If you were thinking that the end of October and the beginning of November would be equivalent to a joyful walk in the park, think again. Today’s assortment of celestial seasonings are just an appetizer that leads to a full-course sampling of cosmic fireworks that will continue all week — building to a dramatic Uranus-Pluto square-off on Friday November 1 and a Solar Eclipse on Sunday November 3. Right now you need to pay attention to a Venus-Vesta square (1:15AM) followed six hours later by an off-kilter, 150-degree tie between Mars and Juno (7:17AM). Psychic storm warnings are posted on the investment and partnership fronts. Use words to heal and comfort — not disparage and harm. Coming to your rescue are a supportive, 60-degree tie between Chiron and Pluto (3:57AM) while the Moon in Leo trines Venus in Sagittarius (5:27AM). These two favorable sky patterns help to neutralize some of the discordant vibrations of the Venus-Vesta square and Mars-Juno at loggerheads. However, the Moon-Venus positive aspect (5:27AM) begins a long void lunar cycle that lasts until 8:46PM tonight when the Moon enters Virgo. During the void uncertainty zone, the Moon makes its monthly union with Pallas (10:11AM) — pointing you in the direction of solving problems and thinking more along strategic lines. Once the Moon enters Virgo, turn your attention to health concerns, eliminating non-essentials and clean-up efforts. Be careful regarding love bonds as Venus makes a frictional, 45-degree tie with Juno (10:24PM). [Note to readers: All times are calculated for Pacific Daylight Time.

Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio: Seeing in the Dark (Oct. 21st)
Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio: Seeing in the Dark
Dig deep to find new understanding and insight during this cycle…
Maria DeSimone on the topics of scorpio, mercury retrograde, blogs, astrology
Although I’m one of those astrologers who feels we talk about Mercury Retrograde excessively, I must admit: this particular retrograde cycle has me mesmerized. I feel as if we’re on the edge of glorious potential if we can channel it the right way. Thanks to this Mercury Retrograde phase we all have an opportunity to understand something about our lives with razor sharp perception that is shrouded in obscurity.
Allow me to explain…
The principle of communication and thought is governed by Mercury. When direct, these matters are strong and free to express themselves. When retrograde however, Mercury must slow down and internalize thoughts and ideas more before expressing them – or else risk jumbling his words up in a frustrating mess.
In Scorpio we have an interesting complexity. Scorpio favors depths and reaches into the pit of what makes you (and I) most uncomfortable, forcing us to look at it … and heal from it. But now Mercury (communication) will be retrograde in Scorpio (intensity and the dark side). This presents an unusual opportunity in my opinion. Now, we must all slow down and review whatever it is that we keep a secret. What are we hiding from our own consciousness? What are we afraid to admit to ourselves? This Mercury retrograde phase promises to ferret it out of us and deliver a chance to reconcile with darkness in our lives that we either truly don’t see or have tried desperately to sweep under the rug.
Time to clean up
Scorpio loves exposing our dirty messes. Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio will force you to think about it … to see it. To have a conversation with your darkness.
This is quite a karmic retrograde. Saturn is in Scorpio and Mercury will pass over the degree of Saturn on October 29 allowing us to make a revision in our minds as to how we want to handle this “dark matter.” If you make the right decision for your personal growth then guess what? There is a new beginning in store. On November 3 — while Mercury is still retrograde — we’ll have a Solar Eclipse in Scorpio. In addition, at the time of the eclipse Mercury Retrograde will be conjunct the North Node — a point in Astrology that speaks of life direction and where you are meant to lean towards in order to get there. Karmically, the universe is screaming at us to open wide and swallow the nasty medicine that will give us a new perspective. The nasty medicine is the uglier part of your life … the part that you might take great pains to hide from others. From yourself. Once you call yourself out on it something powerful will happen. You will be unrestricted from the grip that this darkness holds over you in your life. You’ll really feel this freedom after Mercury turns direct on November 10. Trust me.
If the Astrology coming up with Mercury Retrograde connected to Saturn, the North Node and a potent Solar Eclipse in Scorpio doesn’t tell you there is an opportunity to begin anew and see the light once you take a life review of your darkness then I don’t know what will.
Taking a stand
Imagine yourself a child, trying to go to sleep. It’s dark and you are alone … afraid. Is the boogeyman with you? Is there a monster in your closet? You tremble in your bed with your eyes shut tight, clutching your blanket over your head. You are sweating, panicked. You can’t escape this fear.
Then, in an act of bravado you pull the blanket away from your eyes and open them wide, staring fiercely into the darkness (Mercury retrograde in Scorpio!). Everything is quiet. And then slowly, you look around. You realize something. The darkness isn’t such a bad place after all. It provides a discreet yet penetrating glimpse into your soul.
Besides, it’s the only way you’ll ever see the light of day.
Fall Love Horoscopes 2013
Fall Love Horoscopes 2013
As the temperature drops, your love life could heat up…
Maria DeSimone on the topics of mars, venus, horoscopes, love, fall equinoxNow that it’s Autumn, you’re probably craving long, cozy walks with your sweetheart. Preferably in the early evening — just when it gets cool enough for the two of you to have another excuse to snuggle in tight. Whether you’re flying solo and dreaming of romance or, if you’ve already got your hands full with someone you love, this Fall there’s certainly enough astrology happening to offer something for everyone. Between eclipse season, another Mercury Retrograde and a fascinating trend with the love planet Venus starting in November, you simply must be “in the know” about what the stars have in store for you … and your heart this fall! Read on to learn how hot your fall is really going to get!
Aries (March 21 – April 19)
This fall, you will certainly have a focus on partnership. It all begins on October 18 when a Lunar Eclipse falls in your sign offering you significant emotional fulfillment, or illumination about a personal relationship. You might feel as if you’ve found your spiritual equal if you’re newly dating someone thanks to a gorgeous trine between Venus in Sagittarius to Uranus in Aries just a couple days earlier on October 16. By December 7, your ruling planet, Mars, will enter your 7th House of Partnership for an unusual, extended visit. In fact, once we get to 2014, he’ll turn retrograde and then your relationship rehab will begin in earnest! During the last days of fall however, you and your mate might find that you’re quarreling more than usual. Ask yourself if you’re stirring up the pot just to keep things interesting or if there’s really a deeper issue at hand. Be honest with yourself.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
You are about to enter one of the most glorious, pleasurable cycles possible for love and sex, Taurus. Are you ready? Mars, the planet that rules your libido, will enter your 5th House of Romance and Play on October 15 where he’ll remain until December 7. This once-in-two-year-cycle will offer you an opportunity to frolic around — or fool around — with someone special. Enjoy more date nights and entertainment — you deserve it! A notable Solar Eclipse will fall in your 7th House of Partnership on November 3 and for those of you attached Taureans who feel stuck in a stale relationship, there might be an opportunity for a new start.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
This time around, Mercury Retrograde will only affect your love life if you’re wrapped up in a tricky office romance. From October 21 to November 10 Mercury will backtrack through your 6th House of Work and yes, miscommunication is possible in this area of your life. This might be a good time to keep work and play separate — at least temporarily. Thankfully, love potential will be quite exciting this Fall for you! On October 7 until November 5 Venus will tour your 7th House of Partnership and any Gemini’s who are already attached will enjoy an extra harmonious time (even with Mercury Retrograde)! Then, on December 7, sexy Mars will slide into your 7th House of True Love offering a stimulating (and extra-long) cycle when it comes to dating and having fun in the bedroom!
