June 10 - 16

 

Early Week

We begin the week with a waxing crescent moon in Leo. This energy infuses our days with creativity, dramatic intensity, and a willingness to express our emotions openly. We may find comfort in connecting with our inner child, or spending time with children and animals.
.
On Tuesday, Venus sextiles Chiron at 3:12am EST, inviting in profound healing through our relationships. Sharing insecurities and worries with loved ones can introduce more closeness and intimacy. Engaging in artistic endeavors can also provide healing as creativity flows. Later, Mars squares Pluto at 9:21am, bringing tension and frustration with authority. People may feel challenged or confrontational. It's best to step back and avoid escalating conflicts. This volatile transit, with Mars in Taurus and Pluto in Aquarius (both fixed signs), can bring out stubbornness.
.
A ten-hour void of course moon starts at 3:17pm, providing an opportunity to escape into other worlds. Curl up with a good book, comfort show or movie, or play a fun game. It's okay to find healthy escapes today and get lost in a dreamy wonderland.

Late Week

Midweek, the waxing crescent moon enters Virgo, ideal for refining, organizing, and improving our lives. Enjoy getting out into nature, cleanse your space, and make small improvements in various corners of your life.
.
On Wednesday, Mercury squares Saturn at 6:47am EST, causing mental fog and difficulty focusing. This transit, combined with lingering intensity from the Mars/Pluto square on Tuesday, can leave us feeling scattered. Take it easy and allow yourself to move at a slower pace.
.
On Thursday, opportunities for deep healing arise with two gentle contacts with Chiron, the wounded healer. The Sun sextiles Chiron at 2:24am, and Mercury sextiles Chiron later in the day at 10:01pm. These transits encourage vulnerability and openness, promoting closeness, connection, and self-care by sharing thoughts and emotions with others.

Weekend

This weekend, the moon in Libra grows from its First Quarter into a Waxing Gibbous. This dynamic and social moon encourages us to go out and be around friends. Libra's energy seeks harmony and balance, making it an excellent time to smooth out conflicts and balance our interests.
.
On Friday, the Sun conjuncts Mercury in Gemini at 12:32pm EST. This Mercury Cazimi strengthens the energies of these planetary bodies, providing flashes of insight and wisdom. Be sure to share or write down your innovative ideas quickly, as they may disappear as soon as they come.
.
On Sunday, Venus squares Neptune at 11:46pm EST, influencing our interactions throughout the day and into early Monday. This transit deepens our compassion but can also lead to making excuses for others or ignoring red flags in relationships. While empathy is essential, balance it with a dose of reality. Be cautious with spending, as this transit can also lead to overindulgence.
