Speaker 1: Welcome back to another episode of Astrology with Alice. I'm
Speaker 1: your host, Alice Fell, and today we have the Cancer
Speaker 1: Season monthly forecast. I'm actually putting this out a few
Speaker 1: days ahead of Cancer season starting. It doesn't technically begin
Speaker 1: until June twenty first, but it lasts until July twenty second,
Speaker 1: but we haven't action packed month ahead of us. So
Speaker 1: there's a lot happening astrologically. Jupiter is changing signs, it's
Speaker 1: moving from cancer to Leo. We also have a mercury
Speaker 1: retrograde starting in cancer, and Mars is entering Gemini, which
Speaker 1: is really important because it's going to trigger that longer
Speaker 1: transit of Uranus and Gemini. So all of that stuff
Speaker 1: we went over with the Urinus transit stories episode. Expect
Speaker 1: activity in that new house of your chart to be
Speaker 1: more set into motion over the course of the next
Speaker 1: few weeks. It's actually bad, Like I don't I'm not
Speaker 1: really like caring about mercury retrograde starting. I'm just so
Speaker 1: happy that Jupiter is leaving my twelve house this month.
Speaker 1: It's like new beginning, coming out of hiding over the
Speaker 1: last year. I honestly though, like looking ahead at the
Speaker 1: mercury retrograde beginning at the end of June. I do
Speaker 1: see this one as being more chill than the one
Speaker 1: we got back in early March. That one was so chaotic.
Speaker 1: It was mercury retrograd in Pisces, and the reason it
Speaker 1: was felt like very intensely for a lot of people
Speaker 1: was because it ruled the Virgo lunar eclipse that was
Speaker 1: happening at the same time. So in contrast to that
Speaker 1: time period late February early March, mercury isn't being given
Speaker 1: that much power during this retrograde, So I kind of
Speaker 1: expect things to feel slowed down, but not in that
Speaker 1: same chaotic like what's happening in my life? Why is
Speaker 1: everything going wrong? Type of way. But we'll get more
Speaker 1: into specific details regarding all of these transits and more.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be going through all the transits for cancer
Speaker 1: Season week by week, so you can easily refer back
Speaker 1: to key dates that I talk about. Before we get
Speaker 1: into that, though, I just have a couple of announcements.
Speaker 1: The Cancer Season in depth monthly horoscopes will be out
Speaker 1: on Substack on June twenty first, so this coming Sunday,
Speaker 1: So if you want to know what all of what
Speaker 1: I'm about to talk about means for your specific chart.
Speaker 1: That's a great resource. It's a they're extra long this
Speaker 1: month because there's so much to talk about, like twenty
Speaker 1: five hundred to three thousand words this time a written
Speaker 1: guide on what you can expect for the month ahead.
Speaker 1: I'm also going to be hosting an upcoming workshop on substack.
Speaker 1: I believe that's going to be on June twenty eighth,
Speaker 1: but stay tuned for more details if you're a subscriber there.
Speaker 1: That's going to be a virtual version of the live
Speaker 1: event I'm hosting in Brooklyn on June eighteenth. So the
Speaker 1: event I'm hosting, I guess that's literally today when this
Speaker 1: episode comes out, is on the astrology of personal branding
Speaker 1: and career timing and understanding when it's time to make
Speaker 1: a rebrand or pivot in an area of your business
Speaker 1: or your career. So I'm going to be doing the
Speaker 1: virtual version of that over on substack for paid subscribers,
Speaker 1: and also the recording of it will be sent out
Speaker 1: the day after on Monday the twenty ninth. But yeah,
Speaker 1: in general, substack is the place where I get a
Speaker 1: lot more detailed with astrology. So if you're interested in
Speaker 1: going deeper with your studies and just understanding what everything
Speaker 1: means for your chart and how to interpret that in
Speaker 1: a deeper way, check me out there Astrology with Alice
Speaker 1: also on substack. Let's now get into the monthly forecast. Okay,
Speaker 1: so we're kicking things off on week one, which will
Speaker 1: be June twenty first through the twenty seventh, and of course,
Speaker 1: like before we get into all of the other transits,
Speaker 1: the main theme that will be ongoing throughout cancer season
Speaker 1: is of course that the sun is moving into cancer
Speaker 1: on June twenty first, and it's going to be there
Speaker 1: until July twenty second. And cancer season is a water sign,
Speaker 1: and it's also a cardinal sign. So with all of
Speaker 1: the cardinal signs, they mark the start of a brand
Speaker 1: new season. In the part of the world where I live,
Speaker 1: it marks the start of summer. For other people, maybe
Speaker 1: it's the start of winter. So it is the initiation
Speaker 1: of kind of a new phase that will be ongoing
Speaker 1: for the next three months. When I think of cancer season,
Speaker 1: the first themes that come to mind are security, so
Speaker 1: leaning into maybe what feels more safe and comforting, things
Speaker 1: that feel familiar, so that could be wanting to spend
Speaker 1: more time at home or with family, or focusing on
Speaker 1: relationships that feel more nurturing, and comparing that to what
Speaker 1: we're just coming out of Gemini season, where maybe you
Speaker 1: did spread yourself thin with social commitments and work, and
Speaker 1: now as we enter cancer season, you're feeling called to
Speaker 1: slow down and take a step back and focus on
Speaker 1: who and what actually brings greater meaning to your life.
Speaker 1: But yeah, cancer season is such a family focus sign,
Speaker 1: and there may be more time that you're spending with
Speaker 1: family members over the next month. If you don't have
Speaker 1: a great relationship with family, and that wouldn't apply to you.
