You may come to the end of the road. Choices may narrow. Whether you’re confronted by the abrupt or the gradual, watch for Saturn in Aries to strip away that which no longer holds staying power. This is a time of initiation, and of forging a new version of yourself. Typically, a fresh start under this transit can bring delays or require more time and effort. Whether recognized now or later, this grinding start-up phase carries significant purpose. As the weeks and months unfold, more will unfold. Time reveals all. Time heals all. The tough going takes you through a muscle-building time.

Saturn entered Aries on May 24. Neptune entered Aries on March 31. They will remain close/inseparable travelling partners through the rest of this year and the first quarter of 2026. Together, their mission aims to dissolve patterns of the past and to create opportunity for a new consciousness and a new reality to surface. Through September/October, both transits are on an instigating, introductory, test pilot track. For the last quarter of the year and first month of 2026, both planets revisit Pisces for last finishing touch on the clearing away process before hitting full tilt on their next agenda. On February 20, 2026, Saturn and Neptune will meet (by conjunction). This global reset transit marks the official end of a 36-year manifesting chapter and the start of the next chapter. For this year and the first quarter of 2026, you will feel the fullest effect of the Saturn/Neptune transit if you are born on or near March 20/21.  (Read more on Saturn in Aries: https://rosemarcus.com/saturn-in-aries-a-few-thoughts/

Jupiter enters Cancer on June 9. This one-year transit puts added emphasis on home, real estate, and family. A move, a family expansion, or change of status could be in the works (i.e. someone could leave the nest or require more help and support). For the past 10 months, Saturn and Jupiter have been struggling to push past an invisible barrier – that of uncertainty.

As of June 15, Jupiter and Saturn will meet for a final time. What is different on this final pass (of three) is that both planets are newly positioned in cardinal (instigation, activation, inception) rather than mutable signs (fluctuating, mutational, moving target). This date (or the weeks prior to and following) can bring a sense of finally moving through the turnstile, of compelled or forced by circumstance, and of turning a corner of significance. Also on June 15, Mars/Uranus square off. This activation influence can spark a fresh insight, instinct or impulse, a change of mind, momentum, or direction. Something completely unexpected can set wheels in motion. Mars/Uranus is an unleashing, eruptive, disruptive, break-free combination. It can trigger excitement, opportunity, the sudden and unexpected, drama, stress, or volatility.

Before Jupiter/Saturn square off, there is a full moon to watch. June 11 delivers a full swing, take-flight, full moon in Sagittarius (Jupiter’s home sign). Watch for big news, perhaps from a distance away, for an opportunity to travel or perform, or for a need to race into action. Something (or someone) unexpected could change everything. A speculative move or gamble holds potential, but With Mars/Uranus in the mix, it is impossible to predict. This full moon could be a preview for the June 15 transits. Now or soon could jettison you into a whole new reality. Mars/Uranus can trigger eruption, disruption, high stress, surprise, sudden opportunity, weather extremes, volatility, violence, weather extremes.

Mars exits Leo for Virgo on June 17. Through August 6, this Mars transit keeps the focus on the task at hand, on clean up, clear away, and fix-it projects, on necessary improvements, upgrades, and adjustments, and on finding more workable solutions. June 26 – 29, Mercury is freshly into Leo and sets up a good timing run. At the tail end of this run (June 29) there could be something to confront, or a need for an extra push. By the end of the month, you could see a productive turnaround or course correction. Note, Mercury in Leo will be on a retrograde tour from July 18 to August 11 (a time to regroup or revisit).

If you haven’t yet gotten a handle on it yet, trust the Saturn in Aries transit to be clarifying. You’ll see Saturn at work through the doors that close and those that open. Trial and error, course correction, and patience are all part of the process. There are times when it will be important to recognize when those repeated attempts are a futile exercise. That requires an honest examination of your beliefs, expectations, attachments, and fears. (Why hold on so tightly?)

Saturn remains in a favourable alignment with two powerful agents of change—Uranus and Pluto—through this year and into the first quarter of next. The outer world is changing, and more importantly, your inner reality is too. Put effort into personal reinvention and you will find yourself in sync with the shifting world around you. Although your sign is typically resistant to change, under this trio of transits, that’s exactly what you’ll be craving: a new you.

