On June 24th, at 2:40pm EDT, the Moon opposes the Sun in 3.5 degrees of Capricorn. This Full Moon also marks the end of Eclipse season. Yay! We have received our consciousness upgrades and can now move forward with any intentions we set mid-June. For all my Members: If you’d like to learn more about this month’s Full Moon, click here to watch my video
This Full Moon has heightened effects on us for many reasons: first, it is a “SuperFull Moon” (i.e. the Moon is at its closest distance to the Earth).
Secondly, lots of planets are involved in this Super Full Moon chart — Saturn, Neptune, Jupiter, Mercury, Chiron, Uranus, and Mars — and all play an important role, so buckle up!
We have three planets that are stationing (and thus exalted) at the time of this Full Moon — Neptune, Jupiter and Mercury — indicating that something is in our face and demands our awareness; we must pay attention to whatever comes up in connection with those energies.
In addition, we have a fixed T-Square and a Grand Fire Trine in this Full Moon chart, as well as four oppositions, all positively aspected by one of those planets mentioned above (Saturn, Jupiter, Neptune, Chiron and Mars). More details in a moment…
First, let’s take a look at the polarities involved in this Full Moon: The Moon in practical, accomplishment-oriented Capricorn opposes the Sun in protective, feeling-oriented Cancer.
We have a heightened sense that something must be brought into balance and reintegrated; the balance in question is between the connection we have to our feelings and emotional needs, plus our ability to feel emotionally connected to others (symbolized by Cancer), versus our outer obligations or material, practical goals out there in the world (Capricorn).
It’s important to realize that our long-term goals need our attention — and that they could be the very thing that might bring the fulfillment and inner stability we seek. A realistic approach will work best here!
Ask yourself: Where might the balance point be between the demands of my inner and outer life? If I listened 5% more closely to my feelings, my body, and my intuition, might I be able to find that balance point more quickly?
Capricorn seeks to develop an internalized sense of authority and responsibility. This Full Moon is therefore asking us to look closely at how we balance taking care of ourselves (Cancer), versus how we want to contribute to the world at large (Capricorn) — in other words, where we have reached our limit, and where we need to set some priorities.
Ask yourself: What importance does nourishment have in my life? Do I know when I feel nourished? Physically? Emotionally? Spiritually? Mentally? Do I feel a connection with all of life? What’s keeping me separate, limited, or in fear? Could I be honest about that? And once I have acknowledged what that might be, could I decide to let it go, just for right now?
Any Full Moon also has us look more closely at the denser vibrations or shadow components of the energies involved. With Cancer, this is our ability to…

Reorganized in a More Sustainable Way
This week’s headline items: the second Saturn/Uranus Square of the year becomes exact on Monday early evening; Mercury starts to station again (i.e. it slows down) on Wednesday; the first Quarter Moon in Virgo becomes exact on Thursday late evening; Jupiter’s Station intensifies on Friday and Neptune’s Station does likewise on Saturday!
On Sunday late morning, Jupiter comes to a halt in Pisces (starting its 4-months Retrograde phase); in the late evening, the Sun changes signs from Gemini to Cancer (this also marks the Summer Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere).
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday early afternoon (for a little over 9.5 hours), Thursday late evening (for 5 hours), and Sunday morning (for a little over an hour).
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, June 14th:
Monday, the Moon remains in fun and attention-loving Leo all day. It will journey there until Tuesday late evening. We may lack objectivity and struggle with backing down or compromising. We all love to be admired — or at the very least acknowledged — for our greatness 🙂
So hand out some compliments — let people know how proud you are of them, tell them how much you love them. Come from the heart in this and all other things… be honest and authentic, as best you can. Fun, games and romance are a big part of this energy as well. You might also enjoy spending time with little ones.
If there are no “outer children” around, how about getting in touch with your “inner child” — it’s definitely easier for the next two-and-a-half days. What are you most grateful for today? What would be heaps and heaps of fun? What would be so much fun, you let out a tiny squeak, just thinking of it?
Monday early evening, the second Saturn/Uranus Square of the year becomes exact, at 6:01pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from January 18th on, it will remain strong until July 18th (due to Saturn’s Retrograde phase that began in May).
The first Square between these two planets was exact on Feb.17th. Think back to that time and ask yourself: What did I learn since January about myself, others, or society as a whole, in connection with spaciousness? How about when it comes to Freedom? Differences? Allowing myself to feel uncomfortable?
