Sunday, JUNE 21

The Sun enters Cancer today, marking the solstice. The Sun will transit the sign until July 22nd.

This period invites us to turn our attention inward, 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 becomes a sharper focus. We’re more invested in our personal lives in the month ahead, offering us an opportunity for self-discovery.

The Sun forms a sextile with Chiron, and we might find a sense of purpose or a “mission,” which could increase our confidence, possibly through our communications and connections. The desire to learn and grow through experiences and people is strong and healthy now. Problem-solving is favored.

The Moon visits Libra from 4:55 PM EDT onward, and the First Quarter Moon occurs at 5:55 PM, when the Cancer Sun forms a square with the Libra Moon.

We may become aware of obstacles related to a plan or project. This can be a time of stress, clashing, and discord, but also high energy, motivation, and growth. We’re competitive and ambitious, stirred into action.

Otherwise, the Libra Moon, with its balanced and diplomatic nature, focuses our attention on harmonizing our relationships and environment. A Venus-Ceres aspect also in play today can have us feeling pleasantly attached to others or to our pursuits. Nurturing and supporting people in our lives comes naturally.

The Moon is void from 1:34 PM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to Jupiter), until the Moon enters Libra at 4:55 PM EDT.
