Sunday, JUNE 16

The Moon spends another day in Libra, and we’re especially relationship-focused.

Both Venus and Mercury will enter Cancer tomorrow morning, but before they change signs, they form squares to Neptune–Venus tonight and Mercury early tomorrow.

These transits can cast a veil over our needs, wants, and perceptions. We find it challenging to follow or clearly communicate facts, directions, and instructions. Perceptions may be confused or overly idealistic, influenced heavily by wishful thinking and imagination. We may be dealing with deception or self-deception, and it can be difficult to be discriminating. We may be dreaming up the ideal, which can clash with reality. We can lack some discrimination, particularly regarding people we care about, information, our relationships, and material things.

However, by engaging in self-reflection, we can separate fact from fiction and avoid setting ourselves up for disappointment. What appears to be a great buy or something we need may turn out to be useless to us, or worse, a financial drain or money pit. Lines can blur with pursuing pleasure, as we can convince ourselves to believe what we want to think. We’re likely too close to the situation.

By examining discontent experienced now, we can identify where we’ve neglected our spiritual, idealistic, romantic, or imaginative needs, empowering us to take control of our lives. On the plus side, our minds are open to many possibilities and options.
