FULL MOON IN SAGITTARIUS AT 13 DEGREES: JUNE 4

Get ready for some Full Moon fire! This Full Moon is adventurous, optimistic and extremely energizing! The Sagittarius encourages variety, freedom and expansion. In this sign, Sag makes a trine to Mars in Leo; another fire sign — adding extra heat, assertiveness and a touch of volatility, which will bring things out in the open. A strong spirit of adventure dares us to roam and create more variety. It is stimulating, fast and impatient, prompting us to act while making courageous choices. The ruler of the lunation is Jupiter in Taurus, which is grounded, earthy and stable. However, there is an energy accumulation as Jupiter is conjunct on the North Node. Adds intensity, with an insatiable quantity of not getting enough. Forget about limits; this is wild energy that can not be constrained. It reinforces accumulation; instead of accumulating more, enjoy what you have. Be mindful that what you pursue adds meaning to your life. Take a day trip, go on an adventure and do something you've never done!

VENUS IN LEO: JUNE 5 - OCTOBER 8, 2023 

Venus, the planet of love and beauty, enters dramatic Leo on June 5 for an extended four-month stay, thanks to her upcoming retrograde cycle in July, which initiates a Leo Vensuian Summer of Love. Venus, in Leo, is expressive, confident and stately. She knows her worth and is regal and a bit "extra." She is spontaneous, vivacious and goes after what she desires. Being in the Sun's sign, there is a natural radiance and vibrancy — glamorous, attention-seeking that takes charge. Take a regal approach while pursuing pleasure and relationships. Asking for what you want or desire is her gift, giving us confidence. She starts her retrograde cycle in July for a four-month stay. So we have months to explore her themes. Since she loves a dramatic entrance, she immediately interacts with an opposition to Pluto in Aquarius. It is about power dynamics, revelations, uncovering secrets and bringing them to the open. There is an intensity of desire to get what you want. It can bring intense passion, obsessing about a person or something you desire that you can't live without. Also, it brings transformation about self-love, relationships and your sense of value, how you shine your inner light into the world. So shine that light brightly and indulge in the offering Venus in Leo is giving us. You can expect drama, fire and a passionate summer!

MERCURY IN GEMINI: JUNE 11 - 26, 2023

Mercury in Gemini means the planet finally lands in its rulership, giving us the best version of itself — which is equal parts effective and courageous. So network, socialize, update your technology, make deals and sign those documents! In this transit, we are more curious — buzzing with ideas while we yearn to socialize with eagerness. We are preparing ourselves to transform into social butterflies. Mercury in Gemini is quick-witted, lively and engaging. During this time, our minds have greater clarity and openness to provoking ideas and insights. For the next two weeks, seize the gifts that Mercury offers. 

NEW MOON IN GEMINI AT 26 DEGREES: JUNE 18

A lively, engaging and slightly confusing New Moon arrives on June 18 in Gemini at 18 degrees. There is a plethora of information and ideas, with an insatiable curiosity, as Mercury in Gemini rules this lunation. During this time, the possibilities are limitless; enthusiastically, let your curiosity guide you. Venus sextiles Mercury and gives a playful, fun-loving, romantic quality. Hang out with those you love or those with a shared interest. The harmonious alignment gives this time an affectionate, open and energizing essence. New Moons are often resets and fresh starts and being in Gemini opens us up to innovative thinking, adaptability and curiosity. There is a glitch, however; it gets tricky as Neptune squares the New Moon, creating confusion, hesitation and a touch of delusion. There can be miscommunication, crosswires and overwhelm with too much stimulation. But, on the other hand, the upside taps into the imaginal realm, escaping with fun, entertainment, or creativity. Before making quick decisions, take a pause, if possible. Gemini is fast and not prone to deep reflection. Overall this is a positive lunation, inviting us to shift our mindset, be receptive and be adaptable to new possibilities. Let's savor and share our joy,  affection and thoughts with others. Most crucial, Gemini is the twins, which teaches us about duality and non-duality. This sign reveals that all of us are mutually interdependent.

JUPITER IN TAURUS SEXTILE SATURN IN PISCES: JUNE 19

Jupiter in Taurus sextiles Saturn in Pisces, On June 19, we will feel this energy for around five days. Jupiter sextile Saturn is an auspicious alignment inviting you to connect with the deepest, most meaningful aspirations within you. Begin to put together plans, support structures and collaborators to move you forward with your dreams. Take a deep dive within to clarify your vision, then slowly and steadily plan. These are grand plans, not something to do on a whim; the goal is to create something lasting which provides security and comfort. The greater the effort we put into it, the greater rewards. Do think long term to make your aspirations come to fruition. This time invites you to begin to foundationally structure your life and set up for something greater — if there's organization needed to be done, take this time to do it.
