It's a dizzying and sometimes confusing blend of energy that's tricky to get a hold of. But regardless of whether or not you can make sense of everything that's swirling about, the key is to act on what feels right to you and you alone, even if it looks strange to others. Mars the planet of action and drive is in the revolutionary sign of Aquarius and on June 27, he turns retrograde, allowing us to review how willing we've been to march to the beat of our own drum and how brave we feel about standing in our own uniqueness even if we're misunderstood.
The axis of Leo - Aquarius reminds us everyone in the collective gets to shine, and that without our willingness to stand out and be different, progress comes to a standstill. This month, challenge yourself to be in the chaotic mix and respond to in ways that feel authentic and true to you regardless of what's expected. In doing so, you'll see exactly what you're made of and how far you can go despite what the world may tell you. Click through the gallery below to learn what June has in store for your love, health, and career according to your zodiac sign:
Aries
June is a month of reflection and appreciating how far you've come since the beginning of the year, Aries. After slaying dragons and leveling up like a boss during the last six months, you get to wind down a bit and pay attention to your needs. If you've been feeling overworked or stressed from the amount of heavy lifting and obstacles you've had to overcome, use the first three weeks of June to decompress your mind, dump it out onto paper, document, and release your thoughts, as opposed to carrying it all in your head. Health is maintained by creating to-do lists that keep you on task but also leave you time to daydream and connect with your upcoming vision of the future.
Use the energy between June 5th through 7th to connect with close friends that you can confide in about what you want manifest next. The desire to lay low at home will be strong until around the 13th when Venus in Leo moves into your House of Romance and Creativity, pushing you to go out and fall inLovewith life again. It's okay to play, Aries. You're learning how to strike a healthy Careerand home balance that doesn't leave you drained or missing out on important family occasions. The Full Moon in the 28th will point out old patterns around your work that may have to be surrendered so that you can feel both fulfilled and challenged by the work that you do without it taking over your life completely.
Taurus
With Uranus shaking up your soul perspective,Health is maintained when you sit down to consider all the warring aspects of yourself that need to be satisfied so that you can function from a place of peace. There's you, your changing world view as you let go of limiting ideas of who you can be. There's Mars spending extra time and energy in your House of Career and Reputation pushing you to assert yourself in your work to make a mark and potentially throw hands at anyone who gets in your way (try not please, especially not during his retrograde starting June 27th).
And then there are your relationships with family, friends and lovers who're also demanding your time and attention. What's a steady, stable Bull to do, Taurus? The only response is to evolve with the demands and go with the flow, even if it pushes you out of your comfort zone. Venus the planet of Love will move into your Home sector on June 13th and demand that you take pride in where you've come from while also cherishing how a healthy homebase is the starting point for everything else in your life. Rest up as as you learn to juggle your changing reality. The pace will only pick up from here so it's best to prepare rather than deny the inevitable.
Gemini
June offers you the unique opportunity to look yourself in the eye and see if you like what you see, Gemini. The first week of the month has Neptune, the planet of Illusion and Spirituality touching upon your sense of self and the way that you communicate, so try not to get lost in the image of who you think you are, as it may not be the reality. Neptune is tricky as he can present our highest dreamlike possibilities of who we aspire to be and he can also present lies and fake news. Don't get caught up in falsehoods, especially when it comes to yourCareer and reputation. You can still be who you wish to be in the long-term without faking it or misleading yourself or others. Part of staying honest means learning to Loveand respect what you value without hesitation or regret. If it works for you, own it. If it doesn't, toss it.
The Full Moon on the 28th will have you noticing what patterns need to be ended around what you're passionate about and want to work for seriously, and how they relate to your beliefs and values. The secret to your Healthand peace of mind is being brave enough to stay in your own lane and not chase down what you think is the current wave. Sound like any other Geminis you know? Everything starts with you first. Decide who you want to be and the rest will follow.
