Horoscopes
Aries
Each year, Chiron turns retrograde, dear Aries, and since 2011, this transit has occurred in your solar twelfth house. Next year is the last time this retrograde will happen (partially) in this sector of your chart. As the shift occurs this week, you might struggle with some self-doubt and insecurity. However, going forward and for the course of this transit until December, while self-improvement efforts may stall a little on the surface of things, you can quite effectively attract information and help your way. Dreams and seeming coincidences occurring now can be especially important clues as to what inner work needs special attention. Your outer schedule may not be very straightforward at the moment, but within a few days will be clearer once you’ve made some adjustments. You may be tempted to shut down a little on an emotional level, as you have been attracting a lot of people who seem to need your help, and it’s time that you did some helping of yourself! Today, you’re inclined to pair up to get things done. There can be some conflict between keeping to yourself and relying on others, but you’re in need of some additional company.
Taurus
The Moon moves into your work and health sector early today, dear Taurus, and your focus shifts to your daily affairs and duties. You’ll feel better emotionally if you take care of the practical details of your life now. This week, Chiron begins its retrograde cycle (until December), and during this shift, there can be some confusion or vulnerability experienced surrounding friends or group situations. Going forward, however, the retrograde cycle is good for coming to terms with any overcompensation or feelings of insecurity related to your friendships that may have been part of your life recently. If you’ve been feeling disconnected from your peers, associates, or friends, then this is a time for looking more deeply into the matter. Something occurring now can act as a trigger that motivates this self-examination. Doing more for others doesn’t repair relationships, and may, in fact, take you further away from the heart of the problem, and you can see this more clearly in the months ahead.
Gemini
The Moon moves into harmony with your sign today, dear Gemini, and this can get your creative juices flowing. You’re in the mood to create, interact, and enjoy yourself now. Romantic feelings may bloom. Chiron is beginning a five-month retrograde cycle, and any doubts or insecurities about your current life path, performance, leadership skills, or career can magnify with the shift. However, experiences now can prompt a desire to examine why you may have been overcompensating, procrastinating, or worrying in these areas of life. In fact, until December, you’re likely to see a connection along these lines more clearly. It’s a great cycle in which to work with various healing techniques and for getting in better touch with true needs and goals.
Cancer
The Moon moves to the bottom of your solar chart today, dear Cancer, and you may need to reconnect with your roots and attend to your inner needs and wants. Chiron begins its yearly retrograde cycle, lasting until December, and you may experience some discontent with–and indecision revolving around–higher education, learning, belief systems, and faith in a higher system and bigger purpose. The ninth house represents our spirit, what we strive towards, and we believe in. With Chiron in Pisces here since 2010 and for another couple of years (on and off) into the future, these things can be difficult to see clearly and connect with deeply, as much as you’d like to. Ultimately, you will connect with what you truly believe, aspire to, and have faith in, in your heart. This struggle is internalized as you examine what is within that feels damaged and needs healing during this retrograde. While you should watch for a tendency to isolate yourself from time to time, overall, it’s a good time for introspection.
Leo
The Moon moves into your communications sector early today, dear Leo, and you feel a stronger need to connect and interact with the world around you. This transit stimulates your curiosity and finds you more talkative and approachable, which can surprise others as you’ve recently been a little more insular than usual. This week, Chiron’s station as it turns retrograde points to a shift in how you deal with issues of support, dependency, intimacy, power sharing, and finances. With Chiron transiting your solar eighth house for the past seven or so years (and approximately two years to come), you have a stronger ability to bring out the best in others. However, sometimes you may feel that you’re taking on the emotional burden and weight of others’ problems a little too often, or you are helping people so much that it’s at the expense of your own happiness. Chiron’s retrograde gives you a little break or reprieve from this and is also quite excellent for examining why you may be overcompensating or avoiding your own issues in these areas of your life. This week, there can be something that triggers this inward journey.
Virgo
The Moon moves out of your sign early today, dear Virgo, and you begin to seek out a little less excitement and more predictability for a couple of days. Chiron turns retrograde now as it does each year, and this cycle will last until December. Chiron has been transiting your partnership sector for about seven years and will spend a couple more years there, on and off, and you can be getting closer to a resolution of problems in this area of life. Events or revelations this week can trigger a need for introspection when it comes to your one-to-one relationships or partnerships, as insecurities and overcompensation with these things can be pronounced as this shift occurs. The tendency may have been to sacrifice too much for others or to feel stuck and emotionally unable to move forward when it comes to close relationships, whether you’re in a partnership or not. This retrograde cycle affords you the opportunity to get in touch with any fears or damage that prevents you from doing more for yourself, and this gets you on the road to healing.
Libra
