Say What You Mean, and Mean What You Say

Before 06/06/2023 to After 07/05/2023 | Exact: Jun 17, 2023

Communication, thought processes, logic and learning are all favorably highlighted for the coming year. Opportunities to improve in all these areas will come your way; your job is to be alert and capitalize on them. You're capable of learning a lot, so this would be an excellent time to take a class or undertake any type of structured learning program, because you respond favorably to a step-by-step logical process, especially if it includes a degree or certificate at the end of the program. You have the discipline and concentration needed for success in learning; even self-directed learning is beneficial for you now. If you want to improve your writing skills, now would be a good time to do that; ask for help from someone more experienced than you, who can give you good advice. And remember: The most important step you can take in improving in these areas is practice! Set aside time every day to work toward your new goal. Your ability to communicate also improves under this influence, so make it a point to speak clearly. Take a moment to make sure others have understood you and that you understand them. Say what you mean and mean what you say.

Dig Deep

Before 06/06/2023 to Jun 7 | Exact: Jun 6, 2023

This is a good time to grab a task by the horns and get it done. You're not in the mood for any nonsense, and you're ready to clean up and clean out any long-standing problems you've been dealing with. Rededicate yourself to physical exercise now. You can easily see beneath the surface this week -- below the surface of the task, your relationships or any other aspect of your life. You require honesty now in all your interactions; you're looking for authenticity of emotion and experience, even if you're just buying groceries! Whether it's with someone you've loved a long time or someone you just met, someone in your personal life or related to your work, you want to connect at a deep and human level. This intensity will probably impress them; they'll appreciate how real you are, and how accessible. This is also a great time to get in touch with yourself as well as with other people. You'll learn more than you might think possible, just by writing in a journal or having a deep conversation with a friend; and these are lessons you'll take with you into your future. And whatever it is that you learn, it will help you to meet life with renewed vigor and determination.

Advances in Relationship

Before 06/06/2023 to Jun 6

Love and physical affection are at the forefront during this three-week period. The current energy heightens your sexual passions, but not in a way that you can't handle, or that will get you into trouble. Instead, this is just a really nice time to show someone how you feel about them -- physically, if possible. If you're single, that might not be possible, and that's okay; you can easily and happily redirect your passions and accomplish an amazing amount of work. If your work is creative, this could be an especially productive time for you. But if you do have a steady partner, don't waste this opportunity to seduce them with your love! You can spread your good energy to the people around you, sparking up the good times for everyone. Fun social events are also highlighted at this time, as is your creativity. So don't stay home alone, especially if you're romantically unattached. Get out on the town; throw a party, or attend one; go to a nightclub and get hot and sweaty out on the dance floor with your friends. Who knows? Maybe you'll run into someone cute, with promise! And if not, you'll still have a memorable experience that you can look back on with a grin.

Take Some Down Time

From Jun 13 to Jun 17 | Exact: Jun 16, 2023

These few weeks offer the perfect opportunity to reach out to someone you love, whether it's a friend, a family member or someone cute and special. Your ego has taken a back seat to your sympathetic side, and you're all ears for others' concerns, problems and thoughts in general. Also, you just want to connect and have fun with the people you love best. You're not too worried about being the center of attention now, and you're all about enjoying the people around you, so you'll be a favorite at work, parties and other get-togethers, because you're such a great audience! You're listening and tuning in well, and you're really demonstrating how much you appreciate your friends and coworkers. You're feeling much more helpful than usual, too; you might stay late at work to finish things up or do some extra housework to make it that much nicer for everyone. Just make sure that you don't start patting yourself on the back too much for your newfound compassion and helpful energy! This transit is relatively short, after all. Just do your good works and don't expect anyone's admiration or thanks -- especially not your own -- and you'll be fine.