Cancer
You're going to be chilling out for the first two weeks of the month, Cancer. After a few months of dealing with the heavy demands of relationships and career, it's time to plant a new dream for yourself going forward. The New Moon on the 13th will ask you to connect with your heart and soul for who and what you want to be next. You'll be better able to express yourself and communicate your needs in Love when Mercury enters your sign and has you speaking from the heart. You'll have to learn to stand your ground around the 16th when Saturn pushes back at you in the form of demanding, hard nosed people in your life who seem like they want to tell you "no" at every turn.
Don't take anything to heart, it's just a challenge to see if you can maintain your boundaries, as part of maintaining your Health requires you to know your limits and not overextend yourself trying to take care of other people's emotional needs and desires ahead of your own. Stay in your lane and stay in your own passion, Crab. Identify what you want, connect with your deeper drives and passions, and keep your eyes on your own paper. Keeping this internal focus will support you in your Career, as work becomes much easier when you're doing it for you as opposed to everyone else.
Leo
You get to enjoy rebranding yourself with Uranus electrifying your Career and reputation, Leo. As you envision what kind of impact you want to leave upon the world, you'll also have to consider who in your network is on the same page with you. The New Moon on the 13th will ask you to focus on what's the overarching hope and wish for the future and who will be by your side to assist you in making those wishes come true. Know that not everyone is going to agree with what you're dreaming of, and that's okay. Honesty is a form of Loveand with Mars spending time in your House of Partnership for the next few months, know that your lovers and partners will have no problem telling you what's what and how you can do better. Try not to fall into unnecessary fights because of bruised egos.
Ultimately, this is all for your growth even if ruffles your feathers. The Full Moon on the 28th will be highlighting your Healthand asking you to assess how your underlying fears and unwillingness to appear vulnerable to others may be blocking you from receiving the care that you need. Don't wait til the last minute to get your physical and emotional needs met, Leo. The name of the game is responsibility and accountability when it comes to your wellbeing. If you're feeling overstimulated, take a break from the world when you need to, I promise it won't fall apart without you.
Virgo
Congratulate yourself Virgo because you stuck to your creative principles even when it seemed like you were only getting but so far. June is the month that you can see clearly that your hard work is definitely paying off as you reach new heights in your Career. This is just the beginning for you, so be sure to use the New Moon in the 13th to set new intentions and goals about what you want to achieve next. Remind yourself that your work requires you to take your creativity and the things that bring you joy seriously, not as a side but as a main course. Mars in your House ofHealth and Daily Routines has been pushing you to get more done in unique ways so work with him but also pay attention to the snags you hit during your day to day, as well as how you feel in your body since his retrograde starting on the 27th will bring up these issues to be addressed.
There's a such thing as delegating and teamwork too just in case you're thinking that burnout is the only way to get thing done. It's not. Opening yourself up to being supported by others also brings in opportunities for love in your life, Virgo. It's a social month, so be amongst the people who share your interests and want to support you. The Full Moon tied up with serious Saturn in your House of Romance and Creativity on the 28th may have you letting go of old patterns that block your Love blessings so that you can finally get you the hugs, kisses, and giggles you've been missing out on.
Libra
Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on, Just keep on pressin' on is you mantra for the month Libra. Whatever you have in mind to claim for yourself can be achieved with patience and creativity. When it comes to Careeradvancements, it's a good idea to hit the books. The New Moon on the 13th in your House of Higher Learning may urge you to finally take that certification class you've been meaning to sign up for and do extra research just to see what's out there. Anything that broadens your possibilities and rewards you with additional wisdom and skill sets will be of benefit to you in the long term. You may want to pay attention to how emotionally fulfilled you feel around what you do on a day to day basis, do you enjoy your routines, do you value what you do, or are you just phoning it in?