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
You’re floating on cloud nine these days, Cancer. In fact, you may feel as if you’ve got the world by its tail thanks to lucky Jupiter touring your sign. Blessings are likely to extend to your love life, especially as we get to the gorgeous Solar Eclipse on November 3. This eclipse will light up your 5th House of Expression and help breathe new life into your romantic happenings. Saturn is also in this part of your chart, but will enjoy the support of Jupiter in your sign as well as the eclipse energy to help bring stable, enduring love potential your way. In fact, Venus will enter your 7th House of Committed Partnerships on November 5 for an unusually long stay that will last until March of 2014! You can certainly count on revisions in the love department (most likely with a happy ending). With Mercury also retrograde in your 5th House of True Love from October 21 to November 10 it’s possible that this new love energy will arrive from an old flame who wants to start over. Be open to the possibilities.
Leo (July. 23 – Aug. 22)
You’ll kick things off with such heat this fall you might not want to believe the season is actually changing! Mars, the planet of assertive drive — including your sex drive — will be in your sign until October 15, allowing you to work your “sexy” factor. You’ll notice plenty of courage and stamina to pursue anyone who’s made your heart skip a beat. Love gets even better between October 7 and November 5 as Venus enters your 5th House of Love and Play. Expect romantic prospects at every turn. If, by some chance you’re still single, a gorgeous New Moon in your 5th house on December 2 should put an end to lonely nights once and for all.
Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)
Fall will definitely be your season for love! Whether you’re single or attached, romantic prospects will surely intensify. The headline news is that Venus will enter Capricorn and your 5th House of True Love on November 5 and will not leave this area of your chart until March 6, 2014! Why the unusually long visit? Venus will turn retrograde leading to a very special focus on matters of the heart for you. The retrograde won’t actually happen until the Winter Solstice, but during the fall you’ll want to pay close attention to developments in your love life. It will be the situations that happen in this fall that you’ll be revising your approach to come winter. On November 7 you and someone you’re casually dating may decide to take your relationship to the next level. On November 15 Venus will cozy up to Pluto and you can surely anticipate a fated love connection if single. If attached, sparks will FLY with you and your mate!
Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)
A telling Lunar Eclipse on October 18 will illuminate the status of a close personal relationship. The truth is that you and your partner might no longer be on the same wavelength in many areas and have already spent time and energy trying to reconcile these differences. At eclipse time you’ll know whether or not your efforts have been in vain. Relief is possible however if communication lines are clear. This is due to a helpful trine between Venus in your 3rd House of Communication to Uranus, now in your 7th House of Partnerships. A mutual agreement about changing the paradigm of your relationship to one that’s less traditional might be exactly what you need to salvage it. The Full Moon in Taurus on November 17 will illuminate your 8th House of Intimacy. Will the events that transpire this fall lead you to build a wall even higher than before or will they allow you to trust and reveal yourself completely? Only you can decide.
Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)
This fall you can expect an “all or nothing” approach to love. Venus will be in your sign until October 7 prompting you to have a mesmerizing effect on anyone you want to attract your way. Mercury will turn retrograde in Scorpio however and from October 21 to November 10 you might stumble on your words more than usual. This could prove to be tricky if you hope to have an important conversation with someone special. If a significant decision or vital dialogue must happen between the two of you try to time it as close as possible to November 7 when you’ll have the support of Venus in your 3rd House of Communication at a friendly sextile to Neptune in your 5th House of Love and Play. Even if Mercury is retrograde at least on this day, your lover will be more forgiving of any communication mishaps. The main event however, will be a Solar Eclipse in your sign on November 3. If you’re ready to take a relationship to the next level you’ll push ahead with unstoppable force.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)
Matters of the heart will become a strong focus for you this fall once we enter eclipse season. On October 18 a Lunar Eclipse in Aries will light up your 5th House of True Love. A casual (possibly torrid) affair may end during this time — particularly if things have been rocky. Alternatively, if you’re dating someone new and your feelings are growing stronger by the day, this eclipse might prompt you to make an emotionally open declaration of love. Venus will help you since she’ll grace your sign from October 7 — November 5. During this time you’ll look more beautiful than ever and will enjoy astounding confidence. This can’t help but translate into greater powers of attraction. Lucky you: you’re sexy and you know it!
Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)
Your love life might seem quiet as we begin the fall season but don’t be fooled — there’s plenty of activity in store. It all begins on November 5 when Venus enters Capricorn. Typically this is a cycle where you’ll enjoy greater powers of attraction and will also look and feel more beautiful. The fascinating difference between this year’s visit of Venus to Capricorn however is that Venus will turn retrograde (on December 21) and will not leave Capricorn until March 6, 2014! This Fall you must take careful notes about what transpires for you in matters of the heart as well as your overall concept of love. While everything might seem extra special now, you’ll need to practically re-assess where you are in terms of love come winter. There are gorgeous indications this fall however, that you’ll be in a happy place when it comes to romance. On November 7 Venus will be at a gorgeous angle to Neptune helping you open up to a spiritual connection with your mate. Then, on November 15 Venus will be conjunct Pluto making it clear that when it comes to love, you’ll settle for nothing less than absolute intensity! The Full Moon in Taurus on November 17 will lead to an emotional climax between you and someone special.
Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)
You might start off on a rough patch this fall when it comes to partnership. If you’re in a committed relationship, you’ll feel this most. Mars, the planet of action but also strife, will continue to move through your 7th House of Partnerships until October 15. After this date you’ll notice fewer arguments between you and your mate but until then, expect plenty of heat. Mercury will move retrograde from October 21 until November 10 and since Mercury rules your 5th house of Romance it’s possible that you’ll experience a few miscommunications during this time. Since Mercury will retrograde through your 10th House of Reputation, be careful about being the subject of salacious gossip. On December 17 a Full Moon in your 5th house will bring an emotionally charged situation between you and your lover to light. For better or worse, expect a turning point.
Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20)
If you’re single and looking for love, or, if you’re dating someone new, expect the fall to be filled with romantic potential. Jupiter, the planet of expansion and abundance, will continue to move through your 5th House of True Love — a once in twelve year event! With a transit like this you might very well find the love of your life! When Venus trines Jupiter on September 26 you’ll have an even sweeter opportunity for love. If you’re already attached, Mars will enter your 7th House of Partnerships on October 15 and will remain here until December 7. There might be more arguments than usual, or you might decide to speak up for yourself with a greater amount of aggression. The funny thing is that on October 19 when Mars opposes Neptune you and your mate might scratch your foreheads in confusion, wondering what the heck it really is that you’re fighting about after all. Don’t sweat the small stuff.
Astrology Insights for December 2012
Astrology Insights for December 2012
Maria DeSimone on the topics of blogs, astrology
I don’t know about you, but my world ended on October 29. The Mayans were only a couple of months off. OK, so I’m obviously being sarcastic (and no, the world really isn’t going to end). But seriously, for so many of us on the East Coast, Hurricane Sandy might as well have been named Hurricane Mayan.
All I have to say about November 2012 is good riddance. I am so happy November is behind us, I feel like celebrating New Year’s Eve a month early. If your world turned upside down in November — with the difficult Solar Eclipse sandwiched in between an especially biting Mercury Retrograde — then take heart: December will be better.
December brings unexpected fulfillment — or loss
On November 28, a Lunar Eclipse in Gemini makes close contact to Jupiter. I’d like to ignore all the fancier aspects this Eclipse made in the sky (inconjunct, yod, blah, blah, blah) and just keep it simple. But I can’t. There’s just too much of a story here. The Eclipse is conjunct Jupiter and sextile Uranus. Unexpected emotional fulfillment … or perhaps ending.
Now, let’s get complicated and start talking about the famous yod around this eclipse. A “yod” is a rare astrological aspect that forms between three or more points where two planets are sextile, and both are quincunx to a third planet. In this case, the Moon makes an inconjunct aspect to Mars-Pluto in Capricorn and Venus-Saturn in Scorpio, while Mars-Pluto and Venus-Saturn are sextile. With a yod pattern, you can say there’s a strong fated quality to whatever happens emotionally around this eclipse promise.
