Pay close attention to your inner promptings this week, as we are being activated in subtle and profound ways. With the Uranus, Neptune, Pluto in harmonious alignment, we are receiving powerful transmissions that impact us energetically. Maybe you can feel old attachments loosening and falling away, leaving you lighter, renewed, or just different. That’s the plan. 

They are simultaneously dissolving, rearranging and innovating, creating a cultural shift by generating frequencies that encode and upgrade consciousness.

July 4 – Mars conjunct Uranus in Gemini

Mars meets Uranus in Gemini with an electrifying burst of movement, insight and change. Expect the unexpected as plans shift, conversations accelerate and new info arrives quickly. This is breakthrough energy that can liberate you from outdated thinking, habitual patterns and stagnant situations. But it can also create impatience, scattered attention and impulsive reactions if you’re not grounded. Stay awake and be flexible. Consider innovative solutions and new ways of engaging going forward. A single conversation, awareness or decision can impact your future.

HYPERLINK “https://www.soullevelsolutions.com/free-mercrx-report-signup”Mercury Retrograde rules Mars-Uranus in Gemini, which supports reviewing any ideas, decisions and boundaries that need revising to align with your evolving consciousness. Mercury Rx in Cancer is slow and sensitive, which can help to regulate your rhythm and integrate necessary info as life speeds up. A blessing. Use the Mercury Retrograde process well. 

July 4 – Mars trine Neptune 

Neptune softens the atmosphere and calls you within to contemplate, listen and attune to your inner world for any messages that serve your unfolding path. Practice Wu Wei, moving with effortless action by flowing around obstacles, so that you are intuitively guided in harmony with your environment.

July 5 – Mars trine Pluto

Mars trine Pluto empowers you to act with greater courage, confidence and purpose. You may feel a surge of personal power as you step forward and trust your ability to handle what is being asked of you. This dynamic aspect supports focused action, resilience and unwavering determination, giving you the stamina and inner strength to accomplish what you may have avoided. 

July 6 – Sun square Saturn

After the heightened energy of the weekend, now you come down to earth and face a decision or a reality check of some kind. It may be extra responsibility, a delay or a perceived challenge, but honor yourself by doing the necessary work and being patient. It may not make sense in the moment, but there is a greater plan and this is part of it. More will be revealed as you go on.

July 7-Dec 12 – Neptune Stations Retrograde

The Neptune Station’s energy of Oneness is reverberating all week as it stops to turn Retrograde. The energy of Being is unwinding old ego structures and stimulating your dreams. Create space for retreat and stillness whenever you can. This is a good time for visioning, meditation, being in nature, spiritual practices and just relaxing. Spaciousness is nourishing. Try to take twice as much time to do half as many things to rest your nervous system. 

July 9-Aug 6 – Venus in Virgo

This is a period to refine who and what matters to you, to clear clutter, organize your life and find beauty in simplicity. Your habits and routines illustrate what you value and your rituals reveal how you value yourself. Self-care is favored with a focus on what you can simplify or streamline. 

With Venus in Virgo, less is more, but it has to be effective and efficient. Acts of service are Virgo’s love language and helpfulness is their currency. Note: perfectionism and self-criticism is a judgment against yourself (or others), so don’t get carried away with getting everything so “right” you forfeit your happiness.

June ’26 – Sept ’27 – Jupiter in Leo 

Jupiter in Leo is asking you to step into your leadership and share your gifts, strengths and talents. It’s time to come out of hiding and step into your heart-centered leadership, whether personally or professionally. You have something special to offer and it’s time to show up and shine your Light. Step into the spotlight on whatever level makes sense for you. 

You were not given your gifts to keep them hidden. Honor yourself, your generosity, and what you’re here to share, allowing for new creative expression to come through you, with Jupiter amplifying Leo’s potential. 

It’s time to recover your ability to play and embody joy again. Your childlike essence is still within you, waiting to come out, as Jupiter in Leo loves to have fun!

June 19-Sept 17 – Chiron in Taurus

This is about how you value your Self. Your worthiness influences your decisions, goals and determines what you will allow yourself to receive and what you ultimately believe is possible, along with your beliefs about abundance.

