[Fate & Free Will ]

Astrology for the Week of June 27 - July 3

Before we get started, I want you to know that I am a fate and free will coach and I have openings in July for 1-1 astrological consultations. I blend traditional astrology and thought work to help you embrace your fate and leverage your free will in creating a life and business you love. You can learn more here.

The world is never one thing. It’s never all good or all bad and there has never been a moment when all of humanity has even agreed on the definitions of good and bad. The astrological vibe of any given moment reflects that. 

There are opportunities for truly magical, healing, and expansive new beginnings this week but the truth is humans rarely move towards that energy when the chaos, destruction, and fear are so much more captivating.

In astro speak, there is a Cancer New Moon that has the blessing of a Jupiter being supported by Venus happening early in the week but there is also a Mars Pluto square building. 

There’s a reason I’m a fate *and* free will coach. Fate is simply the circumstances of our life (which can be reassuringly seen with astrology) and our free will is how we actively choose to engage with and think about those circumstances.

We all have this one beautiful life, the one moment we are in at any given moment, to manage our thoughts and experience as we choose. That doesn’t mean choose to be happy all the time. You can choose outrage, compassion, sorrow, courage, love, fear, or hate. You can choose to rotate through them as you process or you can choose to not make a choice and to be on the wild ride of an unmanaged mind before you process. 

To be honest, I don’t care what you choose. I don’t have a dog in that race, as my father would’ve said. 

What I do care about, what I hope and wish and work towards in as many ways as I can find, is that you make the choice to think and feel whatever it is you want consciously, intentionally, and with reasons you love.

That last bit, reasons you love, is important. Reasons and beliefs are just thoughts we continue to think habitually - whether intentionally or unintentionally. A lot of people intentionally create their experience of the world but their reasons are based on the expectations of others rather than on authentic desire and leave them feeling resentful. 

That doesn’t mean never make choices based on someone else’s expectations, it just means do it intentionally for a reason you love. That way your experience isn’t one of resentment, it’s one of joyful service. Reasons matter.

That can be difficult for me because I have a human brain that has tantrums like a toddler on a semi-regular basis. That leads to thoughts and actions based on reasons I don’t love because it’s from a completely unconscious space. But eventually, I stop raging and choose intentionally and happily, the gap between tantrum mode being activated and choosing my thoughts intentionally has decreased significantly the more I work on accepting both the neutral circumstances of fate and the liberating responsibility of exercising my free will. 

Alrighty. On with the astrological show.

Monday 6/27: 

• ☽ ☌ ☿ at 15° 56‘ Gemini | 3:21 am
• ♂︎ at 24° 49‘ Aries ✳ ♄ at 24° 49‘ Aquarius | 6:28 pm
• ☽ at 24° 49‘ Gemini △ ♄ at 24° 49‘ Aquarius | 9:23 pm
• ☽ at 24° 55‘ Gemini ✳ ♂︎ at 24° 55‘ Aries | 9:34 pm
• ☽ at 25° 26‘ Gemini □ ♆ at 25° 26‘ Pisces | 10:38 pm

The plan for Monday is disciplined action that builds a foundation for enduring action as you move forward. Acting intentionally instead of reacting. Today is not talking and thinking, it’s doing. 

A quick fix or instant action can be gratifying because when you’re done, you can stop thinking about it. It’s a temporary high. The real work is taking action consistently even when you don’t want to. 

You have goals and dreams and plans that require follow-through, do the things.

Tuesday 6/28:

• ♆ ▻ ℞ at 25° 26‘ Pisces | 3:54 am
• ♆ ▻ Direct at 22° 38‘ Pisces on December 3, 2022
• ☽ ▻ Cancer | 7:53 am
• ☉ at 07° 18‘ Cancer □ ♃ at 07° 18‘ Aries | 8:59 pm
• ☽ at 07° 18‘ Cancer □ ♃ at 07° 18‘ Aries | 10:43 pm
• Cancer 🌑 New Moon | 10:52 pm
• ♀︎ at 07° 18‘ Gemini ✳ ♃ at 07° 18‘ Aries | 11:51 pm

Tuesday is magical. Last week I talked bout the Cancer Solstice and what this area of life was for you, don’t worry I’ll break it down again so you don’t have to go back and listen. 

Today marks a brand new beginning in this area - and it is expansive and hopeful and really one of the best opportunities to begin something for the entire year. 

