Lunations and Long-term Aspects

This month is somewhat quiet astrologically other than another Mercury retrograde gig which begins June 7 with Mercury throwing it into reverse in your polar sign, Cancer which will oppose the natal Sun of those born right around December 25 such as yours truly.  This is your 7th house of relationships which includes your significant other, close friends and relatives, business partners, business professionals, cliental, competitors and open enemies.  This suggests a time to rethink, reconsider or perhaps revisit old issues involving any individuals who fit this description for their place in your life.  As always remember to avoid purchasing any new mechanical or electronic devices during this spell which will last until June 30 since they are not likely to function properly and thus cause you all sorts of grief that you don't need with your busy schedule.

The aspects accompanying Mercury's station RX help color and define what message this three week period contains.  As always the general theme is to rethink, reexamine, edit, replan, redo or reconsider something with it not so favorable for moving forward with a new idea.  Activities that commence with Mercury RX are typically a false start and never come to fruition or if they do there are considerable delays before they do.  Furthermore, your sign ruler, Saturn, is also retrograde until July 20 and nudging you to restructure or rebuild something that relates to your 11th house of friends, groups, organizations, goals, hopes or wishes so you can use this internalized thought energy for that as well. 

Speaking of Saturn, he is at the eye of a yod, a.k.a. finger of God, which brings emphasis to this restructuring activity.  The base of the yod comprises the Sun in Gemini and Uranus in Aries and will tie into your natal Sun if your birthday is within a few days of January 8.  Uranus in your 4th house of home environment, memories, cultural roots, endings and new beginnings has probably brought a lot of disruptions and a hectic pace your way as well as possibly having too many things going on at once.  Gemini is your 6th house which includes your work, service, health and pets and the Sun will be highlighting that part of your life as he transits that sign.  The sextile with Uranus suggests an opportunity which could relate to a new endeavor which is going to involve connections while Saturn RX implies these may need to be reworked in some manner.  This suggests giving a lot of consideration to all the people in your life, your work and how they all fit together.  Eventually Mercury goes back into Gemini which is where he will station direct the end of the month, bringing the admonition to rethink something to your house of work and health. 

Mercury stations with a wide but viable trine with Neptune in Pisces, your 3rd house of thoughts, ideas, siblings, neighbors and local travel which brings these items to the table.  Neptune can inspire but he can also bring confusion or a general brain fog.  If you've been having trouble concentrating or perhaps find yourself daydreaming a lot lately it could well be due to this influence.  Hopefully the trine will bring insights and inspiration to help you sort things out.  The Moon is aspecting both Mercury and Neptune from Libra, your 10th house of career, public image, reputation and status which suggests how you feel about your career, which may be interfering with your relationships.  Cappies can be workaholics so give this some thought.  The general theme that seems to be forming from this time period appears to involve the people in your life and your ambitions, both of which are important but may be slightly out of balance.  Use this time to give that some thought.

Pluto is currently conjunct your natal Sun if your birthday is right around January 3.  He has already crossed it once back in the January - February timeframe and now he's trekking through there again.  His final pass will come this fall in the September - October timeframe after which he will move on.  This can be a heavy, difficult time when much of your life is likely to be transformed.  If you are having a hard time and would like more insights into what is going on I recommend the book "Alive and Well with Pluto" by Bil Tierney who does an excellent job explaining the dynamics of this transit.  I went through it a few years ago and it totally changed my life.  During that time I left a 20+ year career at NASA, sold my home and retired to my lakehouse over 250 miles away, going from being a manager living in a city to a self-employed astrologer living in the boonies.  Numerous relationships went kaput in the transition but I now see it was one of the best things I ever did.  So if you're currently experiencing this energy you can expect that some important and perhaps dramatic changes could come your way during this time.  It's been said (possibly in Tierney's book) that very few people die during a Pluto transit though you may want to.  Hang in there, Pluto is ultimately about eliminating things you no longer need, finding your authentic self and healing from the past.  Of course the more there is to heal the more difficult it's likely to be.

The Full Moon on June 12 is in nextdoor neighboring sign, Sagittarius, your 12th house of inspiration, spirituality, enlightenment, your subconscious mind, institutions, confinement, seclusion, hidden enemies and self-undoing.  A Full Moon typically brings an ending, culmination or shift to a new phase.  This could also relate to your work in some way or a particular project.  Jupiter, who is opposing your natal Sun if your birthday is right around January 13, is tied into this lunation from your 7th house of relationships.  He's been there for about a year which has probably expanded various relationships.  Some may be over-inflated or perhaps there simply may be too many people in your life, particularly if they're making demands on you.  It's also possible that some of them could be useful with regard to your work but you haven't involved them.  Considering Mercury and Saturn are already drawing attention to the people in your life and your work, this seems to be of a similar theme.  Venus is in Taurus, your 5th house of creativity, children, romance, self-expression, ego definition, entertainment and speculation which brings a lot of favorable energy to that part of your life.  She is opposing Saturn, however, suggesting the need to balance whatever is going on in this part of your life with your goals and friends.

The New Moon on June 27 is in Cancer, that 7th house of relationships again, suggesting something new.  If your birthday is right around December 27 it opposes your natal Sun and could have a stronger influence.  Once again the relationship issue is being emphasized.  Mercury is still retrograde and in your 6th house of work, implying reworking something.  For me it's going to be spent editing and rewriting one of my novels.  Venus is in the 6th now as well, but is squaring Neptune so there could be some difficulty concentrating, getting focused or being realistic.  Again juggling relationships with work and career seem to be what this time period is saying.  Think about your priorities, which ones may be getting more attention than they deserve, and whether some rescheduling may be in order.  Then be ready to hit to "go" button on the 30th when Mercury stations direct.