Venus trine Venus

Making Money and Connections

From Jun 13 to Jun 16 | Exact: Jun 14, 2023

You're in luck this week! Money is flowing and romance is in the air, and something wonderful could happen in either or both of these arenas. Best of all, anything positive that happens in your finances or your love life will have good effects that ripple outward like a pebble thrown into a pond. Now is the perfect time to connect with someone at work or in your social life that you've been thinking about a lot lately. Money matters and social events should go even more smoothly than usual, as will contract negotiations and other projects at work. Your career could really jump up a level or two now, but at the very least, your boss or your clients will be impressed with the charm and ease with which you facilitate meetings or negotiations, and they'll remember these qualities later. Hard work isn't really on your agenda now, but that's fine -- you're contributing something else that's valuable. And besides, all work and no play...well, you know the saying! Now's the time for good feelings, and spreading them around. Get together with friends for dinner, a shopping trip or a night out on the town. A mood like this is too good to waste.

Jupiter trine Mercury

The Power of Positive Thinking

From Jun 15 to Jun 30 | Exact: Jun 19, 2023

You now have the power to inspire others with your broad view and positive outlook. Your Big Picture can get quite a bit bigger during this period, especially if you take specific steps to help that happen: Take a class in a new subject, read a mind-blowing book or teach something yourself. Your mind is stimulated, working faster than normal, and you should take advantage of your perceptiveness. Not only are your communications enhanced, but also your ability to succeed in commerce and business dealings; so by all means, schedule important professional meetings now, and don't hesitate to initiate new contacts and partnerships. Endeavors started now should work out positively for you. This energy only comes along every six years or so, so you should take advantage of it while it's here for you. You're likely to feel fairly optimistic about the future so you'll be motivated to work toward it. Now is a wonderful time to see not only the big plan, but also to pin down the details. If you are able to vacation in an area where you've never been before, you may be surprised by how much you learn, or the opportunities there that you didn't expect.

Hard Work With Good Results

From Jun 16 to Jun 18 | Exact: Jun 17, 2023

This week is a great time to think about your goals in life and start moving toward them. You have the energy and the stamina needed to make changes both great and small now, and whatever effort you make will act like a pebble tossed into a pond -- it will send out ripples of influence that will positively affect every area of your life. So take a minute to decide what needs changing or revamping in your life. Does your exercise regime need an overhaul? Do you need to step things up at the office, maybe in hopes of a promotion or a raise? Do your relationships with friends or family need some new spark? Or do you need to change something about your own attitude? Don't overlook this opportunity to bring about wonderful changes within yourself as well as in your life in general, because you've got a unique chance now to make things happen. Bringing more intensity to whatever you do -- work, exercise, relating with the people you love -- will have a great effect. Just by putting out more positive energy into the world, you'll actually feel more energized! And you'll come through this period feeling rejuvenated and closer to the person you want to be.

Mercury sextile Mars

Dynamo

From Jun 17 to Jun 17

Mental and physical energies combine this week to make you a dynamo. You feel youthful and energetic, more alive than you have in months. You're clear-headed and quick-witted, active and smart. You're thinking and expressing yourself with clarity, speaking with conviction and successfully infusing your comments with jokes and humor. You even put your money where your mouth is by following through on all your promises without delay. Ideas flow easily from your brain out of your mouth or fingers in eloquent language, logical and sensible. Your enthusiastic delivery easily convinces others of your ideas, so this is an excellent time for sales and marketing, promoting yourself or making announcements. People will pay attention to your ideas and want to join your endeavors, something to take advantage of! Don't forget to keep up your exercise. You'll be so full of energy that it will likely be a necessity anyway, and you might even work out a little longer than usual to provide more of a physical outlet for your mental energy.