YourHealthcan be impacted by living out of alignment with your own needs and overextending yourself to placate others. Mind your boundaries, Libra. Practice saying "yes" or "no" with authority and confidence. Mars will be encouraging you to review what brings you joy and pleasure when he retrogrades on the 27th ahead of the Full Moon. When's the last time you truly had fun and expressed yourself and what youLove without fear of seeming weird? Love is about taking risks and daring to be seen by others as you are. With the Full Moon, notice what old stories you've been holding onto since childhood that says you have to do X or be Y in order to get what you need and be successful. Chances are those stories aren't true any longer.
Scorpio
Let's take it back to your roots, Scorpio. Mars has been poking around in the underworld of your chart to bring up all matters related to your childhood memories, familial roots, and hidden motivations. This is your jam believe it or not, because the better you know yourself, the more you understand how you can help others transform and bring their darkness to the light. Do the sorting and the purging of old hurts, have those heated conversations with family members, and let it go as all this venting and processing will definitely give your Health a boost. There's no rush as Mars will go retrograde on the 27th and give you plenty of time to make sense of what you're feeling.
Connecting with your passion will definitely make Lovea lot easier for you this month as the grand trine in water at the top of the month and the New Moon on the 13th in your House of Secrets will urge you to open up and share what's on your heart without fear of rejection or abandonment. You're learning that things change, people come and go, and it doesn't mean anything about you. With Uranus electrifying your one on one relationships, you're learning the value of freedom as opposed to clinging to partnerships for security's sake alone. Lightening your emotional load means more energy left over for chasing yourCareerambitions, which should see a boost of luck as Venus blesses you with extra charm and grace on the world stage from the 13th onward. Pack light, Scorpio.
Sagittarius
You've been adulting so hard lately, Sag, that you might have forgotten that this whole life journey thing is meant to be fun. You're doing the work, you're being responsible, so congratulate yourself for your growing maturity and authority! However, you have to learn when to A.) Cut yourself some slack for being human and B.) Know when to ask for help. Because, guess what? Your Health suffers when you drive yourself to the brink too often. Remind yourself that this isn't a race to the top, this is a supposed to be a life shaping experience. The New Moon in the 13th will be energizing to your House of Partnerships, encouraging you to Loveand be loved and supported by those who just want to hold your hand through it all.
Let them, they're reminding you that you don't have to be perfect or know all the answers in order to succeed in life. The point is to remain open hearted enough to learn. Mars in your House of Communications will be pushing you to talk more, while Mercury in Cancer on the 12th helps you to be vulnerable about your experiences. Imagine Centaur, the more you open up and release guilt and fear, the lighter you'll be on the way to going after your Careerambitions. Even better is that what you learn about yourself during this process will likely give you more fuel to succeed no matter what. Less focus on the destination, try to enjoy your journey.
Capricorn
Health takes center stage this month for you Capricorn, especially if you took up the invitation to play all day and indulge to your heart's content during Taurus Season. Pleasure is good for you, Seagoat, so don't sweat the extra pounds you put on while enjoying that second slice of caramel custard pie or if you can't remember the name of the person you were kissing at the last party you stayed out all night at. Life is for living after all, just be sure to get back into a healthier routine by the time the New Moon asks you to set new intentions about how you take care of yourself and still manage to have a good time. Stay in pleasure mode as the Heavens will be sending potential partners your way to enjoy and get close to.
You may find that you have to let go of ideas you have about yourself that block you from fully allowing yourself to Love and be loved in return. Like anything else in life, love takes prioritizing and effort to get off the ground, so assess how good you've been about making time for it in your life the way you do with your Career and work. Career takes a backseat this month in a good way. You're learning to make room for life beyond what you do. Tap into how you take action on your values and whether or not you're able to get outside support, rather than going at it alone. Open up to the idea of merging with others Capricorn, it may be just the thing you need.
Aquarius
Just when you were ready to step out into the world and assert yourself, the Heavens decide to put you on hold for just a bit longer. Mars the planet of Action and Aggression has had you fired up and feeling more able to put yourself forward after a long period of laying low. Watch your confidence and energy level before Mars turns retrograde on the 27th, as it will clue you into what aspect of your drive and ambition can be tweaked. Since this Mars transit will be with you for a few months, it will make an impact on just about every area of your life. In terms of Love and partnership, you may be pushed to put yourself out there. The New Moon on the 13th in your House of Romance and Creativity says come out to play and be expressive with the people who stir your creative juices.
