As June opens, rest and privacy will be an alluring option. With four friendly planets in your twelfth house area of creative thinking and planning, you'd do best to take a break from the pressures of everyday life and muse about a better future.
Making more money seems to be a top priority, but with Mars opposed to Neptune, linking two financial houses, you seem not to know just how to go about earning the additional cash you need. Do a little noodling this month, dear Cancer - it appears you CAN find a way.
Ever since Mars entered your second house last month your expenses have increased noticeably. You certainly seem motivated to find new sources of income. Don't scoff at being motivated - it often is the necessary ingredient to success. With Mars moving through this financial area of your chart in fine angle to Venus, the Sun, new moon, and Mercury until June 30, you will be able to uncover a way of improving your cash flow.
If you want a new job that earns you more money, it may interest you to know Mars also rules your solar tenth house of career and status. To overcome the opposition to Neptune, the more specific you are about the job you want, the easier it will be for you to find your prized new position. We all know people we've met who say they want to find a better job, but when asked what that job might be, they get a far-away look in their eyes. The follow-up question is, "Well then, what kind of work are you doing now?" Invariably they reply, "Oh, lots of things." Alas, it becomes clear why these unfocused souls can't easily find work. Applicants who are very clear and certain about what they are seeking are the ones who find their prize job.
During the first three weeks, Mercury will be retrograde, so if you accept a job or start a new venture anytime from June 1-23, it won't likely work out as planned. (Mercury technically turns direct on June 19, but will take a few days to normalize its orbit, so I say, start to resume your initiatives on June 23.)
The only exception to this rule is if the person offering you the position is someone you know from the past and would like to work with again. In that case, Mercury retrograde would not interfere with your success because you would be looking to the past to forge your future - a good approach when Mercury is out of phase. So as you see, working with old friends, colleagues, clients, or employers you know would be a good idea, but working on a new job with new individuals is not.
Don't sign contracts until you reach the end of the month. Your two very best days will be June 23 or 24, for at that time Mercury will be orbiting in direct speed and Saturn will be in superb angle to the Sun.
It would not be wise to spend large amounts of money in June either, especially not for machines / electronics, as Mercury rules moving parts. You always will need a solidly strong Mercury behind you when spending large amounts. When this planet is out of phase, it signals that a powerful change of direction is underway, and while things are in flux, it will be impossible to see where things are heading. We become forgetful, too, and we often leave a necessary item at home - or a cell phone behind in a taxi.
What CAN you do successfully while Mercury is retrograde? During the first three weeks of June, tackle your pile of work on your desk that you've been meaning to do. New projects will be heading your way soon, so you won't want to be weighed down by these old obligations.
Mercury retrograde happens four times a year for three-and-a-half week periods and allows us time to attend to these types of tasks. (This particular phase began last month, on May 26.) Mercury rules the mind and intellect, so when it retrogrades, we go back to rethink, re-design, reconnect, and readdress old topics, projects, and relationships. You may even rediscover an old, lost, beloved item, or find a wonderful clue to unlock an old mystery.
On June 3, the new moon will appear in your house of your subconscious mind, which will stimulate your creativity on a large scale. If you have any writing, editing, or research assignments to get done, you will be unusually productive while working in solitude. Venus will be close to the moon too, so you'll likely relish what you do.
This same new moon, operative for two weeks, will give you the perfect window to talk to a friend or professional about a fear or dilemma that has troubled you. This problem may go back in time, but nevertheless needs to come to the surface - let it, if that is what you sense. Letting go will mean that you won't have to carry this matter with you anymore. The steps you take just after June 3 will color your entire year ahead in a positive way, so if you are interested in giving up a bad habit or finding insight into a matter that has troubled you, find the right person to air that matter with in early June.
The full moon on June 18 could bring a work endeavor to a close, but at the same time, it could bring you a conflict with a co-worker or underling. Pluto will be orbiting very close to this full moon, so a very strong personality may make your life a bit difficult near this full moon. Try to keep your schedule light then - you don't need extra things to think about at that time. Keep your health strong too, as during this time of the month, you may feel very drained.
Keep in mind that when Mercury is about to turn direct (as will be the case June 19), the likelihood for miscommunication increases, for Mercury is always a wild child at the start and finish of the retrograde (not that he is exactly an angel during the retrograde, either!) Add a full moon conjunct Pluto at the same time he is turning direct, and you have a recipe for a tense situation. As you get closer to the full moon, emphasize facts and try to remain as unemotional and dispassionate as possible. Do your best, dear Cancer - I realize that this will be easier said than done.