Jupiter in Leo wants you to step forward, but Chiron in Taurus will inhibit you if it feels wrong or unsafe to be visible, to be the leader, to be in your Authority. You may look good in your world, but may still be playing at a level that feels safe for you and is not really your full expression. Only you  know that, but this is a profound exploration should you choose to do it. 

Anything that feels challenging to your security or physical wellbeing is ripe for Chiron’s activation —and medicine. How you handle what you experience is an inside job and that’s where the real healing takes place.

It’s important to be connected to those who support your growth, expansion and blossoming as we experience new incoming frequencies this month. You want a tribe who can support, inspire and celebrate you as you shift into new creative expressions where you are even more of your Self in some new way. Community is the name of the game in this new era, so find yours if you don’t have one now.

Keep your heart open and trust that All is in Divine Order. Inspiration overrides lower energies, so find whatever inspires you to grow. 

As always, I am grateful for your presence on our journey together.

Written by Lisa E Zimmerman

 

We conclude June with dueling energies. There’s a push to get things done within the container of a Mercury Retrograde Station that is slowing things down in order to turn and retrace our recent steps. Pack your patience and decide consciously what you want to handle. Don’t overload your expectations or your To Do list, as this is not a high-volume space. Less is more.

 

June 28 – Mars sextile Jupiter

 

If you need to get something done, this is for you. With one final push as Jupiter leaves Cancer, Mars connects to amplify your efforts, enthusiasm and confidence to take action. But we’re also in the Retrograde Station of Mercury, which can cloud info and communications, so double-check decisions, details and schedules. Physical activity will serve you well.

 

June 28-Aug 13 – Mars in Gemini

 

Watch the multi-tasking ramp up with the warrior in the sign of the curious, lively, communicator that wants to sample everything. Focus your attention so you don’t get scattered and enjoy connecting, learning, networking and brainstorming ideas.

 

Mars meets Uranus on July 4, so expect the pace to accelerate as the week unfolds. Unexpected events can occur and although we’re used to sudden changes these days, Mars can be aggressive, impatient or impulsive, and the pair is combustible. Think: fireworks (yes, 4th of July). The best use of Mars-Uranus is to create innovative solutions, a new direction or way of operating. Easy does it…

 

On June 29 three events occur within twelve hours: Mercury Stations Retrograde, the Full Moon in Capricorn and Jupiter enters Leo, back to back.

 

June 29-July 23 – Mercury Retrograde in Cancer

 

Mercury Stationing Retrograde invites you to pause and reflect on where you are, how you feel, what’s working and what needs attention. Does your mindset support growth and evolution or are you stuck in the past? This is a powerful time to realign your thinking so you can connect with people and tools that will support your future.

 

With Mercury in Cancer, everything feels personal and emotional, maybe relating to family, your history, needs, home and personal life. Let this week be a “time out” to ponder what can serve you. You can realign, revise or course correct once you are clear — and there’s no rush. Allow yourself the space to assess your present circumstances and what you envision going forward, which may change, so don’t become too attached to anything right now. Stay open and flexible.

 

June 29 – Full Moon in Capricorn @ 4:57pm PDT

 

The Full Moon in Capricorn usually highlights personal responsibility and discipline, goals and structures that last. It’s practical, methodical and wants to create something real. But this Full Moon is under pressure, being squared by Saturn and Neptune, which changes the story.

 

You may feel torn between what has always worked and what is trying to emerge. Saturn wants you to show up, while Neptune is dissolving density via old identities, constructs, plans and expectations that are no longer aligned. If something feels uncertain, avoid trying to force clarity, because you can’t. Let this Full Moon reveal what is solid, what is shifting, and what needs to be released so you can build on a stronger foundation.

 

Capricorn is also your Inner Authority. No matter what your worldly position, you must be able to trust yourself rather than needing approval, permission or agreement in order to make the right decisions for yourself. The Moon and Mercury in Cancer invite you to surround yourself with soul family, those who support your vision, your gifts, growth and evolution during this profound time of collective reconfiguration, as we create new paradigms for living.

 

Operating behind this Full Moon is a supportive Cradle configuration involving Pluto, Neptune, and Uranus that creates a fertile container of profound potential. As Jupiter enters Leo, it activates this matrix, setting the larger evolutionary design into motion. While our 3D world may feel chaotic, an underlying pattern of planetary grids is driving our collective evolution and holds intelligence far greater than we know. Very exciting.

