June 2024
RUNE OF THE MONTH: Jera “Harvest”. This month, karma
strikes. We are reaping what we have sown. While corruption,
laziness, lies, and abuse will not result in happy situations; those
who in for a long time demonstrated good will, engaged in hard
work, showed discrimination, and had integrity will soar to new
heights.
* * * * * * * * * * *
Pluto remains retrograde this whole month till October 11. Its
shadow period lasts until February 2, 2025. The degree traveled in
June (1º55’-1º24’ Aquarius) is associated in the Sabian Symbols
with the following image: “An unexpected thunderstorm”. Old,
outmoded patterns cannot survive in the current evolution. The
days of those who abused their power, lied, and built their wealth
on corruption, are numbered. A glaring light is being cast on the
darker, more toxic, destructive aspects of humanity, leading to a
necessary explosion. The people will be seen everywhere to rebel in
unprecedented ways against oppression.
Mars enters Taurus on 6/8 at 9:35 PM till July 20 th . Resilient,
persistent, and stubborn actions mark the coming 6 weeks. We may
start projects rather slowly but once we get going, cannot be
stopped. Driven by practical considerations, our desires are very
physical, geared towards money-making ventures and building
material solidity.
Saturn turns retrograde on Saturday 6/29 at 12:07 PM till
November 15. Its shadow period lasts until February 18, 2025.
The degree it turns retrograde on (19º26’ Pisces) is symbolized by:
“A table set for an evening meal”. During the next 4 and 1/2
months, our relationship with authority comes into focus. How
trustworthy are our governments? How much faith do we place in
the laws? How supportive are external structures? The time has
come to rely on our inner resources, stand in our personal power,
and become the masters of our own destiny.

On Thursday 6/6, take out your blank full moon charged papers
and write on each a concise, positive intention. Place them on a
balcony, in a garden or near a window so that they are out by

moment has passed, staple them together and put them away in a
folder expecting the manifestation of all your dreams….

