Astrology Forecast June 12 – 18, 2023
Our creativity soars this week, as we thrive under the inspirational energies of the Gemini Sun to revamp our outlook and surroundings.
Today and tomorrow we’ll also be brainstorming for new ideas under the Aries Moon, and by Wednesday, when the Moon moves into Taurus, we’ll be able to take action on the things we want to change on a physical level.
The week starts off strongly this morning with the Aries Moon trine Mars in Leo. This aspect is known for determination, courage, resourcefulness, and lots of practical action. If you are not working today, this morning is also great for some quality ‘me’ time doing the things you love most.
Whether you are ready to take on a home remodeling project, bring your wardrobe up to date or go for a completely new look, or launch a new spiritual practice to enhance your soul growth, this is the time to bring those to life!
Tuesday afternoon a Aries Moon square with Pluto in Capricorn may however cause some trouble. This transit is notorious for causing irritablity, emotional outbursts, and agressive behavior. Disagreements regarding business or family finances are more likely and we may be more prone to lashing out. Find and keep your inner peace, as the unnecessary drama will not be worth it.
The Gemini New Moon on Saturday heralds a two-week cycle of new beginnings, so the preparations we make this week will quickly move us forward into enhanced levels of being. We can pause for a moment on Sunday as the Moon moves into Cancer, focusing on family, home, and the things that bring us comfort.
Astrology Forecast June 5 – 11, 2023
Make the most of today’s perfect astrological storm to make some great things happen!
The week starts out on a high note with an eager Gemini Sun combining forces with a diligent Capricorn Moon, today and tomorrow. This aspect stimulates boundless productivity, creativity, and networking to kickstart the week.
Venus moving into Leo today casts an additional dramatic flair to our activities and pursuits, while the positive vibes of a Capricorn Moon trine with Jupiter in Taurus seals the deal this morning by creating powerful potential for financial success and social popularity.
The Capricorn Moon sextile with Saturn in Pisces rounds off the day this afternoon with a heightened sense of responsibility and increased organizational focus. A good time to have that business meeting to set targets for the rest of the week.
Social activities will continue to call to us on Wednesday and Thursday under a friendly, inspired Aquarius Moon.
As the week comes to an end we can embrace the free-flowing energy of a Pisces Moon, stepping back to admire all we’ve accomplished, or simply going within to reconnect with our spiritual self.
Don’t get too comfy though, as the Moon will move into Aries, and Mercury will enter Gemini on Sunday, encouraging our adventurous sides to try something new, expand our circle of friends, and flex our communication skills for the next three weeks.
Astrology Forecast May 29 – June 4, 2023
Joyful harmony is the theme at the start of this week, as the Moon glides through Libra today and tomorrow.
A Libra Moon tends to create an effervescent, affectionate mood. Today is a good day to make new friends, and romantically whisper sweet nothings to that someone special. Also, the Libra Moon sextile with Mars in Leo offers the perfect opportunity this evening to spend some quality time with your beloved.
However, be sure to keep your cool Wednesday morning when the Libra Moon squares with Venus in Cancer, as disagreements and arguments are more likely, especially with the women in your life.
The remainder of the week unfolds under a more intense, ambitious Scorpio Moon. Focus, drive, and progress will be the dominant themes Wednesday through Friday. By harnessing this determined energy boost we are likely to get twice as much accomplished as we had planned.
The Moon waxes full in Sagittarius on Saturday, which could bring surprising people into your midst. This Full Moon could have us crossing paths with exes, people we went to grade school with, or even strangers with whom we share a past life connection.
If someone comes up in your thoughts out of the blue, do a search on social media to see if you can find them (assuming you want to find them.) But be careful if an ex shows up this weekend, asking for a second chance. Your answer should be a decisive no, but do relish in the ego trip of knowing they finally realize your worth!
Finally, if you’re still flying solo, this is a great weekend to venture out to the social scenes or check out dating sites. Swipe left? Swipe right? Take a chance, as anything is possible under this lovely Sagittarius Full Moon!
Astrology Forecast May 15 – 21, 2023
Get ready to rock and roll this week, as several important astrological shifts take place and reset the tone for the next few months.
