June 1, 2024 — We enter June in the wake of significant Uranian breakthroughs that have taken place over the past couple months. Horizons are expanding throughout June, along with our minds. Truth is revealing, and magic and spirituality are infusing our hearts. As we begin the month, Jupiter is freshly in Gemini, trining volcanic Pluto. Bright light is illuminating hidden secrets and traumas, and we may now experience surprising clarity and mental ease. Even challenging and complex issues feel easier to grasp.

Clarity around relationships, creative projects, and values also arrives early in the month as Venus conjoins with the Sun while Mercury catches up with Jupiter. Our hearts and minds are deepening and brimming with love, new ideas, and transformation. The more we embrace truth, shadow work, and healing, the more joy is available to us. We may feel stronger than ever—sharper, more compassionate, inspired, and whole.

With a Gemini New Moon arriving on June 6, and many planets in the sign of the Twins, this is a period for increased socializing, reading, listening, and learning. As we process a swell of information, it’s important to meditate, connect with our bodies, and go into nature, clearing our channels for significant messages. We are becoming more sophisticated in how we think—more nuanced, malleable, and curious.

Saturn becomes activated mid-month, helping us to slow down and integrate the influx of energies, words, and information. We are figuring out what and who are important to us. With Mars squaring Pluto, we may notice eruptions of anger or conflict. Saturn implores us to tread carefully and use restraint.

A stellium forms in Cancer starting June 16, but first, it squares Neptune. We are now entering a mystical and dreamy period marked by enchantment, otherworldliness, and confusion. Simultaneously, Saturn and Capricorn become active, grounding us. We can still our minds and open to the abundant magic that’s available to us now—beyond words or concepts. Our dreams are becoming real. This is not the time to give up—but to think big and persevere. So much is changing. A bright expanse is on the horizon, and miraculous clearings are leading us to new realities.

june 2024 TRANSITS

JUPITER IN GEMINI TRINES PLUTO, VENUS CAZIMI

On June 2, Jupiter forms a supportive trine to Pluto in Aquarius. Mercury enters Gemini on the same day, emphasizing the trine. On June 4, the Sun conjoins Venus—forming a Venus Cazimi—bringing us significant clarity around relationships, justice, and beauty. This is a time of increased socializing, dialoguing, reading, and both generating and taking in ideas. We may find that our minds are deeper and more precise than usual, able to disseminate complicated material. Radical optimism is emerging, and we are feeling particularly strong internally as we clarify what we believe in and what and who matter to us most. We are also finding that we can communicate with greater power and ease. This is an excellent time for asking questions, writing, giving important speeches, or having difficult conversations that we’ve been putting off. We can pay close attention to anything that’s sparking love and inspiration during these transits.

GEMINI NEW MOON

A Gemini New Moon forms on June 6, and now a bevy of planets has stacked up in the sign of the Twins. So much communication is present, and our mental patterns, friendships, beliefs, and morals are resetting. We may want to carry a notebook and pen around with us, jotting down ideas that are streaming in. We can make sure we meditate, exercise, or go into nature, balancing our increased mental energies with stillness and intuition, giving ourselves space to settle after this influx of words.

VENUS + THE SUN SQUARE SATURN

Venus in Gemini squares Saturn in Pisces on June 8, and the Sun follows suit on June 9. Saturn is taking the reins, helping us wrangle our wild thoughts and recalibrate our relationships. After so much communication and mental activation, it’s time to slow down and apply discernment and careful review. After so much communication and mental activation, it’s time to slow down and apply discernment and careful review. We may take a break from parties and overstimulation, reflecting, working on, and integrating what we’ve already begun.

MARS SQUARES PLUTO

Mars enters Taurus on June 8, reaching an exact square to Pluto on June 11. Aggression and conflict are possible, so we may choose to continue laying low, transmuting and healing any triggers, pain, or challenging altercations that emerge.

MERCURY SQUARES SATURN, CONJOINS THE SUN

Mercury squares Saturn on June 12, and conjoins the Sun on June 14. Karmic challenges continue as we remain in a standstill, digesting news, exchanges, and thoughts while determining where we want to go next. Which next steps would be most effective and appropriate?

MERCURY, VENUS, + THE SUN SQUARE NEPTUNE, THEN MOVE INTO CANCER

Venus and Mercury move into Cancer on June 16 and 17, while the Sun makes his move on June 20. Just prior, Venus, Mercury, and the Sun squared Neptune in Pisces. Spirituality and magic abound, and reality may seem blurry or ungraspable. This is a time of powerful enchantment and spiritual connection. Profundity in love is possible, and we may find ourselves beginning meaningful new relationships or deepening existing ones. We may also experience grief or loss. Whatever happens, throughout this period it’s important to allow our emotions to rise, to cry or fall in love, not holding back whatever arises. Divine support is available to us—romantically, emotionally, and creatively. After so much thinking and talking, it’s time to connect with our hearts and feelings.

SUN IN CANCER/SOLSTICE

As the Sun moves into Cancer on June 20, the summer solstice arrives in the northern hemisphere, winter in the southern. This marks the turning of the light, with the days becoming either shorter or longer, depending on our hemisphere. Celebration energies are high, and we can gather with family and close friends, conjuring safety, nurturing, and protection while reflecting on who makes us feel safe and cared for.

CAPRICORN FULL MOON

On June 21, a Capricorn Full Moon forms, squaring Neptune. This emphasizes the magic of the Neptune squares and the coziness of the solstice. Our hearts are brimming with love, connecting with the people that we most belong to. Emotions are strong, so we may want to swim in the ocean, take a long bath, eat good food, and focus on self-care and -nourishment. If we’re feeling strong and grounded, we can offer our care to others—expressing sympathy, love, and devotion without our usual walls blocking us or making us self-conscious.

MERCURY TRINE SATURN

After a month filled with words, deeper feelings, and exaltation, Mercury trines Saturn on June 26, helping us reel it in with pragmatism. We can unpack all that we’ve experienced and take inventory of where we now stand and how we feel. It’s time for integration and preparation as we begin to make decisions and take steps toward the new chapters that have been opening up for us. Practicality and perseverance are helping us to make our grand visions attainable and real.

JUNE 2024 ASPIRATION

As the Sun reaches his apex, may our hearts warm and our horizons grow brighter. May we allow magic and auspiciousness to take our hand and lead us to unexpected places that finally feel like home.