blank sheets and place them in a folder until the next New Moon

Sunday 6/2: Jupiter Trine Pluto (5:13 PM), Mercury Sextile
Neptune (8:57 PM)
Cheerful optimism, tolerance, self-confidence, and generosity help
expand our philosophical and social horizons. Cooperating for the
good of all involved and extending our hospitality, while exercising
our discrimination wisely elicit the trust of others. A wonderful
day for artists who are particularly inspired. Our psychic abilities
are enhanced and our imagination, intensified.
Monday 6/3: Mercury enters Gemini (12:37 AM) till 6/17,
Mercury Trine Pluto (11:12 PM)
During the next 2 weeks, our curiosity and need to communicate
are intensified. Short trips, social mixers, learning, teaching, and
writing are all favored. Our mind is sharp. However, eager to learn
a little bit about everything, we could get easily distracted, be
somewhat scattered and superficial. Today, more specifically, we
X-ray situations and people and should be particularly careful in
our use of language as our words have the potential to profoundly
influence others. We could take a keen interest in community
affairs and propose some much needed reforms.
Tuesday 6/4: Mercury Conjunct Jupiter (3:23 AM), Sun
Conjunct Venus (8:32 AM)
Goodwill abounds. Social events are elegant. Fundraisers are
favored. Our interactions with others are positive and pleasant.
We express ourselves with warmth, generosity, and optimism. A
great day to travel or plan a long-distance trip. Our self-
confidence, trust in life, and faith in others attract many
beneficial opportunities.
Saturday 6/8: Venus Square Saturn (1:25 AM), Mars enters
Taurus (9:35 PM) till July 20th
Today, more specifically, our emotional environment could be colder
than usual. Single people could feel their solitude more keenly,
while couples could experience strain and frustrations.
Relationships feel more like work than fun. We are required to be
very honest with ourselves and realistic in our expectations.
During the next 6 weeks, our actions are guided by common sense.
We are grounded, solid, and sensual. We seek financial security and
good investments. We may demonstrate a certain stubbornness in
our self-expression. Our staying power is strong. No matter the
obstacles, we keep moving along with consistency and
determination.
Sunday 6/9: Sun Square Saturn (3:36 AM)
Work is likely to be demanding. Our responsibilities seem heavier
than usual. The efforts required are both challenging and time
consuming. We are likely to feel keenly the lack of support, but
with discipline, organization, focus, and persistence, can get
through our workload on our own, and fulfill our obligations.
Tuesday 6/11: Mars Square Pluto (6:21 AM)
Today, manipulations, jealousies, rebellion, even hostilities could
create much stress and prove quite destructive. Facing
courageously the issues at hand with self-confidence and a sense
of responsibility helps us clear the air and establish more honest
relationships with others.
Wednesday 6/12: Mercury Square Saturn (3:47 AM)
We may feel rather pessimistic, depressed, tired, and discouraged.
Our friends are neither particularly helpful nor supportive. Best to
stay quiet and immerse ourselves in work that doesn’t require any
imagination. Despite our responsibilities feeling heavy and our
focus on details slowing us down, we can still make some valuable
progress.
Friday 6/14: Sun Conjunct Mercury (9:33 AM)
A good day for communications. Excellent for writing e-mails,
making phone calls, buying, selling, and trading. Perfect also for
small trips, setting goals, a social gathering, and trying something
new.
Sunday 6/16: Venus Square Neptune (8:46 PM), Venus enters
Cancer (11:20 PM) till July 11
Our sensitivity is enhanced, making us vulnerable. Feelings could be
blurred by lies, deceit, and evasiveness. We should beware of
relationships that seem too good to be true. An apparent soul
connection could dissolve into a much less desirable situation laden
with drama and confusion. We should also be careful to not fall
prey to frauds or financial scams. During the next 3 weeks, our
feelings are geared towards home, family, and security. We are
likely to be more caring, nurturing, and emotional. Attracted to
cooking and good food, we enjoy entertaining and are inspired by a
childlike approach to life.
Monday 6/17: Mercury Square Neptune (12:41 AM), Mercury
enters Cancer (2:07 AM) till July 2 nd , Mercury Conjunct Venus
(5:43 AM)
Our mind is imaginative, sensitive, and inspired. We could however
get lost in daydreaming and pay little attention to factual details.
Not a good day to sign legally binding documents as we could miss
much of the small print. Our social contacts are easy and pleasant.
Great for gathering with friends and attending a nice event. During
the next 2 weeks, artists are favored, as are those working with
women and children. Our thoughts are focused on family, food,
improving the comfort of our home, children, and safety.
Thursday 6/20: Sun Square Neptune (11:12 AM), the Sun
enters Cancer (1:51 PM) till July 22
Prone to lethargy, today, we could feel rather dreamy, indecisive,
and impractical. We are advised to stay away from promotional
schemes and shady interactions. During the next 2 weeks, issues
around home, family, food, security, comfort, and children all come
into focus. We could feel more nurturing, caring, and sensitive than
usual.
Friday 6/21: Mercury Sextile Mars (9:23 AM)
Communications are clear, dynamic, and to the point. Words and
thoughts lead to decisive actions. Our judgement is sound. We
mean what we say and call a spade a spade. A good day to sign
contracts or get repairs done.
Wednesday 6/26: Mercury Trine Saturn (11:10 AM)
A wonderful day to map our progress, make plans, focus on our
long-term goals, and work diligently towards our ambitions. We
seek useful information that we can apply in a practical manner.
Discipline, groundedness, efficiency, and structure enable us to
clear our desk of backlogged work.
Friday 6/28: Venus Sextile Mars (9:49 PM)
Peaceful, easygoing, light social contacts are pleasant. We strike a
good balance between the masculine and feminine sides of
ourselves. A favorable day for a date, decorating our home, and/or
beautifying ourselves.
Saturday 6/29: Saturn turns retrograde (12:07 PM) until
February 18, 2025, Mercury Sextile Uranus (7:20 PM)
Regarding Saturn retrograde for the next 8 months, kindly refer
to the opening paragraph. Today, more specifically, should be the
stage of unexpected twists and turns. Our plans are likely to be
disrupted. Eccentric characters show up. People we hadn’t seen in a
long time re-enter our life. Inventive, futuristic, unusual ideas
redirect our path. The more present to the present, flexible, and
open we are, the more exciting and inspiring this day will prove to
be.
Wishing you a wonderful month of June!
In Loving Light.