For many of us, this eclipse has a fated, karmic suggestion of adjustments and completion when it comes to love. Especially powerful, fatal attraction love affairs or those extra complicated relationships. If you have planets around 7 degrees of just about any sign, you are somehow inextricably tied to this eclipse. You will feel its emotional pull. I say this because of the incredible relationship that all of the love planets (Venus, Mars) have to this lunation.
But for others, like me, it might have more to do with family and safety issues.
A light at the end of the tunnel
Whatever the case, we’ll spend the first half of December adjusting to the emotional implications of late November’s eclipse. Then, on December 11, I see a light at the end of the tunnel that began for so many on October 29. This is because on December 11 we’ll have the final Mercury square Neptune aspect that occurred for the first time on October 29, right before Mercury went retrograde. The confusing communication and lack of cooperation you might have experienced post-Sandy, such as dealing with paperwork issues, FEMA, insurance problems and anything else, will now be resolved.
Life gets better by December 13, when we pass Mercury’s shadow phase and enjoy a gorgeous New Moon in Sagittarius to boot. This New Moon is when I know the fresh start will be in full swing for all of us, whether you’ve been dealing with hurricane fallout or other personal drama.
For two weeks after this we’ll feel energized, happy and one with the universe again.
On December 28, an emotionally charged Full Moon in Cancer might bring some tension with family, but remember to keep it all in perspective. After all, it’s not like the world is going to end. You’ve got this.
Daily Cosmic Calendar for November 15th
If you think that Tuesday’s Total Solar Eclipse and Wednesday’s shift by Chiron are ancient history, think again. As indicated on prior dates in this calendar, major celestial alignments and events from the day before or two days before are still percolating in the psychic atmosphere — influencing mega-millions of human beings around the globe. Fortunately, the lunar orb in Sagittarius carries a note of positive thinking, opportunity knocking, and essential optimism. This is certainly reinforced during the monthly Moon-Juno union (7:33AM PST). Energize primary partnerships in a respectful, balanced and harmonious manner. Be more fashion-conscious and check out the latest clothing designs and hair styles. Love vibrations increase in frequency when the Moon forms a supportive, 60-degree tie with Venus (2:30PM PST). However, tensions start to rise shortly after this sky pattern occurs as Venus forms an off-kilter, 150-degree link with Pallas (3:54PM PST), Saturn makes a similar, 150-degree liaison with Uranus (4:28PM PST) while Mercury parallels Pluto (6:44PM PST). Ouch! These three challenging alignments — happening within three hours — can easily cast a pall over the rest of the day and send you to a corner of the school room with a dunce cap on your head. Don’t go on an egocentric tear or push your agenda at all cost. The past (Saturn) and future (Uranus) are clashing, and problem-solving is more difficult than usual. Strive for greater objectivity, peace of mind and serenity to get through this 24-hour time-period relatively unscathed.
Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, November 13
Sudden shifts in emotional loyalties are possible now as the intense Scorpio Solar Eclipse at 5:08 pm EST brings a new perspective to our passions. This powerful New Moon forms stressful aspects with transformational Uranus and Pluto, raising the ante for personal change. Meanwhile, logical Mercury squares irrational Neptune, pitting our words against our dreams. Events move quickly today, but a little bit of common sense takes us a long way.
Aries Horoscope
(Mar 21 – Apr 19)
Although today’s Scorpio New Moon Eclipse stimulates your 8th House of Intimacy, it’s still difficult to speak your desires aloud. However, what you don’t say may have more impact now than what is actually said. If your feelings seem isolated from your conversations, make a conscious choice to include them in your story. Take a chance by telling a loved one what you really need.
Taurus Horoscope
(Apr 20 – May 20)
You want to keep things simple now, but your most important relationships may be growing beyond your control. Your interactions have hidden layers of complexity as the magnetic Scorpio Solar Eclipse activates your 7th House of Partners. You might be willing to put up with temporary complications if you can see your way through a current entanglement. Just keep your future destination in mind because maintaining the status quo isn’t good for anyone involved.
Gemini Horoscope
(May 21 – Jun 20)
It’s not too late to make a simple improvement to your daily routine, even if it’s one you should have made much sooner. Today’s Scorpio Solar Eclipse falls in your 6th House of Habits, indicating sudden changes that can set a series of profound consequences into motion. The potential is greater than you realize, so make your actions count as much as possible.
Cancer Horoscope
(Jun 21 – Jul 22)
Don’t get discouraged today, even if it feels like everything has come to a standstill. Whether you know it or not, you are on the edge of a big breakthrough; however, you will have to take initiative to make it happen. The Scorpio Solar Eclipse polarizes your 5th House of Love and Creativity, suggesting that something exciting is about to open up on the romantic front. Even if you are eager with anticipation, remember that nothing happens overnight.
Leo Horoscope
(Jul 23 – Aug 22)
Your emotions may be at odds with your actions today, adding tension to your most personal relationships. Your tendency now is to withhold deep feelings while you smile and just do whatever is necessary to keep the peace. However, the Scorpio Solar Eclipse rattles your 4th House of Security, making this a tough time if you don’t acknowledge your current desires. Protecting your heart seems like a good idea, but you might regret it later on.
Virgo Horoscope
(Aug 23 – Sep 22)
You have been planning long enough; it’s now time to start talking about your ideas with others. The Scorpio New Moon Eclipse activates your 3rd House of Communication, so get your best thoughts out into the open because they don’t do any good running around inside your head. There may not be a better time to initiate passionate discussions about what you want to do next in your life, so seize the moment before it passes.
Libra Horoscope
(Sep 23 – Oct 22)
You can’t share everything that’s important to you without upsetting the stability of your life now that the Scorpio Solar Eclipse is shaking your 2nd House of Self-Esteem. Unfortunately, keeping crucial information to yourself creates a ripple effect, and the subtle disturbances can easily build into destructive waves. Once you better understand your own core values you’ll know exactly what you want to say.
Scorpio Horoscope
(Oct 23 – Nov 21)
This New Moon Eclipse in your sign symbolizes the initiation process you may now experience. With buoyant Jupiter in the picture, you could be feeling upbeat about the life-changing possibilities that are before you. But you cannot let go of the shadows on a whim, so analyze what you are holding on to and why you’re still resistant to change. After you understand the source of your motivation, the next steps become even easier to take.
Sagittarius Horoscope
(Nov 22 – Dec 21)
The Scorpio New Moon Eclipse in your 12th House of Spirituality may keep you somewhat detached from emotional involvements because you recognize that your boundaries aren’t strong now. You might be more vulnerable than usual and feel the need to protect yourself from others. Go ahead and retreat to do the deep soul searching that is required. Don’t judge yourself harshly if you aren’t ready to share your feelings with anyone else yet. Trust that you will know when the time is right.
Capricorn Horoscope
(Dec 22 – Jan 19)
Focus your attention back on the outer world now that the Scorpio New Moon Eclipse activates your 11th House of Social Networking. Don’t be too sentimental; just engage others as necessary, for you know what moves to make and you can predict the response you’ll receive. All the while, keep your eyes on the prize. More than anything else, single-minded concentration can get you what you want today.
Aquarius Horoscope
(Jan 20 – Feb 18)
The Scorpio Solar Eclipse lands in your 10th House of Career, motivating you to concentrate on your professional role now. Your natural ability to contain your emotions contributes to your air of mystery and increases your magnetic charm. You can even have someone eating out of your hand without much effort. Just tell others what you want to do and watch them line up to be on your team.
Pisces Horoscope
(Feb 19 – Mar 20)
It’s time to apply your special brand of logic to draw a personal life map now that the Solar Eclipse is rattling your 9th House of Big Adventure. Start by visualizing whatever you want to do over the upcoming months. Then create a calendar and write down the critical milestones that you wish to accomplish. Use this personalized tool to stay on track as you move toward fulfilling your most vital dreams.