Mercury trine Pluto

Digging Into the Unknown

From Jun 19 to Jun 20 | Exact: Jun 20, 2023

You're an unstoppable mental force this week. There's no task you can't conquer, no concept you can't probe to its very core. Your powers of observation and persuasion are at a peak now, something you can decidedly use to your advantage. When you talk, people listen. When you ask for something, you get it. When you try to find something, you succeed. Your mind is acute and your ability to analyze a situation or a person can't be beat. Deep conversations with friends or a romantic partner will move your relationship to a more meaningful and intimate place, for not only are you able to perceive and identify psychological processes, you also notice and pick up on small clues and details, understanding their meaning and weaving them into the bigger picture. In general, this is an excellent time to probe into mysteries or other things unseen. You can discern much more easily than usual what's true and what's false, a valuable skill when working with concepts that can't be proven or disproven by usual methods.

Mars trine Sun

Physical Prime Time

From Jun 20 to Jun 24 | Exact: Jun 21, 2023

Refocus your efforts during this three-week period on a project that you've already started, such as your exercise program, competitive athletics or some other major physical task that still needs work, because your energy is running high and you've got extra stores of stamina that are coming seemingly out of nowhere. Not only are you physically primed now, you're also very much in touch with your opinions and values, and you're willing to talk about them in an open and animated way that won't offend anyone -- but also a way that will clearly represent who you are and what you stand for. Your assertion energies are up, too, and you have the ability to demonstrate leadership and make instant executive decisions, so if there is a business relationship you've wanted to further or a project you've been dreaming of helming, now's the time to step up to the plate. Now's your time to make things happen, so don't stay home, vegging in front of the TV. Your social life could pick up now too; you're projecting positive energy and people will probably flock to you like moths to a flame. So don't squander the energy and drive you feel during these three weeks!

Sun sextile Saturn

Keeping on Track

From Jun 21 to Jun 22

This week should go well for you, because you are able to focus your vitality and energy on achieving your goals and long-range plans, including your exercise program. You can work well by yourself, but this is also a great time to advance your business interests with others, because you're in a very sensible and practical frame of mind. Other people will see these qualities in you and appreciate them, especially your boss or your clients. You're more organized than usual; you're able to concentrate and focus for long periods of time, and to sort out your priorities. At work, you can come to a satisfying conclusion on a long-term project. Furthermore, you should write down the goals and plans you determine this week; this list will serve as a great blueprint for organizing your work in the coming months. One thing is for sure -- you're not in the mood for frivolity right now, so don't push yourself to be lighthearted and sociable. Instead, you can buckle down, make some really good, solid progress on long-term projects, and save the cutting loose for next week or whenever it is that you're once again in the mood to relax and catch up with friends.

Venus trine Neptune

TLC

From Jun 21 to Jun 24 | Exact: Jun 23, 2023

Work may be out the window this week, but that's okay -- you're in a good mood regardless. You're feeling dreamy and spiritual, connected to everyone around you. Your loved ones take on special significance now, and you might get in touch all over again with how much you care about them and why. Your creativity is running strong now, so this could be a really productive period. If not, don't expect too much of yourself. You're more into daydreams than you are reality, which can help you tune in to other people at a deeper level than usual -- your intuition is humming now in a way that it doesn't usually. But you also might be reading ideas that aren't really there -- pure products of your own imagination. If an important issue comes up with a friend or at work, make sure you check with the other people involved before you make any assumptions, because it's very possible that you've completely misread the situation. But this transit isn't about trouble, so even if that happens, it probably won't be a big deal. Look out for new friends or even sweethearts at this time; a relationship could begin now that's special to you, or at least fun in the moment.

Venus sextile Pluto

Making Relationships Count

From Jun 23 to Jun 24

Your emotions and your passions are running in parallel this week, and all relationships are highlighted. Established relationships can get much deeper during this period, and new ones can progress with amazing speed and intensity. You may meet someone new who really intrigues you, or step up an existing relationship to the next level in a way that thrills you both. You're also good now at lending not only an ear to a friend in need, but lending your advice as well. You might tell them something they don't want to hear, but ultimately your perspective will be for the best. Just use your natural charm to help smooth the lesson. In these various ways, this could be a somewhat uncomfortable period, but it will be an interesting one in any case -- and a passionate one, too! Your ability to get straight to the point now makes you a surprising and compelling force in anyone's life, be it your friends, your loved ones or that special someone. You might get into intense discussions that make both of you uncomfortable as you face the deepest, darkest corners of your personalities, but the experience will ultimately be both enlightening and fulfilling.

