June 6 – We open the week with Venus in sensual, grounded Taurus through  July 4, which is a welcome addition of warm, peaceful energy that cultivates  resources and enjoys pleasure. We also approaching a Full Moon in Sagittarius  that contains lively aspects, but underneath it holds the greater potential for  restructuring your life that is just beginning and will unfold over the next several  years. Stay tuned… 

June 8 – Mercury is on the move for the next two days, aspecting three planets  and changing signs. In chronological order: 

Mercury conjunct Jupiter. Just before these two planets depart Gemini, they meet  in a burst of energy with big ideas, announcements, communications, info gathering and disseminating. On a personal level, you can make smart plans,  schedule and sign contracts with all the details involved. You may receive good  news or feel optimistic, which inspires you to stretch beyond your usual  limitations to envision more expansive possibilities than you would normally  entertain (a great exercise to play with). 

Mercury in Cancer – June 8-26. The planet of info and communication becomes  more introspective and sensitive, seeking emotional connections rather than  making small talk or having superficial conversations. Cancer focuses on family  (origin or family of choice), the past, your lineage, traditions, nurturing, your  needs, feelings, home life and personal roots. These topics will be on the menu  as you reflect on the present and the past from your current, Evolving Self.  

June 9 – There are three aspects and one planet changing its sign today – and it’s  a lot to deal with. Ground yourself and do your favorite spiritual practices to start  the day. Decide that you will remain centered, no matter what. 

Mercury square Saturn. Shortly after Mercury enters emotional Cancer it squares  Saturn in fiery Aries, which creates a conflict via thoughts, words, intentions and  actions. Expect obstacles, limitations, delays or a reality that you’ll be confronted with  that may not be easy, but will offer you a growing edge in this changing landscape.  Consider your priorities and honor your Inner Authority (trust your Self) when making  decisions on your path forward. 

Mercury square Neptune. This aspect occurs later in the day, but because Saturn  and Neptune are together, they present as one paradoxical energy. Neptune is  your dreams, higher consciousness and imagination – and Saturn is reality,  limitations and structure. 

With Saturn-Neptune, Mercury square Neptune can bring worry, disillusionment,  disappointment, losing energy (depression), addictions (food, TV, shopping). I  suggest creative expression (art, music, writing), spiritual practices or being in  nature to restore your balance as a remedy if you lose your vision or steam.  

Venus square Pluto. This brings up issues around your values (your Self, $$,  desires, relationships) and issues around power. Are you giving away your power  – and if so, to what or whom? You may discover hidden agendas, obsessions,  you may be in a passionate relationship that isn’t good for you, but you can’t  break away.  

This can always create a breakthrough if you are willing to introspect and seek  the origin of your shadowy behavior. Conflicts around $$, addictions, jealousy  and control/manipulation are triggers with Venus-Pluto, but if you go deeper to  seek the real cause, the potential for transformation is available. The choice is  yours and you might want to get support for this should you choose to go there.  

Jupiter in Cancer – June 9, 2025 – July 2026. Jupiter is exalted in Cancer, when  Higher Truth is connected to care, family, feelings, belonging and emotional  intelligence. With Jupiter in Cancer, you are seeking safety, security and what  feels good. Jupiter rules beliefs, the meaning of life, other cultures, higher  education, spirituality, religion, morals, ethics, politics and social causes (and so  much more!). Prepare to expand in ways that feel safe and nurturing for best  results. Your feelings will let you know if you’re on the right track… 

June 10 – Mars trine Chiron. Consider your life direction, contemplate your gifts  and talents and where they can be expressed. You may need healing or a course  correction or you may have already done your work. Either way, what is the next  vision you have for your Self? 

June 11 – Full Moon in Sagittarius at 12:44am PDT, as things come to light. The  Sun in Gemini is an info-gathering vortex, ready to engage and communicate – mentally flexible and nimble, open to new ideas. The willingness and ability to  shift is the name of the game. 

The optimistic Full Moon in Sagittarius seeks inspiration and meaning, the big  picture that aligns with your Higher Truth and ideals. Where are you going and  what is your vision? Either you are already in action, ready to pursue a vision or  maybe you feel restless with the status quo, knowing that something needs to  change. Sagittarius is the Truthteller – be honest with yourself about where you  are and what you want.

