Monday June 2nd-
There are no major transits today.
Tuesday June 3rd-
At 9:17am Mercury in Gemini sesquiquadrates Retrograde Pluto in Aquarius- creating tension between the Mind and Intellect and the Lord of Death and Rebirth. Mercury/Pluto is great for research, investigation and shadow work– but the tense nature of the aspect can exacerbate power struggles in communication and black and white thinking that affects our mental states. Use Pluto to get to the Truth of things but watch out for shadow dynamics arising in relationships and communication.
Wednesday June 4th-
At 10:32pm Venus in Aries sextiles Jupiter in Gemini- linking the two Benefics in expansive and positive ways! Venus in Aries in her highest is about Self Love and self agency. Jupiter in Gemini in his highest is about coming back to Beginner’s Mind so we are open to learning new things. Venus and Jupiter are both in Detriment in these Signs (not as well placed) BUT they are in harmonious aspect so if we can reign in ego and impulsivity (shadow Aries) and superficiality (shadow Gemini)- we can harness the power of activation present right now. It’s a great day to be social, connect with others, set things into motion and have the courage to leap!
Mars in Leo quincunxes the Mean North Node in Pisces at 11:28pm- creating tension between the Will and Drive and the Node of Destiny! Mars can be spotlighting what is blocking our path of growth and evolution. Particularly when it comes to ego or self focus- the North Node in Pisces reminds us that we want to surrender the ego so that the Universe and our Higher Selves can lead us. Pay attention to intuition, dreams and inner insights incoming right now. Destiny is calling!
Thursday June 5th-
At 1:03pm Mercury in Gemini squares the Nodes of the Moon- creating a T square between the Mind and Intellect and the Nodes of Destiny and Karma. Pay attention to things you hear, say or otherwise learn or receive as information today. Turning points on your path can be incoming! When Planets square the Nodes we can find ourselves brought to pivotal points of choice. Do we want to stay stuck in old karmic patterns or are we ready to move and grow into new directions. With Mercury in his own Sign and ruling the Karmic South Node- the karmic patterns we want to move out of are a tendency to stay stuck in the head. Too much thinking, analysis, logic and practicality can shut us down from trusting our dreams, intuition and Inner Voice. Let go of the Mind so that Heart, Soul and Spirit can lead!
Mercury in Gemini sextiles Mars in Leo at 6:10pm- linking the Mind and Intellect with the Will and Drive! This is great astrology for expressing ourselves authentically and creatively- speaking from the Truth of our Hearts. It’s also a great day for speaking up and speaking Truth. Taking our thoughts and ideas and then acting on them is supported today!
Friday June 6th-
At 12:43am Venus moves out of Aries and into Taurus- moving from Mars Rulership to her own Sign of Rulership where she is much more comfortable! This shifts the Goddess from Yang to Yin, assertive to receptive, independent to interconnected and relational! The coming weeks of Venus in Taurus are a time to enjoy the sensual, physical world. Venus in Taurus oozes abundance, sensuality, softness, pleasure and connection. It’s a great time to find more stability, solidity and security both financially and relationally. Just watch out for the shadow side of Venus in Taurus: being too self indulgent, entitled, lazy and resistant to change.
Mercury in Gemini sextiles Eris in Aries at 3:16pm and Chiron in Aries at 7:55pm- linking the Mind and Intellect with the Goddess of Discord and Chaos and the Wounded healer. Revealing, insightful and sudden information, communications and/or insights can be incoming today! Healing conversations may be edgy but they can also be honest and Truthful. Being willing to speak our Truth but also hear the Truths of others- even if it is not what we want to hear- is key. Keeping the mind open so we are not just seeing what we want to see- but we are seeing the Full Truth in ourselves, in others, in the world around us is the medicine of the moment!
Saturday June 7th-
There are no major transits today.
Sunday June 8th-
At 4:13pm Mercury cojoins Jupiter at 29’45 Gemini- aligning the Mind and Intellect with the Planet of Expansion and Abundance! Mercury/Jupiter is amazing for learning, teaching, traveling and opening up to the new! With both bodies at the Karmic Completion degree- it’s important to pay attention to things you hear, think, say or otherwise receive as information right now. There can be something coming full circle- helping to put the final piece in the puzzle so that the Greater Picture can be seen. Both bodies move into new signs later today and tomorrow- so shifting, transition energy is present. Letting go of what is no longer of value so that space is created for the new to come in is key (intellectually, emotionally and otherwise).
Mercury moves out of Gemini and into Cancer at 6:58pm- shifting the Conscious Mind and Intellect from Air to Water, Yang to Yin, intellect to emotion. Mercury in Cancer is very nurturing and sensitive in communication. Focusing on home, family, emotions, the past and ancestral patterns/karmas is supported right now. Just be aware that we can more easily conflate our thoughts with our feelings and can be overly emotional and attached to the past right now. As Mercury crosses the Aries Point and makes his way to square both Saturn and Neptune tomorrow- so be aware of delays, restrictions, emotional heaviness and/or calls for Greater Mastery coming forward night now! Choice points are incoming!
At 10:46pm the Sun in Gemini sesquiquadrates Retrograde Pluto in Aquarius- creating tension between the Conscious Self and ego and the Lord of the Underworld. Sun/Pluto can be great for diving deep, getting to the root/Truth of matters and going way beyond the surface. Yet this is a tense aspect and Gemini is a Sign that prefers the surface while Pluto is a Planet that can only deal with the depths. Therein lies the tension- between surface and depth, ego and Unconscious, Love/Light and the darkness/Shadow that needs to be integrated. Watch out for power/control dynamics today. Communication can get intense but also perhaps revealing!
Have a blessed week ahead…