Mercury sextile Saturn

Long Hours, Thinking Hard

From Jun 26 to Jun 26

The urge to think seriously and soberly is strong now. You can't be bothered with anything fluffy, silly or amusing. Time is of the essence, you feel, and you don't want to waste your efforts on activities that aren't practical or productive. They're going to love you at work, because your discerning and analytical methods, not to mention your discipline and long hours, will produce valuable results. You're organized, efficient and clear-headed. Your output is logical and well thought out. Planning is your forte right now, so take this opportunity to scope out future projects, develop task lists and determine if the plan if viable. If there's one thing you hate, it's wasted work, and you can head that off at the pass right now with your keen vision and determination. You speak with conviction now, if not volume, so those who are wise will listen to your ideas and implement them. You don't have to worry about squandering this energy: Your inner parent won't let you!

Venus trine Sun

Show Your Best Side

From Jun 26 to Jun 29 | Exact: Jun 27, 2023

This will be a pleasant, easy week for you. You might not get a lot of work done, but that's okay; you're more in the mood to connect with the people around you than you are to put your head down and focus. You feel great -- vital, confident, friendly, just alive -- and you look great, too! All that positive energy is oozing out, and everyone around you is taking notice. You can make some great connections this week, both professional and personal ones. Your good humor will help facilitate projects and mergers at work as much as it will keep things fun at home, and with your friends. Could there even be a fun, romantic date on the horizon? You're certainly in the mood for it, and you'll definitely be able to charm that sweetie. Whatever you do, get together in groups. Take a date to an art gallery opening, or go out to dinner with a big group of friends, to a place where you can share dishes and talk and laugh as heartily as you want. And call up someone special -- someone in your family, or an old friend. You can lift their heart and their spirits just by letting them know you love them. Better yet, bring them a gift for no particular reason except your love!

Intellectual Breakthroughs

From Jul 2 to Jul 3 | Exact: Jul 3, 2023

Your mind is lighting up with interesting insights and inspired visions. You feel more mentally alive and intellectually focused than you have in a long time, because this influence comes around only twice a year, and usually marks an exciting period when you move a lot of information around in new and innovative ways. Curious and always seeking a new way of seeing things, you're able this week to create fascinating connections and bring together details and theories in a refreshing vision, describing vivid detail in terms of an overarching structure. This is an excellent time to brainstorm with others. You'll create a lightning rod of ideas, enticing everyone to think outside the box and come up with fresh new concepts -- which will in turn lead to more questions and other new ideas, in a session that will create many suggestions and possibilities. Later, you can sort through them and decide which ones are practical. Today, your mission is to inspire creative thought in yourself and others, something that you'll do with excitement and aplomb.

Sun trine Uranus

Ahead of Your Time

From Jul 4 to After 07/05/2023 | Exact: Jul 5, 2023

Usually, you go through life trying to get along with the people around you. To whatever extent, you avoid rocking the boat, at work or at home. But you can't keep quiet all the time! Your instincts now are leading you in new directions, and instead of talking yourself out of your strange new urges, you should follow them. What could it hurt, in the long run? As long as you don't do anything too drastic, it's okay to begin a new, more interesting project at work, or to suggest that instead of going out for Chinese food like usual, you and your friends try something more exotic. Anything new you try at this time is likely to be cutting-edge and forward-thinking. Will it prove to be long-lasting? Who knows, but one thing is sure -- if your ideas do come to fruition, people will say later that you were way ahead of your time! Pay attention to flashes of inspiration you receive now, as they may be more important than you realize. A new solution to an old problem could occur to you, or an idea or invention so innovative and perfect that you'll be the envy of others. Enjoy this brief period of liberation and freedom; learn all you can and indulge your curiosity.

Just Do It!

