Your Monthly Horoscope
Astrology Basics:
At the moment you were born, the planets, the moon, the sun, and the star constellations that are the 12 signs of the Zodiac, were all in a specific place (whether it was daylight or night!). The same force (type of gravity) that holds the planets in their orbit around the sun, and which holds all the stars in their specific locations in our galaxy, effects you here on earth. The combined forces from all those bodies in the universe effect each of us on the earth in a very real and significant way. All of those forces also effect each other, depending on the angle at which they meet and depending upon the way that the qualities of each universal body interact with the other, which then effects you in a particular way.
The way these forces are aligned with each other, and their nearness to you at the moment of your birth, determine what your basic personality is like – the framework of who you are, by which everything else you experience after that moment will be measured. These forces determine how you will be inclined to perceive your world and react to your world, in other words they determine the framework of your personality.
You still have absolute free will, given to you by the Creator, so you can be whoever you want to be. Astrology helps you see and understand your basic personality makeup, so that you can use that information to see and experience your hidden talents, see what motivates you in order to use that knowledge to lead you to fulfillment, and see how to overcome whatever weakness or self-doubt you may have.
Horoscope for June 2025
You’ll get a more accurate horoscope if you read your Rising sign, and your Moon sign, as well as your Sun sign. Here’s how
Your Sun sign represents your Self, your way of being in the world. It can represent both the ego (mental) self and the higher Self (soul purpose). It symbolizes your will and sense of vitality. Your Sun sign horoscope will tell you what these areas of your self will encounter this month.
Your Rising sign represents your outer mask, the self you show to others. It symbolizes how you appear to others, how others perceive you, in your true interaction with the world. Your Rising sign horoscope will tell you what to expect in these areas of your self this month.
Your Moon sign symbolizes your personal self, your feelings, your subconscious. It represents how you relate to others, how you have nurturing relationships with others, your intuition, your spiritual self, your sense of security, and your habits. The Moon symbolizes your feminine, nurturing side (we all have one). The Moon also indicates the type of partner you will attract, since it represents your emotional self. Your Moon sign horoscope will show you what these areas of your self will encounter this month.
This is another consequential month for you, Aries. The recent Gemini New Moon, which was additionally conjunct Mercury, characterizes this June cycle, and has spoken to you regarding communications of all kinds, including curiosity and learning that brings you into closer connection with the mystical divine within you. There is also the powerfully highlighted presence of Neptune in your first solar house of identity and projected persona to really bring that home. There is a mystical element, ascribed to Neptune that might feel like it is suffusing your aura as you connect with others, and as you identify with yourself; he shines together, though, with a grounded practicality that brings his otherworldliness and transcendence into greater physical expression. Neptune lies just off the zero Aries Point and is there joined more and more closely by practical Saturn in the very beginning degrees of your sign. This ongoing conjunction between Saturn and Neptune affects everybody, referencing a societal impact of polarization and of coercing the mystical and the mythological into concrete manifestation while simultaneously enabling a less purely practical stance with matters of the heart and what is demonstrably beyond the physical. For yourself personally, you are invited to see where your unconscious might be leading you by partaking in intuitional information from your depths. Unshrinking familiarity with you own inner wounding might provide an important turning point as well, as you navigate a somewhat fraught June month. The Sagittarius Full Moon of the 11th acts as a culmination of these themes and may bring to a head this better-informed understanding of what is going on deep within you. Acceptance of hidden places within breeds integration and eventual healing. The Cancer Solstice of June 20th is also an extremely potent juncture when transformation is on your mind and in your heart as you seek a far-reaching balance for your unconscious and more conscious parts.

The Gemini New Moon from May 26th sets the tone for this month. As the first lunation since Saturn joined Neptune in the early degrees of your sign, it opens a portal for mental renewal, since Mercury, the ruler of this lunation, forms a harmonious sextile to both. Saturn and Neptune in Aries, and in trine to Pluto in Aquarius, suggest that this is a ripe moment for recalibrating how you think about yourself, the world, and your cognitive process, in general. Consider: what old narratives are falling away? What new truths are beginning to form, still raw and unfinished? The trine from Mercury to Pluto in Aquarius enhances this opportunity with insight and courage, as well as challenges and changes in the way you think about things. You win when you make the effort to speak what you’re sensing, or journal what you can’t yet explain. Gemini offers you the language to narrate your changes, and naming can be a helpful part of claiming your truth.
The June month opens with a soft but seismic shift, stirring the core of your sense of self and identity. With Saturn and Neptune now forming a powerful conjunction in the first degrees of your sign, in the unfolding tale of your life you may feel like you’ve cracked open a fresh book, not just a new chapter. And you’re not merely the protagonist this time, you’re the author. These two slow-moving planets right at the very beginning of your sign invite you into a long arc of spiritual refinement and self-definition, though the way forward may feel spiraling and unclear. Saturn in Aries can bring pressure around responsibility and decision-making, even as Neptune dissolves rigid boundaries and evokes a yearning for higher purpose. The oscillation between clarity and fogginess could persist as you begin to discern what this new era is ushering into your life and self-concept.
on June 5, as Venus enters Taurus and as June begins to unfold, your attention may turn toward embodiment and tangible pleasure activating your second house of self-worth, values, and material resources. This is a grounding moment amid the psychic churn. Tend to your body, and nervous system. Invest in simple joys and reconnect with what feels stabilizing. Taurus asks: what is truly nourishing to you – emotionally, financially, somatically? Venus here can support confidence and ease, reminding you that stability is not stagnation. Rather, it can be the fertile soil from which new courage grows.
Jupiter enters Cancer on June 9th, where it will spend about a year illuminating your fourth house of home, family, and emotional roots. This is Jupiter’s sign of exaltation, and the planet of expansion thrives here. It opens a space to explore your emotional capacity and heart space. Jupiter’s ingress into Cancer also forms a square with Saturn and Neptune in your sign, stirring internal friction between your need for independence and your need for security. This isn’t an either-or situation, but it may feel like one at times. Jupiter here invites you to broaden your emotional landscape, deepen your sense of belonging, and offer healing to ancestral or familial patterns. But Saturn and Neptune in Aries urge self-definition and spiritual authorship. Can you hold both the desire to be interdependent and the desire to be sovereign? Can you lean into your courage and foster the inner spaciousness to be present with it all?
The Sagittarius Full Moon on June 11th, ruled by Jupiter, shines light on your ninth house of vision, belief, and higher wisdom. This lunation is supportive of further expansion and exploration. It encourages you to break free from stale ideologies or self-imposed limitations. You may experience a longing for freedom – mental, emotional, or geographic. Yet with Jupiter still squaring Saturn and Neptune, any expansion now must be rooted in discernment. While this energy could look like escapism, it can also be supportive of your evolution. You might open your horizons by allowing this Full Moon to remind you of your capacity to choose your beliefs with intention, and to revise them ongoingly as you grow and change.
From the 12th to the 16th, Mars, your ruler, is square to Uranus, while Jupiter square Saturn at the beginning of your sign is also active, both of these aspects perfecting on June 15th. This may be a time for political awareness, as Jupiter and Saturn are referenced as social planets, and are aligned with key sectors of your chart. This also brings your home and family sector into play and you might find yourself exploring your inner world. Uranus brings surprises and unexpected enlightenment, with intuitional information readily available to you if you can remain open to this unusual source of your own distinct truth.
On June 17th, Mars ingresses into Virgo, giving energy to your sector of workplace and day-to-day environment, including habitual behaviors and heath regimens.
The second half of the month brings deep emotional tides. The Cancer Solstice on June 20 marks a pivotal turning point, activating your inner world and relationships to family, memory, and care. The Sun joins Jupiter in Cancer, further activating the square aspects to Saturn and Neptune in your sign. These transits may stir old wounds or illuminate internal divides between the part of you that longs to rest and the part of you that insists on doing. Two Yod formations, and the yod is also known as the “Finger of God” aspect, intensify the evolutionary pressure. Mars, your ruling planet, at the focal point of the major yod, in Virgo, invites precision and discernment. These are not times best suited for impulsive action, but for mindful refinement and strong (sometimes hard) choices. Endeavor to partner with the tides of life and allow your instincts to be re-shaped by what is arising.
The final lunation of the month occurs with the Cancer New Moon on June 25, a soulful invitation to soften. Occurring just days after the Solstice, this lunation echoes emotional and relational themes that have been building. It closely conjoins Jupiter, amplifying the call to stay rooted with yourself in care, nourishment and finding spaciousness in home settings – not as an escape, but as a foundation for deeper presence in the world. You are being asked to dissolve outdated defenses and trust a new way of being, one that honors your sensitivity as a strength. The courage to feel, to love, and to receive support is as essential now as any action you take.
This June month, in summation, is one of inner architectural change for you. As the outer world continues to shift rapidly, your inner compass is coming more to the fore, recalibrating, redefining what it means to be you. The fire of your Aries sign meets water and earth this month – not to douse your inner flame, but to help it burn wiser, longer, and more sustainably. If you can trust in the universe to guide you, allow this alchemy to unfold. Stay grounded in your body. Be generous with your rest. Let presence and willingness to meet what is arising guide your next steps.
This is another month of exciting and changeful shifts, Taurus, in the way you see yourself evolving, in a way that also involves your public persona. There is a potent factor of your own internal unconscious process coming to the fore as well over the course of a potent month of transformation and greater conscious integration of all your disparate ingredients. There is a sequence for you this month that initially involves coming to terms with your more unconscious contents and learning to somehow make accommodation there, where these mysterious personality factors can become recognized as compensatory and yet little-known aspects of yourself, thus no longer projected on others around you. Your internal principles, what you might call your moral compass, is more present for you than ever, and one key to navigating your ongoing changes would seem to be better integrating inner standards with overtly stated ones. By the time of the potent June 11th Full Moon in Sagittarius, partners and partnership agreements take center stage in your evolutionary process which also has a distinct focus – as you better understand and cohere to inner guidance – with your career and professional life. The emerging presence in your sign of Venus, your ruler, brings into the bargain a species of self-recognition. Less than two weeks later, the Cancer Solstice of June 20th is another extremely powerful juncture, when Venus reaches the midpoint of your sign, semi-square with the closing Saturn-Neptune conjunction at the beginning of Aries, and when Mars, your partnership sector ruler, makes a yod formation to transformational Pluto in your vocational sector with the Sun along with Jupiter in the first degrees of Cancer.
