Welcome to your June horoscope! I come bearing lots of updates for this month, including ideas that have been brewing since 2020! On the 2nd, Jupiter trines Pluto, a rare aspect that comes with the opportunity to realize ambitious projects. Look out for the launch of experimental education platforms, gossip columns, and major breakthroughs in social media and AI.

Fresh on the heels of that major download, the New Moon in Gemini on the 6th brings even more mind-blowing information. New Moons are usually chill and restful but with Mercury, Venus and Jupiter all in Gemini, this one is hopped up on way too much caffeine. This New Moon also comes with bountiful art and romance. Venus meets the sun on the 4th, an aspect that renews creative passions, incites crushes, and—I hope my readers in toxic situationships are seeing this—let go and find more fulfilling connections.

Mars moves into slow and steady Taurus on the 9th so we can check for viruses, organize our files and integrate what we’ve learned. This is followed by an “a-ha!” moment and dose of clarity when Mercury meets the Sun on the 14th.

Romance is in the air in the second half of the month which begins with Venus and Mercury squaring off with illusory Neptune on the 16th. Venus and Mercury both move into Cancer on the 17th, and Cancer season begins on the 20th. From here on, we’re deep-sea diving, out of the heads and into the heart. But first comes a reality check with a sobering Full Moon in Capricorn on the 21st. If that vision is ever going to materialize, practical matters must be addressed first.

In order to take full advantage of this opportunity, you have to release your grip and stop forcing things to go how you think they’re supposed to go.

Money Horoscope: Budgeting is tricky this month. With your ruling planet Mars moving into Taurus and your finance sector on the 9th, you might feel like any cash on hand is burning a hole in your pocket. But this heated energy is less destructive when you use it to cut back on expenses or clean out your closets instead. Reducing what you own gives you more freedom to move around as you like.

June’s major transits kick off in your financial sector, but this isn’t just a boon for your bank account, it’s also a major boost for your self-confidence. Now that you know yourself and are proud of yourself, the goal is to find your community. The biggest challenge of June is finding a balance between committing to new social groups and becoming consumed by them. A huge opportunity to travel, take a class or meet with a mentor arrives at the full moon in Capricorn on the 21st to keep you anchored to your big picture vision.

Love Horoscope: Personal growth is far more important than any love affairs for you this month. But if you are involved, you may find you’re connecting with doting lovers who border on suffocating. Self care is the most important thing you can be doing right now, just be careful about too much (literal) exfoliation. Both alone and in partnership, keep it hot but don’t get burned.

Money Horoscope: The new moon in Gemini on the 6th marks a powerful new beginning for your finances. The instability of the last few years was hard for someone who likes to stick to the plan like you. But in the process, you’ve created so many new possibilities and ways to be successful.

Taurus Compatibility: Your Best and Worst Zodiac Matches, Ranked

• New Moon in Gemini (6/6): New moon, new you

• Other Key Dates: 6/2, 6/3, 6/4, 6/12, 6/14, 6/17, 6/21, 6/22, 6/26, 6/29

Happy Solar Return, Gemini! June brings rapid expansion, and for you, all this cosmic activity is going down in your sign. It’s personal! This is extreme “I’m coming out of my cage” energy. The subtle shifts in your appearance, style and health routines that have been brewing since 2020 reach their full expression now. The urge to get that piercing or dye your hair lavender or get acrylic nails isn’t going away, so why not experiment? There are still some fears and doubts you have around doing what’s best for you, and your biggest challenge this month is discerning what’s just a thought and what’s reality.

Love Horoscope: After a year of feeling quite ambivalent (best case scenario) or lost in your romantic life, you’re finally feeling more confident on your dates. Some particularly promising dates early in the month could grow into something more or simply be an ego boost. When it comes to love, follow your curiosity.

Money Horoscope: Some of the health or image shifts you’re craving may feel like they’re at odds with your personal or professional goals. But trust that you’re coming into a more aligned version of success. The full moon in Capricorn on the 21st brings a reality check around your partner’s income or shared resources. A deal that was negotiated back in January is now proven worth it or not.

Gemini Compatibility: Your Best and Worst Zodiac Matches, Ranked

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

• New Moon in Gemini (6/6): Solo retreat day

• Full Moon in Capricorn (6/21): A sensible date night

• Other Key Dates: 6/17, 6/20

June’s biggest transits bring lots of exciting energy and chaos, but for you, it’s less physical and more spiritual. There’s a lot of chatter—some might say an overwhelming amount—happening in your mind. The goal is to let go of those fears, the ghosts that keep you small, so that you can find more inner peace. It’s both important and not important to get caught up in “the meaning of it all.” Sometimes it’s good to go back to school and cite every source but other times all that analysis is just a distraction. You can find more focus through seeking feedback from like-minded friends, sharing your work with an audience, and making bold public statements about your dreams to keep yourself accountable.

