Get A Jump On Tomorrow….

Your Daily Horoscopes for Sunday, June 26th

Aries

There could be a missed connection or off timing in your relationships today, dear Aries, and possibly some miscommunication that makes it less than ideal to make a move or present your case! You might be pulled into disagreements about sharing responsibilities, imbalances of power, or money. If someone close to you is tense without apparent reason, try not to let it spoil your own mood. Later today, you can be especially sharp in a debate. You are more fluent than usual when it comes to expressing your ideas, and this can take the form of writing and speaking, so be sure to either surround yourself with people or work on emails and other communications that need your attention. Not only you, but also people you are communicating with now, tend to be more open-minded and willing to hear progressive ideas. This is a time for a bright idea or intellectual win.

Taurus

There can be a feeling that you’re not getting the whole story from someone today, dear Taurus, or you could be faced with someone’s cool responses to your excitement. Timing is a little off now. Life can be a little hectic and surprising, and some romantic hiccups and confusing communications are possible. Even so, there is good energy later today for talking things through. You might quite suddenly find an answer to, or understand, something that you could never figure out. News tends to be favorable, new ideas are abundant, and people tend to be supportive of your opinions and thoughts. Emotional, romantic, or loving gestures may not go over as smoothly as you’d like, however.

Gemini

The urge to splurge may be strong, but you could be getting some disapproval from a partner or friend, dear Gemini. It can be difficult to truly know whether you want to get close to someone or if you want to have some space. However, as the day moves forward, you seem to know exactly what to say at the right moment. Despite some social awkwardness or poor timing, witty answers and great lines are likely to be part of your day, and you may solve a problem or two, not only for yourself, but for others as well. It’s certainly a good time to get your point across, and others may be admiring your originality.

Cancer

Venus in your sign forms an awkward angle to Saturn today, dear Cancer, and you may sense some resistance to your plans. This can be due to your own insecurities or worries about your responsibilities, or it could be coming from a disapproving person in your life. You may be feeling restless with your routine, and bothered by elements of your daily life that are not working very smoothly. Part of you wants to enjoy yourself and indulge, while another part wants to put things into order. Instead of turning this into an either-or situation, try to manage doing both in smaller ways. Take the day slowly, and consider that you may experience errors in judgment right now. Your thinking is more creative than usual later today. Thoughts of the past tend to dominate, but you’re putting a new spin on old matters, or seeing old problems in a new light. There can be a sudden impulse to contact someone, or you can be the recipient of surprising contact. Be sure to break the routine even just a little in order to make the most of this fun energy.

Leo

There can be a feeling of imbalance and some indecision with Venus and Saturn in an awkward angle today, dear Leo. Something could be holding you back from expressing yourself freely, or there may be some off timing to deal with. As well, there can be a tendency to speak without thinking of what may come of it, possibly revealing a secret. Avoid jumping to conclusions and jumping into action. The second half of the day is likely to be pleasantly lively. It’s a good time for learning new skills, particularly of a technical or scientific nature, but also for what seem to be simple conversations that can lead to something more helpful. New ideas and alternative methods can be inspiring now.

Virgo

When it comes to bosses, parents, or other people in authority, communications can be off at times today, dear Virgo. Avoid falling for bluffs and strive to be clear in your own communications. Alternatively, you could be questioning or escaping some of your duties and goals. Treat doubts as red flags only if they persist for some time, as they may simply have to do with insecurities. There can be a tendency to jump to conclusions and to get worked up about others’ ideas or beliefs. If you can rise above it, today is good for reflecting on recent events in your life and for dreaming up career and business goals. Later today is particularly strong for self-expression and pleasant surprises. Good thinking along practical or business lines is likely.

Libra

Differences of opinion can bother you more than usual today, dear Libra. There can be a myriad of little problems to deal with right now, but the trick is to handle the attitude or mindset first – try to rise above the problems. Watch for overspending and errors in judgment, particularly on a financial level. Something said might offend you, but it’s up to you to look for and see the bigger picture. Conversations can be very fruitful and even inspiring later today. Sharing a similar view point, or even an entirely new one, can help strengthen a bond. You are more expressive than usual, and certainly in the mood to learn or teach. There can be good news today, or you might hear something that puts a spring in your step.

Scorpio

There could be some wavering about going forward with a relationship or financial matter today, dear Scorpio, and perhaps this is, in fact, a helpful sign to wait things out. Something that’s said or learned today can take you by surprise or catch you off guard, perhaps putting you into an uncomfortable position. For example, you might learn new information about someone and are not sure what to think of it. Wait things out. All may not be as it appears. Your mind certainly deserves a break from the daily drudge, and as the day progresses, there can be some intellectual adventure that comes to the rescue. New insights into old problems can occur now.

