June 2017 promises to be pretty extraordinary in terms of astrology. Perhaps the biggest news is that Jupiter will go direct on June 9. Jupiter is the big planet of abundance, expansion, good fortune and good luck, growth. He is the gift-giver of the universe. He’s been transiting Libra since September 2016 and will stay in Libra until October 2017. He’s been retrograde for a little bit, but is going to go direct on June 9.
What does this mean? If you’re a Libra or a Libra rising (or have Libra in any prominent positions in your natal chart), this is a tremendous boost from the universe to move forward. To progress things you’ve wanted to see progress and develop. Goals, dreams, desires. This is your year to make it happen. And from June until October, this energy will be especially potent. So take advantage of it.
On June 9, there will also be a Full Moon in Sagittarius. Jupiter rules Sagittarius. So the energy felt on this day (and about two or three days before and after this day) will be explosive (in a good way). Sagittarius is a fire sign, and fire signs tend to be about movement and expansion.
In June, Venus will also transit Taurus. Venus rules Taurus and Libra, so she’s quite at home with Taurus. Any time a planet is in the sign it rules, it’s a good thing. Venus rules love and romance and luxury and money. Creature comforts. And Taurus (and Libra) both like nice things. Taurus is an earth sign, so Venus here is about sensual love. Earthy, deep, lusty love.
We also have the the summer solstice on June 21. The “official” start of summer. Whenever there is a shift with the seasons, so too with the astrological energy. On this date, the sun will leave Gemini and enter Cancer. We go from light, airy energy to a little more sensitive and emotional. Gemini is an intellectual sign, all about communication. They love social scenes and mingling. Cancer can be a little more reserved. The crab going into its shell when it feels threatened. Family oriented and sometimes moody.
Mercury also joins the sun in Cancer on June 21. So communication may take a little bit of an inward turn. Meditation is recommended to look within. But so is just spending quiet time along somewhere without distraction.
I’m excited for this month. We just got out of a phase where there were a lot of planets in retrograde and slowly, one by one, they’ve been coming out of it. With Jupiter direct, it really is a signal to move forward with anything you’ve wanted to develop or grow. Business/career, relationships, finances, diet and health goals…now is the time. Don’t let this pass you by. Open your arms wide and let the universe know you’re open to receiving whatever miracles it has ready for you.
Be open to what calls you…