Today’s Aries Moon offers a perfect start to a successful work week by boosting our energy levels and assertiveness. We feel mentally sharp and confident today to take on even the most difficult challenges. The Aries Moon sextile with Pluto in Aquarius this morning will add fuel to the fire with a heightened sense of adventure and fearless risk-taking!
The sign of Taurus takes center stage this week, starting with Jupiter’s move into the sign of the bull on Tuesday, which will inspire us with a more grounded and ambitious focus for the next few years.
The Moon enters Taurus on Wednesday for the remainder of the work week, culminating in a Taurus New Moon on Friday. New Moons signal a two-week cycle of fresh starts and new beginnings, so this is the ideal time to take all those brilliant ideas you’ve been pondering and start putting them into action.
Mars will move into the vibrant sign of Leo on Friday and spend the next two months encouraging us to shine brightly in the world. Mars thrives in fire signs, and Leo is no exception. It’s a good time to share more of your gifts and talents with the world! And if you haven’t been tooting your own horn lately, the Sun will dance into Gemini on Sunday and encourage you to broadcast your brilliance out to the world for the next four weeks.
The Empowering Symbolism Of The World Card
The World card in the Tarot remains one of my firm favorites. I am all for personal and spiritual growth, the completion of cycles, and new beginnings. The World represents exactly that: the ending of a cycle and pause in life, before the next major cycle begins with the fool.
The journey from the new beginnings of The Fool to the fulfilling endings of The World is a constant evolutionary process in our everyday lives that is represented by the sequence of the 22 Major Arcana cards of the Tarot. The World is the 22nd trump and therefore final card of the Major Arcana.
I have reflected on the imagery of the Rider-Waite version of this Tarot card in great detail. Rider-Waite is probably the most popular and universally recognized Tarot deck. The illustrations by Pamela Colman Smith at first glance appear simple, but the details and backgrounds feature abundant mystical symbolism.
The World pictures an empowered figure within a wreath – traditionally a symbol of victory, success, achievement, and eternal life. The figure holds a wand in each hand, which is reminiscent of the Magician card and the Two of Wands. However, while The Magician holds only one wand, the two wands in the The World card represents fulfillment, wholeness, balance and coming full circle.
The card is framed by four animals on the diagonal. The depiction of these four creatures parallels the four animal symbols used in Christian art to represent the four Evangelists, namely Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The four animals also represent the zodiac signs of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius, the four fixed signs in Western Astrology, which in turn represent the classical four elements of Earth, Fire, Water and Air.
Astrology Forecast January 9 – 15, 2023
New doors may open for us today, as the Leo Moon empowers us to reach for the stars and confidently pursue our dreams. Leo is the sign of self-expression, creative expression, and extrovert confidence, so make the most of this energy if it is your first day back at the office after the holidays.
Watch your temper this evening when the Leo Moon is opposite Saturn in Aquarius, as this transit can cause tension and conflict at home. Especially avoid getting into any argument over the household finances or your kids. Also do not ask parents or older family members for any advice under this opposition, as they might only help you out of the frying pan into the fire.
The best thing to do this evening amidst this moody, volatile energy is to get some light exercise, eat a healthy meal and go to bed early for a good night’s sleep. Your mental state will be much improved in the morning.
Tomorrow the Moon moves into Virgo for three days, bringing forward our detailed, organized side and getting work done will be our focus. However, guard against being too analytical, stubborn, or critical of yourself and others, as these Virgo influences left unchecked can sabotage even our best efforts.
Mars will turn direct on Thursday after a two-month retrograde cycle, and officially boost our new year goals with action, action, and more action. Get ready to rock and roll!
Friday and Saturday’s Libra Moon will be a call for balance, as we clear out the remnants of last year and step into the new one. If you haven’t hung your 2023 calendars, dusted off your day planner, or set up your virtual scheduling app, now is the time to do it.
Sunday’s Scorpio Moon will cast a spiritual vibe all around us, compelling us to stop, pause, and look internally for the balance and intuitive direction we need to move forward.
