June 2018 Aquarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

Overview.

The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness

Until June 21st:

The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar fifth house. This is a time when pleasure-seeking and creative activities come into focus and grab much of your attention. You are particularly personally charming in a spontaneous, natural way during this solar cycle. This is the time of year when you are ready to perform and to express yourself creatively.

This is a very playful cycle, when you are inspired creatively and emotionally. It's a good time for recreation, romance, connecting with children, and enjoying and performing the arts. Your ego is tied up in your children, romantic relationships, and creative output now, so that you can be especially proud of these people and things. You can also be over-sensitive about these matters if you feel you are not getting enough appreciation.

From June 21st forward:

The Sun illuminates your solar sixth house. During this cycle, you take more pride in the work you do and in your health routines than any other time of the year. You are sorting through the experiences of the last several months, separating the worthwhile from the worthless. This is a good time to build your skills, to get organized, and to attend to your health and wellbeing. It's a great time to make improvements to your regular routines. Your self-esteem and your ego are tied up in the work you do and in the services you give. Details are more important to you now.

It's time to bring order to your life by focusing on the little things that make up the whole. This cycle presents an opportunity to get rid of what doesn't work in your life, while also discovering what does. You could seek distinction and strive towards perfection in your work. Efficiency should be your goal now. Your physical health, as well as the relationship between your body and your mind, are in focus.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort

Until the 13th: 

Venus continues to move through your solar sixth house now. This is a time when beautifying and/or bringing harmony to your working environment is a priority to you. You might find more opportunities to socialize with co-workers, perhaps even meeting a new friend through your work or health routines. You are likely to bring more tact and diplomacy to your relations with the people you work with now. You may not be as productive as usual during this period, as the focus is more on social relationships and pleasure than on getting the job done. Improving health and vitality through pleasurable activities such as massage might be in focus now.

From June 13th forward: 

Venus graces your solar seventh house during this period. This is a time for extra attention to a partner or significant other, as well as from that person! You are more inclined to flatter and charm others during this cycle. One-to-one relating appeals to you more than group activities or more casual connections. Smoothing out your close personal relationships is what makes you happy during this cycle. If single, you are more willing than normal to enter into a committed relationship. In general, you are adaptable when it comes to your affections--very willing to compromise, negotiate, and make peace.

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation

Until the 12th: 

Mercury continues to transit your solar fifth house. Increased communication with children, romantic partners, and people who share the same hobbies as you can occur now. Certainly, you are thinking about these people and about love and romance, child rearing, and/or creative pursuits more than usual. Mental exercises and competitions can be particularly enjoyable now. You express yourself with warmth and creativity, and you have an appreciative "audience" for your ideas now.

From June 12-29: 

Mercury transits your solar sixth house. This is a good placement for Mercury, as it is the natural ruler of the sixth house. It's an excellent period for sorting out the details of your daily existence. You are inclined to make to-do lists, pay bills and sort out clutter, and to do detail work on the job. Health matters are most certainly on your brain as well, and you could be thinking of scheduling check-ups or busy researching ways to improve your health. You may also show a keener interest in improving your basic skills.

Your approach to work during this cycle is pleasant, happy, and logical for the most part, unless you allow worry or scattered energy to enter the picture. You are inclined to want to learn new work skills, or to improve your skills and output in terms of work. There is likely to be more activity, movement, contact, and communications with co-workers now.

You tend to take more interest in organizing your working environment--and this is an excellent time to do so, as you are especially objective and intelligent when it comes to getting a handle on your daily affairs and all of the "little things" that contribute to a feeling of efficiency and competency. Menial tasks become more prominent. Watch, however, for tension or idle chit-chat interfering with your work output during this cycle.

From June 29th forward: 

Mercury transits your solar seventh house. You tend to weigh the pros and cons of every issue during this cycle, taking into account others' needs as well as your own. Some indecisiveness is possible now, simply because you naturally entertain opposing viewpoints. You have a strong desire to cooperate and communicate with others now. You feel most comfortable spending time with people on a one-to-one level, or with those with whom you share a personal history.