Moon in Sagittarius trine Mars in Leo. This provides the impetus to take action, to  do something with enthusiasm and passion. A great spark to get you going and  to inspire you! Open to learning, growing and expanding your beliefs. Attachment  to the status quo will not serve you, so be willing to consider alternative,  innovative options and avenues. 

Jupiter in Cancer. Invite an expanded vision of possibilities that await you and  feel into the big picture of where you’re meant to be going. Here’s a tip for Jupiter  in Cancer: now it’s time to access your truth from within your body, rather than  from your mind (the center of programming). Sometimes, the body has a different  answer than the mind will give you. See if you can feel a “yes” or “no” from within  your body. More to come about this… 

Coming up in another week is the Jupiter-Saturn square, which matters b/c  Jupiter Rules this Full Moon in Sagittarius and it just arrived in Cancer – and  Saturn just arrived in Aries. This square indicates a major reorganization that will  take place over the next few years, leading you to new projects and territory. So  even though there’s high energy aspects in this Full Moon that indicate  immediate actions, there is also a larger plan at work beneath the surface that  will soon begin to show. 

You will feel we’re turning a corner as we move through this very exciting week.  The promise of what’s to come will begin to emerge in ways that offer hope,  inspiration and expansion. Connect to what lifts you up.  

The best is yet to come and you are needed in creating the fabric of our new  world.  

I am grateful for your presence on our journey together. �

We enter June with two benefic planets about to change signs, as we continue to acclimate to Saturn in Aries traveling with Neptune in Aries until they conjoin in Feb ’26.

Last week was active with the New Moon in Gemini and Mercury making connections all over, but this week is quieter, allowing for the integration of any updates to your evolving consciousness and personal operating system.

With Saturn at 0º and Neptune at 1º Aries, life is going to speed up and the goal is to stay engaged without becoming discouraged or overwhelmed, as you are here to evolve. Recognize that everything you learn creates new neural pathways and expands your consciousness.

Contemplate where you are, what you want to create or experience and what kind of life you want to live. If you are confused about your next steps or resistant to change, seek a perspective from someone who offers you insights and inspiration, focus on your heart’s desires or what you want to contribute to the world for clues. Or maybe you need help with the “how.”

0º Aries is the Beginning and Saturn is structure, strategy and decisions. Saturn does the work. Aries is action, initiating the potential within you (or around you) to create something. Aries wants to jump in; Saturn demands a plan, as it’s methodical, cautious, and a reality check. How can you make your dream/goal real and what’s the next step? This is the path to creating mastery with actions, step by step.

Neptune arrived in Aries in March, which invited you to pursue a dream – or perhaps you’ve discovered the seed of a dream within you. Neptune is infinite potential, but Aries is ready to go – and through Saturn, you can bring your dream into form. Neptune can soften Saturn’s hard edges – or it can create illusions, pipe dreams, idealizing teachers or leaders.

Discernment is required to differentiate b/t fantasy, deception and viable possibilities. Check the motives of whomever you’re dealing with. Neptune can dissolve boundaries and old paradigms, downloading fresh solutions, shifting the terrain; it can activate your highest potential. Stay tuned and know that whenever you leave your comfort zone, you are being led to a new world, personally and/or globally.

This is the first wave of Saturn and Neptune in Aries. Saturn retrogrades into Pisces from Sept ’25 until mid-Feb ’26. Neptune backs into Pisces in late Oct ’25 until late Jan ’26.

By the time they both revisit Pisces in the Fall, you’ll be in a different place than you are now and so will the world. Be Here Now, as you attune to your evolving Self and explore what’s emerging from within You and around you..

June 1 – Venus conjunct Chiron. You may experience a heart healing, a heart wound may be triggered or you feel compassion – for your Self and others. It all begins with You. Take good care of your heart and keep in mind that everyone is doing the best they can, even when it’s not so good. Drop the judgment and see through the eyes of Love.

June 4 – Venus sextile Jupiter. Venus in the final degrees of Aries is pursuing passion and its desires – and Jupiter in the final degrees of Gemini is the social butterfly and networker, talking with everybody! Venus and Jupiter are both changing signs soon, moving from fire and air into earth and water, which will be more grounded, introverted and receptive.

There’s plenty of fiery action, flirtation, fun and flexibility today and your enjoyment or blessings can spring from a multitude of sources or spaces when seeking pleasure, amusement and stimulation. Go for it and enjoy!