Sagittarius

Rhythms in relationships, feelings, and love, can be a little off or awkward today, dear Sagittarius. You may very well be second-guessing things, but it’s best not to push for answers. You can be at peace with others and at war with yourself if you choose to make compromises that don’t feel entirely right. Save important decisions and discussions for clearer times. In all likelihood, you’ll be pulled in an entirely new direction and towards a new perspective later today. You can be especially intrigued by what you are told or what you hear. Enjoy exchanges of new ideas and innovative solutions, but keep things light just for now.

Capricorn

You may need to deal with errors or discrepancies from the past that hold you back from enjoying the present, dear Capricorn. Someone may be critical of your work and there can be a general tendency for people to speak hastily and without much sensitivity. Try not to let it get to you. There is good energy with you for solving problems, however. You are more likely to voice concerns, ask for help, or express your ideas. Alternatives can be introduced now that lead you to rethink old problems and concerns. Reception is a mixed bag today – sometimes warm or excited, and sometimes indifferent or critical – but if you focus on doing your best and aim to avoid taking things too personally, this is a good time for breakthrough thinking.

Aquarius

There may be some confusing social or work situations today that require waiting things out before clarity comes, dear Aquarius. There can be disagreements or disconnects, as well as indecision, figuring rather strongly now. You may not be able to come to a comfortable decision today, and that’s okay – it’s probably best you hold out for a more flowing time to clinch deals, present your case, or lock something down. Even so, you can take special pleasure in expressing your more unorthodox ideas, and fortunately, others are listening later today. You are seeking out more interesting and offbeat ideas and subjects, and it’s important for you to take a break from your usual routine, particularly on an intellectual level.

Pisces

The desire for pleasure and/or affection can be strong today, dear Pisces, but you may not be able to fully relax as the demands of others or the outside world can weigh heavily on you. This is due to a Venus-Saturn influence active today. There can also be a tendency to speak about things that others may prefer to keep private, or to stir up some controversy with what’s communicated. People tend to be rubbing one another the wrong way, and it’s best to either try to speak with more sensitivity or to avoid sensitive topics altogether. Despite some awkward energy with us today, you can make interesting discoveries, particularly about home or domestic matters. You might come up with fresh solutions to old problems, or seek out alternative methods to the usual way of doing things, and can be quite satisfied as a result.

If Today is Your Birthday: June 25

You have an unusually strong, and to some, uncanny, sense of the needs or problems of others. You are an observer, and although very much a people lover, you frequently need your “space” in order to regroup. You often don’t speak about something until you’re quite certain you know what you’re going to say. Your intuition is outstanding – you need only learn to trust it.

Famous people born today: Carly Simon, George Michael, George Orwell, Phyllis George, Chloe Webb.

Your Birthday Year Forecast

Your birthday occurs around a First Quarter Moon this year, and you are reaching an important turning point in terms of personal growth. You may be more emotional this year, and should watch for unnecessary conflicts and making hasty decisions as a result. Otherwise, this is a year of great energy, motivation, and growth. You are more ambitious and desirous of action in the year ahead. This should be a busy, dynamic period in your life.

This can be a year in which you are bolder, more assertive, and energetic. You are especially interested in setting goals and challenges for yourself this year, and taking the necessary action to meet them. You may meet or interact with others who encourage or inspire you in some way to have more confidence in yourself. Your energy levels are generally strong this year, and your sense of timing better than usual. Independent work is favored and competitive activities may also thrive this year, although you may need to tone things down at times, and learn more patience. Your passions and enthusiasm run high, and the trick is to channel this extra energy constructively.

You are attracting relationships that are fair and balanced. Your decorative or artistic sense is more strongly developed this year. Making new contacts through learning and mental pursuits figures strongly at this time in your life. You might find that others are more cooperative with you this year.

Even so, with Mercury in challenging aspect to Neptune in your Solar Return, some difficulties with communications are possible during this period. There can be misunderstandings, misinformation, wishful thinking, confusion, carelessness, and deception. Verify the facts before making decisions and avoid taking precipitate action. Read all the fine print before signing a contract or making an agreement.

Pleasing circumstances surrounding your love life, finances, and creative pursuits are in store this year. You are more generous, and others return the favor. You might receive financial backing or special gifts in the period ahead. You seek a little more from your love life and you are likely to receive it. Some of you could fall in love this year, or existing relationships are enhanced. Adventure-seeking is a theme.

Your open heart is likely to attract easygoing friendships or love opportunities into your life. This can be a good year for social meetings and events. You tend to happily embrace all that is new, unusual, and out-of-the-ordinary with regards to romantic involvements as well as financial undertakings. You have a taste for the offbeat this year, and this energy can bring sudden or unexpected romance into your life, perhaps a scenario that feels like love at first sight.

