Big love.

As we reach the halfway mark of 2023, June sets the stage for love and romance in a BIG way!  We'll have the opportunity to really listen to and understand what our hearts truly desire.

Let's take a look at what June has in store for us.

The Breakdown

• Full Moon in Sagittarius - June 3rd
• Venus enters Leo - June 5th
• Mercury enters Gemini - June 11th
• Pluto retrograde enters Capricorn - June 11th
• Saturn goes retrograde - June 17th
• New Moon in Gemini - June 18th
• Sun enters Cancer - June 21st
• Mercury enters Cancer - June 26th
• Neptune goes retrograde - June 30th

The month begins with a powerful Full Moon in Sagittarius on June 3rd.  This will be a time of total illumination when we will become abundance-minded, faithful, and optimistic about the future.

On June 5th, Venus will enter Leo where she will remain until October.  Her extended stay is due to the fact that she will be retrograde from July to September.  In Leo, Venus urges us to have the courage to follow our hearts and to listen to our inner children.  Romance will also be highlighted.

On June 11th, Mercury will enter its home sign of Gemini, so expect your mental capacities to be firing on all cylinders.  Over the course of two weeks, Mercury will allow us to be social, curious, and eager to learn new things.

That same day, Pluto (currently retrograde) will backtrack into Capricorn.  Over the last three months, we've had a sneak peek of what Pluto in Aquarius is all about.  Now, and until January 2024, Pluto will make one last pass through Capricorn to dismantle anything that no longer serves us.

Saturn, the planet of obstacles and lessons, will go retrograde in Pisces on June 17th, to last until early November.  During this time, we'll have the opportunity to reflect on important life lessons, our inner world, and our spiritual structures.  This can, and likely will be a very enlightening time.

This month's New Moon is going down in the sign of Gemini on June 18th.  New Moons are all about new beginnings, and this Moon allows us to adopt a whole new mindset.  Indulge your curiosities and learn something new during this time.

One June 21st, the Sun moves into Cancer, marking a new zodiacal season, along with the summer solstice.  Over the next month, we'll be focusing on the things we want to nurture and develop.  Expect your emotions to take center stage.

Mercury makes its second move of the month into Cancer on June 26th.  In Cancer, Mercury is intuitive, sensitive, and instinctive.  It's no so much about what is said, but more so about what is felt.

Finally, we close out the month with Neptune, the planet of dreams and illusions, going retrograde in Pisces on June 30th.  Neptune will remain retrograde until December, and during this time we'll see things for what they really are.  The rose-colored glasses come off, and we have the chance to change our situations from the inside out.
