[Fate & Free Will ]

Astrology for the Week of June 13 - 19

Before we get started, I want you to know that all times I’m going to mention are in the Eastern time zone. If you want to see the aspects discussed in the forecast on your digital calendar in your time zone, you can get that here.

This is an exciting week filled with forward momentum.

Monday 6/13: 

• ☽ at 05° 31‘ Sagittarius △ ♃ at 05° 31‘ Aries | 3:25 am
• ☿ ▻ Gemini | 11:26 am
• ☽ at 14° 43‘ Sagittarius △ ♂︎ at 14° 43‘ Aries | 6:05 pm

Monday, Mercury skips into Gemini like a little imp breaking free from gravity. He’s only a few short hops away from new territory but just moving into Gemini will likely provide greater mental clarity.

There is a full moon tomorrow morning so if you have any manifestation magic you want to work on, tonight is a good time for it. Especially for topics related to your Sagittarius house.

Tuesday 6/14:

•  ☽ at 23° 25‘ Sagittarius ☉ at 23° 25‘ Gemini | 7:51 am
• ☽ at 25° 10‘ Sagittarius ✳ ♄ at 25° 10‘ Aquarius  | 10:37 am
• ☽ at 25° 23‘ Sagittarius □ ♆ at 25° 23‘ Pisces | 10:58 am
•  ☽ ▻ Capricorn | 6:14 pm

Tuesday morning, we have the Sagittarius Full Moon at 7:51 am eastern. What do you need to let go of in order to fully manifest what you want in this area of life?

The letting go may not be the easiest thing in the history of ever. It probably requires a lot of healing and you may not want to do it. But everything in the sky says while you may not want to, you probably know you need to if you truly want a new experience. 

By rising sign, topics up for you with this Full Moon include:

• Aries Rising: Higher education, divination, foreign travel, religion, astrology, and the divine masculine
• Taurus Rising: Investment, other people’s money, debt, topics concerning death, psychology, taxes, fears, and the occult
• Gemini Rising: Committed relationships, contracts, business partners, and other contractual relationships
• Cancer Rising: Physical health, coworkers, your job, pets, and the things you feel obligated to
• Leo Rising: Children, pleasure, romance, dating, sexuality, and the creative arts
• Virgo Rising: Home, family, home life, land, ancestors, private self, and your emotional foundation
• Libra Rising: Communication, siblings, divination, short distance travel, neighborhood, writing, and the divine feminine
• Scorpio Rising: Money, possessions, resources, and self-worth
• Sagittarius Rising: Your identity, appearance, personality, and character
• Capricorn Rising: Mental health, unconscious, and spiritual liberation
• Aquarius Rising: Friends, alliances, your hopes, and your dreams
• Pisces Rising: Your reputation, profession, actions, and ambitions

The afternoon should be quieter and offer plenty of opportunities to reflect and release or to do some deep work on a project without interruptions if you want a more practical application. 

Wednesday 6/15:

• ☽ at 05° 47‘ Capricorn □ ♃ at 05° 47‘ Aries | 3:21 am
• ☽ at 16° 13' Capricorn □ ♂︎ at 16° 13' Aries | 7:49 pm
• ☽ at 17° 04‘ Capricorn △ ♅ at 17° 04‘ Taurus | 9:09 pm

Wednesday is action-oriented. It’s a great time to move through your to-do list. Just remember, other people will be wanting to get all their things done too and conflicting priorities could cause tension.

Friendly reminder from your favorite Mars avatar, deep breaths and a mantra you can repeat in your head are a great way to change your energy before you respond (and as a bonus, they prevent you from moving right into a reaction without a buffer).