From Jun 8 to Jun 13 | Exact: Jun 9, 2023

You will have no shortage of energy or initiative at this time, which is a good thing -- this transit is all about new beginnings, getting things started that you're going to want to pursue for some time to come, especially things that only you can do. So launch a new project at work, or start building some shelves or a table or a dog house at home. You need to be using your muscles now as well as your brain; that means vegging out in front of the TV is out, and vigorous exercise, hard work and even good, old-fashioned sex are in. You will definitely need some type of outlet for your energies, because if you don't find one, you could get really restless, even irritable -- and maybe even accident-prone or argumentative. Try not to take your frustrations out on your boss, your friends or your sweetie; remind yourself to choose your battles instead of just jumping into the fray, willy-nilly. But your energy will be much better used on constructive projects than in pointless run-ins with people that you should be treating with respect, so find a project and begin it. Or go for a run, or get a great workout on a punching bag at the gym. Whatever it is, just do something!

Venus conjunct Mars

Magnetic Attraction

From Jun 15 to Jun 18 | Exact: Jun 18, 2023

Your passionate side will be stimulated this week, as if it needed any stimulation! Whatever you want -- a date with someone special, a raise or promotion, or to be put in charge of a new project at work -- it's yours, because you're in a go-for-it mood. Yet somehow, you're still able to be tactful and charming, even when you're going after what you want. You won't step on anyone's toes in your pursuit, because you're still tuned in to the people around you, even though you're most interested in your own agenda. This is the good kind of selfishness -- the kind where you know what you want and how to get it, but you're not interested in running people over like a steamroller on your drive to the top. This is partly because harmony is just one of your many goals at this time; you're as interested in everyone around you feeling good and getting along as you are in reaching your own goals. Excitement is probably one of your goals now, so make some time to get out on the town and create it. A date with someone really cute and interesting would definitely fit the bill! So would a dinner of spicy food and some hilarious, off-color conversation with good friends.

Sun conjunct Jupiter

The Power of Positive Action

From Jun 21 to Jun 24 | Exact: Jun 24, 2023

This should be one of the best weeks of the year for you! You're feeling wonderful -- luck is on your side and one opportunity after another pops up. Good things seem to drop right into your lap -- but you know what? It's not just luck: It's that you're tuned in to those opportunities, and you're actually reaching out and grabbing hold of them. That's the only difference between now and any other period of your life; you have a can-do attitude that makes things happen. You should never underestimate the power of positive thinking! There's no better time to give liberally to those in need, because your acts of good will and generosity will ripple far beyond your expectations. But there is one thing to be cautious of: Don't be overbearing. If you sweep in and offer to fix everyone's problems, people might think you're being arrogant and presumptuous. Your self-assurance could look like superiority, your confidence like self-righteousness. But if this happens, just keep on keeping on, spreading the wealth around as best you can. This period is the perfect time to seal deals at work; you can expand your professional horizons easily now if you want to.

Mercury conjunct Jupiter

An Opening of the Mind

From Jun 27 to Jun 27

Curiosity killed the cat, or so they say, but that won't be the case with you this week. Your curiosity is strongly stimulated now, giving you an insatiable thirst for more input, but it's not likely to get you into much trouble. Instead, you'll be in a lofty head space, with expanded perceptions and inspired ideas. Your mind will not be on the mundane; instead you'll be thinking about your Big Picture, and it's very possible that information that comes to you this week will make that picture bigger still! Philosophy, world religion, your place in the grand scheme of things...yes, your mind is wandering hither, thither and yon under this influence. You'll be more than happy to talk about it, too, to anyone who's willing to listen. Be careful you don't talk their ear off! Another cautionary tale in the communication department: no fish stories. You know, the kind where the fish you caught gets bigger and bigger each time you tell the story? Watch this tendency to exaggerate and you'll be fine. Definitely take advantage of this opening of the mind to learn or teach as much as you can.

