Weekly Horoscopes: June Week 3

Let the stars guide you.

June 9, 2017

The cosmic word this week is “change” and the stars are urging us to lighten up, brighten up, and embrace the shifts — even if it’s just with ombré hair or a new summer lip. Even when you want to hold on tight to your relationships, your stuff, and old stories you tell yourself about your own limitations, take the risk to roll down the windows, lose the roadmap, and choose to believe in the power of possibility.

The week’s major energy hit comes on June 16, as Neptune stations retrograde, followed by June 17’s waning quarter moon in Pisces. This combo feels kinda like a yacht party. It’s time to fall back in love with our fantasies of how things could be and set sail into the blue. But we still need to be responsive to the currents and tides to steer our ships. It’s all about getting super dreamy without being delusional, and aligning our soul goals with the real world.

With the combo of Venus in Taurus until July 4, and Mercury in Gemini until June 21, don’t be afraid to communicate your desires. By saying exactly what makes you feel good, you’ll discover hidden resources that can support you as you plunge into this week’s new waters. But don’t forget that SPF, baby!

1/12
In the stars: Deep emotional dives that lead to career shifts; challenging the superficial; rediscovering what turns you on.
In your life: Sometimes you like to keep it light, Butterfly Babe, but this week is all about noticing when staying on the surface becomes an avoidance of real soul growth. Sink your teeth into challenging convos and emotions. Cry it out. Dance it out. Let it out. Wrap yourself in comfy blankets or dramatic caftans and head outside. Use cutouts and midriffs to play with the idea of exposure. Know that you don’t have to pick up your phone or fill up your cal to distract. All you have to do is BE. And you are absolutely ready for this.
2/12
In the stars: Adventuring away from your home base; opening to new philosophies; utilizing your support system.
In your life: Time for a shellabration, Mermy! Call up your besties and make a plan of attack. Forget your Netflix and chill, and choose to mix and mingle. Sign up for a wild dance class. Get philosophical with a trip to the planetarium or lookout point in your city. Get OUT there with your fashion choices and find inspo in street styles. Mood board it. Collage it. Bless your home base and all the strength you’ve received from your roots but know that it’s time to grow on-the-go.

3/12
In the stars: Getting real about intimacy fears; collaborating to increase your cash flow; discovering power in vulnerability.
In your life: Don’t worry, Glitter Kitten, there will be plenty of time for fun in the endless sun this summer. Instead, let this week be about discovering the juiciness in getting really REAL. Notice where you want to shy away from the deep, darker stuff in partnership. Where that pumping, beautiful magenta heart of yours feels soft and exposed and vulnerable. Move towards that. Glam it up with lace and pinks and reds and make some declarations. Risk that heart and watch how powerful and glorious it can be to step directly in the center of your fear. Play with your fears. Let them become rainbows that lead you towards pots of pure gold.
4/12
In the stars: Seeing a relationship more clearly; surrendering the controls; speaking out at work.
In your life: No more martyring yourself to the cause this week, Virgo. Notice where you keep quiet. Notice where you toil on in a partnership without really assessing what your actual needs are. Notice where you try to keep it “together” because you don’t really believe there could be another way. And then use your notorious attention to detail to actually see where you hold back from your own power. Do an emotional closet cleanse. Power up with new work or school clothes that feel super streamlined. Let the light shine in, even when it shows you things you might not like. Let everything be illuminated.