This aspect asks us to stretch a little or a lot (individually and collectively). We can’t expect much of anything during this time… expect the unexpected!
Future visions and humanitarian causes — especially those connected to like-minded people — are quite likely to experience disruption, calling for flexibility and creative solutions.
During this transit, we feel a great need to make progress, as we feel quite restless — maybe even anxious — but if we’re unclear on what is in our best interest, we might focus on things that don’t serve us in the long run.
This aspect tells us that if we redefine our need to fit in and belong, we can find a more authentic connection with our own values; we are also invited to stay detached in our social dealing with others — honoring our own individuality without making anyone else wrong for being different or “themselves”.
Ask yourself: Are other people’s choices and preferences really about me (in other words, do I need to take them personally)? Could I give the “choosing” of other people the space that it needs, so I can honor what’s important to me, without taking things personally?
What might become possible if I expressed myself fully, knowing that others may have a different opinion to me, and that’s ok? How might that impact my current communities (whether physical or online)?
Saturn in Aquarius wants us to focus on realistic progress with our technologies, inventions, and long-term visions for the collective. While in Taurus, Uranus, on the other hand, prods us to get back to the basics — to what really matters, what is sustainable (for the whole planet), and what is best for all living beings.
Given this, ask yourself: What does my body require before I can think about connecting with others? Where am I feeling a need for more spaciousness? What does my physical reality require before I can think about what to create for the future? Where do I need to “think out of the box”?
Could I give myself permission to hold some space for things to reorganize themselves physically? How about mentally? Could I allow for this to happen slowly? Without needing to rush into anything? Without pushing others or myself?
Keep in mind that things sometimes need to break down in order for them to be reorganized in a more sustainable way. Individually, this can be related to the area of life in your birth chart that Saturn and Uranus are currently transiting through; collectively, it can show up in sudden shifts and changes in our social or financial structures (or in physical shifts in the Earth’s structure).
If you had to sum this year up with one word, “unexpected” would be a great one to pick — and as best as you can, embrace rather than fear this — see it as opening possibilities for tremendous progress, long-term changes in social interactions, and more beneficial relationships to the planet, and to our physical and material world.
Remember, this only feels uncomfortable because it’s new, different, unfamiliar. Could you allow yourself to be 5% more comfortable with being uncomfortable?
If you would like to learn how the Saturn/Uranus Squares in Aquarius/Taurus will impact you personally throughout 2021, feel free to watch my webinar on the subject — we looked at our own birth charts to see what the impact might be to us personally.
To purchase this webinar, click here (if you have already seen this webinar, feel free to rewatch it to best align with the current energies. Active Star Members received the recording of this webinar on February 26th).
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 10-16 degrees of Aquarius, Taurus, Leo, or Scorpio? If so, you will feel this aspect quite strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Aquarius or Capricorn (the Saturn rules Capricorn; Uranus rules Aquarius).
Monday evening, a somewhat challenging Mars/Jupiter aspect becomes exact at 8:39pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week Friday (June 11th) on, it will remain strong until this week Thursday evening. We feel uneasy about something, sort of awkward — and we need to make adjustments — first though, we must develop an inner awareness of what exactly needs adjusting.
We come to realize that we might have become overly enthusiastic and optimistic about life; what’s more, our drive for inner spiritual expansion — in other words, for connecting from an intuitive place and for going within to experience spiritual growth — is actually leaving us feeling drained, and frustrated. At the same time, we harbor a strong desire to connect with our inner child, and have some fun creating and playing.
It will help us manage both these energies if we look more closely at how we use our own energy: simply put, are we in tune with our heart? Our physical and intuitive bodies? Could I be outgoing and still find time for spiritual growth?
It’s also worthwhile to examine how our personal belief systems impact our connection to our “Higher Self”. Can we stay open to new spiritual perspectives and what they offer us? And perhaps toward our desire for more expansion of the heart-energies internally and externally?
Ignoring conflict will not serve us now, nor will being overly naive or sensitive; as best as you can, slow down and stay tuned in to your heart, and your physical and intuitive body.
Ask yourself: Where might I be bringing an attitude that doesn’t in fact serve my joyful connections with others? A good place to “aim” this question is toward one’s “Higher Self” or intuitive “knowing”.
