here and in our own personal life it may be this period that really is about our greatest push for what it is we are trying to achieve or our great challenge to overcome. For a preview of what this may be about watch June 18-24 as the outer planets are activated in conjunction with the US natal Pluto and the January activation between Saturn and Pluto, major and intense changes or serious topics arrive now. Here we go.

ARIES:

A powerful Lunar Eclipse on the 5^th is about what is ending or wrapping up, being celebrated or achieved, or in some other way coming to a head with your travel plans or situations at a distance, any legal situations or educational pursuits, your media or marketing projects, weddings or other ceremonies, or religious or political interests. Emotions may be a bit higher at this time and a woman may be key to what is climaxing here for you. Note the trigger dates given in the intro above to know which days are critical with this peak scenario.

There is going to be a lot going on with your home or family this month as well, Aries. This may be about your house or living situation, the roommates or parents, your family dynamic or emotional needs, a move, renovation or real estate deal, an interest in history or ancestry, or your sense of security that is gobbling up so much activity. Here’s how it breaks down: Mercury is going to Retrograde over these topics starting on the 18^th and will be slowing you down or getting you to rethink, release, rekindle, or rework something here via the talks or meetings you have about it, your sales, offers, writing, interviews, or decisions about it. You’ll have until July 12^th to figure it out and want to be in a bit of flux as you weigh your options. The Sun will start spotlighting this arena on the 20^th and do so for the next 30 days. This is your cue to start showing up and getting more personally or physically involved in these interests. It can mean you are signing your name to something or your title, image, body, brand, or personal needs are more intertwined with what is going on here. Finally, the second Eclipse occurs in this zone of home, family, real estate deals, moves, renovations, history, ancestry, roommates, and parents, and it is a New Moon Solar Eclipse on the 21^st. This is 3 times more powerful for helping you to launch into something brand new or to take what you are already doing in these matters into that next chapter. You’ll have 2 weeks of momentum here and may eclipse something out as part of this new thing getting underway.

Neptune is going to Retrograde on the 23^rd and shift gears with what has been going on with isolation, depression, inspiration, magic, psychic abilities, romantic interludes, artistic projects, spiritual interests, secrets, deceptions, addictions, escapism, institutions, research, or investigations over the months ahead. It’s time to slow down a bit and rework, release or rekindle past or ongoing stories here so have an eye out for what is coming or going or turning in direction around this time.

Venus kicked off her Retrograde back on May 13^th and spends most of June in that backtracking phase. She is about love, income or beauty interests and for your sign has asked you to slow down and revisit, release or rework something local or via short trips, your talks, meetings or interviews, sales, writing or agreements, or with siblings, neighbors, moves, vehicles, or electronics. She’s at work over decisions you’ve made, others have made for you or that you need to make about one of her interests so do take your time with it and be open to listen, talk, sign, sell, or make a choice as you figure this out. On the 25^th Venus Retrograde ends and she is ready to start moving forward again, having given it all enough time, so plan on shifting gears yourself with love, income or beauty choices around this time.

The months’ not winding down though, Aries, because on the 27^th your ruler, Mars, is heading into your sign where he is going to travel, not for his typical 6+ weeks but for 6+ months!!! This is due to super-charge you in ways you haven’t seen in some time. This should spark your passions and get you more physically active in passionate pursuits, get you motivated about what you want to do about your name, title, body, image, brand, identity, or desires, as well as give you more fighting spirit or angry moments, something you’ll definitely have to keep an eye on so it doesn’t hinder the mountain of energy at your disposal for good right now. Mars here should give you more courage to go for what you want. The way this plays out is forward motion now, then slow down and review, release, rekindle, or rework past or ongoing interests Sept 9-Nov 13, and then forward motion again until Mars exits your sign on Jan 6^th, 2021.

The second Jupiter/Pluto conjunction then occurs on the 30^th, the first having been on April 4^th, the final one arriving Nov 12^th. So, you are at the mid-point, turning-point of this story getting underway about your life direction, major personal goals, career, status, fame, reputation, or dealings with bosses, parents, judges, directors, teachers, or other authority figures. Jupiter is about any travel, distance, relocation at a distance, foreign, legal, educational, media, marketing, wedding, religious, or political influences you might have in this story, while Pluto is about the loan, debt, inheritance, taxes, insurance, alimony, settlements, or other financial interests, or the sexual, reproductive, mortality, divorce, or third-party situations in the story. So look at turning a corner here near this date. On another note, Mars in your sign is going to move into squaring the outer planets from July 21-Aug 29 so this period will be at the height of activity, passion or anger about what is going on between your needs or involvement and this story with Jupiter and Pluto, pace yourself Aries!

TAURUS:

June starts out with a bang as the energies are gathering around a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on the 5^th. This is in your house of loans, debt, inheritance, taxes, insurance, investments, alimony, child support, royalties, a partner’s money, or some other financial topics, or about your sexual interests, reproductive needs, a birth, death, divorce, or third-party situation playing out. Emotions are going to be high for everyone as this packs 3 times the punch with its power to bring things to a peak. Expect something here to be wrapping up, ending, achieved, or celebrated as part of the culmination. Look at the trigger dates given at the top here for key dates to pay attention to in this peak situation.

There is also going to be quite a lot going on with your focus on talks, meetings, interviews, sales, writing, short trips, local activities, siblings, neighbors, vehicles, electronics, offers, or decisions, thanks to your 3^rd house being lit up this month. This starts with Mercury Retrograding here on the 18^th and beginning to slow things down a bit or take you back over things to rethink, release, rekindle, or rework past or ongoing scenarios here. You’ll have until July 12^th with this do-over so take your time. You may start to get clues as to what this may be about as the shadow phase kicks in on June 2^nd. The Sun will then join this story on the 20^th and stay shining on these matters for the next 30 days. This is your cue to start showing up and getting more personally or physically involved with these interests or to get in there with your name, title, image, brand, body, or needs in some way while you stand out. Finally, the second Eclipse arrives on the 21^st and is a New Moon Solar Eclipse with these talks, offers, agreements, sales, writing, meetings, interviews, siblings, neighbors, vehicles, electronics, short trips, local activities, or decisions. So, at this point you have 3 times the powerful boost from the cosmos to launch into something new or take what you are doing into that next chapter. You may eclipse out what is blocking this next chapter as part of the new beginning here and whatever this is for you seems to hinge on home or property, moves or renovations, real estate deals or roommates, family or parents, or your emotional needs about it.

Neptune begins his Retrograde on the 23^rd which means something will be shifting when it comes to your friends, groups, the internet, astrology, charities, gatherings, aspirations, freedoms, or original projects. He will be taking you back over some things here from now through Nov 28^th so slow down a bit and review, release, rekindle, or rework something past or ongoing in these areas. Neptune themes of artistry, spirituality, romance, dreams, imagination, addictions, secrets, institutions, or research may play into it for you.