 

June 30, ’26-Sept 27, ’27 – Jupiter in Leo

 

Jupiter in Cancer was about safety, nurturing and cocooning with family. In Leo, it’s time to come out of hiding and step into your heart-centered leadership, whether personally or professionally. You have something special to offer and it’s time to show up and shine your Light. Step into the spotlight on whatever level makes sense for you.

 

You were not given your gifts to keep them under wraps. Honor yourself and what you’re here to share, allowing for new creative expression to come through you with Jupiter amplifying Leo’s potential.

 

If you’ve been too serious, it’s time to recover your ability to play and to embody joy again. Your childlike essence is still within you, waiting for the invitation to come out, as Jupiter in Leo loves to party!

 

July 1 – Jupiter square Chiron

 

As Jupiter in Leo invites you to step into greater visibility, Self-expression and leadership, its opposition to Pluto intensifies the call to evolve. The pressure of this dynamic is funneled through Chiron in Taurus, revealing wounds around worthiness, money, security, values or the body still limit your willingness to fully show up and express who you are.

 

Any tension is revealing where healing is needed so you can embody your gifts rather than withholding them. If old inhibitions surface, explore: what would I create, offer, do and who would I become if I knew and embraced my true value? This is the path. Find the help you need so you can participate fully in your life as who you came here to be.

 

June 19-Sept 17 – Chiron in Taurus

 

This is about how you value your Self. Your worthiness influences your decisions, goals and determines what you will allow yourself to receive and what you ultimately believe is possible, along with your beliefs about abundance.

 

We have Chiron in Taurus for three months and then it returns on April 15, 2027 for seven years. Radical Uranus just completed its seven-year tour through Taurus, creating upheaval that Chiron will follow to heal and help you integrate.

 

Anything that feels challenging to your security or physical wellbeing is ripe for Chiron’s activation and medicine. How you handle what you experience is an inside job and that’s where the real healing takes place.

 

It’s important to be connected to people who support your growth, expansion and blossoming as we enter new energies later in July. You want people who will support and celebrate you as you shift into creative expressions where you can be even more of your Self in some new way. Stay tuned…

 

As life continues to unfold in unexpected ways, keep your heart open. You don’t need all the answers now. Trust what is being revealed and take good care of your Self.

 

As always, I am grateful for your presence on our journey together.

This week marks a significant doorway into the second half of the year. Chiron enters Taurus on June 19, followed by the Summer Solstice, setting the tone for the summer season ahead. We move from the mental hyper-focus on ideas, communications and networking into deeper awareness of your needs, feelings and what matters. Your thinking is guided through your heart. 

 

June 19-Sept 17 – Chiron in Taurus

 

After eight years of Chiron in Aries, asking you to embrace your will and Authority, Chiron dips into Taurus, that is primarily concerned with security, resources, beauty and the body. Comfort, food, nature and your values are the focus.

 

Underneath it all is how you value your Self. This hidden driver influences much, if not most of your life, as it affects your decisions, goals and determines what you will allow yourself to receive and what you ultimately believe is possible, along with your beliefs about abundance.

 

We get our first taste of Chiron in Taurus for three months and then it returns on April 15, 2027 for seven years. Radical Uranus just completed its seven year tour through Taurus, creating upheaval that Chiron will follow to heal and help you integrate. 

 

Anything that feels threatening to your security or physical wellbeing is ripe for Chiron’s activation — and medicine. How you handle what you experience is an inside job and that’s where the real healing takes place.

 

June 21 – Summer Solstice, Sun in Cancer (thru July 22)

 

The Summer Solstice occurs at 1:24am PDT as the Sun enters soft-shelled, sensitive Cancer, when feelings color (or sometimes override) your logical mind as you honor your roots. On the longest day of the year, the invitation is to pause, reflect and realign with your truth and intentions, as you stand in the light and in your Light. 

 

With this activity, your feelings can either work for or against you, depending on whether you utilize inner prompts as intuitive cues or you react emotionally to life events. You’ve been taught to problem-solve using your mind, but due to the manipulation of messaging and info, you can no longer trust available data, labels and sources as being true. And conditioned emotional patterns can undermine you by activating old beliefs and reactions.

