Horoscope for the week beginning June 5
By Michael O’Connor
Tip of the week
In terms of the dawning of the Age of Aquarius it is very early in the morning, about 6:15 a.m. or so, and humanity continues to experience a steady and rapid pace of awakening. Aquarius itself is symbolically linked to the concepts of awakening, illumination and sudden intuitive insights so the effect is all the more powerful and pervasive.
This awakening has many fronts. In the more dire sense it is linked to the plight of the world due to modern technology. For all it has and continues to provide, it has also produced a lot of negative side effects. Extreme global pollution on one hand and extreme power and corruption on the other, but the list goes on and is long.
Appreciating the human condition from this cyclic perspective can be very helpful. It provides a rhyme and reason as what may otherwise appear to be a relatively random and arbitrary state of affairs is actually not so and the current state of the world may be better understood. What this New Age model implies is that outer realities must and will and are in a steady state of change in accordance with the new themes implied by Aquarius and the frequencies it hosts. Yes, it sign can be understood as a different note, sound or frequency and so on.
The more immediate question we each must answer is how to best tune-in, adapt, maintain health and actualize our material and spiritual potential and responsibilities all the while. This is where Astrology, when applied with genuine vision of human nature and evolutionary destiny provides insight, guidance and wisdom above all others because its logic is that of the natural world, the rhythms and intelligence of nature.

June 5 – 11
Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)
Many thoughts, ideas, projects and activities are keeping you busy now. Fortunately, your energy levels are on a steady rise. Your creative aspirations are also at a peak. This may well include travel or at least the desire for it. At deeper levels you have arrived at a pivotal point of change. This will become increasingly evident over the coming weeks and throughout summer.
Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)
This time of year tends to be extra busy and this is likely to be true for you. Your ambition levels are at full throttle. Yet circumstances may require that you make extra efforts to shift your perspectives in order to adapt and doing so may be challenging. Positively, you are in a creative mood and directing your inspirations to beauty and art will uplift your spirits.
Gemini (May 21 – June 21)
You continue to enter new territory. The twist is that you may be as busy unraveling affairs from the past as setting new momentums into motion. At best, this is an exciting time in your life full of variety and love. Opportunity is knocking as well and possibly at more than one door. Despite any other setbacks, good fortune is also present.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
You are happy to be out of the limelight these days. Although quieter and less socially involved, however, you are still likely to be busy. Tending to a variety of fronts includes inner work as well as outer. This can be as simple as getting clear in your mind about things. Yet, it may also include confronting fears and doubts. Either way, you have work to do.
Leo (July 22 – Aug 23)
Dreams of possibility are flooding your mind. The more sobering question is: are you willing to do the work to make them a reality? Sometimes a dream is just that and it can be sweet. However, if your material reality and/or your spiritual destiny require a more tangible result then you must transfer your focus from the fluffy cloud above your head to the adrenaline that flows through your veins.
Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
Advancing in your career and or public life is in the spotlight now. With Mercury retrograde you may be feeling a little insecure or at least uncertain of your direction. Yet, you may also feel a growing determination to do something about it and this feeling will grow. However, it may feel like a roller coaster ride for a while. Focus to be centered amidst the highs and lows.
Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)
You have begun to see a bigger picture. At best you feel inspired and a new vision of possibility is emerging. At worst, you feel somewhat overwhelmed and lost. This is a call to move onward, forward and upward. Yet, be willing to pace yourself and do not let current confusions or uncertainties color your future, they are just temporary.
Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)
A process of deep reflection is underway. Growing ambitions to take deliberate action towards very particular goals are in question. Which directions are best for you? There may be two distinct paths anyway and they likely lead in significantly opposing directions. The question to ask is: which is a path with heart? This is not necessarily the same as asking: which will be more fun? Decisions, decisions…
Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)
Your relationship world is opening up. Yet as it expands you are challenged to both maintain your center to be authentic and to also exercise a healthy measure of diplomacy. Keeping it simple, avoid assumptions which lead to being blunt. What you deem obvious may not be shared by others. Speak your truth and ask others what they think and feel. If necessary, agree to disagree.
Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)
An industrious cycle continues. As willing as you are to do the work required, however, you are also busy wondering how you can work smarter. As per usual, the answer probably includes accessing the talents and resources of others. How to best decipher, locate and convince these other key players and agents is the other challenge? Begin with the end in mind.
Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)
A creative, playful and provocative cycle is now yours to enjoy. It has the potential to shift your perspective and attitude and to initiate new norms in your life. These can prove very satisfying to you and significant others. With love and romance in the air balanced by sensuality and desire for pleasure in your body, take the initiative now.
Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
A busy time on the home front is taking a lot of your time, energy and focus. Clearing, cleaning, renovating, moving and the like are featured. Yet, the shifts stand to be at least as much in your thoughts, perceptions and interpretations as your outer environment. It is important now that you work creatively and with diligence and faith.