Venus started her Retrograde last month on May 13^th so most of June is also in Retrograde with her topics of love, income or beauty. She is asking you to slow down to rekindle, release or rework something and playing out in areas of earnings, purchases, possessions, or products for you. This will finally wrap on the 25^th when Venus goes Direct again and you shift gears into forward motion having figured out what you needed to over the weeks past.

Mars is about to fire up some interesting areas of life for you, Taurus, which could be really good or really challenging, depending on what you do with it. On the 27^th Mars heads into your 12^th house which on the positive side is the house of imagination and inspiration, art, film, music, poetry, romance, spirituality, institutions, and research. On the challenging side however, this house is known for doing things that self-sabotage, are escapist, addictive, have boundary issues, are deceptive, or secretive, and are tied to karmic lessons. So, this is a real grasshopper moment for you because having Mars here is going to fire you up big time and he is not here for his typical 6+ weeks but for 6+ months, until Jan 6, 2021. You can choose to use it to get way more passionate, driven and active about the positive stuff or lean into the anger, frustration or activities that take you into the challenging stuff. And I’m telling you all of this because this is 100% your choice, it’s in the sign of ego, personal interests and activity so you will activate which way this goes. Two heads up; Mars is here so long because he Retrogrades Sept 9-Nov 13 in the middle of this story, so you are moving it forward, then slowing and reviewing, releasing, rekindling, or reworking past or ongoing stories, and then moving forward again. Second, Mars is going to move into a square to Jupiter/Saturn/Pluto outer planets between July 21-Aug 29 so this period may either fire things up to maximum volume when you are pushing extra hard to make something happen or be an amplified time of challenge, so again, lean into the good stuff here Taurus!

Finally, Jupiter and Pluto are at their second of 3 meetings on the 30^th, the first having been on April 4^th, the last coming on Nov 12^th. So, you are at a turning point or mid-point with your travel, distant, legal, educational, media, marketing, ceremonial, religious, or political interests. It’s been about looking at your growth, happiness or prosperity needs in the equation and what is going on with shared interests, finances, sex, reproduction, the purging of things, going deeper, a birth, death, divorce, or any third-party matters in the equation. Something shifts now!

GEMINI:

The month kicks off with Full Moon Lunar Eclipse peaks with partners, clients, specialists, representatives, opponents, competitors, or advocates by the 5^th. This may involve legal or educational needs with them or be about travel, distant, media, wedding, marketing, religious, or political themes with them that are coming to a head. This is emotionally charged, powerful achievements, wrap-ups, endings, or celebrations with them. Check the dates I give in the general overview above for when this is at it’s peak besides this day.

The other area that is getting a whole lot of attention for you this month is your zone of income, purchases, possessions, and products. It kicks off with Mercury Retrograde beginning on the 18^th over these topics. Mercury will slow things down a bit and ask you to review, release, rekindle, or rework some past or ongoing situations here. It’s a do-over so take your time while things are in flux and watch out for mix-ups, breakdowns or miscommunications about it. By the 20^th the Sun moves into this territory spotlighting your interests with income, purchases, possessions, or products. This is your cue to show up and get more involved on a personal or physical level about it. You may be tying your name, title, image, brand, body, or needs into the story now over the next 30 days. Finally, the New Moon Solar Eclipse arrives on the 21^st and is about these topics, giving you a very powerful boost forward over the next 2 weeks. It may help you start something new or take a current interest here into that next chapter. Remember this is 3 times more powerful than a typical New Moon so make the most of it.

Neptune has been moving forward with your artistic, romantic, spiritual, institutional, hidden, secretive, addictive, or research interests over these last months with a focus on your goals here, your career, status, fame, or dealings with authority figures like a boss, parent, judge, director, or other higher-up. On the 23^rd Neptune Retrogrades and over the months ahead, until Nov 28^th, you should see some of this slow down a bit or a period when you can review, release, rekindle, or rework something ongoing or past here.

Venus Retrograded back on May 13^th so much of June is still about your do-over with this Retrograde. Venus is about love, income or beauty and is in this Retrograde in your sign so much of this is about redoing something about your image, body, brand, name, title, or needs in the equation. You may be revisiting the past, reworking the ongoing situation or releasing something. Venus ends her Retrograde on June 25^th and at this point you should be ready to move ahead again.

Mars is moving into your zone of friends, associates, groups, the internet, astrology, charities, gatherings, aspirations, freedoms, or original projects on the 27^th. He is not going to be spending his typical 6+ weeks here but will be here for 6+ months, until Jan 6^th, 2021. So, this gives you so much more energy, motivation, passion, anger, fighting, or action going on in these areas. It’s here longer because Mars will Retrograde from Sept 9^th-Nov 13^th so you move ahead with things now, then slow and rework, release or rekindle something, then move ahead again. Do note Mars will be squaring the outer planets and really firing things up at their height between July 21-Aug 29. Make it happen!

Finally, the 2^nd of 3 Jupiter/Pluto conjunctions is occurring on the 30^th. This means you are at the midpoint or turning point of this story that began on April 4^th and ends on Nov 12^th. The focus here is on your financial scenario, sex life, reproductive needs, a birth, death or divorce, or any third-party interests. Jupiter is about any growth here or something over the top in place or what is going on with travel, legal, educational, media, marketing, ceremonial, religious, or political interests in the mix. Pluto is about the power, control, deconstruction and rebirth of the situation. So, watch what is shifting gears now.

CANCER:

June opens with energy building to the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on the 5^th. This is an emotionally charged time when something is climaxing with your work or health, pets or paperwork, or hired help or co-workers. You may be ending something or wrapping up projects here or you may garner some attention or recognition about it or achieve goals and celebrate here. This is considered 3 times as powerful as a typical Full Moon and you could be eclipsing something out at this point as part of this peak. Note the key dates I give above in the general overview for dates to watch around this one.

The other area of focus this month is on you, Cancer! This may be a month where your body, image, brand, name, title, or personal needs are front and center, or it could be that others are making you the center of attention. It starts with Mercury Retrograde in your sign on the 18^th. It would seem it’s time to review something about yourself or your needs. You have until July 12^th to release, rekindle or rework something past or present involving your body, image, brand, name, title, or needs or to physically put yourself there to see what happens. You are in flux now so take care with mix-ups, miscommunications or faulty electronics or mechanicals in your endeavors and take your time, you’ll figure this out by the time Mercury is back in forward motion. Next, the Sun moves into your sign on the 20^th which is about spotlighting you and your interests over the next 30 days. This allows you to shine and to make it about you by showing up and getting more involved in moving things forward. Finally, the NEW MOON SOLAR ECLIPSE is in your sign and occurs on the 21^st. So, something is wrapping up, ending, achieved, or celebrated about you, your body, image, brand, name, title, or needs. Note the trigger dates for this eclipse at the top of the article so you know when the peaks will be and aim high Cancer!