Working by the Sun
Working by the Sun
As the alter ego of the moon, the sun offers a significant source of energy for natural magick, and solar energies often offer power for more instant magickal results.
Dawn is best for new opportunities, beginnings and people entering your life; noon for a burst of instant power, energy, success and prosperity. Dusk is for reconciliation or letting go. Midnight assists healing magick, psychic protection and in accepting what cannot be changed.
You can combine lunar and solar energies for a quick solar fix and the slower continuous lunar consolidation of the initial solar results in your life. Noon spells on the day of the full moon will get things off the starting block and keep up the impetus through the month. Often the moon and sun are in the sky at the same time (check your moon diary or weather section of the newspaper, or just look) and combine the energies accordingly.
Elder’s Meditation of the Day June 12
“Behold, my bothers, the spring has come; the earth has received the embraces of the sun and we shall soon see the results of that love!”
–Sitting Bull, SIOUX
Spring is the season of love. Spring is the season of new life, new relationships. It is the springtime that really reacts to the new position of Father Sun. New life forms all over the planet. Life is abundant. New cycles are created. Mother Earth changes colors, the flowers are abundant. It is the time for humans to observe nature and let nature create within us the feeling of Spring. We should let ourselves renew. We should let go of the feeling of Winter. We should be joyful and energetic.
My Maker, let me, today, feel the feelings of Spring.
Weekend Lunar Love Horoscope for June 8 – 10
by Jeff Jawer
From Head to Heart
June 8 – 10
There’s a journey from head to heart this weekend, starting on Friday with the brainy Aquarius Moon providing the distance needed to see beyond emotions to gain a more objective picture of relationships. Happily, an imaginative little Mercury-Neptune trine adds creativity to communication and spurs romantic dreams.
There’s a shift in the lunar winds with the Moon’s entry into supersensitive Pisces on Saturday afternoon. This emotionally enveloping sign is most comfortable in the realms of dreams, intuition and spirituality. The Moon’s conjunction with surreal Neptune makes the night perfect for indulging fantasies. Escaping reality may limit good judgment and common sense, but who cares about practicalities when we’re dancing with abandon and loving without limits. However, skin is thinner than usual now, increasing vulnerability and, for some, uncertainty. But this is not the time to worry about tomorrow or even the realities of the moment. Compassion, connection and communion are more important now than whatever the future might bring.
Sunday continues this sweet trend of flowing with feelings. It doesn’t matter who we’re with or what we do as long as we are kind and forgiving. There are no scores to settle or any serious issues to address at this time. Tenderly accompanying someone in his or her moment of need dissolves boundaries and invites intimacy without expectation. There’s no finer gift than the one we receive when we open our hearts to others.
Your Daily General Horoscopes for June 6th
Aries
In a very rare cosmic event, not to be witnessed again in our lifetime Venus, planet of love moves across the face of the Sun today, in a rare Venus eclipse. This is a real eclipse of the heart and with Venus in retrograde motion and the Sun in direct motion, they come together in a way that not only puts the past and future into context, but gives both a voice. Today what you see and what you feel are one in the same.
Taurus
If the Moon’s position in your financial sector over the last few days and the lunar eclipse that came from this created some financial pressures, tensions and wake up calls, then today you’re likely to see the benefits. For no longer asleep at the wheel you’re able to seize the opportunities presented by a rare Venus eclipse in your income sector and the laws of attraction this evokes.
Gemini
It was almost 8 years ago to the day that you experienced a rare Venus eclipse in your sign and today there is a repeat, with Venus moving across the face of the Sun, for the last time in our lifetime. As this happens all Venus’ desires and the Sun’s reality checks come together, with a blindingly clear sense of what you really want and of where your heart really stands. With this comes a clear sense of where you’ve been and where you’re going.
Cancer
Expect your focus to turn inwards today, with a need to factor in plenty of down time where you can pay attention to a sense of awareness developing from within. You’re in the closing phase of your current solar year and Venus cycle and with both in a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart they cross paths today, literally. As Venus crosses the face of the Sun, in a rare Venus eclipse, expect the light to shine on your inner psyche.
Leo
Having the Sun and Venus align in a social and serendipitous part of your chart is not uncommon, having last happened in 2008, but what makes today’s alignment so special is that Venus will move across the face of the Sun, forming a rare Venus eclipse. This brings the laws of attraction and synchronicity together in a powerful way but also in a very transparent way, allowing you to recognise when it’s in effect and how to seize the moment.
Virgo
Just 2 days ago the Sun was under direct pressure from a lunar eclipse in your home and family sector, but he’s not only coming out from behind the Moon’s shadow but coming back into his own and receiving some stunning support today. It’s the Sun and Venus’ alignment in your career sector that creates a very rare and stunning Venus eclipse, with your professional desires and reality coming together in an illuminating way.
Libra
With Neptune now in retrograde motion in your work sector and new doors not yet open on the career front, you have a chance to buy into a special sense of adventure in the air today. All of a sudden you’re waking up to things in life that are free and to the experiences that are now possible. It’s a Venus eclipse, with the planet of desire crossing directly in front of the Sun in an adventurous part of your chart, that reveals life’s options in all their glory.
Scorpio
A rare Venus eclipse in your financial sector today brings Venus’ financial desires and the Sun’s financial realities together, giving you a clear sense of what you want and where things stand, as well as a clear sense of where you’ve been and where you’re going. With Venus in retrograde and the Sun in direct motion, this creates a sense of revelation in all directions. Regardless of your financial reality you can’t change what you can’t see and today you have 20/20 fiscal vision.
Sagittarius
This is a powerful day on the relationship front and a chance to balance things out after the lunar eclipse in your sign 2 days ago created some financial pressure. Today the Sun and Venus not only align in your relationship sector but form a rare Venus eclipse, with the planet of love crossing the face of the Sun and in the process bringing together a clear sense of what you want and of where things stand, with the potential to create a real turning point.
Capricorn
Just 6 days before Jupiter, planet of luck and expansion is due to return to your work sector, kicking off a lucky and expansive year on the work front, the Sun and Venus align here today to form a rare Venus eclipse. As Venus crosses the face of the Sun their energies unite, giving you a very clear sense of what you want and where things stand, as well as a clear sense of where you’ve been and where you’re going.
Aquarius
The last time that Venus, planet of love aligned with the Sun in a romantic and creative part of your chart was in 2008, but today they go one better, aligning to form a rare Venus eclipse, creating the ultimate eclipse of the heart. With Venus in retrograde motion and the Sun in direct motion, this not only brings your heart’s desires and a sense of awareness together, but the elements of hindsight and foresight.
Pisces
It was just 2 days ago that a lunar eclipse in your career sector put direct pressure on the Sun in your home and family sector, bringing any home/life balance issues to a head. Today the tide turns completely, with an alignment between the Sun and Venus creating some very special conditions on the home and family front. As the Sun’s reality checks and Venus’ desires come together, this gives you a clear sense of what you want, where things stand and how to bridge the gap between the two.
Your Weekly General Horoscopes for June 4
Aries
A pair of eclipses will add a lot of intensity to the week, especially as they fall on opposite sides of the sky and therefore in opposition. The week begins with Monday’s lunar eclipse in an adventurous part of your chart, which is likely to evoke a sense of wanderlust and a severe case of Mondayitis, as well as challenging your excuses. However, it’s the much rarer Venus eclipse on Wednesday that brings heart and reality together, in an area of your chart where you’re most able to find your voice. It is words or ideas that you’ve been suppressing that will suddenly find their time. In all matters it’s communication that dominates this week, leading the way into a new era of connecting. Eclipse energy might stir things up and get the ball rolling, but it’s up to you to run with this.
