Hello! I hope that you are having a fantastic start to your week… that you are drinking in this delicious Libra moon with all types of collaborative relational goodness.
There’s some energy upcoming that I wanted to make y’all aware of that has the potential to be personally huge. I keep feeling like the dominant force of energy wants us to be like… more collectively minded, but there’s so much juicy personal world stuff going on is my sense of it and perhaps the collectivity/connectivity is an attempt to distract us from figuring out what is coming up for us personally.
So continuing to come back to yourself, do your reflections…
we’re in the middle of a pretty interesting space planetarily speaking… coming through this crossroads with Mercury that stationed direct in Taurus on June 3rd on Algol (are we going to let whatever it is that we’re navigating absolutely consume us or are we going to go through the alchemy of transmutation and rise from whatever it is) and Saturn stationed retrograde on June 4th in Aquarius. There’s a part of our lives that has seemingly slowed down to a halt… and this is a huge sign that it’s time to go inward and practice some self-compassion for whatever we have been navigating. Mercury is *still* at this 26th degree which may be causing us to feel impatient… but this energy is moving, I promise you! :) Mercury will move onto the 27th degree of Taurus *tomorrow* further out of its square to Saturn and starts to gain some speed and traction.
Saturn retrograde in my opinion increases the importance to paying attention to your personal frequency… This is a time where you want to be in resonance with what is around you in terms of your environment, people… it really seems to be about being in alignment more than anything else even more than “working hard” or focusing on “positioning” ~ so I recommend really purifying daily your personal electrical field during this transit, more than I normally would. I’m also going to suggest taking regular breaks from our devices as Saturn in Aquarius seems to be something spiritual that comes through the electricity ~ which is why we feel full of static after a day on the computer at this point (or maybe that’s just me! feels good to get away from it and put my feet in the ground, how about you?)
More on Saturn retrograde here:
I was looking out over the horizon a little bit and there are some things that I am noticing.
First, I want for you to really take stock and inventory of things right now in your life. This moment-in-time crossing of Mercury and Saturn ~having recently just switched places (re: retrograde vs direct), them squaring each other… this is intense, but it’s a chance to catch a unique perspective that we may not have again in the same way this year. So pause, notice, reflect… not fearing making adjustments and following your intuition how that finds you.
Mercury moves pretty slowly from this retrograde station, trudging forward and not leaving its shadow phase until June 18th. Mercury moves into a trine aspect to Pluto on June 10th, which is us catching a very deep realization that we may have already had in the Mercury retrograde transit that bares itself to you again so you get another glimpse of it… Maybe using it to make literal adjustments in the physical. Kind of like being shaken awake a little bit, in a good way. Pluto in Capricorn doesn’t really hold back. Until June 13th, our best bet is discipline, structure, controlling our baseline impulses, especially due to the square to Saturn. Mercury will move into Gemini on June 13th which brings us back into that creative, inspired energy and then Mercury will move out of shadow until on June 18th and we can have 100% of our cognitive function back (haha!) especially if you are a person who has Mercury direct in your natal chart like me. :) Virgos, Geminis and Taurus’ should be relieved!
Venus has been cruisin right along in Taurus, soaking up the good vibes, reminding us that we’d like to feel good on this ride somewhat… I think this is lovely for having a better experience of our bodies, our senses… and really just gives me the impression of enjoying a very spring, fertile, feminine energy. Venus will go through quite a journey as well over the coming days ~ Venus will move into a conjunction with Uranus June 11th in Taurus which is like boom pow! I think this can show us a lot about where we’re at in our relationships… some themes include surprise, but also destabilization. Don’t fight the awareness and higher knowledge that you have access to through this transit ~ you’re meant to be a bit more elevated in your choices and I feel like this gives you a nice perch upon which to do so. Venus will move into a conjunction with the North Node in Taurus on June 16th which really should be a day that shows us if we’re following the signals of fate, or not. There’s a rich creativeness and manifestation accessible in my opinion on this day… despite the fact that Venus will move into a square with Saturn on June 19th which can feel like some self-worth, financial issues coming up… and just to be honest this doesn’t feel very good. Mercury comes out of shadow June 18th and then this square just kinda seems like we get very REAL really quickly about things in our life that we want to shift and change around but maybe don’t know how. There’s blocks that have been coming up for the last two months with Saturn squaring the North and South Nodes, that has us feeling in a state of suspended animation, for at least two months now and this square from Venus to Saturn highlights the awkward, cold, dissatisfaction and the sobering realizations made during the Mercury retrograde. I think with Venus connecting with Algol it’s good to watch what you’re allowing to consume you through this time, until Venus moves into Gemini and we get curious about money, love, what we are creating, on June 22nd.
I wanted to write this to reassure you that things will move and the stories that we’ve wanted to push forward and evolve WILL move forward and evolve. <3
Enjoy the rest of your week!
