Scorpio Horoscope for June 2015

This is a powerful month for you, Scorpio, continuing the beat of transformational rearrangements of your psyche. As these percolate through your awareness, they are illuminating the dark corners of your personality — providing you with plentiful food for thought and for soul growth. In keeping with the recent New Moon in your opposite sign, you have relationship issues on your mind, as you enter into a meditative month of introspection. The subject of your reflections is likely to be the meaning of intimate connection for your life, and for your connection to spiritual truth. For this you are diving deep into interior realms that have much to tell you about your own hanging patterns and your soul intention. This is especially so in the second half of the month. It is certainly true that you cannot form a relationship with another without first forming a relationship with yourself.

As the month begins, you are very aware of the extent to which you are a vehicle for intimate connection with another, as you simultaneously proceed with the soul growth implied by your own independent pursuit of attempting to understand what it is that you hold inside that is uniquely your own. While the recent mid-May New Moon took place in your opposite sign, corresponding to your partnership sector, the Sagittarius Full Moon in this first week of June brings the energy back home to your own concerns. Your ruler, Mars, is in aspect to both Saturn and Pluto in these key configurations, implying a sense of isolation and of planting your feet upon the steep learning curve of inner work. With Mercury retrograding through your intimacy sector, you are in a deeply meditative frame of mind for most of the month, looking beneath the surface forms of nearly everything, and most especially regarding what you are up to at soul level.

The conversation around higher ideals and life-long learning continues in an expansive way for you this month, and more specifically around those elements of career that are consistent with the sense of purpose that emerges from deep listening, and from posing the question of what it is that you are on this Earth to do. Your journey here is activated in depth work and transforming your intellect's capacity to relate and orient more coherently with your higher self. While you are no stranger to the dark and mysterious areas of the human psyche, this month you may notice more passion, fire, and exuberance coming through in shadow realms. In Buddhist philosophy the willingness to be with and witness one's own pain and suffering is a key component, and can give access to greater empathy and compassion for others' experiences. You are being granted extra belly fire and robust vitality to do exactly that, bringing an earnest and willing acceptance to those things in life that are less easy to be with. The effort you put forth now can have a potent and lasting effect.

You are fortunate lately in outer world accomplishment and manifestation, corresponding to a powerful placement of expansive Jupiter in your tenth solar sector of career and professional achievement. You may have been discovering that an optimistic attitude can work wonders. The rub is that it all feels empty without an overriding philosophy guiding your steps in a direction consistent with needs that are spiritual as well as material. Your grounding for the work that you are achieving is huge, and some of that inherent practicality is translating into a deep appreciation of soul-level concerns that provide the real reason to advance in the particular direction of your choosing. During what is essentially an important time of reflection you have the opportunity to stop to think about what you are up to, and may be in the process of discovering that between inner and outer concerns it is the interior ones that are the more important of the two.

A prominent Neptune this month, located in the self-expression sector of your chart, symbolizes a monthly period when your state of mind feels a little less solid, and more like energies that are nebulous and swirling. For you this may be affecting your creative urges, or potentially your relations with your offspring or other children. There can be sweet imagination and poetic inspiration, yet this could also manifest as a sense of tension between what is actually coming forth into obvious, physical reality in contrast to what can be felt in the depths of the ethers and in your own deep center. This is a wonderful time to envision, find inspiration, and for paying close attention to the symbolism of your dreams. With Mercury still in retrograde, or escaping its shadow, a time that lasts until the 26th of the month, it may not be the best time to expect your visions to land quickly into concrete reality, nor is it an optimal moment to be making weighty decisions about your future. Illusion and confusion are prominent themes where Neptune is found, and yet these can also be offset by a willingness to intentionally float along in uncertainty, with a seed of trust that solid ground will eventually appear beneath your feet, at exactly the right moment.
