Weekly Forecast: 6/12/23 through 6/18/23

 

Monday, June 12th ~ We have a few days' break from intense transits as the moon gradually wanes. The moon is in fiery, pioneering Aries all day, helping us move through emotions quickly. We may need an outlet for outbursts today, either through doing something we're passionate about, moving the body, or finding a willing ear to listen. The moon trines Mars at 8:35am EST, amping up physical energy and making us crave action and results. The moon later conjuncts Chiron at 7:15pm EST which brings healing as we listen to our bodies and what they need. Finally, we see the moon entering its Waning Crescent phase at 11:59pm EST. This week is much more inward and reflective, and we will likely need more time to recharge after social activity than normal.

Tuesday, June 13th ~ Today begins slowly, with no major aspects until the Aries moon squares Pluto at 2:26pm EST. We could feel somewhat suspicious of others' motives today, and may need to navigate a deep need for justice. Unfairness can bring out anger and frustration. The moon is void of course for only four minutes, from 2:27-2:31pm EST when it enters Taurus. It is considered exalted in the sign of Taurus, and brings a feeling of grace and calm. We seek out balance through listening to beautiful music or experiencing the loveliness of nature and art. The moon conjuncts its North Node at 8:04pm EST, and is the furthest away from Earth that it can be. This stretches our emotional comfort zone, and helps us to use our intuition like a muscle, strengthening it and growing our faith in ourselves gradually. Trust your instincts above all else today.

Wednesday, June 14th ~ We have the moon in artistic, grounded Taurus all day, suggesting the more we use our five senses in pursuit of joy, the better. Light a scented candle or stick of incense, wear your softest item of clothing, get some flowers to gaze at, listen to a beautiful piece of music, and eat a delicious dinner for optimum Taurean bliss. The moon conjuncts Jupiter at 1:40am and sextiles Saturn at 3:35am EST. We are openhearted and generous, yet keep both feet solidly planted on the ground. We don't get lost in flights of fancy as easily today. The moon squares Venus at 5:07am and later squares Mars at 5:15pm EST. Stubbornness rules the day, and we could easily feel frustrated by others impeding on our peace of mind. Don't be afraid to ask for time and space to yourself.

Thursday, June 15th ~ Today begins with the Taurus moon conjuncting Uranus at 4:54am EST, allowing us to view emotions from a more objective perspective. We may have a sudden insight in regards to an emotional problem we've been dealing with for some time. Mercury squares Saturn at 12:09pm EST, an energy which can be felt all day long. This can lead to overthinking, or pessimistic viewpoints. Much of this transit centers around a negative internal voice. If you notice this happening in yourself, find distractions through fun activities, getting out and about around animals or children, or doing a guided meditation that can help you find calm without letting your imagination spin out of control. The moon sextiles Neptune at 5:18pm and trines Pluto at 9:36pm EST. These are intuitive transits which allow us to see below the surface and connect to our spirituality with ease. The moon is void of course for a very short time, from 9:37-9:45pm EST when it enters Gemini. Curiosity expands; it's a good night for reading a book or taking in some information before bed.

Friday, June 16th ~ The moon is in airy, social Gemini all day. We are more likely to process emotions out loud and will want to talk and vent with others. The moon squares Saturn at 11:19am EST; we may feel restricted by a personal relationship and can fixate on the parts of it which bother us. Take some time for yourself and try to reset, away from its influences for a little while. The moon conjuncts Mercury at 3:12pm EST which awakens our intellect. We seek out information in all forms, and will enjoy reading, watching documentaries, or studying a subject of interest. The moon then sextiles Venus at 4:57pm EST, ideal for dates, friend outings, and other social happenings. This allows for greater harmony in social interactions and eases some of the tension from earlier in the day.

Saturday, June 17th ~ The moon is in Gemini all day, waning as it approaches Newness, occurring just after midnight tomorrow. The moon sextiles Mars at 4:13am EST. We are able to come up with new ideas and fresh solutions by moving the body. If you are feeling stuck or confused, go for a walk or do a quick workout and see what ideas shake loose. The moon sextiles Chiron at 10:33am EST; we help heal a friend through listening intently today, or maybe someone can offer us this same healing by being a friendly ear. Mercury sextiles Venus at 11:29am EST, allowing for balanced conversations which bring emotional release and catharsis. This is an excellent transit for writing, giving speeches, and communicating in an open, easy to understand way. Saturn stations retrograde at 1:27pm EST, where it will be until November 4th. Saturn undergoes a 5 month retrograde every year, so we are no stranger to this energy. This is a time to reevaluate your commitments, responsibilities, and restrictions. Are these still serving your growth and higher good? This is a reflective period that allows us to face our previous karma and sift through it for greater understanding. By the time Saturn stations direct in November, we will ideally have more of a sense of direction and will be ready to move forward with a clean slate. This evening is quite magical and inward, with the New Moon steadily reaching perfection.

Sunday, June 18th ~ The New Moon in Gemini perfects at 12:37am EST. This allows us to shed friendships that no longer serve us, above all. It also helps us to let go of mental constructs, beliefs, and thought patterns which hold us back. It is an ideal day for cutting cords with those you no longer wish to build karma with. The moon squares Neptune at 2:23am and then moves void of course for over four hours. We can get lost in our inner worlds, and dreams can be intense and all encompassing, or maybe we have trouble sleeping. The moon's void ends at 6:57am EST as it moves into the sign it rules over, Cancer. The moon in Cancer heightens intuition and sensitivity, and makes us want to stick to things that are comfortable and familiar. The moon sextiles its North Node at 12:11pm EST, allowing us to dip a toe in something new while still holding tight to our comfort zone. The moon sextiles Jupiter later at 8:45pm and trines Saturn at 8:59pm EST. These transits give us a sense of purpose and duty, but bring some excitement to this commitment. We could feel excited to share this side of ourselves with someone else. Finally, the Sun squares Neptune at 11:53pm EST, something we feel building most of the day and will continue to notice tomorrow. This transit can make us feel more absorbent of the energies of others. We could feel somewhat restricted and confused about who we are, or feel as though others don't understand us on an energetic and basic level. Keep in mind that this transit does not reflect ultimate reality, but instead shows us illusory thoughts that we can get lost in if we're not careful. Float through by not getting too attached as these thoughts arise. Remain curious and ask what they are here to teach you.