Once the Sun moves into Cancer on June 20, your energy will surge forward, and increasingly you'll come into your own. Try to get all the projects that require concentration and solitude done by this date. After June 20, you will also finish your most intense phase of introspection and move into a more active, high profile stage. You will like this phase better - it will seem more familiar to you - and you will be able to act on plans, confident that things are finally moving in the right direction.
Romantically, Venus will move through Cancer from June 18 to July 12 and at that time will introduce a soft, poetic stage to your social life. You'll be at your most alluring during these weeks, for Venus is the so-called "lazy" planet that will teach you the wisdom of not trying too hard to get the eye of the object of your affection. Instead, Venus will show you that your natural charm will be enough to magnetize others to you. We all get Venus in our sign but once a year, and this is yours, just in time for your birthday.
All month, with Mercury acting up, when it comes to love and relationships, be willing to go the extra mile to be sure your messages are being received in the way you intend. The cornerstone of a good relationship is always superb communication - make sure you pick up and give out the right vibe.
Your most romantic evenings include: June 6, 13, 14, and 28-29. Let me discuss these dates for a moment so that you know why I have singled out these days for you.
June 6 has a big red star because the two cosmic lover planets, Venus and Mars, will be beautifully angled on this date. Use June 6 to schedule a blind date - it could bring you surprisingly positive results (and good chemistry too)!
June 13 and 14 bring glamorous Neptune into the picture, and with the moon also in highly compatible Scorpio, you've got the makings of a truly romantic set of evenings. Use one or both of these nights to enjoy some sort of art - go to the movies, a concert, or a dance performance, as a few examples. If you decide to dine out, make it the most romantic, quiet, candlelit setting you can find.
The end of the month, on June 26-29, your friends will want to be with you. Let them cook up something and go along with their ideas - those plans will be simply splendid!
Summary
Think of this month as revitalization month, the right time to find your center and to find ways to sooth your mind, body, and spirit. With Mercury in retrograde, the pace will be very slow during the first three weeks, so take a moment to jump off the merry-go-round of life to think about what really matters to you. What would truly make you happy, dear Cancer? What parts of life are working well for you and what parts would you like to change or even end? With a new moon to light your twelfth house of the subconscious on June 3, you'll want to reflect upon the past and plan for the future.
If you have a destructive habit you'd like to stop, this would also be the month to turn over a new leaf and design all the steps you need to get healthier. If you need a friend, spiritual coach, or other professional to help you reach your goal, you can find that person now.
Mars will spend all month in your financial house, so whether you planned to or not, you'll be spending quite a bit of money. If you don't have a trust fund (it would be helpful now), fortunately you can find ways to keep control of your budget. Cosmic bodies moving through Gemini - the new moon, Sun, Venus, and Mercury - will be well angled to Mars, allowing you to find bargains if you search for them as well as new sources of income. Make investment decisions or sign key business deals from June 23 - 25 for best results (after Mercury goes direct but prior to Uranus' turn retrograde).
The full moon on June 18 could trigger an unusually strong and emotional confrontation with a co-worker or subordinate. This person may work in the next cubicle, or she may be your assistant or other worker that you hired. In your personal life, this person may be your housekeeper or babysitter. This person - it looks like a woman - will likely be pushy in a way that could actually enrage you. This will be a difficult moment, and it could cause a parting of the ways. At the very least, you will see this person's true character and motives.
Romantically, love may be a bit rocky this month, for you may find areas of disagreement. However, because you have Jupiter (good fortune) in your house of marriage, and Venus (love) glittering in Cancer in late month, you should be able to find a happy resolve. Wait until after the emotional full moon has passed to have that heartfelt talk. This full moon is locked and loaded, which is why you will want to steer clear of it, and it will be strong until June 24.
Single or partnered up, Venus in Cancer will make you ultra-alluring all month.
Remember:
Be sure to go out on your four-star nights: June 6, 13, and 14 and enjoy the company of friends June 26-29.
Decide on a habit to quit, take steps beginning June 3 plus 2 weeks.
Watch for confrontations with subordinates, co-workers: June 18 + 4
Sign papers, make investment decisions: June 23-24
Make a promise or pact: June 24 for any subject