Speaker 1: It could just be that you're more reflect of your
Speaker 1: past and your childhood and you are thinking about how
Speaker 1: those family dynamics have affected you as a person. I
Speaker 1: definitely think of this as like a more nostalgic time
Speaker 1: of the year, and especially with mercury retrograde starting, which
Speaker 1: we'll get into in a second, you're going to be
Speaker 1: just thinking more about, Okay, what's happened throughout childhood, throughout
Speaker 1: my past, and how is that informing like who I
Speaker 1: am today. Also, your literal living space might be a
Speaker 1: bigger priority over the coming week. So maybe you want
Speaker 1: to like decorate a room in your home, or you're
Speaker 1: thinking about moving, or you just kind of want to
Speaker 1: stay at home and find ways to nurture yourself over
Speaker 1: the coming days. Overall, expect like a less fast paced
Speaker 1: season than we just had a Gemini season, and you're
Speaker 1: getting back to feeling more grounded, taking time to be alone,
Speaker 1: and again just to reiterate, like what type of work
Speaker 1: has more meaning for you? What relationships have more meaning
Speaker 1: for you? Also, maybe can you be more connected to
Speaker 1: what your emotions are telling you and listen to your
Speaker 1: intuition and strengthen that. So, keeping those general cancer season
Speaker 1: themes in mind, I want to go through by element
Speaker 1: of rising sign where you might be finding these themes
Speaker 1: showing up prominently in your life. So for Fire Sign
Speaker 1: Risings aries, Leo Sagittarius risings, cancer season is activating kind
Speaker 1: of the more introverted, mental health focused parts of your chart.
Speaker 1: So maybe you do feel more emotional and like, okay,
Speaker 1: I want to be alone during this time. I feel
Speaker 1: lower energy. I need to make space to rest or.
Speaker 1: Emotions just feel like a lot and you're having to
Speaker 1: face them or work on expressing your feelings better in
Speaker 1: close relationships. Or to also say, the theme of like
Speaker 1: family would be specifically important for like aries risings because
Speaker 1: it is fourth house transit, so wanting to connect with
Speaker 1: family or seeing more happen there. Or again like the
Speaker 1: theme of like the past being important to like what's
Speaker 1: going on with you emotionally today could be something you're encountering.
Speaker 1: And then for Earth sign rising, so Taurus Virgo and
Speaker 1: Cabricorn raisings, cancer season is activating the relationship oriented parts
Speaker 1: of your chart. So those kind of themes of okay,
Speaker 1: where can I find more meaning in these relationships in
Speaker 1: my life, both platonic and romantic may be especially relevant
Speaker 1: for you. And maybe you feel closer to certain people,
Speaker 1: or you want to join in on some type of
Speaker 1: community or connect with friends in a deeper way. Over
Speaker 1: the next few weeks, maybe you want to put yourself
Speaker 1: out there more dating or again, like if you're already
Speaker 1: in a relationship, could just be you're leaning on your
Speaker 1: partner more for support or they may may need more
Speaker 1: of your help, or you're just kind of like wanting
Speaker 1: to be there in a bigger way for the people
Speaker 1: in your life. And then for airsigin risings, So this
Speaker 1: would be Gemini Libra and Aquarius risings. This will be
Speaker 1: a more work focused time of year also that encompasses
Speaker 1: money and like routine and health a bit so kind
Speaker 1: of finding ways to be more productive and taking stock
Speaker 1: of like again bringing that theme of like cancer season,
Speaker 1: like what's speaking to me on a deeper emotional level
Speaker 1: when it comes to my career and also when it
Speaker 1: comes to my daily routine and my wellness practices, like
Speaker 1: how can I show up every day and do I
Speaker 1: don't know, engage in like exercises or little habits in
Speaker 1: the morning that just set me up for a better
Speaker 1: day and like help me to feel more connected to myself.
Speaker 1: Or you could be thinking more about like, Okay, what
Speaker 1: comes next in my career? What do I want to
Speaker 1: be committing to in terms of like bigger projects or
Speaker 1: your own business. It's just important to keep in mind
Speaker 1: with mercury retrogrades starting, if you're not seeing like immediate
Speaker 1: things happening with work, and this goes for like all
Speaker 1: the rising signs are about to talk about, if you're
Speaker 1: not seeing like immediate things or like fast paced movement
Speaker 1: that like propels you ahead in these certain areas we're
Speaker 1: talking about. It's because of that mercury retrograde and all
Speaker 1: these areas are just requiring more careful reflection over the
Speaker 1: next few weeks from you, and then that brings us
Speaker 1: to water sign rising, so cancer, Scorpio and Pisces risings.
Speaker 1: This time of year is going to be more about uncovering,
Speaker 1: like what lights you up, what hobbies, what creative practices
Speaker 1: you want to lean into further, how can you express
Speaker 1: yourself in new ways? Are there certain areas you want
Speaker 1: to learn more about that may inform new personal goals
Speaker 1: you want to pursue. It's just a time of like
Speaker 1: intaking new knowledge, experimenting with creativity and just figuring out, okay,
Speaker 1: what brings me joy. And within this month long transit
Speaker 1: of the sun through the sign of cancer and also
Speaker 1: the cancer ruled house of your chart, there will be
Speaker 1: a couple of dates that may feel more frustrating or
Speaker 1: confusing with these themes we just went over. So the
Speaker 1: first one is happening during this first week of cancer season,
Speaker 1: and that's that on June twenty fifth, the sun and
Speaker 1: cancer will square Neptune and aries, so particularly around the state,
Speaker 1: maybe in like the couple of days surrounding it to
Speaker 1: like June twenty fourth, June twenty fifth, June twenty sixth,
Speaker 1: you could feel lower energy, or you may have like
Speaker 1: feelings of like self doubt come up, like doubting something
Speaker 1: you're working on, or like the direction you're headed in.
Speaker 1: Or you may encounter a situation that feels a bit confusing,
Speaker 1: like miscommunications coming up with someone, or you're just running
Speaker 1: into minor mishaps or slight delays as you go about
Speaker 1: your day. It's almost like a mini precursor to the
Speaker 1: mercury retrograde, which starts just a few days later on
Speaker 1: June twenty ninth. And if you do feel super emotional
Speaker 1: or like very sensitive around this time, know that it'll lift.