June 5 – Mercury sextile Mars. This is powerful for making decisions, networking, making a pitch, speaking your mind, communicating with clarity, and excellent for sales. This is motivational speaking or writing energy. It creates ambition and drive to get things done and make connections. Use it well!

June 6 – Venus in Taurus. Venus moves into her domicile (home sign) of Taurus, craving comfort, delicious food, the sensuality of soft fabrics, a warm bath, physical touch, fresh flowers, nature, loyalty and what’s familiar.

You will feel the shift in energy as Venus in Taurus is grounded, slow and drawn to what is tangible, real and often old school. If something is wonderful, why rush? Luxuriate, sit in the garden, eat chocolate and treat yourself as the Divine Being that you are!

Enjoy this fertile week of creative potential that offers you the space to discover buried treasure within you, download nonlinear intentions, and allow for scenic detours to see what emerges.

Make connections, ask questions, explore new areas as a spiritual practice. Ask for your next right steps to be clear – and trust your Inner Guidance.

You are important, as we are ALL part of creating the fabric of our new world.

I am grateful for your presence on our journey together. 🌷

We are collectively in a quantum leap with Pluto in Aquarius, Neptune in Aries, and Saturn will join Neptune in Aries on Sunday, which is the next piece of the cosmic puzzle that is unfolding. We are witnesses and participants simultaneously, playing dual roles.

May 24 – Sun trine Pluto. This can give you stamina, it’s good for dealing with those in positions of power, and it’s helpful for tasks that require focus, depth, intuition and strength. Your magnetism can make a lasting impression on others – and your job is to stay in integrity when you are involved in persuasion, influence and affecting others with what you are creating. Be responsible for the energy you bring into the spaces you occupy and for who you’re dealing with.

Mercury is a busy bee this week, making five aspects (connections to other planets) and all are affecting your thinking, communication, perspective, connections and mindset, as you affect the others you touch – and we ALL contribute to the consciousness on the planet. How about social media and ChatGPT? Mercury is a quick, versatile, chatty connector and with the barrage of info upon us these days, it’s important to utilize Mercury productively to make it work FOR you, rather than to allow it to wear you down.

May 24 – Mercury conjunct Uranus. Uranus is the higher octave of mental Mercury and it can be genius, innovative ideas, psychic development, ETs – and this duo is prime time for problem solving, out of the box thinking and brainstorming. It can also bring unexpected messages, meetings, a change of mind, focus or elevated perspective. It’s a gift and you can use this to find alternative possibilities to stuck energy that feels more authentic for you. Uranus is your Authentic Self, so ask yourself, “What do I really want?”

May 25 – Sept ‘2025, mid-Feb ‘2026 – mid-April ‘2028. Saturn in Aries. Methodical Saturn leaves spiritual Pisces at the final degree of the zodiac, where you’ve had some endings – maybe major endings. Now it enters Aries, at 0º degrees of the zodiac – the World Axis (or World Point), that’s the beginning of The Beginning.

You have all summer with Saturn in Aries as it goes to almost 2º of Saturn and then it will back into Pisces in Sept for one final round until mid-Feb ‘2026. Saturn, Neptune and Uranus will move forward into radical new energy – and then back up for one final time into the old again. That’s 2025 and the beginning of 2026, one foot forward and one foot back for a last look around and cleanup. The new energy is much faster than the old, so fasten your seatbelt, but the opportunities are great, too. There’s something waiting for you.

So what does Saturn in Aries look like? It can have various manifestations, but let’s break down Saturn and Aries. Aries lives in the “now,” wants to be first, is impulsive, enthusiastic, energetic and travels solo. Get out of my way. Hot, fiery, a pioneer, maverick, warrior. Hot to trot, ready to go!

Saturn is security-oriented – cautious, thoughtful, with the long term in mind, will delay gratification to build something lasting, is responsible, ambitious, achievement-oriented, the elder, brings reality checks, rules time, standards and loves predictability, The Lord of Karma (you get back what you put in), The Inner Guru, Great Teacher (lessons). It is serious and rules commitment – often the boss, organizer or manager and it avoids risks. Saturn is your Inner Authority (trusting your Self) – that you’ll land on your feet, find a way and when you have an intention, you know that it is true for YOU.

Now put them together: Saturn can tame the Aries fire by forcing slowdowns, delays, creating obstacles so Aries can’t just take off without a plan. If Aries is fire, Saturn can be the wet blanket to put it out – or it can be the fire pit (container). It can be a youth or someone unprepared with heavy responsibilities placed on them – or a high energy, wild elder. You may be seeking security and find yourself in riskier situations than you expected. Aries is self-centered – it wants what it wants and Saturn won’t just indulge the ego. So decisions (Saturn) will be made about what you want, how you’re going to make it happen with integrity (Lord of Karma…).

