Horoscopes

Aries

Your mind is buzzing these days with ideas and things you want and need to do, dear Aries. However, you can feel a little overstimulated now, particularly as the day advances. Interruptions might steer you off course just for the time being but aim to stay flexible and keep your schedule open. Changes or detours may lead you in positive directions, after all. Be mindful of what you say and decide, since either or both of these things can be rushed. People might interpret your communications as impatient or rebellious. You might be better off waiting to make significant decisions, but today and tomorrow are nevertheless good for opening your mind to new possibilities. This evening, the Moon’s move into your social sector tends to release some of the pressure to perform.

Taurus

Today and tomorrow are good for coming to new ideas, even brilliant ones, but they’re not ideal for signing on the dotted line, dear Taurus. Today, in particular, you can be a little premature with your conclusions as there can be some substantial chunks of information you’re missing. Even so, the temptation is big to make quick decisions or talk out of turn. Changes of plans and distractions can be frustrating but they can just as well lead to exciting new ideas and methods, so keep an open mind and schedule. The Moon moves to the top of your solar chart this evening, and your attention turns to long-term goals, big ambitions, and whatever success means to you.

Gemini

You take more interest in your passions and projects today with the Moon transiting your intimacy sector until the evening, dear Gemini, but as much as you’d like to immerse yourself in what you love, there can be interruptions or distractions to deal with that make it difficult to concentrate fully. As the day advances, you can be increasingly distracted, now because you’re getting tired of repetitive work, methods, conversations, and thinking, and begin to crave a little more mental excitement. Friends or networks can bring surprises or unexpected news that throws you a little off course. Keep an open mind as changes of plans may end up working your favor. However, try to avoid too quick decisions and acting on impulses with so much going on in your head.

Cancer

Today is another relationship-focused day in your lunar month, dear Cancer, with the Moon in your solar seventh house until the evening, after which it moves into your intimacy sector. Alternatively, you are in a better position to see where areas of your life are imbalanced and now seek out ways to bring things back into order. However, order can be a little hard to come by now with Uranus rather strong. You’ll want to break out of limiting patterns of thought now, and while this is a good thing, do watch for rebellious or impulsive decisions. It’s also important to look at the time and be mindful of others’ schedules as interruptions are more likely than usual now. Aim to stay flexible and avoid speaking too soon on a matter for best results, but when it’s safe to do so, allow your mind to wander.

Leo

There is continued focus in your life on details, methods, and routines today until evening, dear Leo, although there can be some interruptions to handle. From evening forward, you’re in a more sociable and companionable mood, and distractedness is more about your own attraction to new ideas rather than interruptions coming from the outside. There can be surprising conversations, news, or conclusions drawn now. Your mind may race to the point of feeling too jittery to relax tonight, but slowing down makes sense as there is good energy on its way for more mental exercises.

Virgo

As much as you’d like to follow a passion or interest today, dear Virgo, you’ll likely find plenty to distract you along the way. By evening, you’ll be itching to take care of details that are left hanging, but you can be very bored with routine, particularly if you aren’t allowed the freedom to think creatively. Watch for impulsive decision-making today. Speaking too soon on a matter is something to watch for in particular with Mercury at the top of your chart drawing more attention to your communications than usual and under some duress. Mercury is doing well in other ways today and tomorrow, however, so don’t dismiss your ideas altogether — just allow yourself time for them to round out, develop, and mature before acting on them. Personal appeal today is quite high.

Libra 

There can be some ups and downs revolving around news, conversations, beliefs, and educational or travel plans now, dear Libra, and significant people in your life can be unreliable one minute and the source of inspiration the next. However, through some instability today, interesting ideas are developing, and you stand to gain some incredible insight into your relationships and your projects or prospects. Changes in your schedule or interruptions can, in fact, lead to fresh new ideas and experiences. There can be sudden awakenings and insights that nudge you into a new position or stance. Aim to reduce excess stimulants today since your mind is hopping on its own, and draw upon strategies to turn it all off (or put it on pause) when you need rest.

Scorpio

This can be another busy day, dear Scorpio, but you can be driven to distraction rather easily now. These come in the form of interruptions or intrusions in the middle of the day and then your own wandering mind this evening. Haste makes waste now, and communications or directions can take the biggest hit. Routines can feel far too dull now. Choose to make changes if you’re restless, but don’t rush them. It’s a good idea to consciously reduce irritants and overstimulating situations. The Moon’s move into your home and family sector this evening encourages taking a break from the hustle and bustle, even if your mind is still working overtime. Pulling yourself out of busy settings can help.

