June Energetic & Astrological Forecast

Hello June!

June is a month of change and is a sacred passageway, a month of cosmic culmination, emotional renewal, and spiritual activation. The energies build like a wave, starting with mental clarity and fresh beginnings, rising into spiritual truths, and cresting at the Summer Solstice, where heart-centered awareness and divine feminine healing come fully online. 

June may feel turbulent but it is shaking loose what no longer serves and the tighter you try to hold on or force anything, the more uncomfortable it will feel. 

Some Spiritual Themes of June 

Sacred Light Embodiment

• The Summer Solstice invites you to own your light while staying deeply rooted in compassion.
  
  

• Great time to consciously embody solar radiance and divine purpose.
  
  

Emotional Evolution

• With Cancer energy + Jupiter, there is deep emotional intelligence awakening.
  
  

• Ancestral healing, maternal wisdom, and intuition-led creation are big themes.
  
  

Truth Activation + Higher Path

• You are asked to release anything not aligned with your highest spiritual truth.
  
  

Spiritual Warrior Energy

• They call for soul-led action, healthy boundaries, and showing up for your mission with integrity, clarity, and courage.
  
  

June 6th Venus enters Taurus

This transit will remain until July 4th. In Taurus, Venus is comfortable, sensual, content, and perhaps possessive in ways. You may  fee the need to seek security more than usual during this cycle and place more value on things that last especially as Venus in Taurus improves and enhances our judgment of what we truly value. Uncertainty may bother us more than usual as we crave stability over excitement in love and joy.

June 8th Mercury enters Cancer

As Mercury enters Cancer, we shift from objective thinking to a more emotional and intuitive way of processing information. This transit invites us to recognize how our thoughts and feelings are intertwined, as communication becomes more personal and reflective. Mercury in this Water sign urges us to bridge logic and emotion, refining our ability to understand and express our feelings with clarity and compassion. It deepens our emotional awareness and helps us navigate sensitive conversations with greater empathy.

June 9 – Jupiter enters Cancer (June 9th 2025 to June 30th 2026)

This is a major shift. Jupiter, the planet of wisdom and blessings, moves into Cancer, a sign it is exalted in. This begins a year-long cycle of emotional growth, ancestral healing, intuitive expansion, and divine mother energy rising. This is a return to heart-centered abundance, healing through the maternal line, and building a sanctuary, internally and externally.

You may feel called to nourish your inner world, protect what is sacred, and find abundance through the heart. Family, home, land, and soul family will carry deeper spiritual significance now. Jupiter not only likes to expand, it likes to learn, so when Jupiter is paired with Cancer, we may be more interested in learning about our roots, connecting more closely with family and learning more about family. There may be more value placed on real estate, owning a home, expanding our home, and building a family during this period. We might have more faith in our family, as its value increases in our eyes. 

In Cancer, negative manifestations include sticking too close to things that feel familiar at the expense of our growth and moving forward away from energy that is outdated and limiting, eating too much (comfort food), smothering others, pampering ourselves, manipulative and roundabout behaviors, and clinging behaviors. 

Themes:

• Expansion of your emotional body
  
  

• Abundance through nurturing, receptivity, and creativity
  
  

• Homecoming to the soul and the feminine
  
  

June 11 – Full Moon in Sagittarius Strawberry Moon

Just before the solstice, the Moon swells with wisdom in Sagittarius, revealing what truths are ready to be fully embodied. This is a potent time of illumination, integration, and release of false beliefs, outdated worldviews, or spiritual bypassing. During this Full Moon, we have the opportunity to become more fully aware of what has been lacking or missing in our lives. This is a time for personal growth, particularly in terms of learning, adventure, spirited living, communicating, sharing, and commuting.

Sagittarius governs the seeker, the visionary, and the teacher within you. This  illuminates conflict between logic and intuition/faith, a symbolic “illumination” occurs in our own lives. These feelings and revelations are emotional ones, as there is a sense of emotions bursting forth into our consciousness. It’s time to express ourselves and to let things out of our systems.