Neptune is like a fog that is hard to see through, the magic and inspiration that sparks the muse and our fantasy life, the delusion and escapism that fuels addictions and isolating tendencies, karmic past life ties that thread through romantic matters, the art, film, music, and poetry that lift us up, the secrets and deceptions that bring us down, and our ability to research, investigate or deal with institutions. He has been taking all of this through your 9^th house where he has either inspired or tested you, depending on which of these themes he’s brought, but he has stayed true to focusing on 9^th house matters for you so let’s look at them. The 9^th house is about travel or distant situations, legal matters or educational pursuits, weddings or other ceremonies, media or marketing plans, or philosophy, religion or politics that impact our belief systems. So, he’s been bringing so much of his themes to these areas over the past months and now, on the 23^rd, he is going to start his Retrograde. At this point something shifts and you start to head back over old ground to review, release, rekindle, or rework something. You’ll have Neptune in Retrograde and the time you need to figure this out until he goes Direct again on Nov 28^th.

Venus went Retrograde back on May 13^th and so most of June is also in her Retrograde. She is about love, income or beauty and what is going on behind the scenes, in secret, with getaways, isolation, escapism, inspiration, what’s going on romantically, artistically or spiritually, with your research or institutions, or via recharging your batteries about it. So, it’s been and remains a do-over with releasing, rekindling or reworking something at the forefront with love, income or beauty in these areas up until the Venus Retrograde ends on June 25^th. At this point something shifts gears and you are ready to start moving ahead again.

On the 27^th Mars arrives in his own sign, Aries, for the first time in 2 years. This is your area that rules career, status, fame, reputation, personal goals, bosses, parents, judges, directors, teachers, mentors, or other higher-up individuals, and your leadership abilities as well. Mars usually moves through a sign in 6+ weeks but this time he is staying for 6+months, until Jan 6^th, 2021! So, it would seem the cosmos really wants you to get busy here. Mars can give you more passion about what is going on here or stir anger and fights about it or motivate you to just do it and find your drive and ramp up the activity about it. He is here a longer stint because he will Retrograde between Sept 9-Nov 13 so make note that you will get this thing moving forward, then slow and review, rework, release, or rekindle something, then move forward again.

Finally, the 2^nd of 3 Jupiter/Pluto meetings occurs on the 30^th, the first having happened on April 4^th, the final one coming on Nov 12^th. This means you are at the midpoint or turning point about what these powerful outer influences are trying to get started for you so let’s take a look. They are meeting in the arena of your relationships which means this story is kicking off with a romantic partner or business partner, your clients or specialists, agents or attorneys, competitors or opponents, or advocates or other significant others. Jupiter wants you to look at growth, happiness or prosperity with them and any of his influences such as travel, distant, legal, educational, media, marketing, wedding, religious, or political matters in the mix. Pluto is about power and deep intimacy, changes taking place or that need to take place, shared interests or third-party influences, sex or reproduction, what is going on financially via loans, debt, inheritance, taxes, insurance, the mortgage, commissions, royalties, investments, settlements, your partner’s money, bankruptcy, or other financial interests, or where you are with a birth, a death or divorce. So, pay attention to what is coming up for you with one of these key players and what you should do from your Jupiter list and your Pluto list to evolve this story forward. Do note that Mars in his new position will be squaring this story come July 21-Aug 29 so there is likely to be a big push or challenge on its way during this period regarding goals, career or authority figure in the mix.

LEO:

Leo, you head into June with energy building to this Full Moon Lunar Eclipse that peaks on the 5^th. This means something is building to completion or celebration regarding a creative venture, your love life or lover, the kids, or a recreational pursuit. Eclipses are 3 times more powerful and can help you eclipse something out as you are moving to this climactic point so aim high and work towards what you would like to have happen. If something exits at this time then it is part of this cycle and divine timing. Check the trigger dates I give up top for key dates that this might be occurring.

There is also going to be a whole lot of focus on your 12^th house this month which means you could be pulling back to rest, recuperate or recharge your batteries, or time for romantic connections, artistic projects or spiritual pursuits, or to research, investigate or focus on institutions. This begins with the Mercury Retrograde kick-off on the 18^th which should show you something to refocus on here with an aim at releasing, rekindling or reworking something. You will have this do-over energy until July 12^th at which point Mercury Retrograde ends and you’ll start moving forward again. So, take your time to rethink things while you are in flux. The Sun then joins the story on June 20^th for a 30-day tour here which puts a spotlight on these matters and urges you to start showing up and getting more personally or physically involved or to make it about your interests in the mix while you have this glow about you. Finally, the New Moon Solar Eclipse is also in this territory of rest, recuperation, inspiration, artistry, spirituality, magic, psychic abilities, romantic interludes, research, and institutions and it is occurring on the 21^st. This is also 3 times more powerful than a typical New Moon so you have a major boost from the cosmos trying to help you to launch into something new or take something to the next level in an ongoing situation over the next couple weeks. Do note the trigger dates given up above in the general overview for other days that something may be significant here.

Neptune has been at work in your zone of financial interests (loans, inheritance, taxes, bankruptcy, insurance, investments, alimony, a partner’s money, or other such topics), sexual interests, reproductive needs, birth, death, divorce, power, control, obsession, jealousy, and third-party/triangle scenarios for some time now. He is either inspiring you or bringing confusion or deception, a dissolving away or a romantic, artistic, spiritual, research, or institutional bearing on the subject so sometimes I’m sure it has felt deep and dreamy and powerful and inspired while other times it has felt isolating and dark or hard to pinpoint. Now, on the 23^rd, he is going to Retrograde and some of this will be slowing down and some will be about giving you some do-over time to either review, release, rekindle, or rework past or ongoing situations here. The Retrograde will last until Nov 28^th so you have plenty of time to figure it out, watch what is shifting as this giant planet changes direction for clues about what to focus on now.

Venus went Retrograde back on May 13^th so you enter June with her still taking you back to release, rekindle or rework something with friends, groups, the internet, astrology, charities, gatherings, aspirations, or original projects pertaining to Venus themes of love, income or beauty. You’ll be in this do-over most of June, until the 25^th, and at that point Venus goes Direct and you shift gears, ready to start moving forward again.

On the 27^th Mars heads into his own sign, Aries, for the first time in a couple years and where he usually then travels through the sign in 6+ weeks he will now be traveling here for 6+ months, until Jan 6^th, 2021! This means you are really going to have a lot of time to make something happen with your travel plans, situations at a distance, import/export, foreign interests, educational pursuits, legal needs, media ventures, marketing ideas, wedding plans, ceremonies, religious pursuits, or politics. Mars fires things up, it brings more passion about what is happening or stirs more anger or fights about it or motivates you to make things happen and get busy with more activity going on in these areas. He is here for the extended period because he will Retrograde in the middle of this 6 months, from Sept 9-Nov 13, at which point you’ll slow a bit and either release, rekindle or rework something, before moving ahead again. Time to do it!

