June 4 – 10

Don’t believe the hype!

What to expect: Questioning reality
What to watch out for: Making decisions
What will it affect? Work, communication, power, ambitions

Chiron in Aries squares Vesta in Capricorn on June 4th – As we continue to work with our self-confidence we meet a challenge in our work and ambitions. Chiron in Aries is bringing up wounds related to being who we are and as it squares work related Vesta in the sign that loves status quo – Capricorn. we feel stifled and hemmed in. The good news is that the Sun will conjunct Mercury in Gemini, so we have the right recipe for talking things out. On the downside, the sun and mercury are moving into a square with Neptune adding to the recipe the possibility of white lies and deceit. This is especially the case on June 6th when the moon will also join Neptune in Pisces. Things can start to feel a little Alice-in-wonderland; we can lose touch with the what’s real and what’s not real. Add to the mix that Venus will oppose Pluto and we add the element of power struggle. This one will be confusing. Don’t be surprised if you feel like someone is gaslighting you. Remember that Gaslighting is when someone makes you question your reality. It’s when we lose touch with what we know we know. Seriously doubt can creep in. For this reason, it’s a terrible time to make any major business decisions.

Why? Chiron Square Vesta, Sun Conjunction Mercury, Venus Opposition Pluto, Sun Square Neptune, Mercury Square Neptune

Celebrate Breakthroughs!

What to watch out for: Crossing boundaries
What will it affect? Work, communication, innovations, finances, power

“Politeness is the poison of collaboration.” – Edwin Land

On June 7th Mercury will sextile Juno and communications in all of our relationships immediately start to get better. Uranus now in Taurus will also trine Vesta in Capricorn on June 8th and our work also gets a surprising uplift. Taurus is the sign of money; banking, financing, and loans. In a trine to Vesta the asteroid related to work and passions, it helps us to focus on our finances into innovative areas of work. Breakthroughs are possible and will help us to achieve our ambitions.

By June 9th mercury will move into a sextile with Ceres. This is great energy for getting together for group activities. It favours, food, communication, relationship, leadership, and play. This combination will help to your team building, so take advantage of any good weather and get out and enjoy it! If you have something to celebrate, it’s also a great day for that. As they say, celebrate early and often. This helps to keep engagement and motivation.

One word of cautions – If you do end up at a company party, don’t forget your professionalism and boundaries. Pluto will also square Juno, making it clear who’s in charge.

Why? Mercury Sextile Juno, Uranus Trine Vesta, Mercury Sextile Ceres, Pluto Square Juno

Full Moon in Sagittarius

What to expect: Culminations
What to watch out for: Leaping before we’re ready
What will it affect? Healing, learning, adventure, direction

The Full Moon is at 8 degree’s of Sagittarius on May 29th. The Sabian symbol for this full moon is “a mother with her children on stairs”. This Sabian symbol reminds me of a scene out of the Sound of Music. The governess, who will later become the legitimate mother of the seven children, stands on the spiral stairs with the children saying goodnight to a ballroom of party guests. She is their teacher, their caregiver and she lovingly helps them up the steps and off to bed. One of them, the oldest girl, wants to stay and socialize among the guests. The current teacher/future mother lovingly says “no, you’re not ready yet”. She’s almost there, but has a little more to learn! At this Full Moon, we know the path forward. We are getting ready. The party helps us to become clear. We want to meet that person, or learn that dance or wear that dress. All of this represents ambitions and adventures that initiate us into maturity. But we have some more learning to do. At the Full Moon, look around for that help! A loving motherly teacher will be there to help us with our direction and the next steps to take. The Full Moon is also sextile the North Node, the point in the sky responsible for taking us in the right direction. You can sure, that this loving teacher will give you the right directions and steps to take.

But we have some work to do first! Mercury is sextile Chiron, the wounded healer and so we get information at the Full Moon about what we first need to heal. Chiron is in Aries, so it favours Aries types of activities. It speaks of building confidence and maturity before we can take those big steps on our own. To help with the healing do things such as speaking up and asserting your wants and needs. Or explore other avenues for self-expression or self-discovery that help build confidence. The keyword here is test, try and explore.

Friday, June 1st and Saturday, June 2nd are lovely days! Venus is trine Jupiter putting us in a good mood. It’s a great day for socializing and entertainment. Venus is in loving and nurturing Cancer and is trine Jupiter in Scorpio. Get out the food, wine, and ambiance. This energy is great for building trust and nurturing relationships.

Don’t miss this opportunity to wine and dine important clients and potential collaborators. Venus will also trine Neptune in Pisces. Artistic, philanthropic or visionary activities will also be the in thing. The ideas you come up with will be future-oriented and humanitarian and may even change the world. If you’ve been all talk and no action, now is the time to solidify ideas and plans and move forward! By June 2st Mercury will sextile the North Node allowing you to also form your dream team! Approach all those who you feel will be right for this project!