The following was written by our wonderful in-house astrologer, Leslie Benson. You can find her at https://www.astrologyforawakening.com/
The month opens under the influence of the recent Gemini New Moon on May 26th, governing June. This initiated a fresh cycle in your second sector of resources, values, and your actual body. This lunation carries conversational sparkle and plenty of mental stimulation thanks to Mercury’s strong presence in Gemini, along with a flowing trine to transformational Pluto in Aquarius. You may find yourself questioning what you truly value or rethinking your understanding of money, time, and energy. There’s a deeper invitation unfolding beneath the surface: to upgrade your inner orientation around self-worth. Saturn and Neptune are imposing a strong mutual energy into early Aries in your twelfth sector of unconscious process, and this New Moon is the first lunation cycle with this signature present. With flowing sextiles in the recent New Moon from the Sun–Moon– Mercury conjunction in Gemini and from Pluto in Aquarius, your vocational sector, this Saturn–Neptune conjunction is spurring a dynamic new life stage, yet, for you, much of the evolution is happening behind the scenes. Some of your old coping patterns could be dissolving. Furthermore, you are invited to approach your inner world and the unseen realms of consciousness and energy with diligence and a deep compassion for the human condition. With Venus, your ruler, in this same Aries sector and trine to Mars, which traditionally rules Scorpio, your opposite sign, these challenges and changes of June also involve your key relationships, that are therefore making this month, as well, a heart-felt contribution to your own spiritual and material evolution.
On June 5th, Venus returns home to your sign thereby anchoring you more fully into the sensual world. After her retrograde earlier this year, and her trek through the fiery lands of Aries, her entrance into Taurus may come as a very welcome relief, a balm for your heart and soul. Venus in Taurus favors beauty, pleasure, and slowness – ritual baths, barefoot walks, and long meals made with love. Let yourself be fed by the tangible. And don’t underestimate the power of aesthetic choices now; they’re not at all superficial; instead they can be reflections and transcendent calibrations that help foster your expression, creativity, and new ways of opening into connection with the world around you.
Another major shift arrives on June 9th, when Jupiter enters Cancer for his year-long trip there, amplifying your third house of cognition, communication, and local environment. With Mercury also recently entered into Cancer just a few steps ahead, this pairing highlights your emotional intelligence and unique learning style. Jupiter is exalted in Cancer, and so his expansive lens in this solar sector may have you feeling extra hungry for broadening your horizons and new learning. Additionally, Jupiter’s square to Saturn and Neptune in Aries is quite consequential, reminding you that connection to your inner world – especially deep intuition, yet also subconscious fears – are an essential ingredient in your learning process. Journaling and writing down your night-time dreams and reflective conversations could be important for navigating this emotional terrain, and you may feel an urge to be in environments where empathy and emotional attunement are centered in communication and connection.
The Sagittarius Full Moon lands on June 11th in your sector of shared resources, psychological depth, and personal evolution. This lunation, ruled by compassionate Jupiter, now in Cancer, may illuminate newfound energy for exploring your inner depths and emotional landscape. This Full Moon shines light on what’s been hidden, asking you to get honest about your inner drives, and the nature of your intimate relationships. This plus how you’re showing up in partnership. At its heart, this timing invites an open exploration of the ways in which you invest your energy; it may be releasing patterns that could prevent you from effectively collaborating or allowing yourself to be in a spirit of reciprocity that facilitates mutual thriving.
On June 20th, the powerful Summer or Cancer Solstice, as the Sun moves into that sign, marks a turning point for your communications, curiosity, and mental focus as well as your spiritual attention. You might notice an inner pull toward writing, learning, or reconnecting with loved ones; yet this shift also brings emotional complexity. The Sun’s conjunction with Jupiter, and their simultaneous squares to Saturn and Neptune, suggest that the expansion of your voice or vision is accompanied by a yearning to express deep, personal truth. Two Yod configurations – the famous astrological “Finger of God” – amplify the sense of crossroads, pointing toward a measure of precision and intentionality around how you communicate and connect. With Pluto and Mars thus focalized, there is passion that could express as anger, or obsessive doing. You might feel like you’re threading the eye of a needle, seeking clarity in a fog of feeling, or finding more discernment in choosing how to creatively express your heart. This is not a time for perfection, but one to bring more discernment to. You are investigating how you make meaning of your innermost longings, and in what way you choose to convey and communicate these deeper stirrings.
The New Moon in Cancer on June 25th offers a gentle but potent new cycle in your communications and daily mindset. The Sun and Moon unite with Jupiter here, re-iterating the solstice energies, and reinforcing a theme of emotional intelligence as strength. This lunation supports deeper listening – not just to others, but to the quieter parts of yourself that crave nurturing and safety. You may feel called to soften the way you speak to yourself, or to seek more honest and heartfelt exchanges in your close circles. There’s something deeply human about this lunation, as it encourages you to lead with care and allow impulses to control to soften and rest. In a world that often prizes intellect over intuition, your gift this month is to lead with your heart and unique sense of wisdom.
Throughout all of June, there’s a quiet spiritual undercurrent nudging you toward greater authenticity. You don’t have to shout to be heard. You don’t need to force results. You are simply invited to remain present to what your body and heart are saying and communicate in ways that amplify the reciprocity of care. With Venus, your ruler, strong in your sign and Jupiter conjunct this New Moon lighting up emotional intelligence in your communicative outreach, this has been a month to trust your pace, your pleasure, and your inner knowing. It might help you to recognize that not everything needs to be explained, and that some truths are best left to be embodied.
This month represents a time of transformation, Gemini, and of discoveries relating to your worldview, self-understanding, and issues of identity. What is relatively unconscious within you may be coming to the fore as you navigate social situations and your eventual life goals. Much of this is based on the recent New Moon in your sign from the ending days of the previous month, governing most of June. This New Moon also featured Mercury, your ruler, in close trine with Pluto in Aquarius, corresponding to your sector of higher mind. This area of philosophical meandering, worldview and education or travel initiatives is slowly evolving over this month and year. Saturn is also this month coming into conjunction with Neptune in early Aries, or your social sector, where the practicality (Saturn) of ongoing life events, is mingled with mystical truth beyond the physical (Neptune) to which you must also somehow respond. Your beliefs and worldview, or perhaps educational and travel initiatives, have been in flux for many months, continuing into this current one. Your very understanding of who you are is now in distinct metamorphosis. Whenever you will come out the other side, you will have achieved an entirely different evolutionary stage. The Sagittarius Full Moon of the 11th brings partners more directly into the picture of what you are up to, in your ongoing changes. In this lunation, Mercury in early Cancer is now square Saturn-Neptune, which might slow you down. Friendships and groups are affected, plus your understanding of your own societal impact, values, and future goals. The Cancer Solstice of the 20th represents another potent juncture when potential difficulties with the ongoing astrology become more intense and impactful. Be patient if you can, because this is all feeding your eventual transformation into greater authenticity, which you are ultimately shooting for.

The month begins with your sense of identity heightened from the effects of the New Moon in your sign from May 26th. This recent New Moon governs the thirty-day lunation cycle of most of June, setting the tone for an especially self-reflective, possibility-rich month. With Mercury, your ruling planet, also in Gemini and closely aligned with Sun and Moon in this lunation, this opening moment carries a bright mental spark. With your ever-eager mind seeking for stimulation, reinvention, and connection, you may feel more alert to subtle cues and intuitive insights than usual. Pluto in Aquarius, also stimulated by the position of this New Moon, lends the cycle deeper weight, inviting you to reimagine your identity, not just in terms of self-image, but in how you participate in a changing collective landscape. The trine between Mercury and Pluto, located in your ninth sector of higher mind, suggests powerful insights about your purpose or life message, and to hone your mental acuity in on what transforms your sense of meaning and philosophy of life. Saturn and Neptune are joined in a powerful conjunction in Aries – their conjunction in its early degrees the first in several decades. Lighting up your sector of community and future goals, this combination may look like a dissolution of ideals that no longer match your growing vision. There could be engendered a new sense of commitment to being more fully yourself in the groups or social spheres in which you are involved. These two powerhouse planets – in their coming together – open a new evolutionary stage for you and may press you to clarify your place in the larger scheme of things. You could find yourself asking: what ideals are worth committing to? And what do you feel passionate about fostering in the context of community?
On June 5th, as Venus moves into her home sign of Taurus, there’s an invitation to soften. For you, this means possibly retreating a bit from the social swirl. Venus in your twelfth sector of unconscious process favors restoration, subtle beauty, and the kind of pleasure that comes through surrender. You may wish for this four-week transit to be a time to support your nervous system and downshift. You’ve been navigating change on multiple levels, and your recent growth spurts may require ample time to integrate. This is a wonderful moment for dreaming, sleeping, or engaging with art and music that restore your inner world.
One of the biggest transitions of the month arrives on June 9th, as Jupiter enters its exalted placement in Cancer and your second sector of resources, values, and self-worth. Jupiter hasn’t visited this part of your chart in over a decade, and it arrives with some expansion of your sense of monetary abundance, and a spirited exploration of your worth and values. Yet this arrival is accompanied by some potential emotional turbulence, as Jupiter squares Saturn and Neptune in Aries or your social sector. With this dynamic you may feel a tension between the need to secure tangible stability and the longing to align with a larger, more visionary sense of purpose. These questions may echo through your friendships or professional networks: Who and what genuinely support your growth? Are you investing your time where it truly matters, or scattering your energy too thin? Greater sensitivity around how you allocate your attention may emerge now – alongside a powerful invitation to clarify your priorities and build from a place of deeper self-trust.
On June 11th, The Sagittarius Full Moon arrives in your seventh sector of relationships, illuminating partnership connection and presence in your life or potential benefit, offering clarity around the ways you relate to others and yourself. As the Sun continues to shine strongly in your sign, this lunation reflects your own individual sense of growth, perhaps through the mirror or promise of another. With Jupiter, Sagittarius’s ruler, now exalted in Cancer but still in a tense square to Saturn and Neptune, this moment brings up themes of projection, honesty, and trust. You might want to ask: Who sees you clearly? Who do you feel safe being fully visible with? There’s a strong sense of threshold here, a release of outdated relational patterns and an opportunity to rewrite the story of how you connect. This is a Moon for bold truth-telling, tender listening, and to lean into spaces internally and externally that allow you to feel safe to explore freely.
