The visionary starts with a clean sheet of paper and reimagines the world.” —Malcolm Gladwell (Neptune)
I discovered that a fresh start is a process. A fresh start is a journey—a journey that requires a plan. —Vivian Jokotade (Mars and Saturn)
The big news for the last part of May into June and forward is Saturn’s move into Aries on May 24. Saturn will be in Aries for the next couple of years, except for a brief retrograde back into Pisces from September 2025 until February 2026.
Saturn in Aries is part of a continuing connection Saturn has with Neptune at zero degrees Aries. Saturn and Neptune are part of the big shift made by all of the outer planets as they move into new signs in 2025.
In the photo above, the mist in the distance represents the Neptunian veil of foggy perception and illusion. Yet, when we immerse ourselves in it, we feel our intuition expanding and we are infused with a sense of awe and spiritual connection. The well-defined path relates to Saturn, which brings sense of direction to your endeavors.
Saturn is known as the “Great Taskmaster.” It is the planet of responsibility, patience and limitation. It requires you to “toe the line” within a structured setting and to plan and work hard to achieve your goals. Saturn’s role is to prepare you and keep you focused. It brings rewards, but on its own schedule and only once you have proved yourself.
Neptune wants you to dream the impossible dream, while Saturn absolutely requires you to be real and authentic. Ask yourself?
- How much do I desire the wished for outcome?
- How confident am I that you I can be successful?>
- How much work am I willing to do to bring about that outcome?
- Am I willing to be patient and practice persistence, even when the desired outcome looks out of my reach?
Combining the power of Neptune to dream big with Saturn’s power to plan and define purpose, along with focused work (Saturn) can help you manifest your dreams (Neptune).
June 1: Venus Conjunct Chiron at 25 Degrees Aries. Venus and Chiron are trine the Leo Moon and sextile Jupiter. The beneficial vibes of both Venus and Jupiter assist you in looking at old wounds (Chiron) and offer healing energy to resolve or, at least, to move past old disagreements and hurtful events.
June 6: Venus Enters Taurus. Venus in Taurus brings your focus to your love life, nature and financial matters. Venus is sextile the big planet Jupiter as Venus enters Cancer. You may be tempted to spend more than you should on pretty things, especially items for the home. Taurus loves security, so its best to practice restraint when deciding how and when to spend your money.
June 8: Sun at 18 Gemini Sesiquiquadrate Pluto at 3 Aquarius. If you have planets near 18 degrees Gemini or 3 Aquarius, you may want to wait a few days before taking action, especially when communicating with others,
June 8-9: Mercury Enters Cancer June 8 and Jupiter Enters Cancer June 9. Mercury in Cancer adds emotional sensitivity and empathy to your communications. You may find that you are having more discussions about your home, especially around making it more “homey.” Mercury will be in Cancer until June 26 and Jupiter will be in Cancer until June 30, 2026.
June 9: Venus Square Pluto at 3 Degrees Taurus/Aquarius. Be careful in your interactions with those close to you now. Venus square Pluto in the fixed signs of Taurus and Aquarius brings intensity and stubbornness that can result in intense battles over nothing of importance. Mercury Quincunx Pluto requires adjustment of your words and communication. Your words may be perceived as more aggressive, intense and powerful than you realize.
June 11: Full Moon at 20 Degrees 39 Minutes Sagittarius at 3:43 AM EDT. The full Moon in Sagittarius forms a grand trine with Mars in Leo and Chiron in Aries. The Sagittarius Full Moon radiates a sense of confidence, joy and optimism. Use this auspicious full moon to accomplish those things that once seemed overwhelming or impossible.
June 15: Mars Square Uranus at 28 Degrees Leo/Taurus. Jupiter Square Saturn at 1 Degree Cancer/Aries. Mars square Uranus in the fixed signs of Leo and Taurus is a volatile, unpredictable aspect. It’s best not to engage in conflicts now, as both sides are apt to be stubborn (fixed signs) and the energy is such that any conflicts can quickly erupt into an all-out war. Jupiter square Saturn adds to the problematic energy. This aspect brings a feeling of uncertainty, tension and a “poor me” attitude. Jupiter tends toward grandiosity, while Saturn maintains that all is not well. Keep your own counsel until the volatility eases at the end of June.
June 17: Mars Enters Virgo. Mars liked being in Leo, a fellow fire sign. Both Mars and Leo like action and Mars is very visible when in Leo. Now, Mars in Virgo until August 7 is calmed down and much quieter. Use this quieter Mars to do some serious organizing and hauling away clutter. Mars in Virgo is also good for staring an exercise program or for taking part in community service work.
June 18-20: Jupiter Square Neptune at 2 Degrees Cancer/Aries. Mars at 1 Degree Virgo Quincunx Saturn and Neptune at 2 Degrees Aries. Jupiter wants you to feel optimistic, but things just seem too confusing when Jupiter is square Neptune. Mars in Virgo quincunx Saturn effectively steps on the brakes. An adjustment is called for under the quincunx aspect. This is not the best time to initiate new projects as the steps to get to completion and the outcome just aren’t clear.
June 20: Sun Enters Cancer. Your thoughts turn to home and family when the Sun is in Cancer. You feel the need to nurture and protect those you love, whether a person or your special pet. You may want to do more baking or cooking now to express your love for family. Your emotions are stronger than usual and your emotional sensitivity is enhanced.
June 22-23: Sun at 1 Degree Cancer Square Saturn and Neptune at 1-2 Degrees Aries. Mars Quincunx Pluto at 3 Degrees Virgo/Aquarius. The Sun in Cancer square the Saturn/Neptune conjunction really amps up the energy today. See my discussion at the beginning of this newsletter for more information on the effects of Sun square Saturn and Neptune.
Mars quincunx Pluto requires finesse. Aggression and power are hallmarks of both Mars and Pluto. When they face off in a quincunx, something has to give. Be especially careful of aggressive drivers and of disagreements that quickly escalate into separations and hurt feelings.
June 24: Sun Conjunct Jupiter at 3 Degrees Cancer Quincunx Pluto at 3 Degrees Aquarius. Mercury Square Chiron at 26 Degrees Cancer/Aries. Sun conjunct Jupiter brings a big dose of optimism and a positive outlook. This aspect combined with Mercury square Chiron is superb for bringing understanding and healing to past hurts and wounding.
June 25: New Moon at 4 Degrees Cancer at 6:31 AM EDT. This Cancer New Moon is significant. The Sun and Moon are square the Saturn/Neptune conjunction. The New Moon is inconjunct Pluto and sextile Mars, which forms a yod aspect with Pluto at the Apex. Use your intuition now, but proceed cautiously. Powerful energy indeed.
June 26: Mercury Enters Leo. Mercury Trine Saturn at 1 Degree Aries. Mercury in Leo trine Saturn in Aries brings clear thinking and the energy to deal with any tasks that require concentration and attention to detail.
June 29: Mercury Opposition Pluto at 3 Degrees Leo/Aquarius. Mercury opposition Pluto is the aspect known for propaganda and indoctrination. Stand up for what you believe and do not be swayed by the glitter of false promises. Instead, use this aspect to dig deep to understand the truth behind false stories.
