June 28 To July 4, 2021 Astrology Forecast — Prepare For Tensions This Week
Monday 28th June 2021
A powerful connection between Saturn, Mars, and Uranus will be the dominant cosmic force this week. This tense energy will bring continuous conflict and lessons concerning strength, and endurance. Coping during financially turbulent times could become more difficult as the universe challenges you to develop courage, assertion, and control. Prepare to experience fears of change and newness. Bring an awareness to where you are exerting or perhaps wasting your energy.
Relieve the stress of this t-square through Martian/Plutonian activities. Look at associations of the house on the cusp of Scorpio in your chart. Seek support through financial advice, counseling, and therapy. Consider investments, accept loans from trusted sources, and practice thinking a few steps ahead. Try not to allow your emotional awareness of darker subjects (debt, suffering, death, danger) to overwhelm you; like all things, these difficulties and transits are temporary. Rely on your intuition and break through the restraints of fear and paranoia.
Tuesday 29th June 2021
The hyper-sensitive, psychic, and intuitive energies will soar on Tuesday. The Moon transiting Pisces in conjunction with Jupiter Rx (retrograde) will trine the Sun in Cancer. This is a monthly aspect that occurs during the waning phase of the Lunar Cycle. The Moon-Jupiter conjunction and Sun-Moon trine across the water element exude a flowing ease to matters concerning vulnerability, creative expression, complacency, reflection, and acceptance. The two houses in your unique chart on the cusp of Pisces and Cancer will unite. This will bring stability and a restoration of peace across this axis. Decision-making should be done with a clear and honest vision of the future in mind. Any problems that arise should be addressed intuitively; meditation, journalling, and conversing with spirit will bring you the guidance and answers that you seek.
Asteroid Chiron transiting Aries will trine Mars in Leo on Tuesday. This will bring a wave of motivation to overcome any self-esteem and confidence issues. Chiron, nicknamed the Wounded Healer, symbolizes karmic wounds concerning self-worth, self-image, and self-doubt when transiting Aries. However, when trine Mars in Leo, we're filled with a warm and passionate spark to recognise our full potential. Past traumas may have less of a grip on you today. This could create a new path forward for you to step out of your comfort zone. Make yourself proud today by doing one thing you have feared up until this point. Take the lead, have fun, and do something pleasurable without fear of what others will think. Take pride in your work and who you are. Keep up a positive approach and don't fear winning or simply being a part of the race.
Wednesday 30th June 2021
On Wednesday, the Moon will conjunct Neptune Rx in Pisces in a loose square with Mercury in Gemini. This energy will bring an emotional depth which could suffocate if we get lost in the Piscean energy. The Moon (changing emotions) conjunct Neptune Rx (spiritual introspection, removal of fantasy) squaring Mercury in Gemini (changing thoughts and opinions) could leave us feeling confused about who we are. The over-reliance on intuition today could influence you to create signs where there aren't any. Escapism and erasure of truth and reality could bring us comfort in the present moment. This, however, will be at the expense of our future and our mental, emotional, and spiritual growth.
Venus in Leo will sextile Jupiter Rx in Pisces which could be an incredibly lucky transit. This relates to curated luck and divine opportunities. Jupiter in retrograde calls for us to develop a thorough and honest understanding of our personal development. It's here that we assess how far along we are on our journey to embodying our highest self. Once this is obtained, our charisma and honesty will attract popularity, love, open hearts, and warm welcomes. A closer connection to our spirituality and confidence in our faith could manifest under this energy. Being able to admit to others that you aren't where you'd like to be, but are working on healing and becoming the best version of yourself will be met with respect and acceptance.
Retrograding Saturn in Aquarius will trine the North Node (within 2°, applying) this Wednesday. As the North Node and Saturn are both transiting backward, this is an aspect that will grow in strength until late September. Saturn Rx trine the North Node supports our growth through maturity, self-reliance, and patience. It's up to you to use your wisdom and life experience to meet the new obstacles headed your way. Expect karmic lessons in resisting ego-fuelled desires to be right. Practice walking away from arguments to protect your inner peace.