 

Therefore, in order to be in your power, you must develop the ability to feel what’s right for you via your body (gut instinct) and/or your Higher Self (intuitive guidance). Nobody knows what’s right for YOU more than you do, but you have to be attuned to your Inner Guidance to receive an accurate message. 

 

The mind can play tricks on you and can be influenced, persuaded and exploited by people, algorithms and even AI, that know your fears and preferences. You are in charge of your “Yes” and “No,” which requires clarity and trusting your Self. If you don’t know how to do that, get help, and if you aren’t clear, wait until you are. 

 

Cancer is focused on home (inner and physical), family, tradition, nurturing and security. With the Sun, Mercury and Jupiter in Cancer you may happily cocoon with your loved ones or soul family, preferring nurturing emotional bonds to purely social or larger gatherings. 

 

This Solstice chart gives us a weather report for the next three months until the Autumn Equinox. The Cancer Sun is in harmony with Chiron in Taurus, indicating opportunities for healing, growth and stabilizing foundations (internal and external). Issues of scarcity and lack are top line for healing and integration, as these patterns were installed somewhere earlier in life and they aren’t serving you now.

 

The North Node in Pisces flows to the Cancer Sun and Chiron in Taurus, indicating that what emerges now and unfolds in the months ahead is guiding us, personally and collectively, toward our  highest good. This is fertile ground. Mercury and Jupiter are traveling in tandem, supporting expansion and high level possibility thinking. The goal is to create a life that nurtures and supports you, with love, care and the support of soul family.

 

June 25 – Venus trine Saturn

 

This harmonious dynamic supports commitment and creating meaningful agreements in relationships (personal and business) by valuing your Self while establishing healthy boundaries. The key is to be realistic while maintaining structural integrity, as a Venus-Saturn agreement is meant to last. 

 

I often suggest that my “Giver” clients become a little more high maintenance, because they lean so far toward the give, give, give side of the equation. With Venus in Leo, this is the perfect time to raise your standards and ask for what you want, if this applies to you. If you have to rationalize asking for what you want, it applies to you :))

 

You may turn a creative passion into work by monetizing it or take your creative gifts more seriously. All good. At its heart (pun intended), Venus trine Saturn is about honoring your value and acting accordingly, the way you want others to treat you.

 

It all begins with You.

 

June 25 – Sun square Neptune

 

You may feel extra sensitive and more emotional than usual, so be mindful of who you choose to be around. It is easy to be very suggestible in this receptive, no boundaries energy and your usual defenses may be down.

 

This is beautiful for channeling, creative pursuits, compassion and spiritual practices, but the 3D world can be harsh. You may enjoy music, a movie, a concert, time in nature, or a spiritual practice. Whatever connects you to your true essence will serve you. 

 

Be in flow. Allow for spaciousness and communion with anything peaceful, nourishing, or inspiring for you. 

 

If you fall into confusion, overwhelm or slip into worry, do something to change your energy. Take a walk, a salt bath or talk to a friend who uplifts you. Either relax or utilize it consciously, knowing that the fog will lift by tomorrow. This too shall pass.

 

This is the final 10 days pre-Mercury Retrograde on June 29. You will have plenty of time to course correct anything you’re beginning or working on over the next seven weeks at least. Which is perfect, as things will change again and again and again. 

 

Right now, you have the opportunity for a sweet, new beginning with beautiful support. Don’t push, don’t stress, slow down (a la Mercury preparing to turn around) and trust in Divine Timing. For you and the world. Choose the higher perspective to fuel your vitality and focus on what you want to create going forward. 

 

As life continues to unfold in unexpected ways, keep your heart open. Allow yourself to receive support when needed (it’s part of the New Era). You don’t need all the answers right now. Trust what is being revealed. And take extra good care of your Self.

 

The path forward may not be what you expected, but it may be exactly what you need.

 

As always, I am grateful for your presence on our journey together.

Although this week has a New Moon in Gemini, the featured player is really Venus, who will travel through a series of adjustments, revelations and course corrections. Your heart and values are having a mini-makeover this week.

