You still find yourself in the very midst of transformation, Capricorn. Even though past the fires of April, and entering upon a newer phase of your voyage to wholeness, the beat goes on. You are reestablishing yourself along new lines. This is a time of great potential confusion, so that discernment must be applied. You are experiencing a surge of energy for outer achievement, while questioning nearly every aspect of what you are about, most notably your everyday practice in terms of health and habitual behavior, and as well your relationship to important others in your life. With Mercury Retrograde, this is a significant month of refinement of inner insight, as you struggle to better define of what your ultimate purpose might consist, and how to get from where you are to where you want to be.
As the month begins, you find yourself in the wake of the Gemini New Moon from mid-week in the last days of May. A feeling of new life is breathing into your day-to-day existence. This monthly cycle will likely be a time where adjusting and tweaking habits and routines may be of great benefit to you. This month as well, you could notice yourself wanting to check out of the daily grind, escaping into daydreams or fantasy more often than is usual, because Neptune makes a perfect square to the New Moon. While the pragmatist in you could perhaps find considerable discontent in the foggy quality of your current thought forms, this can also be an opportunity for novel neuro-pathways and new thought patterns to emerge as you allow your imagination to explore and wander.
With Mars having stationed to direct motion late in May, he is finally making up for lost ground and, returning to his usual fiery forward-driving self, is passing through your career sector. You could find yourself also returning to an emotional place where you can palpably feel your drive for momentum and movement returning. You have likely experienced in these past few months a sense of contemplation and mulling over in regard to your work or career; now the wheels begin to turn again, and taking right action could feel more easeful. You might also need to take into consideration the slowing down of forward momentum represented by the Mercury Retrograde that begins on Saturday, June 7th , and lasts for the rest of the month, and into July when you take the shadow period into account.
Mercury plays a large role in this month's configurations, because as it stations retrograde, after moving into the first few degrees your opposite sign of Cancer, it then sweeps back through Gemini, corresponding to your sector of everyday events and service to others. You will likely have some backwards glances to take in terms of reconsidering the ways that you do relationship in your life, as well as the nitty-gritty nuts and bolts of your day-to-day existence. This is likely a good time for you to re-implement better eating habits, sleep regimens, or any daily routine related to your health and well being. There may also be an element of re-organizing or refreshing your workspace in a way that feels in alignment with a renewed sense of fitness and aesthetics, allowing you greater scope for expansion.
Much of this month's astrology seems geared, for you, toward the external, yet there is still a strong element of internal and personal growth present. A grand trine between Chiron, Jupiter, and your ruling planet Saturn is beckoning a portion of your attention to some of the wounded or painful places inside of you. The opportunity is at hand this month to see into the ways that your thoughts are still operating from beliefs and coping mechanisms that were formed when you were very young. These outdated modes may be limiting you in some way; perhaps your sense of belonging comes into question from these hurt places, and is blocking you from connecting more fully with your community, or feeling at home within humanity itself. You benefit when you tap into your sense of regeneration and renewal, where more mature and empowered beliefs can be formed that better serve the person you wish to become, moving forward.