Uranus moves out of Taurus and into Gemini on July 7. It will make a final revisit to Taurus from November 7 through April 25, 2026. If you were born on or near May 18–20, you’ll feel Uranus’s activating and stimulating effect in a front and center way. Otherwise, it has likely already touched your life in a revolutionizing way. Along with Pluto in Aquarius, Uranus will continue to be a major catalyst for accelerated change throughout this year, next year, and into the foreseeable future.

Jupiter begins its one-year tour through Cancer on June 9. Increasing your emotional responsiveness, this is a “go by feel” transit. Jupiter in Cancer heightens focus on matters related to safety, security, real estate, home base, comfort zones, and self-care. On June 15, Jupiter finally surpasses a major log jam with Saturn. Since August of last year, this planetary pair has kept up the pressure. You have likely witnessed Saturn/Jupiter transit as one thing after another, with little reprieve, as destabilizing, or as a shifting goal post. By mid-month, you’ll have passed another turnstile moment (the big one).  The Saturn/Jupiter transit is accompanied by Mars/Uranus in dynamic angle (square aspect).  Mars/Uranus can dial up the action in some sudden, striking, opportune, breakthrough, or life-altering way. Potential is heightened for weather extremes, sudden onsets, eruptions, disruptions, accidents, volatility, or violence. In addition to June 15, keep your eye on the full swing, full moon in Sagittarius of June 11.  Beyond the end of the school semester and start of vacation time for those in the northern hemisphere, watch for this full moon to set big wheels in motion, for matters to take flight, for the action or volatility to escalate. Once these transits make their delivery, the way forward will be clearer cut. You’ll be better able to assess what truly serves your best interests.

Mars enters Virgo on June 17. This two-month transit (to August 6) sets a productive tone for efforts aimed at cleanup, clearing out, healing, and overall improvement. June 26 to 29, Mercury in Leo is on a good timing, productive track. The end of the month could see you on a positive turnaround or course correction.

Saturn’s advance into Aries can be clarifying. This transit can spell out what’s viable, and what’s not in a more obvious, non-negotiable way. Any test you face during this transit serves to strengthen your inner resolve and to demonstrate whether a budding prospect or new goal can hold up and weather the test of time. Continuing on a finishing track, Saturn travels closely with Neptune through the rest of the year. By February 20, 2026, Saturn and Neptune will meet (by conjunction)—marking the official close of a 36-year cycle and launching a new life chapter. Over the next two (plus) years, Saturn in Aries will introduce you to an entirely new reality. This transit favours efforts and fresh initiatives directed toward freedom and independence. Self-employment and new business ventures are also favoured.

After a year spent in your sign (a spinning-your-wheels kind of cycle), Jupiter leaves Gemini for Cancer on June 9. This shift helps you tune in to what holds real value. It brings a more grounded perspective, helping you cut down on second-guessing and to feel more secure in your choices—especially regarding your investments and involvements. On June 15, Jupiter finally turns a corner with Saturn. It’s been pushing against an invisible wall since last August. Coinciding with this Saturn/Jupiter (finally through the turnstile) shift, Mars forms a square to Uranus on the same day. Mars/Uranus may spark a sudden insight, revelation, a release, a breakthrough or something out of the blue. To the plus, synchronicity could set an opportunity backdrop. On the other hand, Mars/Uranus could produce unexpected drama, added volatility, violence, or a weather extreme.

From June 17 to August 6, Mars transits Virgo. Regarding home and mindset, this can be a busy time focused on cleanup, clarity, healing, and self-improvement. This may include home renovations and upgrades. Most importantly, it’s about how you live with yourself and function day-to-day, attitude included.

In addition to summer fun and social enjoyment, Mercury’s transit through Leo (June 26 to September 2) keeps “I deserve” front and center. By all means, enjoy the people and experiences that make your journey meaningful.

If you are born on or near June 22–23, you’ll feel Saturn and Neptune’s dissolving, ending, and seeding influence at full strength. If your birthday falls later in June or in July, it will take more time for their full impact to come into light. For now, focus on today and your immediate concerns. Effort invested now—no matter how small—positions you for down the road/your future prospects.

Jupiter begins a one-year tour through Cancer on June 9. One way or another, this transit is mobilizing. It puts more attention on safety, security, health, your emotional well being, and self care. It heightens sensitivity, empathy, and responsiveness. You can feel more vulnerable or more in need too. Jupiter in Cancer sets you on a growth curve of significance.