On June 20th, the Cancer Solstice arrives when the Sun moves into that sign and joins Jupiter, marking an important juncture. This day holds potent emotional energy, especially affecting your sector of values and resources. The Sun-Jupiter conjunction continues to illuminate the square to Saturn and Neptune, and also its inconjunct to transformational Pluto, stirring questions around how your material life reflects your inner sense of value and the way that your beliefs and worldview are evolving. There may be moments where hope and doubt seem to coexist. Two powerful Yod configurations – with focus on both Pluto and Mars – add a sense of gravity and passion to the choices you’re making now. You may feel pulled toward simultaneously idealism and practicality, and choosing between bold leaps and small, necessary steps. Mars in Virgo supports a grounded approach, encouraging discernment over distraction and inviting a quiet fierceness in everyday choices. The focus is on prioritizing nervous system stability, especially as the current worldly context continues to demand deep resilience in the face of ongoing challenges.
The month’s last full week features the Cancer New Moon on June 25th, which offers a deeply emotional reset around your relationship with security, trust, and abundance. The Sun and Moon in this lunation conjunct Jupiter, reverberating themes of nourishment and inner safety which were emphasized in the Cancer Solstice. With its ongoing Yod formations still active, this New Moon continues the month’s attention to slow metamorphosis. There may be a call to weave together your emotional and material lives, and to honor intuition and structure, heart and will. This is a time to align your actions with your values and to listen closely to the quiet, insistent truths within you. You might be reminded that you are not meant to do this alone. Another take-away is that you can always ask for support or share your vision. You win when you allow yourself to be reshaped by the nature of what’s rising up now to meet you.
This is another transformational month for you, Cancer, affecting in particular your unconscious process of deep-diving beneath the surface layers of your psyche, along with resultant changes to your work in the world and public persona. There is an important stellium in Aries, or your sector of career and profession, that was triggered in the rather intense configuration of the recent Gemini New Moon from the last days of the previous month, governing June. This New Moon event also highlighted an exact Chiron- Eris conjunction in this same sector, which could speak to questions of inner wounding that you could be ready to address. The Eris presence emphasizes the effects of Chiron, the Wounded Healer, and implies that working more closely with issues of your own inner wounding could be very powerful for you now – as relates to your soul intention for this lifetime. These issues arise from childhood trauma that you were not ready to deal with in your younger years. The recipe is to no longer ignore this old residue of ancient trauma but instead to pay loving attention to these walled-off hurt places within you and seek to better integrate them with your more mature and confident adult self. As the June month continues to unfold, you might also find that you are dealing with issues of intimacy and of evolving partnership agreement. The Sagittarius Full Moon of the 11th is another impactful juncture, when issues of self and other predominate and when Jupiter newly in your sign squares Saturn and Neptune in their close Aries conjunction, lighting up your career sector with potential adjustments, evolution, and greater recognition. New wrinkles on inner wounding could additionally emerge. The most important configuration of the month is likely to be the Cancer Solstice in your sign of the evening of June 20th, strongly emphasizing transformation, information, and action. This involves processing both conscious and intuitional information.

This June astrology stirs your inner world and outer path in equal measure, beginning with the Gemini New Moon from May 26th in your twelfth sector of dreams, retreat, unconscious process, and subtle energy. This recent New Moon governs the next thirty-days of its lunation cycle lasting almost all of June. With Mercury as its ruling planet, at home in Gemini and trine with Pluto in this configuration plus sextile Saturn and Neptune, this potent event initiates a subtle but potent shift in your awareness. Your subconscious could feel unusually active, bringing forward insights that will help you compost old fears and outdated patterns, allowing you to make space for something new. You may feel a soft pulse of reinvention – quiet, but foundational. Saturn’s recent entry into Aries, joining Neptune there, opens an entirely new chapter; their potent conjunction throughout the summer is just beginning to shape a new architecture for your public life and vocational calling. This lunation could help you attune to the inner call that precedes and weaves with other significant outer changes that will likely be in store for you as you emerge into an entirely new era!
On June 5th, as Venus enters its home sign of Taurus your social sphere comes into focus. This placement encourages a deeper enjoyment of friendships, creative collaborations, and shared values. It may be a time to return to community connections that nourish you, or to notice where the quality of mutual support is present, and you are weaving the threads with your birds of a feather. Reconnecting with what feels connective and life-affirming within your wider networks may offer a surprising sense of security and stability for you, now.
Then comes a major (and exciting!) shift: on June 9th, Jupiter enters its place of exaltation in your sign. This is a fertile and friendly transit for you. It’s important to note that Jupiter hasn’t visited your sign in over a decade. Because he is exalted here, his gifts for you can emerge with more grace, allowing the new you to fully blossom. You may notice an influx of confidence, optimism, and more emotional presence – or perhaps just feeling more at home in your own skin. Jupiter supports growth in self-trust and encourages you to take up space with more courage and clarity. Yet Jupiter’s arrival is not without complexity. He concurrently squares Saturn and Neptune in Aries and touches those important angular first and tenth sectors for you – which could stir tension between your personal expansion and your evolving public roles. You might feel the pull to be more visible or step into new leadership, while simultaneously confronting uncertainty about how exactly that’s supposed to look. Be gentle with yourself. Perhaps success doesn’t mean having it all figured out; rather it is honoring the truth of your process of learning, and allowing yourself space for the breadth and depth of your emotional experience, and grace to follow the non-linear path of your growth.
The Sagittarius Full Moon of June 11th lights up your sixth sector of work environment, health, and routine. Ruled by Jupiter, now exalted in your sign, this lunation may amplify a desire to change how you tend to your body and daily life. You may suddenly see what old and outmoded habit patterns need to shift in order to support your well-being more sustainably. Any storylines around burnout, overextension, or lack of focus may come to a head – and with it, the impulse to liberate yourself from those that are no longer aligned. You win when you can let this Full Moon offer clarity and encouragement to your thirsty soul. Even small adjustments count; they are simply following little sparks of what feels delightful and life affirming and can catalyze big transformations over time.
On June 20th, the Sun marks the Cancer Solstice – entering your sign in what is rightfully called your Birthday season – Happy Solar Return! The Northern Hemisphere summer solstice this year makes for an extra-powerful pivot point. The Sun’s conjunction with Jupiter amplifies your presence and visibility, while the simultaneous squares to Saturn and Neptune bring gravity and responsibility into the mix. You may feel called to reimagine how you communicate or take up space, not from a place of proving, but from an anchoring in self-worth. Two Yods – complex aspects of karmic refinement – further intensify this moment, bringing Pluto, Saturn-Neptune, Sun-Jupiter, and Mars in Virgo into an unusual mutually complex dance of integration. This is multilayered and quite intense and may have you feeling like you’re threading the eye of an invisible needle. You are asked to move with discernment, yet also fierce conviction, especially in how you communicate and wield your power. Consider where precision can serve clarity, and where tenderness can be a potent articulation of your power.
The New Moon in your sign in the last full week of the month, taking place on June 25th, seals it with a potent invitation to come home to yourself. With Sun and Moon still conjunct Jupiter, this lunation echoes the solstice vibes noted above, and begins a new personal cycle steeped in emotional wisdom, self-compassion, and feeling at home in your own skin. The emphasis on Cancer isn’t just about sensitivity; it’s also about inner strength born from feeling deeply. You may notice where old emotional protections are ready to be gently dismantled, making space for new frameworks of care, belonging, and soul-centered expansion. This is a time to reset your emotional compass and remember that your capacity to feel is not a weakness – it truly is one of your greatest gifts and guiding lights.
This is another high-intensity month for you, Leo, with the potent Gemini New Moon from the end of the previous month lighting up your social sector and with Mars also highlighted in your sign. This month also features Saturn and Neptune conjoined in Aries, or your sector of higher mind. They were sextiled by Mercury in this recent New Moon that governs most of the current month, implying that you are seriously investigating in your own way the mystical side of life that counterbalances the strictly logical and rational world of consensus thought. The emphasis on your eleventh or social sector includes your societal contribution, a thought-provoking consideration of where your creativity goes as it moves out into the wider world of your surrounding community. It is also possible that inner wounding comes into the equation of where your philosophical inquiry is taking you. You are primed for action of one kind or another that includes inward-looking investigations of long-buried internal complexes and of finding spiritual glory in the course of ordinary day-to-day activities. The Sagittarius Full Moon of the 11th could be a valuable signpost which casts new light on your creative self-expression as relates to how it manifests, along with your hidden depths, representing a culmination of your developmental arc for this current monthly cycle. The Cancer Solstice of June 20th represents another powerful juncture that more fully emphasizes what is going on below the surface layers of your psyche. Your current evolution leads you toward unconscious elements within you becoming more fully conscious, providing significant clues as to where your most sincere values lie.

Your month begins in the afterglow of the Gemini New Moon from May 26th, activating your eleventh sector of friends, community, and goals. This lunation is light on its feet but deep in its implications. Mercury’s rulership here – alongside its co-presence with the Sun and Moon in Gemini – lends you mental agility and an openness to new connections, while its trine to Pluto in Aquarius in your seventh or partnership sector suggests that certain relationships may carry deep transformational weight for you right now. Adding further dimension, this is the first lunation with Saturn and Neptune freshly conjunct in early Aries! They also now form a sextile to Mercury nearby Sun and Moon in one direction and Pluto in the other. Transformation is in the air for you along with profound shifts in your relationships, also affecting your beliefs and values. The presence of Saturn and Neptune together in your ninth sector of higher mind opens a new life chapter, and points to an emerging spiritual or philosophical framework that can support your collaborative personal growth. You might feel called to reflect upon the values that underpin your attitude toward groups and communities that you favor, or to reflect on the long-term ripple effects of the work you’re doing now. There’s something stirring within you including who you’re doing it all with, so that clarifying those underlying shared intentions could be helpful in shaping your path forward.
On June 5th, Venus enters Taurus moving into your tenth sector of vocation and public presence. This brings warmth, charm, and possibly new visibility to your professional life. It’s a time when creative expression and aesthetic values may influence your career path. You’re supported in forging a direction that feels both beautiful, authentic, and aligned with your voice and values. Pay attention to what draws your desire, not just your sense of duty.