Taurus
With a lunar eclipse in your financial sector on Monday and a much rarer Venus eclipse in your income sector on Wednesday will see money matters dominate. Monday’s lunar eclipse is likely to bring things on both the income and financial fronts to a head, while Wednesday’s Venus eclipse is likely to act as a trigger or a catalyst, just 6 days before lucky Jupiter is due to reach your income sector. Yet while money matters are likely to dominate this is not the only show in town, with Jupiter’s last week in your sign all about taking ownership of the future and making sure that in all aspects of your life that you’re on the path you want to continue on. With the door open to second chances on the income and work fronts and your romantic and creative passions returning, anything is possible.
Gemini
At some point during your birthday month you’ll be confronted by a Full Moon that challenges your intentions for your new solar year and provides the wakeup call that makes sure you’re not asleep at the wheel, moving into your new solar year on autopilot. That Full Moon falls on Monday, except instead of an ordinary Full Moon this is a lunar eclipse, with the messages it brings much louder and harder to ignore. This is just 2 days before Wednesday’s much rarer Venus eclipse, which sees Venus literally traverse across the Sun and the nearly 7 hours this will take your heart’s desires and your realities, as well as the past and future will all come together. With the Sun in direct and Venus in retrograde motion, all of a sudden you’re able to see where you’ve been and where you’re going.
Cancer
Just as your professional year should be slowing down, things heat up again with a lunar eclipse in your work sector on Monday. With the Moon not even returning to your work sector until the day of the eclipse, this might catch you off guard, with a need to move into the new week with an open mind, especially when it comes to work matters. The Moon will remain in your work sector until Wednesday, giving you time to work with whatever Monday’s eclipse triggers. It’s on Thursday that Mercury’s return to your sign brings the first direct planetary support you’ve had since September 2011, as well as bringing you to your smartest and most intellectually savvy point in the year. This gives you a chance to break through the nostalgia and reflective web that you’ve been enveloped in.
Leo
There is something magical in the air this week and it comes just as Jupiter is spending his last week in your career sector and when you most need to remain plugged in professionally. Yet a pair of eclipses, one in your romantic sector and the other in a social and serendipitous part of your chart won’t let you get away with life becoming all work and no play. A week of intense eclipse energy kicks off with a lunar eclipse in your romantic sector on Monday, bringing things on the personal, romantic and creative fronts to a head or to a turning or tipping point. It’s during Wednesday’s much rarer Venus eclipse that the laws of attraction and synchronicity come together, as well as the past, future and present. During both eclipses there’s a need to take your hands off the wheel.
Virgo
The week is being dominated by a pair of eclipses, something incredibly rare as a lunar and solar eclipse will always fall 2 weeks apart. You’ll get two this week because while Monday’s eclipse is a lunar eclipse, Wednesday’s eclipse is a much rarer Venus eclipse. Falling on opposite sides of the sky and with opposite agendas, this may create some complications and some work/life balance pressure. For while Monday’s lunar eclipse falls in your home and family sector, Wednesday’s Venus eclipse falls in your career sector and it puts forces on both fronts into conflict. Yet with Jupiter returning to your career sector next week finding that balance is a must, for while your professional star is on the rise, it doesn’t require the sacrifices or the all or nothing approach of the past.
Libra
Your week kicks off with a lunar eclipse in your communication sector, taking what an ordinary Full Moon will do in terms of giving you a chance to clear the air and express yourself, to a whole new level. This comes just 2 days before Wednesday’s much rarer Venus eclipse with Venus, planet of desire and your ruling planet moving across the face of the Sun, in your sector of travel, adventure, learning and discovery. This will put all your desires and realities on the same page, just 6 days before Jupiter, planet of luck is due to return to kick off your most adventurous and expansive 12 months in over a decade. Life is waking you up to what you’ve been missing out on and how bold, rich and colourful it can be. All of a sudden simply going through the motions is no longer enough.
Scorpio
Having two eclipses in one week is something unheard of, for a lunar and solar eclipse can’t fall any more nor less than 2 weeks apart and even more so when these two eclipses fall in your 2 money houses. This is putting a lot of focus on your money game this week and with so much eclipse energy, is likely to bring things to a turning or tipping point. The week begins with a lunar eclipse in your income sector, which has the power to trigger anything building or pending and can often unblock and get things moving. It’s Wednesday’s much rarer Venus eclipse in your financial sector that brings things to a major tipping point, just 6 days before Jupiter’s return kicks off your luckiest and most expansive financial year in over a decade. At the same time this is a pivotal relationship week.
Sagittarius
The halfway point of your solar year is always marked by a Full Moon in your sign, which puts the Sun on the opposite side of the sky and at the halfway point from your last solar return and your next. With the Sun and Moon in opposition this brings the wake up calls required to ensure that you’re on track and a reminder of the intentions you moved into this current solar year with. That Full Moon falls on Monday, but goes one step further to form the first lunar eclipse in 2012, with the wake up calls much louder and clearer. They have to be, for they’re not only competing with a lot of relationship focus, but a much rarer Venus eclipse in your relationship sector on Wednesday. With lucky Jupiter reaching your relationship sector next week, things reach an early tipping point.
Capricorn
The 2 eclipses likely to dominate things this week are not only on opposite sides of the sky but on opposite sides of the spectrum, in terms of the influence. The week begins with Monday’s lunar eclipse in an intuitive, reflective and internally focused area of your chart, taking the Full Moon that will always fall here during the Sun’s month long visit to your work sector to a whole new level. This is a lunar eclipse that asks you to pull back, to question a lot of your beliefs and to stop what you’re doing, step back and take time to hear yourself think. This is in complete contrast to Wednesday’s much rarer Venus eclipse, which falls in your work sector. This will bring a new level of clarity on the work front, giving you a new sense of where you’ve been and where you’re going.
Aquarius
You are experiencing the ultimate of ironies this week. After no planetary activity in either of your professional houses since last November, Mercury’s return to your work sector on Thursday will kick off the first professional planetary activity in 2012. However this comes in a week where a pair of very magical eclipses will draw your attention and focus to anything but your job. The week kicks off with a lunar eclipse in a social and serendipitous part of your chart and while a lunar eclipse will always bring the element of fate into play, this one will also unleash the laws of synchronicity. Wednesday’s much rarer Venus eclipse falls in your romantic and creative sector, just 6 days before Jupiter kicks off your luckiest year for love and for all things heart related.
Pisces
Experiencing 2 eclipses in one week is not something that you’ll see every day if at all, yet that’s what you have and it’s the fact that they fall on opposite sides of the sky that will keep you on your toes. The week kicks off with a lunar eclipse in your career sector, bringing forces or matters that have been building behind the scenes to a head or to a turning or tipping point. With Mercury returning to your work sector 3 weeks later, this will give your professional game a much needed shot in the arm. Yet just 2 days later a much rarer Venus eclipse will fall in your home and family sector, bringing the focus back to matters on the home front. Even Monday’s lunar eclipse will put direct pressure on the Sun here, bringing any work/life matters to a head, where they can be resolved.
Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, June 4
Aries
Today’s Full Moon is a lunar eclipse, with deep links to a force that has been trying to get to the surface for too long now and finally finds a crack in your resistance. It’s a sense of adventure that interlaced with today’s moonbeams will soak into your pores and into your very being, making it hard to hide behind your excuses. Whether it’s a sense of wanderlust or curiosity that has you in its grasp, dare to follow where it takes you.
Taurus
It was 2 weeks ago to the day that the Sun and Moon not only returned to your income sector but aligned to form a solar eclipse and now the tables have turned, with a lunar eclipse in your financial sector. This time, instead of the Sun and Moon aligned they’re in opposition, bringing forces on the income and financial fronts to a head and into conflict. As a super charged Full Moon, this has the power to bring financial matters to a tipping or turning point.