Speaker 1: And also just look at, Okay, how am I taking
Speaker 1: maybe something a little bit too personally, or how could
Speaker 1: like turning to a creative or a spiritual practice help
Speaker 1: me during these times instead of trying to focus so
Speaker 1: hard on like productivity or outwards success. Around this June
Speaker 1: twenty fifth time frame, might be asking you, okay, look
Speaker 1: at what's happening internally and how can you feel maybe
Speaker 1: more connected to something bigger than yourself? And that brings
Speaker 1: us to week two, so June twenty eighth to July fourth,
Speaker 1: so right off the bat this week on that Sunday
Speaker 1: on June twenty eighth, Mars moves into Gemini until August eleventh,
Speaker 1: and Mars and Taurus for the last few weeks has
Speaker 1: felt relaxing but not gonna lie. It's also felt kind
Speaker 1: of lazy, like why should I put energy into this?
Speaker 1: Can I get myself off the couch to do work?
Speaker 1: And maybe that's part of me just being super pregnant
Speaker 1: right now, but I always just kind of feel like
Speaker 1: energy is not as intense when Mars is in a
Speaker 1: sign it doesn't do well in like Taurus. So as
Speaker 1: Mars enters the more fast paced air sign of Gemini,
Speaker 1: you could start to get more excited about new ideas, plans,
Speaker 1: projects and opportunities that are coming your way. And because
Speaker 1: Gemini is such a communication oriented sign, you may want
Speaker 1: to invest more energy into things like writing, speaking, work,
Speaker 1: social media content creation, or anything else that's related to
Speaker 1: this topic of communication. And also learning will be a
Speaker 1: bigger deal too during this like six weeks or so
Speaker 1: transit of Mars and Gemini, and there may be several
Speaker 1: different subjects you want to learn about at once, or
Speaker 1: there's like a lot of variety of different books you're reading.
Speaker 1: I am definitely racking up like a huge summer reading list,
Speaker 1: and this is like the first time this year that
Speaker 1: I've been like really wanting to read and like not
Speaker 1: watch TV. So it's a great transit to just work
Speaker 1: on like stimulating your mind in new ways. You may
Speaker 1: also want to pick up a new skill or a
Speaker 1: new hobby that requires more mental focus from you. However,
Speaker 1: the downside of this transit is that you can feel
Speaker 1: more scattered or distracted, like you want to have your
Speaker 1: hand in a lot of different things at once, which
Speaker 1: could feel overwhelming, Like how do I actually narrow down
Speaker 1: what do I care about the most? What do I
Speaker 1: want to learn or write about or share about more
Speaker 1: in depth? So thinking ahead over the course of the
Speaker 1: next few weeks, is there a way to get clear
Speaker 1: on what subjects or skills take priority at the moment.
Speaker 1: And I also think of Gemini as a super social sign,
Speaker 1: which is interesting because we just talked about how cancer
Speaker 1: season is more of an introverted time of year, so
Speaker 1: it could be on the one hand, you are wanting
Speaker 1: to branch out and meet new people but you're also
Speaker 1: trying to balance that with like, Okay, how can I
Speaker 1: be by myself at moments and take time to feel
Speaker 1: grounded or connected to my own emotions. And within this
Speaker 1: month and a half almost transit of Mars through Gemini,
Speaker 1: there will be a really key period to take note of,
Speaker 1: and that's on July third and fourth, when Mars comes
Speaker 1: into this exact conjunction with Uranus and Gemini. And like
Speaker 1: I said at the start, this is triggering that longer
Speaker 1: seven to eight year transit of Uranus through the Gemini
Speaker 1: world House of your chart and bringing up greater change
Speaker 1: there and having you want to make a decision on
Speaker 1: topics that pertain to that Gemini world House in your chart.
Speaker 1: So pay attention to how maybe right around this first
Speaker 1: week of July, there may be unexpected changes you're experiencing
Speaker 1: in an area of your life, specifically that Gemini House
Speaker 1: in your chart, or there's a desire to break free
Speaker 1: from something that's felt more restricting to you, like you're
Speaker 1: just wanting to make more of a quick decision, especially
Speaker 1: if you've been like procrastinating on doing something and that
Speaker 1: doesn't necessarily need to be like a huge life change
Speaker 1: that you're undergoing at this time, but like, I don't
Speaker 1: know if you've been sitting on like an idea for
Speaker 1: a piece of writing, or like a social media post
Speaker 1: that you wanted to put out, but like like a
Speaker 1: sense of fear has been holding you back. Maybe this
Speaker 1: Mars conjunct Gemini is like go for it, like don't
Speaker 1: care what anyone else thinks, just like do it already.
Speaker 1: So having that sense of like greater urgency or being
Speaker 1: more open to change and experimentation really coming in at
Speaker 1: the start of July and returning to those Gemini in
Speaker 1: general themes that we just went over, how is there
Speaker 1: something new that you want to try out, like in
Speaker 1: picking up a new skill for ends, or how is
Speaker 1: there something new you want to write about or learn about,
Speaker 1: like going in a different direction maybe than you're used
Speaker 1: to there And I just keep coming back to that
Speaker 1: word of like experimentation, like trying out new avenues of
Speaker 1: communicating your ideas with people, whether that's the writing, speaking, work,
Speaker 1: social media in your relationships too, like how can you
Speaker 1: connect with people in different ways? Can you try out
Speaker 1: a new group activity in your neighborhood, or is there
Speaker 1: a friend you haven't seen in a while and you're
Speaker 1: deciding to reach out to them at this point. Also,
Speaker 1: Gemini is very much a sign associated with travel, more
Speaker 1: like short term travel though, so it could be that
Speaker 1: you're taking a quick trip somewhere right around this timeframe.