5/12
In the stars: Changing up your regular routine; embracing your sexiest side; planning your dream summer vacay
In your life: Put those sweet rose colored glasses back on, Libran Queen, but make sure you’re packing your pink garter belt as well. This week is all about a refresh in perspective for you — no matter how small. Swap your usual fragrance for something brighter and bolder. Wake up early for breakfast in bed or build a mini dance party into your post-work or school routine. Let these small shifts help you dream bigger and wider. Ride to the beach with the top down. Let the wind tousle your hair. Leave your to-do list undone.
6/12
In the stars: Embracing your creative force; believing in romance; getting curious about your true desires
In your life: This week asks you to blend some of the work you’ve been doing to embrace the “lighter” side of life with your characteristic go-for-broke mentality. Leap into action with a creative project and let it get messy and real without having to lose yourself completely. Trust that you can have it both ways — the deepest dives don’t have to be so difficult and fun can be serious stuff! Fall in love with whatever you feel like moving towards right now. Whether it’s rom coms or heavy metal or a fierce stiletto or even “the one your mother warned you about,” let whatever and whomever you love move you back towards your authentic self. What makes your skin tingle and your heart race? Choose that.

7/12
In the stars: Knowing when to retreat; reconnecting with your family; committing to health
In your life: It’s back to the stable for you this week, My-Little-Pony. Drop back into your body and all its exquisite knowledge and let treating yourself oh so sweet and right be a grand adventure. Let something as simple and vital as really luscious skin care feel like a whole new world. Spice up your meals. Drink a bold colored smoothie with edible flowers. Pitch a tent in your bedroom and hole up inside watching adventure shows. Stay up late just listening to music and see where it takes you. Phone home. Flip through old photos. Return to yourself.
8/12
In the stars: Inspo for a new project; helping a friend in need; getting playful in love
In your life: Listen in this week, sweet Cappy. Reconnect to your network and discover exactly who needs your love. It may not always be easy for you to expose your own desires, but let the way you love others this week help you get in touch with your own emotions. Cheer somebody up. Text whimsical emoji combos to your besties. Send summer Valentine’s cards for absolutely no reason. Go for a mani pedi with a friend and choose peachy pink. Let these acts of connection light you up. Let yourself find strength in softness.

9/12
In the stars: Getting creative about your income; loosening your grip; valuing your inner life;
In your life: While your wildest visions are sometimes far beyond what the world is ready for, this week finds you balancing between pragmatism and crazy innovation. Build that Etsy page you’ve been dreaming about. Pick up a side gig. Start blogging. Find interesting ways to let your loony out that also feel super practical and grounded and stable. Let it all feel looser. Shake it out. Embrace free flowing fashions. Let your hair get wild and wavy. Watch it all unfold.
10/12
In the stars: Wearing your heart on your sleeve; sticking to your guns; speaking your mind to those closest to you
In your life: This week is not about compromises or people pleasing, Pisces. Don’t let anyone run roughshod over your feelings or swallow you up in their stories. It’s a week to return to your center as the protagonist of your life and not apologize for this. Realize that emotional exposure can actually be the seat of your strength if you choose to commit fully to whatever you’re feeling. Think bold, saturated colors, power ballads, and emotional declarations. Commit to your bigness. Speak out and shine on, even when your love beams challenge others. Let yourself reach new heights in relationship through these challenges.

11/12
In the stars: Tapping into your fantasy life; releasing your ego; learning to ask for help
In your life: What if you could come undone just a little bit, fiery friend? This week is all about tapping into the wider world and learning how to ask for support. You don’t have to go it alone. You don’t have to shoulder all the burdens, even though that sometimes makes you feel like a badass (and don’t worry, you absolutely are one!) Trust that not everything has to be “actioned.” Get dreamy with it. Take an afternoon nap and see what visions come to you. Release from the rational and the need to do it all. Practice doing nothing at all and see what inspiration comes from there.
12/12
In the stars: Finding pleasure in simple beauty; shifting ideas about your future; meeting new friends
In your life: Get back to basics this week, Taurus, but let those basics be luxe! Think about a new pair of jeans … that lived in, yet ready-to-go, quality can guide you this week. You started prepping last week but now it’s time to pack your bags and make a move. Get outdoors. Go glamping. Burn exotic incense. Plant flowers. Sit around a beach bonfire with new friends and tell stories. Be free with your words and generous with your friendship. Open up to the adventure of it all.