Finally, Jupiter and Pluto are meeting for their 2^nd of 3 hook-ups this year in your zone of work, health, paperwork, hired help, co-workers, service to others, and animals, the first having taken place on April 4^th, the final on Nov 12^th. So, look at growth and change here and look at Jupiter’s travel, distant, legal, educational, media, marketing, ceremonial, religious, or political influences merging with Pluto’s financial, sexual, reproductive, birth, death, divorce, power, control, or third-party interests in the mix, about your work, health, paperwork, hired help, co-workers, or animal interests. This is the midpoint or turning point of the story so pay attention to what is shifting in these areas. Also note, now that Mars has entered Aries he will move into a frictional square with these topics of Jupiter and Pluto between July 21-Aug 29, really bringing fireworks to the story with a major push or challenge.

VIRGO:

June opens with energy building to the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on the 5^th which means you are probably gearing up for something big on the home front, with family, a parent, roommate, move, renovation, or real estate deal, Virgo! You may be wrapping up projects here or marking an actual ending as you eclipse something out or you may find this peak is about achievements or celebrations in these areas of life. Aim high and work towards what you’d like to see happen.

There is also going to be a lot of focus on your social life this month and what you are doing about your aspirations or original projects. You can use this to spend more time with friends or associates, doing things with your group or online, focusing on astrology or charities, planning gatherings or events, or getting innovative about your dreams. You may be in talks or meetings, sales or writing, interviews or offers, or making decisions about this thanks to Mercury but do note there is a shift with this on the 18^th as Mercury Retrogrades and you start the do-over phase with these topics. Over the weeks ahead you may slow down and reconnect with past social interests or original projects to see what is possible or you may exit or see someone/something else exit or you may be reworking and fine tuning an ongoing scenario. Watch for mix-ups, malfunctioning mechanicals or electronics and miscommunications while you are in flux with Mercury Retrograde, it ends on July 12^th. Next, the Sun enters the story on the 20^th, putting a spotlight on friends, associates, groups, the internet, astrology, charities, gatherings, aspirations, freedoms, and original projects for the next 30 days. This is your cue that it’s time to show up and get more personally or physically involved in these matters and to make it about your interests here. Finally, the New Moon Solar Eclipse on the 21^st is about a powerful fresh start with these social and aspirational interests, helping you to launch into something brand new or take a current interest into that next chapter. This is considered 3 times more powerful than a typical New Moon and gives you 2 weeks of momentum so have at it.

Neptune is a powerful influence and he has been all about your relationships for some time now. He has been about past life relationships, karmic balance and threads with others, art, film, music, and other artistic pursuits with them, your romantic life in relationships, the secretive or deceptive side of stories, investigations or research to suss out information, any addictions or bad habits involved with these key people, your spiritual path with them through prayer, mediation, yoga, or interests in magic or psychic abilities, or how you are dealing with institutions involving them. So, think about how this has been with your partners, clients, specialists, agents, attorneys, competitors, advocates, or other relationships. Now, on the 23^rd, Neptune Retrogrades and will slow things down a bit and allow time to review, release, rekindle, or rework past or ongoing scenarios with these topics and your relationships. You will have until Nov 28^th to figure it out so take your time.

Venus Retrograded back on May 13^th so most of June is also in the Venus Retrograde which is asking you to review love, income or beauty interests and what is going on with your personal goals, career or the boss, parent or other authority figures. Again, you may rekindle something, let it go or rework ongoing or past situations here up until June 25^th at which point Venus Retrograde ends and she goes Direct again, giving you permission to shift gears and move forward as well.

On the 27^th Mars heads into his own sign, Aries, for the first time in 2 years and instead of traveling through this sign for his typical 6+ weeks he is going to be touring Aries for 6+ months! It would seem the universe thinks you need to put some added effort into this territory, Virgo. Aries for your sign is about loans, debt, inheritance, taxes, insurance, investments, settlements, bankruptcy, alimony, child support, a partner’s money, or other outside resources, as well as your sexual interests, reproductive needs, birth, death, power, control, jealousy, obsessions, things that are buried, criminal situations, and third-party matters. So, it looks like you will be in there with more passion, anger, fighting spirit, or motivation to make things happen the rest of the year, up through Jan 6, 2021. Lean into the side of this that helps you achieve or share passions as this gives you all kinds of edge and avoid shady dealings and angry or aggressive scenarios as much as possible. Mars is here for such a long time because he will Retrograde Sept 9-Nov 13 so do keep that in mind, that you are setting things in motion now, will then slow and review, release, rekindle, or rework things during the Retrograde phase, and them move them forward again afterwards.

Finally, the 2^nd of 3 Jupiter/Pluto meetings take place on the 30^th, the first was on April 4^th, the last comes on Nov 12^th. This means you are at the midpoint or turning point of this powerful story that is getting underway. These two energies are focused on your love life or lover, your creative talents or projects, the kids, and/or your recreational pursuits. They are merging over these months to help you with a very profound new beginning here when it comes to their influences. So, Pluto is about any changes that needed to occur, any purging of buried things that block new beginnings, a look at where you are when it comes to shared experience, intimacy, sex, reproduction, birth, death, divorce, the financial components, or triangles playing out here. Jupiter is about looking at your growth, happiness or prosperity in these areas and where you are with travel, distant, foreign, legal, educational, media, marketing, wedding, ceremonial, religious, or political interests in the mix. Take the time to look at these influences and how they might be coming together to give you your best shot at moving into that next big chapter in your life with true love, children, creativity, or fun, something should be shifting at this juncture. Oh, and do note that with Mars now in his own sign, that by July 21-Aug 29 he will be in a frictional square to these outer planets so something major is likely to be happening at that point, to push you harder about it or challenge.

LIBRA:

June opens with Full Moon Lunar Eclipse energy building until the 5^th so something is ramping up and peaking over these first few days and for your sign it is about news coming in, a talk or meeting, your sales or agreements, the writing or interviews, your siblings or neighbors, vehicles or electronics, short trips or local activities, or offers or decisions. This is big, Libra, and most likely involves legal, travel, distant, educational, media, marketing, ceremonial, religious, or political interests as part of the story. You can eclipse something out now as you reach this pinnacle via endings, projects wrapping up, celebrations, or achievements.

There is also going to be a lot of focus on a personal goal, career objective or situations with a boss, parent, judge, director, mentor, or other authority type this month. Mercury is helping you get into talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, or decisions about these themes but on the 18^th he begins his Retrograde. This means things will now slow down a bit as you revisit, release, rekindle, or rework some past or ongoing scenario to get it right. You’ll need to be on guard about shifting perspectives, mix-ups, malfunctioning mechanicals or electronics, or miscommunications around these matters but it is a do-over, a time to catch mistakes and get something right. Mercury will be Retrograde until July 12^th. Next, the Sun heads into this territory of goals, career and authority figures starting on the 20^th. He will be illuminating these matters for the next 30 days which is your cue to show up and get more personally or physically involved and make it about you and your interests. Finally, the New Moon Solar Eclipse is about your goals, career or authority figures and it occurs on the 21^st. This is 3 times more powerful than a typical New Moon and is about giving you the next 2 weeks to launch into something brand new or take your current interest into that next chapter. It’s likely that your home, move, real estate deal, renovation, family, parents, or roommates are somehow at the core of this moment.