Speaker 1: I mean that's common in the US. This is like
Speaker 1: fourth of July weekend that we're talking about, or it
Speaker 1: could be like in general, you just want to change
Speaker 1: up your daily routine to keep things interesting and get
Speaker 1: a little bit of variety in your everyday life. To
Speaker 1: backtrack though to the start of this week. On June
Speaker 1: twenty ninth, mercury retor to starting in the side of
Speaker 1: cancer and this retrograde is lasting for the rest of
Speaker 1: cancer season. It won't end until July twenty third, So
Speaker 1: the good news is we are starting LEO season off
Speaker 1: with no more mercury retrograde. However, like it's an ongoing
Speaker 1: theme throughout pretty much all of cancer season, and this
Speaker 1: retrograde starts at twenty six degrees of cancer and it
Speaker 1: goes back to sixteen degrees of cancer. So anyone with
Speaker 1: cardinal signs so aries Libra cancer Capricorn chart placements right
Speaker 1: within that sixteen to twenty six degree range of any
Speaker 1: of those signs, those angles or planets in your chart
Speaker 1: are going to feel the impacts of this retrograde the
Speaker 1: most and to return to, like, Okay, what happens typically
Speaker 1: during a mercury retrograde in general, like these next three
Speaker 1: weeks are a time for greater reflection, going back to
Speaker 1: maybe revise something you're working on, make edits before moving
Speaker 1: forward again, Also returning to what feels familiar, what you
Speaker 1: are know and in terms of like career that maybe
Speaker 1: like returning to a past like project idea you had
Speaker 1: or I don't know, like a past skill that maybe
Speaker 1: would serve you to like revisit and learn more about
Speaker 1: so that you can move forward in your career more effectively.
Speaker 1: Like I remember during a mercury retrograde a couple of
Speaker 1: years ago, I was in the midst of writing my book,
Speaker 1: and I had to go back to a lot of
Speaker 1: astrology basics and like get really clear on like what
Speaker 1: did the actual signs mean, Like let's not talk about
Speaker 1: more complex timing techniques at the moment, Like let's get
Speaker 1: very clear on like things I already know, but I
Speaker 1: really need to explore more in depth. So thinking of
Speaker 1: that in terms of work or something you're learning about.
Speaker 1: Have also seen, like with mercury retrograde, revisiting a place
Speaker 1: that holds the past importance to you, or just thinking
Speaker 1: more about childhood and your past in general, Like I
Speaker 1: always find I want to listen to like early two
Speaker 1: thousands music during mercury retrogrades. It's kind of like clockwork,
Speaker 1: or like watch childhood TV shows. And because cancer is
Speaker 1: a sign that is so specifically about the past, those
Speaker 1: themes may be even more relevant than they are during
Speaker 1: a typical mercury retrograde. And then of course this theme
Speaker 1: of like hearing from people from your past, reconnecting with
Speaker 1: people you've had a falling out with or just haven't
Speaker 1: talked to in a while, or it could be that
Speaker 1: in relationships there's something that hasn't been brought up or
Speaker 1: talked about fully in this retrograde will have you doing
Speaker 1: a lot of reflection on like how can I communicate
Speaker 1: my emotions to this other person in a in an
Speaker 1: effective way? But maybe you're not ready to like have
Speaker 1: that conversation yet, and you spend the next few weeks
Speaker 1: kind of figuring out what do I want to say?
Speaker 1: How do I want to approach this before feeling more
Speaker 1: confident in that. But if you do have planets or
Speaker 1: angles affected by this mercury retrograde, you can blend these
Speaker 1: mercury retrograde topics of like needing to go back and
Speaker 1: like more fully understand something or work on reflecting on
Speaker 1: that a bit further with the chart placement involved. So
Speaker 1: like let's say you have a cancer mid heaven that
Speaker 1: is falling within this mercury retrograde sixteen to twenty six
Speaker 1: degree range, then maybe this is a period of like
Speaker 1: really thinking about what do I want to be doing
Speaker 1: in my career and not having the answers yet and
Speaker 1: maybe feeling confused or slowed down with work or like
Speaker 1: uncertain about what is the bigger picture here. But there
Speaker 1: could be something important like from your past that you
Speaker 1: need to remember about what you like and enjoying in career,
Speaker 1: how you can bring more of your interest into the
Speaker 1: work that you're putting out. Whereas like maybe if you
Speaker 1: have a cancer sun that is getting affected by mercury
Speaker 1: retrograde or like a Libra son or an aria sun,
Speaker 1: this topic of like identity and personal goals and how
Speaker 1: do I want to show up in the world, and
Speaker 1: like who am I like all of those kind of
Speaker 1: more existential questions could be coming up at this time.
