Aries: Even with your career in fast forward, you might be surprised by how much more you can get done when you allow yourself to stop, rest and pause more regularly. Money flows when your creativity and life force energy sync up with effective, clear action steps. Harmonize these two more consciously in the coming cycle, while noticing how rest and rejuvenation can support the increase of abundance in your life. Calculate your action steps and clearly communicate your needs. Allow the love to flow towards you and through you.

Taurus: It takes courage to be creative. It takes creativity to be courageous. You have both at your fingertips right now. Channel this energy effectively right now so that you can create new pathways for thriving. Trusting your power is an essential ingredient for persevering right now. How can you work with the self doubt more consciously? Navigate the territory of the mental body with wisdom and care. Don't let it get away with you, or it will take your nourishment with it. Speak up and be heard!

Gemini: Resource from your depths and let your passion out of the closet! Communicate, connect and co-create, especially through speaking and using the internet. Heal yourself by being in service to others. Give guidance, wisdom and nourishment to those in need and let yourself be fed as a result. Your courage will take you far! Mind the critic and don't let the critic mind you. Meditation will calm the mental body but also seek out new connections and resources for comfort, nourishment and support.

Cancer: As the flow of love and creative energy increases, you are learning how to direct this flow more effectively and consciously. Simultaneously, working with excess is a valuable use of your time. How can you find greater balance even when passions and cravings are strong? Learn to navigate your intense desires. What is the need underneath them? How can you use this to create more stability, nourishment and support in your life? Notice how are you creating uncertainty and confusion. How does this feed your inability to get your needs met? Take your power back.

Leo: Gains come from writing, communication and self expression. How are you sharing and showing up in this process? Retreats and away time will help you make new relationships and career connections. Invite in the flow, the abundance and wealth! Heal from the heart and let your heart be healed simultaneously. This is a vital resource in order for you to be more nourished and vital. Be sure to balance your giving and receiving so you don't burn out. Ask for support in new ways and see who shows up to help you grow and expand your career and dharma.

Virgo: Rahu continues to bring confusion as he transits through your head. What are you learning about your relationship with chaos, confusion and uncertainty? Share your discoveries with others and let the mental body, imagination, writing and speaking be resources for deeper connection, shining and being seen. Gains come from expressing your feelings, working with fears around commitment and deepening your heart wisdom. Let your art inform your body and your body inform your art. Get creative and let it be the balm that heals you!

Libra: Alas, you are finally feeling some support and stability, mixed with enthusiasm about sharing yourself. Resource from your depths and take time for meditation and relaxation. Passionately connect and create while gaining from relationships, wisdom and deep listening. Notice where your past is informing your mental body, your imagination, stories and thoughts. Move towards the joy and let it flow- all while expanding you and your options.

Scorpio: There is an influx of new relationships arriving to help you share your message, to help support you and your self expansion. Share through communications, writing and speak from the heart. Target your message though and make it focused. Who is your ideal audience and what are their needs? You may need to take a back seat and get some rest- so work smarter, not harder and don't push too hard right now to be seen. Your spot light appearances are coming in the months ahead, but for now, gather your resources, seek clarity and target your message. Doubt the doubt, or it will sabotage your power!

Sagittarius: Is that passion or anger you are feeling in your relationships- or both? Don't mistake the intense emotion for a lack of love. You are learning to navigate your full range of emotion so let it inform your healing and awakening process without guilt or shame. Letting go and releasing the past is offering you deep cleansing and making space for deeper love to emerge. Tend to your grief, old hurts and losses, and start to create a life that feels more nourishing and joyful.

Capricorn: Feelings are flowing, accessible through your heart and pelvis. Receive gains through allowing your sensorial being to awaken you. Listen, pause and provoke by tracking sensations in your physical body. How can you use this information to spark some new creativity, insights and openings in your relationships? Get passionate about healing and being healed. Your heart is ready to help you start awakening in new ways, while your feelings and body awareness will serve this process.

Aquarius: Keep retracing your steps and see how this supports your career and offerings. Courageously create, share and communicate from your heart. Speaking your truth will be the healing balm you need to heal, to open, expand and allow love to flow more fluidly through you. The internet can be a resource for connecting right now, don't disregard this channel. Watch for overindulgence in sweets and intoxicants. Falling off the wagon is too easy. Muster up your passion and let it advance you, but avoid stomach upset by listening to the wisdom your solar plexus has to share with you.