Live a little, Water Bearer, carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders isn't the wave and it will definitely impact your Health if you don't take steps to lighten up. The Full Moon on the 28th will point out what mental/psychic patterns (like obsessive thinking or worry) may be draining you of your physical vitality and messing with your ability to get things done on a day to day basis. Toss the habits that leave you feeling hopeless and filled with doubt. It's not that you can't achieve what you desire, it's that you need to practice a bit of patience and compassion for yourself. Work on your self-care, enjoying yourself despite the circumstance and when the time is right you'll have the energy you need to start knocking your Career and reputation out the park. Slowing down can be a good thing if you let it.
Pisces
Take a knee Pisces. With all the activity and rushing about that took place during the first half of the year, you deserve a break. Your Healthimproves when you take a moment to slow down and enjoy the quieter side of life at home. The New Moon in the 13th will encourage to clean up your home and make it a refuge that you can enjoy when all you want to do is cozy up with a good book and a cup of tea before shutting out the world. You won't be a homebody forever, Loveis in play when Mercury and the Sun will energize your house of Romance and Creativity on the 12th and 21st, encouraging you to go out and get into mischief with others who are interested your mystifying energy.
The Full Moon in the 28th will point out whether your core group of friends are on the same page as you when it comes to your Hopes and Wishes for the future and if they encourage you to create the life that you've always dreamed of. If they don't, it may be time to say goodbye to them and any behaviors that keeps you from tapping into your creative potential. Careergets to hit the pause button this month as you redirect your energy towards self care and pleasure, take care of you first, gain some perspective on what you want to go after and the energy will appear when you need it to go after your more worldly ambitions.

However, since we're dealing with the energies of Capricorn and some watery Scorpio, there are some rules involved.
One: Choose something that inspires passion and you're willing to commit to
Two: Know that it will take your focus and effort to see it materialize. This isn't the kind of seed you can plant and just walk away from. It requires your attentive follow up.
Three: Whatever you're growing will take time and it will likely challenge you, so don't throw in the towel just yet!

Aries
MARCH 21 – APRIL 19
Even bigger than your career is the legacy that you leave behind. You've been changed, Aries, hopefully for the better. You have fresh ideas and visions that could potentially be used to lead the world in a new, improved direction. Commit to the reputation you'd like to be known and remembered by.

Taurus
APRIL 20 – MAY 20

Gemini
MAY 21 – JUNE 20
As the natural communicators of the zodiac, The Twins are tasked with being willing to call it as they see it, no matter how controversial the topic may be. This New Moon you're connecting to the undercurrent, the details of what's motivating not only yourself, but the world at large. Think of how valuable a skill set this can be, Gemini, if you hone it daily. To be able to perceive the hard truth.
Cancer
JUNE 21 – JULY 22
You've spent the last few weeks paying attention to what kind of relationships you'd like to have in your life. Partnering means give and take, and in your case, it also means boundaries and the ability to say "no" when you need to. Your shell may take a battering as you bravely tend to your partnerships with others, but trust that, despite the ups and downs of the journey, you are on the right road with your destination in sight.
Leo
JULY 23 – AUGUST 22
Admittedly, there isn't much glamour in desk jobs, paying bills, or committing to a new exercise plan, but you've earned where you are for better or for worse, Lion. Assess what can be improved upon, and move on. Whenever you give your radiant energy to a project, you do it with inspirational style. Let your crowning achievement be taking expert care of yourself to the point that others will be asking for your advice.
Virgo
AUGUST 23 – SEPTEMBER 22
Up until this point Virgo, you've been given opportunities to show off your creative impulse. Whatever you've discovered about yourself over the last few weeks is worth investing in. Creativity is meant to be imperfect as it shows you what it wants to be. Stay the course and keep dabbling and allowing yourself to be inspired by what's local to you.