Another major alteration arrives on June 9th, as Jupiter enters Cancer and your twelfth sector of dreams, imagination, and unconscious process, beginning a year-long cycle of introspective growth. Jupiter’s exaltation there is subtle but profound for you. This presence doesn’t shout, but it sings in your dreams, intuitions, and moments of quiet knowing. This is a time to replenish your spiritual reserves, tend your inner flame, and prepare for future emergence. Yet Jupiter’s square to Saturn and Neptune in Aries may stir questions about belief, meaning, or the direction of your growth. You might wrestle with tensions between faith and fact, or between your personal truth and collective narratives. These aren’t distractions – they’re essential waypoints on your evolving path.
On June 11th, the Sagittarius Full Moon lights up your fifth house of creativity, romance, and self-expression. This is a Fire sign lunation in harmony with your own fiery nature, offering a potent release and illumination. Your creative self-expression is kindled, with the balance of questioning for who and for what subset of society you are aiming. You may feel an urge to create, to declare yourself from the heart, or to let go of a dysfunctional storyline in favor of a better one that does not stifle your joy. Jupiter is emphasized again, being the ruler of this Full Moon, echoing its reverberations from the depths. There’s an energy here encouraging you to link your creative outlets with your subconscious, allowing your inner palace to be made manifest through your pen, paintbrush, or poetry. This Full Moon reminds you: pleasure and passion are not frivolous. They’re fuel for the soul.
The Cancer Solstice arrives on June 20th as the Sun enters your twelfth house, conjoining with Jupiter in his square to Saturn and Neptune. This is a powerful moment of luminous stillness and psychic depth for you. The Sun–Jupiter conjunction of this lunation can inspire dreams of vast scope, while the square to Saturn and Neptune challenge you to sort flights of fancy from your central truth. There’s also a pair of Yods unfolding – involving the square between Sun-Jupiter with Saturn-Neptune, as well as their focus on Pluto in Aquarius and Mars in Virgo. This energy is complex and dynamic, but its point of outlet indicates the importance of managing your resources and prioritizing your sense of self-worth. This timing asks that you also keep a close eye on your evolving experience of personal power in the context of relationships. You may want to ask: How do you share and balance the reciprocal nature of power in your close connections? There’s a sense of precision being called for in this time; clearing away the clutter and tending with discernment to where you put your energy becomes paramount.
In the last full week of the month, the Cancer New Moon of June 25th deepens this inward pull. Conjunct Jupiter and surrounded by supportive aspects, this lunation marks the beginning of a cycle of spiritual renewal, quiet creation, and trust in what is unseen. It may not feel flashy, but it may very well be foundational. This may be a time to retreat, recharge, and realign with your deepest intentions. You could notice your dreams and inner voice with important messages for you, so that the following month might be a potent time to tend to potential forgotten places within your inner garden. Sometimes the most courageous thing you can do is listen in the dark and follow a meandering path to places less travelled. You win when you allow yourself time and space to peer with compassion and curiosity into the corners of your own internal mysteries… and you may be surprised by what you find there.
This is a month of transformational progress, Virgo, as the recent New Moon in Gemini from the end of last month shows. Throughout the June month, your sense of identity is shifting, and your career and professional life choices also, perhaps along the lines of integrating cherished internal values. Habit patterns that have been long-established might be ready to shift; issues of health could require you to recognize unexpected novel germinations along with what is on the other hand deeply familiar, depending on where your evolving worldview is currently taking you. There is a concentrated focus on depth studies within and what partners contribute from without, along with greater recognition of your internal moral compass that points the way forward. Your commitment is strong right now toward doing the right thing in an existing situation, or to feel the urge to rise to the occasion as far as partnership commitment is concerned. With Chiron- Eris featured in combination in the recent New Moon that governs the current month, it is more than possible for inner wounding to raise its head, calling for attention, and perhaps thereby becoming an important component of your evolutionary process. If subtle evidence of hurt and walled-off painful places within you should appear – the unintegrated residue of early childhood trauma – it is best to give these hidden complexes within you loving acceptance and attention, allowing them to feel more welcome at the table of your awareness and better integrated. The Full Moon in Sagittarius of June 11th makes for an important juncture, raising the issue of private versus public concerns, and is also when Chiron is again strongly highlighted, bringing a new level to issues with internal wounding. This second half of the month might also be when you are celebrating social interaction with friends or with groups you favor, plus your societal contribution as well as longer term goals that you are only now beginning to truly fathom.

The month begins under the lingering influence of the Gemini New Moon from May 26th, which sets the stage for new developments in your tenth sector of career, visibility, and public direction. With Mercury – your ruling planet – powerfully placed at home there in Gemini and co-present with the Sun and Moon, this lunation brings clarity and communication to the forefront of your vocational life. You may feel mentally invigorated around your professional goals or inspired to speak your truth more publicly. Mercury’s trine to Pluto in Aquarius in your sixth sector adds gravity to your words, suggesting that what you express now could shape long-term systems or ripple through your outer world work in profound ways. Meanwhile, Saturn and Neptune have just entered Aries in your eighth sector of intimacy and personal transformation for the first time in decades, and this New Moon marks their first appearance in this sign together in their conjunction – which will last all summer. This opens a potent new chapter of diving deep and coming to a greater understanding of your inner workings, to include intimacy with yourself and with others in your partnership or innermost circle. These two are quietly forming sextiles to both Mercury and Pluto in this New Moon configuration, inviting you to align your mental vision with deeper, more spiritual commitments. There could be an undertone of initiation here, where professional clarity might require emotional reckoning or energetic integration behind your scenes.
On June 5th, Venus enters Taurus and your ninth house of travel, learning, and big-picture perspective. This is a softening influence, helping you find beauty in broader horizons. Whether through actual journeys, creative study, or a philosophical exploration, you’re being encouraged to reconnect with a sense of wonder and spaciousness. This transit reminds you that growth doesn’t always have to be a grind, as it can come through pleasure, connection, and devotion to your higher learning and path.
Mercury, your ruler, enters Cancer on the evening of the 8th, or your eleventh sector of friendship, community, and future goals, which might seem like a rather large shift in emphasis for you. This month’s ongoing focus on career and professional life has its logical outlet in community, after all.
One of the month’s (and year’s!) most significant events arrives on June 9th, as Jupiter enters Cancer, joining Mercury already there, and your eleventh sector of community and future vision. Jupiter hasn’t been in this part of your chart in over a decade, and its exalted placement there suggests expansive new possibilities are opening through friendships, networks, and shared dreams, further emphasized by the co-presence there of Mercury. That said, Jupiter and Mercury’s square to Saturn and Neptune in Aries suggests this growth won’t be entirely seamless. There may be tension between the joy of collective belonging and the vulnerability inherent in deepening into closeness with others. Certain ideals or fantasies about collaboration may give way to more practical considerations, discernment, or renegotiated boundaries. This isn’t about closing yourself off – perhaps it’s more about choosing with careful intent where you invest your emotional and energetic resources.
The Full Moon in Sagittarius on June 11th lights up your fourth house of home, family, psychological roots, and belonging, bringing culmination or insight around your living situation and your emotional foundation. Issues of family of origin are not excluded, and evidence of inner wounding is also a possibility, with a Mars-Chiron partile of same0degree trine in this Full Moon configuration. If such troublesome ideas and feelings due come up for you, an approach that can be very helpful is to put some time in on meditative acceptance of these hurt and hidden places within you. Giving these internal spaces some love can be geared or a longer time perspective on eventual integration and healing. Also, because Jupiter rules this lunation and is now exalted, there’s plentiful support for growth here, especially the potential for finding greater capaciousness and joy in becoming more rooted in your private spaces. This isn’t entirely without tension, however, since Jupiter is still navigating the square with Saturn and Neptune, while Pluto is also emphasized, so that your sense of home may be shifting. You might want to ask yourself: Are you making space for the fullness of who you’re becoming? Also, what old patterns around family or emotional safety within you might be ready to evolve?
As the Sun enters Cancer on June 20th, marking the Solstice, your awareness turns more fully toward community, friendship, and the larger networks you’re part of. The Sun’s conjunction with Jupiter in this dynamic configuration suggests bright potential in these spaces, while the square to Saturn and Neptune highlights the emotional labor often involved in relating and belonging. There are also two Yod formations at this time – involving Sun-Jupiter, Neptune-Saturn, and focus on Pluto and Mars. With Mars currently in your sign, these aspects land close to home. There is the potential for passion, even anger, to emerge. You may feel pressured to act or lead with discernment, even under emotional uncertainty. There’s no perfect solution, but it’s helpful to remember that your choices do carry weight. It may also be helpful now to prioritize practices and ways of being that foster embodied presence and steadiness. When in doubt, you can always slow down and listen to your body and benefit by somatic awareness.
The final full week centers on the Cancer New Moon of the 25th, with Sun and Moon closely conjunct Jupiter and the New Mood in general echoing many of the month’s themes. This could be a potent moment for reconnecting with collective purpose, or planting seeds around shared goals. This isn’t only about what you’re doing – it’s also about how you’re being, and with whom you are teaming up. The invitation here is to lead with care, to allow emotional truth to guide your collaborations, and to make space for joy within the broader arc of transformation. As a Virgo, you often carry the weight of refinement and responsibility. This lunation may remind you, as you prepare to enter the July month, that participation in the future isn’t just about fixing what’s broken, it’s about tending to what makes life feel meaningful, beautiful, and alive.
This is another intense and interesting month, Libra, for you and everyone else. The Saturn-Neptune conjunction is now far more well-connected with other planets since both of these outer planets now lie in Aries, near its beginning degree, and are featured in the recent Gemini New Moon and therefore throughout the month, perhaps for Librans most especially in the month’s second half, after the Cancer Solstice of the 20th. Saturn-Neptune at this level of intensity begins to expose the underlying mystical nature of hard-and-fast 3D reality, and also stabilizes fantasy and punctures intended deceptions. Right from June’s beginning, relationship is also especially on your mind, due to a stellium in Aries or your partnership sector, and with that sector’s ruler, Mars, in trine with Venus, your own chart ruler. Partner’s might provide an illumination of philosophy or occasion to see through misconceptions or misinformation. It’s more than possible that – as the month continues to unfold – you will encounter many new ideas about what your relationships, either current or potential, imply for your own soul growth, as well as how to better integrate with your more conscious awareness the material that continues bubbling up from your unconscious. Your sector of higher mind, educational initiatives, and worldview is fully stimulated this month as well, and you might get the travel bug too, as another way to expand your mental and physical horizons. The Sagittarius Full Moon of the 11th speaks to you of self and other, as well as curiosity, communication and learning. When the Cancer Solstice hits, on June 20th, Venus in Taurus aligns with both the Cancer Sun a 0° as well as Jupiter conjunct at 2°and the Neptune/Saturn position in early Aries, presaging a summer of transpersonal activity with powerful implications for your career and professional life.