Pisces: The heart is aflame! Feeling the passion or having heart burn? Watch how you are feeding these powerful flames and be mindful of what you are eating- on all levels of life. The stomach can be a way to deepen our relationship with the intuition; it's the second brain. Feed yourself well and you will be nourished more deeply by life, relationships and your environment. The heart wants what the heart wants, but be sure to ask the stomach for guidance and listen to its wisdom.

Moon begins its waxing cycle mid morning on the 16th while still in Gemini. Moon is conjunct Mars and Sun who have just arrived in this airy, creative sign known for connection and communication. As Mars and Sun chase each other into Gemini, this sparks a heat wave of creativity, communication and connectivity.

Gemini represents the merging of energies, and the new, third energy that is created as a result. Metaphorically, this connects to the energy of lovers coming together, creating a "third energy" out of their unification. From an artistic perspective, Gemini can represent the artist and their medium, plus the arrival of a "third" energy- or the emerging transcendental experience. The creative energy of Gemini is unstoppable, changeable and always moving. In the coming cycle, merge and connect with new ideas and people, in order to deepen your nourishment, increase wealth and find new resources. How can you extend and expand your reach by joining forces in new ways?

A certain dynamism charges us forward into this waxing cycle with relationships being a primary source of desire. Feel, search, express- while flowing, expanding and creating new pathways. This cycle will be a time of many new insights, ideas and a very strong imagination and it will give us the potential for new connections, collaborations and relationships. But in order to have space for new relationships, we must let go or loosen attachments to the old.

With Jupiter and Venus still conjunct in Cancer, being mindful of overindulgence with sweets and alcohol will be important. Our success at this time will be determined by how well we put our passion and creative energy to use. Being selective about which ideas (and what relationships) get your action steps will be crucial. Every idea is great, but not every idea needs to be acted upon. Find new ways to communicate within your relationships, while expressing yourself in new ways. Express with passion and flare, just be mindful of gentleness and others' needs as well.

Moon is waxing (bright half) and moves through Virgo, Libra, Scorpio and Sagittarius this week. Moon is debilitated in Scorpio from 6.20 to 6.22.

Summer Solstice is Friday 6.21 when the Earth is tilted towards the Sun and its axis gives us the longest day of sunlight for the year. This has both felt and metaphoric connotations. This "day of light" is followed by the full moon in Sagittarius on 6.23 at 06:23 CDT. This is a week of charged masculine and feminine energies.

Venus moves to Cancer this week on 6.22 at 14:10 CDT and will be weak due to its sandhi (gap) passage; it is not a friend of Cancer.

We can expect our relationships to effect our emotions and vice versa during this transit. We can also expect extra sensitivity for the feminine part of ourselves, and extra sensitivity for the feminine and divine feminine we are connected to.

Both Cancer and Venus correlate to water and bring movement, currents, expansion, tears, fluidity, emotional releases and passionate hearts. Venus will be receiving drishti from Saturn (Saturn who is still retrograde in its position of exaltation, rendering him debilitated, and in Swati nakshatra, ruled by Vayu, the wind god, enters Cancer on a Saturday- day of Saturn). As Venus transits through Cancer, the aforementioned will gain an extra level of sensitivity, as well as an element of grief and sorrow possible. Expect structures, frames, perceptions, and containers to shift, expand and change. There is also the likelihood of transportation issues, car troubles, problems while traveling, etc. Patience and caution may be necessary.

Being physically active with intentionality will go a long way to ease this transit. Do physical movement such as dance, yoga, walking/running, somatic awareness etc.  Watch for somatic-bypassing. This will be a great time to practice your (mental/emotional) surfing skills!

Sun moves to Ardra nakshatra on 6.21 and will be there for two weeks. Ardra is connected to Rudra and Rahu, both known for creating changes, destruction, movement and storms. Expect high energy changes and restructuring over the next few weeks. Hang on, Jupiter is next!

Do not use these horoscopes with your "Western Sign" as there is likely no correlation. These horoscopes are meant to be used as a broad overview of the current transits and obviously do not address the specifics of an individual's unique chart.

