Astrology
The Full Moon in Sagittarius suggest dreaming of foreign places and the itch for movement in any direction. But this Mutable Moon occurring on June 2 carries the burden of Mercury RX in Gemini squaring Neptune in foggy Pisces. It's like the plane never rises above the fog bank and the far-off land seems like a pipe dream. (Basically we start of June with a Mutable T-Cross involving Sun/Mercury in Gemini, Full Moon in Sagittarius, and Neptune in Pisces).
For the most part, Cardinal Signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn), take a respite the first three weeks of June and the Mutable Signs (Pisces, Gemini, Virgo, and Sagittarius), experience restlessness, nervous exhaustion, or mental fog due to the Mercury RX square to Neptune, and restless Mars in Gemini. However, there isn't anything these signs can't handle with a bit of rest and a sense of humor. And actually, we experience some of the best aspects for taking a vacation in June despite the Mercury RX which only lasts until June 12 and then a shadow period for the week after that date. (However, refrain from signing any contracts, making major purchase or making any major changes until after June 23. Use discernment in all situations because something might just be too good to be true).
Also along with the Mutable T-Cross is a Grand Fire Trine (wider orbs) with the Full Moon at 11 degrees Sagittarius, Uranus at 19 degrees Aries and Jupiter at 16 degrees Leo. Normally, I go with the 5 degree orb, but since this Grand Fire Trine occurs during a Full Moon, we will experience this Grand Trine as inspiration, enthusiasm, and adventure. The Grand Fire Trine combined with the T-Cross forms a kite, which means that we can soar above whatever tensions we encounter now if we go with the flow or remember the words of Esther Hicks as she channels Abraham, "Easy and graceful". In other words, don't push against the tide, but ride whatever waves come up with full detachment and no judgement.
The new planet Ceres at 9 degrees Aquarius trines Mercury RX which could lead to several scenarios involving food and nourishment. We could see numerous recalls on food products, uncover research about the toxicity in certain foods, hear more arguments against GMO food, and we will gaze deeply at the future of food on the planet under the guise of food security. Pay attention to food labels because they might have changed and some foods that were once gluten-free might contain gluten now under a new recipe, or because of a new processing plant that also processes gluten-containing grains. Pay attention to expiration dates on food and keep track of any food poisoning notices in the news since I've noticed more incidents of food poisoning when Mercury is RX. The good news is if you stay informed without giving into fear, you keep you and your family safe.
Since Ceres is in futuristic Aquarius, during the first week of June around the Full Moon, we will explore the future of food. What direction would you like to pursue? Join the conversations in this regard on social media and at lectures.We'll have plenty of opportunities for lectures and I predict that Ted Talks will receive heavier traffic around the Full Moon in Sagittarius. And we're also going to hear a lot from Oprah because of her Aquarius Sun and Sagittarius Moon.
With the Moon in Sagittarius and Jupiter transiting direct in Leo forming a trine with Uranus in Aries, we're still ready to pack our bags and go places, if not in the physical realm then definitely in our imagination. When Mercury is retrograde we use this time to reassess our lives, edit old manuscripts, revisit our education and decide if we require higher degrees, or going back to school to study a vocation that can earn us more money. We reassess our religious beliefs and look to the area of our lives where we have faith, even blind faith. Some of us research publishers and literary agents to send our manuscripts and some of us explore new cultures and delve into anthropology. We're all feeling curious about something worth exploring and the first three weeks of June offer us the time for that. If you feel like you don't have time in June to explore your life situation, then your life is out of balance and you are most likely using a busy schedule as an excuse to not face the music, whatever that is for you. Slow down, breathe, and release yourself from extra obligations.
We experience a sextile between Neptune and Pluto which is not uncommon. This means that we have the power to transform our lives by listening to the insights in our dreams and that we hear during our meditation practice. We can easily channel information with this aspect even though it's at a 6 degree orb. The sextile tightens as Pluto continues its retrograde motion. Now, is the perfect time to hone spiritual practices and work with spiritual tools that involve intuition. The veils are thin and we don't have Pluto playing power games when its retrograde. In fact, during a Pluto retrograde we use the time (6 months), to integrate what we have gained from previous transitions brought on by Pluto's death and rebirth process. Let's not get caught in the Neptune fog however and do use Pluto's ruthless gaze in owning shadows and projections.
Around the time of the Full Moon, three planets are retrograde (Mercury, Saturn, and Pluto), which is another reason I think this represents a time of respite. Technology isn't going to play nice in the sandbox now leading to frustration. Work we do now we'll have to redo later and rushing around or multitasking will only lead to frustration. So why not take some time out? Take a walk in nature, or better yet, go out of town and leave your electronic devices at home, including the cell phone. Turn off the news because it's not going to make sense anyway and most of what you hear or see is missing facts. In fact, many reporters and editors will deliver apologies for misinformation after Mercury goes direct mid-June.
With Saturn retrograde we could mistake a time-out as an excuse to shirk our responsibilities and live outside of integrity. The problem with this approach is that when Saturn goes direct on August 2, we will experience delayed consequences for our actions. And those of you with Saturn at 28 and 29 degrees Scorpio complete your Saturn Returns during the Saturn retrograde period, meaning you integrate the wisdom you gained from this life transition and take full responsibility for your life choices. Welcome to adulthood if you're around 30 years of age and welcome to your wisdom years of if you're around 60 years of age, and welcome to your transition period if you're around 90 years of age.
I believe that the mutable energies we experience in June foreshadow Jupiter moving into Virgo on August 11, Saturn returning to Sagittarius on September 19 and the Saturn-Neptune exact square coming up on November 26. Pisces, this is not a good time for you to escape into denial, or addictions for that would turn into nightmares for you. Gemini, this is not a good time for you to escape responsibilities, or get stuck in a gloomy mindset. Sagittarius, this would not be a good time for you to have an ideal without the steps to manifesting it and release the attitude that you're always right. Finally, Virgo, this is not a good time to get so caught up in your work routine that you miss the forest through the trees. That attitude will lead to nervous exhaustion. Have faith, do the work, and take responsibility for manifesting your dreams. That advice applies to all signs, but especially the Mutable Signs.
I encourage those of you with numerous Mutable planets, Mutable T-Squares or Grand Squares to get transit or Solar Return readings (Gemini gets 10% off on a Solar Return reading in June). Sign up for a reading at Metaphysics for Everyday Living
