June starts with a brilliant aspect between the lover of the beautiful game and patron of South American football Venus and jovial Jupiter, the great planet of abundant goals. Both getting together to help the organisers roll out the Red carpet for the upcoming World Cup spectacular. Add the planet of mystery, confusion and all that is hidden behind the curtain – Neptune – to the cosmic mix and there should be something for everybody in Russia. Perhaps surprisingly, given recent global events, relationships are well starred; plus the drama of the spectacle will be stepped up by Venus being in stately Leo for the opening ceremonials and early matches. Whilst her war like consort, protector, and football star Mars takes a stand from the opposite end of the sky – unpredictable Aquarius – however, the powers of the old warrior are on the wane from the 27th as he enters a long retrograde phase, which could seriously slow down his pace during the Dog days of summer. The Gemini new moon on the 13th favours the tactical innovators, whilst the full moon two weeks later is in seriously ambitious hard-working Capricorn. The sun in emotionally sensitive Cancer marks a sentimental parting of the ways on the 28th – as the World Cup gets serious and the might-have-beens are waved off.
ARIES MARCH 21 – APRIL 20
Dynamic Mars, your ruling planet, is in eccentric Aquarius all this month urging you to remember your Self and your sole purpose. You have a perfect opportunity to sweep away unhelpful images and be the real you: relationships hold a mirror. Take advantage of Venus – love and beauty – as she passes through Leo making a positive aspect to your social life.
TAURUS APRIL 21 – MAY 21
Unpredictable maverick Uranus, newly arrived in your sign and in challenging aspect to daredevil Mars, expects some fundamental changes. Don’t keep him dangling. Positive thoughts, expanding horizons, and innovative new people crossing your path help you make progress.
GEMINI MAY 22 – JUNE 21
It’s your birthday month and it starts well with the Sun in close alignment with thoughtful Mercury, your ruler. It’s time to be absolutely clear – yes, there are two sides to every story – but do what’s best for you. Make the most of partnerships: two heads are better than one especially around the new moon on the 13th
CANCER JUNE 22 – JULY 22
Venus, the lover of the beautiful game, is in a splendid aspect with mystical Neptune, offering the perfect opportunity for a new romantic encounter or the chance to revamp an existing one. After the 14th you are in the right frame of mind to focus on finances and make some important decisions.
LEO JULY 23 – AUGUST 23
If you have set plans for around the time of the Gemini new moon on the 13th don’t set them in concrete: keep your options open until the last minute. The social sector of your chart is in transition with new friends and exciting experiences appearing over the horizon. Venus moves into your sign on the 14th bringing attitude and gratitude.
VIRGO AUGUST 24 – SEPTEMBER 22
Jovial giant Jupiter is strong in your communication sector urging you to examine all practical alternatives before committing. This could be the most important month of the year for you: the new moon on the 13th signals radical change.
LIBRA SEPTEMBER 23 – OCTOBER 23
The Sun and the cosmic messenger Mercury are passing through the travel sector of your chart turning your thoughts to exotic faraway places. Planning holidays will be fun this month: new friends and relationships accompany Venus as she moves into your playful sector after the 14th
SCORPIO OCTOBER 24 – NOVEMBER 22
The Sun, Mercury and the new moon all gather in your money sector around the middle of the month urging you to take note and take charge. Jupiter in your sign enables an expansive if pragmatic approach to investing – if you can’t make money right now at least don’t lose it.
SAGITTARIUS NOVEMBER 23 – DECEMBER 21
The here and now is uppermost for aim-for-the-stars free-spirited Sagittarians this month; am I giving enough time to family and loved ones? More haste less speed? The new moon on the 13th – plus your intention – activates new beginnings.
CAPRICORN DECEMBER 22 – JANUARY 20
June brings ‘MAKING A LIVING’ into the spotlight; it’s time to banish fears and false ideas of limitation and allow yourself the luxury of allowing abundance into your reality. Consciously working with the mercurial Gemini new moon on the 13th will open up magical possibilities.
AQUARIUS JANUARY 21 – FEBRUARY 18
Being receptive to the planet of love and beauty, Venus, in emotionally sensitive Cancer – until the 13th – creates the ideal environment for romance. Daring Mars in your own sign could get you into hot water if you take your eye off the ball.
PISCES FEBRUARY 19 – MARCH 20
Things could get rather hectic with family life this month as important planetary movements in restless Gemini make their presence felt at home. Whilst you are capable of spinning several plates it may be time to decide which ones you really need to keep.