Here’s another question you may find helpful: If I were to check my energy body in the present moment, how do my assumptions or “stories” impact my relationship to joy and the experience of gratitude?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 1-3 degrees of Leo or Pisces? If so, you will be…

Practice Listening — Forecast for June 7th – 13th
This week’s headline items: Mercury resumes its normal pace on Monday, ending its station; a powerful New Moon/Solar Eclipse in Gemini becomes exact on Thursday morning; Mars changes signs from Cancer to Leo on Friday late morning. On Saturday, Jupiter and Neptune start their Station phases (i.e., they both slow down) in Pisces.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday late morning (for a little over 3.5 hours), Thursday early afternoon (for almost 14 hours), and Sunday morning (for a little over 7 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, let me make a quick announcement:
Since we have a Solar Eclipse coming up this Thursday, I wanted to share one more time about my latest webinar: If you would like to learn how to align yourself with the current Eclipses and Jupiter’s first pass through Pisces… feel free to watch the mp4-video presentation about “Jupiter in Pisces 2021-22 & Eclipses May-June 2021″ — as it relates to your own Birth Chart…
To purchase this webinar, click here.
Star Members: check your email for the link to the mp4-video recording and enjoy watching it! I sent it out on May 28th late evening.
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, June 7th:
Monday, the Moon remains in steady, peaceful Taurus all day. It will journey there until Tuesday afternoon. We love all physical comforts, prefer consistency, and would rather stick with what we know works well.
In other words: change is not our favorite thing and “rushing things” goes against our grain. What is our favorite thing until tomorrow afternoon? It’s probably slowing down and getting in touch with whatever delights our senses 😉
Monday very early morning, if we are awake at this time, we are asked to connect with people with similar values who can provide practical support for our visions, and to share with them what is important to us. (Moon in Taurus conjuncts Uranus in Taurus, exact at 3:39am EDT)
Monday early morning, again, if we are awake at this time, we need to experience peace and physical pleasure, on the one hand; on the other, we need to take some time to focus on our future visions, and see what’s realistic for us. We may need to make some adjustments between these two needs that are seemingly at odds. (Moon in Taurus squares Saturn in Aquarius, exact at 4:51am EDT)
Monday night, we have an opportunity to meet our need for material comfort with a gentler, more intuitive approach.(Moon in Taurus sextiles Neptune in Pisces, exact at 12:47am EDT (Monday night/Tuesday very early morning).
Also on Monday, Mercury resumes its normal pace through the sky, ending its Station — but moving backward through the sky, as seen from Earth (that’s what “retrograde” refers to).
We have a chance to do some internal work on any thinking and/or communication issues that came up over the last couple of weeks — especially those connected to our siblings, neighbors, immediate environment, inner dialog, or adaptability. How can you stay curious and open-minded about your own thought processes?

On June 10th at 6:53am EDT, the New Moon (and Solar Eclipse) becomes exact in almost 20 degrees of Gemini. Solar Eclipses are extra-powerful New Moons that take place approximately every 6 months — this is the first in 2021 — you may also want to watch my Solar Eclipse video.
During a Solar Eclipse, the Moon momentarily interrupts the normal flow of Solar Radiation, destabilizing existing configurations of energy and reorganizing consciousness to a higher level. Solar Eclipses indicate the beginning of a new experience, project, or cycle.
Eclipses usually come in pairs (Solar and Lunar), and “Eclipse seasons” start approximately 10 days before the first Eclipse of the pair, and continue through the second.
This particular Eclipse season began on May 16th, 10 days before the Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius became exact, and will end with the Full Moon on June 24th, 2021 — in other words, two weeks after the Solar Eclipse in Gemini becomes exact.
While Eclipse season is underway, allow for new templates to download; stay centered and do your best to ground from within — try using conscious breathing and conscious flexibility — and best of all, see if you can move to the “observer position” when it comes to the emotional and mental body. And remember, this won’t last forever: on June 24th, the downloads are complete 😉
Eclipses are a time for clarifying and affirming our highest path. We are bound to experience a release and recalibration of some sort — “old” codes will get deleted and new ones downloaded — and this is especially true in connection with our ability to connect and communicate, our inner dialog, our ability to listen, and our gathering and use of information. This helps us to be more aware of how we interact and what we share.
The Sun and Moon are connected to one of the Moon Nodes during an Eclipse, alternating between North and South Node Eclipses, emphasizing the evolutionary upgrades that are available to us during such times. This is the first North Node Solar Eclipse in Gemini since the Moon Nodes moved into the Gemini-Sagittarius polarity in early May of last year (2020).
