Hello, :)

A breathe of fresh air comes this month.  There are many surprises in store, with so many sweet angles between the planets, they will most likely make you smile :)

June 2015  ~ "Happy Surprises"

The May dance with the darker sides of Neptune continues into June, as does the theme of "retrograde". The mischief of the conflictive aspect of a "square", which is a 90 degree angle made between heavenly bodies, flavors the Full Moon in Sagittarius energy that starts the month.  Full moons generally bring a coming to fullness, completion, or fruition and usually carry strong emotion. The Neptune square and simultaneous Mercury retrograde make it likely that confusion will dominate at this time.

Avoiding making final decisions, if possible, will save later questioning.  The retrograde energy this month never completely wanes but if there is something that has to be done, decided, or brought out, the days of June 14th through the 30th have more clear energy than the earlier half of the month, as well as some great aspects for taking action. Surprising bursts of joy and forward movement blast through the retrograde cloud at junctures throughout the month after the first several days of heaviness. Expect the unexpected as four aspects from June 9th through the end of the month have graces from Uranus, the planet of surprises.  We have had several months of challenging angles with this jostling planet but in this month, the odds that the news that comes will bring smiles is increased dramatically.  This is the type of energy that just when you think God has forgotten you (which of course, never really happens) a showing that you have been "heard" presents and it adds fuel to your fires of conscious manifestation.

Remember the lessons we went over last month as the 6 months of retrograde focus began in May: Know that, as always, there is a reason for the contrary energies; Appreciate the "grounding cord" the backwards motions offers; Embody the energy of the earthworm; Relish in the much-needed rest from DO-ING; Avoid making plans if possible, and any plans that really have to be made, keep very flexible; Allow balance to naturally come by not fighting the forces that seem contrary.



Check out more June Highlights:

** Sometimes the effects of planetary transits are felt before or after the actual day that the transit occurs.

June 2nd -- Full Moon in Sagittarius with Neptune in Pisces Square -- Sagittarius is the sign that most represents the energy of FREEDOM.  This emotional full moon may bring freedom from something or into something that has been pending for a while.  It is likely that the gifts of the occurrence will be masked underneath strong emotion and pervasive confusion but time will return the insights to awareness with more clarity. Respond to things that happen but avoid initiating, if possible.  


June 5th -- Mars in Gemini Sextile Jupiter in Leo -- This first little shiny ray of forward movement of the month bursts through the retrograde. Although the strong overtone of retrograde, or going backwards, goes from May 2015 through the end of October 2015, much will move forward during this 6-month window and the several days around this transit is a hot spot for such movement. Although not a great time to make a big ta-do about bringing something new out, dusting something off from the past and showing it off some is well indicated.  This forward movement also may just seem to come magically from the outside world without any conscious action on your part.  An overall energetic and vibrant manifestation is likely ;)

June 5th - 6th -- Venus in Leo Trine Saturn in Sagittarius  -- The sweetness continues with the layer of this transit.  Saturn, known to be grumpy by nature, has a happy moment as gorgeous Venus flirts with an awesome angle.  All things in love, money, and aesthetics shine at this time.  Think of Ebenezer Scrooge at the time when he starting really GETTING the messages from his nighttime visitors.  A happy Ebenezer/Saturn brings prosperity and benevolence to all.

June 8th -- Sun in Gemini Sextile Jupiter in Leo -- Another sweet spot around these days, this transits brings great potential for massive help, support, and luck.  Because of the retrograde influence, the odds that the person or entity assisting is one from the past.  Recognition, accolades, confidence, and increased influence are all potential marks of this combination of planetary energies.

June 9th -- Mars in Gemini Sextile Uranus in Aries -- This influence brings bravery and a willingness to experiment that has great potential to pay off BIG TIME. Retrogrades are a great time to "try things on" and this transit brings unusual ideas with great outcomes.

June 9th -- Sun in Gemini Sextile Uranus in Aries --  This is a major aspect for breakthroughs with creative resolutions.  Inspirations zap from the ethers bringing brilliant visions.  Write down or otherwise record ideas that come as the magic is fleeting and can easily be forgotten.  Years worth of epic plans can be downloaded now.

June 11th -- Mercury Direct in Gemini --  The planet of transportation and communication officially moves direct today bringing with it the chaos of the turn around.  Try to stay centered as the energy spirals into excess before forward movement is solidified.  Although officially direct today, the post retrograde shadow period for Mercury doesn't end until June 27th.  Pending Venus retrograde (which starts officially at the end of July) starts its shadow period June 22nd and picks up where Mercury's retrograde energies leave off.

June 12th -- Neptune Retrograde in Pisces -- This transit, running from today through September 18, 2015 brings more intensity to Neptune's movement through the sign it rules, Pisces.  While some planets weaken in their influence in retrograde, Neptune strengthens.   Anything inside will come out intensified.  See Harry Potter in his most vivid fearful moment.  The outside "story" is only reflecting the inner "issue".  The retrograde will intensify the inner issues but also the inner brilliance.  This can be a notably prolific time of artistic expression.  Neptune and the 12th house it rules is also connected with meditation and channeling.  These pursuits, as well as deep psychological probing, work with dreams, past-life explorations, retreats and sabbaticals, healing and artistic work of any kind, and all else under Neptune's rulership are strongly indicated and supported at this time.

June 14th -- Sun in Gemini Conjunct Mars in Gemini -- A powerful burst of energy.  Use it productively :)

June 14th -- Saturn Retrogrades in Sagittarius and returns to Scorpio --  The last lessons of Saturn in Scorpio are brought into focus for several months.  This time brings the equivalent of Santa's work at Christmas... Good boys and girls get rewards, one's who have been naughty get coal.  

June 16th -- New Moon in Gemini --  Make your New Moon wishes for everything involving communication, transportation, mobility, relatives, learning, social experiences, things related to the "mental" aspects of life, hands/wrists/arms/shoulders, lungs, and nervous system.

June 21st -- Sun enters Cancer/Summer Solstice -- This is a Power Day.  Use this day of most light to inundate the darkest spaces of your being with renewing energy.

June 22nd -- Jupiter in Leo Trine Uranus in Aries -- More wonderful surprises in store during this time!  This transit brings a notable increase in synchronicities.  Follow hunches or other impulses to go to certain places as "being in the right place at the right time" will give this transit superb opportunity to manifest in a BIG way.

June 28th -29th -- Venus in Leo Sextile Uranus in Aries -- Enjoyment, money, and love come from places you would least expect them at this time.  Some risks will bring great reward from this combination.  Look out for opportunity and be prepared to strike.
