June Horoscopes

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 - June 20)
Mutable Air. Your ruling planet is Mercury.

It is a two-edged sword that you are dealing with this month, Gemini. On the one hand, the New Moon in your sign signals a time of great energy and expansive positive vibrations, while on the other, with your ruler Mercury retrograde there as well, you might be getting that feeling of disconnection. It is definitely more a time for introspection than for outward assertion right now, although your reflective stance also has its uses when you recognize its quality. The peak days remaining of the retrograde period are those surrounding the 7th and also the 19th, when Mercury goes direct and starts to work its way out of its zodiacal shadow. Intimacy and partnership with important others in your life are also emphasized over the course of this month, as a measure of your own security needs.

As the month begins, you are definitely energized, feeling the excitement of the coming New Moon in your sign early in the first week and as well the aftermath of the last few days of May when there were some interesting curve balls thrown your way in terms of your public offering. This is a fascinating monthly period that is shaping up for you, especially in the first two weeks, with both your traditional ruler, Mercury, and your esoteric ruler, Venus, appearing in your sign, even though the first of these is retrograde. Although the Mercury retrograde period may pull you toward an introspective stance, and you are certainly warned not to make any definite new decisions during this entire month, this is only a relative factor. In fact, anything that you can think up at this time will have extreme relevance for your life as it unfolds over the next few weeks, only you must be aware that adjustments and course corrections will likely be necessary as you work out the details. The New Moon that comes along on Tuesday, June 3rd, brings plenty of positive communicative energy along with it that may last for days. You, who love to discuss your world with your circle of peers in any case, will feel the tide of interpersonal connection sweeping through you as you reach out intellectually to others around you. There is a mystical side to your verbal explorations at this time as well, and a sense in which greater profundity of relationship connection is fostered by the surface chatter, as you are called at this time to examine everything from a depth as well as a more mundane perspective. The triple conjunction of the Sun, Venus, and your ruler Mercury that takes place on Saturday, June 7th, gives you a brief peak of intensity of connection and of looking within also. It may help you to recognize this energy as a reflection of cosmic forces in action in your life rather than having no reference point. The philosophical reasons behind recent departures from the norm, stemming from the end of the previous month, will become more apparent as the weeks of these summer months roll on. The First Quarter Moon of Tuesday, June 10th, is another crucial turning point that is likely to present you with some tension in your process and recalls for you the new and in many ways positive surprising directions that your career and professional life has taken off in lately. The Full Moon a week later, taking place on Wednesday, June 18th, and the days immediately following, when Mercury changes direction and the Sun charges into your security sector, takes you to an even more mystical frame of mind. You are looking under the covers of every aspect of your life at this time, and finding treasure. There is a reason behind all these changes that you are currently going through that will emerge over time, the more so the more you can patiently watch and wait as you allow the dust to settle.
