MAY 22-JUN 22
June’s Sun, Mercury and new moon in Gemini
have Your Twinship busy changing hats at a
moment’s notice as life’s scintillating kaleidoscope
shifts into new alignments. Mid-month’s once-a-
year new moon in your sign shines on brilliant
brainstorms, creative inspirations and your own
personal turn-on: stimulating conversation. Added
to this is the birthday gift of Uranus in your house
of healing for the next seven years, bringing
stability, order and efficient organisation to daily
routines. Sound boring? Not when it’s also an
invigorating life detox on so many levels. Which
might even find the new, streamlined you reading
Gemini Walt Whitman’s epic rave,Song Of Myself,
for a poetic description of your makeover.
CANCER • JUN 23-JUL 23
Progressive Gemini energy in your
house of transitions wants you to say
sayonara to old war stories, while the
late month full moon in practical
Capricorn insists on keeping it real
with sensible planning. Super-seductive
Venus in your sign till mid-month
gives you that warm, rosy glow, then
it’s Mercury’s turn – and with the
quicksilver messenger service in Cancer,
you become spokesperson for what you
love. How? Through intuition: that
instant assessment of variables and
their potential which helps you know
instinctively how to act. Final icing
on June’s cake is late month Sun in
your sign singingHappy Birthday,
Clan of the Crab ...
LEO • JUL 24-AUG 23
June’s airy vibes lighting your creative
ires bring a renaissance in your
contributions to the community. It’s
a moving kind of month and you’re
the zodiac’s stage managers, so if
something’s not working try shifting
the thing that most wants to be moved.
Mid-month Venus in Leo unrolls the red
carpet to romance with her trademark
lair, and a Sun/Mercury partnership in
the sign of home entertaining sees
your majesties hosting new friends and
playmates. During the last week of June,
when Mars could cause arguments, any
polarised stand-off between two will
beneit from a third-party presence.
VIRGO • AUG 24-SEP 23
Virgos prefer the bad news irst so they
can make a plan and develop a strategy.
Okay, but it doesn’t come until right at
the end of this Mercury-driven month
when assertive Mars sulks in your sector
of perfectionism and you demons-of-
the-detail only notice what’s not working.
That’s when you’ll need to hit the pause
button, zip the lip and press reset, because
who wants to be a nitpicking nagger?
More welcome news is that up until then,
you and June are a perfect love match
with spreadsheets, mind maps and
feasibility studies galore, plus recognition
and respect for your elegant eficiency,
witty input and dedicated efforts.
LIBRA • SEP 24-OCT 23
Security or adventure, safety or
stimulation, loyalty or new experiences
... this multiple-choice month could
give you analysis paralysis from
overthinking. So ask: Am I keeping up
appearances rather than being
authentic? What do I want my life to
look like? And feel? Do they match?
June’s the month of articulation and
you’re the zodiac’s partner sign, so
have that clarifying conversation with
signiicant others and closest colleagues.
As Venus morphs from mild to wild,
logging on to glam shopping sites and
partying at the theatre of life, there’ll be
a surfeit of surface sizzle, but look for
substance under the sparks.
SCORPIO • OCT 24-NOV 22
The month of the convivial Twins brings
plenty of fresh impetus to lip unsatisfying
scripts from the past into something
more contemporary and user-friendly.
The mid-month new moon gives your
house of intimacy a lunar lift, with Leo
Venus working her lashy mojo magic. As
June ends, an edgy quintet ofretrogrades
tightens tempers, torches patience and
ignites discord as Pluto, Neptune,
Saturn, Jupiter and Mars – planets of
transition, spirit, responsibility,
opportunity and drive – strive to align
your soul path with current reality.
Challenging you to embrace, as Scorpio

between pleasure and pain ...