Gemini
Today’s lunar eclipse in your relationship sector is the last before the North Node leaves in August and therefore the last in a series of eclipses here to help point things in the right direction or put things on the right path. As a super charged Full Moon, with deep links to forces that have been building on the relationship front, behind the scenes, this is more the tip of an iceberg, giving you insight into what’s happening beneath the surface and behind the scenes.
Cancer
It was nearly 4 weeks ago that an active and defining 3 professional months ran their course, but the Moon’s return to your work sector today and the lunar eclipse this creates is throwing one final wildcard on the table. Until now there is likely to have been a sense that a piece of the puzzle was missing, but as it’s played today and things come to a head everything is now on the table. This could bring things on the work front to a tipping or turning point.
Leo
Just as you’re fighting to find the right balance between work and play today’s Full Moon is likely to influence which way the scales tilt, even if it is just temporarily. No ordinary Full Moon but instead a lunar eclipse in a romantic, playful and creative part of your chart, this will unleash strong and previously suppressed feelings, giving you a clear sense of what you want and need. This makes listening to your heart a must today.
Virgo
Just when you’re ready to fly professionally, today’s lunar eclipse in your home and family sector brings a reminder of the need for the right work/life balance. Just 2 weeks ago the Moon aligned with the Sun just after returning to your career sector, forming a solar eclipse that opened some major new doors. Now the Moon is directly challenging the Sun, making sure your home and professional lives are evenly balanced.
Libra
A Full Moon in your communication sector will always bring an interesting mix of intuition and logic, imagination and intelligence together in a smart, intellectually savvy and articulate part of your chart, creating just enough pressure to push through your excuses. Today’s Full Moon is a little stronger as it’s a lunar eclipse, creating a chance to clear the air and get unsaid words off your chest.
Scorpio
At a time when there is a lot of focus on your financial situation as a whole, the Moon’s return to your income sector and the lunar eclipse this creates brings a chance to put things into perspective. While this puts the Sun and Moon in opposition and may create some financial pressure, it’s also likely to create a breakthrough on the income front and provide some timely financial wake up calls. The money gods are making sure you’re not asleep at the wheel.
Sagittarius
The halfway point in every solar year is marked by a Full Moon in your relationship sector, which puts the Moon in your sign and the Sun on the other side of the sky and halfway through your 12 month solar year. That point is reached today, but for the second year in a row it’s not marked by a Full Moon, but by a lunar eclipse, bringing much louder and stronger wake up calls. No matter what buttons are being pushed, it’s because too much is on offer to remain on autopilot.
Capricorn
Today’s Full Moon is packing a little more punch than is usually the case, due to the fact that this is not only a lunar eclipse, but the second lunar eclipse in an intuitive part of your chart in as many years. This is a Full Moon that works from within, stirring up strong emotional and intuitive responses that can bring unexpected shifts in perception. As the truth dawns this may challenge previous perceptions, but a truth once heard can’t be ignored.
Aquarius
There is a powerful mix of fate and synchronicity in the air today as today’s Full Moon, a powerful Wishing Moon, morphs into a lunar eclipse. Falling in a social and serendipitous part of your chart, that rules your hopes and wishes, this lunar eclipse will provide an outlet or a trigger for forces that have been building behind the scenes. While the chances are high for some serendipitous moments or encounters today, they shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise.
Pisces
Just 3 weeks before new doors are due to open on the work front, the Moon not only returns to your career sector today but becomes first a Full Moon and then a lunar eclipse. This is likely to see everything that has been building on the career front since late last year and behind the scenes since then come to a head and as the last lunar eclipse here for several years, will bring things to a turning or tipping point.
Your Pet’s Weekly Horoscopes for June 4
Aries
If one eclipse can play havoc with my nerves, then 2 in one week is really going to drive me nuts, especially as they are sending conflicting signals. It’s when I feel a little out of control and I can’t understand what I’m feeling, that I gain a sense of security and safety from everything around me remaining the same. It’s routine and all things predictable that will save my sanity this week.
Taurus
Strong forces in the air this week are unlikely to rattle me, which is surprising as I’m usually quite prone to the effect that eclipses have on me. This time around this is going to infuse me with a new sense of confidence and see a desire for change fill me with a sense of entitlement. Expect me to turn into a bit of a diva this week, wanting my own way and very sure about what I do and don’t like.
Gemini
My birthday month reaches a critical point this week, where I’m being influenced by forces that make me feel threatened and by those that fill me with confidence and a clear sense of what I do and don’t like. One minute I seem fragile and in need of reassurance and the next I’ll be ready to take on the world. They don’t call me the sign of the Twins for nothing, with both sides of my personality coming out this week.
Cancer
Don’t be surprised if Monday’s lunar eclipse inspires a burst of activity from me, especially as until then you may be worried that I’m becoming a little too lazy and a little too fond of dozing and my all day naps. If you want to encourage me to move more and get active, then the early days of the week are the best, when you’re more likely to catch me in the right frame of mind. By mid week I’ll be wondering what came over me.
Leo
A sense of playfulness and a desire to exercise my social butterfly wings becomes unplugged this week, moving to extremes. I’m in such a need for fun that you might even find me howling at the Moon, especially during Monday’s lunar eclipse in a fun and playful part of my chart. An even rarer Venus eclipse in a social part of my chart will have me just as eager to be the centre of attention.
Virgo
Any week that has 2 eclipses is going to rattle me, as it will all pets and even you humans, but I’ll cope best if I have some predictability and balance. Chances are this will turn me into a bit of a home body, feeling best when I’m surrounded by all things familiar. Yet by midweek I’m likely to find my inner confidence, doing a complete flip flop and demanding my independence.
Libra
I’ve been under the spell of a sense of adventure and wanderlust for some time, but this week the voice in my head just won’t keep quiet, telling me to just ‘go for it’. While I’m normally well behaved and enjoy having rules and boundaries and enjoy even more the ‘atta girls’ or ‘atta boys’ I get when I abide by them, my inner gypsy is just too strong to be ignored.
Scorpio
If you’re looking to introduce change into my life, then strike while the iron is hot this week. I’m not only more open to change this week but actually want you to bring it on, but I’m going to have a boost in confidence to help me cope with getting what I wish for. For while I want change it’s just as scary for me as it is for you, with an extra dose of confidence a useful panacea.
Sagittarius
I’m so ready to stand up for myself this week, saying ‘no’ when you try and tell me what I should do or to get what I want when you try and stop me, that I’m likely to do just that whether you do or not. Even when you’re not trying to be the boss of me I’ll be standing up and telling you that you can’t. So yes, I am going to get a little loopy this week, but I blame it on all the eclipse energy in the air.
Capricorn
You may start to wonder if my missing twin has all of a sudden showed up from out of the blue and that at times we’re switching places, just to play with you. For while there will be two sides to me this week, they are so extreme and are likely to flip flop so much, that you may be left wondering which is the real me. At times you’ll get the action me, running around like an Eveready Bunny, while at other times you’ll get the sloth.
Aquarius
Whether I’m normally shy and hesitant when there are strangers around or not, my social butterfly wings will be getting a full work out this week. There is a sense of fun in the air this week that I’ll want to tap into, so much so that I’ll be afraid of missing out on anything, showing up just in case. This is being spurred on by a lunar eclipse in a social part of my sign on Monday, which will help me to come out of my shell.
Pisces
Pets and animals as a whole have a sixth sense, relying on and trusting our instincts, which has served us well for thousands of years and works well for me now, knowing how to wrap you around my little finger. Us Piscean pets are even more sensitive, but the downside is that I pick up on everything and with two eclipses this week my senses will be going haywire. This may play havoc with my nerves, but keeping things as routine as possible is all the panacea I need.
