Other Astrological Happenings:
June 12 -- Saturn turns direct at 11*Libra: A professor peering over his glasses at his students. We are more than the knowledge of our cultural heritage. Knowledge without experience will not help us now. Saturn went retrograde on January 25, the day of the Egyptian uprising in the beginning of the Arab spring. As it turns direct, we can begin to grow that revolution in all parts of the world, including America. Saturn, old Father Time, will be moving forward again in Libra, demanding a real "fair and balanced' world.
June 12 -- Sun conjuncts Mercury at 22*Gemini: Dancing couples in a harvest festival. The union of opposites, celebrating and dancing to the rhythms of life.
June 15 -- Sagittarius full Moon lunar eclipse.
June 16 - 17 -- Mercury goes into Cancer. Mercury trine Neptune & sextile Jupiter. It's time to explore the imagination and allow your empathy and inspiration to find practical outlets in your life.
June 17 -- Venus trine Saturn. Venus is the first planet to connect to Saturn now that it's in direction motion, and we are asked to be responsible for what we love.
June 18-19: Mercury in Cancer moves into a square with Uranus in Aries and Pluto in Capricorn, helping build that new Mind with originality and depth.
June 20 -- Mars goes into Gemini. The Mind becomes more dynamic and flexible.
June 21, 2011 -- Sun moves into Cancer - Summer Solstice: With the Summer Solstice upon us, we want new stories and new leadership to take us into the future. Summer Solstice is the union of Heaven and Earth, the warmth of summer bringing light and life to the land and the people. The Cancer Sun at Summer Solstice grounds in the energies of the Cardinal grand cross: Uranus in Aries, Pluto in Capricorn and Saturn in Libra. Its message: search for what nurtures you, for we need a new society; to create a new society, discover a new identity that is inclusive of others and their welfare. So what nurtures you on a deep soul level will probably nurture everyone else.
As we head into summer, we need to tend our garden and help our projects grow.
Bright Blessings on all your endeavors!
