Cancer (June 21 – July 22):

Rest up, Cancer, because we’re in the calm before the storm. As a water sign, you're known for your emotional depth and sensitivity. You’re in transition this month, between the end of one solar year and the start of another. The Gemini New Moon activates your sector of hidden things, allowing you to explore your subconscious mind and evolve from one consciousness to another. There’s a tenderness to this time that you may not want to share with others. Embrace your need for self-care, a trait that is often associated with your zodiac sign.

Messenger Mercury and harmonious Venus enter your sign on June 16, allowing you to open your heart to more authentic communication. This celestial meeting helps you open your heart and express yourself with kindness and ease. Before the start of your solar season and the solstice begins on June 20, make your truth known. 

Venus sextiles Mars on June 28, permitting you to follow your heart’s desires. Venus in Gemini lends a certain elegance, especially in your communications with friends, that complements the grounded drive of Mars in Taurus. Now is the time to bring in collaborators and co-conspirators. 

The Capricorn Full Moon on June 21 infuses the end of the month with sentimentality in your relationships. The Full Moon offers us a time of culmination and completion, and the Capricorn Full Moon is particularly significant as it marks the halfway point of your solar year. Your sensitivity is one of your greatest strengths, but you’re learning to differentiate between the waves that keep you stuck in the riptide and those that carry you to new shores. Love can inspire joy. Let love lead the way.

Saturn stations retrograde on June 29, bringing up tensions between expanding your worldview and finding yourself wanting to build walls. You’ve felt this before, but now, with more life experience under your belt, you’re getting the chance to change the conclusions you’ve come to. Where is your sweet spot?
