Written in the Stars - Week of June 12



Mercury Opposite Saturn — Mercury, the ruler of thought and speech, has slowed to a stop and is now steadied by the planet of long-term growth and maturity, Saturn. An ideal time to create plans with precision — even delays and obstacles benefit our work. "Anything worth doing is worth doing well."

ARIES
March 21 — April 19

You've got grand plans, Aries, and it's time to stop worrying about when they'll work best and start working. Whether or not you think you're being noticed or recognized right now, there are many eyes on you. More importantly, many ears are perked in your direction as well, and it's time for you to make yourself heard. Actions speak louder than words, of course, and you're in your high cycle this week, meaning your always-energetic presence is even more bombastic than usual. Take the opportunity — take action. Your stars say things will unfold once you start.

TAURUS
April 20 — May 20

If your path is littered with the remains of old dreams, Taurus, you may lose sight of your true direction. It's all about "letting go" for you this week — your stars say there are a number of dead-end efforts that it's time to release — the better to move into your new life. Don't bemoan them as failures — recognize that your energy will be better spent elsewhere. So, if certain setups or seemingly ironclad plans dissolve, bid them farewell, because great new expansions are forecast, especially around your home and family. Welcome a new phase — it's looking great!

GEMINI
May 21 — June 21

Don't be surprised when you get some major notice this week, Gemini, particularly for a sudden insight or solution that you come up with that solves a key problem or leads the way to a major breakthrough. Fortuitous connections and messages are forecast, with pretty Venus rubbing elbows with jovial Jupiter in your House of Communications. All the right people will hear you, as long as you're willing to speak up and show what you've got. Inheritances or windfalls are forecast, via a loved one or partner who shares their wealth. You've earned it.

CANCER
June 22 — July 22

There are times, Cancer, when all you have to do is sit back and watch — and let people figure things out for themselves. Your stars say that when it comes to certain projects and ideas, you haven't gotten the support or follow through you'd hoped for. You could martyr yourself certainly and take on all the responsibility — but you'd be doing yourself and others a disservice. Your stars have some very lucky magic in store for you, with charming Venus and jovial Jupiter dancing in your House of Wealth. Put yourself and your work first — everything will fall into place.

LEO
July 23 — Aug. 22

You're always noticed, Leo — your charisma and panache turns heads. This week is no different — your charm and "big" personality are only enhanced by the pretty party going on in between Venus and Jupiter in your House of Self. It's time to be big and bold, and show the world what only you are capable of creating. At the same time as you're expanding, Saturn is roosting in your House of Home, asking you to "take care of business," and strengthen your foundation to prepare for takeoff. Massive transformations of your daily life are forecast. Get ready.

VIRGO
Aug. 23 — Sept. 22

It's time to "get serious" about communicating, Virgo. Saturn, the planet of long-term growth and maturity, has moved into your House of Communication, indicating that you need to trim a little fat from your little black book (or little black iPhone, Android, etc.) So, if some connections seem to dissipate, take it as a sign from the Universe — they're making room for some more weighty exchanges, those that help you grow and hone your skills. How long has it been since you "made the effort" to play? Your stars say a little fun will be transformative. "Work" on it.

LIBRA
Sept. 23 — Oct. 22

You can't build your foundation on an ocean, Libra — but you could adjust your plans and build a boat. Pluto is dynamiting old structures in your House of Home and Family, making it pretty much impossible to find a steady stance — but you can find a rhythm. The Universe is purposefully keeping you on your toes — the better for you to pick up on some clues, potentials and hidden information that you might miss if you were a bit more comfortable. Are you pondering a trip, or a move? Your stars say the thought of "new horizons" motivates you. Be aware; go with the flow.

SCORPIO
Oct. 23 — Nov. 21

You may be feeling isolated this week, Scorpio, and you could be the only one who doesn't mind. Saturn, the planet of long-term lessons, maturity and growth, has moved into your House of Self, forcing you to examine your current circumstances and decide whether or not they're making you happy, or driving you toward a life you're excited about. Despite any inner turmoil, others see you as strong, passionate and dedicated — someone able to see things through. Creating a new game plan benefits you now — one that suits your new goals. You've got this.

SAGITTARIUS
Nov. 22 — Dec. 21

Your load is lightening, Sagittarius; your stars are releasing you from certain bonds and restrictions because you have so much further to go. Saturn, the planet of restrictions, maturity and "growing up" has moved out of your House of Self, and into your House of Secrets and the Past. Some old pleasures or connections that once gave you joy may seem hollow now — it's time to release them, because the Universe has some grand new adventures planned for you. New partners and lovers are forecast to breeze in from far away — or are you traveling to them?

CAPRICORN
Dec. 22 — Jan. 19

What do you do when the lights go out, Capricorn? Some people waste time and energy rushing, hitting walls, and searching desperately for a light source. I'd counsel you to wait out this astrological "blackout," accepting that some temporary darkness will give you two things: the confidence to know you can outlast it and the realization that your personal "outage" won't even last long. This is an opportunity to see how all the stimuli in your life has short-circuited your circumstances — focus on eliminating what drains you and enhancing what lights you up.

AQUARIUS
Jan. 20 — Feb. 18

What are you resisting, Aquarius? And why are you resisting it? Saturn, the planet of long-term growth and maturity, has moved backward into your House of Career and Destiny, bringing to light how far you've come, as well as the ways that you've "fallen short" of your own expectations. Your stars say that there are aspects of your life that require your attention and compassion in order for you to move forward. Creative projects and joy are forecast the minute you decide to "get clear" about the sorts of resources and lifestyle you want. Revamp your budget.

PISCES
Feb. 19 — March 20

You're known for being the most selfless member of the zodiac, Pisces, always giving of yourself to help others meet their potential. There is, however, a darker side to that penchant — it can come at the expense of your own rise or recognition and resentment can breed in that darkness. This week, it's essential that you blaze your own trail, take care of your own business and accept accolades that belong to you — without any addendums or false (or real!) modesty. Great strides are forecast, but you must accept and revere your own power. You deserve this.