North Node Eclipses help us move towards a new exploration of an energy that promotes our Soul’s evolution. They ask us to focus on the energies of the sign involved in the Eclipse (Gemini, in this case) and work with the lighter/higher frequencies of those energies as much as possible. They highlight our ability for individual and collective growth and evolution.
Eclipses are crossroads or turning points along our Soul’s Journey. They are often marked by events or situations that signify a critical shift in our lives, nudging us to either change and grow, or face greater difficulties at the next turning point. In this case, the next turning point will be on September 12th, when the Sun is in Virgo squares this month’s Solar Eclipse degree.
Solar Eclipses, in particular, often correspond to major endings and beginnings. They occur close to the same degree every 19 years, and the last time we had a North Node Solar Eclipse in that same degree and sign was on June 10th, 2002.
We are likely to experience a resonance between now and that time — “resonance”, not repetition — so think back to the Summer of 2002, and ask yourself: Were there any major endings and beginnings? What was important to me back then? If I were to take those priorities to the next level, where would that next level find me?
If you’re looking for more guidance on those questions, I would suggest taking a look at your Natal Chart — the House placement of the Eclipse will indicate which area of life is most ready to embrace new information and rise to a new level of consciousness.
Solar Eclipses are also a good time to go within and seed anything we would like to learn over the next 6 months — we’ll dig into this in more detail towards the end of this article, when we talk about setting Solar Eclipse Intentions.
One major thing to note in this New Moon/Solar Eclipse chart, is that we now have 3 planets in Retrograde motion — and one of them is the ruler of Gemini: Mercury!

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 15-25 degrees of Gemini, Sagittarius, Virgo or Pisces? If so, you may feel the effects of this New Moon more strongly; this is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo or Cancer (the Sun rules Leo, the Moon rules Cancer)
Setting Intentions for a Solar Eclipse is a little different from the regular monthly New Moon process — after all, we are setting them for the whole 6-month Eclipse cycle, rather than just the next 28 days.
Solar Eclipse Intentions are best done 48 hours after the Eclipse becomes exact. We are downloading new templates at the time of an Eclipse, and the energies are quite intense, so we want to wait until it all settles down a little before setting our intentions — that said, we definitely do not want to do this during a Moon void of course.
There are thus two best and most potent times to set your Intentions for this Solar Eclipse:
The first lasts a little over 24 hours, between 6:53am, on June 12th, and 7:16am, on June 13th. The second one runs for 15.5 hours, between 2:22pm, onJune 13th, and 6:53am on Monday, June 14th. Note that all times in this article are given in US Eastern Time — i.e., the New York time zone.
If you live in a timezone other than EDT, and converting time zones isn’t your thing, I suggest joining my Facebook Fan-page and/or following me on Twitter, as I post reminders on those platforms when it’s time to set your intentions 😉
Set powerful intentions — remember, they cover the next six months — and if possible, align them with the Gemini energy!

Release Emotional Blockages
This week’s headline items: the last Quarter Moon in Pisces becomes exact very early Wednesday; Venus changes signs from Gemini to Cancer late Wednesday morning; Saturn resumes its normal pace (ending its station, now retrograde) on Friday; the Balsamic Moon phase begins in Taurus, on Sunday afternoon.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday very early morning (for almost 3 hours), Thursday morning (for almost 7 hours) and Saturday evening (for 7 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, let me make a quick announcement:
If you missed my Forecasting Forum last week… and still would like to learn how to align yourself with the current Eclipses and Jupiter’s first pass through Pisces… feel free to watch the mp4-video presentation about “Jupiter in Pisces 2021-22 & Eclipses May-June 2021″ — as it relates to your own Birth Chart…
To purchase this webinar, click here.
Star Members: check your email for the link to the mp4-video recording and enjoy watching it! I sent it out on May 28th late evening 😉
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, May 31st:
Monday, the Moon remains in freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius all day. It will journey there until Tuesday early morning. The energy of the Aquarian Moon relates to our instinct for improvement. Reactions are more intellectual than emotional; interactions more impersonal than personal. We are likely to have an increased fascination with the new and unusual.
Social gatherings, anything connected with group ideals and goals for the future, brainstorming, new ideas and methods, progress: all these are promoted during the time the Moon moves through Aquarius. Again: we have our eyes on the future — or on outer space 🙂 Personal freedom becomes paramount.
Monday very early morning, a harmonious Mars/Neptune aspect becomes exact at 1:15am EDT. We start to feel this aspect build from this last week Tuesday evening (May 25th) on, it will remain strong until this Friday evening. This aspect brings the ability to endow what we feel passionate about with our creativity — and connect it to a higher love.