Interestingly, your own thoughts become clearer through dialogue with others during this window. You may be doing public relations work, counseling, negotiating, or arbitration during this cycle. There is a lot of emphasis on communications with partners and best friends at this time. You can use the power of words to advise others or to make peace with people in your life. You are more diplomatic than usual during this transit.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage

All month:

Mars continues to activate your solar first house, supplying you with added energy to apply towards personal goals, and a more assertive and direct approach to the world in general.

This is an excellent period for physical training and exercise of any kind. The desire to be self-sufficient and independent is especially strong now. You are far less tolerant of being restricted by or dependent on others, and this is a good time to identify your personal strengths and take positive action to rectify situations that may have previously felt frustrating or repressive.

You might be especially attracted to personal challenges, and seeing just how far you can push. However, be careful not to push yourself (and others) too far.

Mars is retrograde from June 26-August 27

All Mars retrograde cycles affect you in the areas of communication, siblings, neighbors, acquaintances, and transportation. Communication or transportation might take a hit somehow, making it harder to get from point A to point B, for example, or involving missed meetings, delays and red tape, challenges with studies, or mechanical breakdowns. There can be frustration with self-expression or impatience with social niceties.

From June 26-August 12

Occurring in your solar first house now, this Mars retrograde cycle is very up close and personal! The ways that your survival instincts have served you to date may not seem to be as effective, or you might be feeling cautious and withdrawn in a general way now. You might find that you are second-guessing yourself, and this is a natural process as you reassess how you've been going about meeting life and reacting/acting, which may need some polishing! It's a good time for refining these things. Your personal initiatives and confidence are affected. Perhaps you are less confident about your effectiveness and more cautious about sharing yourself with others. Personal initiatives might need to be put on the back burner, or you could show less enthusiasm for them. You may be a little tired and more accident-prone during this cycle, so be sure to rest up.

You are also examining the way anger has helped or impaired your life and coming up with new ways to manage it. In the process, you can experience some real frustrations. The end result, ideally, is a much-improved "you." It's time to rethink, revise, and reorganize your plans. Backtracking is a good idea now. How you assert yourself and how you go about going after what you want out of life are up for review now.
Watch for unacknowledged or buried desires driving your behavior.

Overview Horoscope:

June 2018 Monthly Horoscope for Aquarius: You're paying extra attention to pleasure-seeking activities, romance, creative projects, and hobbies in the first few weeks of June, dear Aquarius, with Mercury and the Sun in your solar fifth house until the 12th and 21st, respectively. It's a creative, interactive period for you, particularly with Mars also in your sign convincing you to go after what you want. This is a time for reconnecting with your "inner child." Ideally, you're feeling happier and freer. You might also enjoy increased contact and communication with your kids or a lover. You're motivated to pursue your passions.

Around the 4-5, there can be a clearing of the air, a moment of epiphany, news, or an overdue conversation related to any of these themes. You can be particularly communicative, articulate, and perhaps dramatic! This can also be a time for gaining some clarity about creative projects, a relationship, course, or a hobby. You're taking more pride in your work, ideas, and beliefs, and others are taking note. Creative projects could reach a turning point, or there can be a romantic revelation. The New Moon on the 13th brings fresh energy for new starts along these lines.

Later in June, the Sun and Mercury move into your work and health sector, and there is a shift of energy towards taking care of business. You'll be moving into a period of increased focus on routines and health. Even so, Venus is already in this sector of your chart at the start of June, helping to smooth and ease the transition. Until the 13th, you'll be seeking out more harmonious relations on the job, and the charm that you're displaying professionally is likely to be well-received. You may be making beneficial connections whether through the pursuit of your work and health goals or because of this stronger interest in these things. This is a favorable time for personal enjoyment of projects, organizing, list making, watching your nutrition, and the like. Venus transits your partnership sector from the 13th forward, and you'll find it mostly easy to harmonize with others. You're in good shape for enhancing and boosting a close relationship.