Spiritual Energy:

• A truth-telling moon
  
  

• Releasing limitation and embracing liberation
  
  

• Illumination of your highest path
  
  

• Letting go of the “shoulds” and choosing soul-authenticity
  
  

Also June 9th/10th Pallas (asteroid) Retrograde in Sagittarius 

Pallas is often overlooked, but plays a profound role in both our strategic intelligence and spiritual wisdom..

Pallas is an asteroid goddess linked to wisdom and inner knowing, creative intelligence, sacred strategy, justice and diplomacy, the integration of logic and intuition and she represents the ability to see patterns and discern truth, and to solve problems through both intellect and spiritual insight. Her retrograde is about reclaiming inner truth and spiritual strategy. Sagittarius is the sign of vision, truth, philosophy, and higher learning. As Pallas retrogrades here, we are being asked to look inward and re-evaluate what truth really means to us.

It’s a time to question inherited beliefs or societal ideologies, reclaim your personal wisdom beyond dogma or tradition, align with your spiritual truth over intellectual pride, and pause external strategizing in favor of internal visioning. This retrograde activates deep intuitive downloads, especially around sacred activism, teaching and sharing wisdom and healing old narratives around injustice or suppression of voice

Spiritual Themes:

• Reclaiming your inner philosopher or priestess of truth
  
  

• Questioning what you’ve been taught and what you know soul-deep
  
  

• Redefining how you share your wisdom—shifting from proving to embodying
  
  

• Making space for soul-aligned strategies, not just intellectual plans
  
  

• Healing spiritual wounds related to belief, expansion, and vision
  
  

June 15th - Jupiter Square Saturn 

This square creates tension between Jupiter’s urge to grow and Saturn’s need to contain and structure. Jupiter wants to say “yes” to life, while Saturn asks, “But how will you sustain it?” It's a cosmic check-in between vision and responsibility, freedom and accountability. You're being asked to ground your big dreams in discipline, flow and conscious creation. This is not about denying expansion, it's about building it through integrity. Spiritually, it can feel like you’re tested before the breakthrough. It’s a sacred invitation to master time, energy, and self-belief.

June 17th - Mars enters Virgo

Mars is the planet of drive, action, and sacred will in Virgo, shifts into devotional service, refinement, and detail. This is a time for focused conscious action, strategic progress, and healing through grounded embodiment. Mars in Virgo teaches sacred effort, the kind that’s humble, skillful, and efficient. You'll feel called to cleanse, purify, and perfect your routines, body, and energy field. It’s about creating spiritual order, devotion through the details.

Best used for:

• Detoxing body and mind
  
  

• Clearing clutter and aligning lifestyle to purpose
  
  

• Sacred service or holistic healing practices

June 21 – Summer Solstice / Sun enters Cancer

The Solstice marks the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere and a major solar gateway. The light has reached its peak, and now begins its sacred return inward.

As the Sun enters Cancer, you are invited to shift from outward movement to inner alignment. This is a Divine portal to nourish your heart, connect with sacred lineage, and attune to your emotional and intuitive landscape. This is the spiritual new year of the light body. Some themes surround solar illumination and divine radiance, Soul nourishment, rooting into home, heart, and sacred feminine power, honoring your sensitivity as your strength and is a powerful day to anchor intentions for emotional balance, divine embodiment, and sacred protection.

The summer solstice holds deep spiritual significance, representing the triumph and integration of light over darkness and the peak of solar energy. It is a time for celebrating abundance, growth, and inner illumination, glowing from within. The solstice encourages us to embrace our own radiance, align with the transformative power of the sun, and embark on a journey of self-discovery and spiritual awakening.

June 27th  New Moon in Cancer 

Cancer is a cardinal water sign ruled by the Moon, so this lunation is especially potent and governs home, family, roots, emotional safety and security, the mother, divine feminine, and sacred nurturing, ancestral memory and the womb space, Intuition, empathy, and emotional rebirth. This New Moon initiates a deep inner reset, a time to come home to yourself. You are invited to heal emotional wounds and ancestral imprints, create space for gentleness, intuition, and sacred rest, redefine your sense of "home",within and without, plant intentions that support your emotional sovereignty and self-nurturing.
