Get ready for a deep dive into your emotions as the planets Venus and Mercury enter the sign of Cancer on June 17. Cosmically, it will be a crucial time to reflect on your feelings about love and how secure you feel in this department. Our emotions will drive our overall communication style over the next few weeks. As the communication planet Mercury faces Neptune in intensity on this day, your message may get lost in translation. It's not a time to be logical like Dr. Spock, but it will be a moment to assess your needs by connecting with your heart or listening more intently to others — and your intuition. Are your values in alignment? Allow your message to take the back seat for now. Later this week, you will make sense of your next move. Reflect.
Remember to listen more than react.
Vesta, the asteroid that embodies dedication and inner belief, will enter the sign of Leo on June 19. This celestial event presents an opportunity to indulge in your creativity and reignite the fire that involves your aspiration. Trust in your vision, and the Universe will guide your next steps.
The Summer Solstice begins on June 20, and with the Sun entering Cancer, our focus will be building solid foundations and catering to home and family. As it's the start of a water season, it will also infuse us with the need to incorporate self-care to cater to our emotional well-being. The Sun square Neptune event on this day could make you feel like you are in a daze or limbo. Neptune grants the space to become more imaginative and creative. Just be and try not to decipher or "fix" things beyond your control. Book a day to go to the beach, watch a rom-com movie, or host a potluck with your loved ones to nourish your soul.
As we conclude this momentous week, we will meet with the first full moon in Capricorn on June 21. This full moon will enable us to bravely face the unresolved regarding our structures with love and security. As this lunation faces Venus in opposition, it will help you pinpoint the reality regarding your direction involving your relationships. Facing the past and accepting your present situation will lead to healing possibilities. The great news is that Mercury will be in a supportive position with Mars, the planet of action. Honest dialogue exchanges will lead to breakthroughs and a pathway to remodel your future decisions.