Neptune has been having such an immense impact on your work and health, co-workers and hired help, as well as your animals and paperwork for years now. On the one hand, Neptune is inspiring and should be helping you attune your spiritual life to your health, animals or work, or spark your imagination and artistry here or bring romance into your life through these avenues or help you focus on your research abilities or dealings with institutions in the situation. On the other hand, Neptune dissolves away and makes things hard to define or pinpoint, can be confusing, depressing, addictive, deceptive, or without boundaries so you’ve been dealing with this as well on the work front or with your health, animals, co-workers, hired help, or paperwork. This began in 2011 and won’t complete until 2026 and hopefully this far into the story you have figured out what the pitfalls are and have leaned into the positive side of things. I bring this up now because on the 23^rd Neptune starts his Retrograde for the year and will be in this motion until Nov 28^th. This slows some of this down and allows you the months ahead to catch up to what has occurred or to review, release, rekindle, or rework past or ongoing stories here. So, pay attention to what is shifting direction around this date.

Venus Retrograded back on May 13^th and is Retrograde until June 25^th so much of this month is about reviewing, rekindling, releasing, or reworking love, income or beauty interests. For you this means focusing on travel, distance, legal, educational, media, marketing, wedding, ceremonial, religious, or political arenas for your do-over with love, income or beauty interests. So, examples could be you and a love interest revisit the idea of getting married or you attend a wedding and run into a past love interest, or you go back and sign up for that course you almost took a couple years ago to help you earn more, you get the idea. Once Venus goes Direct again on the 25^th you should be ready to move forward again yourself, having figured something out.

Mars is heading into his own sign, Aries, on the 27^th and boy oh boy, Libra, does this ever look like things are about to get really interesting for you with certain people. First off, Mars typically runs through a sign in 6+ weeks but this time he is going to be in Aries for 6+ months! Secondly, Mars is about a whole lot more passion, anger, fights, courage, motivation, and/or action going on in a stronger position due to his being in his own sign and you haven’t had Mars here in 2 years. Thirdly, this is about relationships for you; romantic partners, business partners, clients, specialists, agents, attorneys, competitors, advocates, and the like. So, Libra, you are bound to get busier than you’ve been in some time now through the end of the year and up through Jan 6, 2021 with or about these key players, I’d say if you can avoid the angry side of this equation you may move a mountain or two before you are done. Do note that the reason Mars is here for so long is because he is going to slow down and then Retrograde Sept 9-Nov 13 at which point so will things going on with these peeps as you review, release, rekindle, or rework something, then get moving forward again as you come out of it. Also note, that Mars will be moving into square the outer planets between July 21-Aug 29 making this period incredibly fired up and pushing harder or challenging, pace yourself.

Finally, the 2^nd of 3 Jupiter/Pluto mergers occurs on the 30^th, the first having occurred on April 4^th, the final one coming on Nov 12^th. These two are conspiring to bring powerful change and growth for you focused on home, real estate deals, moves, renovations, family, parents, or roommates and you are now at the midpoint or turning point of the story. Pluto wants change, deconstruction and rebirth, empowerment, something deeper, or for you to focus on the financial, sexual, mortality, divorce, reproductive, or third-party impact on this story. Jupiter wants growth, happiness, prosperity, or for you to focus on the travel, relocation, distance, legal, educational, media, marketing, wedding, ceremonial, religious, or political impact on the story. What is happening between April 4-Nov 12 is about setting the beginning of this story on its feet, June 30^th is the turning point, so look at what is shifting in this direction now.

SCORPIO:

June opens with energy building to the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse that peaks on the 5^th. For your sign this is about what is culminating with your income, purchases, products, or possessions as you wrap up projects, achieve goals, mark endings, or celebrate something big here. This is considered 3 times as powerful as a typical Full Moon so aim high and do note that something involving legal, travel, educational, media, marketing, ceremonial, religious, or political topics most likely influence this moment.

There is also a lot of focus on these subjects of travel, distant, legal, educational, media, marketing, ceremonial, religious, or political matters throughout the month. Mercury is here opening up talks, meetings, sales, or writing about it, getting you into interviews or offers, short trips or local activities, or helping with decisions about it. Mercury Retrogrades on the 18^th so at this point things slow and you start to rethink, release, rekindle, or rework something past or ongoing here for the rest of the Retrograde, until July 12^th. You will want to keep an eye on mix-ups, malfunctioning electronics or mechanicals or miscommunications in these areas during this do-over, take your time, get it right. The Sun then joins in putting a spotlight on these travel, distant, legal, educational, media, marketing, ceremonial, religious, or political topics for the next 30 days, starting on the 20^th. This is your cue to show up and get more personally or physically involved in these matters while you have the spotlight. Finally, the New Moon Solar Eclipse arrives on the 21^st in these same areas of life and this gives you a major boost forward, 3 times more powerful than a typical New Moon, to launch into something brand new or take a current travel, legal, educational, media, marketing, ceremonial, religious, or political interest into that next chapter.

Neptune has been impacting your love life and lovers, creative talents and projects, kids, and recreational pursuits since 2011 and will continue to do so until 2026. Neptune is so very powerful and can have two very different sides to his impact. On the positive, he is inspiring, imaginative, dreamy, romantic, artistic, spiritual, and good with research or dealing with institutions so you may have noticed these influences on your lovers or children, creative interests or recreational pursuits. On the more challenging side Neptune dissolves, is escapist, deceptive, secretive, without boundaries, addictive, hard to pinpoint, sometimes depressing, sad, foggy, or confusing so you may have also seen these influences bearing down on love, kids, creativity, or fun. I bring this up because Neptune’s yearly Retrograde begins on the 23^rd and runs until Nov 28^th so at this point you get to slow down with these stuff and take some time to rethink, review, release, rekindle, or rework ongoing or past scenarios here with lovers, kids, creativity, or fun, so watch what shifts a bit and follow that course.

Venus Retrograded back on May 13^th and is taking you back over old ground with love, income or beauty interests until June 25^th. This is playing out in your arena of financial interests, sex, reproduction, divorce, death, birth, and third-party/triangles so expect to be slowed down or reviewing, releasing, rekindling, or reworking ongoing or past situations about love, income or beauty through these avenues until the 25^th at which point Venus goes Direct and you shift gears and start moving forward again as well.

