Monday, June 7th ~ Today the moon is in Taurus all day long. Despite the somewhat grounded emotional field, we may long for more excitement. The moon conjuncts Uranus and squares Saturn this morning at 3:39am and 4:51am EST respectively, which casts a restless energy over the day. We fight against routine ways of thinking and approaching problems. The Sun opposes asteroid Juno today, the asteroid representing mothers and nurturance. Independence prevails as we long to assert our identity and individuality. Harmless rebellion is likely to play out on a small scale, like slipping out of work early or doing something outside your regular Monday regimen. Shaking things up brings a sense of freedom and upliftment.
Tuesday, June 8th ~ The moon is in Taurus for the first half of the day, forming a few aspects before noon EST. The morning is quite positive and optimistic. Ideas abound and we have the energy to see them through. There is a void moon from 11:07am until 2:48pm EST, when it moves into Gemini. This void period brings a lower energy and a need to distance ourselves from what is expected of us. As soon as the moon ingresses Gemini, our minds wake up and sparkle with curiosity and intrigue. Jupiter sextiles asteroid Eros today, which ignites love affairs and all-consuming attraction. We will likely want to socialize tonight, or pass theories and contemplations back and forth. Flirtatious banter is the baseline. As the moon squares Jupiter at 6:47pm EST we could pour ourselves entirely into a single idea or person. The day's energy feels like we might be viewing it through heart-shaped glasses.
Wednesday, June 9th ~ The moon is in Gemini all day, prepping us for tomorrow morning's New Moon. It is a good time to get clear about your New Moon intentions. The Gemini macro moon cycle centers around learning, technology, and communication. What would you like to learn over the next six months? What behaviors would you like to unlearn? What would you like to communicate? Give it some thought today and tonight so you can welcome the New Moon with clarity. The moon trines Saturn tonight at 5:43pm EST which will help you to focus on your emotional desires. Uranus enters into a several day conjunction with asteroid Ceres today, which rules over animals and plants. The flora and fauna of the earth may express their needs in surprising ways over the coming days. Unpredictable behavior from houseplants, gardens, and pets suggests that they are trying to share something with you. Open your inner ears and listen. Put on music for your plants. Spin a record for your dog.
Thursday, June 10th ~ Today is a big day astrologically! We begin with a Solar Eclipse at 6:41am EST closely followed by the New Moon in Gemini, hitting at 6:52am EST as the Sun and Moon meet in exact conjunction. This powerful twenty minute period is potent for setting New Moon intentions. If you have not yet set your desires for this Gemini macro moon cycle, you can still do so today. Think about what information you'd like to acquire, and any brain patterns or limiting beliefs you'd like to unlearn or shift away from. You can also think about what you'd like to communicate or share with others (particularly through writing), and what issues in communication you hope to overcome. These are just some ideas; feel free to focus on whatever is pertinent to you. By the time we reach the Full Moon in Gemini in six months, many of these seeds of intention will have had the chance to blossom in full. The moon gives us a rest from potent energy as it moves void at 1:28pm EST, where it will remain for the rest of the day until early tomorrow. The Sun and Mercury meet in conjunction at 9:12pm EST, and kick off a brand new Mercury cycle. New ideas and fresh insight abound. This is called the "genius" aspect, as it allows us to activate rarely used portions of the brain and channel in sudden inspiration. More on today's aspects in the newest podcast episode.
Friday, June 11th ~ The Gemini moon is void of course until 3:23am EST, when it slips into Cancer. As the moon returns to its domicile, our emotional world deepens. We may feel more sensitive and expressive, particularly thanks to a Moon/Jupiter trine at 7:28am EST, which expands the emotional field. The big celestial shift for today happens at 9:33am EST when Mars enters Leo, where it will be until July 29th. Mars does well in Leo, as it allows it a proper expression of fire and energy. Moving out of its debilitated place in Cancer, we may feel an increase in physical stamina and a desire to express creatively. Mars in Leo's keyword is Pride. Pride serves as a motivator during this month and a half. Pride can be a positive thing if it manifests as self-confidence, but be careful not to go too far and allow it to separate you from others or see them as inferior. More on Mars in Leo can be found in today's podcast episode.
Saturday, June 12th ~ The moon is in Cancer all day, conjuncting Venus at 2:59am EST. Tender hearted expression rules, and we seek to communicate the depth of our feelings to those who are most important to us. Venus and Chiron meet in square at 2:28pm EST, which shows that great strides toward unification and personal healing come through working out difficulties with those we care for. Being upfront and emotionally honest provides closure and the ability to move on from harmful ties. Asteroid Eros, currently retrograde, ingresses back into Sagittarius. Eros rules over sex and sensuality, and in Sagittarius enjoys freedom of expression in these areas. This can bring out a more playful, spiritual side to love and romance. As the asteroid is still retrograde, we could be working through past approaches to sex and intimacy and allowing ourselves to break free of these ideas, which have been frozen as though encased in amber. Healing comes through expression and allowing yourself permission to be seen and appreciated.
Sunday, June 13th ~ We have the moon in Cancer for the first part of the day, void of course from 7:16am until 2:23pm EST when it enters Leo. The early half of the day is imaginative and creative. Venus and Uranus are in sextile at 1:37am EST, casting a dreamy light on the morning and afternoon. Unexpected ideas pull us out of our normal routine. We may feel pulled toward fanciful whims or sudden outings with a loved one. The moon in Leo conjuncts Mars at 5:07pm EST, which gives us a sudden boost of physical energy. Generosity of spirit abounds. The Sun squares Neptune in Pisces today at 7:39pm EST, which expands our concept of self into higher realms. It is easier to touch base with your soul and its many facets. Allow yourself to flow with the sort of dreamlike energy of the day and you may be pleasantly surprised.
