In contrast to the vibrant colors of May, the energy of the beginning of June shines with the color of the sun’s afterglow as it sinks below the horizon; painted the deep purple and the warm orange of twilight. As spring gradually fades into summer, we see a number of planets moving through the sign of Cancer; they gently envelop the world in a sense of stillness and show us the “starry skies” as we fade to night. As we move into the latter half of the month, we see both Neptune and Mars move into retrograde, sending the energy of these planets into a current we are not always used to. Mars urges us to take action, to move forward and to sprint towards what we want – but onward from the 27th, we see its abundant vitality begins to cool down. It becomes easier to run out of breath or to tire ourselves. As a result, it may be wise to reduce your pace a little – to jog, not to run at a full sprint. In addition, we see Neptune, representing dreams and things not of reality, telling us instead to pay attention to the reality in front of us. June has energy like the gradually setting sun; it tells us to spend our first half of the month actively and wisely while moving towards saving our energy for “tomorrow” as we move towards the end. In moving from dusk to night, we see the beautiful light of stars begin to twinkle. In turning your eyes to these simple transitions around you, the beauty latent in the everyday begins to sparkle more brightly. For this June, PhotoAstrology brings you forecasts and guidance for this month for each of the 12 signs – as well as images specially selected to aptly reflect the energy surrounding each sign.