Mars is heading into his own sign, Aries, on the 27^th for the first time in 2 years and rather than make his usual 6+ week tour of the sign he is going to be taking a 6+ month tour here, until Jan 6, 2021! This means you are about to see all kinds of passion, anger, motivation, and/or action firing up over your work, health, paperwork, hired help, co-workers, or animal interests for the rest of the year Scorpio. If you can manage to avoid the angrier side of this equation you should be able to move a mountain or two. Do note that the reason Mars is here so long this time is because he will slow to Retrograde Sept 9-Nov 13 at which point so will you as you enter a do-over stage of review, reworking, releasing, or rekindling ongoing or past scenarios here, before moving forward again. Also note that Mars will begin to square the outer planets between July 21-Aug 29 at which point whatever is happening with your work, health, pets, paperwork, hired help, or co-workers is going to rev up to maximum drive as you push for something big or deal with a big challenge in the mix.

Finally, the 2^nd of 3 Jupiter/Pluto mergers occurs on the 30^th, the first having occurred on April 4^th, the final one coming on Nov 12^th. This means you are at the midpoint or turning point of this story that is powerful and being set on its feet during these months. The focus for you is on talks, meetings, writing, sales, interviews, offers, or decisions, or on siblings, neighbors, moves, vehicles, short trips, local activities, electronics, or ideas. Pluto wants you to go deeper, make changes, look at the financial, sexual, reproductive, birth, death, divorce, or third-party situations in the mix, while Jupiter wants you to look at growth, happiness, prosperity, and any travel, distant, legal, educational, media, marketing, ceremonial, religious, or political interests about it. See what comes together now and take that next step.

SAGITTARIUS:

June is starting out with a lot of energy building up to the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in your sign, Sage! This peaks on the 5^th and is considered 3 times more powerful than a typical Full Moon so something big is culminating for you. This may be about what is ending or what you are achieving with your body, image, brand, name, title, or needs, or a spotlight on you as you garner more attention, recognition find you are being celebrated in other ways. Work towards your goal and aim high.

There is also going to be a lot of focus on your 8^th house topics this month which would be your financial interests (loans, insurance, taxes, bankruptcy, inheritance, or other such topics), sexual attractions, reproductive needs, divorce proceedings, birth or death, or third-party matters. Mercury is getting you into more talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, or decisions about these topics and will begin to slow down as it moves towards the 18^th when Mercury Retrograde begins. Now through July 12^th you are in the do-over phase with these topics so something may shift directions with these matters as you start to rethink, release, rekindle, or rework something ongoing or past with these financial, sexual, reproductive, mortality, divorce, or third-party topics. Then, on the 20^th, the Sun joins the story and will be illuminating these topics for the next 30 days. This is your cue to show up and get more personally or physically involved with these interests while you have the spotlight on you and your interests here. Finally, the New Moon Solar Eclipse arrives on the 21^st and is considered 3 times more powerful than a typical New Moon in helping you now launch into something new or take your current pursuits here into the next chapter. You have the next 2 weeks with this momentum behind you.

Neptune is one powerful influence on everybody’s lives and he has been more empowered than the norm since 2011, something that continues until 2026 and then not again this lifetime. So we are really absorbing his input whether we are conscious of it or not. On the positive side he inspires and sparks the imagination, brings artistry and romance into our lives, or puts us on our spiritual path, brings signs and messages from beyond or through dreams, shows us the magic in the world, and helps with research, investigations and institutions. On the challenging side he hides things, deceives, keeps secrets, is escapist, isolationist, depressing, sad, without boundaries, addictive, and karmic from time to time. He has been aiming all of this at your home, family, real estate deals, moves, renovations, parents, early childhood issues, history, ancestry, security needs, emotional needs, and roommates, so this is where you’ve had to go through dissolving of things and some of the tests as well as some of these most special influences. I tell you this because this month, on the 23^rd, Neptune Retrogrades and will be slowing this down a bit and asking you to review, release, rekindle, or rework something ongoing or past in this situation over the months ahead, until Nov 28^th. Pay attention to what is shifting as it will be your clue about what to move towards at the beginning of this do-over.

Venus Retrograded back on May 13^th and is still in Retrograde as you enter June, keeping you in your do-over with her topics of love, income or beauty until she goes Direct again on June 25^th. For you this has and is focused on your partners, clients, specialists, agents, attorneys, competitors, opponents, advocates, or other relationships so take your time, review, release, rekindle, or rework something about love, income or beauty with these folks during this period. Once Venus goes Direct on the 25^th things shift and you are ready to now move forward having figured something out.

Mars is heading into his own sign, Aries, on the 27^th for the first time in 2 years and rather than move through the sign in his typical 6+ weeks he will now be in Aries for 6+ months! Mars is all about firing things up and getting you busier than you’ve been in some time about the topics it is focusing on and for your sign it is about creative ventures, your love life or lovers, the kids, or recreational pursuits, sweet! Mars is all about getting more passionate about these matters and making things happen, you will, however, have to keep an eye on the angry side of Mars so you don’t end up fighting with the ones you love. Do note the reason Mars is in this territory for so long is because he will slow down and Retrograde Sept 9-Nov 13 so you’ll have some reviewing and do-over energy about the things you are setting in motion now, and then after it is over you will be moving ahead again with it. Also note that Mars will start to square those outer planets July 21-Aug 29 which will be when things fire up the most intensely as you push hard to achieve something or deal with a challenge.

Finally, Jupiter and Pluto merge for the 2^nd of 3 times on the 30^th, the first was back on April 4^th, the final meeting comes on Nov 12^th. This means you are now at the midpoint or turning point of the efforts these two are making to bring powerful change and growth with a new beginning into your life focused on your income, purchases, possessions, or products. Pluto has been and is still about deep changes, purging of certain things, and focusing on other financial scenarios, sexual interests, birth, death, divorce, or third-party’s in the story, while Jupiter is about looking at growth in these matters or what makes you happy or prosperous and any Jupiter influences such as media, marketing, education, law, travel, distant, foreign, wedding, ceremonial, religious, or political topics in the mix. So what is at a turning point with your income, purchases, possessions, or products via some of these Jupiter/Pluto influences, Sage? Time to take the next step.

CAPRICORN:

You enter June with energy building to the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on the 5^th so things are going to be culminating in your 12^th house arenas: research, investigations, dealings with institutions, artistic pursuits, romantic interests, addictions, secrets, depression, isolation, or spiritual practices. Something should be ready to come through, wrap up, end, or be celebrated and achieved in these matters and an Eclipse is considered 3 times more powerful so that could mean something big happening for you. Note the trigger dates linked to this Eclipse listed at the top of this article for days to watch besides this one.