I’m a big fan of the lyrics from Be Still by Beautiful Chorus which are:

• Be Still 
• Breathe
• Release
• Expand

Or, from the song Bodies by Drowning Pool:

• Let the bodies hit the floor

I like to have options  ;)

Thursday 6/16:

• ☉ at 25° 08‘ Gemini △ ♄ at 25° 08‘ Aquarius  | 3:13 am
• ☽ at 22° 06‘ Capricorn △ ♀︎ at 22° 06‘ Taurus | 5:08 am
• ☉ at 25° 24‘ Gemini □ ♆ at 25° 24‘ Pisces | 9:41 am
• ☽ at 25° 24‘ Capricorn ✳ ♆ at 25° 24‘ Pisces | 10:23 am
• ☽ ☌ ♇ at 28° 05‘ Capricorn | 2:41 pm
• ☽ ▻ Aquarius | 5:44 pm
• ☽ at 02° 58‘ Aquarius △ ☿ at 02° 58‘ Gemini | 10:29 pm

Continue with the grounded productivity on Thursday. There should be fewer temper flare-ups and tonight looks great for conversations or communication-related tasks such as writing emails, reports, or business plans.

Friday 6/17:

• ☽ at 06° 02‘ Aquarius ✳ ♃ at 06° 02‘ Aries | 3:27 am
• ☽ at 17° 10‘ Aquarius □ ♅ at 17° 10‘ Taurus | 9:36 pm
• ☽ at 17° 45‘ Aquarius ✳ ♂︎ at 17° 45‘ Aries | 10:35 pm

On Friday, you have the opportunity to finish the week with a productivity high but stay flexible so you can incorporate new information or accommodate scheduling changes.

Saturday 6/18:

• ☽ at 24° 43‘ Aquarius □ ♀︎ at 24° 43‘ Taurus | 10:09 am
• ☽ ☌ ♄ at 25° 06‘ Aquarius | 10:46 am
• ☽ at 27° 31‘ Aquarius △ ☉ at 27° 31‘ Gemini | 2:50 pm
• ♀︎ at 25° 05‘ Taurus □ ♄ at 25° 05‘ Aquarius | 5:31 pm
• ☽ ▻ Pisces | 7:01 pm

Remember how I said Monday that Mercury would be breaking free from the gravity of Taurus? Saturday he will clear his shadow and venture into new territory for one of those defying gravity moments. If you don’t know this about me already, I think in music and pictures and the soundtrack for this particular moment is Wicked’s Defying Gravity which you can watch below.

If you’re not a Virgo or Gemini (Sun or rising) or in a Mercury year, you may not feel this quite as strongly BUT it’s still the general vibe even if the volume is turned down a little. 

The thing about venturing off into new territory is that it’s scary and uncomfortable. Most people would rather keep old habits, routines, people, and beliefs that aren’t necessarily good for them rather than risk failing spectacularly by going after something that could be great. 

That’s the other part of today - a whole lot of astrology that is uncomfortable and difficult. You might be ready to charge ahead in one area of your life and feel held back by another or you might just have a lot of “this couldn’t work because gravity says so” kind of thoughts related to love. 

(We pause our regularly scheduled coaching for a quick astro nerd explanation: Venus in Taurus is squaring Saturn in Aquarius while Mercury in Gemini is charging ahead. Venus has to do with love and money, Saturn boundaries, and endurance. So, your love/money situation might be confronted with a need for endurance or stronger boundaries as it relates to your Taurus/Aquarius houses.) 

I get told pretty regularly that what I want is impractical or impossible or wtfever and while thoughts like that can slow me down occasionally I always come down on the side of I’d rather crash and burn than play by anyone else’s rules. I am a bit wicked, after all.

It’s ok if jumping without a net sounds terrifying, you don’t have to do it. BUT what if you just considered the possibility that you could defy gravity? What if you could fly? How might you make it work? What could it look like to try something completely different? What kind of structure could make the impossible more probable, to steal a phrase from a friend.

To sum up Saturday, I have one of my favorite quotes of all time.

“There is freedom waiting for you,

On the breezes of the sky,

And you ask "What if I fall?"

Oh but my darling,

What if you fly?”

― Erin Hanson

Sunday 6/19: 

• ♀︎ at 25° 25‘ Taurus ✳ ♆ at 25° 25‘ Pisces | 12:06 am
• ☽ at 05° 16‘ Pisces □ ☿ at 05° 16‘ Gemini | 4:00 am

Sunday is lovely, a little dreamy, and fantastic for teaching or learning something new.

If you’re feeling frisky, hit me up on Instagram and let me know how the astrology of the week played out for you.

Until next time, my wish for you is the unshakable belief that you can fly.