But that doesn’t mean start the thing today. You have two weeks.  Today is about finding the clarity for that new beginning or even setting the intention to find clarity over the next two weeks. 

Prior to the new moon, which goes exact at 10:52 pm eastern, you may want to let go of anything that could be holding you back from making that leap forward.

By rising sign, the area of life the New Moon is offering you an opportunity for an intentional new beginning are:

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

Wednesday 6/29:

• ☽ at 17° 42‘ Cancer ✳ ♅ at 17° 42‘ Taurus | 7:48 pm

Wednesday is astrologically pretty calm but stay open to inspiration and remain flexible. It’s a great day to continue thinking about your new beginning and cultivating an action plan or taking action on plans you already have in place. 

Thursday 6/30:

• ☽ at 25° 26‘ Cancer △ ♆ at 25° 26‘ Pisces | 11:27 am
• ☽ at 26° 50‘ Cancer □ ♂︎ at 26° 50‘ Aries | 2:16 pm
• ☽ at 27° 48‘ Cancer ☍ ♇ Capricorn | 4:13 pm
• ☽ ▻ Leo | 8:39 pm

Thursday starts dreamy but becomes more contentious later in the afternoon. It’s possible your dreams and those of the people around you might create some conflict. 

When the Moon moves into Leo at 8:39 pm, the tone becomes much more lighthearted.

Friday 7/1:

• ☽ at 07° 32‘ Leo △ ♃ at 07° 32‘ Aries | 11:49 am
• ☽ at 10° 36‘ Leo ✳ ♀︎ at 10° 36‘ Gemini | 5:58 pm
• ♂︎ at 27° 46‘ Aries □ ♇ at 27° 46‘ Capricorn | 10:13 pm

Friday is…. Interesting.

There is an air of hopeful expectation that is in direct opposition to a Mars Pluto square that wants to burn everything to the ground. Mars is war and aggression and Pluto is transformation - the Tower Card. This is an aspect for revolution on a macro and micro level. It may show up for you in the Aries and Capricorn areas of your chart or you may notice it more in the environment around you.

To be fair, this aspect is building all week and could easily distract you and everyone else from their new beginning from the New Moon. I’d encourage you not to let this happen. 

I know there are a lot of strong feelings going on for everyone in response to the circumstances of last week - and really, the past several weeks/months/years. 

This is all tied more directly into the Pluto Return of the United States which we are collectively experiencing - regardless of where on Earth we call home - and what’s going on in our personal lives. Like it or not, what the US does affects the entire world in some way and this Pluto Return is likely to herald a massive revolutionary change in the very structure of the nation. This isn’t objectively good or bad but it is subjectively all of the things and as humans, it is our subjective experience of our lives that matters. 

The world is going to change. That’s just the circumstance of fate. We get to decide how we experience that change, how we respond, and how we shape it. 

I spent several days leaning into the ridiculously strong Mars and Pluto placements of my chart - that’s a dark and dangerous place to live. 

I’ll intentionally be choosing to lean into the placements of my Cancer 10th house, managing my mind, and finding a productive path forward for the rage beyond screaming into the void. 

And really, that’s the best advice I can offer for the day. 

Saturday 7/2:

• ☿ at 24° 39‘ Gemini △ ♄ at 24° 39‘ Aquarius | 6:38 am
• ☽ at 17° 48‘ Leo □ ♅ at 17° 48‘ Taurus | 8:21 am
• ☿ at 25° 26‘ Gemini □ ♆ at 25° 26‘ Pisces | 4:52 pm
• ☽ at 24° 37‘ Leo ☍ ♄ 24° 37‘  Aquarius | 9:54 pm

It might be more difficult than usual to focus on Saturday. If you find yourself daydreaming, pay attention to where your mind drifts and whether or not the thoughts serve to inspire you to move towards the future you want or whether they keep you stuck. 

Sunday 7/3: 

• ☽ at 26° 02‘ Leo ✳ ☿ at 26° 02‘ Gemini | 12:42 am
• ☽ at 28° 42‘ Leo △ ♂︎ at 28° 42‘ Aries | 5:58 am
• ☽ ▻ Virgo | 8:31 am

Sunday the Moon moves into Virgo early in the morning allowing for a calmer,  more grounded productivity than we’ve had access to all week. Use it to set yourself up for the coming week. It’s going to be intense. 

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 an intentional life created from thoughts you love.