There is also going to be a lot of focus on partners, clients, specialists, agents, attorneys, competitors, advocates, or other key relationships this month. Mercury is here opening up talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, or decisions with them and this is in forward motion but starts to slow as it approaches Mercury Retrograde which begins on the 18^th. As the Retrograde begins you should notice a shift in direction with these people as you either take a bit of a break and catch up or you start into a process of review, releasing, rekindling, or reworking things with them. It’s likely home, family, real estate deals, moves, renovations, parents, or roommates play a part at the core of what you are rethinking with them. There can be mix-ups, miscommunications or malfunctioning electronics or mechanicals associated with these areas of life during this period, the Retrograde lasts until July 12^th so make the most of the do-over. The Sun heads into this zone on the 20^th for a 30-day tour here and this is your cue to start showing up and getting more personally or physically involved with these partners, clients, specialists, agents, attorneys, competitors, or other players. Make it about you and your interests while the spotlight is on you here. Finally, the New Moon Solar Eclipse takes place on the 21^st and is about these key relationships so you now get a powerful boost forward that is 3 times stronger than a typical New Moon and is here to help you launch into something brand new or take your current situation into that next chapter with or about these relationships. You have 2 weeks of momentum so make the most of it.

Let’s take a look at Neptune. He’s been in your 3^rd house of ideas, communications, commerce, local activities, sales, siblings, neighbors, vehicles, moves, electronics, offers, and decisions since 2011 and he is going to be here on his once-in-a-lifetime journey until 2026. During this period, you are getting the good and the challenging side of his influence on these matters. The good is about dissolving away old outworn modes and uncovering what is fresh underneath it, helping you to get inspired, dream big, focus on the research, institutions, artistry, spirituality, or romantic side of things to see what is possible. The challenging is when he shows up as secrets, deceptions, boundary issues, addictions, depression, sadness, isolation, or karmic scenarios that test you with those areas. I tell you this because this month Neptune is going to Retrograde on the 23^rd and stay in Retrograde motion until Nov 28^th which can slow some of this down and give you a breather or allow you to review, release, rekindle, or rework something ongoing or past to get it right. Watch what is shifting with the news you hear, the talks, meetings, agreements, sales, writing, interviews, offers, or decisions you make, or with brothers, sisters, neighbors, moves, vehicles, electronics, short trips, or local activities on this date to see how this is going to go for you.

Venus went Retrograde back on May 13^th and so you enter June with her in Retrograde motion until the 25^th. Venus is about love, income or beauty and is in your zone of work, co-workers, hired help, paperwork, health, and animals, so you may have seen things slow down or someone exiting, returning from the past or a do-over with an ongoing situation so you could get the love, income or beauty right. Once Venus goes Direct on the 25^th you should start to see things start to pick back up and be ready to move forward having figured it out.

Mars is heading into his own sign, Aries, on the 27^th for the first time in 2 years. This is your zone of home, real estate deals, moves, renovations, family, parents, and roommates, Capricorn. Mars usually tours through a sign in 6+ weeks but will be here this time for 6+ months, until Jan 6^th, 2021! This means you have a ton of fired-up, passionate, feisty, courageous, angry, and/or motivated energy that is about making things happen in these areas of life all the way into next year now. Do your part to avoid the fights and you should find you are entering 2021 at a new level or with something new going on that you accomplished with all this motivation. Note that the reason Mars is here so long is he will slow to Retrograde Sept 9-Nov 13 so you initiate stuff now with your home, move, renovation, real estate deals, family, parent, or roommates, then review, release, rekindle or rework things during the Retrograde, and then move ahead again afterwards. Also note that Mars will be squaring the powerful outer planets July 21-Aug 29 so you will be pushing extra hard or dealing with challenges in the mix during that period. Make the most of it!

Finally, Jupiter and Pluto merge for a 2^nd of 3 times this year on the 30^th, the first time occurring back on April 4^th, the final time coming on Nov 12^th. This is happening in your sign Capricorn and is a major story getting underway during these months having to do with you and your body, image, brand, name, title, involvement in things, or personal interests. Pluto is about deep changes, purging of things, your sexual or reproductive needs, financial picture, third-party stories, or how a birth, death or divorce is impacting you. Jupiter is about your growth, happiness or prosperity and how legal, travel, distant, media, marketing, educational, wedding, ceremonial, religious, or political themes are impacting you. So, look at these lists for ideas about this midpoint/turning point you find yourself at in the story this year and what you want to do about your interests moving forward.

AQUARIUS:

June gets underway with energy building to the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse that peaks on the 5^th. This is considered 3 times more powerful than a typical Full Moon so something big is culminating with friends, groups, the internet, astrology, charities, gatherings, your own aspirations, freedom, or original projects. You may be wrapping up projects, celebrating, achieving goals, or marking endings here so aim high.

There is also a lot of focus on your 6^th house matters this month, Aquarius. That means your work or health, pets or paperwork, cleaning or organizing, or hired help or co-workers. Mercury is here opening up talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, or decisions about these topics. Mercury will then begin to slow to go Retrograde on the 18^th. At this point there is a shift with one or more of these interests and you start into a period of review, release, rekindle, or reworking of these topics so you get things right. Do note that from the 18^th-July 12^th while you are in the Mercury Retrograde there can be mix-ups, malfunctioning electronics or mechanicals or miscommunications about it so take your time and double check what you can. The Sun heads into this zone of work, health, paperwork, hired help, co-workers, and animals on the 20^th for a 30-day tour. This spotlights your interests or gets you in there on a personal or physical level to move your interests forward so take advantage of this edge while you have it. Finally, there is a New Moon Solar Eclipse on the 21^st, again 3 times more powerful than a typical New Moon, and you now have 2 very powerful weeks of forward motion with these subjects. You have 2 weeks to launch into something brand new or take your current interests to the next level.

Since 2011 Neptune has been showing you the artistic, romantic and spiritual side of things, the research or dealings with institutions necessary in the mix, and how to tackle addictions, karmic scenarios, secrets, deceptions, or boundary issues, all focused on your income situation, your purchases, your products, or your possessions, Aquarius. So on the plus side it should be a time in your life when you can dissolve away what is not on the right path for you and get inspired, use your imagination and do the behind the scenes steps needed to propel your income, purchases, possessions, or products into the right path. Of course, on the challenging it can feel foggy, sad, self-sabotaging, or isolating from time to time. This month, on the 23^rd, Neptune Retrogrades and from now through Nov 28^th you get some do-over time with this stuff, perhaps to go back to a past situation, perhaps to let go of something not working or perhaps to rework something and get it right, past or present. So, watch what is shifting at this time and take your cue from that.

Venus began her Retrograde back on May 13^th and most of June will be in this backtracking phase with her themes of love, income or beauty as well. For your sign she is playing this out with your love, creative projects, kids, or recreational pursuits, so perhaps it’s time to rekindle some past love interest or go back to an income-making creative project or rework some recreational pursuit for the kids, or maybe you are just taking a break to figure something out, you get the idea, it’s do-over time here as well. Remember, communication, seeing both sides of things, being diplomatic, or the commerce involved are very much a part of this since she is Retrograde in Gemini. Once Venus goes Direct on the 25^th you shift gears and start moving forward again with these matters.

