Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate, our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.

We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world.

There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.

It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

June 2008 Horoscope

Lunations - Trends for All Signs

NEW MOON occurs on June 3, 2008 at 03:22 PM
This New Moon features the Lights being hugged by Venus, the planet of love and the arts in playful Gemini and all are in trine to a Libra Ascendant on the Eastern Seaboard! Optimism and ideas flourish now, even with Mercury retrograde in Gemini. Expect some confusion and remain flexible in both work and play. It is most important to remember to keep your sense of humor in spaces of busyness and to keep your silence in places of conflict. Chiron, the Dragon’s Head and Neptune are conjunct and all retrograde in trine to Mercury retrograde! This is an awesome time for reunions and bringing back music and artistic modalities of the past!

FULL MOON occurs on June 18, 2008 at 01:30 PM
This Full Moon in Sagittarius is very intense! This Full Moon conjoins Pluto retrograde in Sagittarius; opposes the Sun kissing Venus and both of the Lights form a T-square to Uranus in Pisces!! Changes in the Earth, atmosphere and weather will still be evident. Be alert for recalls on food, difficulty with crops as well as spills on the coast. Although compassion will abound in this cycle, practical solution and technical innovations will better serve the population at large. With Mercury retrograde in Gemini posited in the Ninth House of the Lunation chart on the Eastern seaboard – expect flight delays and mix-ups! Confirm all travel arrangements and have alternative plans in place if at all possible. Ride the wave!

Mercury Retrograde Alert!
Mercury retrograded in Gemini on May 26, 2008 at 11:48AM does not station direct until June 19th at 10:31AM. Mercury remains in its shadow until July 4, 2008. This retrograde is a double whammy! Mercury rules Gemini and although communications are always confusing, this one is magnified by it placement in Gemini. Mercury retrogrades once each season but has not retrograded in Gemini since May of 2002. Expect exaggerated concepts, duplicate billing and having to repeat or re-do many projects. Expect the need to repeat or explain yourself to nearly everyone! Take a deep breath!

Jupiter Retrograde Alert
Jupiter, the largest planet, stationed retrograde in Capricorn on May 9, 2008 at 08:11AM and does not station direct until September 9th at 00:16AM! It remains in its shadow until November 27, 2008. Corporate affairs and political posturing seem to be reeling backward rather than moving forward. Progress economically will slow down even more. The power is in sound judgment and a conservative approach with resources on all levels. Even as a country, we may halt an increase in debt – but not be able to make much progress in paying off old debt. Pace your generosity but DO honor your commitments in this cycle.

Neptune Retrograde Alert
Aquarian Neptune stations retrograde on May 26th at 12:15PM and remains so until November 1, 2008. It will be in its shadow until February 21, 2009! Neptune, the planet of dreams, imagination, faith, idealism and deception has been positioned in the progressive sign of Aquarius since late January of 1998. We have seen much that has revolutionized technology as well as a growing knowledge that we can be co-creators of our future. It retrogrades each year for a few months which gives us an opportunity to separate true innovation from intellectual illusion. Those with strong Aquarian or Pisces planets often feel they were born in the wrong time period in this cycle. It may, however, be an excellent time to reclaim peace, create new ways to help our fellow inhabitants on this planet as well to fine tune our technology for the masses!

Pluto Retrograde in Capricorn Alert!
On April 2, 2008 at 0523 AM, Pluto, still early in Capricorn stationed retrograde. It remains so until September 8, 2008 at 11.14 PM! This once planet, now dwarf, will ride the Sagittarian/Capricorn cusp all year! We have felt the shift over the past few months and its retrograde motion shows that we need this precious time to adjust. We have gone from global expansion to global occupation. The shift has been unnerving to many! Pluto’s entrance into Capricorn was magnified and dramatized by our largest planet, Jupiter, as it entered Capricorn late last December. Jupiter tours a sign once every twelve years and magnifies the influence of those planets that share that sign! The sign of Capricorn is conservative but initiating. It rules, government, the military, institutions and corporations. Its essence is forbearing and maintaining.



(Note: If you know your Rising Sign or Moon Sign, read that section, too!)



Aries ARIES MAR 20 - APR 20

Your ruler, Mars is in Leo all month and this complements your sign in a warm and courageous pattern! At New Moon, your ruler is opposing Chiron and the Head of the Dragon encouraging you to balance productivity and pleasure. At Full Moon, your ruler is lined up with the Dragon and opposes both Chiron and Neptune! If you have reached your limit – you will surely know it! Beware intoxicants! Your ruler is in trine to both the Full Moon and Pluto. Entertain yourself in the company you truly wish to keep! Reunions fare well as do visits to you or from you! Be honest in your affections in this cycle!



Taurus TAURUS APR 20 - MAY 21

Your ruler, Venus is in Gemini this new Moon and accompanied closely by the Lights! What a fabulous time to socialize and share unique experiences with those you love! With your ruler sextile to Mars in Leo – both men and women can contribute to artistic excursions! At Full Moon, your ruler has passed over the Sun and has entered Cancer. You will feel a shift toward security and peace. Your ruler opposes both the Full Moon and Pluto in late Sagittarius. It is to your best benefit to say “No!” to invitations that do not feed your soul. Family takes on an enhanced priority as do responsibilities to secure your lifestyle. Feather your nest!