Since August, Jupiter has been pressing against a Saturn boundary. These past 10 months have produce plenty of uncertainty. These many months may have felt like a significant hold-up or prolonged waiting game. On June 15, Jupiter finally pushes through the turnstile. This marks the final of a triple pass meet-up between Jupiter and Saturn. From last August until recently, this transit has centered around developing potentials that never quite solidified—always almost, but not quite. Things may have dissolved or fallen away rather than reached full fruition. Additional factors have also distracted or waylaid.

Coinciding with the Saturn/Jupiter action, Mars/Uranus (in square aspect) can light a fuse. Watch for something sudden and unexpected to hit go.  You could experience a breakthrough or receive pivotal news. Among the range of possibilities for this combination of planets: a weather extreme, market volatility, an exciting performance or game, eruptions, disruptions, protests, violence, accidents.

One way or another, Mars in Virgo (June 17 to August 6) puts you to work. This is an excellent time to tackle upgrades and improvements, eliminate what’s not serving you, and to clarify what’s workable and essential.

Mercury’s tour through Leo (June 26 to September 2) turns attention to your creative talents and financial opportunities. Make the most of what you have—you likely have more going for you than you realize. While Mars in Virgo sharpens your focus on day-to-day practicalities, Mercury in Leo lifts your spirits and confidence. This is a time to radiate from your happy place, to draw others toward your positive energy/frequency, to let your heart lead. Mercury, freshly into Leo, is especially constructive from June 26 to 29.

Every 29 years, Saturn returns to the same place in your chart. Think back 14 years to the midpoint of this cycle. Whether it marked a starting point, a half-way mark, a culmination, or a turning point, what began then is now or soon to reach another milestone.

Saturn/Neptune cycles also govern 36-year phases of personal and collective evolution. Currently, they are in both a wrap-up and seeding stage. You may feel this more instinctively at first—through intuition or synchronicity—before external events reflect the shift. On this bigger picture scale, this shaping and shaving Saturn/Neptune transit has already punched in and is presenting at work to cement the new foundation that will set your future onto its next course.

On the positive side, this planetary pairing connects you with deep inner wisdom. Even if it defies logic, you’ll feel it speak of truth. Trust your intuition—it’s where your inspiration will come from. You could find yourself entering a creatively rich period. This next chapter of your life could see you discover your true vocation, step onto a path of service, or see you commit more deeply to your spiritual growth. There are many ways this “tuning fork” duo can resonate in your life.

There may be moments when the path ahead feels overwhelming. It is in those moments you’ll realize you have little choice and much to gain by giving it your all. What’s unfolding is no less than your future under active construction.

Mars continues in Leo until June 16, keeping your inner spark lit and urging you to show up for yourself where it matters most. This transit boosts vitality, confidence, and creativity. It also sharpens instincts, enhances your sense of timing, and sets a backdrop that can improve your odds for success.

Mars continues to build momentum into mid-month. The week of June 9 could be ideal for travel, vacation, or for scouting for new solutions and opportunities. Watch the week surrounding the full moon on June 11 in Sagittarius—activity may intensify, big wheels can set in motion, trends, talks, sales and negotiations can take flight. June 15 hosts two powerful squares, Saturn/Jupiter and Mars/Uranus. Watch for a forward thrust momentum of significance. These dates could deliver a sudden breakthrough, shake-up, news, or a sudden event. Mars/Uranus dials up volatility (market, political, protests, violence) drama, and extremes (weather included).

From June 17 to August 6, Mars in Virgo puts you into practical, get to work mode. The focus is on healing, refining, upgrades, and improvements. Motivation is triggered by both desire and necessity. Balance is what fuels steady progress.

Mercury enters Leo on June 26 and stays through September 2. This transit keeps you energized and on the go. Looking good, feeling good, this Mercury transit can bring you spotlight attention. It also puts pleasure and play to the top of your to-do list. Mercury goes retrograde from July 18 to August 11, setting a good backdrop for vacation or taking a step back to regroup.

The second and third weeks of June are ones to watch. The action hits full tilt. The Sagittarius full moon on June 11 and the Jupiter/Saturn turning point (June 15) mark an acceleration gateway. You may get news, reach a major milestone, or move forward on something that’s been on pause or delay. This could relate to home, family, career, or a major legal, contractual, or personal matter. If your birthday falls near September 13, you’ll likely feel this full moon at full strength. There’s also a karmic element at play—something tied to family, history, or a relationship may come full circle. Some things that start now won’t fully materialize until September.