The following was written by our wonderful in-house astrologer, Leslie Benson. You can find her at https://www.astrologyforawakening.com/
June begins in the wake of the Gemini New Moon from May 26th, a few days prior to its start. The lunation cycle follows for the next thirty days, so includes most of the June month. This New Moon configuration activated your ninth house of higher learning, travel, and worldview, and carried a bright, curious energy, since Mercury is at home in Gemini and is co-present there with the Sun and Moon, lending mental stimulation and a hunger for meaningful exchange. A trine to transformational Pluto in Aquarius brings a deeper tenor, and one that shines the light on the far-reaching metamorphosis your creativity may be undergoing with Pluto’s current passage through your fifth sector of joy and self-expression. There’s a renewed sense of purpose stirring in the background – something about what you believe and how you live it may be shifting into sharper focus. Saturn has just entered Aries, joining Neptune there, forming a significant conjunction together for the first time in decades, with this being the first lunation since they’ve arrived in their conjunction in this cardinal Fire sign. Perched in your seventh sector of relationships, these two powerful planets form soft sextiles to Mercury and to Pluto, suggesting that the changes you’re navigating in belief or perspective may be closely tied to evolving dynamics in partnership and connection. You might also be looking to key partners in your life for help in navigating the interchange between the physical 3D world of hard and fast reality and the dreamy picture-scape of what lies – on the other hand – completely beyond the physical. This is a dynamic time that invites the honing of your unique creative fingerprint, and refining also how you dance with others, particularly in the context of important relationships.
On June 5th, your ruling planet, Venus, enters Taurus, warming your eighth house of intimacy, shared resources, and psychological depth. This transit may draw you deeper into bonds that require vulnerability and trust or illuminate patterns around merging and separation. There can be beauty in facing what’s been hidden, especially if you’re willing to be unflinchingly honest with yourself about what you’re holding – and why. Venus’ passages here may remind you of the depth of your feeling nature and remind you of the intrinsic value of your embodied awareness and sensual nature.
From the 8th to the 9th, Venus is square to Pluto, perfecting on June 9th. The transformational impulse that is visiting your creative sector and is also affecting your beliefs and worldview might get a sudden boost.
Also on June 9th, a major shift occurs as Jupiter enters Cancer, moving into your tenth sector of vocation, calling, and public visibility. This is an uplifting and powerful transit for you, as Jupiter is exalted in Cancer, and hasn’t visited this part of your chart in over a decade. You may feel the stirrings of expansion in your professional life or a new sense of emotional alignment with your public role. However, Jupiter squares Saturn and Neptune, reminding you that growth in the outer world often requires reconciliation and adjustment in the relational realms. You might want to be asking yourself about your life connections and their support for what you are engaged this month in building. Or also about what dreams or illusions about partnership need to be released in order for your purpose to come into clearer view. The tension here doesn’t mean you’re off track, it rather means that there is likely new awareness blossoming within you.
The Sagittarius Full Moon of June 11th lands in your third sector of communication and local environment, potentially bringing opportune conversations, or new contracts. Your curiosity and learning are stimulated, potentially leading you to new realizations and belief systems. Because Jupiter rules this lunation and is still navigating his square to Saturn and Neptune, whatever culminates at this timing may feel emotionally charged. There is movement here, and a story that is ripening. What message do you need to deliver, or what truth are you finally ready to receive?
June 20th marks the Cancer Solstice, as the Sun moves into this sign corresponding to your career sector, conjoining Jupiter. This seasonal threshold is quite a significant juncture for you. Both the Sun and Jupiter square Saturn and Neptune are tangled up in two Yod formations focused on Pluto and Mars. You may feel pulled between the drive to show up powerfully in your public life and the need to honor complexity in your close connections. Mars in Virgo activates your twelfth house, adding pressure that may be hard to name – subconscious patterns or buried fears could be surfacing. Your unconscious process is compelling and deserving of recognition. This complex and powerful time could feel a little like threading the eye of some invisible needle. You benefit when you surrender into trust in the cosmic currents and choose courage and tenacity over perfection. Remember that your presence in and of itself is powerful.
Mid-week in the last full week of the month, the Cancer New Moon on June 25th begins the next cycle with a potent new beginning mightily affecting your career and public life. Closely aligned with Jupiter, this lunation invites you to seed new intentions around your long-term goals – not just what you want to build, but how you want to feel as you build it. You’re being asked to lead with heart, even when the path forward may feel uncertain. You win when you can trust in the power of meaningful connection, and let your integrity be the inner compass that carries you in spite of all other competing influences.
This is another interesting month of difficult and yet rewarding astrological indications, Scorpio. There are adjustments in the works for you and for others around you, so that the major problem lies in recognizing that certain things in your life are changing and being able to go with it. That is to say, to give up clinging to an already out-of-date set of behavior patterns and accept these changes as inevitable. The recent Gemini New Moon from the end of last month, that governs June’s cycle, featured transformative Pluto in Aquarius, the sector of your chart concerned with home and family, along with your psychological roots, and that is where things may be unavoidably altering for you. Your family dynamic is involved, and unconscious process within you, also, potentially, issues arising from your family of origin. The Gemini sector of your chart references inner work, exploring your own depths, also intimacy issues with your relationships and partnership agreements, and all these areas are thus subject to a fresh start this month. Your sense of your life purpose is also shifting, and this contributes to where things are going for you as you take this idea more completely into account. The Sagittarius Full Moon of June 11th represents an important milestone in this month’s personal evolution, bringing forth issues of self and other, as well as ideas about recognizing your internal principles more clearly. Then, too, the Cancer Solstice of June 20th marks an entirely significant juncture as well, bringing many areas of your life into closer and more purposeful connection with each other, and echoes relationship impacts from your own internal changes. Your long-term goals are also shifting in accordance with what values you hold deep inside, as you recognize where your true authenticity lies.

The June month begins for you in the afterglow of the recent Gemini New Moon from May 26th, which initiated a fresh thirty-day cycle in your eighth sector of intimacy, shared resources, and psychological depth. With Mercury ruling this lunation, and co-present with the Sun and Moon in Gemini, there’s a mental sharpness to what’s unfolding, but this lunation touches deep below the surface of your mind, and into the very depths of your psyche. A trine from Mercury to Pluto in Aquarius in your fourth or domestic sector suggests that your home and family situation as well as your psychological roots are being stimulated for new growth – perhaps through familial matters, a private reckoning, or a profound realization about your inner foundations. There’s a sense that the ideas or conversations arising now can deeply inform your growing edge and illuminate your blind spots. Intuitive information could shape your understanding of partners and yourself, deep down. With both Saturn newly arrived in Aries, conjuncting Neptune, in your sixth sector of day-to-day events and environment, the changes taking place within you could ripple into your daily routines and health habits. This area of your life is also opening into a new dynamic chapter, and one that may ask of you to create a new way of being in your mundane life that is more in tune with a new dimension of your spiritual wellness. These planets in their conjunction are sextile to both Mercury and Pluto, offering a subtle but significant invitation to ground your transformation through new choices, fresh approaches, and practical magic.
Venus enters her home sign of Taurus on June 5th, warming your seventh sector of partnership. This is a sweet, stabilizing influence that can deepen trust and beauty in your one-on-one bonds. Whether romantic, platonic, or professional, your relationships may feel more sensual and grounded now. You’re drawn to what feels real – what endures, what soothes, what honors the body. Still, Venus in this earthy sign could bring up questions around balance, value, and patterns that you may be working through in relationships.
June 9th marks a major shift; Jupiter enters Cancer and your ninth sector of wisdom, expansion, and belief. This exalted placement only comes once every twelve years, and it can feel like a breath of fresh air after its journey through the intense terrain of your eighth sector. You may feel a renewed hunger for spiritual exploration, higher education, or travel. Yet with Jupiter square to Saturn and Neptune in your day-to-day sector, the invitation to grow also comes with a need to tend to your physical or mental health. There may be tension between your desire to escape and your responsibility to stay grounded in the everyday. Ask yourself: What beliefs truly nourish your wellbeing? What practices help your spirit thrive, and your nervous system stabilize?
The Sagittarius Full Moon on June 11th lights up your second sector of resources, calling attention to how you’re supporting yourself. This lunation may reveal a facet of your financial patterns, or a turning point in how you value your time, skills, and energy. As Jupiter rules this Moon, it has a buoyancy to it, yet with Jupiter square to Saturn and Neptune, this adds emotional undertones – perhaps you’re navigating certain confusions around money and meaning or beginning to see patterns around your internal sense of self-worth, as well as your external sense of material values. You can allow this Full Moon to show you not only what’s possible, but also what is sustainable. It is also possible that you will gain some important new ideas about internal wounding, as Mars, your traditional ruler, is closely trine to Chiron, the Wounded Healer in this lunation.
From June 12th to the 16th, perfecting on the 15th, Mars squares Uranus which adds a factor of trickster surprise and unexpected enlightenment to your days. It is possible that career decisions might be more empowered in this timing by intuitional information arising straight from your own unconscious process. If so, you win when you can stay as open as possible to these inner stirrings, remote though thy might be from the pure logic of mental conjecture.
The Cancer Solstice lands on June 20th, which is a very special juncture within this month’s cycle, illuminating your ninth sector of higher mind, beliefs, and worldview, and with the Sun joining Jupiter in the early degrees of this sign. This marks a spiritual and intellectual turning point – and also introduces complexity. The Sun reinforces Jupiter in his square to Saturn and Neptune, while the four are also participating in a double Yod, the focus there being Mars and Pluto. Passions could arise, along with the energy to engender needed change. This complex configuration could prompt a reckoning with your pre-existing worldview. You might feel pulled between logic and faith, action and surrender. Mars, your traditional ruler, is now in Virgo at this point, urging discernment and strategic action in your eleventh sector of community and goals. Yet the pressure to “get it right” might have the disadvantage of clouding the deeper truth: there’s no perfect map, only the next honest step in search of that. You win when you can allow yourself space for your transformation to unfold organically, leaning into your emerging sense of self-trust as you navigate the unfamiliar terrain.