A Jupiter-Uranus trine in your Return chart suggests that an enterprising spirit this year can really take you places. Sudden opportunities for advancement in different areas of your life appear. At the heart of this is your ability to recognize and capitalize upon opportunities and potentials. Fortunate events occur as a direct result of your willingness to entertain the unusual and to think outside of the box. This aspect favors group activities, financial endeavors associated with groups or organizational efforts, educational pursuits, writing, publishing, speaking, and humanitarian efforts.

You are bolder and more courageous this year, and you’re quick to take the initiative. You might watch for impatience or rebelliousness, which can trip you up at times. Overlooking important details can also be a problem. It can be a good year for both independent work and partnerships. Others are more cooperative and generous with you, and you’re more willing to branch out and try new things. Your social life is likely to blossom.

2015 is a Number Three year for you. Ruled by Jupiter. This is a year of sociability. It is a friendly time, when it is easy to enjoy life and other people. Focus is on personal freedom, reaching out to others, making new friends, and exploration. You are more enthusiastic and ready for adventure. It is likely to be a rather lighthearted year, when opportunities for “play” time are greater than usual. It’s also a good year for expressing your creativity. Advice – reach out, but avoid scattering your energies.

2016 will be a Number Four year for you. Ruled by Uranus. This is a year of work and development. It’s “nose to the grindstone” time. It’s a time to deal with practical matters, and it’s not a time to be lazy or especially gregarious. Sometimes, it can be a year that feels hard, monotonous and routine, and/or lonely. Positive new relationships are generally not formed in a Four personal year. Advice – get yourself organized, work to build your resources, keep busy.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Saturday, June 25th

Aries

You need more than usual rest, time to yourself, and opportunities to digest and process recent events today, dear Aries. Even so, you are in a good frame of mind for work and long-term goals. You are entertaining strong ideas about where you’d like your life to go, and how to get there! Motivation builds as you feel a sense of purpose or destination. Others may be showing you more respect or they may be admiring your work. There can also be more demand for your work or projects opening up to you. This can also be a good time for making big, positive changes in your daily routines or with your habits.

Taurus

You are more sensitive to the needs of others today, dear Taurus, but also to your own need to feel that you belong. While you may be wrestling with your expectations of others right now, you are very far-sighted when it comes to projects and goals. These days, you are commanding attention in a positive way, and you are approaching your life with more confidence and self-assurance. There may be opportunities to study, travel, and connect to people and ideas that expand your mind and worldview. You are in a strong position to sniff out good opportunities and to gravitate towards pursuits that are destined to be successful.

Gemini

Demands on your time are rather strong today, dear Gemini, and you’re especially sensitive to how you’re coming across or how you’re performing. Fortunately, you’re appreciated by others for the most part, although there can be some criticism coming from a partner. This is a good time to get your priorities straight and to put in a little extra effort. With Jupiter and Pluto coming to their final trine tomorrow, this is a good time for improved family and domestic matters as well as for making positive lifestyle changes. Financial support may be available to you. Business and home matters can expand or improve, and you’re likely to find more support or backing for what you’re doing.

Cancer

Satisfying the wanderlust in you, even in a small way, can be rewarding now, dear Cancer. Break the routine and do something different, creative, and imaginative. Allow for some freeform activities, but also take advantage of the focused, ambitious Jupiter-Pluto influence with you now. Learning, sharing, and connecting are in strong focus and can take on deeper, more meaningful layers. Your views toward love and commitment can transform. You could find motivation to pursue a dream project. Transportation and communication opportunities can open up. There are wonderful opportunities emerging for friendships as well as personal influence.

Leo

You are paying closer attention to those things you normally sweep under the carpet, dear Leo. This can be helpful in moderate doses, after which you may be inviting a bit of drama! Self-improvement endeavors are highly favored now, not only because the Moon is in your psychological solar eighth house, but because of a Jupiter-Pluto connection that stimulates personal ambition. This can be about money on the surface of things, but it’s more likely to be about gaining the ability to experience more of life on your own terms. While it’s a more introspective day than most, you are getting along with others and feeling supported. A project begun last fall may be spreading its wings or could need your attention. You can be especially motivated to produce, build, accumulate, and prove your worth.

Virgo

With the Moon in your opposing sign all day, dear Virgo, this is the time of month when you seek out companionship and tend to avoid executive decisions in favor of collaboration. However, with Jupiter’s trine to Pluto occurring now, you’re actually in a great position to make decisions that further personal plans and goals. Your confidence in yourself is building, and you are likely to find it easier to ask for – or take – what you want from life. This is a good time for picking up or renewing a satisfying hobby. Look for opportunities to express yourself in new or improved ways. Some of you could be trying out a new look or attitude, and it’s likely to be quite successful now.