Mars heads into Aries, his own sign, on the 27^th for the first time in 2 years and this is also about communications and commerce for you. Typically, Mars zooms through a sign in 6+ weeks but this time he’s here for 6+ months thanks to his slow down and upcoming Retrograde Sept 9-Nov 13. So, when it comes to your passion, anger or motivation and getting busier than you’ve been in some time, it is going to gear up with talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, short trips, local activities, siblings, neighbors, vehicles, electronics, or decisions during these months ahead. As long as you can stay out of the fighting side of this energy you should be able to move a mountain or two. Also, do note that Mars will move into square with the outer planets in a frictional alignment from July 21-Aug 29 so this is the period when everything gears up the most and gets a bit crazy so pace yourself!

Finally, the 2^nd of 3 Jupiter/Pluto mergers happens on the 30^th, the first having come back on April 4^th, the final arriving Nov 12^th. This means you are at the midpoint or turning point of this powerful beginning that is coming together for you during these months so you should look for something shifting a bit. The focus for your sign is on art, film, music, painting, poetry, dance, romance, prayer, mediation, yoga, magic, psychic interests, investigations, research, institutions, addictions, secrets, deceptions, karmic matters, or boundaries. Pluto is asking you to make or deal with changes, go deeper, transform a situation, or focus on the financial, sexual, reproductive, death, birth, divorce, or third-party needs in this story. Jupiter is asking you to grow, find happiness or prosperity, or focus on travel, distant, legal, educational, media, marketing, wedding, ceremonial, religious, or political themes in the story. So take a moment, see what is shifting in these artistic, romantic, spiritual, magical, secretive, addictive, research, or institutional realms and look at how a new stage is being set through these means.

PISCES:

There is power in the air as June gets underway and the energy is building to the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on the 5^th. This is about something big wrapping up, ending, achieved, or celebrated and it’s aimed at your personal goals, career, status, fame, reputation, or what’s going on with a boss, director, parent, judge, mentor, or other authority figure. It may be transpiring at a distance or involve travel for you, it may be about legal agreements or educational needs in the mix, it may be about media or marketing ideas with it, it may involve a ceremony, or it may focus on religious or political themes in the mix but whatever this goal, career matter or authority figure scenario is, big things are peaking for you now.

There is also a lot of focus for you on your 5^th house matters this month which means creative endeavors, lovers, the kids, or recreational pursuits. Mercury is here opening up talks, news, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, or decisions about these topics so you should feel there is something to focus on here. Mercury starts to slow and then Retrogrades over these creative, love, kid, and fun topics starting on the 18^th. He will take you back over old ground to release, rekindle or rework some past or ongoing story here now through July 12^th. You will have to watch for mix-ups, malfunctioning electronics or mechanicals and miscommunications but at the same time it is helping you figure something out and get it right so take your time. The Sun heads into this same territory on the 20^th and puts a spotlight on kids, lovers, creative ventures, and recreation for the next 30 days. This is your cue to show up and get more involved on a personal or physical level while you stand out and can make it about your interests here. And finally, there is a New Moon Solar Eclipse on the 21^st which is 3 times more powerful than a typical New Moon and all about giving you a major boost forward over the next 2 weeks. Make this about starting something brand new or taking your current situation into that next chapter.

Neptune has been in your sign since 2011 and as the ruler of your sign this is a very powerful influence, a once-in-a-lifetime influence that runs from 2011-2026 and then does not return this time around. So, on the plus side, this has been about dissolving away the old version of you and bringing you more into alignment with the spiritual, artistic, romantic side of you. Depending on how far out from this you had gotten is how intense this transit is or is not for you. There is a focus on your body, image, brand, name, title, ego, identity, and personal interests during these years and you may find yourself researching things more or isolating and going within or dealing with institutions such as hospitals, spas, retreats, or other such places to work on yourself. Following your gut becomes more important now, prayer, mediation or yoga along with water helps connect you, expressing your music, painting, poetry, dance, filmmaking, or other talents helps with the process, and a big part of this for you guys is about karmic scenarios from past life connections and how you are evolving your identity within these frameworks, doing your part to release karma and not create more. Anyway, you guys are being given the greatest inspirational gift from the cosmos during this period but it goes hand in hand with some of Neptune/Piscean challenges like handling secrets or deceptions, bad habits or addictions, the way you may self-sabotage yourself, and any boundary issues you may need to work on. I tell you all of this again because this month, on the 23^rd, Neptune Retrogrades and from now through Nov 28^th you can either take a bit of a break from some of this or you can see past scenarios back on the front burner to work on or rekindle or you could exit something or see someone else exit or you could just rework ongoing situations, it’s a do-over phase. Pay attention to what is shifting for you in these matters now for clues as to where to go next with all of this energy.

Venus Retrograded back on May 13^th so you enter June with her still in her do-over phase about love, income or beauty interests and this remains this way until she ends the Retrograde and goes Direct again on June 25^th. For your sign this is focused on your home, roommates, family, real estate deals, moves, renovations, history, ancestry, parents, or emotional needs. So, look at where you are with income needs in these areas of life or what is going on with your love life or lover or what is happening with beauty here and then release, rekindle, or rework ongoing or past situations here while you have this review period in play. Once Venus goes Direct on the 25^th you should be ready to move ahead again as well.

Mars is moving into his own sign, Aries, on the 27^th for the first time in 2 years! Instead of traveling here for his typical 6+ weeks he is now going to tour this sign for 6+ months, until Jan 6^th next year. This means you are going to be way more fired up and passionate, angry or motivated and making things happen when it comes to making money or what you want to do about your income situation, what is happening with your purchases, or what is going on with your possessions or products. There is something about how you perceive yourself, your identity, or your physical involvement or needs tied up in this and you are going to be able to get busier than you’ve been in some time about it. Do note that Mars is here longer because he will slow and Retrograde Sept 9-Nov 13 so you’ll be moving things along, then go back over things to rework, release or rekindle something, and then move forward again. Also note that between July 21 and Aug 29 Mars is going to be under a frictional square to the outer planets so this is likely the craziest period when you are juggling more or pushing for something here. Remember Mars is all about the passion, anger or drive and activity so if you can stay out of the fights about these things you should be able to move a mountain or two by being proactive.

Finally, Jupiter and Pluto merge for the 2^nd of 3 times this year, the first time having arrived back on April 4^th, the last time coming on Nov 12^th. This means you are at the midpoint or turning point of this very powerful story of a major new start in your life that is being put on it’s feet over these months. The focus for you is to get a fresh start with your own aspirations and original projects as well as with friends, groups, associates, the internet, astrology, charities, gatherings, or causes. Pluto wants you to go deep, make or deal with changes, transform a situation, or focus on sexual reproductive, financial, mortality, divorce, or third-party interests in the story. Jupiter wants you to focus on your growth or happiness or look at where you are with travel, distance, relocation at a distance, foreign, import/export, media, marketing, educational, legal, ceremonial, religious, or political influences in the mix. So, note what is shifting here at this point as you move yourself towards what it is you are creating with that original work or how you are social networking or connected to your social group, etc., there is a lot of powerful energy here for you.
