Mercury Enters Cancer

Mercury finally gets out of Gemini, enters Cancer at exactly 3:35 pm CDT, and stays there until July 27th. Mercury has been in Gemini for the last 8 weeks, which is unusually long due to its retrograde. Many of us are mentally exhausted at this point due to overthinking and our minds racing. Begin to shift away from communicating in a way where you are just collecting information or focusing on the facts. We can actually care about others through our words by reaching out, asking thoughtful questions, and communicating empathy.

Venus Enters Leo

On Saturday, June 26th, Venus will enter Leo at exactly 11:27 pm CDT and stay here until July 21st. This should be a relatively nice emotional shift as Venus leaves Cancer, helping us leave some of our emotional insecurities behind and move forward with purpose and determination. So embrace your loyal and charismatic qualities, act with more affection, and radiate warmth.

Sun Enters Cancer

The Sun will leave Gemini and enter Cancer on Sunday, June 20th at exactly 10:32 pm CDT. This event also marks the Summer/Winter Solstice. Cancer is a sign ruled by the Moon, so we are often extra sensitive, and our moods rarely stay in one place. The Sun will be pretty busy during its time in Cancer which should help us work through some of the emotions we’ve put on hold.

Mars Enters Leo

Mars officially enters Leo on Friday, June 11th at 8:34 am CDT. Mars will stay here for about two months until July 29th. We will start to shift our focus away from others and more towards ourselves. Start doing things that make you feel good! Put yourself out there more, and take some (calculated) risks! Embrace the part of you that is strong-willed and self-assured!

Venus Enters Cancer

Venus will leave Gemini and enter Cancer Wednesday, June 2nd at exactly 8:19 am CDT. Venus will stay in Cancer until June 26th, so we should spend the next three weeks focusing on nurturing what we care about and examining any insecurities that lead us to bond with undesirable people. Mercury will also be retrograde for most of Venus’ time in Cancer, so be careful if people from your past resurface; make sure you do not let them emotionally take advantage of you. Maintain those healthy boundaries while securing the relationships that build you up.

Saturn Retrograde in Aquarius

Saturn will station retrograde in Aquarius on May 23rd and continue this motion until October 10th, 2021. We should hold off starting any important long-term projects if possible until Saturn stations direct, as this is a time for reflection and review. If you know what house in your chart has Aquarius on the cusp, consider especially that area of your life. There may be matters that need some adjustments or rethinking.

Sun Enters Gemini

The Sun enters Gemini on Thursday, May 20th at 2:37 pm CDT. While the Sun was in Taurus, we focused more on establishing ourselves and securing tangible assets; now, we should direct our attention to making adjustments or modifications using our mental abilities and connecting with others. Notice what you learn when you are more engaged and curious about the world around you. Gemini is ruled by Mercury, which is also in Gemini right now about to station retrograde, so the next four weeks may have us rethinking some issues and exploring new ideas about moving forward.

Jupiter Enters Pisces

Jupiter finally leaves Aquarius and enters Pisces on Thursday, May 13th at exactly 5:36 pm CDT and will stay here until July 28th. Jupiter’s time in Pisces will only be 11 weeks as it has a retrograde cycle coming up on June 20th that will push it back into Aquarius. Jupiter is much happier in Pisces, where its emotional optimism is welcomed, and its search for the deeper meanings behind matters is honored. We should also expect to see artistic and creative projects getting much more attention over the next couple of months as we reprioritize their role in our culture.

Venus Enters Gemini

Venus leaves Taurus and enters Gemini at exactly 9:01 pm CDT on Saturday, May 8th. Venus will stay in Gemini until June 2nd. It is time for us to focus on communicating what we desire and expect from others. We should also shift our focus to those in our lives with who we can have an easy conversation or share a joke as they will become more important to us.

Mercury Enters Gemini

Mercury enters Gemini on Monday, May 3rd, at precisely 9:49 pm CDT. Mercury will finally be back in one of its home signs increasing Mercury’s power and ability to express itself. The end of May will also feature a Mercury retrograde that will last from May 29th until June 22nd, so get things in order now and prepare for a complicated June.

Mars Enters Cancer

Mars entered Cancer Friday, April 23rd at exactly 6:49 am CDT. Mars will stay in this water sign until June 11th, 2021. The next couple of months should be spent slowing down a little and working with our emotions more. The Moon will now rule Mars, so emotions may be all over the place. We must remember to prioritize processing our feelings before acting on them.

Sun Enters Taurus

The Sun leaves Aries and enters Taurus at 3:33 pm CDT, April 19th dissipating the intensity of the last few weeks into something more foundational and deliberate. We are ready to transition into a more security-focused and intentional space. The next four weeks should be spent focusing on how we can achieve some comfort and stability, not just for ourselves but for others as well.