Speaker 1: But for everyone though, even if you don't have cancer
Speaker 1: ares or libra or Capricorn placements being directly of affected
Speaker 1: by mercury retrograde, still noting what house in your chart
Speaker 1: is ruled by the sign of cancer, how are things
Speaker 1: maybe feeling slowed down there or are a bit unclear
Speaker 1: at the moment, but you are going to spend the
Speaker 1: next several weeks really spending more time thinking about the
Speaker 1: topics of that house. Just because it's merkeura retrograde doesn't
Speaker 1: mean stuff isn't happening there, like oftentimes it is bringing
Speaker 1: up greater activity for you to like work through the
Speaker 1: themes of that house a bit more so, Like if
Speaker 1: you're a Capricorn rising and this is your seventh house cancer,
Speaker 1: your cancer seventhous is where mercury retrograde is occurring, Like
Speaker 1: there could be something that does come up with dating
Speaker 1: and relationships that get you to learn how to communicate
Speaker 1: better with people or really think about like is this
Speaker 1: someone I want to date or how can I move
Speaker 1: forward differently than I have in the past in this
Speaker 1: current partnership and on the same day that this market
Speaker 1: retrograde is happening or is starting, there will also be
Speaker 1: a full moon in Capricorn, and this full moon will
Speaker 1: happen at eight degrees of Capricorn. The ruling planet of
Speaker 1: the full moon is Saturn, which is currently an Aries. Therefore,
Speaker 1: you're gonna see a flurry of activity building in the
Speaker 1: Capricorn rules a house of your chart right in these
Speaker 1: last few days of June. But you could also notice
Speaker 1: themes pertaining to the Aris ruled house of your chart
Speaker 1: surfacing as well. And maybe those two house topics are
Speaker 1: like blending together or influencing each other in a bigger
Speaker 1: way at this time. But yeah, like the busiest period
Speaker 1: out of this whole cancer season maybe clustered, like right
Speaker 1: around this very end of June. I just wanted to
Speaker 1: give a couple of examples of how that may play out,
Speaker 1: like the Capricorn house versus the Ares house and how
Speaker 1: they're blending together. So again, like if you're a Capricorn
Speaker 1: rising and this is a first house full moon that
Speaker 1: you're experiencing, and then also Saturn is currently an Aries
Speaker 1: your fourth house, you may notice that events happening with
Speaker 1: home and family are in turn influencing maybe like how
Speaker 1: you see yourself, what kind of responsibilities you want to
Speaker 1: take on as a person. And it may be that like, okay,
Speaker 1: by setting boundaries with family members or revisiting kind of
Speaker 1: memories from childhood or addressing family dynamics, you're kind of
Speaker 1: like learning how to set better boundaries or stand up
Speaker 1: for yourself. Or it could be that like you're undergoing
Speaker 1: some type of move or transition at home that is
Speaker 1: influencing you in a big way. Or to contrast, if
Speaker 1: you're a cancer rising and this is a seventh house
Speaker 1: Capricorn full moon that you're experiencing, but then Saturn is
Speaker 1: transiting your tenth house, maybe it's this topic of like
Speaker 1: partnership and career. They're both kind of interwoven at this time,
Speaker 1: so maybe there are important like work collaborations that you're
Speaker 1: reflecting more on, like is this someone I want to
Speaker 1: commit to in business? Or how can I accomplish more
Speaker 1: at my job with the help or advice from other people?
Speaker 1: And Capricorn is a sign associated with work and commitments,
Speaker 1: so for everyone, you may be thinking more about like
Speaker 1: what life tasks and responsibilities, either in your career or
Speaker 1: in other areas of your life deserve your time and
Speaker 1: energy and like thinking more strategically about the long term
Speaker 1: and what you want to be working towards. And if
Speaker 1: you're feeling overwhelmed by certain work or responsibilities that are
Speaker 1: just taking over your life, how can you scale back
Speaker 1: in certain areas to really prioritize what is getting me
Speaker 1: to where I want to be in the long term. Also,
Speaker 1: this full moon will make blue square aspects to both
Speaker 1: Saturn and Neptune areas, so kind of brings in me
Speaker 1: the frustrating, confusing elements of these two planets too at
Speaker 1: this time, So there could be an element of like
Speaker 1: frustration that comes up with launching something on into the
Speaker 1: world or making a realization about something that needs to
Speaker 1: change in your life. So if you do feel either
Speaker 1: lower energy, weigh down, stuck, frustrated, try to remind yourself
Speaker 1: that you don't need to have the next few years
Speaker 1: of your life mapped up entirely. Just focus on what
Speaker 1: smaller steps you can take in this immediate moment to
Speaker 1: maybe be more productive or like set you off in
Speaker 1: a new direction or make like smaller changes, and that
Speaker 1: could all tie back in with like what's happening in
Speaker 1: the coppercorn worldhouse if your chart, so like for me
Speaker 1: as a Leo rising, that's my sixth house. So maybe
Speaker 1: there's something that comes up that feels lower energy with
Speaker 1: my health or work just feels kind of overwhelming at
Speaker 1: this time, and it's like, Okay, what are small steps
Speaker 1: I can show up to do every day, like choose
Speaker 1: a healthier snack, or wake up a bit earlier, or
Speaker 1: take smaller steps on a bigger project that needs to
Speaker 1: get done immediately rather than getting caught up in like
Speaker 1: where am I headed with work in the next five years?
Speaker 1: Or how can I get my body back after I
Speaker 1: have a baby type of thing. Okay, whoa, there's so
Speaker 1: much happening in the second week of July this I'm
Speaker 1: looking at my outline and it just keeps going and
Speaker 1: going and going for this second week. So after the
Speaker 1: day after the full moon occurs June thirtieth, Jupiter will
Speaker 1: finally depart Cancer after spending a little over a year
Speaker 1: in this sign. It was in Cancer since June ninth
Speaker 1: of twenty twenty five, and it's moving into Leo on
Speaker 1: June thirtieth, and Jupiter will be in Leo until July
Speaker 1: twenty six twenty twenty seven. Interpret this transit, we can
Speaker 1: incorporate the themes of Jupiter as a planet with the
Speaker 1: themes of Leo as a sign, and so Jupiter is
Speaker 1: the planet associated with education, spirituality, travel, teaching, and writing.
Speaker 1: And over the course of the next few months, as
Speaker 1: it really gets going in Leo, note how these themes
Speaker 1: of Jupiter get interwoven into a creative practice or how
Speaker 1: you want to express yourself, like Leo is so much
Speaker 1: about returning to your own interests, like how can you
Speaker 1: play around, have joy in your life, return to hobbies
Speaker 1: you once loved as a child, get creative in new ways,
Speaker 1: And maybe you're letting go of a certain image you
Speaker 1: have of success as you allow yourself to simply experiment
Speaker 1: and have fun with what you're learning or sharing about.
Speaker 1: And applying this to the second half of twenty twenty
Speaker 1: six and the first half of twenty twenty seven, like
Speaker 1: just always keep in mind Leo prioritizes joy, entertainment, creativity,
Speaker 1: and being your own person. And noting the house in
Speaker 1: your chart that is ruled by Leo, like so much
Speaker 1: is about to happen in that house, like not only
Speaker 1: is Jupiter moving into this house, of your chart for
Speaker 1: the next year. There's also eclipses, like the south note
Speaker 1: is moving into Leo at the end of July, which
Speaker 1: we'll talk about in next month's forecast, and eclipses will
Speaker 1: start happening there, and then we get a super long
Speaker 1: Mars transit in a Mars retrograde activating Leo as well.