The Cancer New Moon on June 25th initiates in your ninth solar sector of higher mind the Sun and Moon’s next lunation cycle that will manifest over the following July month; bringing with it a powerful presence bolstering your sense of vision, adventure, and personal philosophy. This cycle – closely aligned with Jupiter – encourages you to dream bigger, but also to clarify your compass. Where do you long to go, and what are you ready to leave behind? This isn’t just about distant destinations; it’s about internal pilgrimage, and heart-centered presence. You’re being asked to claim your truth and sprout some beautiful new wings to fly with, even if it means releasing the structures that no longer fit who you’re becoming. Even your toes are sinking deeply into the places ahead where the road rises to meet you.
Sagittarius Horoscope June 2025
SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 - Dec 21) Fire. Ruling Planet Jupiter
This is another rather intense month of change, Sagittarius, with an emphasis on relationship. This is due to the recent Gemini New Moon taking place in your opposite sign. In addition to the extra focus on partners there is also an Aries stellium revealed particularly in the recent New Moon that governs almost the entire June month. This implies that in June, your creative self-expression will be featured too, along with possible struggles with inner wounding that might get in the way of your fullest authenticity. The recent New Moon featured a powerful conjunction of Chiron and Eris, which implies that getting a better handle on ancient internal complexes that have long been buried away could be life changing and connected with soul intention. It’s certain that becoming more conscious of hidden hurt places deep within you can enable you to inhabit more fully who you really are. Outer planets are also featured this month, such as transformational Pluto in your communications sector, an indication that – as you more closely investigate your depths – your style of articulation and learning could be evolving. The close conjunction of Saturn and Neptune is also featured in your sector of creativity and joy; illusions might be exposed regarding your creative output or romantic inclinations, while the mystical within you becomes more down to earth. Internal polarization additionally could manifest, requiring discernment. With The Full Moon in your sign of June 11th, issues of self and other get advanced. This potent juncture represents a culmination of a sort regarding the process of this important lunation cycle’s first two weeks. Relationships can bring surprises and unexpected realizations, or changes in partnership agreements. When the Cancer Solstice hits on June 20th, intimacy is invoked along with an even more thoroughly grounded mysticism. A more active vocational stance is indicated, with implications for allowing your most cherished internal principles and values to increasingly stand up as career choices and goals.

The month opens in the afterglow of the Gemini New Moon on May 26th, which took place in your opposite sign, illuminating nearly the entire June month with an emphasis on your seventh sector of relationships. This fresh cycle may signal you initiating new connections or breathing more life into existing ones, at the same time bringing new ideas and creative notions into the fore. With Mercury in rulership over this New Moon, and conjunct the Sun and Moon in Gemini, there’s an aura of mental sharpness and an effervescence that can inspire you to bring your conversations to life, especially in one-on-one dynamics. The lunation is also trine to Pluto in Aquarius in your third sector of communications, curiosity, and learning, which suggests that discussions at this time also carry deeper transformative potential. Pluto’s long journey through this area of your chart indicates that you may be undergoing a long-term process of change in how you learn new material, understand your world, and the ways in which you communicate your ideas. With Uranus hovering on the edge of your relationship sector, there is also an implications that you might encounter surprises in this important area, or unexpected revelations.
Woven into this communicative and relational activity is another recent shift that opens a profound new chapter in your expression. Saturn and Neptune are now conjunct in Aries, or your fifth sector of creativity, romance, and joy, with Saturn newly entered into this sign. This is the first lunation since these planets came together in Aries, and they are sextile to both the Mercury Sun/Moon position and Pluto. These aspects suggest a deeply spiritual opening, as well as discovering new ways you might want to commit to your creative path. You are being asked to mature in how you infuse your creativity with vision, also grounding, as you more meaningly express joy, and stay intentional about what and who you pour your energy into.
On June 5th, Venus enters her home sign of earthy Taurus bringing sweetness and steadiness to your sixth sector of work, health, and daily rhythms. This transit can lend stabilizing vibes to your routines and invite you into adopting daily habits that prioritize your embodied enjoyment while also supporting your health goals. You might feel inspired to make your workspace more beautiful, invest in your physical well-being, or bring more pleasure and beauty into your daily flow.
A major turning point of the whole year arrives on June 9th as your ruling planet, Jupiter, enters Cancer for the first time since 2013. This initiates a new approximately year-long cycle of expansion affecting your eighth house of shared resources, intimacy, and transformation. Jupiter is exalted in Cancer, giving you access to emotional depth, spiritual insight, and perhaps some financial support through collaborative or familial channels. Yet this jubilant entry also comes with some immediate friction, because Jupiter squares Saturn and Neptune in Aries, fostering complexity in this area and raising questions about what is truly sustainable in your creative life or romantic relationships. This tension invites you to clarify your intentions in your intimate and romantic life and contemplate the psychological underpinnings that have historically shaped your choices and behaviors.
On June 11th, the Full Moon in your sign shines a radiant light on your personal evolution, illuminating your first solar sector of self-hood and identity. Jupiter being the ruling planet of your sign as well as this Full Moon, and newly entered into Cancer as described above, this lunation speaks directly to your hunger for truth, meaning, and expansion, and may bring a moment of clarity around your personal story. This applies to where you may have been living in loops, and where new life chapters are ready to unfold. The ongoing square from Jupiter to Saturn and Neptune in Aries suggests that breaking free from old frameworks may require courage and discernment, and grounded imagination. Still, the pull toward growth is unmistakable. Let this Full Moon be a threshold – one that marks your movement out of outdated patterns and into a renewed vision that centers your emotional truth, heart-space, and inner authority.
The Cancer Solstice lands on June 20th and represents a powerful juncture, bringing a subtle but powerful turning point, as the Sun joins Jupiter in this sign, and this moment invites you to reflect on the balance between self-reliance and emotional interdependence. The Sun joining Jupiter amplifies that square to Saturn and Neptune in Aries, stirring tension between bold personal growth and the vulnerability that deep connection requires. On the solstice the Sun, Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune are involved in two Yods, also bringing Pluto and Mars, their focal planets, into the mix. This energy is complex, and dynamic, and invites a degree of precision and nuanced presence. How you direct your energy now, especially in relationships or collaborative ventures, can shape deeper patterns for the rest of the year. You benefit when you allow your heart to resonate through your choices, anchoring into your core values. Let the slow burn of digging deep for going after what you really love shape your path ahead. Relying too heavily on the thrill of novelty can come at the price of your long-term fulfillment. This current evolutionary stage is urging you to clarify your intent, go after what you find meaningful, and truly love.
The Cancer New Moon on June 25th begins the next lunation cycle, bringing tones of emotional depth and energetic renewal. This dynamic New Moon continues Jupiter’s story, offering another layer of initiation into vulnerability, energetic exchange, and emotional courage. You may feel more attuned to the give-and-take in your closest bonds, or more willing to face what intimacy truly asks of you. If you can trust what’s quietly shifting, this may bolster your faith in the universe to see you through. Even though the future is unknown, you have the opportunity to build something truly worthwhile, accessing deeper layers of trust in yourself and others. As you move forward, may you embrace the breadth of all that life is asking of you – led by your heart and wild instincts, and centering in your true creative spark as a divine, guiding light.
This is quite a month for you, Capricorn, with transformational impacts and spiritual exploration as major components. This is based on the potent Gemini New Moon from the last days of the previous month, governing the thirty-day lunation cycle that follows. This New Moon featured Saturn, your ruler, in your fourth solar sector of home, family, and your psychological roots, so that you are deep-diving within yourself for the pearl of hard-earned wisdom that is ready to emerge more fully into your conscious awareness. Because Saturn is slowly getting ever closer to Neptune nearby in this same sector, within ½ a degree by month’s end, it is an essentially mystical journey into your deep psyche that this monthly cycle provides. There could be developments in terms of the familial dynamics of your dwelling space that partake of the gentle and compassionate vibes of numinous Neptune, or perhaps of illusion or confusion from this influence also. This can be contrasted with the metamorphosis supplied by Pluto, highlighted also in this New Moon, and located in your sector of values, resources, and finances, all of which could be subject to the ongoing fluctuations that you may have been experiencing already during this climactic year. Authenticity is your endgame. You are in essence striving for greater integration of internal principles and values in alignment with your vocational choices and goals. The Full Moon of June 11th lights up your sector of dream imagination and the unconscious, marking a time of culmination for the fundamental evolutionary process in which you are now engaged. You might profit during this month’s second week by journaling your night-time dreams in order to better understand what is going on within you. The extremely volatile Cancer Solstice of the 20th makes for another noteworthy juncture in this significant monthly cycle, when partnerships in your life become a huge focus. The Sun and Jupiter there square Saturn and Neptune in your root sector with Mars, Pluto, and the new 21st century KBO planet Haumea all occupying the early degrees of their respective signs, therefore affecting you in all these desperate areas.

June begins in the wake of a cerebral yet catalyzing Gemini New Moon from a few days prior on May 26th, which activated your sixth sector of routines, health, and service, and the thirty-day lunation cycle of which governs most of June. Mercury’s rulership and presence in Gemini alongside the Sun and Moon in this New Moon configuration lends mental clarity and flexibility to your month, while its supportive trine to Pluto in Aquarius in your second sector of self-worth and resources suggests that even the smallest logistical shifts could ripple outward into broader patterns of empowerment and self-worth. You may feel called to transform how you allocate your energy, now – what you give, who you serve, and whether your current approach reflects your deepest values. Home and family concerns are also made more evident this month, as indicated by the presence in Aries or your fourth solar sector of Saturn, conjunct nebulous Neptune, implying that there are spiritual implications for your sense of familial connection during this rather intense month, which could also relate to your family of origin.
As this New Moon is the first lunation with both Saturn, your ruling planet, and Neptune in Aries there’s a palpable sense that something is shifting beneath the surface, as their conjunction activates your fourth sector of home, phycological roots, and inner foundations. This new chapter may have you reaching down deep into the fabric of your being, providing an opportunity for anchoring into a deeper sense of who you are and what sustains you at the most fundamental level – even touching the patterns that formed within you at a very young age. Saturn, now in Aries for the first time in nearly three decades, brings pressure to fortify your inner world, not with rigidity, but with honest authorship. Neptune’s presence with it casts a spiritual tone, and a dissolution process that may be disorienting, but ultimately serves as a force of re-imagining what is possible and reaching into that which is beyond the material. This time may look like the dismantling and re-creation of internal architecture – a process that invites your awareness towards your emotional resilience, and nervous system stability.
