Weekly Forecast: 6/17/16 through 6/23/16



Friday, June 17th - Today the moon conjuncts Mars early on, providing a boost of energy and increased ability to focus. The moon is void beginning at 9:52am EST, and at this point there may be an energy drain, primarily for Leo, Taurus and Aquarius. The moon trines Chiron this afternoon, which suggests it is an excellent time for some soul searching and deep delving into the subconscious. The Scorpio moon assists with this and provides us much needed insight.
Venus shifts into Cancer at 3:38pm EST, a very loving and cozy placement for the planet of love and beauty. Venus is quite at home here, and romance and creativity flourish for the next few weeks. There may be a need to hole up with your loved ones, as Cancer enjoys sticking close to their domicile. This is an excellent time for beautifying the home and living environment. Venus in this placement brings a sort of nostalgia, and there could be feelings of yearning or wanderlust for past environments and people. Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces receive a romance boost this month.
The moon exits its void at 9:34pm EST and enters adventurous Sagittarius. The evening could bring some surprises, or a need to shake up the routine in some way or another.
Tonight Saturn and Neptune are in exact square. There have been a lot of big transits lately, and this one has been flitting in and out since Saturn and Neptune have retrograded. Since both of these planets are currently in retrograde, we are dealing with old emotions and old responsibilities and baggage. This is going to feel a bit strange, because situations you're certain you've outgrown could replay in varying ways. The important thing is not to revert to old behaviors that don't serve you. Take a step back if needed, rather than reacting in a way you may regret.

Saturday, June 18th - Early on in the day, Mars and Uranus are inconjunct. Physical energy and ailments may rear up, but they are less likely to do so if you provide yourself with adequate rest and care. Be preemptive. This could extend to mental health as well - take some time off and enjoy nature, or do something that provides you happiness.
The moon opposes Mercury, conjuncts Saturn and squares Neptune over the course of the afternoon and evening. Communication may be a little difficult. It makes more sense to go off on your own and focus on personal studies. Mind expansion of all sorts is a bit easier today. Consider studying or reading a book, or learning through experiences in some form or fashion.

Sunday, June 19th - The Sagittarian moon squares Jupiter and the North Node this morning. Feelings of pessimism or limitations could come up. A lot of this is temporary, but dwelling too much in things that have not yet come to pass could cause some opportunities to be missed out on.
Tonight, the moon trines Uranus and squares Chiron. We are gearing up for a HUGE astrological day tomorrow, so some sensitive folks could be feeling pulled in lots of different directions. The summer solstice is a fertile time for growth, both in nature and in our personal lives. Consider the changes that have taken place for you since the last summer solstice, and celebrate the positive shifts that you have made, even if it is challenging to think of any. Some victories are small, but that doesn't mean they aren't worthwhile.

Monday, June 20th - This is a very important day in the cosmos, and many big transits are coming through to shake things up today.
The first is the Full Moon which hits at precisely 7:04am EST. This full moon (Moon opposition Sun) is on the Gemini/Sagittarius polarity, which directly affects mental processes and our ability to learn and soak up new information. Full moons are a time to reap and collect rewards and make results happen, so it is very likely that new belief systems and ways of looking at the world are beginning to occur for many people. This polarity will create shifts and changes in schooling. Some may want to change majors, or go back to school (or maybe leave school entirely). There is a need to take in new information now, even if it is not in a formal learning environment. Travel of all sorts is supported, and many will feel a desire to go someplace new this week.
The moon is void of course from 7:04 until 7:55am EST, when it enters Capricorn. While we are curious and searching for answers through outer experience, the Capricorn energy comes along to remind us to keep grounded and stable. Try as we might, running off into the wilderness won't work right now unless we've come to terms with what we're trying to run away from. Mercury and Saturn are opposite one another today, and so if you have been avoiding a responsibility or not dealing with a relationship problem, it will likely be forced to the surface today. You may get called out on something, and this is okay. Once this problem is dealt with, there is a lot of tension that is released that can then be applied to something creative and new.
Mercury and Neptune are square today also, which will lead some people to question their beliefs and have issues with the beliefs of others. This could create tension in political and religious arenas. Some may feel compelled to stand up for their beliefs even if they were not questioned. If something is not worth the fight in the long run, it may be better to let it go for now.
Jupiter is exactly conjunct the North Node again today, which is an extremely lucky time (especially for Virgos, as the conjunction happens in their sign). This will impact our abilities to manifest growth and change. New opportunities open up in the health and medical fields.
The Sun enters Cancer tonight at 6:33pm EST, bringing in the Summer Solstice. This is a time of light and abundance, and on the longest day of the year (in the Northern Hemisphere, at least), it is the time to count blessings and step fully into that light. If you are having struggles right now, you are on the dividing line between the confining winter and the expansive summer. Step forward and allow yourself the permission to grow and move toward the light.

Tuesday, June 21st - The Capricorn moon creates work shifts and financial opportunities. The moon trines the North Node/Jupiter conjunction and shifts into conjunction with Pluto. It is a good time to create your own business or begin to work from home. Again, those who plan to work in the healthcare industry may experience some changes. This also applies to those who are caring for themselves, or interested in energy work. Fresh ideas from yesterday zap new patterns and pathways into our minds, and allow illumination in areas that once seemed foggy. Again, starting a new business of any kind is supported. Pluto's leadership abilities help those who look to help themselves.

Wednesday, June 22nd - The moon squares Uranus this morning before moving void of course at 4:57am EST. Energy is a bit depleted this morning, but it doesn't necessarily feel like a bad thing. There is a wish to stay and lounge in bed, or take it easy in the summer sun. If you are able to skirt responsibilities, then it could be a pleasant, lazy day.
The moon sextiles Chiron and Mercury squares the North Node and Jupiter this morning. This is not a day for massive progress, but rather a day of rest and regrouping. The energy is overall uplifting and gentle, but brings no massive shifts.
At 4:08pm EST, the moon exits the void and enters Aquarius. You may be drawn to help someone else tonight, or work for a greater cause. Band together with others, as tonight there is strength in numbers.

Thursday, June 23rd - Mercury and Pluto are inconjunct today. Others may not understand new directions you're heading in, but this is okay. We are allowed to change and grow as people, and if others have a hard time adjusting, then that's fine. Everyone moves at their own pace. We can't expect everyone to always understand and support us one hundred percent of the time. If you feel as though you need some support and love, there is a lot of this as well. You may need to look a little harder, or push past the criticism to find it.
The moon and Saturn are in sextile. Ideas take shape and form more concrete plans. I would liken it a bit to finally sketching out the blueprint when it's been living in your head for months. There is still no solid house to walk into, but the pieces are all there now. Begin sketching your blueprints, in whatever way brings the idea into a more attainable place.
