This Week's Astrology

The astrology this week brings big energy with the Solstice Sun moving into Cancer to make a square of Sun-Jupiter to Saturn-Neptune.

This energy shows a time where we’re expanding as well as contracting, creating as well as dissolving, and finding a path forward in the physical world as well as the metaphysical world. The astrology this week includes:

• Jupiter square Neptune: Expanding your faith, being open to new experiences in the subtle or sensory realm, finding seemingly magical solutions to challenges.
• Mars moves into Virgo: On Tuesday, June 17 at 1:35am PT through August 6. Fighting for something with thoughtful process. Being direct with no-nonsense. Honoring where you’re at now while also efforting toward an ideal.
• Mars sextile Jupiter: You may find support from others or in your community when you take action.
• Sun in Gemini sextile Chiron: Strengthening confidence and vitality by being on your healing path. Tending to your vulnerabilities brings self-assuredness.
• Last Quarter Moon in Pisces: On Wednesday, June 18 at 12:19pm PT. Finding your flow and allowing yourself to be guided on where to go from here. Sometimes a solution involves multiplicity.
• Solstice + Sun moves into Cancer: On Friday, June 20 at 7:42pm PT. Happy Birthday to my Cancerian folks! Happy first day of Summer or Winter! Solstice is a moment of stillness at a max point. Sun in Cancer illuminates issues around caretaking, community, nurturing, watery things, healing, protection, intuition, and emotional security.
• Sun square Saturn: Determination, strength of self, and paving a path forward. If there have been challenges around self-worth, insecurity, or confidence, those may be illuminated at this time. This is an excellent transit for finding your inner strength through choice and will.
• Venus opposite Juno: Finding harmony and reciprocity in relationships or partnerships. Finding room for pleasure and beauty as well as the mundane day-to-day responsibilities. Do your values align with committed relationships?