On June 5th, Venus enters her home sign of Taurus, your fifth sector of creativity, pleasure, and self-expression. This brings an earthy sensuality to your experience, encouraging you to slow down and savor beauty where it arises. Whether through artistic outlets, romantic connections, or joyful play, there’s a pull toward experiences that ground and nourish you.
A major shift occurs on June 9th, when Jupiter enters Cancer where it is exalted, illuminating your seventh sector of relationship. This transit expands your awareness of connection, bringing growth opportunities through collaboration and reflection on the bonds that matter most. At the same time, Jupiter’s square to Saturn and Neptune in Aries could stir inner tension, between your desire for rootedness and your ideals for exploring new terrain in the realms of relating. There is an emphasis on heart space, and perhaps a stretch to meet with a partner the many facets of your inner experience, as well as how that weaves with others you love and all their needs and desires. This is a potent time to recalibrate what mutual care truly looks like, clarify your commitments, and venture into new exploration with intentionality and presence.
The Sagittarius Full Moon arrives on June 11th illuminating your twelfth sector of unconscious process, dreams, and surrender. Jupiter rules this lunation, and after Jupiter’s exalted arrival in Cancer, this Full Moon brings a burst of insight and inner release. There may be an urge to finally let go of a belief, a fear, or a pattern that has run its course. With Jupiter continuing its square with Saturn and Neptune, this moment is both spiritual and sobering. You may want to ask yourself what truths are ready to emerge from beneath the surface of your awareness. You’re not just releasing the past; you’re reshaping the framework that determines what comes next.
The Cancer Solstice arrives on June 20th, marking the Sun’s ingress into that sign and a seasonal shift involving your seventh sector of reationships. The Sun joining Jupiter here brings another dimension of attention and optimism to relationships, but this moment is not without its complexity. The Sun-Jupiter square to Saturn and Neptune in Aries continues to activate a push-pull dynamic between the desire for union and the need to reinforce your inner structure. Add in two Yod formations to this square – “finger of God” aspect configurations involving Mars and Pluto as well – and you’re likely navigating relational crossroads that demand thoughtful, decisive action. This energy is complex and layered, asking nothing short of fully embracing the paradox of life, weaving antithetical energies into a dynamic whole. There are no perfect answers here, but there may be a refined path and set of choice points to move forward with, and an invitation that you listen deeply to all of your faculties, senses, and intuition as you act.
June winds down in its final full week with a New Moon in Cancer on the 25th, further echoing the themes of the Solstice and offering a renewed emotional blueprint. The Moon and Sun align closely with Jupiter and form part of the same evolutionary Yod signature. This lunation feels like a sacred pause – an opportunity to reset your relational patterns with care, presence, and integrity. Saturn’s square may highlight the cost of true commitment, but also its reward: the chance to build something enduring, heart-centered, and true to your core. May you honor what is asking to be rebuilt from the inside out; and may each choice you make become a quiet act of devotion to the life and love you’re truly here to live.
Aquarius Horoscope June 2025
AQUARIUS (Jan 20 - Feb 18) Air. Ruling Planets Uranus, Saturn
This is an interesting and rather intense month for you, Aquarius, especially regarding the highlighted presence of Pluto triggered by other planets in the early degrees of their respective signs. Pluto’s vibrant energy goes to depth within the psyche; located in your sign, this references identity and projected self-image. This June cycle therefore has much to reveal to you about the massive changes that you are currently going through. You find yourself entering a new evolutionary stage; although it has perhaps taken you some time to adjust to this simple and incontrovertible fact. In the Gemini New Moon that precedes this month, there is also a focus on creativity, joy, children, and self-expression as indicated by the presence of Sun, Moon, and Mercury in your fifth solar sector, with your modern ruler, Uranus, nearby. Your internally cherished values also have something to contribute this month and you might come to rely on them over and above consensus thought or your early conditioning. Also noteworthy this month is the conjunction of Saturn and Neptune in the first two degrees of Aries, or your communication sector. These antithetical planetary archetypes in combination indicate bringing what is essentially beyond the physical plane into more concrete form, so that you might find yourself articulating inner fantasy or attempting to resolve illusion or outright deception, perhaps in terms of journaling about them. This month would be an excellent time to begin recording your nighttime dreams in this way. The Sagittarius Full Moon of the 11th is powerful as well and speaks to you of the results of your creativity in terms of societal impact, while the subsequent Cancer Solstice of the 20th is incredibly significant also, with an aspectual focus on both Pluto in your sign and Mars in Cancer. Passion runs high at this juncture, and the transformational impact of Pluto takes on added meaning.

The stage for this month is set by the Gemini New Moon from May 26th, a lunation that primarily activates your fifth sector of creative self-expression, romance, and joy. Mercury’s themes of language and mental adaptability are essential for this New Moon, as Mercury lies in this New Moon configuration in its home sign of Gemini and is also conjunct the Sun and Moon. With Mercury trine Pluto, which is well into its long journey through your sign, there is a metamorphosis transpiring within you – one that may be inclining you to align your artistry and storytelling with a deeper truth. This is the first lunation with both Saturn newly in Aries, joining Neptune there, and these two outer planets are starting an important new life chapter centered upon your third sector of communication, curiosity, and learning, and are accentuated by harmonious sextiles from both the Mercury-Moon- Sun stellium and also transformative Pluto in your first sector of identity and projective persona. Saturn brings structure to your communication and cognitive process, while Neptune inspires imaginative openings, though he could have you feeling hazy or dreamy as well. These energies in Aries are opening a new cycle in how you think, speak, and create. You may feel drawn to express in ways that are potent, catalytic, and passionate. This time may elicit radical authenticity, especially in how you share yourself with the world.
On June 5th, Venus enters Taurus – moving through your fourth sector of home, family, and emotional foundations. Venus is in rulership in this sign, supporting you in anchoring your nervous system through beauty, sensuality, and physical comfort. Redesigning your space, reconnecting with loved ones, or tending to neglected inner needs can be especially healing now. There’s also a subtle message here about emotional safety, how softness can coexist with strength, and how prioritizing somatic pleasure can have a profound ripple effect into resilience, nervous system stability, and overall wellness.
On June 9th a major shift happens when Jupiter enters Cancer, his sign of exaltation, bringing expansion to your sixth sector of work, health, and daily rhythms. This is a significant transition in tone, as Jupiter hasn’t been in this area of your chart since 2013! You may find yourself reevaluating how you care for your body, how your work routines affect your emotional well-being, or how to infuse more nurturance and heart-felt vibes into the mundane moments. Jupiter here magnifies your desire to be of service in a way that feels nourishing and life-affirming. However, his square to Saturn and Neptune in Aries introduces tension between your mental attitudes about what’s possible versus your own deeply rooted habits that might be past their shelf-life. It could be beneficial for you if you can take an inventory of your routines and your ingrained ways which potentially need a refresh. This month might be an optimal time to seize the fresh sweep of new energy as an opportunity to make the adjustments you desire that support your overall wellbeing.
The Sagittarius Full Moon on June 11th shines in your eleventh sector of community, collective vision, and future dreaming. Because this is right after Jupiter’s ingress into Cancer, and Jupiter rules this Sagittarius Full Moon, this lunation’s themes are especially expansive. You may feel an urgent call to break free from old narratives about your place in the world, and to reconnect with hope and rewrite the stories you tell yourself about the future. Jupiter’s square to Saturn and Neptune highlights friction between your longings for belonging and your developing sense of individual purpose. There’s momentum here for metamorphosis, shedding roles that no longer fit, and stepping into fuller participation in your chosen communities.
The Sun enters Cancer on June 20th, marking the Cancer Solstice and the official beginning of this sign’s season. This powerful astrological date brings energy and attention once again to your sixth sector of day-to-day habits and environment, echoing Jupiter’s recent arrival there. Cancer season for you is about tending to that which sustains and revitalizes you – emotionally, physically, and spiritually. The Sun’s conjunction with Jupiter amplifies the need for nourishment, while their square to Saturn and Neptune underscores the necessity of discernment. Two Yods – the well-known “Finger of God” aspect pattern – form in the sky around this time, involving the aforementioned square as well as Pluto in your sign and Mars in Virgo. This is a very dynamic and complex configuration, and one that brings pressure and potential. You’re standing at a pivotal junction: How do your choices, about your work, your health, your energy and attention, shape the larger transformation you’re undergoing? What small, intentional adjustments can you make that may ripple out into major change?
The New Moon in Cancer that land on June 25th initiates a new cycle toward the end of the month with a powerful call to recommit to your rituals of care and connection. The Sun and Moon conjunct Jupiter are still caught in the Yod pattern involving Pluto in your first and Mars in your eighth sector. There’s a sense that something deeper is being reborn through the smaller choice-points in each moment, that ultimately build the larger landscape of your life and world. Allow this lunation to distill and clarify what matters to you – and how the microcosm of smaller details can reflect and be imbued by your sense of overarching meaning and intentionality. Your internal systems are undergoing a major metamorphosis; you may benefit when you allow yourself the space and grace to meet what is arising with your presence, innately generous nature, and sense of compassion. Through this process of deep restructuring, may you align your mind, heart, and daily actions with your higher truth – becoming a vibrant and authentic expression of your True Nature, and gently anchoring the world you long to help create.
Pisces Horoscope June 2025
PISCES (Feb 19 - Mar 20) Water. Ruling Planets Neptune, Jupiter
This is another time when your inner proclivities of this spring and summer are coming to the fore, Pisces, along with your resources and values. Your ruler, Neptune, residing in your resources sector, is calling the shots in a big way, because conjunct the grounding influence of Saturn. This conjunction, prominent in the recent Gemini New Moon that governs the month, and also in the Cancer Solstice that is prominent in the month’s second half, represents a tying together of your social sector and feelings of identity. You are in some sense, now, living for community and exploring the ways that you bring life to it by what you create. You are also aware, as the month begins, of a focus on home and family that could include interesting diversions in terms of family of origin and getting to know yourself better from the inside out. The Sagittarius Full Moon of the 11th references your vocational sector and the Moon there brings up the dichotomy of public life versus what is strictly private. There is some comingling of these in that your own distinctly private principles may become more fully aligned with what you profess in public and proceed to act upon in terms of career and professional life decisions. That is a natural consequence of some of these outer planet combinations. The Cancer Solstice taking place on June 20th is a significant juncture in that your creative self-expression is featured, along with many other areas of your life, in the complex astrology it brings. In particular, your unconscious process becomes more fully integrated with the concrete here and now of your resources and values, to the extent that you can allow it to. At this entry of the Sun into Cancer, signaling the beginning of summer in the Northern Hemisphere, important partners in your life are also brought more firmly into the picture.