Jupiter enters Cancer on June 9, heightening your emotional sensitivity and empathic awareness. You’ll feel more attuned, to others and to your own deeper needs. Bonds with loved ones can grow stronger. You could also meet someone who feels instantly familiar or significant. Pay attention to moments that feel like déjà vu—they carry echoes of past lives or hint of your long-standing soul ties.

June 15 is a key date. It marks the third and final Jupiter/Saturn square. This alignment has been active since last August. It’s also the day that Mars squares Uranus, potentially triggering a breakthrough, realization, or bold new initiative. You could feel like you’ve finally moved through a turnstile of significance (an internal or external threshold). Note that Mars/Uranus can be an eruptive, disruptive, excitable, out of the blue, or volatile influence.

Mars energizes your sign from June 17 to August 6. Use this time to tackle goals, improve systems, and streamline your day-to-day. This transit helps you work smarter, not harder. You should find you can tap from sharper instincts and better timing. From June 26 to September 2, Mercury in Leo shifts your focus to creativity, joy, and play. It’s a good time for personal expression, but keep in mind Mercury goes retrograde July 18 to August 11—don’t overshoot the mark, it could prove to be folly later.

Whether you’re choosing the change, accepting the inevitability, or are confronted by it, the Saturn/Neptune transit (extending through the first quarter of 2026 in a front and center way) sets up a moment of karmic reckoning and renewal. The message is clear: show up for yourself in a more honest, self-respecting, sovereign way.

Saturn and Neptune will continue a process of release and restructuring through early 2026. Until then, you’re working through the final chapters of a 36-year cycle. As both planets return briefly to Pisces later this year, you’ll get a chance to resolve what remains unfinished before fully stepping into the next phase.

Saturn in Aries isn’t easy, but it is strengthening. It can challenge you to take responsibility for your choices, commit to your own growth, or make a clean break from patterns that no longer serve. Whether it’s personal or professional, the call is to get real, and to get serious about what truly matters.

Jupiter enters Cancer on June 9, spotlighting your personal life, home base, and long-term security. You may feel more emotionally driven, more motivated to invest in what nurtures and sustains you. Saturn in Aries breaks old patterns. Jupiter in Cancer helps you to establish new ones. Responsibilities could increase, but so can the sense of meaning and reward. This year-long transit supports the development of a stronger foundation—personally, professionally, and emotionally.

The full moon in Sagittarius on June 11 could bring a key conversation, opportunity, or realization to the surface. Information moves quickly, and so might decisions. Expect a surge regarding travel, education, publishing, contracts, or sales, and market trends. June 15 is another peak of the month. Jupiter and Saturn form a square for the third and final time (marking the end of a 10-month fluctuating work in progress cycle). On this same day, Mars squares Uranus. Mars/Uranus can punch up the intensity, drama, or volatility. The duo can trigger a weather extreme, an eruption, disruption, violence, or accidents. Watch for something unexpected. The pressure to move, pivot, or act could be intense. What begins now is charged with long-term potential.

From June 17 to August 6, Mars in Virgo urges you to clean house—literally and metaphorically. Use this time to simplify, purge, organize, and heal. You’re laying the groundwork for what comes next. Mercury enters Leo on June 26, setting up a good time to reconnect with loved ones and friends, to enjoy more of the pleasures of life. Mercury is on a roll from June 25–29, but plan for a slowdown or review phase during Mercury’s retrograde from July 18 to August 11.

This duo will travel closely together through early 2026, working in harmony with Pluto and Uranus to open doors to meaningful reinvention. Whether that means launching a new professional path or simply working less and living more—these are not small edits. They’re core rewrites.

You may feel more restricted or under pressure at times, but don’t let that stop you. Saturn’s message is clear: do the work, get the result. Keep your focus on what counts and let go of distractions.

Jupiter in Cancer, starting June 9, increases your need to support, secure, protect, and preserve where it adds up the most. Better quality self care, your own comfort zone, and personal well being should be at the top of your priority list. Responsibilities can grow; so too, the reward they promise. Over this next year Jupiter in Cancer sets an opportunity backdrop.