Our masculine energies are able to connect to compassion and understanding. We can now release past issues; through loving ourselves, we can release emotional blockages and the lower vibrations of the masculine: aggression, domineering, destructiveness, me-first attitudes.
As this aspect is taking place in Cancer and Pisces, we are connecting to our goals and dreams from an emotional place that is deeply spiritual. We are able to let go of our fears and attachments and are able to have faith that everything will turn out just as it needs to.
Those of us who have their Ascendent (or personal planets) in 20-26 degrees of Cancer, Pisces or Scorpio will be touched in a particularly beautiful way by this aspect. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Aries or Pisces (Mars is the ruler of Aries; Neptune rules Pisces).
Monday late afternoon, requires some inner adjustments. We feel uneasy or awkward and need to make a choice, one that demands we develop inner awareness around two very different urges: on the one hand, the need to connect to like-minded people about our future visions — and on the other hand, the need to nurture ourselves and stay in touch with our feeling body, engaging with what feels safe and in alignment with our innermost Self. (Moon in Aquarius quincunxes Mars in Cancer, exact at 5:11pm EDT)
Monday evening, we feel a flow and support towards socializing and connecting with others. Great ideas and concepts can be shared right now. (Moon in Aquarius trines Mercury in Gemini, exact at 7:13pm EDT)

Endeavors of a Spiritual or Artistic Nature
This week’s headline items: Mercury’s Station intensifies on Tuesday, a powerful Full Moon (Lunar Eclipse) in Sagittarius becomes exact on Wednesday morning, and Mercury comes to a halt (going retrograde) on Saturday evening.

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, May 24th:
Monday, the Moon remains in passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio all day. Where it will journey until Tuesday late evening. We feel things deeply and have “X-Ray Vision” and “Bullshit-Smelling Abilities” 😉
Emotional authenticity is extremely important to us at this time; anything less than 100% emotional honesty could be perceived as flat-out dishonest. Once we feel safe trusting someone, we want to merge with them, preferably forever… as long as our trust is never betrayed.
The Moon in Scorpio urges us to uncover our own power. This occurs by a process of subtraction — it urges us to let go of whatever disempowers us. It’s therefore an excellent time to look at “old” fears, limiting habits or emotional attachments, especially those stemming from past traumas.
Moon in Scorpio tends to run right over ambiguity — it’s “in or out”, “with us or against us”, “love me or leave me”. It can therefore be stormy — a cold winter storm, or a torrid tropical storm of passion, depending on how we “work” the energies 🙂
Manipulation and paranoia are the lower vibrations of this aspect, so as best you can, be straightforward — act in good faith and assume it in others. Best of all, be truly present to the fluctuations of your feelings — no matter if they’re “polite” or “timely”. Feelings aren’t facts, but they are information — and heeding them will help you embrace all of who you are.
Know thyself — and love thyself — you shall be set free. Remember: Love connects us to the Power within; Fear causes “Force” to show up — and that’s ultimately what disempowers us and others.
Monday early morning, we are invited to make some inner adjustments. We feel uneasy or awkward and need to make a choice. Making this choice demands we develop inner awareness around two very different urges: on the one hand, the desire to be mentally stimulated, and share ourselves with others — and on the other, the need to merge with another and feel deeply and intimately connected to them. (Moon in Scorpio quincunxes Sun in Gemini, exact at 4:28am EDT)
Monday early evening, we are also invited to make some inner adjustments: we need to develop inner awareness around two very different urges: On the one hand, we have the urge to go deeper and connect with others; on the other hand, we are more aware of triggers and limitations connected to old childhood wounds.
As best as you can, be compassionate and understanding with yourself when feelings of anger come up (and even if shame follows expressions of that anger). Ask yourself: How might 5% more compassion support my relationship with myself and others today? (Moon in Scorpio quincunxes Chiron in Aries, exact at 5:54pm EDT)
Also on, Monday early evening, we are invited to examine our relationship to money, power, and resources (personal and shared). Ask yourself: How can I balance my need for a deeper, more empowered experience with others, against my wish to honor my personal values and desire for freedom? (Moon in Scorpio opposes Uranus in Taurus, exact at 6:15pm EDT)
Monday evening, we feel a need to focus on our commitments to our online and local communities, but also a need for deep, authentic — even intimate — connections to others. As best as you can, make adjustments and watch out for…