The following was written by our wonderful in-house astrologer, Leslie Benson. You can find her at https://www.astrologyforawakening.com/
June begins for you astrologically in the wake of the Gemini New Moon from May 26th, which set the tone for the lunation cycle covering most of the current month. This New Moon stirs themes of inner-space, foundations, and belonging. With the Sun and Moon in your fourth sector of home, family, and ancestry. you may feel the urge to retreat inward and to listen to the quieter parts of yourself – those inner places you can hear best when the hum of the outer world softens into the background. Mercury, at rulership in Gemini and conjunct the New Moon and Sun, forms a clarifying air trine to Pluto in Aquarius in your twelfth sector of dream imagination unconscious process, helping you more clearly identify and name what’s been transforming deep within your own inner world of the subconscious. This aspect may sharpen your perception and encourage deep, honest conversations – especially around what safety means to you, and what kinds of internal narratives and patterns you’re ready to rewrite.
Saturn and Neptune conjunct in Aries fall at the midpoint of this trine, receiving sextiles from the Moon- Sun- Mercury stellium and from Pluto, bring weight to your second sector of finance and personal resources. This powerhouse pairing just opened a new life stage for you in Aries, and will be in conjunction all summer, suggesting that your evolving attitude to self-worth and stability is becoming focalized, and undergoing a profound restructuring. In one dimension this influence is very much about money and material needs, yet it’s also about the deeper core values you build your life upon, and your sense of self-worth. Neptune, your ruler, signals the importance of this for your ongoing developmental path. The Neptunian archetype gently dissolves outdated notions of security, while Saturn helps you build new ones from a place of self-respect, strength, and conviction. The energies here are both tangible and deeply transcendant – material and mystical – and are best navigated through all of your senses and faculties, including your pursuit to deepen your trust in your intuition and gut instincts.
On June 5th, Venus enters Taurus activating your third sector of voice, learning, and local environment. Venus, in her rulership in this earthy sign, reminds you that beauty lives in the tactile world – in the way your words feel in your mouth, and the color of your surrounding environment. Communication may soften now, especially in close friendships or sibling relationships. This is a good time to speak kind truths, send love notes, or relish in an artistic or written project that you simply love. Venus helps you stabilize your inner dialogue and anchor your creative impulses in tangible form.
A major shift of the month (and year!) occurs on June 9th, when Jupiter enters Cancer, or your fifth sector of creative self-expression, joy, play, and romance. Jupiter is exalted in Cancer – and this is a generous, nourishing placement that encourages you to rediscover what makes you feel fully alive. And to be able to create from this space. Productive work, children, romance, and personal pleasures may come to the fore for new exploration. But Jupiter doesn’t just bring buoyancy – he also magnifies. His square to Saturn and Neptune in Aries could heighten internal tensions between the need to tend to the practicalities of finance and your yearning to lose yourself in the realms of imagination, love, or creative flights of fancy. Some mindfulness and adjustment may be needed to strike a balance between freedom of expression and grounding in tangible matters. There could also be a way that doubling down on your creativity feeds the flames of your sense of self-worth and values. These are subtle but important reflection points, and you may reap the rewards of this timing by allowing your joy and creative expression to nourish and replenish your soul.
The Sagittarius Full Moon arrives on June 11th illuminating your tenth sector of vocation, visibility, and life direction. This is the first Full Moon after Jupiter’s ingress into Cancer, and since Jupiter rules Sagittarius, his influence here is pronounced. You may receive public recognition or experience a moment of striking clarity around your purpose at this time. There’s also potential for emotional overwhelm or conflicting desires – between showing up for the world and honoring your need for retreat. You may be learning how to be seen and known without abandoning your sensitivity, and how to lead with your whole self – not just the polished parts.
On June 20th, the Cancer Solstice arrives, as the Sun enters that sign joining Jupiter there. This year, this important astrological date is especially potent and carries an energy that may infuse your personal expression with warmth, magnetism, and emotional clarity. The square to Saturn and Neptune in Aries additionally keeps the month’s deeper themes alive – namely, how your pleasures and passions connect to your inner sense of value. Two powerful Yods also form around the Solstice, involving Sun-Jupiter, Saturn-Neptune, Mars and Pluto. These configurations point to a crossroads moment – an invitation to recalibrate how you take action, channel creative energy, and foster inner resilience in the face of ongoing transformation and worldly challenges. With Pluto and Mars both highlighted in this configuration, passion, even anger, may arise, and, if so, the prudent course of action is non-action, take that important step backward instead of being triggered.
The Cancer New Moon in the last full week of the month, on June 25th, culminates these themes with a resonant emotional tone. This lunation is conjunct Jupiter and echoes the Solstice signature of unusual intensity. It invites you into a tender alchemy of heart, spirit, and subconscious; a rebirth of your creative and emotional self. This New Moon reminds you that emotional depth and internal values are in no wat a liability – and is instead your compass as you navigate the dissolution of old patterns and consciously choose to build new ones. While the world rushes along at the breakneck speed of its hustle and bustle, you are being asked to remain attuned to the subtle realms and slower pace of your heart-space. You benefit from allowing the moments of beauty you find in ordinary places to permeate your experience, letting them seep in deeply, to feed and nourish the ground of your whole being.
A June Month of Passion, Transcendence, and Transformation
The astrology of June is quite powerful, in part because of outer planet conjunctions and combinations that bring unconscious passions and proclivities to the fore in some crucial alignments. This begins with the Gemini New Moon from the last week of the previous month, its thirty-day lunation cycle governing most of June. This volatile New Moon aspected Saturn and Neptune in their newly potent conjunction of basically antithetical planetary archetypes, and also featured Chiron and Eris in extremely close conjunction, plus the highlighted presence of confronting transformation represented by Pluto in Aquarius. The dynamism of this month continues with the entrance of Jupiter into Cancer in the timing of the June 11th Sagittarius Full Moon, joining Mercury there in tight aspect to Saturn-Neptune at the beginning of Aries, and making another close connection to Pluto. The transformational qualities of Pluto in Aquarius have been discussed by many astrologers, in essence with respect to the alterations that this potent singular archetype of far-reaching change brings to each of us individually and to the collective. Aquarius is an Air sign which rules the Internet, science and computation, and all of secular society, which we find in greater global communication and interconnection than ever before. Another key configuration of this June month especially intense in its impact is the many splendored Cancer Solstice of the 20th which signals the beginning of summer in the Northern Hemisphere. This features both the Sun the Moon at the 0-degree mark of their respective signs of Cancer and Taurus, thus aspecting Saturn-Neptune, and twin yod formations with their focus of Mars and Pluto, signifying extreme energy just below the surface layers of our psyche, ready to explode.
Saturn and Neptune in early Aries get closer to perfection in these first two months of summer, June and July, and then drift farther away until 2026 when they perfectly conjoin in February. Seminal 21st century astrologer Richard Tarnas, writing about this outer planet combination, describes them as fostering polarity, red states and blues states, where neither side can see anything redeeming whatsoever in the attitude of the other, and indeed this seems an accurate portrayal of our global and US national politics at the present time. The period of influence for this current conjunction, or “world transit” as he terms these outer planet combinations, incidentally, would be 2024-2027. As indicated above, the current month features this potent combination in many of its major configurations, including the Gemini New Moon that sets the stage for almost all of June, wherein the Sun, Moon, and Mercury are in sextile to Saturn and Neptune, near the midpoint of their trine to Pluto in early Aquarius. Then there is the Sagittarius Full Moon of the 11th, when Jupiter and Mercury in Cancer, four degrees apart, have their midpoint in partile or same-degree square to Neptune, and, most particularly, the Cancer Solstice of the 20th when these two antithetical outer planets are closely aspected by Uranus, Sun and Jupiter conjunct in early Cancer, the Moon at 0° of Taurus, Mars at 2° of Virgo, new 21st century KBO planet Haumea at 1° of Scorpio, and Pluto at 3° of Aquarius. This is obviously a very volatile configuration, signaling that the following three months of Northern Hemisphere summer could turn out to be quite intense ones, similar to this current June month.
The Pluto- Haumea square is also fully active in this month’s configurations, throughout, and especially in the timing of the Cancer Solstice of the 20th, when so many planetary alignments are in the first few degrees of their respective signs, as indicated in the above paragraphs. This has been shown by recording many instances to be a case of lies becoming exposed, because Haumea loves the truth, while Pluto is implacable in dredging up the seamy underbelly of any particular situation. It is possible that this monthly cycle will see many further instances of “deception unmasked,” which is also another keyword of Saturn-Neptune.
In another difficult and yet ultimately hopeful outer planet combination, Chiron and Eris are exact to the minute of a degree in the Gemini New Moon that governs the month, both at 25° 28’ of Aries. Additionally, in the Sagittarius Full Moon configuration, Chiron lies in partile trine with Mars at 26° of Leo, and in a wider grand trine with the Sagittarius Moon. It could be, therefore, that inner wounding is in the cards to come up in one way or another during this June cycle and be life changing when some progress can be made. If so, the opportunity is to get more familiar with yourself in these dark places within, the likely residue of early childhood trauma, occurring at a time when it could not be properly dealt with. Now, in your more adult maturity, acceptance and loving care of isolated walled-off hurt places deep within your psyche can go a long way toward healing these, which is also, in reality, life-long. This process, once begun, does over time give you the results you vitally need for eventual greater integration and happiness.
So, with everything that is going on, we can only say that the tides rise and then the tides turn, so that staying calm and resourced is the best way to handle whatever it is that comes up; trusting in the universe, together with your own inner guidance, to see yourself through. When the going gets tough, the tough get going, as they say, and truer words were never spoken for these fractious times that we are all currently living through. Or, to put it in another way in words which are also, not by chance, a Grateful Dead lyric, “We will survive.” Yes, we will. And go on to better times that lie ahead.