June 11 delivers a full swing full moon in Sagittarius. Watch for a conversation, a trend, or a good idea to get off the ground fast. Market activity could be brisk. There could be a higher volume of travellers, traders, and folks on the move. Could be a notable announcement, sports or entertainment event.

On June 15, Saturn/Jupiter are in action. This planetary pairing has been vying to gain more sure footing for the past 10 months (since August 2025). All along, the reality has continued in a major state of flux. This final alignment is the one that has the most kick. Both Jupiter and Saturn are freshly into cardinal signs (activating influence) rather than the mutable signs (fluctuating influence). Also on a flint strike, Mars/Uranus (square aspect) dial up the intensity and potential for a breakthrough. At the very least, it could spark an insight or a change of perspective. At the max, it could produce an eruption, disruption, added volatility, something extreme or unexpected.  Mid-month gets you past the Saturn/Jupiter log jam. This date could move you (or thrust you) through something major. What is initiated holds greater than average prospect and breaks the groundwork for the long term.

While Neptune works in the realms of subtlety and potential, Saturn is a precision expert. In combination, the planetary duo are clearing the way for a new reality to take the lead. Saturn in Aries narrows the focus, puts the viewfinder directly on the target. This planetary pair will continue to travel within tight orb for the rest of this year and into the first quarter of 2026. Now through the fall, Saturn/Neptune in Aries are on a test drive of new impulses and initiatives. Both planets will revisit Pisces in the fall. This finishing track will aim to dissolve whatever residue, resistance or block is still in the way. The last quarter of the year will also provide more time and opportunity to acclimatize, to feel the way along what is in your best and highest interests. By February 20, 2026, Saturn and Neptune will officially complete a 36-year manifesting cycle (a life era), and to begin the next chapter.

On June 9, Jupiter begins a one-year tour of Cancer.  This transit can support you to become more secure with your choices, (both emotional and material). It can favour nesting, and also enhances nest egg prospects. Emotional bonds can deepen and enrich. An intimate relationship can grow, family (i.e. having a child) or family involvement can too. Jupiter in Cancer sets a favourable backdrop to increase financial prospects/income too. Also, Jupiter in Cancer increases your intuitive awareness and empathic abilities, especially when it comes to self care and listening to your body’s wisdom.

For the past 10 month, Jupiter and Saturn have been paired up in mutable signs (Gemini, Pisces). The planetary pair have been struggling to push past an invisible barrier – that of uncertainty.

As of June 15, Jupiter and Saturn will meet for a final time. What is different on this final pass (of three) is that both planets are newly positioned in cardinal (instigation, activation, inception) rather than mutable signs (fluctuating, mutational, moving target). This date can bring a sense of finally moving through the turnstile, of compelled or forced by circumstance, or of turning a corner of significance. Also on June 15, Mars/Uranus square off. This activation influence can spark a fresh insight, instinct or impulse, a change of mind, momentum, or direction, or something out of the blue that sets wheels in motion. Mars/Uranus is an unleashing, eruptive, disruptive, break-free combination. It can trigger excitement, opportunity, the sudden and unexpected, drama, stress, or volatility.

June 17 to August 6, Mars tours Virgo. Expect to stay busy with the task at hand, i.e. working the kinks out of the system, with necessary and desired improvement, and with getting the important stuff better organized. Mercury in Leo, starting June 26, optimizes your effectiveness, your ability to connect the dots, and to make the most of your time as the month finishes out. Note that Mercury in Leo will tour retrograde from July 18 to August 11 (good for a regroup, vacation, or change of scenery).

Saturn and Neptune will remain close travelling partners through the rest of this year and the first quarter of 2026. Together, they are at work to dissolve patterns of the past and to create opportunity for a new consciousness and a new reality to surface. Through September/October, both transits are on an instigating, introductory, test pilot track. For the last quarter of the year and first month of 2026, both planets revisit Pisces for last finishing touch on the clearing away process before hitting full tilt on their next agenda. On February 20, 2026, Saturn and Neptune will meet (by conjunction). This global reset transit marks the official end of a 36-year manifesting chapter and the start of the next chapter.

