Do you get the feeling that things are just not moving along? Energetically speaking, things just seem to be somewhat off and we can’t really put our finger on it! Saturn and Mars continue to retrograde in the sign of Scorpio. This slow and retrograde movement has a somewhat heavy feeling. Mars is a planet that deals with our personal energy and it is also the planet responsible for getting things done as they say. Saturn creates obstacles, slows down progress, and creates fear. The new moon on June 5th is in the sign of Taurus ( a fixed sign) opposed by Saturn and Mars in Scorpio (a fixed sign).
This is a moon that is focused on resources. Relationships, personal and business along with financial resources will continue to be a hot topic. This will be true for both the bedroom and the boardroom. The celestial lovers, (translate that to you & your mate) Mars and Venus are opposed in their own signs. Overall this energy is more about seeking and having its own way. Jupiter, the planet that deals with our traditional values, along with religion is being challenged by Rahu. On June 20th Jupiter will conjunct Rahu in the sign of Leo. The ancient masters said that Rahu corrupts Jupiter, a benefic planet that also rules over religion and spirituality. Jupiter was called Guru and was the teacher or preceptor to the Gods. Truth, devotion, faithfulness, compassion, these were some of the qualities that Jupiter taught. As Rahu conjoins with Jupiter, it creates an out of bounds and challenges Jupiter on these qualities. At the same time, this duo, Jupiter and Rahu can bring great change and also wealth.
Many planets are involved, squaring and opposing. While Mars, Saturn is retrograde, opposing Venus, Sun at the beginning of June. Neptune and Ketu oppose Jupiter, Rahu. This is called a grand cross and all these planets are in fixed signs. Fixed signs are known to be stubborn and resistant to change. However, we are at the tipping point now and there is no turning back. Neptune and Ketu, in Aquarius are squaring with Saturn and Mars. Something will be revealed that has been hid up to now. This may involve a political figure or someone well known. Neptune and Saturn squaring in these close degrees could uncover a scandal. Saturn’s transit through Scorpio will bring things to light, that have never been uncovered before. It has also been responsible for
the sex scandal we have seen that involved celebrity Bill Cosby.
On June 17th, Mars will retrograde all the way back into the sign of Libra. This will bring some temporary relief. Both Mars and Saturn are considered malefic planets who are enemies to each other. Mars prefers to move fast, and always has a strategy in mind. Saturn is slow bringing restriction, pressure and challenges. Mars will remain in Libra, turning direct on 6/29 and then move into it’s own sign of Scorpio on 7/13. This is the point where things will begin to change more rapidly, Mars will begin to get steam as it builds up in degrees. August will be the month that these 2 malefic planets meet up in the sign of Scorpio. The buildup or applying nature of Mars will begin around mid July. The outer planets, Pluto and Uranus continue to square each other, creating uprising, protests and rebellion. Uranus, the planet of rebellion and revolution is winning,
You may not be surprised by that, considering all that is happening in our world. On 6/28, Uranus will transit out of Pisces and into the sign of Aries. Uranus energy is all about change, and it brings that change rather suddenly and unexpectedly. Think inventions, entrepreneurs and radical change, that is just some of the business of Uranus. Technology will take on a new and accelerated advancement.
For Capricorn and Aquarius ascendants, your ruling planet Saturn is retrograde, causing you to have a review of life. Know that this too, will change. Saturn will turn direct in mid- August.
June is a good month for making the correction. You will probably be able to see the trees and the forest. In spite of its retrograde motion, Mars can help you to regenerate and focus in on the course of action that will be most beneficial to you. Once Mars begins it direct motion at the end of June, energy levels will begin to return to normal. Both Aries and Scorpio are ruled by Mars and they will feel their “mojo” has returned as well when Mars moves to direct motion on 6/29.