Love Horoscope: If you’re feeling really out to sea this month, you can find grounding in your partnerships, especially around the full moon in Capricorn on the 21st. Sometimes the best medicine is focusing on someone else’s problems.

Money Horoscope: Gemini season brings the most challenging time of year for your finances. It’s not that you’re earning less, it’s that you’re spending more and don’t really know where any of it’s going. Take care and check in with your budgets. Once your season begins on the 20th, you’ll feel back in control.

MOST SUITED ZODIAC SIGNS, RANKED FROM WORST TO BEST

Leo (July 23 – Aug 22)

• New Moon in Gemini (6/6): A successful networking event

• Full Moon in Capricorn (6/21): Too much to do, not enough time to do it

• Other Key Dates: 6/4, 6/9, 6/14, 6/20

Connecting with the right people this month could be life-changing for you. You’re experiencing some major expansion through your friends and social groups. And look, we know you’re all about intimacy, but don’t shrug off a lead just because it’s coming from someone you don’t know that well. That person isn’t a bestie, but they do know about a job that’s a perfect fit for you. Finding the balance between maintaining bonds and staying in your own lane is your main challenge this month. If you’re struggling to get practical, the full moon in Capricorn on the 21st delivers a very specific to-do list that may not be what you want to do, but is definitely what you need to do.

Love Horoscope: So much of the last year has been spent untangling yourself from difficult relationships that have kept you enmeshed and small. Living in a romantic fantasy can be fun but not when you’re letting it keep you from making real commitments. Don’t let a romantic pipe dream keep you from reaching your goals.

Money Horoscope: Huge growth is available through investments, entrepreneurship and calculated risks this month (especially from the 2nd through the 6th). Early in June is also the perfect time to request a raise or seek new clients for your services. Trust that people want what you have.

Leo Compatibility: Your Most Suited Zodiac Signs, Ranked Worst to Best

Virgo (August 23 – September 23)

• New Moon in Gemini (6/6): A chatty job interview that goes extra long

• Full Moon in Capricorn (6/21): A romantic night out

• Other Key Dates: 6/2, 6/3, 6/4, 6/12, 6/14, 6/17, 6/21, 6/22, 6/26, 6/29

It’s easy to stick with what you know, but you don’t have to keep playing the helper. June pushes you into the spotlight. You have no choice but to take up space. Expansion in your career, public image and leadership roles reaches its maximum potential when you commit to the bit so stop thinking and start doing. Your biggest challenge this month is knowing when you should take a mentor’s advice and when you should stop caring about other people’s opinions. Identifying who’s takes you really trust is the first step. It’s OK to shift your perspective or take a bolder POV.

Love Horoscope: Though much of this month is focused on career stuff, getting ahead, or woo-ing your boss, there’s a full moon in Capricorn on the 21st that brings a romantic situation to its own climax. Something you initiated back in January is now revealed as fate or a flop.

Money Horoscope: This is a month for pitching your services, going on job interviews or taking the first steps to break into a new field. Some of the shifts you’re considering may require some extra expenses or a pay cut so consider what’s worth the sacrifice.

Virgo Compatibility: Your Most Suited Zodiac Signs, Ranked

Libra (September 23 – October 21)

• New Moon in Gemini (6/6): First day of school

• Full Moon in Capricorn (6/21): Housewarming party

• Other Key Dates: 6/4, 6/8, 6/16, 6/17, 6/26, 6/29

Part of you wants to stay home and ground into daily routines while another part of you wants to shirk all of your responsibilities and run away to a foreign country. A rapid download of new travel and education goals comes with growing spiritual pursuits. I didn’t say you were going to join a cult, but I didn’t say you weren’t going to join a cult either. Really this month is about opening yourself to a much more interesting view of the world and your place in it. If you’re bored of being a student, maybe it’s time to become a teacher.

Love Horoscope: Because of the way you were raised, you had to develop a bit of a tough exterior. Your inner emotional world often feels like a stone fortress. The full moon in Capricorn on the 21st sheds light on some of those stone walls and pushes you to welcome someone into your depths. What I’m saying is: invite your crush over to your place and see what happens.

