Fasten your seatbelts, cosmic voyagers—this week is sure to be a spellbinding saga of celestial ballet! Here’s your weekly horoscope.

I. Mars squares Uranus:

As the weekend fades and the early hours of Monday, June 26th arrive, prepare for a cosmic shift that will colour the whole week, from June 25th right through June 30th. The key players of this celestial drama are the hot-headed Mars, residing in the vivacious sign of Leo, and the unpredictable Uranus, firmly positioned in practical Taurus. When these two planets square off, it’s a bit like mixing fire and dynamite.

During this period, attractions may be stronger than ever, perhaps unbearably so. Yet, a word of caution: resist the urge to dive headfirst into relationships or romantic encounters without considering the potential aftermath. The thrill of the moment or the enticing prospect of revenge dating might seem like good ideas, but they can lead to consequences best avoided.

In this tempestuous atmosphere, the distinction between attraction and antagonism may blur, and you may find yourself unexpectedly drawn to a person you’d typically consider off-limits. It could be that captivating yet bothersome coworker who seems to push all your buttons.

Though you might feel inclined to engage in confrontations or discussions aiming for resolution, it would be wiser to delay those intentions. The current astrological climate is prone to stubborn deadlock and volatile emotional outbursts rather than lending itself to a climate of understanding and diplomatic communication. Best to hold off until the celestial tides are more favourable. This is a week to exercise patience, discernment, and restraint.

This square will be most challenging for Taurus, Scorpio, Leo, and Aquarius.

II. Mercury enters Cancer, conjoins the Sun, & sextiles Jupiter:

The call to fortify your privacy and confidentiality measures rings loud and clear as we transition into the week starting Tuesday, June 27th. Mercury, the planet associated with communication and intellectual exchange, discreetly moves into the sensitive sign of Cancer, promoting deep, heartfelt connections within your closest circles.

This transit, lasting until July 11, sets the stage for emotionally charged dialogues and disclosures. These are not the conversations to broadcast to the public but are to be shared with trusted confidants, emphasizing the necessity of ensuring your circle is comprised of truly trustworthy individuals.

Simultaneously, this period fosters conditions ideal for small, cosy gatherings. Thus, it would be prudent to prepare your space to facilitate conversation and camaraderie. Ensure you have the means to provide for spontaneous social events, be it a sudden barbecue or a last-minute charcuterie spread, as you might find yourself playing host to an impromptu game night or invited to a potluck picnic with barely a moment’s notice.

The focus shifts on July 1st as the Cancer Sun conjoins Mercury (Cazimi), signalling heightened mental agility and enhanced communication skills. This period, extending a couple of days before and after the conjunction, is a prime time for gaining clarity on one’s direction and purpose. It is a favourable environment for conducting business deals, negotiations, and any form of communication, be it writing, speaking, or otherwise. It also provides an opportune moment to make a positive impression or to communicate effectively with those in superior positions.

As we navigate the same day, the celestial orchestra is graced by the harmony of a sextile between Mercury and the Sun, both currently in Cancer and Jupiter, residing in the steadfast sign of Taurus. This favourable aspect creates a symphony of optimism and a sharpened focus on long-term goals and ventures.

The sextile serves as a cosmic key, unlocking a gate to an expanded knowledge base and a broader perspective on life, thus creating favourable conditions for education, legal proceedings, and international affairs. It fosters an environment that promotes fruitful collaborations, making it a particularly good time for outdoor activities, business pursuits, and travel adventures.

Simultaneously, this planetary aspect, which extends over a couple of days, also amplifies personal influence and authority, infusing individuals with a stronger sense of integrity.
In essence, the Sun and Mercury in Cancer, sextiling Jupiter in Taurus, serves as a beacon, spotlighting opportunities in diverse fields such as legal and foreign affairs, teaching, and publishing, and generally heralding a period that is rife with fortunate possibilities.

The sextiles will be most beneficial for Cancer, Taurus, Capricorn, and Virgo.

III. Neptune stations retrograde:

Get your favourite meditation app at the ready and dust off your long-neglected dream journal—it’s time to dive into the deeper realms of your subconscious. This Friday, June 30th, marks the onset of Neptune’s annual retrograde cycle, an astronomical event that signals a time for introspection and self-reflection.

Neptune, the planet often associated with dreams, illusions, and spirituality, navigates through Pisces until March 2025. Its retrograde phase, extending until December 6th, signals a time to indulge in introspection, encouraging a thoughtful exploration of their inner world. This celestial backspin is akin to a dense fog slowly lifting, unveiling hidden truths and helping to clarify situations that may have seemed stuck or unsolvable.

During this phase, you might find your muse beckoning, whispering ideas for unfinished creative projects or offering insights to heal emotional wounds layer by layer. A unique opportunity presents itself for a deep dive into the wellspring of creativity and emotional understanding, facilitated by your receptiveness and open mind.

However, be warned. While this level of open-mindedness and receptivity may serve as a catalyst for self-discovery, it can also leave you vulnerable to absorbing negative energies and drawing in individuals with less-than-honourable intentions. It’s imperative during this time to bolster your defences against such ‘energy vampires’. This protection can take various forms, from establishing firm personal boundaries to spiritual and therapeutic practices.

In essence, Neptune’s retrograde phase ushers in a period of self-reflection and introspection, a time for personal growth and understanding, but also a time that necessitates the fortification of personal defences to maintain emotional and energetic balance.

IV. Venus squares Uranus:

As we step into July, a dramatic celestial event looms – Uranus, the planet of rebellion, is squaring off against Venus, the symbol of love and beauty. While the exact square occurs on July 2nd, its influence permeates the period from June 29th to July 5th, fostering a complex emotional climate.

During this time, a sudden and intense yearning for personal freedom might emerge, particularly for those ensnared in the dynamics of romantic partnerships. This cosmic clash can prompt dialogues about the delicate balance between individual autonomy and the compromises inherent in relationships.

If you find yourself feeling suffocated, it’s advisable to seek a temporary period of solitude, rather than resorting to drastic actions which may trigger regret later. The undercurrent of suppressed emotions could also swell to the surface, leading to unexpected emotional shifts, the crumbling of emotional walls, and an unpredictable urge for personal transformation or impulse spending.

However, this planetary square also has a shadow side. It can bring about heightened nervousness, an inability to regulate emotions, and a sense of being caught off guard by sudden changes. Relationship conflicts may intensify, coupled with feelings of miscommunication or misunderstanding. Amid the whirlwind of changes, you might struggle to find a sense of comfort and relaxation.

The behaviour of women in your life might seem unusually perplexing or surprising during this period. Even your financial stability could be challenged, as unexpected losses can occur under this aspect. Therefore, amidst the turbulence of Venus squaring Uranus, prioritising authentic expression and open communication can help maintain balance and navigate through these tumultuous tides.

This square will be most challenging for Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius.
