Astrological Forecast for June 2017

June promises to be much more productive than the last three months. The signs most effected this month are Cancer, Taurus, Gemini, Sagittarius, Pisces, Libra, Virgo and Aries.

Mars moves into Cancer on June 4th starting a wave of energy in the sign of Cancer. Mars is in its fall in Cancer so it does not feel as strong and the sign of Cancer is tested the most this month. Mars offers Cancer some extra energy and provide this caring and sensitive sign to speak their mind's and stand up for yourself when others want to take advantage. Confidence in self is very important.

Mars will remain in Cancer till July 21st, 2017. The Sun will enter Cancer on June 21st at 12:24AM EDT and start the Summer Solstice. Mercury also enters Cancer on the 21st giving those with Sun, Moon or rising in Cancer a run for the money.

Clear thinking, extra energy and attentions (Sun and Mars in Cancer) and a gathering of Sun, Moon, Mercury and Mars on the new Moon in Cancer at 2 degrees on June 23rd. More on this later. Cancer is very moody this month.

Venus will move into Taurus on June 6th and this gives those with Sun, Moon or rising in Taurus the extra attractive energies for finances and romance. Venus willremain in Taurus till July 5, 2017. Remember, Venus was retrograde throughout March and the middle of April. It has gained in speed now and the signs of Aries and Taurus are ready to manifest a better life. Ask for that raise. Put your best foot forward. Luck is on your side.

Mercury moves into Gemini on June 6th giving Gemini a clear of communication's to express themselves in their professional and personal life. Mercury is the natural ruler of both Gemini and Virgo. If you have Sun, Moon or rising in these signs look for life to flow a bit better. Mercury will remain in Gemini till June 21st and that will turn the attentions from Gemini over the last month to the sign of Cancer.

It is on June 9th that things really get moving this month. The full Moon is on June 9th at 18 degrees of Sagittarius. Jupiter, the planet that rules Sagittarius, will turn direct 13 degrees in Libra. The full Moon is at 9:10AM EDT. Sagittarius shoots for the stars. Higher visions and they are the optimistic sign of the Zodiac.

Jupiter has been retrograde since February 6th and forming a square to transiting Pluto showing international tensions including the latest terror attack in Manchester, England. Jupiter is ready when it turns direct to address balance and harmony as it trines the Sun in Gemini. A clear message to the free world that violence is not tolerated. Jupiter is also square to Pluto as it turns direct so we may see some military action by America (Mars is in Cancer) as Cancer is the ruling sign of America.

Those with Sun, Moon or rising in Sagittarius are being challenged at work and the responsibilities of life can be overwhelming with a t-square coming from this full Moon conjunct Saturn square to Neptune, Neptune square to the Sun and the opposition between the Sun and Moon.

All mutable signs. Look for the boss to be a pain in the you know what during this time and it could be a female boss (Moon). The mutable signs are Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces. 

Pisces continues to experience a spaced out feeling as Neptune gets ready to turn retrograde on June 16th. I was diagnosed recently with Virtigo. A spinning world that leaves one feeling like they have little energy. I pray it continues to be mild as I have head some stories that are scary. I have Sun andMercury in Pisces both at 12 degrees so transiting Neptune is hovering around my personality.

Happy Fathers Day on June 18th.

Happy Birthday to the sign of Cancer on June 21st. 

The new Moon in Cancer at 2 degrees packs a powerful collection of energies that brings stressful situations to a turning point for those with Sun, Moon orrising in the sign of Cancer. As mentioned earlier, Sun, Moon, Mercury and Mars are all lined up (stellium) inconjunct part of fortune in Aquarius. Could this be the time the sign of Cancer takes the bull by the horns and screams.... I've had it with life and I can't take it anymore?

Those having planets in Cancer can repeat this affirmation daily from June 23rd till July 9th “ I AM CONFIDENT AND BALANCED. MY INNER AND OUTER WORLD IS COMPLETE”. AMEN.

Could this be a time that America takes serious military action as Pluto opposes Mars both square to Jupiter. Aries is the leg that fills in this t-square at 13 degrees. The cardinal signs of Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn are ready to take on the world as they work with tensions in life that force them to act.

Security in America should be high during the July 4th weekend.

Not a bad month as Jupiter turns direct, no Mercury retrograde and from June 23 to July 9th, 2017, the element of water dominates (Cancer) as 7 of the planets are in cardinal signs at the start of this new Moon in Cancer and 5 are in the water element.

Patriotism, family values, being near the ocean, pick nicks and many summer activities move full speed ahead. Mothers and Fathers gather around theirchildren. Food is plentiful. Ocean waters are soothing. Sensitivity is very high. Say nice things to each other. Love your family and neighbors. The real estate market makes a huge turn for the better.

Those with Sun, Moon or rising in Pisces continue to try to muster up enough energy to live life and pay the bills. Neptune will be at 14 degrees retrograde on this new Moon inconjunct Jupiter its co-ruler. Adjustments are being made by Pisces that may feel a bit uncomfortable at times. Reaching for a higher spiritual meaning and purpose in life as they try to navigate through the fog. To see clearly what they can do with their lives and not get side tracked or escape from the responsibilities that need to be attended too. 

Protect your health. Get plenty of rest, eat well and drink plenty of water. After all, fish live in water..........
