Venus, commonly known as the planet of love is prominent this week bringing forth a lot of interaction in a personal way. In addition to love this planet instigates all forms of social interaction, friendships, affection and creativity. The Quarter Moon in Libra that relates emphasizes relationships of numerous types where people connect one-to-one. How you’ve been connecting with others and where you are now is emphasized and up for consideration. More subtly social media has taken a toll on how and why you connect and has put a strain on those connections. The intensity of bias and neediness in major areas of society has caused pressure and made it more challenging to positively maintain. Expanding your consciousness can help to keep and salvage meaningful relationships so all isn’t lost. Of course, change is a byproduct of these times so gentle evaluation helps to know you maintain healthy connections. Creatively you may hatch some interesting perspectives and extend your network. As well taking time to connect with what you desire and your personal interests can be empowering. You may have put your creativity on the back burner that still beacons. Maybe you’ve put aside your art, your music and whatever you love to do. Interests in what you enjoy can also be empowering but also healing.

 So here we go! Now, having past the line of demarcation, the Summer Solstice, toward the remainder

of the year, eclipses and several shifts and turns of major retrograde planets we move into deeper waters of the divine. As always, my motivation is to offer insight you can use to be more in sync with the grater harmony of the universe and also practically plan ways to have everything work more favorably for you.

July right away brings Neptune Retrograde in Pisces where it will be for five months awakening the mystery of life in a number of ways that for each personally will be a significant journey inward to places known and unknown within your mind as for each it opens specific doors where you need awareness before veiled. During this year for some there have been mysteries as to why specific events happened, for others there’s an awakening of other lifetimes and generally the soul of each feel a call to a higher order.

In July Mercury and Venus move into Leo while Mars goes into Gemini. Leo is prominent due to the Sun transiting there for a while that reinforces Mercury and Venus placements. You’re prompted to think about yourself as an entity and seen more as someone with purpose and embracing a higher aspect as a soul. In part it’s the mass communication shift and also personally shifts perspectives for you socially and possibly more personally. Certain realizations come into play that helps you to revamp you life in relation to anything from how you spend social time to allegiances.

This is another week to find time to retreat and go within for solace, rest and personal enlightenment. Once the Full Moon peaked last week it began its darkening phase along with the solstice that has begun shorter and darker days as we approach autumn reflecting many types of shadows. Mercury, planet of communication forms positive alignments that enhance your mental capacity to connect both inward and in the outer world reaching whatever way you find best. Learning and garnering knowledge is right there. Venus and Mars also make it easier to understand and work with relationships as you choose to be involved. A key energy right now is “mellow” as it defines not just needs but also how matters easily unfold. Whatever is happening in the world, you may ideally use this cycle to restore vitality to sustain you for the rest of the year. Saturn retrogrades in Pisces that takes you back into mysteries within.

Meditation, prayer time, sleep and sheltering are all favored.

JUPITER ENTERS GENMINI MAY 25 -JUNE 9, 2025

Jupiter, also known as Jove is the planet that resonates the best of life as

it expands good and eases harshness. Good fortune and opportunity are common factors it generates. The downside is that the expansion can has a tendency to go too far, so indulgence would be where caution should be exercised, otherwise this is an excellent shift for many as it transits for the next year in Gemini beginning on May 25, 2024 until June of 2025.

While in Taurus it led to all manner of activity relating to indulgence as many dived into spending sprees and wild times as if there was no tomorrow which now should begin to settle down in some areas with a shift toward activities relating to communication and networking. Ideas and mental stimulus flows along with utilization of technology with an ability to mentally soar to new heights. Travel is in the mix giving travel industries such as airlines, ships and every way we seek to be on the move will see a boost. Mass transit may excel and be more embraced. Communication can take on a new level of advancement as people are busier reaching out and making connections. It’s good to have plans and ideas about what you want to do as multitasking could get out of hand.  

Gemini is a dual sign (the twins) so focus may be called for as some could become scattered and try to do too much at once. Planning and staying on task will help to make the best of this celestial ray. Options and choices are great except that it may become a quandary as to which, when and how to choose what’s best. There may be choosing to do more than one thing such as activating an avocation along with a career or splitting time between two careers. A hobby might take on a more significant role. Overall, people will be pondering, thinking intensely, and contemplating all avenues of life from daily living to beliefs and higher aspirations. Being on the go and cerebral activity is in high gear. It’s important to find your neich as a way of being grounded. New heights relating to relating to every form of media will unfold. Satellites may be more prominent as they fill the skies.

Knowing where Jupiter travels through your personal chart gives specific information about influence. Here are a few key ideas.