Speaker 1: So just noting, like what house is that for you?
Speaker 1: How is just greater change about to occur their overall
Speaker 1: throughout the next few months. With any Jupiter transit, it
Speaker 1: can make things feel overwhelming to the area that it
Speaker 1: is transitting for that year, it brings up more activity there,
Speaker 1: but sometimes it can feel like a lot and it's
Speaker 1: hard to direct your energy elsewhere, like for instance, Jupiter
Speaker 1: and the tenth. Maybe you might expect, okay, greater career
Speaker 1: stuff to go on, but sometimes it can just be that,
Speaker 1: like work is a lot busier and these bigger career
Speaker 1: commitments or experiencing growth in your job role takes up
Speaker 1: so much of your energy that maybe you don't have
Speaker 1: a lot of time for like your personal life. And
Speaker 1: just to give another few examples of like how this
Speaker 1: will play out for a different rising signs, So Scorpio rising,
Speaker 1: you are getting that Jupiter through the tenth house, like
Speaker 1: where work will be a bigger deal over the next year.
Speaker 1: And then for Leo risings like this is going to
Speaker 1: be a great time of tapping into new parts of
Speaker 1: your identity, maybe feeling like you're becoming a new version
Speaker 1: of yourself, especially with the eclipses in Leo two or yeah,
Speaker 1: kind of being more comfortable being seen and like putting
Speaker 1: yourself out there in different ways. And then another example
Speaker 1: Piss's risings like this would be a six house Jupiter
Speaker 1: transit for you. So this topic of like health, how
Speaker 1: do I better take care of myself? How do I
Speaker 1: get better like organized with work and like other responsibilities
Speaker 1: so that like my schedule isn't so chaotic every day.
Speaker 1: And because this Jupiter transit is lasting for a little
Speaker 1: over a year, there will be peak time periods within
Speaker 1: this transit where you're feeling that theme of like Jupiter
Speaker 1: moving through a specific house of your chart a lot
Speaker 1: more intensely. So one will be this upcoming Leo season,
Speaker 1: especially with the solar eclipse in Leo in the middle
Speaker 1: of August, like that will kind of bring up this
Speaker 1: theme of change or a new start to the Leo
Speaker 1: world house of your chart. Another timeframe to watch would
Speaker 1: be October and November, when Mars moves through Leo and
Speaker 1: conjunct Jupiter at a certain point those two much like
Speaker 1: you're gonna want to take greater action and have stuff
Speaker 1: happen in the Leo worldhouse of your chart. And then
Speaker 1: also March, April and May of twenty twenty seven. This
Speaker 1: is like when Mars is wrapping up its retrograde the
Speaker 1: last month or so, it is spinning in the sign
Speaker 1: of Leo, then it stations direct and it moves forward
Speaker 1: again once again also in Leo. So that time period
Speaker 1: next spring March April, May, there may be more a
Speaker 1: lot more clarity that comes to you about like how
Speaker 1: you want to proceed in that Leo ropehouse of your chart,
Speaker 1: especially if things aren't totally clear in the second half
Speaker 1: of twenty twenty six. And it may be that, like
Speaker 1: you think something is going to happen one way in
Speaker 1: this house of your chart, and then by the time
Speaker 1: we get to like the wrap up of this transit
Speaker 1: in that timeframe of like April and May of twenty
Speaker 1: twenty seven, you're kind of off in a different direction
Speaker 1: there one that maybe you don't fully anticipate in this
Speaker 1: current moment, so stay open to change and like going
Speaker 1: through a bigger transition in that specific area of your chart.
Speaker 1: And there will also be like two phases I guess
Speaker 1: three phases of this Jupiter in Leo transit. One is
Speaker 1: like it's entering this sign now at the end of June.
Speaker 1: Jupiter is still direct up until Sagittarius season. So between
Speaker 1: now and like December, seeing a first wave of growth
Speaker 1: happen in the Leo worldhouse of your chart, and then
Speaker 1: Jupiteral station retrograde from Sagittarius season until Airy season, So
Speaker 1: that may be a time of like, okay, slowing things
Speaker 1: down a bit there, reflecting on what comes next. And
Speaker 1: then once Jupiter stations direct again in Airy season and
Speaker 1: wraps up that transit from Airy season up until Leo
Speaker 1: season of twenty twenty seven, that's that kind of like
Speaker 1: final wrap up of the transit of Okay, we've got
Speaker 1: to handle on this. Now we're seeing maybe the results
Speaker 1: we wanted to have happen at the start of this
Speaker 1: transit weren't fully like coming full circle or a full
Speaker 1: like occurring until the end of it. Around like April
Speaker 1: of twenty twenty seven up until July of twenty twenty seven,
Speaker 1: So that brings us to the end of week two,
Speaker 1: finally moving into week three. This is July fifth through eleventh.
Speaker 1: I mentioned earlier, like at the start, when we were
Speaker 1: talking about the Sun moving through cancer this month, how
Speaker 1: there are a couple of tricky dates within this Sun's
Speaker 1: transit of cancer. The first was that Sun square Neptune
Speaker 1: on June twenty fifth, but a little later on in
Speaker 1: the month, the second kind of harder date will be
Speaker 1: the Sun squaring Saturn on July sixth, So that's another
Speaker 1: date to pay att engine two with, like, maybe, how
Speaker 1: are you feeling a bit overwhelmed with worker responsibilities? How
Speaker 1: can you get clear on what's worth committing to? Maybe
Speaker 1: there's a certain area like looking at the cancer and
Speaker 1: the areas world houses of your chart, like are you
Speaker 1: frustrated in either of those areas? Or are things taking
Speaker 1: too long to have happened or requiring a lot more
Speaker 1: energy and like patients from you? And I just feel
Speaker 1: like you're gonna have to put hard work into something
Speaker 1: right around July six I think this may fall on
Speaker 1: a weekend. Actually does it no, it's Monday. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: Monday after a holiday weekend. Yeah, I would maybe just
Speaker 1: expect to feel a bit more tired than usual or
Speaker 1: kind of like frustrated with things minor happenings that come
Speaker 1: up that may have you feeling slowed down or like
Speaker 1: things just aren't as flowing as much as you would like.