Libra

While this is a good time for focusing on work and routines, dear Libra, there is nothing ordinary or routine about your attitude today. In fact, you’re looking to make some long-term changes as Jupiter and Pluto move towards their final trine in a set that began in October. This is a great time for giving a lifestyle change an extra push. It’s a time of emotional bravery – you are ready to face up to fears that may have been holding you back from pursuing happiness wholeheartedly. Improvements can be especially noticeable surrounding finances, family and home matters, and personal development. Support from or of family can be rewarding now. You find it easier to address tricky issues and to express your deeper emotions. This can be a good time for physical renovations in addition to emotional ones, particularly around the home.

Scorpio

This is a good day for entertaining your more playful and/or creative ideas, dear Scorpio. Even so, it’s also a time for tuning into your serious ambitions and ideas with Jupiter and Pluto coming together in a trine. This is the last of three such aspects in a set that began in October, and it’s an empowering influence. This is a time for discovering more meaning and purpose in your life, particularly related to communicating, connecting, and sharing. You are building more faith in yourself, and others more readily see and appreciate your efforts. You are turned to as an expert on a matter, and/or teaching and guiding others can figure strongly. You’re feeling more passionately about what you do and what you believe, and this is reflected in the work you do.

Sagittarius

With the Moon in your sector of family and home all day, dear Sagittarius. You are more likely to stick with familiar and comfortable people and situations rather than venturing out or taking a risk, just for the time being. Even so, with Jupiter and Pluto connecting in a trine tomorrow, this is a strong period for entertaining personal ambitions. You are coming across well and attracting respect. Whether it’s about work or an important goal, you’re more focused on achieving. Look for ways to boost relationships with higher-ups. Your talents may be recognized and appreciated, or you could simply enjoy developing and using them.

Capricorn

You are more curious than usual today, dear Capricorn, looking to branch out and experiment. The pace of your life seems quickened, mostly in a pleasant way. It’s best not to be rooted to one place or task, as this is an important time for diversifying. A Jupiter-Pluto influence with you now stimulates your ambition and encourages belief in yourself and your future. It’s a good time to put your feelers out, make connections, do research, and pay special attention to your intuition. This can be a time for sharing ideas and teaching or guiding others quite successfully. It can be very satisfying to learn new things and meet new people.

Aquarius

Balance is sought today, dear Aquarius, and emotions tend to settle down. You are seeking out more comfort and safety, but you’re also prepared to temporarily upset the balance in order to secure these things. A Jupiter-Pluto connection motivates you to make important, empowering lifestyle changes. Ambition to get to the bottom of emotional problems in your life is strong now. This is about facing fears and breaking through taboos. There can be a nice feeling of growth and improvement experienced in a special relationship, or through more honesty with yourself. Bonds are strengthening. This is a solid period for support and counseling as well.

Pisces

The Moon is in your sign all day, dear Pisces, and you can feel as if you are beginning anew on an emotional level. This is an appropriate time for leaving behind emotional issues that have been annoying you or undermining your personal comfort. It’s time to start fresh. There can be some challenges meeting the expectations or demands of others today, but you are in a good position to make adjustments that get you to a better balance. A Jupiter-Pluto connection enriches your relationships with more meaning and understanding. Relationships can prosper and grow, and mutually beneficial partnerships may be formed.

The Spell Crafter’s Compendium
Terri Paajanen

Saturday Is Ruled By Saturn

This day of the week got it’s name from the god of karma and time, Saturn. This day is obviously associated with the planet Saturn and is our last day of the week. Traditionally Saturdays are great days for protection, banishing a negative situation, and generally a good time to clean up any magical messes that you have been ignoring. Some suggestions for Saturday enchantments would include:

Wearing the colors of the day, black and deep purple. Here’s your perfect excuse to be dramatic and witchy. Empower these dramatic pieces of your wardrobe for protection and strength.

Burning black candles to absorb negativity and burning purple ones to increase your magical wisdom and boost your spirituality

Adding a touch of garden witchery to your Saturday spells by working with the pansy (in black or purple of course), the morning glory flowering vine, or the cypress tree.

Carrying an obsidian, hematite, or jet tumbled stone in your pocket to reinforce your personal protection and to ward off bad vibes and sour feelings. You can also add these crystals to a candle spell on a Saturday night to really increase the punch of your spellcasting.

Cleaning your house and cleansing it while you are at it. Tap into those obstacle-removing vibes and the positive, concluding energies.

Closing up the final day of the bewitching week with a bang by calling on Hecate for protection and guidance.

The Witches Correspondences for Saturday, June 25th

It is also a good time to being efforts that deal with the elderly, death, or the eradication of pests and disease.
