The new moon makes a square to Neptune and a semi-square to Venus.
This new moon can feel unclear. It feels like not quite the right time. It seems like you want to chat and have conversation and yet you don’t. Maybe you just want to lie around or hide away. This is not a time to have serious or definitive conversations with lovers. This is more a time to just take it slow, rest, create alone by yourself, conversate with yourself. Record your conversations and replay them to try and see what you are really saying.
The summer solstice is coming on June 21st, the longest day of the year, that will feel like a more opportune time to set intentions. It is the moment of clarity for intentions before you go back inward. This summer Venus will be Rx in Leo and leaving lots of time to reflect on your desires of the heart. You will be craving fun and joy at every moment and giving into just that will help you further on your journey to fine tuning your values and matters of the heart. People from the past will seep in through rendezvous or just mention of them through passing conversations. Old sensations may arise and you may find yourself having to talk yourself out of re-opening doors that you thought were latched shut.
A chance to understand your relational patterns is on the horizon as the north node slips out of Taurus into Aries in July. With the nodes in Aries and Libra and Venus retrograde all summer relationships + romance and how you show up in dealing with them will certainly be top priority.
What is setting your heart on fire?
What has got you lit a blaze, ready and passionate?
What do you find yourself being brave enough to say and do?
What’s got you loyally committed?
How is what you love allowing you to lead your life with confidence?
What would it take to win your heart?
What do you value most in romance + relating?
How can you link the two (romance + relationship)?
This new moon think about these things, maybe record your thoughts so you can reflect on them this July and for now just go with the flow, zone out and see where an open heart and your creativity will take you.
Saturn will go retrograde the day before the new moon. Here's what that means...
The planet of structure, laws and time will be skipping backward in Pisces on June 17th until November 4th 2023. This is a time where we are more likely to want to hide from responsibility and bury our duties under time sucks like scrolling, Netflix, numbing substances or activities. During this summer and the Venus Rx influence having us wanting to dive into our earthly pleasures (and we should!), Saturn Rx will have us considering limits for doing these things, as they will have more of a tendency to get blurred and that's when we have to have awareness. The goals you have will be tested during this time. This is a good time to reevaluate your goals, especially since summer is an active time where we tend to take action on the intentions we have set earlier in the winter + spring.
RX is always the time of the RE, meaning re-evaluate, re-work, re-view, re-flect, etc.
We can also get REbellious during a Saturn Rx, wanting to review and question the rules. Frustration to change what 'IS' definitely arises. People or systems you thought would always be there to rely on may no loner be, but patience and faith will be your guiding lights through this season. This is the time where your dreams and fantasies will knock at your door and they will be hard to ignore, with Pisces in this position and with Venus in Leo both Rx. Take the time to get clear and reflect on those dreams, this time really is a time to find balance between what you want and how you're going to get there. You will need to consider the following:
How can I create a structure that will keep me organized on the daily?
Are my leisure activities wasting my time, are they even fun to me any longer or do they need to re-align with who the current version of me is?
How am I showing up at work? How can I re-structure they way I am doing things?
Am I utilizing my energy optimally or am I saying 'yes' without integrity?
Could I incorporate a daily practice like meditation, any kind of movement or creation/art practice where I feel my spirit and body are connected and grounded?
During this time a lot of doubt and uneasiness mostly self-doubt can arise but having faith in yourself and letting your desires and dreams lead you to what is next is the only way through the hard, sticky, emotional 'becoming' time. My advice here isn't to be fearful and work yourself into the ground, it is to stay grounded, have direction AND go with the flow when the flow takes you. Believe in your dreams, TRUST yourself and have faith that all is well.