Speaker 1: Then we skip forward a few days two July ninth,
Speaker 1: and this is when Venus moves into Virgo. I see
Speaker 1: this as a great transit for leaning into wellness practices,
Speaker 1: taking care of yourself more so, if you've fallen off
Speaker 1: with like exercising regularly or eating more healthy, maybe you're
Speaker 1: finding greater enjoyment into returning to these types of activities.
Speaker 1: As we head into the middle of July, and Venus
Speaker 1: will be in Virgo until August sixth, so a little
Speaker 1: under a month. Also associate Virgo with like productivity and work,
Speaker 1: so it could feel like you are being more productive
Speaker 1: at your job if things felt slowed down there with
Speaker 1: mercury retrograde beginning for the end of June and like
Speaker 1: the first part of July, and maybe this is kind
Speaker 1: of the kick you need to get a little bit
Speaker 1: more organized, lean into self care, focus on the little
Speaker 1: mundane tasks that make up your day and like add
Speaker 1: up to having greater success. So yeah, not as much
Speaker 1: going on in week three. So let's go ahead and
Speaker 1: move into week four, which is July twelfth through the eighteenth.
Speaker 1: So once again focusing on this transit of Venus in Virgo. Now,
Speaker 1: once we get to week four on July fourteenth, Venus
Speaker 1: and Virgo will square Uranus and Gemini. So Urinus brings
Speaker 1: this topic of unexpected changes sudden advancements to Venusian themes.
Speaker 1: So maybe you do experience kind of slight changes going
Speaker 1: on in your relationships, like maybe you hear from a
Speaker 1: friend unexpectedly or in an existing partnership, you need a
Speaker 1: bit of space to just do your own thing, tend
Speaker 1: to your own hobbies. I wouldn't expect like anything super
Speaker 1: major to come up with relationships during this period, but
Speaker 1: more just like, okay, maybe let's change up like who
Speaker 1: we hang out with or I don't know, activities we
Speaker 1: do as a couple or within a friendship, or maybe
Speaker 1: you attend a social event around this middle of July
Speaker 1: time frame and you come into contact with like a
Speaker 1: lot of new interesting people. Also, it could be that
Speaker 1: like sudden creative inspiration comes to you right around the state,
Speaker 1: and that may have to do with like activities you're
Speaker 1: involved in in the Virgo roomhouse of your chart. So
Speaker 1: stay open to like inspiration and maybe wanting to go
Speaker 1: in a different direction there. And there could be like
Speaker 1: just sudden news or like unanticipated developments that occur right
Speaker 1: around the middle of July looking at that Virgo world
Speaker 1: house in your chart. And also because Minus deals with
Speaker 1: the topic of money and personal finances, just I don't know,
Speaker 1: maybe pay attention more to your spending at this time,
Speaker 1: Like could be that unexpected expenses end up coming up,
Speaker 1: or you want to like splurge on something a bit
Speaker 1: more impulsively, and it'll could be tied back in with
Speaker 1: like wellness stuff, like maybe you're like, Okay, I need
Speaker 1: the kind of a spa day to myself, or I
Speaker 1: want to get this new like stuff for my skincare routine,
Speaker 1: or there's like a cool new exercise or there's a
Speaker 1: cool new like workout studio that just opened. I really
Speaker 1: want to try it out. But if you are in
Speaker 1: the mindset of, like I need to save more money
Speaker 1: at the moment, maybe just be open to like, okay,
Speaker 1: this week, maybe that's not entirely possible, and I just
Speaker 1: have to expect that there may be expenses that I
Speaker 1: didn't plan for that surface. And on this same day,
Speaker 1: so also July fourteenth, there will be the new moon
Speaker 1: in cancer, and this new moon takes place at twenty
Speaker 1: two degrees of cancer and will be in this close
Speaker 1: configuration with mercury retrograde. So actually the sun mercury kazimi
Speaker 1: would have just occurred the day prior on July thirteenth.
Speaker 1: So I'm actually viewing this new moontime frame of right
Speaker 1: in this middle of July as giving you much needed
Speaker 1: clarity on problems or thoughts or like situations that have
Speaker 1: been bothering you or you've just been intensely reflecting on
Speaker 1: throughout the first half of the retrograde and maybe noticing
Speaker 1: after the point of this new moon occurring on the fourteenth,
Speaker 1: Ford momentum is starting to pick back up again in
Speaker 1: different areas of your life. It's like, if you've been
Speaker 1: searching for answers up until this point, almost like a
Speaker 1: light bulb moment is going off around the thirteen fourteenth
Speaker 1: of oh, this is what I need to do. Next,
Speaker 1: this is what I need to explore further, or this
Speaker 1: is maybe how I want to pivot with things at
Speaker 1: work or in a relationship. And if you really haven't
Speaker 1: seen a lot take place in the cancer worldhouse of
Speaker 1: your chart throughout this start of cancer season, see how
Speaker 1: a surge of growth or opportunities start to come in
Speaker 1: there more once this new moon occurs on July fourteenth.