Cloudy Judgment

Before 06/06/2023 to Jun 7 | Exact: Jun 6, 2023

Even if you get a strong feeling about someone or something this week, you're better off holding back and taking your time to investigate before making any moves or decisions. That could be a tall order for you, especially if you're used to being decisive or to following your instincts, but the problem is, your instincts are sending you mixed messages, and you might follow the wrong one. You might think you're seeing things as they are, but later you'll realize that things are really different from what you thought they were. For this reason, don't quit your job or take a new one, make a commitment to a lover or break things off, or make any other big, life-changing decision until you're sure you really know what's going on. The good news is, this confusion is going to clear up in a week or so, and you'll be able to make the assessment you need. But for now, you're not operating on all your cylinders, which means you shouldn't be operating at all. Take a break from business and other projects, and get a little alone time. Reading, naps and movies are all great ways to stimulate your imagination while passing the time until you're more clear-headed.

Sun opposite Sun

Back and Forth

From Jun 8 to Jun 11 | Exact: Jun 9, 2023

You may feel as though you're on a seesaw, with wild swings of physical energy and possible confrontations with others pushing your moods up and down and back again. The vibe right now is an odd one; you'll either respond with a strange sort of interest in the proceedings, or with pure annoyance and dismay. You could find yourself in a power play with someone else, most likely an authority figure -- someone you know, like your boss, or maybe someone you don't know, like a police officer. Whatever the interaction turns out to be, you'll have mixed feelings about it, because you'll feel both respect and aggravation toward them. Whatever happens, try to let things roll off your back for the next week or so, because this period of time just isn't going to be a comfortable one. Anything or anyone that looks too different from what you're used to will get your back up, and your defenses. But if you're into challenges, debates and arguments, go ahead -- stand up and defend yourself! You'll learn a lot and develop some personal strength along the way. The energy of this transit is all about an interesting, even uncomfortable challenge.

Taking a Dim View

From Jun 10 to Jun 11 | Exact: Jun 11, 2023

There's no way anyone is going to pull anything over on you this week; you recognize deception and lies from a mile away, and don't hesitate to say so. Some may call you cynical, but you know it is simply healthy skepticism. One little problem with your dim view of the world is that is can lead to a temporary depression or feeling grumpy for a good deal of the time. Fortunately this influence is short-lived! So don't permit yourself to get too far down that deep, dark hole. Instead, apply some of your self-discipline to your writing, speaking and networking. Keep plugging away on projects that are already started -- you'll make a lot more progress than you think. Slow, careful thinking and communication are the keys to turning this challenge into success. Speak in short sentences and one-syllable words, and clarify any misunderstandings right away. The results you receive from this period may be delayed, but don't let that worry you. When the time is right, they will come.

Wear Your Helmet

From Jun 11 to Jun 15 | Exact: Jun 13, 2023

Wear your helmet and protective gear for the next three weeks, and duck if you see something flying your way. You're a bit reckless now and more than a little impulsive, and the people around you could get really frustrated with your new propensity for stirring up trouble. Your need for independence has skyrocketed all of a sudden, and you won't sit still for any type of constraint. New people could come into your life now, in work or out on the town, and you might want to get involved with them solely based on the fact that they're offering something new -- and you won't even stop to consider whether getting involved is really wise. A change of scenery can be a good thing, but if it means that you'll put your romantic or business relationships in jeopardy, stop and ask yourself -- is it really worth it? After all, this restless energy will pass in a few weeks, and then where will you be? If you're not careful, you'll end up with a bunch of damaged relationships that need mending, and that's just for starters. Instead of taking things that far, try to incorporate some positive changes in your life, and don't take offense where none was intended.

