Horoscope for the week beginning June 26
By Michael O’Connor
Tip of the week
Venus and Jupiter conjunct in Leo are ‘all the rave’ now. This is a hot, passionate, sexy, romantic, playful, dramatic and altogether fun combination of energies.
Jupiter has been in Leo since mid-August 2014 and Venus just entered the sign of the proud lion on June 5. While ‘aware’ of one another, the flirting really began on about June 19. Since then the chase really began and the union when they will finally join as one, occurs on Canada’s Birthday, July 1. This will lend a very special charm to the fireworks indeed!
On July 19 the affair will cool off as Venus enters Virgo, not her best sign placement at all, no… not at all precious. However, as if lured back by unrequited love and passion Venus will literally, or at least apparently, hover at Virgo’s gate, slow down to a pause, stop altogether on July 25, then turn… retrograde and begin to move back towards her beloved Zeus once again.
Venus will re-enter Leo on July 31 where she will be met by Jupiter moving towards her just as quickly where, with bated breath, they will engage in long embrace before joining as one once again by exact conjunction on August 4. For an entire week the star struck lovers will linger finally saying their farewells with long kisses mixed and bittersweet promises of future reunion.
Yet, Venus retrograde is extra passionate, sensual and outright erotic than when direct. All the while with Jupiter she has been secretly aware of Mars, her other longtime lover, having entered Leo himself on August 8. As much as she could hardly tear herself apart from great Zeus it would have been a lie to say she was not excited about seeing her Mars. Jupiter out of the picture for now, having entered Virgo on August 11, Venus turns to run with hastening pace to meet her other true love knowing that she would be reunited with Mars once again on August 31 at the pinnacle point of the Leo. Get ready for a really hot summer.

June 26 – July 2
Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)
A rather deep cycle has begun. It is making you dig beneath the surface. The results of it will leave you feeling and perhaps even looking changed. You can choose to consciously engage to support a desired outcome. At surface levels you are in the mood to play. You can focus on both extremes and thereby strike the balance. Focus to have it all.
Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)
Your energy levels are running high and your confidences as well. Good thing too because people and circumstances are pressuring you to re-assert your commitment to the future. As old beliefs and philosophies steadily yield to new ones you are discovering that your relationship dynamics on a variety of fronts are changing. Play along and be willing to learn, grow and evolve.
Gemini (May 21 – June 21)
You have entered a time during which fixes, repairs and/or healing is destined to occur. These procedures will not be easy overall nor will they be completed quickly. Extra efforts and patience will be required. The good news is that you can see and feel the light and warmth of love and blessings surrounding you. Allow these to energize your resolve.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
You are entering new territory with bold strides. Opportunity is knocking and you are determined to answer. Rewards for previous efforts are featured. Many thoughts are running through your mind however and you may feel a bit overwhelmed. Circumstances may even be provoking you to clarify hopes, make wishes and perhaps even utter prayers.
Leo (Jul 22 – Aug 23)
A busy time behind the scenes continues. Important meetings and rich exchanges with others are likely. You feel inspired to take a few risks and express your thoughts, ideas and feelings elaborately. This is a good time for artistic expression or at least dramatic displays and carefree fun. In the deeper end the time has come to lay claim to gifts and powers that await your command.
Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
Your individuality is shining more brightly of late. You may even feel more rebellious than usual and even defiant. Although you may feel protected and blessed, you are still required to draw upon hidden reserves of faith. Reflections upon why you think, perceive, interpret and communicate the way you do are beginning to activate pivotal changes in your usual self-concepts.
Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)
If you have been waiting to get some extra attention the opportunity has arrived. In your public and professional sphere you will take an assertive approach but some might refer to it as aggressive. In your friend sphere however you stand to be the star. Sharing quality time with an emphasis on fun will bring out the performer in you and your audience is in for an exciting show.
Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)
A pattern of complex energies is indicated for you. Mixtures of philosophical, spiritual, visionary, rebellious and determined energy patterns are vying for your attention. All of this is packaged in a spirit of expansion and creative leadership. This is hardly a frivolous time and your attitude is somewhat sober and serious. The future beckons and you can tap into any or all of the above to activate an effective momentum.
Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)
Your ambitions are on the rise. Beyond the outer and obvious objectives, what you really want is to experience more inner peace. By letting go of attachments and reconsidering what is important, you can relieve a lot of stress. Be willing to make a break with prior beliefs, self-concepts and lifestyle patterns and rhythms that no longer satisfy.
Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)
Quality time shared with family and friends sounds good. Yet, there may be a few twists in the plot to contend with. Personality conflicts, interests and interpretations that do not mesh or even which clash are woven into this plot. With awareness, a flexible attitude and positive intent such challenges can be overcome. Without such harmony tools the results could be compromised.
Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)
Sincere efforts to get to the bottom of things in certain respects will likely prove successful and rewarding this week. Changes in your career will affect your daily rhythm. You are in a good position to receive some added recognition, but you may have to work a bit harder for it. Be willing to refine your skills and update your resume perhaps to take full advantage of this window of opportunity.
Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
A creative and playful mood continues. Yet, it may be woven with a bit of complexity and drama too. This is an invitation to dig beneath the surface and gain a new appreciation of perceptions and how commonly every person ultimately interprets reality their way. Focus to appreciate yours and their individuality, acknowledging and respecting differences.