Neptune begins its yearly five-month retrograde on the 18th, and it can be a time of some rethinking, introspection, and indecisiveness. This cycle is good for exploring your dreams and spiritual needs. The station itself, however, can be a little disorienting until you acclimatize, making the week surrounding the 18th a time of some confusion. Remind yourself that holding off on making a decision or coming to a conclusion can be a good strategy now. Keep in mind that things are not as they seem, especially practical affairs and finances, as they can be skewed by wishful thinking or a temporary loss of faith and motivation. The Mercury-Jupiter-Neptune triangle on the 19-20 helps tremendously, though. It can be a fine time for powerful intuition regarding work, reputation, and career. There could be an appreciation for the work you do, good news can arrive, or you might discover important information, about health, money, or work. You can be more creative in your work, or you might be adding practical details to creative projects.

A Venus-Mars opposition on the 21st can be strong on you with Mars slowing down and in your sign. Someone may be frustrated with you, and perhaps that person is hoping you'll intuit what they truly want, but it can be difficult for you to pinpoint. Reactions can be strong now. Try to detach yourself emotionally just enough to stay in a calm place and work things out, but not so much that others think you're mocking them. You can learn a lot about yourself from whatever is triggered now.

Retrograde Mars on the 26th is big news for everyone, but especially so for you since Mars is currently transiting your sign. Watch that you don't book yourself solid early in the month as there can be a change of heart or slowdowns occurring later in June. You may not feel like following through, or you simply can't do so!

With Mars retrograde in your sign from the 26th, you can be more introspective. It's not that you lack confidence, but you're more inclined to look within for answers. Questioning your plans is likely, and in fact entirely necessary. The temptation to push ahead with personal plans is strong, but circumstances could have you feeling stuck. Watch for temper tantrums as you'll be at your strongest if you tame impatience and work on projects that need fine-tuning or completion rather than adding more to your plate. Correct misunderstandings swiftly, and don't dwell on matters you can't control, although the latter can be especially tricky with Mars in your sign and retrograde, as all sorts of buried frustrations can emerge in unexpected ways. The tendency to stew and to let things get to you is strong now. Some disconnects can happen now, but can also lead to greater understanding down the line. For now, try not to push matters (or others). Give them space, and give yourself space as well. Mars is retrograde from June 26 to August 27 but is retro in your sign until August 12th.

The 27-28 features a Capricorn Full Moon and a Sun-Saturn opposition. Both of these are yearly events, but they don't usually happen at the same time. You might need to face and deal with an area that you overlooked, neglected, or avoided in the past. You're motivated to work and take care of business, but taking care of an emotional matter or an obligation to help someone can slow you down. Others may not be appreciating all of your efforts, and this can serve to frustrate you, although left to fend for yourself, you may discover that you do just fine on your own! A reminder from the cosmos to arrive at a better work-life balance can come now, and while it can be annoying initially, pacing yourself can only be to your benefit.

Aquarius (Born January 31 to February 9) AND Aquarius Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Aquarius:

June 2018 Aquarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

Overview.

The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness

All month:

The Sun illuminates your solar fifth house now. After a period of "nesting", you are coming out of your shell, ready to perform and to express yourself creatively. This is a very playful period of the year, when you are inspired creatively and emotionally. After a period of self-protectiveness, you are now more spontaneous and more willing to take risks. You take more pride than usual in your creations, your love affairs, your children, and your hobbies. Pleasure and amusement play an important role in your search for freedom of self-expression now. Show off your best colors!

You want others to take notice, and you are more sensitive to whether people appreciate you. More than any time of the year, this is the cycle in which you focus on having fun, enjoying romance, and expressing yourself creatively. Your hobbies, leisure time, moments spent with children, gaming time, and so forth, all come into focus at this time of year.