Each year, Chiron spends several months retrograde, and for some time now, has been spending this time in your work and health sector. Chiron will move on to your partnership sector next year. For now and until December, you’ll have opportunities to do some self-examination if you’ve been overcompensating in the areas of health or work due to insecurities or fears. Consider what it is about your daily routines and your approach to them that leaves you with a feeling that you haven’t done enough, or that you haven’t been capable enough. You may have been very busy serving and helping others, and now events and revelations are such that you recognize the need to turn your helping and healing efforts inward. Today, the Moon enters your sign, and you have an increased need for the world to acknowledge your emotions in some way. You crave a feeling of interconnectedness today, which can run counter to your work goals and responsibilities. However, you’ll find a way to combine both needs successfully.
Scorpio
Chiron has been transiting your solar fifth house for the past seven years and will continue to do so for a little while longer, dear Scorpio. This transit sometimes points to going overboard pleasing others in the areas of romance, children, or on creative lines. If this is the case, Chiron’s retrograde cycle until December is excellent for re-examining how you’ve been doing things. If you’ve been overcompensating, this is a time for seeing more clearly which insecurities or fears are at the root of this behavior. Events today and this week can be catalysts for beginning the personal healing process. You may be holding back a little, as it’s time to look within rather than to serve others blindly without tending to your own needs. Today, the Moon enters your solar twelfth house, and you’ll feel an increased need or desire to take it easy for a couple of days. It may seem difficult to do so if you’re traveling or overbooked, but you’ll find the means.
Sagittarius
Chiron has been transiting your solar fourth house for the past seven years, dear Sagittarius, and there can often be times when you may be working so hard to please and serve your family that you feel drained and perhaps a little resentful at times! Chiron turns retrograde every year, as it does now, and there can be a need to draw much of that energy inwards, towards your own nurturing. During this cycle that lasts until December, you’re in a great position to examine and identify the roots of these insecurities. In the process, you might pick up or hone skills for setting boundaries since overcompensation does not help you become any closer to loved ones. In fact, it may eventually drive a wedge between you. Indeed, you can turn this situation around, and as the transit nears to an end, you are likely to feel better equipped to do so. The Moon moves into your friendship sector today, relieving some of the recent pressure on you to perform.
Capricorn
The Moon moves up to the top of your solar chart early today, dear Capricorn, and you are more emotionally invested in your performance, work, and reputation for a couple of days. Today, there can be some problems coordinating your relationships and work, but you’re definitely in need of more attention to your duties now. Chiron is beginning its retrograde cycle in your solar third house, and until December, you’re in a great position to get in touch with insecurities related to learning, self-expression, being understood, and communication. These can be magnified this week as the shift occurs, after which you grow more accustomed to this inward-turned energy and an inner journey towards understanding your fears, their roots, and how you might find ways to heal.
Aquarius
Chiron has been transiting your solar second house for seven years, dear Aquarius, and will do so for a while longer. Each year, Chiron spends close to five months retrograde, and until December, this retrograde cycle occurs in your sector of money, values, and security. You’ll be gaining a new perspective on your sense of self-worth and how this affects what you’re attracting into your life, by way of income, but also the emotional and spiritual benefits that you deserve. Today and this week, events occurring can be catalysts for this inner journey, introspection, and self-examination. The station itself today and tomorrow can leave you feeling a little confused or without direction, but this is simply about adjusting to a shift. Also today, the Moon moves into your spirit sector, and you’re reaching out for answers, new experiences, and special interests. You’ve been doing more chores than usual recently, and you’re now in need of a change of routine.
Pisces
Chiron is now retrograde until December, dear Pisces, and since 2010, Chiron has been in your sign. Next year, Chiron will venture beyond (although it will return to Pisces for a little while before moving on more permanently). In its retrograde cycle ahead, some of the healing energy that you’ve been radiating turns inward, and it’s a time for working on healing yourself. The shift itself this week can leave you feeling a little misunderstood or vulnerable, but the cycle itself is quite excellent for getting some relief. With Chiron in your sign in recent years, there have been more than the usual demands on your time as people seek your good vibes, assistance, healing powers, and advice. It’s appropriate now to get in closer touch with your own issues, and some kind of a break from doing things for others can help you do so. The Moon moves into your intimacy sector early today — another sign that you need to pay more attention to your deeper needs.

Strong Signs, Elements, Modes
CANCER STRONG
Nurturing, protective, tenacious, emotional sensitive, watery, strong roots. Can be overly protective, unwilling to let go, timid, reclusive.
LIBRA STRONG
Even-handed, harmonious, artistic, diplomatic, balancing, strong sense of fairness. Can be over- compromising, appeasing, judgmental.
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.
WATER STRONG
We are more compassionate, emotional, and intuitive than usual, and we may react emotionally to situations, possibly at the expense of logic or practicality.
BALANCE OF MODES
CARDINAL STRONG
We are ready to take action and to take on challenges, and can become frustrated with stagnant conditions.
FIXED WEAK
We may be open to change but may not have much follow-through.
MUTABLE WEAK
We can have a hard time adapting to changes and to others’ agendas.
LUNAR PHASE: CRESCENT
Moon 45 to 90 degrees ahead of the Sun.
This is an eager, impulsive, and progressive time. We are motivated and ready to take on challenges.
The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on June 30th:
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).

OPPOSITION CHIRON Orb 5°53′ Separating

SATURN