Additionally, for the past 10 months, Jupiter and Saturn have been working to move through the quarter-point (square aspect) of a 20-year cycle (social/economic; started on December 21, 2020). The first two of the triple pass alignment happened in Gemini/Pisces, mutable signs. As we have witnessed, we have moved through a period of continuous guesswork. The variables and uncertainties have subjected us to an experiential track of one thing after another. Over these past months, there’s been a sense of facing some invisible barrier or wall. The last of the triple alignment happens on June 15, with both planets freshly into new signs. Jupiter in Cancer moves through a turnstile threshold with Saturn in Aries. This date (give or take a week) could hold great emotional impact, especially if you are born on or near the December solstice. June 15 also hosts a dynamic Mars/Uranus (square) transit. Mars/Uranus could prompt a sudden epiphany or impulse, a change of mind, heart, or plan. Something or someone could suddenly appear, interrupt, trigger, or disrupt. Take note that Mars/Uranus can spark high expectations, added stress, volatility, arguments, sudden impulses, impatience, rash behaviour or out of the blue/unexpected events.

Jupiter’s one year tour through Cancer (starting June 9) can see new relationship and social bonds form. You can find you are more open receptive, others are too. You might feel a greater need to connect, to forge better inroads, both personally and professionally. As the growth planet, Jupiter in Cancer favours attention directed toward building a better network, grooming customer loyalty, and such. This transit also heightens your intuition, also your emotional and somatic responsiveness. Jupiter in Cancer enhances your ability to read body language, yours or theirs.

Mars tours Virgo from June 17 to August 6. This transit can sharpen your intuition regarding what and who is most worthy of your time, what or who will stand the test of time. Under this transit, the right aim is to work smarter rather than harder, to shorten the distance to your goal, to adjust, make improvements, clear the clutter, and to eliminate the time wasters. This Mars transit can keep you occupied a short project, plan, or training program, or a temporary trial run. Note, next Mercury retrograde cycle (in Leo) happens July 18 to August 11. In combination, both transits will help you to get a better fix on your best bets.

Through September and October, Saturn/Neptune continue along an instigating, test pilot track. For the last quarter of 2025, both planets will revisit Pisces. In so doing, they aim to dissolve the lingering residue of doubt, uncertainly, or the invisible force that still blocks or inhibits the overtaking momentum. The planetary pair are at work to culminate a 36-year manifesting chapter. By February 20, 2026, Saturn meets Neptune by conjunction. This date mark the official end of a 36-year manifesting cycle and begins construction on the next. You may recognize the past 36 years as an important chapter of your life (a karmic development/maturation chapter in the school of life).

In addition to Saturn/Neptune working toward a common goal, for the past 10 months, Saturn/Jupiter has been too. On the bigger picture perspective, Saturn/Jupiter mark 20-year cycles of social and economic developments. Saturn/Jupiter have been pushing against an invisible barrier at their five-year post. They’ve been held up at this threshold for the past 10 months. (To name a few, Justin Trudeau’s step down as Canada’s Prime Minister, the election of Trump, and tariff uncertainties are reflections of this transit.)

The last of the Saturn/Jupiter triple alignment meetings (first two in the mutable signs of Gemini/Pisces) happens on June 15, with both planets newly positioned in cardinal (activation) signs: Jupiter in Cancer and Saturn in Aries. Watch this date to be emotionally catapulting. This transit trigger can put national security measures into action or a beef-up of safety responses (national, regional, economic, personal). Mars/Uranus (square), a high voltage, volatile, breakthrough, opportune, or eruptive combination, accompanies this Saturn/Jupiter transit. As is typical for Mars/Uranus, watch for something unexpected. Watch for an escalation of trends and action in the week before, from Jupiter’s advance into Cancer on June 8, and the full swing, full moon in Sagittarius (Jupiter’s home sign) on June 11.

For this next year, Jupiter in Cancer can prompt you/teach you to trust your intuition more. Your body holds its own wisdom, listen up. Put better self care on your to-do list.  Watch for heightened sensitivity to the world around you and the people in it. Under Jupiter in Cancer, your intuitive, empathic, and presaging capacities increase. Are you a metaphysician, healer, instructor, counsellor, or advisor?  Jupiter’s blessings can benefit your practice. You’ll find plenty of opportunity to put your talents to good use.