Libra
SEPTEMBER 23 – OCTOBER 22
Capricorn and Saturn can be heavy energies to grapple with for an air sign like you, Libra. In your sector of home and family, it can also speak to denials of love and affection. If this has been the case for you over the years, know that this the time to build something different. You can plant a home life that's fed on respect, healthy boundaries, and dependability. You can invite people in or keep them out. It's up to you to decide what's worth creating and what would ultimately nourish your strength.
Scorpio
OCTOBER 23 — NOVEMBER 21
You've been gathering knowledge, information, and meeting up with new people these last few weeks. You should have a kernel of an idea about what it is that you want to teach to your community. Make sure it's something you identify with strongly that leaves you feeling like you can expand your influence through speaking and showing others how to perceive differently. You are becoming the teacher, Scorpio, so build your classroom.
Sagittarius
NOVEMBER 22 — DECEMBER 21
Water is wet, and rocks are hard, Centaurs. As a fire sign you thrive on optimism and enthusiasm to get through life. That's all fine and dandy, but apply some concrete structure to breathe your fire into. Visualize what you want to manifest in your finances, as well as your self-worth. Trust that you have the staying power to plan and see anything through step by step. You're a grown up now, Sagittarius. Trust in the wisdom of your experience.
Capricorn
DECEMBER 22 — JANUARY 19
Sea Goats, you have a slight edge on everyone else because you were born for this. You know firsthand that sometimes it's a deep impulse to succeed that urges you on and, at times, you know it can be a long lonely journey to the top with no one to cheer you on but yourself. In this reinvention of who you are, you get to lead by example. You are an authority on creating something out of nothing. Show the rest of us how it's done!
Aquarius
JANUARY 20 — FEBRUARY 18
Follow the misty trails of your dreams and imagination, Water Bearer. This New Moon taking place in your house of the Unconscious wants you to dedicate your energy to exploring the unseen worlds. There are times we must retreat inward to reconnect with our integrity. Wisdom is knowing that you do not know it all, but being willing to go on a journey to find it. This is just the beginning of your dream journey. Tend to it with care.
Pisces
FEBRUARY 19 — MARCH 20
New friends, new hopes, and wishes are being seeded this New Moon. Know that whatever you commit to is not going to grow overnight or magically appear out of nowhere. This is an all hands on deck long haul effort. If you can face the inevitable twists, turns, failures, and eventual success that will follow you, and the friends you collaborate with will produce something incredible.
What did your horoscope say about your sign this week? Let us know in the comments below.
Patience is a virtue, and before you rush off with your half-finished blueprint, it's important to hear what Mercury the Winged Messenger has to say about all of this.
Mercury governs communication, thoughts, and transportation, and on January 11th, he moves from upbeat, optimistic fiery Sagittarius into practical, grounded Capricorn.
Since December 3rd, when he went Retrograde, Mercury has been going over the big picture with a highlighter and an editing tool to make sure you're clear on what your inspired vision is. So, this is it, last call to fine tune your blueprints before we plant the seeds on the Capricorn New Moon next week.
Aries
Alright Rams, Mercury has been crisscrossing your House of Higher Education, Distant Travel, and Philosophy for a few months now, gathering all the receipts to back up your ascent to the top of your game. Now the time has arrived to take those philosophies and apply them to your work. Chat that real ish, Aries, but make sure you can back up everything you say with tangible action. Whatever you do, don't say what you're unwilling to commit to!
Taurus
You've just about seen and heard it all while Mercury was in your House of Transformation, Secrets, and Other People's Money, but that's actually a good thing, Taurus. Whatever you learned behind closed doors is asking to be broadcasted to the world. Remember you're creating a brand-new world view and philosophy, share what fits for now, then let go of the rest. Try not to get too comfortable with what you believe just yet, come springtime all that you thought you knew will be radicalized.