June 12 – Uranus square the Nodes of Fate (exact)

Although you’ve been feeling called to move into more intuitive Being and less attached to old rigid ways of operating, today this aspect is exact. If you’re moving in the right direction, you will feel aligned with the changes and if you’re stuck in an old paradigm, you may be presented with unexpected shifts, redirections and opportunities for the next few weeks. This is one of the signature aspects of 2026, representing the pull between the familiar path and the future that beckons you forward.

June 12 – Mercury enters its Retrograde Shadow

What transpires between now and June 29 when Mercury Retrograde begins will be fertile ground for review and revision. This suggests that events that unfold over the next several weeks are part of a larger story. Pay attention to what begins now, because you will likely revisit, revise or gain greater clarity during the Retrograde cycle ahead. Rather than rushing for answers, stay curious.

June 13 – Venus square Chiron

With Venus and Chiron at the final degrees of Cancer and Aries, you may become aware of old vulnerabilities around love, belonging, safety, visibility or Self-worth. Yet this is arriving to reveal what still needs your compassion and tenderness. Find ways to get the support and care you need and don’t turn your back on your beautiful Self.

June 13-July 8 – Venus in Leo

As Venus enters Leo it reminds us that the heart was never meant to hide — it encourages our creativity and playfulness, it wants us to love generously and wholeheartedly. This is not a subtle Venus. It seeks warmth, affection, loyalty, romance, celebration and genuine appreciation. There is a desire to be seen, cherished, and valued — not for what you do, but for the magnificent Being that you are.

This brings up a simple but profound question: Who would you be and what would you do if you trusted your heart’s desires more than your fear? Don’t miss the opportunity to show up, show out and play!


June 14 – New Moon in Gemini @ 7:54pm PDT

We have a New Moon in the curious, social sign of Gemini and this year, it’s as if you have a new pair of glasses and a whole new perspective. The New Moon is a time for new beginnings, to take an action directed toward what you want to increase, create or cultivate. You are planting seeds that will come to fruition as the days unfold.

This New Moon opens a fresh cycle of possibilities through conversations, info, choices and new viewpoints. Be open to new ideas, as we are now fully in Info-palooza with AI and all the new methods of accessing, creating and communicating. Explore the options, gather info and enjoy what stimulates you. Like a gem, your mind is multi-faceted, so discover what can enhance and inform your life in new ways.

The Ruler of the New Moon is Mercury in Cancer, adding a more reflective, intuitive tone to Gemini’s naturally curious and social nature. Rather than seeking info through constant interaction, you may prefer to nurture your overwhelmed mind by processing what you learn privately. Reading, journaling, studying, researching or connecting from the comfort of home may be more appealing than being out in the world.

Mercury in Cancer absorbs information through feeling as much as thinking, encouraging you to trust your instincts as you sort through new ideas and possibilities.

Since Mercury will be Retrograde from June 29 through July 23, then remain in Cancer until August 9, this is an extended journey of reflection, review and emotional insight. Pay attention to what emerges now, as you may be revisiting these themes for weeks to come.

The following days bring a remarkable sequence of aspects, with all three transpersonal planets lined up to greet Venus, one by one, day after day.

June 15 – Venus sextile Uranus

This can bring unexpected opportunities, surprising connections or welcome developments. Maybe you decide to spice up your relationship, style, presentation or indulge a desire you normally wouldn’t. Be flexible. Sometimes blessings arrive through doors you never intended to open.

June 16 – Venus trine Neptune

Allow yourself to receive. You have the opportunity to soothe any rough edges and bathe in bliss —spiritually, creatively, romantically, or simply through moments of leisure, as you nourish yourself in dreams, imagination and receptivity.

June 17 – Venus opposes Pluto

Something is bound to arise today that is calling for honesty or greater transparency. The heart has been on quite a journey this week and now arrives at a moment of truth. Something may emerge that brings greater clarity about a relationship, a desire, a value or a financial matter.

Pluto directs attention beneath the surface, highlighting what is hidden and revealing what is genuine, what is unsustainable, and what can no longer be ignored. Avoid power struggles and confrontations today if you can help it.

As life continues to unfold in unexpected ways, keep your heart open. Stay curious. Allow yourself to receive new info, new experiences and new opportunities. You don’t need all the answers right now. Trust what is being revealed. And take extra good care of your Self.

The path forward may not be what you expected, but it may be exactly what you need.

As always, I am grateful for your presence on our journey together.