On another note, Jupiter in Cancer can bring the benefit of added support when you go looking for it. This transit increases the focus on building a better nest egg and on preserving what matters most. It can reward effort toward developing more emotional and material security. Under the range of Jupiter’s influence, you may feel the need to increase safeguards regarding your job or your work (proprietary matters such as copyrights, etc.), your assets (passwords, home security system, etc.), or your health (more vitamin support, counselling, etc.). Too, someone close to you may need more help, nurturing, protection, or TLC. Working from home or making the office feel more like home also fit the Jupiter in Cancer profile. On the hunt for a more fulfilling job? The helping and healing fields can be the place to look. Jupiter in Cancer can bless you with the opportunity to do work that feels more heart-centered.

June 17 to August 6, Mars enters Virgo. Expect to stay especially busy with the clean up and clear away, and DIY process. This Mars transit will put you to work on repairs, improvements, upgrades, and healing. Ditch the time and money wasters. Mars in Virgo also keeps your attention on budgeting more efficiently, on reducing expenses and your workload. Even so, there are expenses or repairs that will be necessary (perhaps unforeseen or unavoidable). Don’t hesitate to enlist or hire more help when it is warranted. On another note, as hard as you try, you may not be able to fix or heal a relationship that is already falling apart, or an individual who is fixated on their own self destruction path. Under this transit, it is time to get real about what works and what does not.

June 26 to 29, Mercury in Leo puts good timing on your side.  By month’s end, you can make a good turnaround for yourself. Due to a retrograde tour (July 18 to August 11) Mercury in Leo extends to September 2. This transit spotlights your social world and on someone special to you. Are you having fun, feeling the love, the joy? Matters of heart and your happiness quotient gets more attention. By all means, gift yourself more.

Through September/October, Saturn and Neptune in Aries are on a test pilot track. A new evaluation process is underway, especially regarding your essential needs. How well do you function alone or on your own? Do you have faith in your abilities or your future? Rising to the challenge of a new life chapter can be daunting at first. As is typical of a Saturn transit, getting something new off the ground can take added effort, courage, and the test of time. Dedicate yourself to today’s work and you will set yourself up for tomorrow’s gain. The last time Saturn was in Aries was 1996 – 1999. What started for you then? You can be at full circle with that now.

Over the past 10 months, Saturn has also been working with Jupiter (by dynamic or square aspect). This planetary pair frames a 20-year cycle of social and economic development. The current construction project began on the solstice of Dec 21,2020. Since last August, Saturn/Jupiter have been held up at the quarter turn post (the five-year mark) since last August. The reason for this has been to allow for the variables to surface, and akin to bubbles expending themselves, to dissolve what doesn’t hold enough life force to make the grade. We have witnessed this process through the uncertainties that have populated daily reality.

Jupiter in Cancer (starting June 9) sets you onto a one-year growth track of significance. It is an emotional journey to be sure.  The transit increases your intuitive awareness and heightens responsiveness to others and to the world around you. Write a book, write music, (make a baby) – creative projects are favored. A special relationship bond can form or grow (lover, or child). Jupiter in Cancer increases all matters pertaining to safety, security, self care, home, family and the past. Over this next year, you’ll learn a lot more about yourself than you knew previously. Watch the full moon June 11 for a “take flight/set wheels in motion” moment.

On June 15, Saturn and Jupiter will meet for the final of three rounds (exact square alignments). For the first two meet ups, Saturn was in transit through Pisces, Jupiter was in transit through Gemini.  The friction between these mutable sign placements has kept the action in state of continuous flux. For this last meeting, both planets are at the start of tours through cardinal (activating, instigating) signs. Also on June 15, Mars/Uranus (square aspect) provides added kick to the action track. Mars/Uranus is a sudden, disruptive, and out of the blue pairing. It can produce a stroke of genius, added excitement, opportunity, stress, or volatility. A breakthrough or heated moment (a break up) are also within the Mars/Uranus scope.  Watch this mid month date for something to mobilize, trigger, or catapult something of significance. At the very least, this date could mark the end of the school semester, a project, work contract, or a health chapter, and the start of a next phase of action.

June 15, Saturn/Jupiter move you past the invisible barrier and through the starting gate of what was and what is now. It is a time of reaping and of planting.

Mars tours Virgo from June 17 to August 6. The focus is on repairs, upgrades, improvements and your to-do list. That could include resuming a project, or ditching time and money wasters (people included). Mercury in Leo, starting June 26, helps you to make the most of what you have to work with. July 18 to August 11, Mercury will tour retrograde. This transit could see you repeat a success, reconnect, or resume.