Thursday 1st July 2021
With the Moon in Aries trining Venus in Leo, Thursday will be the perfect day for fierce expressions of love— whether that's directed towards lovers, friends, or yourself! Aries and Leo are both passionate fire signs that express love through attention, affection, and fighting for the people they care about. This energy creates a natural ability to attract attention and sparks a protective, reactivity within us. Forming deep, intimate, and romantic connections will be done with greater ease on this day. It's the perfect energy for leisure, displays of love, and spoiling others (or yourself).
The Sun in Cancer will form a sextile with Saturn Rx on Thursday (within 3° applying). This aspect will increase in strength and become exact on Sunday 4th July. Sun sextile Saturn Rx exudes dominant, masculine energy which will manifest as the earning of respect, recognition, and power that may have been long awaited. These changes will be karmic rewards for honoring ourselves, standing by our work/ideas/beliefs, and setting healthy boundaries. The energy of Chiron in Aries loosely squaring the Sun alongside this transit carries warnings of the inflation of personal importance, and power. Take time to celebrate and reward yourself after a period of hard work and overcoming challenges, but do so without attaching yourself to your achievements. Know that you are worthy and special simply because you are you— not because of any external factors.
Friday 2nd July 2021
The t-square between Saturn, Mars, and Uranus that appeared earlier in the week will form a closer alignment on Friday. Mars and Saturn's opposition will be in exact alignment on the 12° axis of Aquarius and Leo. 12° carries Neptunian energy which could influence us to get carried away in our interpretation of reality. An opposition between these planets creates a tug-of-war-like tension between authority vs. unhealthy domination, leadership vs. competition, and responsibility vs. passion. Getting carried away in the conflict of these energies could lead us to wrongfully dominate others or allow other people to over-step and dominate us. To avoid conflict and unhealthy competitiveness, a separation from egocentric desires is necessary.
Take note of when and where you are being led by pride and stubbornness. Are you resistant to change as a means of staying in control? Or are you internalizing other people's fears of newness as a way to maintain a sense of belonging? Are you over-concerned with the role you play and the position that you occupy in other people's lives? Are you fearful that your value is being forgotten by others? How is this fear manifesting in your behavior?
Saturday 3rd July 2021
On Saturday 3rd July, Pluto in Capricorn will trine Neptune in Pisces (within 2°) with both of these transiting planets in retrograde. Pluto and Neptune are both generational planets, meaning they have a greater effect on us as a collective rather than as individuals. This is an incredibly healing and unifying transit as we take another step toward transcending our current state of consciousness. This will be triggered by the realization that we have greater control over our realities than we thought. Neptune's retrograde fuels spiritual growth and influences more people to commit to a journey of healing and awakening. A powerful change in perspective could be underway which will encourage us to confront deceptions and flaws within ourselves and in our society.
Allow your interests, ideas, and beliefs to naturally shift and renew. Try to avoid unhealthy manifestations of escapism during the discomfort and confusion of spiritual awakenings. Seek solace and reassurance in the reminder that your generation is experiencing the same feelings as you are. Embrace the sensitivity of changing faith— it is a beautiful aspect of being alive rather than something to be feared.
Sunday 4th July 2021
Brace yourself for the astrology of Sunday! The Moon transiting Taurus will conjunct Uranus, doubling the energy of this week's t-square and adding an emotional, personal, and vulnerable depth to it. The Moon is exalted (in a powerful position) in Taurus as she's able to connect to her deepest, sensory needs here. However, when conjunct Uranus, her dedicated and fixed nature is challenged by erratic shifts on the physical (external) plane. Limitations enforced by authoritative figures (such as your parent/s) could trigger dramatic, unhealed, and emotional responses within us.
Throughout the later hours of Sunday, the Moon in Taurus will separate from the t-square and trine Pluto Rx in Capricorn. This transit could push us to purge and release any attachments and obsessions to people, things, and ideas that we carry with us. We're called here to assess where we have been stalling our own mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual growth out of fear and resistance to change. Under the Plutonian energy, we may find a liberating release of our inner intensity. Expect truths to emerge from the shadows, motivations to be revealed, and a heightened, intuitive perception. A clear, psychological understanding of why we (emotionally) respond in the way that we do could offer a lot of insight into the depths of our subconscious and the impact that our early childhood years have had on our development.
