Venus, the goddess of love is prominent as the week begins. Monday through Wednesday is an auspicious time with Venus and the Sun merging, which brings her energy radiating down upon us along with the Sun’s rays. She corresponds to matters of the heart, our feelings and connections. How does your heart feel? Venus rules the heart chakra. Are you content with your life and your relationships? Since these two conjoin in the sign of Gemini, it is an opportunity for opening up barriers through communication with others. Finding common ground is a theme as you connect with others. Get in touch with your feelings and share them.
Monday and Tuesday focus your awareness more and more upon what you want rather than what you do NOT want. This leaves less energy for negative emotions.
June 11 – 21 the meteor showers in the constellation of Lyra occur. You can see the activity all night long; however peak activity occurs after midnight.
Friday, June 13th is pretty intense with a Scorpio Moon, but a great day to focus and work diligently.
Sunday is Father’s Day and there is an “edge” felt in the air which could bring some hurt feelings. Tread softly. Mercury is still retrograde so misunderstandings are possible. Double check reservations and be prepared for delays in plans.

Heliacal rising of Venus at 18 degrees Gemini
Venus and the Sun catch up and she is hidden in the Sun’s rays until she emerges as the Evening Star. Her role as Morning Star is over for now. We will not be able to visibly see her until July and then she will arise after Sun. Mesopotamian priests saw Venus’s “personality” as more gentle and able to pacify a dangerous situation. The Morning Star—much more impulsive in her actions—can act without thought of the consequences. As the Evening Star, a more diplomatic side emerges now.
The number 5 is associated with Venus. It is a number which corresponds to relationship, bringing together things which are separate and connecting them. She is magnetic and yin, while her counterpart Mars is electric and yang. As the planet of attraction and feelings, Venus corresponds to what you attract to yourself. In the movie “The Secret” we are shown that the way to attract what you want is to feel it in your body and form a relationship to it. This is an excellent time to experiment with that concept.

Sun and Venus quincunx Jupiter
Venus trine Chiron
Sun square Moon
We have a First Quarter Moon and that means an action event occurs. The Moon is very active and there can be a sudden change of circumstances in your life. It may require an adjustment on your part. This may mean having to adjust finances and/or your consumption of resources. It speaks about having to deal with contentious issues, disappointments or loss of a cherished vision. Your attitude or approach is changing (even if you are being forced to change) and it is necessary now. There is support and opportunity for this to happen. Develop your capacity to meet emotionally disappointing experiences with strength of character and personal integrity, rather than emotional reaction. Cooperate and create bridges while speaking about the issues. FIND A NEW VISION. Be open to new people and ideas coming into your life now. They may be messengers who awaken or illuminate, and could benefit you.
Wednesday, June 11 and Thursday, June 12
Moon enters Libra
Sun trine Chiron
Venus and Sun square Uranus
There is restlessness in the air today. You may feel a need for some “space” from someone close to you, or relationships may be challenging. Disruptions in routine are possible. Politically, upheaval or protests may erupt over issues of fairness and justice.
Family conflicts or dependency issues may surface.
Friday, June 13
Moon enters Scorpio
Sun and Venus trine Neptune
Pluto retrograde re-enters Sagittarius
Friday the 13th begins with a dreamy (or confused) air about it, but that will change this afternoon. This morning is an ideal time to remain in that half-asleep, half-awake mode as long as possible. Your feelings are sensitive as is your ability to “tune in” to dreams or inspired ideas. Your intuition is heightened. If you have to go to work and focus, then it is best to do it after 2:53 pm, when the Moon enters Scorpio. The planetary energies then switch to assist you in accomplishing what you set out to do.
Pluto re-enters Sagittarius today as it retrogrades backwards for the next several months. This gives us another chance at expanding our perspective as we become more aware of what we have believed. Pluto is the force which is concerned with areas of limitation and regeneration. Death and rebirth. Like the process of cellular regeneration it gets rid of the old, outworn cells and replaces them new healthy cells. Pluto in Sagittarius is operating in the area of religion and belief systems, bringing to the surface areas which have become limiting and no longer healthy. It has been in Sagittarius since 1995 and will finally leave this sign for good November 26th this year.
Saturday, June 14 and Sunday, June 15
Mars conjunct North Node
Mars quincunx Jupiter
Energies are intense and emotions strong Saturday morning, but that begins to lift by midday. A desire to control a situation could have you involved in a bigger task than you had planned. Don’t bite off more than you can chew. Be wary of making promises you may not be able to keep. A change in circumstance can stimulate you to try new things or make needed adjustments to an old pattern.
Sunday the Moon goes void-of-course at 4:00 pm, which could hamper plans. So it would be better to get things started earlier in the day rather than later. Be sensitive to other people today, since feelings could get hurt easily. Sitting around for long periods of time may not be advisable since there is so much energy today. Find some activities that you can do together or go off on your own. If you can’t find a physical outlet for it, frustration or anger could surface.