Gemini GEMINI MAY 21 - JUN 21

Your ruler Mercury is in your sign and Retrograde all month!! Lots of luck! This month it is important that you double check everything! Expect to repeat yourself much; be misunderstood and misunderstand others! Avoid making snap judgments as it will lead to deep regrets. At New Moon, you will find yourself in great company whether you are traveling or roosting. Try to keep the conversation light and fun to avoid the pitfalls of the Retrograde. Even being a peacemaker can backfire!!! At Full Moon, things are much quieter – even isolating. Beware getting into futile quarrels with siblings and neighbors at this time!



Cancer CANCER JUN 21 - JUL 22

This New Moon kissing the Sun and Venus in Gemini is posited in the Ninth House on the Eastern seaboard propelling you into new adventures both spiritually and mentally! Travel can be exciting as can becoming part of a larger group – even going International! Communicating with kindred souls on higher levels can stimulate your optimistic spirit! At Full Moon, it will very easy for you to separate the talkers from the doers! If you are involved in community projects or family celebrations, choose the few that will really help you to create the best. Embrace humor and good will! Know when to relax in satisfaction!



Leo LEO JUL 22 - AUG 23

Your ruler, the Sun, is kissing the Moon and Venus in Gemini in this New Moon Lunation chart! Shine like the Solar Child you are and be sure to express yourself warmly and dramatically whether you are performing in play or toasting your host! Enjoy the pleasant exchange of ideas! At Full Moon, the Lights are in a T-square to Uranus in Pisces. This cycle is very helter-skelter! You may be searching for words and items and much confusion will interrupt the flow of your energy at this time. Unexpected emotional outbursts from you or those close to you are seen! Words cannot reflect your true feelings now. Go within.



Virgo VIRGO AUG 23 - SEP 23

This New moon, your ruler, Mercury, is retrograde in Gemini and part of a parade of planets in that sector! It is a great time to socialize and reunite with others – but throw practicality out the window! Ideas are everywhere but true solutions to life’s pressing problems are elusive. Just enjoy the party! At Full Moon, you may feel quite isolated and wonder what the heck everyone else is thinking. Old patterns return for good or ill. Think twice before you volunteer to do all the work in group settings. Financial and family stresses cause you to consider a new lifestyle or location. Delay decisions until Mercury stations direct! Wait!



Libra LIBRA SEP 23 - OCT 23

Your ruler, Venus, is in playful Gemini and kissing the Lights this New Moon! If you live on the Eastern Seaboard, your star is rising! Enjoy pleasant conversation, gatherings with peers or colleagues and accept invitations for new adventures in this cycle. Ay Full Moon, your ruler is riding the Gemini/Cancer cusp and opposing the Moon and Pluto in late Sagittarius. Risks suddenly lack appeal and you may choose to get cozy and put your energy into that which you have already established. Cooperation in the workplace may be lacking as some want to rush forward and others want to stand still. Step back!



Scorpio SCORPIO OCT 23 - NOV 22

One of your rulers, Mars, is in Leo all month challenging you to demonstrate passion and affection in your personal life; honesty and generosity in your professional life. Your co-ruler, Pluto will be riding the Capricorn/Sagittarius cusp and retrograde. You will be serious and cautious in business but lighthearted and adventuresome in your private pursuits. Respect and appreciation abounds this month – often coming from unexpected persons and even strangers. The New Moon calls you to share with those of like mind and spirit. The Full Moon, cautions you not to overextend! Good health is the treasure to invest in!



Sagittarius SAGITTARIUS NOV 22 - DEC 21

Your ruler, Jupiter, is Retrograde in Capricorn all month! This is an auspicious time to re-establish your position professionally as well as financially. In this cycle you will be able to easily discern those that have integrity from those who lack it. Your legendary optimism is tentative; but the results can be marvelous! At New Moon, changes you anticipated in your workplace will begin to manifest. At Full Moon, although it is normally a completions cycle, you will still see processes revealing themselves slowly. This month abounds with reactive energy. No matter what you see or hear, keep as calm as possible.



Capricorn CAPRICORN DEC 21 - JAN 20

Your ruler, Saturn, is in Virgo all month and in trine to retrograde Pluto on the Capricorn/Sagittarius cusp! At New Moon, you will desire to cut yourself free of obligations and travel or vacation. If you off to visit others – or if they come calling – it is bound to be a joyful time reconnecting. At Full Moon, you pull back and do some deep thinking. You want to approach your life with more passion and fulfillment. Now is a great time to look into your options – but not a time to move forward. Others may not appreciate your desire to move on and up in your life. Care and good analysis of your situation will serve you well.



Aquarius AQUARIUS JAN 20 - FEB 19

Your ruler, Uranus, is in Pisces all month blessing you with spontaneity and a sense of humor. Emotions will be running amuck all around you this month, so it is wonderful that you were born a fixed, air sign! At New Moon, many will not make sense to you and you will find their stories of their logic lack clarity and dependable information. At Full Moon, it moves from bad to worse! Marriage, family, finance and health issues will manifest outrageous reactions in those around you. At times, you may utilize humor to diffuse the situation; but having had enough you may just decide to withdraw into your own rational world.



Pisces PISCES FEB 19 - MAR 20

Your ruler, Neptune, is retrograde in Aquarius all month! At New Moon, Mercury is also retrograde in Gemini, in trine to your ruler! This is an excellent time to reflect on the patterns of the past and how they have moved you to where you now stand. The retrospect window of your soul opens wide to integrate the experiences of even the distant past. At Full Moon, Mars and the Dragon’s Tail in Leo oppose your ruler as it conjoins Chiron and the Dragon’s Head!!! Acceptance of the truth of what was and seeing people and situations as they really were – rather than as you wished them to be – is very healing and liberating experience! Breathe!
