The time has come for results, Pisces, but your best choice might be studied action based on intuitional information. There has been a strong emphasis this past month on unconscious process, perhaps by way of inner wounding, the residue of long-buried early trauma, coming to greater conscious awareness. The recent mid-May Taurus New Moon presided over hidden matters, communication and learning, as well as concepts of service to others, while the month-long period of Mercury in retrograde motion, or in its retrograde shadow, has had you coming at life from a standpoint of review, readjustment, and introspection. The June 3rd Sagittarius Full Moon represents a balance point between public and private; your career is one focus, and you are being urged to consider that what you do in outer arenas like career and professional life is conditioned by sincere principles and values that you hold deep inside. The Gemini New Moon of June 17th is quite a potent lunation for you, a fresh start. You are getting grounded within yourself and within your fundamental core values, which becomes the stepping stone for an entirely new mandate of moving forward with more greatly centered confidence and integrated awareness.

Last month's Taurus New Moon from May 19th took place in your sector of the mind, communication, and local environments, and the effects of this rather potent New Moon play out throughout the first half of June as you continue to explore your evolving cerebral landscape. This New Moon which launched the thirty-day lunation cycle concluding in mid-June featured a strongly transformational presence of Pluto in the first degree of Aquarius, in a grand cross with Jupiter, Mars, and the new Nature planet, Haumea. By their locations in your solar chart this affected your sectors of communication and curiosity, creative self-expression, and higher mind, and, as well, your sector of unconscious process and inner work. These are all subtle areas of your life, and of your psychological makeup, and yet they underlie much of what goes on in the outer world of schedules and surface activities.
On June 1st, Jupiter conjunct the Lunar North Node which brings an almost fated sense to the ongoing metamorphosis of this June month. Aided by Mercury escaping its retrograde shadow, June also supports the continued cultivation of confidence in your communication abilities, perspective shifts, and the creative power of following your curiosity to wherever it leads you.
The June 3rd Sagittarius Full Moon occurs in your sector of public image and professional aspirations, indicating that recent learning pursuits or topics that are sparking your curiosity may create a fertile foundation to support future career ambitions. This lunation asks you to dream big and get in touch with your most meaningful and creative professional aims. Mercury's conjunction with Uranus in Taurus in this Full Moon may aid in intellectual activities or psychological exploration by offering sudden cognitive breakthroughs or rapid shifts in your perspective. It could be a particularly prolific few days for writing or communication. The environment you inhabit is a fertile sphere of learning for you right now, and anything found there may be a teacher if you are listening. This transit encourages you to welcome the unexpected – perhaps you might have a fascinating encounter with a stranger in a park, hear from a friend or sibling out of the blue, or obtain an exciting opportunity by sharing your creative work online.
On June 5th, Venus enters Leo, joining Mars already there in your sector of health, service, and life management, asking you to consider how to include more self-care, leisure, and laughter in your daily routines. Simple celebrations to infuse more joy into the mundane may be particularly important as the stern influence of Saturn moves through your sign over the next few years. Venus' opposition to Pluto in your sector of dreams, shadows, and the subconscious may bring up topics related to illness and your body, including issues around body image and mental health. It may be helpful to give yourself extra nourishment around this time, with a holistic focus on health and nurturing your relationship with your body and self-esteem. This transit also encourages reflection about how you allocate your time and energy to others, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing space for your own well-being.
On June 11th, Pluto returns to Capricorn, corresponding to your sector of friends, community, and higher aspirations, and suggesting there may be unfinished business to complete or discard before moving into the future. Pluto will return to the Aquarius sign only after the end of the year. Mercury's trine to Pluto, occurring in the final degrees of Taurus and Capricorn, just as Mercury ingresses into Gemini, may bring up a past conflict with a friend or within a social circle that you can now approach with a new perspective. This transit might facilitate deep conversation and practical problem-solving, or you may be considering how to mobilize your mind and values to get behind a cause in the community. Venus's square to Jupiter across your sectors of daily routine and the mind indicate a highly social period that may strain your day-to-day obligations but will stimulate you nonetheless.
The cerebral Gemini New Moon on June 17th brings focus to your sphere of home and family, possibly with a new curiosity about your ancestry and cultural lineage, as well as your own psychological patterns rooted in intergenerational family dynamics. Mercury's sextile to Venus in Leo in this New Moon configuration also suggests you may be able to apply yourself to learning through diligent daily work or even utilize your cerebral skills to make money working from home.
This New Moon is modulated by action in your sign, representing the sphere of identity, personal ambitions, and appearance, with Saturn's same day station retrograde there and with the Sun and Moon making a square aspect to Neptune in Pisces. This transit may bring up tension between shifting personal priorities for you and stability within your home. Saturn's station retrograde may nudge you to recommit to yourself and your sovereignty. You are likely going through a significant realignment that may also involve reimagining what family or home means to you.
The Sun moves into Cancer at the solstice on June 21st, shining its light on your personal self-expression, creativity, and joy sector. This season emphasizes creative fulfillment, pleasure, and projects you are birthing into the material world, including topics related to children. Supportive aspects between Cancer and Pisces the following week indicate a creative period where you may be deepening a commitment to a creative practice or experiencing a pleasurable period of romance and leisure.
The volatile fixed sign square between Mars and Uranus on June 24th to the 26th takes place across your sectors of daily schedule and your mental faculties, in the context of the First Quarter Moon of June 26th. This is an unpredictable transit, which brings possibilities for novel action and also the potential for accidents, which is a classic outcome for this astrological signature. You could even see an explosive ideological dispute erupt from nowhere. The good news is that you can harness the liberating qualities of this transit to disrupt stagnant mental patterns and infuse confidence into your organizational skills. You may want to move restless feelings through your body with vigorous exercise and take caution driving over these days – for all that tension that may be in the air.
Mercury's conjunction with the Sun in Cancer on June 30th takes place in your sphere of self-expression, creativity, and children, offering a jolt of optimism or perhaps unexpected news. This day welcomes the pursuit of pleasure and joy. Supportive aspects from Mercury and the Sun in Cancer to your spheres of identity and the mind indicate that you may be committing to an exciting new creative project related to new skills you are cultivating or the communicative arts. While Neptune's retrograde station in your identity sector may initiate a mood of melancholia as you head into July, retreating to the familiar waters of timeless dream space may yet help you tap into creative, intuitive realms of intelligence following the significant mental focus of the past few months.
