A happy, family-oriented mood permeates the atmosphere this month—a welcome change, considering the stressful energy that was present up until June 2015. This is definitely a time for de-stressing and enjoying the company of loved ones. In terms of opportunities to learn and grow, Saturn should provide those. Last month, on the 14th, it retrograded back into Scorpio, where it will be until it enters Sagittarius on September 17. During the next few months, we’ll have the chance to address any unfinished business that was left over from October 2012 to December 2014, which was the last time Saturn was in Scorpio. In our personal lives, issues will involve refining the ways we interact in our close partnerships, where we combine deeply with others for a purpose that empowers both (like child raising, a joint effort). This could be a business or sexual relationship or a close friendship. Issues involving

Moon Wobbles stir up emotional energy in the atmosphere. Because July's Moon Wobble occurs in the sign of CANCER squaring the Nodal Axis, it is likely that a final display of moody emotionalism may emerge - either on your part or the part of another. You may become overly needy, insecure or childish. The temptation will be to take action based on impulsiveness, selfishness, or an over-concern with survival. This action may seem like a good idea at the time, but upon reflection, may clearly prove to be detrimental in the long run. Better to wait until this time of emotional intensity has passed – after July 4th - and then reconsider your plan. If it still seems viable, move with it. During this Moon Wobble, you may feel frustration when trying to achieve a sense of emotional security for yourself and loved ones. Things may not be moving as

June 21, 12:38 P.M. EDST Timing is everything. By taking advantage of opportunities when the larger timing is right, you achieve a success. For example, when the tide is out in the ocean, it’s not a propitious time for the sport of surfing. The rules we see everyday in mother nature are self evident, and by cooperating with that larger timing, we can fit into the reality of “what is” and use it to our advantage. By using the principles of natural timing, we cooperate with life and know when to pull back and when to press forward for success. The times of moving forward can be used for initiating new directions that are important for us. The times for pulling back can be used for reinforcing our position, organizing our lives and growing stronger within ourselves. The times of balance open the opportunity for consciously enjoying our lives and

Don’t miss this opportunity to make wishes for goals you’d like to reach and experiences you’d like to have.

If your birthday is in JUNE, the year 2015 is holding an underlying theme of hunger for new adventure!  There is a desire for variety this year and for learning in new areas that lead to personal growth. An urge for movement has been stirred in 2015 and for learning a little about a lot of different areas.  Don’t be surprised if it’s more difficult than usual to “stay with” one thing when it becomes boring for you! You are yearning for freedom and change this year and this urge may well bring you into connecting with new people and experiences that you previously hadn’t taken the time to explore. Throughout the year of 2015, people born in JUNE are learning the value of freedom to gain new information that will lead to progress and wise decision making in the future. Although this theme is operative in the background for

Mercury is officially ending its Retrograde cycle at 5:34 pm, Eastern Standard Time on Thursday, June 11.  Thank heavens-- this has been a tough cycle  (5/19-6/11)!  Because Mercury is traveling in the sign of Gemini, we have been deeply reevaluating the messages others are giving us and how we communicate with them.  We may have been 'second guessing' ourselves - and others - as a way of seeing where everyone stands.  This has led to a greater clarity about our ability to impact situations with our attitudes and words.  Going forward, we will begin to gain a greater awareness of directions in which we want our relationships to go and more confidence in adopting a positive attitude that will take both us and the other person to the mutually desired aim.

The SUMMER SOLSTICE is that point that occurs exactly when the Earth's semi-axis in a given hemisphere is most inclined towards the Sun.  It ushers in the predominance of the energies of the second three signs of the zodiac:  Cancer, Leo and Virgo. These signs dive into an intense participation in life—the enjoyment of feeling involved in close relationships with others.  Cancer seeks the experience of the nurturing and deep love and support possible with family members.  Leo encourages us to follow our hearts and share relationships with those who trigger our feelings of love.  Virgo encourages us to do things to help those we love have an easier, happier life. The following three months are well-suited to spending time with those you feel personally close to.  It is a period for enjoying the special relationships in your life as well as allotting time for recreational activities that are pleasurable

by Jan Spiller One of the gifts of learning astrology is gaining the objectivity to take the events of life less personally.   Several years ago, I had followed my original spiritual teacher to his new teaching location in Puerto Rico. At that time, a primary goal for me was to “pop over” into the state of Enlightenment.    As I took that goal very seriously, I spent at least a third of my time in Ashrams and other places that encouraged intense spiritual unfoldment. Thus, for me to disrupt my life and move to Puerto Rico for six months to study with this teacher was simply “part of the path.”   One morning I awakened in the tiny condo I was renting and I felt very angry. I kept trying to “brush off” the mood, fill my mind with positive thoughts and go about my business:  peeling the wonderful fresh fruit of