This is a cycle in which you find joy in expressing who you are--when your "inner child" comes out to play. This is a time when you are more flirtatious than usual, and when you might take a few risks in life--not only gambling with games but with life itself. You might be a bit of a showman at this time. You are likely feeling good in general, and you tend to spread the joy.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort

Until the 22nd: 

Venus continues to move through your solar sixth house now. This is a time when beautifying and/or bringing harmony to your working environment is a priority to you. You might find more opportunities to socialize with co-workers, perhaps even meeting a new friend through your work or health routines. You are likely to bring more tact and diplomacy to your relations with the people you work with now. You may not be as productive as usual during this period, as the focus is more on social relationships and pleasure than on getting the job done. Improving health and vitality through pleasurable activities such as massage might be in focus now.

From June 22nd forward: 

Venus graces your solar seventh house during this period. This is a time for extra attention to a partner or significant other, as well as from that person! You are more inclined to flatter and charm others during this cycle. One-to-one relating appeals to you more than group activities or more casual connections. Smoothing out your close personal relationships is what makes you happy during this cycle. If single, you are more willing than normal to enter into a committed relationship. In general, you are adaptable when it comes to your affections--very willing to compromise, negotiate, and make peace.

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation

Until June 3rd:

Mercury continues to transit your solar fourth house. Your thoughts tend to revolve around personal matters, especially family, home, and domestic issues. You enjoy, more than usual, discussions and stories about the past and about family.

You are more rational and objective when it comes to your relationships with those close to you, so it is, in fact, a good time to open up discussions with family. There can be increased activities in and around the home during this cycle. You are not as interested in worldly matters and career as you are in your personal life for the time being.

From June 3-17: 

Mercury transits your solar fifth house. During this cycle, there is a powerful mental connection with your creative self-expression. You are proud of your ideas, and very good at expressing them to others smoothly now. Your thinking is more creative than usual. You tend to entertain others with your conversation; and your sense of humor (and of mischief!) is especially strong.

Your thoughts turn to children, pleasures, or romance during this expressive cycle. You might enjoy researching speculative ventures now. You especially enjoy games that involve competing with others on a mental level. You have a stronger need than usual for intellectual stimulation. Therefore, your friends and romantic partner are best appreciated now if they are intellectual types. You're more willing to take risks on a mental level now, so take advantage of the increased spontaneity and creativity that comes with this position.

From June 17th forward: 

Mercury transits your solar sixth house. This is a good placement for Mercury, as it is the natural ruler of the sixth house. It's an excellent period for sorting out the details of your daily existence. You are inclined to make to-do lists, pay bills and sort out clutter, and to do detail work on the job. Health matters are most certainly on your brain as well, and you could be thinking of scheduling check-ups or busy researching ways to improve your health. You may also show a keener interest in improving your basic skills.

Your approach to work during this cycle is pleasant, happy, and logical for the most part, unless you allow worry or scattered energy to enter the picture. You are inclined to want to learn new work skills, or to improve your skills and output in terms of work. There is likely to be more activity, movement, contact, and communications with co-workers now.

You tend to take more interest in organizing your working environment--and this is an excellent time to do so, as you are especially objective and intelligent when it comes to getting a handle on your daily affairs and all of the "little things" that contribute to a feeling of efficiency and competency. Menial tasks become more prominent. Watch, however, for tension or idle chit-chat interfering with your work output during this cycle.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage

All month:

Mars continues to energize your solar twelfth house now. While Mars occupies the twelfth house, asserting yourself in a direct and straightforward manner can be difficult. This is largely due to a feeling of not being in touch with what it is you want or desire just for the time being as you reassess your goals and needs.

This lack of direction and self-knowledge should prompt you to look within to learn about your desires. It is likely that you will be much clearer when Mars reaches your first house. For the time being, take some time for rest and give your ego a break.

Mars is retrograde from June 26-August 27

All Mars retrograde cycles affect you in the areas of communication, siblings, neighbors, acquaintances, and transportation. Communication or transportation might take a hit somehow, making it harder to get from point A to point B, for example, or involving missed meetings, delays and red tape, challenges with studies, or mechanical breakdowns. There can be frustration with self-expression or impatience with social niceties.