Always seek the highest expression of both planets – where can you be passionate, enthusiastic and energetic while taking a realistic approach with a plan or clear next steps? Saturn can play it so safe, you never have much fun or move very far from home base. Aries can help Saturn stretch and take a little more risk than usual to have a new experience.

Try other combos of the qualities that involves the fire of Aries with the responsibility of Saturn. And – a new beginning, rather than more of what you’ve done before. You decide what that means for you – or get feedback if this is a blind spot for you. The possibilities are endless, but I trust that you’ll be led to what’s right for you if you are curious, open and trust yourself.

May 25-June 8. Mercury in Gemini. This is one of the two home signs of Mercury (Virgo is the other). Here it can express itself fully – flexible, chatty, info-seeking and sharing, connecting, light, airy, multi-tasking, social, networking. Feed your mind and social life with community that stimulates you and allows you to be seen, heard, connect and interact with others that feels good.

May 25 – Mercury sextile Saturn. Making dates, agreements, commitments, schedules, signing contracts, launching projects. It’s ideas and data with a structured plan that stabilizes it and brings it into form. A great day for business and decisions that you can count on as long as they are realistic. (Saturn just came into Aries today, so be mindful). Think everything through carefully.

May 26 – Memorial Day.

Mercury sextile Neptune. Creative thinking, artistic endeavors, enjoying music, art, creative writing, journaling, channeling, intuitive connections, spiritual counseling, spiritual practices, leisure or rest.

May 26 – New Moon in Gemini @ 8:02pm PDT. The New Moon in Gemini is the time for a new beginning and taking actions to activate your intentions. Write your New Moon Intentions in present time beginning with, “I will,” “I create,” “I have,” “I Am.” Journal for clarity and creativity to see what comes through if you feel stuck. There are new ideas just waiting for you discover them within you!

This New Moon in Gemini has Mercury in Gemini conjunct the Sun and Moon (lots of thinking, talking and connecting), Mercury trines Pluto (deep thinking) and Saturn-Neptune in Aries sextile Mercury, Sun, Moon in Gemini (major New Beginning energy). Remember, Saturn in Aries is on the World Axis, meaning a major beginning. What is that for you? If you’re swimming in your mind with no conclusions, go higher (journaling, movement, energetic or spiritual practices can open portals to higher consciousness and downloads).

Is there a conversation you need to have, a connection you’ve avoided, a bike ride you’ve been dreaming of, a book you want to read, or a class you want to take? Are you ready to create or update your website or is there info you need to obtain in order to make a decision? Are you ready to sign a contract or enter into an agreement? Do you need admin backup? Think about it (a Gemini activity) and take an action that will get the word out or attract what you need. Help yourself! 

The New Moon trines Pluto, offering access to deep recesses within you that can reveal previously hidden gifts, talents, desires and aspects of Self if you go in there. If you have a dream or idea, this is an important time to take action to begin (between now and through early June). Even baby steps count – just begin. Don’t sell yourself short and get caught in fear-based overthinking that keeps you in confusion. Get a second opinion from a trusted advisor or mentor or utilize processes that bring you clarity.

May 29 – Mercury Cazimi the Sun. You have access to new info, ideas, clarity and illumination that moves you forward with wisdom and insight. Look for connections, conversations, and create space to go within for your own inner guidance and downloads. You are percolating! Also helpful for decisions, good for dealing with or making a tech purchase.

Although this is a busy week, it’s a supportive week filled with creative potential. All you have to do is get in the game! Please be curious about your Self and your life. Be willing to move beyond what’s familiar and trust that if it’s in your consciousness, there’s something there for You!

Your thoughts and actions (or non-actions) matter, as we are ALL part of creating the fabric of our new world.

You are important and I am grateful for your presence on our journey together. 🌷

We are on the move as Mercury, Venus and Mars are all flying free beyond their Retrograde shadows, with Saturn, Uranus and Neptune in virgin territory that shifts the playing field – and it will continue. We’re simultaneously creating anew, while continuing to close out old structures and paradigms that no longer serve us. It’s quite a balancing act, determined by your personal planetary setup and how you are interacting with the forces at play (or work :)) in your life.

