Astrological Forecast for June 2021

June reminds us that summer is just around the corner. You think of family and friends gathering at the beaches, favorite restaurants and looking forward to vacation time.

Venus moves into the sign of Cancer on June 2^nd giving those with Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Cancer an enjoyable start to this month. The sign of Cancer loves family gatherings, picnics, patriotism and feeding others.

Be careful not to overspend however on antiques and jewelry. Say those money affirmations as abundance intensifies when Venus moves through any sign.

An annual new Moon solar eclipse in Gemini at 19 degrees (6:53AM EDT) early in the morning starts off new beginnings for those with Gemini energy. If you have Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Gemini, it has been soul searching time.

An annular eclipse is when the Sun and Moon exactly line up with the Earth. This makes the size of the Moon apparently smaller. This leaves the Sun’s bright ring, or annulus, surrounding the dark disk of the Moon visible.

Remember, we have Mercury still in retrograde motion in Gemini, the planet that rules Gemini, at 20 degrees very close to this new Moon solar eclipse. This is the time to plant the best affirmations into your consciousness that will give you all that you desire if you have Gemini energies running in your chart.

Eclipse energies last up to six months. Gemini is a double-bodied sign, and this may be a time you drop the familiar way you do things and surprise family and friends with a side of you they never have seen before. Integration is the word that best describes what you want to accomplish over the next 6 months.

Saturn, in retrograde motion, is offering some needed boundaries as it makes a trine, if you count beyond 6 degrees, to this new Moon allowing a foundation that is solid as Neptune squares the Sun, Moon and Mercury which can make issues in your life vaguer in an already heavy atmosphere of retrograde planets.

Gemini energy deals with siblings, cousins and neighbors so look to these areas for some new revelations of communications and don’t expect clear outcomes till June 22^nd when Mercury stations direct and the fog slowly clears out by July 7^th.

Mars moves into the loud and proud sign of Leo. If you have your Sun, Moon, rising or other planets in Leo, the drama gets pushed even further than normal.

If you’re having relationships with those that are Leo, try to not upset them or they will roar out vowels and consanant’s that you have never heard from them before. Keep the peace and just nod your head up and down, yes master. LOL.

Happy Father’s Day on June 20^th as well as Jupiter turning retrograde at 2 degrees of Pisces and the Sun enters the sign of Cancer ushering in the Summer Solstice of 2021 at 11:32PM EDT.

Jupiter turning retrograde can calm the party down as well as Mercury being in its deepest point of retrograde motion at this time.

Fathers want a peaceful day with their loved ones. A simple day filled with love and joy. However, they should stay away from drugs or alcohol and marijuana is included as a drug to stay away from children and animals.

Mercury turns direct on June 22^nd. Happy communications.

The full Moon on June 24^th is in Capricorn at 23 degrees at (2:40PM EDT). Capricorn’s can create a serious work ethic and they already started beating the drum in May regarding unemployment benefits from the Federal stimulus and trying to take it all away.

The Republican Governors are already stopping the extra $300.00 as soon as the middle of June. They will take the money and spend it elsewhere while they make an average of $175,000 a year AND they will send workers back to work for less than $12.00 an hr. Nice people.

The reason why I mention this is there is lots of tensions in this full Moon chart including 3 T-Squares. The American workers will be speaking up and it may be unlawful for the States to hold money from the unemployed that has already been supported by the congress. Lots of anger will be expressed over this.

I have the perfect solution. Pay Americans what they are worth like Senators pay themselves with our taxpayer money. Make the minimum wage $20.00 an hr. and the unemployment rate will go down to zero.

The Moon in Capricorn is in its detriment and this negates the full expression of emotions and unconscious habits that are ruled by the Moon. Capricorn is governed by Saturn and Saturn is in retrograde motion both involved in T-Squares.

I think the song by Elton John “The Bitch is Back” is the song for this full Moon. If you have Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Capricorn you may feel uncomfortable with emotional situations that come up over the next couple of weeks.

The signs of Aquarius, Leo, Capricorn, Taurus and Cancer could find themselves in situations that require balance and a steady as we go attitude in life situations or anger and frustration manifests. Meditate and breathe deeply.

The Sun trine to Jupiter is helpful to keep a happy smile in the mist of stress and strain situations. Since Jupiter is retrograde at the time of this full Moon, the inside is smiling regardless of what is happening on the outside. Huge lessons with an enlightened attitude can be learned.

This combination could also be the breaking point for international affairs dealing with the pandemic. Weather patterns, earthquakes and volcano eruptions could also be active from June 24^th till July 9^th.

With Neptune turning retrograde at 23 degrees (3:21PM EDT) a day after the full Moon, deception could fog perception’s as it squares Mercury. Thank God its trine to Venus and sextile to Pluto to lighten up the intense T-square’s. We can see through the madness of deception and discern our way out of the haze.

Venus moves out of the sign of Cancer into the sign of Leo on June 27^th giving the Lion some powerful romantic energies till July 21^st. If you are single and looking or you’re in a partnership, romance will be a major priority during this time as well as having an active social life.

This combination of Venus and Mars being in Leo also creates large concert venues outdoors or indoors, but it may be too soon for indoors. Regardless, it will be an active June and July for venues such as concerts, carnivals and fairs.

Wishing everyone a joyful June that allows us a more relaxed environment and may all countries in the world have whatever they need to minimize death and despair from Covid.