From June 26-August 12

Occurring in your solar twelfth house during this period, your spirituality, private life, gut instincts, and intuition are affected. Perhaps you are not as confident about your hunches. Private affairs and solitary work might need to be put on the back burner, or you could show less enthusiasm for them. Trusting your gut instincts may become an issue. Vague fears and anxieties need to be dealt with. Obsession with private matters or concerns about the past could be part of the picture. Your desire nature can be rather complicated now, and it can be difficult to find direct routes to satisfaction. Old resentments, hurts, and waves of anger can resurface. There can be lowered vitality, likely due to emotional frustrations and exasperation. It's time to rethink, revise, and reorganize your plans. Backtracking is a good idea now. This is a time for learning about how your mental health impacts your life.

Aquarius (Born February 10-19) and Aquarius Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Aquarius:

June 2018 Aquarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

Overview.

The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness

Until June 10th:

The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar fourth house. This is a period of recharge, of getting in touch with your innermost feelings, of connecting with your roots, and of spending more time and energy on home and family. Home and family matters capture your attention and are a strong source of pride now. It's a time when worldly matters are not as important to you.

Use this energy to find ways to improve your family relations and your home environment. During this heart-warming cycle, you would do best to allow yourself to explore your inner needs so that you can nurture yourself and others in a healthy, growth-oriented manner, in preparation for more outgoing times to come.

From June 10th forward:

The Sun illuminates your solar fifth house now. After a period of "nesting", you are coming out of your shell, ready to perform and to express yourself creatively. This is a very playful period of the year, when you are inspired creatively and emotionally. After a period of self-protectiveness, you are now more spontaneous and more willing to take risks. You take more pride than usual in your creations, your love affairs, your children, and your hobbies. Pleasure and amusement play an important role in your search for freedom of self-expression now. Show off your best colors!

You want others to take notice, and you are more sensitive to whether people appreciate you. More than any time of the year, this is the cycle in which you focus on having fun, enjoying romance, and expressing yourself creatively. Your hobbies, leisure time, moments spent with children, gaming time, and so forth, all come into focus at this time of year.

This is a cycle in which you find joy in expressing who you are--when your "inner child" comes out to play. This is a time when you are more flirtatious than usual, and when you might take a few risks in life--not only gambling with games but with life itself. You might be a bit of a showman at this time. You are likely feeling good in general, and you tend to spread the joy.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort

Until June 5th: 

Venus continues to transit your solar fifth house. Your popularity is on an upward trend during this cycle as others find you especially attractive and friendly. You may have the desire to dress well and in good taste. There is strength in your feelings of love and the power of attraction, which may open the door to new romantic relationships. Yet, you are not aggressive in your approach to love. Instead, you attract more if you allow yourself to be pursued during this cycle. Conditions are highlighted in connection with young people, and quite possibly a female child--a stronger bond could be formed during this period. You are feeling inspired creatively and romantically and you express your loving feelings quite openly now. Creative self-expression of any kind is favored at this time. You will also thoroughly enjoy artistic, musical, or cultural events and activities, especially in the company of a loved one. At this time, you instinctively know how to place yourself in the best light in order to make a good impression on others. Any love affair begun now will be characterized by good cheer, having fun, and a fair share of emotional drama!

From June 5th forward: 

Venus graces your solar sixth house now. Establishing a happy and harmonious work environment through friendly relations with co-workers or tidying up your work area comes into focus now. Romantic and social activities may revolve around your working environment. You are generally well liked and respected socially on the job right now. Some laziness is possible now, as you tend to associate pleasure with work! Perhaps you are socializing more than usual on the job. You have good team spirit during this cycle, and you are more tactful and obliging with your co-workers. You are less inclined to fall in love for the sake of love itself during this cycle. Your tendency is to consider whether it is clever to do so! You're most successful doing tasks that involve cooperation and team harmony. You could find that your talents or skills are especially appreciated. Romantic and social activities may revolve around your working environment.

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation

Until the 8th: 

Mercury continues to transit your solar fourth house. Your thoughts tend to revolve around personal matters, especially family, home, and domestic issues. You enjoy, more than usual, discussions and stories about the past and about family.