Mercury opposite Venus

Ideas Versus Ideals

From Jun 15 to Jun 16 | Exact: Jun 16, 2023

Your head and your heart may not quite align this week. You may find that some of your thoughts and conclusions don't exactly coincide with what you believe in your heart of hearts. It's possible that this could come to your attention through a discussion, or even an argument, with another person over principles and ideals -- what's convenient versus what's right. You may even have trouble arguing effectively, confusing the matter by not listening well or projecting your own beliefs or thoughts onto the other person. Misunderstandings are sure to result when this is the case, because you just can't seem to hear what the other person is actually saying! Pile this on top of your own cloudy judgment, and you've got a recipe for a real quarrel. It's not necessary, though. For one thing, this influence is short, lasting only a few days. For another, now that you're aware that misunderstandings are in the weather forecast, keep your umbrella handy. If you see that a conversation is turning into an argument, agree to disagree early on, or to take up the matter later when you've had more time to think about it.

Mercury opposite Neptune

A Leak in Your Mind

From Jun 19 to Jun 19

Try as you might, you can't seem to keep your focus on anything. Your thoughts all seem to fly right out the window, especially when you're trying to talk to someone! Somehow the boundaries between you and the other person seem to meld and merge, and all of a sudden you feel like you're in their shoes, which makes it really difficult to express your own point of view. Therefore, this is not a good week to try to have a serious conversation with anyone. You're not expressing yourself as well as you usually do, and misunderstandings could very easily arise, on your side or theirs. Since you're not feeling particularly energetic or strong, others perceive weakness in you and might try to take advantage. It's also possible that you could see or hear an offer that seems too good to be true, and since your usual filters aren't working so well, you might actually fall for a fly-by-night scheme -- which you'll regret when you find out all the facts at a later time. So, forewarned is forearmed. Don't be too hard on yourself this week, and next week you'll feel a lot better.

Because I Want To

From Jun 19 to Jun 22 | Exact: Jun 21, 2023

Don't be surprised if people accuse you of acting like a spoiled brat this week. You're feeling flirty and restless, and you're not in the mood to put up with the same old stuff -- even if it's stuff you normally like. 'Because I want to' suddenly becomes a good enough reason to do just about anything that pops into your head, and you can see the problem with that! If you follow all your impulses, they'll probably lead you in directions you won't like. And you'll almost certainly make someone around you feel put out with you, whether it's your boss, because you just didn't feel like showing up to work this morning, or your date, because you wandered off to talk to someone else at the party while they stood there alone, waiting for you to come back. Of course, ticking off someone close to you might not be such a bad thing, at least not for you; the tension and negative energy zinging around could actually seem interesting...at least, until it's time to get serious and clean up the mess you've made of your relationships. Why not try to take it a little easier on your friends and coworkers? Not everyone's in the same devil-may-care mood that you're in!

Miscommunication Blues

From Jun 21 to Jun 21

Don't be surprised if you have a misunderstanding or miscommunication with a significant other during the next few days, whether it's with your boss, sweetie, an important friend or even an authority figure. This transit indicates that you're neither speaking nor listening with your usual attention to detail. You may think you're saying your piece clearly, only to find out later that the other person completely misconstrued what you were trying to say. The opposite can happen, too: You're sure you've heard and understood what someone else is trying to say to you, only to discover that you weren't on the same wavelength after all, and what they said or meant was nothing close to what you heard. The solution to these communication blues? Listen with extreme care. Rephrase what you think you heard, so you give your conversation partner a chance to clarify anything you don't understand. Ask them to do the same. Taking a few simple steps like these will go far in reducing the miscommunications that are possible during this influence.

Explain and Listen

From Jun 27 to Jun 29 | Exact: Jun 28, 2023

Your thoughts, opinions and statements may be challenged this week, and you may not know quite how to respond. While social events are not out of the question, you'll find that others will express very different opinions than yours, and lively debates, or even arguments, can ensue. Conversation probably isn't going to flow easily; you or they will take offense and hurt feelings are likely. Your mind isn't as sparklingly clear as usual, and it's as if your tongue is tied in knots! You've definitely got foot-in-mouth disease this week, and if you're talking to someone who doesn't know you that well, like your boss or a potential new friend, you might be better off just keeping quieter than usual. Or, another way to deal with this period might be to trust in yourself. Don't let others' challenges or opinions muddle your own thinking. Explain yourself -- you're more articulate than you think -- and calmly listen to ideas that differ from your own. You may find that as your mind expands to entertain new concepts, you increase your tolerance and understanding as well. Use this time to express yourself clearly and listen carefully to ideas that are not your own.