Work/Life Balance

What to expect: Conflict
What to watch out for: Hurt Feelings
What will it affect? Relationships, Ambitions, Family

There are always challenges. This week on June 2nd Venus is square Juno and the challenge will be balancing relationships. Venus in Cancer wants to hold her loved ones tight and in a square to Juno feels a little neglected by her relationship. Juno is in Aries making us busy exploring the world and ourselves. We may need to find ways to balance our relationships to avoid hurt feelings or a fight. Saturn is in Capricorn and is opposite Pallas in Cancer, so we have difficulty envisioning that balance. Our ambitions are getting in the way of seeing the possibility of balance and connection with our family and loved ones. A synthesis is possible.

Why? Venus Square Juno, Saturn Opposition Pallas

Creative Release

What to expect: Creative opportunities
What to watch out for: Distracting through work
What will it affect? Creativity, emotions, work, patterns, communication

On May 21st Uranus makes a sextile to Pallas who has just moved into Cancer. Pallas in Cancer helps us to sort through emotional patterns and with a sextile to Uranus in Taurus the means to this may be very unusual. Alternative therapies, not the usual ones like acupuncture or homeopathy, but ones that are way out there, like the John of God crystal bed or the biofeedback mat will aid in any breakthroughs.

Then on May 22nd the Sun will Sextile Chiron in Aries and we get another chance to change up our healing modalities. Chiron is now in Aries and the wounded healer pushes for more direct ways to release anger. It’s best to stay away from the fist fights or other forms of direct slap downs in releasing that anger. Instead, go for a kickboxing class. Also fencing or practicing your aim at the shooting range are good ways to dispense pent up baggage. We also have the chance to express some of the energy that is coming to light through art, music or writing. This is because Mercury is Sextile Transiting Neptune creating a dreamy magical connection with the divine. The pen is mightier than the sword, colour is your therapy, music is your cure.

There are, however, two energies to be aware of. The first is Mercury in Taurus opposite Jupiter in Scorpio. This brings about certainty and confidence in judgment that in these fixed signs tends to be unbending – Strong and wrong might be the best way to describe it. The second is Venus in emotional cancer opposite Vesta in Capricorn. Instead of facing our emotions, we may pour ourselves into our work. The problem is when we disconnect from our feelings or try to escape them through work we disconnect from important information; information that we get by interacting with our emotions and being curious. It’s the lack of connection that can lead to faulty thinking. By default, we fill in the blanks to any missing information with our past stories.

Project Launch!

What to expect: Getting project off the ground
What to watch out for: Insecurities
What will it affect? Projects, self-esteem

On the 23rd The Sun newly in Gemini will trine Mars making it an excellent day to get projects off the ground. Mars is in Aquarius and is super open to ideas and change

There are just a couple of project pitfalls that you will need to keep in mind as you get things off the ground. Jupiter will square Ceres. Ceres in Leo feels nurtured by praise and with Jupiter in Scorpio squaring it, we overdo the suspicion. We might think we are showing our care by teaching or sharing our knowledge, but unfortunately, it’s the kind that is tinged with TMI (too much information) that undermines our self-confidence. Mercury in Taurus is square Ceres Leo. This energy comes from the other 90-degree angle making it what we call in astrology, a T-Square. This energy has us speaking the truth and thinking we are “just being practical. We think that we are supporting by stating the facts, but instead, the facts also serve to undermine Leo’s need for praise. This is how it may look in the real world – Someone shows you someone else’s work or product that looks and sounds a bit like yours. They also point out how much more resources and customers they have. You start to wish they had kept their information to themselves as you launch into full-on comparisonitis. You may even think that somehow they stole your ideas. The best approach is to tune out any well-meaning distractions and stay focused on your project. Don’t let it throw you off your game!

The thing is we don’t want to kybosh a great project by going into emotional distraction. To top off the distracting energy, Chiron in Aries will square Pallas in Cancer. The danger is that emotional patterns will mix with our wounds around our self-expression and leading to overwhelm and the possibility of quitting. Courage is now being called for. Do we continue in the face of a lack of support? Or because others see us as green and not up for the challenge?

The Colour Pallet of the Divine

What to expect: Creativity
What to watch out for: Missing the sale
What will it affect? expression of art, creativity, communication

Mere color, unspoiled by meaning, and unallied with definite form, can speak to the soul in a thousand different ways. Oscar Wild

May 25th is a highly creative day! Jupiter will trine Neptune heightening our intuition and creativity. Both are in water signs and are swimming in the realm of deep esoteric knowledge and the divine. Colour is transcendent, music is mystical, words are poetic. Create

Mercury will also trine Pluto and we have a chance to sell! Don’t be afraid of the sale. We create a painting, and yes, the picture speaks a thousand words, but most times we forget to ask for the sale, leaving us wondering why nobody is buying our pieces of mastery. If you don’t believe in being a starving artist we now have the opportunity to take our artwork and sell that painting with the same vigor that a salesperson selling brick would. The world will see why it needs your art and will be convinced of its value and worth, and your extra words help to seal the deal. Venus is opposite Saturn and the value of objects will be high on everyone’s mind, but they need to be left with no doubt that they are making the right decision!

Why? Mercury Trine Pluto, Venus Opposition Saturn, Jupiter Trine Transiting Neptune, Vesta Opposition Pallas
