The major news for June is that Mercury is retrograde for the first three weeks of the month. It finally turns direct on June 19th, however this retrograde period is particularly powerful – and potentially stressful – because almost half the planets in the sky moving in retrograde motion right now!
Along with Mercury retrograde in Gemini, the big planetary boys Jupiter and Pluto are both retrograde in Capricorn, and Neptune retrogrades in Aquarius. And all of those signs will be especially impacted!
All of this requires an especially BIG dose of patience –and measured decisions with time to reflect. You need to be thinking outside the box now, but not be in a hurry. Balance new thinking with going with the flow, and you can find yourself in wonderful places you’ve only dreamed of till now! And, along the way, if you experience blockages, allow those challenges to guide you to where you need to be.
Also,
the New Moon took place in Gemini on June 3rd – and this was a Super
Moon. And it was the 2nd of 5 Super
Moons coming up this year. The term "Super Moon" refers to a New or
Full Moon that coincides with the Moon being at its closest point (or perigee)
to the earth in its monthly cycle. This
intensifies tides and weather patterns—and can sometimes throw "life as usual" right out the
window!
However, it’s also a time that encourages breaks with the old and brings in exciting newness. Everyone can be expecting new shifts and changes to be happening somewhere in their lives now. Read that, immediately. And especially for those Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces among us. As you take a deep breath and go with the flow, you will find balance alongside an exciting newness in your life.
Mercury
finally turns direct on June 19th, but don’t be too hasty to
celebrate – or buy that new computer or car yet. Celebration – and your forward movement and
action – can again come a few days after the 19th. And then, when Mercury finally returns to its
place of retrograde motion on July 4th, all signals are go again. And life will smooth out. Finally.
One more caveat about Mercury’s direct motion, however. Be prepared for some surprises around the time it turns direct on the 19th, because the Sun will be meeting up with Uranus on the same day, and there’s a Full Moon in Sagittarius the day before on the 18th which, coincidently exactly aspect the Galactic Center, and then the Summer Solstice takes place on the 20th! This spells BIG SURPRISES and/or upsets! So do be prepared for the unexpected!
With
Mercury retrograde, along with three other planets, and the new Moon in the sign of Gemini, ruled by Mercury, and
the Full Moon mid-month in Sagittarius, a good approach would be to view your
plans, projects, and thoughts with freshness.
Yes, it’s time to think outside the box -- and using a new approach! You won’t get where you want to go taking the same old road. But do balance the new with thoughful, measured steps. And do keep organized – as you allow yourself to go with the flow -- especially if you experience blockages along the way.
As long as you're willing to push forward in regards to a new idea – in a new way – a happy outcome is assured. Just be ready to give it some time to blossom as we move forward!
Move
into your plans with a spirited step -- but keep your focus level and alert during June -- and beyond!