May 17 – Sun conjunct Uranus. This activates your Authentic Self, as Uranus wants to liberate you from constraints that hide, limit or suppress your inner free spirit. You may feel restless and step out of the box, walk on the wild side or make a sudden change that shocks others. Or you may experience an innovative download that sparks a new opening, a genius idea or a spontaneous prompt to do something you wouldn’t ordinarily try. The point is recalibrating energetically by expressing and aligning with your authenticity, following your own, unique path to the next level. 

May 17/18 – Mercury square Mars. Mercury has something to say and squaring Mars it can be forceful, angry, abrupt, pushy, or very direct. Things just pop out without a filter in this reactive energy – and Sun-Uranus excitability can feed your triggers, causing you to spill your emotional guts or blurt out what you’ve been holding in. This can spur you to finally speak up about something you’ve been reluctant to say.

Bite your tongue to avoid burning bridges – or maybe you need to vent and deal with the fallout afterwards. You may hear harsh words from another and if so, they may dump emotional baggage on you that’s been building. Rational minds can discuss when tempers are lowered and you both calm down which can potentially lead to meeting on a higher, more honest level if the parties involved desire it – and want to grow.

All in all, May 17 can be a real Liberation Day if you utilize the energy to break out of a rut or get unstuck in some way. I wish that for you and us all!

May 18 – Jupiter sextile Chiron. A good day for healing, gaining a new perspective or understanding that empowers and elevates you. You may find a teacher, healer or teaching that guides you forward and helps you release a pattern – or you may elevate your own skills as a healer, teacher or helper. Seek wisdom and be open to expanding your vision in order to embrace our evolving world and your place in it.

May 18 – Jupiter square the Nodes of Fate (Destiny). Jupiter is sitting between the Nodes – the future (North Node in Pisces) and the past (South Node in Virgo), as we’re invited to release our attachment to old beliefs, paradigms, operating systems and ways of being (perfectionism, having to know all the details) to adopt a new vision that is more nonlinear with faith in the unseen and unknown. Loosen your grip on the way you’ve always done things and relax, knowing that it’s time to open and trust that you are being led to the right people, places and things for your Highest Good.

May 20 – Sun sextile Saturn. Saturn is at 29º Pisces, finalizing completions and taking actions to ensure your security and stability in the future. This is about responsibility – actions taken now that go to discipline, investing, delayed gratification and process. One day at a time you can upgrade your health, well being, money and time management, work or anything you want to create, develop or increase for your benefit in the long term. Think: Adulting – and remember, Saturn is your friend if you do the work :))

May 20 – Sun in Gemini. This is a palpable shift as the Sun leaves practical, grounded Taurus to enter mutable Gemini, adept at changing with the wind. Gemini can feel like a butterfly flitting from one conversation, object of interest or stimulating activity to the next – social, light and flexible, and the more the merrier! One thing at a time is boring for multi-tasking Gemini. All mental processes are highlighted: writing, speaking, thinking, social media, classes and community activities, so allow yourself to be in the flow with this friendly, social, stimulating energy. Make the most of your curiosity by exploring what interests you and enjoy the pursuit. 

May 22 – Venus trine Mars. This is a joyful duo in harmony, what you love and how to get it. This can go to play, romance, pleasure and creative connections; beautiful energy indicating a display of affection, joy or  collaboration. The call is to embrace your heart’s desires and pursue what makes your heart sing!

May 22 – Sun sextile Neptune. Nonlinear Neptune creates a soft, gentle energy that enhances creativity, imagination, spiritual practices, and withdrawal to decompress or for restoration. Choose your preferred experience by honoring how you feel and what your intuitive guidance is calling for. 

Don’t push, rather, choose movement that flows around obstacles and harmonizes with your environment. Allow yourself the gift of receiving and relaxation – and remember that nature feeds “yin” energy. Grounding rewires your electrical system (barefoot on earth or sand) and even the sound of the ocean (real or audio) entrains your brainwaves into a tranquil state. Ahhh…

This beautiful week is a gift, calling for a check-in with your Inner Self. What do you need to release, to explore, to express and who do you want to connect with? Be creative as you approach each day with beginner’s mind, open to new experiences that can realign and evolve your world without it feeling so hard. Enjoyable productivity. What an intention.

Love your Self, ask for help when you need it and see who shows up and what unfolds. 

I am grateful for your presence on our journey together. 🌷
