June signals a moment of change, as Jupiter enters Cancer on the very first day of the month, moving away from the energies of 2025. We approach an interesting summer.
Starting from last month, we ended it with a Full Moon in the sign of Scorpio. This sign always begets some mischief. With that in mind, these first weeks of June have this intense energy to them. There is a great message of change now. It can deal with many reorientations or new agreements in the world.
Some miscommunications or odd announcements are likely to happen around the 3rd, as Mercury will form some odd aspects to Neptune and Rahu.
The 2nd half of the month is kicked off by a New Moon in Migrashira and the Sun entering Gemini. Both show a moment of collaboration, mingling and sharing in the world. It can be a good moment for travel.

Around the 20th, we have double duty. Uranus will form a Square to Rahu. On the same day, Mars will enter Taurus. The Uranus aspect can deal with turbulences, surprises or some kind of upheaval.
The Mars change is interesting, but milder. Mars will transit Taurus up until August 2nd. Mars in Taurus is a way less dynamic placement than Mars in Aries, which was all about movement. Mars here is about calming down, focusing and taking your time on what really matters.
On a mundane level, Mars in Taurus can deal a lot with financial or economic disputes. So in the months ahead, we can see some intensifications in trade wars and other economic conflicts. Similarly, Mars in Taurus can deal with inner strife between institutions; like the executive and the judiciary, for instance. This type of conflict could be prominent now.
The month will end on an interesting note, as Mercury will turn retrograde on the 29th, staying retrograde up until July 23rd. The usual precautions are advised:
Mercury is the planet of communications, so everything related to communications could be slowed down. Computer problems, miscommunications, delays in deliveries and other kinds of issues become possible. Avoid mistakes by double checking and confirming things, and try to be patient when problems arise.
Mercury will go retrograde in Cancer, but spend most of the transit in Gemini. Still, the retrograde cycle signals a longer transit in both Gemini and Cancer. The Gemini portion can deal a lot with uncertainty, back and forth and instability. The Cancer portion can show emotional issues and petty issues being brought into focus.
From June 23rd, up until July 4th, we will have Mercury, Venus and Jupiter all in Cancer. This 10 day period can deal a lot with these emotional or petty issues coming into play in the world. July 4th and 5th can be specially complicated dates, in this regard.
The Mercury-Jupiter combo is also interesting by itself, but that is an August matter, that I will discuss later on.
Also on the 29th, a Full Moon will happen in Purva Ashada. The combo of Mercury retrograde, this Cancer emphasis, and a Full Moon squaring Neptune is very interesting to me. The end of June and early July can show some kind of turbulence or conflict because of this.
Some kind of emotional event or deceptive affair could be triggered under this combo of influences.
Summary
I’m kinda tired and kinda late to this (it’s the 2nd), so I’m writing this a little shorter than usual.
Mundane
The month can trigger many changes, as Jupiter enters Cancer and there is a new focus in the world.
The first part of the month, after a Scorpio Full Moon, can deal with mischief and conflict.
The Gemini shift, around mid-June, can trigger greater collaboration and some degree of calm.
Around the 20th, with a Uranus-Rahu aspect, we could see some surprises or turbulences in the world.
The change to Mars in Taurus, also around the 20th, can mark the months ahead as a time of economic discussions and conflict.
The month ends with a strong Cancer emphasis, strenghtened by Mercury retrograde also in Cancer. Emotional and petty issues could be prominent under these influences.
Notable dates in June:
- 3rd
- 9th
- 17th
- 20th
- 23rd to July 5th
- 29th
Personal
On a personal level, this month can deal a lot with renewal, as triggered by the Jupiter sign change. I wrote a full text about it, where I mention some of the personal results of this transit, and I recommend reading it.
But back to June, the month is a mixed bag. It can be a good time for travel, specially around the middle. But Mercury retrograde on the 29th can deal with some troubles or delays. I’ve travelled with Mercury retro before, it’s not the end of the world, just be careful and attentive.
The Cancer energies pilling up, around late June and well into July, can be a great trigger for many of us. It can be a time to look back, engage with our emotions and make amends with the past in some degree.
Nostalgia can be strong under this influence. Be aware that we can’t go back in time, but we can try to build things that give us similar feelings as to those before.