Your Love & Romance Horoscopes for June 4
Aries
With some potent eclipse energy in the air today, an alliance between forces on the relationship and communication fronts create yet another opportunity for a breakthrough. It’s where there are strong emotional responses or your buttons are being pushed that you’ll have the opportunity and resources to give unsaid words a voice.
Taurus
As the Moon wraps up his first visit to your relationship sector since last month’s Full Moon this leaves you with a much better read on where things stand on the relationship front, but also how far you still have to go. With the Moon returning later in the month this has given you a chance to get your bearings.
Gemini
From out of nowhere forces on the relationship front are likely to come to a head, as the Moon not only returns to your relationship sector but becomes a lunar eclipse, with the power to bring things to a head or to a turning or tipping point. Yet chances are what might appear to blindside you has been hiding in plain sight, with fate stepping in to take the wheel.
Cancer
As the Moon wraps up his first visit to your romantic sector since last month’s Full Moon he leaves you with plenty to mull over, including the promise of big things destined for the second half of the year. Listen to both what you do and don’t want to hear, knowing that you have time to work on anything revealed.
Leo
Today’s lunar eclipse in your romantic sector is a super charged Lovers Moon, bringing the ultimate eclipse of the heart. While the Moon visits your romantic sector each month this is by far the most important visit of the year, evoking feelings that can’t be ignored. This has the potential to bring things on the romantic front to a turning or tipping point.
Virgo
As Neptune, planet of dreams and fantasies spends his last full day in direct motion in your relationship sector he’s come to a standstill, creating a situation where you’re no longer moving forward but you haven’t yet turned back. This has you stuck in the moment which is exactly where you need to be.
Libra
You’re moving into some important times on the relationship front, where there is a new call for honesty and authenticity, but also where the laws of synchronicity are in effect. It’s today’s lunar eclipse in your communication sector that creates an unexpected opportunity to not only connect, but holds the potential for a breakthrough.
Scorpio
While there is a new sense of urgency on the relationship front, with Jupiter now just 8 days away from leaving your relationship sector, on the romantic front there is a sense of timelessness that is encouraging you to stay in the moment. Take a proactive approach to relationship matters, but when it comes to love it’s all about the here and now.
Sagittarius
At what is an important time on the relationship front, today’s lunar eclipse in your sign creates a need and a call for personal authenticity. With the Moon in opposition with the Sun in your relationship sector this may create some personal and relationship pressure, yet it provides a timely wake up call on both fronts.
Capricorn
With Jupiter, planet of luck and expansion just 8 days away from leaving your romantic sector and with all your cards now on the table, what you see and what you feel is what you get. Knowing what you want and need from love and with both luck and the love gods on your side, all that’s required now is that you walk the talk.
Aquarius
Don’t be surprised if the path to true love doesn’t run smoothly today or that you encounter some roadblocks or pressure, refusing to see this as a sign that you’re on the wrong path. It’s simply today’s lunar eclipse challenging your romantic attentions, with a heart and love that is true likely to come out stronger and more determined as a result.
Pisces
Mars, planet of passion and the warrior planet of the cosmos is now just a month away from leaving your relationship sector and he’ll be doing everything he can to encourage you to make this final month count. Where before it was challenges that you had to respond to, focus now on taking your relationships into the future.
New Moon Report for Monday, June 4th – Neptune Retrograde
Neptune Retrograde
Monday, June 4, 2:03 pm PDT, 5:03 pm EDT
The planet of dreams’ retrograde turn is a subtle influence that generates inspiration from within. It can also revive previous sources of enlightenment and spiritual practice that have been ignored for a while. Communion with nature and connection with spirituality are gifts that we can give ourselves. Compassion and forgiveness will heal our wounds and restore inner faith.
New Moon Report for June 4th – Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius
Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius
Monday, June 4, 4:11 am PDT, 7:11 am EDT
The enthusiasm of this Sagittarius Full Moon is shadowed by a Lunar Eclipse that reminds us to let go of old dreams before we pursue new ones. Beliefs may need to be re-examined when they fail to provide the answers and inspiration that they did in the past. Education and travel could be interrupted and it might be wise to cancel a class or a trip if the going gets too tough. Fussy Mars in Virgo’s square to the Full Moon sparks battles over systems and details, yet worrying about methods is wasteful until long-term goals are clearly defined.
Your Financial Horoscopes for Sunday, June 3rd
Aries
It was 4 weeks ago to the day that a Full Moon in your income sector not only challenged the Sun in your income sector, but lucky Jupiter as well, bringing things on both the income and financial fronts to a head. The Moon has returned to the same spot only to find the Sun gone, so there’ll be less financial pressure but even more reason to pay attention.
Taurus
So far income forces have had an easy ride, with Venus’ retrograde position in your income sector and the tailwind from a solar eclipse almost 2 weeks ago still fast tracking your forward momentum. However, with a lunar eclipse in your financial sector tomorrow you’re about to get the kind of challenges that will raise the bar and declare that it’s ‘game on’.
Gemini
With things about to start moving on the income front, make the most of the final days for some time when Pluto, planet of change and revolution is the only planet active in either of your money houses. Look at where there are fundamental financial matters that you need to take responsibility for, ensuring that when money starts coming in it doesn’t flow out the other end.
Cancer
There is absolutely nothing in today’s stars to suggest that you’re just 24 hours away from a lunar eclipse in your work sector or just weeks away from new doors opening on the income front. This gives you a day where you can get away with taking your work and your money hats off, while feeling confident that something is in the wind.
Leo
Where before income and financial matters were interlinked, their agendas are starting to separate. While things are speeding up on the income front and your fighting spirit is coming into its own, on the financial front as a whole it’s time to pull back and keep things ticking over, behind the scenes.
Virgo
Due to turn direct in your income sector in just over 3 week’s time, Saturn is slowing down to a crawl and will eventually come to a standstill. This is going to make it feel like things are becoming stuck and may appear to stall, but in reality once the tide turns you’ll find that the turnaround will be more extreme than you anticipate, so hold the faith and hang in there.
Libra
It was 4 weeks ago to the day that a Full Moon in your income sector not only created some valuable triggers on the income front, but also some wake up calls as the Moon went head to head with the Sun in your financial sector. While the Sun has moved on Jupiter is still there and the wake up calls, though not as strong, will be even more urgent.
Scorpio
With a lot of focus on your financial situation at the moment and the Moon not even in your income sector yet, it’s no wonder there’s nothing to support that you’re just 24 hours away from a potentially game changing lunar eclipse. An ordinary Full Moon in your income sector is enough to trigger events on the income front, with a lunar eclipse having a lot more clout.
Sagittarius
Over the weekend is the perfect time to take financial inventory, for with Mercury just 4 days away from your financial sector and Pluto already starting to feel some pressure on the income front, this is not the time for putting things off. It’s where you’ve told yourself that you’ll deal with something later that you need to deal with it or at least acknowledge it now.
Capricorn
When Venus visits your work sector the rule of thumb is, that where your heart leads the money will follow. Right now Venus is opening the door to second chances on the work front and with even bigger developments over the coming week, the scene is set to start reaping from what you’ve already sown, especially if you’re following your heart and working smarter.
Aquarius
With Neptune due to turn retrograde in your income sector in just 2 days time and Chiron a week to the day later, things are slowing down to a crawl. Yet rather than a sign that things are becoming stuck, this gives you a chance to process things, at a time when Mars is speeding things up on the financial front as a whole.
Pisces
While nothing may have actually changed on the money front, the nature of the conditions impacting both your income and financial situations lends itself to a growing sense of confidence. You’re able to look back at the past in a way that says ‘that was then and this is now’, allowing you to take ownership of the past without getting hung up on woulda, shoulda, couldas.