Speaker 1: New moons can also be about shedding or experiencing endings
Speaker 1: as well, So maybe there is something you want to
Speaker 1: let go of that has to do with the cancer
Speaker 1: worldhouse of your chart at this time, so that you
Speaker 1: can make space for what needs to come next. Also,
Speaker 1: new moons are lower energy, where it's you kind of
Speaker 1: just want to like retreat, be alone for a bit,
Speaker 1: reflect on what what do I want to put my
Speaker 1: energy into over the next month starting from mid July,
Speaker 1: and then we are to week five July nineteenth through
Speaker 1: the twenty second, so right as cancer season ends, and
Speaker 1: this is right around July twentieth, but give or take
Speaker 1: a few days on either side. Because this is a
Speaker 1: major aspect configuration we're about to go over. We have
Speaker 1: Jupiter and Leo is coming into an opposition with Pluto
Speaker 1: and Aquarius. Jupiter is also trying Neptune and aries and
Speaker 1: sex tiling. You're in acent and so Jupiter, Pluto, Neptune,
Speaker 1: and Urinus are all in this big configuration to one another.
Speaker 1: They're all at four degrees of fire and air signs.
Speaker 1: And I went over this a bit more in depth
Speaker 1: in a Substack newsletter from a few days ago. It's
Speaker 1: free for anyone to read. But you'll want to identify, okay,
Speaker 1: what houses are associated with Leo, Gemini, Ares and Aquarius
Speaker 1: in your chart, in the topics of these houses because
Speaker 1: they're ruled by elements of fire and air, and fire
Speaker 1: and air go well together, Like the topics of these
Speaker 1: houses will kind of share similar themes. How are you
Speaker 1: seen across these areas like a search of growth or
Speaker 1: a desire to kind of incorporate all of those house
Speaker 1: topics together. So just to break this down in a
Speaker 1: few examples, So with an aries rising chart, you have
Speaker 1: Jupiter now in your fifth house, it's sexiling Neurinus in
Speaker 1: your third house, which is sexiling Neptune in your first house,
Speaker 1: which is sex styling Pluto in your eleventh, and then
Speaker 1: Pluto's bringing it back to that opposition with Jupiter in
Speaker 1: your fifth, so fifth, third, first, and eleventh that are
Speaker 1: all working together in a positive way, So that may
Speaker 1: play out as Okay, there's stuff I'm doing in a
Speaker 1: creative practice or with my own hobbies or kind of
Speaker 1: learning to express myself in new ways that is feeding
Speaker 1: into having greater confidence in who I am and how
Speaker 1: I want to show up in community and relationships, and
Speaker 1: also maybe share my creativity through things like writing or
Speaker 1: social media or different channels of communication. So you're kind
Speaker 1: of seeing, okay, how are we blending all of those
Speaker 1: key themes together, and in general, like for fire and
Speaker 1: air sign risings, the next several months will be more
Speaker 1: about like bringing the attention back to yourself and finding
Speaker 1: out more of who you are, how you want to
Speaker 1: show up in relationships, this topic of personal creativity being
Speaker 1: a lot more relevant and learning new skills, whereas if
Speaker 1: you have a water or earth sign rising, it's more
Speaker 1: about like, how can I find deeper meaning through the
Speaker 1: work that I'm doing, but also kind of learning more
Speaker 1: about your inner self and taking time to regroup and reflect.
Speaker 1: And I don't know, if you're feeling like burned out
Speaker 1: by at the fast pace you have been going recently.
Speaker 1: The next few months could be about slowing down and
Speaker 1: really figuring out what work speaks to me on a
Speaker 1: deeper level, and also like how can I address maybe
Speaker 1: this like mental health stuff going on with me. But
Speaker 1: because all of these planets will be connecting across four
Speaker 1: degrees of their respective signs, that's the first second of
Speaker 1: each of these signs. And I looked further into okay,
Speaker 1: what is the first decand of Uranus or sorry for
Speaker 1: a second of Gemini, Leo Aquarius mean and all of them,
Speaker 1: though they are different in some ways, they do share
Speaker 1: a common thread of figuring out like what you want
Speaker 1: to be doing, like prioritizing your own identity, honing in
Speaker 1: on specific skills you want to develop, and having fun
Speaker 1: with the creative process. Again, I feel like throughout this
Speaker 1: whole forecast, I just keep coming back to the words
Speaker 1: of creativity and experimentation, and as we shift into the
Speaker 1: second half of twenty twenty six, those are really key
Speaker 1: themes to keep in mind, no matter if that applies
Speaker 1: to work or a spiritual practice or things going on
Speaker 1: with yourself or a literal like artistic practice or in relationships.
Speaker 1: It's all about like refinding joy and like ways to
Speaker 1: have fun and not being so I don't know, focused
Speaker 1: on like long term success, like it's lean into the
Speaker 1: present and like what makes you happy right now? Like
Speaker 1: things are so heavy in the world at the moment
Speaker 1: that I feel like we all need this reminder of Okay,
Speaker 1: how are their little ways to find joy and find
Speaker 1: your way back to yourself over the coming weeks. So yeah,
Speaker 1: that is where I'm leaving you this Cancer season. Next
Speaker 1: forecast will be great. We'll start off in LEO season
Speaker 1: Mercury Retrograde will be about to end on July twenty third,
Speaker 1: So LEO seasons starting off in a completely different way.
Speaker 1: Ready to move forward once again. As a final note,
Speaker 1: I will be back next Thursday. I have an astrologer
Speaker 1: friend guest on. We're going to be talking about dealing
Speaker 1: with difficult birth chart placements and also transits. However, I'm
Speaker 1: not going to be airing podcast episodes the first two
Speaker 1: weeks of July July second and ninth, I'll be off,
Speaker 1: and then I'll be back on starting July sixteenth. Every
Speaker 1: single week up until my self imposed podcast maternity leave
Speaker 1: starts at the beginning of September. So second half of
Speaker 1: July and all of August. You can expect new episodes.
Speaker 1: Still have so many fun guests that I'm interviewing a
Speaker 1: lot of fun astrologers. But yeah, I hope everyone has
Speaker 1: a great month ahead, and I'll see you back here
Speaker 1: next Thursday's
