Neptune continues to be retrograde this whole month

(until Nov. 9, 2011) between 28º26’ and 28º42’ Aquarius. This degree is symbolized in the Sabian Symbols by “Deeply rooted in the past of a very ancient culture, a spiritual brotherhood in which many individual minds are merged into the glowing light of an unanimous consciousness, is revealed to one who has emerged successfully from its metamorphosis.” The more enlightened we become, the more we understand the true wisdom of the indigenous people who have kept the ancient traditions alive through centuries of persecution and misunderstanding. As we meditate, live with a pure heart, we are coming in direct contact with the divine roots of humanity.

Pluto continues to be retrograde this whole month

between 4º43’ and 4º00’ Capricorn. The Sabian Symbols associate this degree to the following image: “Ten logs under an archway leading to darker woods.” The more light is flooding our consciousness, the more information is being downloaded from higher spheres, the more what needs to shift within us is being revealed. It is not that there is more darkness in the world, it is just more visible now, giving us a chance to purify our hearts and become clear vessels for the divine.

Our Intentional Meditation

Our intentional meditation began on May 27

with the Full Moon in Sagittarius. On Saturday, June 12, take out your Full Moon charged papers and write one positive, concise intention per sheet. Place your papers out to be activated by the New Moon in Gemini, making sure they are on a balcony, in a garden or near a window by exactly 4:15 AM. Once that moment has passed, staple your sheets together, write the date and put them away, expecting a miracle!

Our next intentional meditation begins on Saturday June 26

Take out as many blank sheets as you will have intentions, and place them out (on a balcony, near a window or in a garden) to be charged by the Full Moon in Capricorn at exactly 4:30 AM. Once that moment has passed, gather your sheets and place them in a folder until the next New Moon (Solar Eclipse) on Sunday July 11.

Friday 6/4: Mars opposition Neptune (10:54 AM)

Important to stay grounded today. Deception could occur. A situation could be misrepresented. People could be insensitive in a way that makes us go cold. Strange circumstances could happen that make our life feel a little surreal.

Saturday 6/5: Jupiter enters Aries (11:29 PM till September 7)

The start of new beginnings financially. We could completely reinvent ourselves in money matters, start a new business or simplify our lives so profoundly as to need nothing that we thought we couldn’t live without. We could set out on an adventure that give us new wings.

Sunday 6/6: Mars enters Virgo (11:11 PM till July 29)

Virgo natives are favored in the next couple of months. For all of us, our energy becomes more focused, detailed and organized. We assert ourselves with more purity. Healers are greatly supported by this transit.

Tuesday 6/8: Jupiter Conjunct Uranus (4:25 AM), Mercury Trine Saturn (4:15 PM)

A day to confidently make positive changes in our lives. We have outgrown the past and are ready to assert our independence and uniqueness in a whole new way. We are also very focused and organized today. Our long term ambitions are supported by disciplined work and serious thoughts.

Wednesday 6/9: Mercury Square Neptune (3:40 AM), Mercury enters Gemini (10:41 PM till June 25)

Today, we should avoid signing contracts, or if we must, make sure someone else checks the fine print for us. Deception could occur. Facts could be flawed. Betrayals could take place. During the next three weeks, we are more curious, communicative, sociable. We love to learn and seek multi-dimentionality in our dealings with life.

Thursday 6/10: Mercury Sextile Uranus (3:29 AM), Mercury Sextile Jupiter (6:42 AM)

A great day for communication. Our mind is open and expansive. Answers come in flashes of insight. We are connecting seemingly unrelated dots and coming up with creative, unusual solutions to old problems. Wonderful for an unexpected, exciting adventure.

Friday 6/11: Mercury Square Mars (6:29 AM)

Best not to jump to conclusions without having all the facts in hand. We could respond in rash, impulsive ways, which we regret later. Anger flares up. We should be cautious when operating a motor vehicle.

Saturday 6/12: Venus Sextile Saturn (8:18 AM)

A great day to become very realistic with regard to our love relationships. We could either become more committed or realize that we have reached a dead-end street and need to move forward differently.

Monday 6/14: Venus enters Leo (1:50 AM till July 10), Venus Trine Uranus (10:21 AM)

During the next month, romance is on our mind. We want our relationship to be glamorous. Today, more particularly, is great for unusual connections. A date could be very exciting. We could attract free-spirited people who expand our intellectual and social horizons or inject a renewed joy in an existing love relationship.

Tuesday 6/15: Venus Trine Jupiter (1:07 AM), Mars Trine Pluto (5:09 AM)

A great day for an adventurous date either with the person we are committed to or a new person who opens us to wider horizons if we are single. Our social interactions today are light and fun. We are more courageous and assert our power in a charismatic way. Our energy is direct and forceful, enabling us to get things done.

Saturday 6/19: Sun Square Saturn (6:19 AM), Sun Trine Neptune (5:23 PM)

We could feel a little spaced out today and feel the burden of what we have to accomplish versus what we would wish to do. Disappointments could set in at work or with people in authority. We could feel left out. A day to focus on meditation and reorganize our lives with more realism.

Monday 6/21: Sun enters Cancer -Summer Solstice- (1:50 AM till July 22), Sun Square Uranus (5:28 PM)

The next month enhances matters related to safety, financial security, emotions, artistic creation, food, children and family in general. Today, more specifically, we could feel tense, nervous and erratic. Sudden breaks could occur as well as unexpected turns of events. We could either meet new people, or acquaintances from our past may resurface causing both disturbances and excitement.

Wednesday 6/23: Sun Square Jupiter (6:21 AM)

We could feel over-optimistic and make rash decisions. A day to avoid excesses and feel gratitude for what we have, rather than focusing on what is not presently in our lives that we wish were there.

Thursday 6/24: Mercury Trine Neptune (11:34 AM)

A wonderful day for meditation, channeling, creative writing, working in film or with photography. Artists are greatly inspired today. Our mind is sensitive. We could feel elevated or drained depending on the people we interact with, the books we read or the films we watch. Important to feed our lives with positive messages today.

Friday 6/25: Mercury enters Cancer (3:32 AM till July 9), Mercury Square Uranus (9:37 AM), Sun Opposition Pluto (11:53 AM)

During the next few weeks, we think more subjectively, are more sensitive and emotional. Our concerns could turn to security, food and children. We could become attracted to drawing or photography. Water also holds a special appeal. Today more particularly, we receive sudden, unexpected answers to our questions. Cherished ideas could be shattered. Self-change is coerced at a deep level so that we may reclaim our personal power in positive ways.

Saturday 6/26: Mercury Square Jupiter (4:08 AM)

Beware of extremes today. Great expectations and over-enthusiasm could lead to blind judgments that we live to regret. We could promise more than we can deliver. Best to focus on philosophy. Excellent also for having a good time with loyal, old friends we know we can trust and count on.

Sunday 6/27: Mercury Opposition Pluto (0:14 AM)

Great for scientific research or investigating occult secrets. We are able to X-ray situations and people. We should beware of manipulative people and/oe of such tendencies in ourselves. Power games or black mailing are likely and should be avoided at all costs. A day to realize that our words and thoughts have the power to create or destroy. Important to remain very positive.

Monday 6/28: Sun Conjunct Mercury (5:07 AM)

A great day for communication. Our mind is alert. We express ourselves positively. Our goals are clear. Much work can be effortlessly accomplished today.

 

Wishing you all the best.

In Loving Light.