Gemini
Enough chit-chat, Gemini...well at least enough chit-chat without backing it up with some tangible actions. You've already waxed poetic about your partnerships and how grand they're going to be, so now it's time to put up or shut up. When you speak of deeply connecting with others, do it not only in your mind, but also with your physical presence and your rapt attention. Focus, give some intensity, say how you're going to commit, and then actually do it.
Cancer
Take your mind off the day to day details, Little Crab. You've been neck deep in spreadsheets, to-do lists, and tending to either your own health or the well-being of those around you. You've been fabulous, Cancer, but there are some very important people in your life who are demanding some much-needed one-on-one facetime from you. Pick up the phone, make a date to go out, and talk to the people who are interested in building solid relationships with you. Now that your head is in the game, it should be easier to connect from the heart.
Leo
Everyone knows what a natural talent you are Leo, and with Mercury having just finished with your House of Creativity, it's time to get more grounded with what you can really do. Health and Daily Routines doesn't sound especially fun nor glamorous I know, but if you put the same amount of thought and effort into this area of your life, you'll surely shine in no time. Treat your mind, body, and spirit like a stage upon which you can perform. Do for yourself and do it for the people, inspire us with the new story of what it means to take care of oneself with style.
Virgo
Mercury has been nestled deep in your House of Home and Family since November, encouraging you to explore the past. Childhood memories, nostalgia, trips down memory lane, or even just more time spent at home has been good for your mind, Virgo. But Mercury is leaving the nest now to go out and play with the rest of the planets hanging out in your creative sandbox. Your creative confidence quickly grows to a point where you don't mind being the center of attention, outlining your cleverly crafted plans that can literally change your life.
Libra
Being a bit of a homebody doesn't have to mean being lonely. You're a naturally social creature, so with Mercury entering your House of Home and Family, you may want to invite some chattering friends into your home. Try the friends who have similar curiosities to you or who might also be interested in nesting, redecorating, and being unafraid of discussing family baggage. Who knows, you may even convince them to help you paint your place!
Scorpio
Mercury has been focusing his attention on your resources and values: balancing the budget, tossing out old concepts about self-worth and wealth, reimagining how abundant and satisfied you can be in life. Now that the Winged Messenger is moving into your domain of communications, siblings, and the local neighborhood, you may want to start talking about what you learned. You're so perceptive, Scorpio, why don't you teach us what you know? It's time for the student to consider becoming the teacher!
Sagittarius
If it feels like your wheels have been spinning in the mud, Centaur. That should begin to change once Mercury leaves after a long stay in your sign. Over the last three years, Saturn helped to crystalize who you are and what you believe in. With Mercury arriving in your House of Self Esteem, Values, and Money, you can finally start speaking with optimistic, yet practical authority. You earned it, now don't be shy about speaking your truth to power. For every word you say, back it up with that action.
Capricorn
One last hurrah in the Land of Introspection, Sea Goats. Mercury has been helping you perceive beyond the veil into some really strange and mystical parts of your own soul. The good, the bad, and the ugly all exists in the subconscious and Mercury is crossing over the threshold to deliver the news about the cosmic upgrade you just received. The new topic of conversation is YOU! All about you and how you're about to conquer the world with Saturn at your side. Show out, Capricorn!
Aquarius
Mercury has been in your home domain of Hopes, Dreams and Wishes, Aquarius. So maybe you've been more social than usual with your normal group of rebels and revolutionaries but now the hour has arrived for you to take your mind into the unknown. Solitude can be a bit alarming but don't panic, instead tap into the deeper Universe, and let your imagination provide you with unexpected wisdom. Just be sure to come back up for air, Water Bearer, sometimes mental travel through space and time can make anyone go crazy.
Pisces
What have you learned about the ups and downs of ambition and ladder climbing, Pisces? Your life is becoming a little less about your own reputation and more about how your experiences can be shared with the collective. Let us know what wisdom your intuition and experience has given to you over the last three years. Allow Mercury to give concrete yet inspiring words to those in need of your insight.
