Astrology Forecast for Week of June 24
Monday: Today is also the last full day that Jupiter is expressing his expansive, optimistic, go-for-broke bent in Gemini, the zodiac’s hub of communication, transportation and multitasking. Issues could skyrocket last-minute as he makes his way to the door. With Mercury retrograde coming, my money is on technology snafus. The morning is quiet, the afternoon much less so. Emotional fulfillment is one question in the air. Another is your comfort level with communicating, particularly with family or when emotions are kicking in. I see a spike in ice cream, doughnuts and chocolate.
Tuesday: The theme from “Jaws” is sounding in the distance as many of us start our day. It’s the soundtrack for the stirring of longings and compulsions and ugly critters that don’t normally see the light. You want to talk about them, yet you don’t, yet they don’t go away. The emotional side-stepping that results could bruise a toe or two. Talk, running around, optimism and agendas escalate as Jupiter heads for the door into Cancer. He makes his move just before 10 EDT. Nesting urges kick in, in a big way. Second winds lead to late night rearranging, redecorating, cookie-baking…you are forewarned.
Wednesday: Emotional grounding cords sink down overnight as the Sun makes an exact link to Saturn. Note the calm and self-confidence that is coming naturally. Mercury cuts his engines to go retrograde today. Time will have the sensation of slowing until Friday, when he slides off the degree of his station. If information or answers feel just out of reach, give them a few days. (Read more in my Mercury Retrograde Guide.) The Moon pushes off from action-oriented Mars at 9:09 AM EDT into a void that lasts until 4:33 AM tomorrow. You may feel revved up and then at loose ends. Funnel the energy into tasks that you will do again because of their nature. The Sun makes an exact link to Neptune inside the void (following this year’s recurring occurrence of planetary aspects under void of course Moons — a recurring occurrence of pushing us ever inward). This calls for handing the reins over to something other than your conscious mind. Inspiration runs high, guidance abounds, and romance is sweet. You do have choices about how you look at a situation, and what you say about it, and those choices could play out with that darned Jaws theme still audible. Late night spawns all manner of self-improvement projects.