Verbal Opposition

From Jun 30 to Jun 30

You're not in the mood to be crossed for these few days, and you may well find yourself in an argument or debate. If it were just a friendly discussion between two people who have different viewpoints, that would be one thing. In the best of all worlds, you could learn from each other and increase your own perspective. But what's more likely to happen is that both parties will dig in, feeling righteous and oh-so-virtuous about their ideas, unable to entertain any concepts that fall outside their narrow philosophy. Don't let this happen to you! Rather than engaging in verbal combat or deriding anyone else for their viewpoints, consciously turn off your inner judge. Listen. Walk a mile in the other person's shoes -- without expecting them to walk a mile in yours! The more mental flexibility you develop now, the better you'll be in the long run. This is a great opportunity to learn to be attentive to ideas and concepts that are foreign to you. It doesn't mean you have to embrace them, just entertain them. The mental growth you experience will be well worth the words you bite back.

Mental Obsessions

From Jul 3 to Jul 4 | Exact: Jul 4, 2023

'Don't believe everything that you read, or hear.' That's your motto for the week, and you're sticking to it. In fact, you don't believe anything that you read or hear! That skeptical outlook can be attributed to this short but intense influence which comes around for a few days twice a year. You're suspicious of everyone's motivations, and may even latch obsessively onto a thought, idea or concept, such as a political event or even a personal matter. The problem is, you're attached and you won't let go. You probe and dig and dig some more until you're in a deep ditch. There you sit, overanalyzing and obsessing on something you can do nothing about -- and herein lies the key to avoiding the temporary dangers of this transit. Remember the old saying about accepting the things you cannot change? If ever there was a time to utilize that thought, it's now. Also, avoid getting into arguments with authority figures. You can't win right now. Lay low, work hard and mind your own business, and you'll be through this tough week before you know it.

I hope you have enjoyed the valuable insight, wisdom and guidance of this astrology report. You might be a little curious about astrology and perhaps wondering how an astrologer can know so much about you!

Astrology is a mathematical system. It's all about applying meaning to numbers, or more specifically, finding meaning in the movements of the planets around the Sun, as viewed from our perspective here on earth. These planetary movements are easily captured and recorded with measurements, calculations, angles and so on.

That's why astrology works so well with computers, whose programs are also based on numbers and formulas. In 'the old days' -- thousands of years ago, when astrology was first recorded -- those early astrologers had to painstakingly observe the heavens and catalog their observations for the next generation of astrologers to build upon. Thank goodness for the computer age! Now we can simply use computers to make those calculations quickly and pull just the applicable pieces of information. Now, astrology is instant, based upon thousands of years of observations obtained through careful methodology.

Interpretations of planetary positions are based in part on ancient Greek and Roman mythology, but your astrological report is unique, describing you and you only. Even in the case of twin siblings, their birth charts differ from each other's in at least a few ways. And besides, no one amounts to just a simple interpretation of their birth chart; everyone's personality is complex. Your astrological report leaves plenty of room for variations based on your free will, personal growth and transformation over a lifetime.

Just like you, your astrological report is unique. It’s generated online in seconds and provides you with instant insight at your fingertips. Whether you have a pressing question about your future or you just want some guidance and direction, now you can have it all -- in a fast, focused, all-about-you format.

You can choose from several different types to find the report that's right for you and your needs. Your natal report is all about you -- your unique characteristics, strengths, weaknesses, potential and so on. Compatibility reports analyze the connections between two different people, to see how well and in what ways they get along. And a forecast is based on where the planets are today and how they're affecting you, uniquely. Be sure to try a free sample of another report to find out more about you!