Sagittarius

Somebody’s stirring the pot today, dear Sagittarius, and you might feel that you’re on the edge of your seat at times today. Relationships are up and down, although mostly up and keeping you on your toes. If you’re uncertain about someone’s feelings, you may be tempted to stir something up yourself just to see how others react. Indeed, you’re not interested in the same old routine or patterns of relating to others today. Absent-mindedness can be an issue if you’re forced to deal with mundane details. Watch for a tendency to speak too soon but also give others some leniency for what they might say, as things may be a little half-baked at the moment and not an accurate representation of true feelings. 

Capricorn

The Moon continues to transit your sign and animate your emotions today until evening, dear Capricorn, after which you’re less inclined to crave attention and more interested in settling down and settling in. However, you may not find it entirely straightforward to do so with a Mercury-Uranus influence that seems to keep your mind racing even when your body’s begging for rest. There can be a slightly competitive or simply restless energy to the day. The best use of it is to do some outside of the box thinking. Don’t expect final products from your musings now, but do enjoy some time to consider exciting possibilities. Frustrations with routine can be an issue now, but if you can get your mind to quieten long enough to rest, you’ll find that more time for toying with fresh ideas awaits you tomorrow.

Aquarius

The Moon continues to transit your privacy sector until this evening when it enters your sign, dear Aquarius, and much of the day, you can feel like staying in the background. In fact, you can thrive in behind the scenes activities. However, many of you simply need a little more time to rest, think, and reflect. By tonight, you make a turnaround, craving a connection with the world around you and acknowledgment for your feelings. You’re also seeking out fresh and exciting ideas, and it can be difficult to stay in the moment or keep focused on what’s in front of you as a result. You’re looking for new challenges. You’d rather do something original than concentrate on the already tried and true, which can seem dull.

Pisces

This is a good day for seeking out good company, dear Pisces. It’s not the best day for concentration or focus, but it’s strong for new ideas and interesting conversations. You won’t tolerate it if you feel that you’re in a mental rut – this is a time for thinking outside the box. However, do watch for impulsive words and decisions. Explore alternatives and different methods now, but avoid making significant commitments, both today and tomorrow. This evening, the Moon moves into the hidden twelfth house in your solar chart, launching a short cycle in which you need a little more rest, privacy, and reflection before pushing ahead. It’s a useful time for tying up loose ends and putting a bad habit or attitude behind you.

Strong Signs, Elements, Modes

GEMINI STRONG
Agile, versatile, inquisitive, flowing, conversational, airy, many ideas. Can be volatile, superficial, changeable, restless and inconsistent.
CAPRICORN STRONG
Disciplined, responsible, reliable, industrious, conscientious, practical, achieving. Can be pessimistic, overly conventional, rigid, materialistic, callous.

BALANCE OF ELEMENTS

FIRE WEAK
We are not very goal-oriented right now, or motivation to pursue our goals may be waning/lacking. Changes feel overwhelming. Enthusiasm may be low, we argue less, and we think more than we take action.

BALANCE OF MODES

FIXED WEAK
We may be open to change but may not have much follow-through.

LUNAR PHASE: FULL MOON
Moon 180 to 135 degrees behind the Sun.
We are concerned mainly with the nature of relationships and are made aware of recent imbalances. Something can come to fruition. Our concern is not limited to personal relationships, but relationships of all kinds. Our cards are on the table.

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on June 12th:

Note that when an aspect is applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. When an aspect is separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. Depending on the speed of the planet/body involved, the aspect will have perfected–or will perfect–in a matter of hours (often the case with the Moon), days, months, and possibly years in the case of the very slow-moving outer planets and bodies.

Note that the Moon moves at a rate of approximately one degree every 2 hours, so that if an aspect involving the Moon is applying and has an orb of 5 degrees, the aspect will perfect (be exact) in about 10 hours. If the Moon is separating from an aspect with an orb of 2 degrees, it has already formed said aspect approximately 4 hours ago (since the following are positions at noon today, then it would have occurred at about 8 AM today).

**I suggest paying close attention to applying aspects. The energy of the aspect builds as it gets closer to exact. Once an aspect involving inner planets has happened, it’s over. Separating aspects are good to know for context, but in terms of energy that is with us today, applying aspects are most important. (This is the case for daily astrology influences involving inner planets, which pass quickly, and not natal astrology aspects, which are with us for a lifetime).