Aries: Movement, change, and transition are determined by your courage, self-initiated actions, and effort. Emotions with women, heart, home, and land will be sensitive. Your focus is on children, growth, knowledge and decisions, but only due to sheer force. Make space for healthy expression and creativity. Find a safe space for "messy emotions" when necessary.

Taurus: You and your heart are on a mission and it's full steam ahead! The foreign and unusual seem magical and captivating. Enjoy it while it lasts- it will lose it's charm inevitably. Comfort and support, wealth, sustenance and support, speech, singing and eating are still effecting you. Watch what goes in and out of your portals. Bad habits and vulnerabilities are present. Watch your emotions- they give the biggest clues into your safety and security. This is a time to put your needs first.

Gemini: You are still shining and finding much to say about it. Expect an increase in voicing the emotions- a desire, a need a necessity to do so. Share this and make it an offering, a creative gift. Children, decisions, intelligence, relationships and romance continue to blow in and around your mind. How are you doing with pressing the pause button these days? Press it before you are forced to.

Cancer: When one door opens, another closes. You are navigating openings and closings, endings and beginnings, losses and gains. The heart seems to expand and contract with every up and down. Use this next Venus cycle to bring awareness to your tides- to the creative tides, the emotional tides, the tides of desire, the tides of momentum and movement. This week especially brings insights. Pay attention to the waters within.

Leo: There's a certain creative charge occurring for you right now. You are in a space of offering and have the energy and dynamism to do so. As Venus moves to your twelfth house, expect a shift in your creative tides. Pay attention to the subtleties or you will end of forcing things to happen that have a time frame of their own. The process will be slower, expect some endings, transformations and losses to take place. Note the parts of you that are in a rest phase. Be sure to switch gears and come to a full and complete stop when necessary.

Virgo: We might call you motor mouth. Move the mouth and let the inner winds transform your thoughts, words and actions. Sing your songs of freedom. Creative gains, relationships and friendships begin to shift and move. The fierce guru is cultivating your presence and dharma. Magic can enter through the back door- and leave just as quickly. Work on courage and taking effective action steps.

Libra: Some of the new awareness you have received will be moving into external expression, an offering, over the next few weeks. There is a drive to do so now and some may get support from friends or gains in the process. Don't expect complete ease here- this may be an emotional experience- one that likely digs up the old muck. But let the flood waters bring a sense of cleansing, even if at first it ungrounds you and creates muddy water.

Scorpio: The door to the outside world is bringing some irritations still, but also a certain charge and dynamism. Harness the powers and use it with the winds that will bring movement and momentum. You will go further. The emotions, somatic awareness, and the feminine, will begin teaching you more fluidity. Listen to the raindrops making music. Transformations, travels, changes, endings. Doors are opening and closing with old and new opportunities.

Sagittarius: Others, relationships, external resources, the door to the outside world are all bringing resources, offerings, tools, and gifts. Are you receptive to receiving them? You may be so charged from enemy combat that you can't take it in. Don't worry, the emotional currents are beginning to pool and will soon break down your dam. Endings bring beginnings, losses can bring blessings. Find some semblance of gratitude amongst the turmoil.

Capricorn: Paying attention to your gut is essential as you navigate this time of vulnerability. Dealing with enemies, bad habits, losses and changes can take its toll. It is imperative to trust your gut instincts, mental acuity, and felt sense, when making decisions, taking action and navigating relationships. As Venus moves into your seventh house, these skills will be paramount. The portal to the outside world will be alluring, passionate, creatively tantalizing. Finding balance between the inner waters, the emotional needs and the outer lures, will be  essential.

Aquarius: Insights and awareness have proved useful lately. Changes, movement and momentum have increased on certain levels. As Venus moves this week, you will be entering a cycle that requires your digestion of creativity and emotions. Be vigilant with these two elements and note their intimate connection. For you, chewing carefully- words, ideas, thoughts, emotions, food- will be very important. Talk it out. Walk it out. Paint it out.

Pisces: It takes two to tango. Your work right now involves the dance of the heart and the mind. This dance begins to move more consciously over the next few weeks so pay attention to the direction you are moving in. You can effectively take action steps and courageous leaps if you dare. Watch for the old bad habits though, and the "enemies" blocking your path. Realizations will come with mind/body connections.