You are more rational and objective when it comes to your relationships with those close to you, so it is, in fact, a good time to open up discussions with family. There can be increased activities in and around the home during this cycle. You are not as interested in worldly matters and career as you are in your personal life for the time being.

From the 8-23: 

Mercury transits your solar fifth house. During this cycle, there is a powerful mental connection with your creative self-expression. You are proud of your ideas, and very good at expressing them to others smoothly now. Your thinking is more creative than usual. You tend to entertain others with your conversation; and your sense of humor (and of mischief!) is especially strong.

Your thoughts turn to children, pleasures, or romance during this expressive cycle. You might enjoy researching speculative ventures now. You especially enjoy games that involve competing with others on a mental level. You have a stronger need than usual for intellectual stimulation. Therefore, your friends and romantic partner are best appreciated now if they are intellectual types. You're more willing to take risks on a mental level now, so take advantage of the increased spontaneity and creativity that comes with this position.

From June 23rd forward: 

Mercury transits your solar sixth house. This is a good placement for Mercury, as it is the natural ruler of the sixth house. It's an excellent period for sorting out the details of your daily existence. You are inclined to make to-do lists, pay bills and sort out clutter, and to do detail work on the job. Health matters are most certainly on your brain as well, and you could be thinking of scheduling check-ups or busy researching ways to improve your health. You may also show a keener interest in improving your basic skills.

Your approach to work during this cycle is pleasant, happy, and logical for the most part, unless you allow worry or scattered energy to enter the picture. You are inclined to want to learn new work skills, or to improve your skills and output in terms of work. There is likely to be more activity, movement, contact, and communications with co-workers now.

You tend to take more interest in organizing your working environment--and this is an excellent time to do so, as you are especially objective and intelligent when it comes to getting a handle on your daily affairs and all of the "little things" that contribute to a feeling of efficiency and competency. Menial tasks become more prominent. Watch, however, for tension or idle chit-chat interfering with your work output during this cycle.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage

All month:

Mars continues to energize your solar twelfth house now. While Mars occupies the twelfth house, asserting yourself in a direct and straightforward manner can be difficult. This is largely due to a feeling of not being in touch with what it is you want or desire just for the time being as you reassess your goals and needs.

This lack of direction and self-knowledge should prompt you to look within to learn about your desires. It is likely that you will be much clearer when Mars reaches your first house. For the time being, take some time for rest and give your ego a break.

Mars is retrograde from June 26-August 27

All Mars retrograde cycles affect you in the areas of communication, siblings, neighbors, acquaintances, and transportation. Communication or transportation might take a hit somehow, making it harder to get from point A to point B, for example, or involving missed meetings, delays and red tape, challenges with studies, or mechanical breakdowns. There can be frustration with self-expression or impatience with social niceties.

From June 26-August 12

Occurring in your solar twelfth house during this period, your spirituality, private life, gut instincts, and intuition are affected. Perhaps you are not as confident about your hunches. Private affairs and solitary work might need to be put on the back burner, or you could show less enthusiasm for them. Trusting your gut instincts may become an issue. Vague fears and anxieties need to be dealt with. Obsession with private matters or concerns about the past could be part of the picture. Your desire nature can be rather complicated now, and it can be difficult to find direct routes to satisfaction. Old resentments, hurts, and waves of anger can resurface. There can be lowered vitality, likely due to emotional frustrations and exasperation. It's time to rethink, revise, and reorganize your plans. Backtracking is a good idea now. This is a time for learning about how your mental health impacts your life.

Overview Horoscope:

June 2018 Monthly Horoscope for Aquarius: You're paying extra attention to pleasure-seeking activities, romance, creative projects, and hobbies in the first few weeks of June, dear Aquarius, with Mercury and the Sun in your solar fifth house until the 12th and 21st, respectively. It's a creative, interactive period for you, particularly with Mars also in your sign convincing you to go after what you want. This is a time for reconnecting with your "inner child." Ideally, you're feeling happier and freer. You might also enjoy increased contact and communication with your kids or a lover. You're motivated to pursue your passions.