Daily Love & Romance Horoscopes for Sunday, June 3rd
Aries
Saturn is just under 3 weeks away from turning direct in your relationship sector, ending his last retrograde phase here for another 30 years. With the door to the past and second chances still open and the communication lines to the past also open, this gives you a chance to address old ghosts and issues, with a chance to put the past behind you.
Taurus
It was 4 weeks ago today that a Full Moon in your relationship sector put direct pressure on both the Sun and Jupiter and as a super Moon, the closest to the Earth in 2012, it most likely pushed a lot of buttons and brought a lot of things to the surface. While the wake up calls might not be so dramatic this time, the messages are still there.
Gemini
While you’re just a day away from a lunar eclipse in your relationship sector, that is destined to bring things on the relationship front to a head or to an important turning or tipping point, the Moon isn’t even here yet. This is going to see things come to a head suddenly on the relationship front tomorrow, making it important to pay attention and to make your relationships a priority today.
Cancer
In just over 2 months time some major new developments will begin coming into play on the romantic front and once on a roll there’ll be no stopping them. Each monthly visit from the Moon to your romantic sector is providing the clues that will help nudge things onto the right path, with a need to start paying more attention to what your heart and instincts are telling you.
Leo
You may be just 1 day away from tomorrow’s solar eclipse in your romantic sector, a super charged Full Moon with the element of fate woven into each moonbeam, but the Moon isn’t even there yet so there is nothing to hook into. A sense of anticipation and excitement might even feel more like a case of anxiety.
Virgo
When Neptune turns retrograde in your relationship sector in 2 days time, by doing what you can now to ensure that the communication lines are open they’ll naturally follow. The surest way to ensure that the communication lines will run into the past, with a chance to give unsaid words a voice, is to ensure they’re open.
Libra
As the Moon progresses Uranus, on his own in your relationship sector, is going to start coming under pressure from Pluto, a planet that likes to stir things up. This will build slowly and may even fly under the radar, until things suddenly come to a head. Already you need to be on alert, finding a balance between not sweating the small stuff but also dealing with anything genuine before it can escalate.
Scorpio
For the last time before Jupiter leaves your relationship sector in 9 days time, the Moon moves into opposition, pushing some buttons for the last time. This is the last wakeup call you’ll get, drawing your attention to the things that need your focus. This is a day for putting your relationships first.
Sagittarius
When Mercury and Venus aligned in your relationship sector yesterday Mercury was moving forward while Venus was moving back. All of a sudden this has put Mercury, planet of communication in the lead and due to leave your relationship sector in 4 days time, communication has just become more important than ever.
Capricorn
For the last time before he leaves your romantic sector in 9 days time, Jupiter is challenged by the Moon today, providing some timely wake up calls, when you can least afford to be asleep at the wheel. Look behind any apparent roadblocks or any buttons that are being pushed, in an honest and authentic way.
Aquarius
Right now, with no planetary activity in either of your professional houses you’re able to give some powerful romantic forces a lot of attention, but that won’t always be the case. With new doors opening on the work front from next week, focus today on finding a balance between work and play. If you can’t manage that over the weekend you’ll have a real problem next week.
Pisces
There hasn’t been a day since last November that you haven’t had planetary activity in your relationship sector and therefore focus on your relationships. At the same time there hasn’t been a day that you’ve had planetary activity in your romantic sector, where things may be getting neglected. That’s about to change, with a need to get ready for a shift in just 4 days time.
Your Daily General Horoscopes for May 26th
Aries
As you work to bring things home on the income front and up to speed on the work front, take the time to deal with any work/life balance issues, especially as you’re heading into some of the busiest and most driven weeks of the year. While you’re a lot more aware of where the money is and you’re a lot more savvy when it comes to where and how you channel your time and energy, it can’t be at the expense of also having a life.
Taurus
For the second time in as many years but for the last time for another 2 decades, the Sun aligns with the South Node in your income sector and moves into opposition with the North Node in your financial sector. This is likely to create some financial tension, but also the clarity to see things clearly. You’re in the early phase of a period of massive income opportunities, with a few timely wake up calls not going astray.
Gemini
It’s by keeping it real and working to ensure that the communication lines are open, that you’ll turn what could be an intense day on both the personal and relationship fronts, into an opportunity for a breakthrough. You’re just 5 days into your new solar year and already what may have passed as enough, okay or good enough in the past is no longer going to cut it. This is destined to be a phenomenal year for you and the bar has been raised across the board.
Cancer
You have already begun the wind down of your current solar year and your focus is already shifting inwards. It’s because heart and mind are also engrossed in this and is giving you access to a clear sense of hindsight and foresight that a lot of things are starting to make sense. If you find that you need to spend more time alone and in contemplation, don’t feel that you’re losing your edge, for you have begun a valuable period of re evaluation.
Leo
Over the course of the last 5 days first the Sun and then Mercury left your career sector and moved to a more social part of your chart and as a result the dynamics of your life have shifted dramatically. Until now your professional life has overwhelmed everything else, yet as it eases back there is a need to both hold onto your professional edge while embracing this more social era. It’s by listening to your instincts that you’ll get the balance right.
Virgo
The Moon’s return to an intuitive part of your chart today is a case of good timing, for it comes just as any work/life balance pressures are likely to come to a head. You’re in the early days of a phenomenal professional comeback and turnaround and your instincts will be telling you that this is important. Yet these very forces go head to head with forces on the home front today, with a chance to look behind what’s pushing any buttons and why.
Libra
As the Moon wraps up his last visit to your career sector before things start to move from early next month, hold onto the professional instincts this leaves you with and to any buttons this pushed. It’s any work/life balance issues that have come to a head over the last few days that you’re able to look back on and get a better understanding of, while you still have time to tweak things before life becomes more professionally focused again.
Scorpio
Just 5 days after the Sun returned to your financial sector and since the solar eclipse on the same day not only opened new doors but shone the light on the road ahead, he reaches a point today where there might be some intensity or even some financial pressure. This is simply forces on the income and financial fronts bumping into each other, with some jostling required to get the right fit and balance.
Sagittarius
You’ve reached a point in the year where relationship forces are already starting to dominate and this will only increase over the coming weeks, with a call to work now to ensure that you have the right balance between your personal and relationship needs. While you need to invest into your relationships what you need back you also need to remain true to yourself. If you neglect to look after you, both you and your relationships will eventually suffer.
Capricorn
It is hard to believe that the Sun only returned to your work sector 5 days ago, but since then the Moon has been and gone, you’ve experienced a solar eclipse and Mercury has returned, giving you the intellectual savvy to work smarter. With the doors to second chances already open and even more new doors due to open in the coming weeks, you’ve reached a point where you need to slow down and just take it all in.
Aquarius
As the Moon wraps up his last visit to your work sector before the first round of planetary activity for the year, hold onto the intuitive insights and hunches this leaves you with, without feeling tempted to over think things. You have another 13 days before new doors open and while you have enough insight to start lining up at the right doors, you won’t know more than you do now before they actually open.
Pisces
Just 9 days before a lunar eclipse in your career sector is destined to bring anything currently building on the professional front to a head or to a tipping or turning point, a mix of developments today give you a chance to start lining up. On one hand the Moon’s return to your work sector will sharpen your instincts and provide some timely hunches and clues, while some work/life balance pressure provides some timely wake up calls and a chance to tweak any balance issues.
New Moon Report for May 24th – Mercury in Gemini
Mercury in Gemini
Thursday, May 24, 4:12 am PDT, 7:12 am EDT
Chatty Mercury is more talkative than ever in its airy home sign. Minds open and words flow with ease, perhaps too much at times as thoughts may be spoken carelessly and data accepted uncritically. Getting the most out of the intellectual richness and verbal skills of this transit requires some discernment. All ideas are not equal and all information is not useful. Keeping one’s purpose and priorities in the foreground helps to avoid these tempting distractions.
