Thursday, JUNE 20

The Sun enters Cancer today, marking the solstice, but before it does, it forms a square with Neptune.

This transit, while challenging, also presents a unique opportunity for spiritual growth. We might question our purpose, goals, or sense of duty, and if we’ve lacked inspiration or motivation, we can feel it more acutely now. We may be dealing with some disorganization, impracticality, or a temporary energy drain.

However, this transit also challenges us to consider our needs for inspiration and imagination, which might conflict with our plans and goals. Until we find ways to incorporate more spirit into our lives, there can be problems with feeling motivated. It can be a time of increased spiritual awareness and vision, even if we initially struggle with this. There may be detours or distractions to deal with now.

Ideally, we come up with ideas for refueling, and this new energy is more authentic and fulfilling.

Because this problematic square occurs so late in the signs of Gemini and Pisces, we should watch for impulsive decision-making based on our current perceptions, which can be a little skewed or warped temporarily.

The Sun’s transit of Cancer starts today and runs until July 22nd. This period invites us to turn our attention inwards, to our nests–our families, homes, base of operations, and anything that makes us feel safe and secure. Nurturing and caring for loved ones and pet projects become a sharper focus. We’re more invested in our personal lives in the month ahead, offering a unique opportunity for self-discovery.

On the other hand, the Moon spends the day in Sagittarius, igniting our desire for something different, new, or spirited. This transit encourages us to embrace adventure and open our minds to new experiences for a refreshing change of pace.