Around the 4-5, there can be a clearing of the air, a moment of epiphany, news, or an overdue conversation related to any of these themes. You can be particularly communicative, articulate, and perhaps dramatic! This can also be a time for gaining some clarity about creative projects, a relationship, course, or a hobby. You're taking more pride in your work, ideas, and beliefs, and others are taking note. Creative projects could reach a turning point, or there can be a romantic revelation. The New Moon on the 13th brings fresh energy for new starts along these lines.

Later in June, the Sun and Mercury move into your work and health sector, and there is a shift of energy towards taking care of business. You'll be moving into a period of increased focus on routines and health. Even so, Venus is already in this sector of your chart at the start of June, helping to smooth and ease the transition. Until the 13th, you'll be seeking out more harmonious relations on the job, and the charm that you're displaying professionally is likely to be well-received. You may be making beneficial connections whether through the pursuit of your work and health goals or because of this stronger interest in these things. This is a favorable time for personal enjoyment of projects, organizing, list making, watching your nutrition, and the like. Venus transits your partnership sector from the 13th forward, and you'll find it mostly easy to harmonize with others. You're in good shape for enhancing and boosting a close relationship.

Neptune begins its yearly five-month retrograde on the 18th, and it can be a time of some rethinking, introspection, and indecisiveness. This cycle is good for exploring your dreams and spiritual needs. The station itself, however, can be a little disorienting until you acclimatize, making the week surrounding the 18th a time of some confusion. Remind yourself that holding off on making a decision or coming to a conclusion can be a good strategy now. Keep in mind that things are not as they seem, especially practical affairs and finances, as they can be skewed by wishful thinking or a temporary loss of faith and motivation. The Mercury-Jupiter-Neptune triangle on the 19-20 helps tremendously, though. It can be a fine time for powerful intuition regarding work, reputation, and career. There could be an appreciation for the work you do, good news can arrive, or you might discover important information, about health, money, or work. You can be more creative in your work, or you might be adding practical details to creative projects.

A Venus-Mars opposition on the 21st can be strong on you with Mars slowing down and in your sign. Someone may be frustrated with you, and perhaps that person is hoping you'll intuit what they truly want, but it can be difficult for you to pinpoint. Reactions can be strong now. Try to detach yourself emotionally just enough to stay in a calm place and work things out, but not so much that others think you're mocking them. You can learn a lot about yourself from whatever is triggered now.

Retrograde Mars on the 26th is big news for everyone, but especially so for you since Mars is currently transiting your sign. Watch that you don't book yourself solid early in the month as there can be a change of heart or slowdowns occurring later in June. You may not feel like following through, or you simply can't do so!

With Mars retrograde in your sign from the 26th, you can be more introspective. It's not that you lack confidence, but you're more inclined to look within for answers. Questioning your plans is likely, and in fact entirely necessary. The temptation to push ahead with personal plans is strong, but circumstances could have you feeling stuck. Watch for temper tantrums as you'll be at your strongest if you tame impatience and work on projects that need fine-tuning or completion rather than adding more to your plate. Correct misunderstandings swiftly, and don't dwell on matters you can't control, although the latter can be especially tricky with Mars in your sign and retrograde, as all sorts of buried frustrations can emerge in unexpected ways. The tendency to stew and to let things get to you is strong now. Some disconnects can happen now, but can also lead to greater understanding down the line. For now, try not to push matters (or others). Give them space, and give yourself space as well. Mars is retrograde from June 26 to August 27 but is retro in your sign until August 12th.

The 27-28 features a Capricorn Full Moon and a Sun-Saturn opposition. Both of these are yearly events, but they don't usually happen at the same time. You might need to face and deal with an area that you overlooked, neglected, or avoided in the past. You're motivated to work and take care of business, but taking care of an emotional matter or an obligation to help someone can slow you down. Others may not be appreciating all of your efforts, and this can serve to frustrate you, although left to fend for yourself, you may discover that you do just fine on your own! A reminder from the cosmos to arrive at a better work-life balance can come now, and while it can be annoying initially, pacing yourself can only be to your benefit.
