The really good news for June is that pesky little Mercury goes direct on or about the 17th. Remember? The little planet started its havoc filled backward spin on May 24? What’s worse, though, is this turmoil laden planetary trip has been in Gemini, the sign most affiliated with µ Mercury. Or it’s like a bad outboard motor „ a 2Ücycle about to seize. You know, Bubba, when one of those little motors is about to go, the terrible, high pitched whine, the smell of cooked motor oil, the sound of tortured bearing….
For this time, the easiest way to get by is the Rule of Expectations: ñNegative expectations yield negative results. Positive expectations yield negative results.î
Aries: you can feel it again, can’t you? They’re out there, and they want to get you. Well, that doesn’t necessarily bode ill fortune for you, it just means that you need to pay a little bit closer attention to what ever work it is that you are doing. Look after the details and the rest of the project will fall into place.
Taurus: if you haven’t figured it out yet, this is a good time to spend idle time with friends and family. Enjoy yourself „ that’s what this little cycle is all about. You will find that for the next few days or weeks, you are more urbane, witty, charming and gracious than ever. So much for the good news.
Gemini: party’s over, and it’s time to go on home. As much as you would like to think about other things, now is the time concentrate on work „ there’s lots of it, if you are in a position to take advantage of the opportunities „ go for, move ahead. There’s also a cool € Venus µ Mercury conjunction. Looks like the two will run over each other. This will do nothing but enhance your sense of pleasure, just be a little wary of relationship issues right now.
Cancer: happy birthday to most of the late summer Crabs. If there ever was sign in need of a big party, it’s you. Don’t you feel like you deserve one this year? A big blowout with old friends and new? Just don’t invite an exÜlovers. As one astrologer noted, that’s one of Dante’s rings of hell. Keep light on your feet this month. Watch out for typographical errors, too.
Leo: it’s always scary to tell a å Leo to check the air pressure in the tires. I have an image of a å Leo holding a tire gauge to the ear. But seriously, folks: you feel like you are on the edge of a great abyss „ take the plunge! The efforts will be well worth it and you are already beginning to feel better about your Big Day which is rapidly approaching. As always, å Leo, party on!
Virgo: I warned you that it was going to be a long and hectic summer, now didn’t I? Do you think I would intentionally mislead you? Of course not! What you do have going on right now is a strange bit of magic between two planets, on being Ê Mars (the God of War) and the other being « Chiron (the Wounded Healer). While every one around you is reacting badly to the µ Mercury thing, just kept forging ahead „ you have extra strength right now to heal old wounds.
Libra: beside the ignominy of a dreaded but often overrated µ Mercury Retrograde, there isn’t too much to write home about. Take a little time and enjoy the summer months „ not everyone is going to get a chance for some relaxation right now, but you will. Take a little time and smell the proverbial flowers. As soon as µ Mercury goes direct, you get a new lease on a number of options and possible directions. Until then, just take it easy.
Scorpio: face it, the rest of us are tired of listening to a Scorpio whine about how tough it is to have a ruler like the Lord of the Underworld, ø Pluto, doing a macabre dance through your sign. No, we really don’t want to listen to your trials and tribulations. Sorry about this information, as if it really comes as a shock to you. Look on the bright side, if there is one, this is still a long and dark month, but soon, very soon, all of you Scorpio types will rise from the metaphorical (maybe real) ashes and soar like eagles. Sure.
Sagittarius: your luck seems to be holding out these days, as if you needed any more good luck, but, as an Archer, you need all the help you can get. Whatever you do don’t, I repeat, don’t, look a gift horse in the mouth. Take whatever is being offered in terms of advancement right now because it will be a good time to get ahead.
Capricorn: for you Sea Goats, there’s just about nothing new under the sun (or the moon, for that matter), so the best way to look forward to the next month is brace yourself for some more changes in work „ hopefully good changes.
Aquarius: the wake up call which cam the 1st couple of months is over with, for a little while. Which doesn’t mean that you can go back to sleep, either, so just hang on. You will find yourself regressing at a time like this. If you have a mystical or metaphysical and pseudoÜspiritual side, now is the time for past life regressions.
Pisces: The good news is that just about all of your selfÜmotivation has been tested by this point, and you have come out looking good. The bad news is that this difficult workÜrelated cycle isn’t over with yet, so just hang on. No lottery number this month, either.