Money Horoscope: Your next great adventure begins with cutting out unnecessary expenses and obligations to others. Instead of giving it all away, try to get some for yourself. It might not be “polite” to aggressively go after grants and loans or ask for debt forgiveness, but if there ever was a time to go hard? It’s now.

Libra Compatibility: Your Most Suited Zodiac Signs, Ranked

Scorpio (October 22 – November 21)

• New Moon in Gemini (6/6): Inaugural meeting of an auspicious collaboration

• Full Moon in Capricorn (6/21): Fundraiser at the local bar

• Other Key Dates: 6/9, 6/11, 6/21, 6/29

Isn’t it funny how your big goals become so much more achievable when you let others in on the scheme? The first step to making it happen is letting your closest people know and the second is addressing the root of any financial and emotional issues that are holding you back. This isn’t another pipe dream! This project has real potential. Think bigger about how to cultivate your own skills while bringing in talent from your local community. Why write off a collaboration with a friend as a silly little idea? You can have your utopia if you want it.

Love Horoscope: June is for having hard conversations. After so much change in your relationships over the past year, it’s time to prune some leaves to make room for even more growth. The easy way to decide whether you should stay or you should go is an honest answer to this question: are you on the same page?

Money Horoscope: The new moon in Gemini is a perfect opportunity to set up a first meeting with a financial advisor or therapist. Whatever you’re getting serious about right now is going to require more resources than you currently have available and it’s important to build systems for support and patronage with care.

5 Things to Know Before Dating a Scorpio

Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)

• New Moon in Gemini (6/6): A very cute day for a proposal

• Full Moon in Capricorn (6/21): Budget crunching palooza

• Other Key Dates: 6/2, 6/4

June is for breaking new ground in your closest relationships. It’s time to take that partnership or agreement to the next level. For some of you this will be the traditional moment of getting engaged, deciding to move in together, or signing on the dotted line with a business partner. For others, this moment is more about finding support and relief in parts of life that you previously felt you had to do all on your own. Either way, the key theme of this month is motivation. There’s been so much growth in your daily life over the last year and this month feels like the final training montage before the big game.

Love Horoscope: Part of growing and evolving through relationships is accepting that you can’t expect one person to meet every single one of your needs. How can you branch out beyond your primary partner or bestie and find more support?

Money Horoscope: No matter what your family wants you to do, you don’t have to have that kind of wedding (or business launch party or celebration for your new job). Who cares if your sister is already planning the bridal shower? Maybe you want to skip the wedding and buy a house instead. The reality check about what you can definitely afford and what you absolutely cannot comes at the full moon in Capricorn on the 21st.

Sagittarius Is the Single Most Optimistic Sign in the Zodiac—We Can All Learn from Them

Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)

• New Moon in Gemini (6/6): Maternity leave announcement at the weekly team meeting

• Full Moon in Capricorn (6/21): Uncomfortable but thrilling moment of (for once) having everyone’s attention

• Other Key Dates: 6/8, 6/9, 6/12, 6/26, 6/29

You’ve been craving more freedom at work and June is all about planting the seeds of an upcoming sabbatical, entrepreneurial venture or shift in your work environment. Jupiter is now in Gemini and your sixth house of managing health and daily routines, and it’s in these parts of life that you have the most room to grow over the next year. These first steps toward wellness culminate at the full moon in Capricorn on the 21st which puts the spotlight on your personal health, beauty routines or style choices. Does your outward appearance match your state of mind?

Love Horoscope: The last year brought many shakeups to your romantic life and this month brings one final break that gets you more aligned with your true desires (around the 9th-11th). On a broader social level, the freedom you’re seeking right now is an inspiration to your closest friends but it also might trigger some jealousy. Don’t let the projected fear of others muddy your goals.

Money Horoscope: Part of the freedom you’re seeking at work is of course about doing less and earning more. As Jupiter and Pluto make their rare alignment on the 2nd, you have an equally rare opportunity to articulate your wildest dreams around income, wealth and stability, and then actually get some of what you want.

How Capricorn Are You Really (on a Scale from “Goat” to “Check Your Birth Certificate”)?

Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)

• New Moon in Gemini (6/6): A very strange but super-hot first date

• Full Moon in Capricorn (6/21): A powerful moment to get out of your own way

• Other Key Dates: 6/8, 6/9, 6/12, 6/26, 6/29

June is for reclaiming something you love, and tapping into more authentic self-expression. The haters might say it’s too late to become a rockstar, your friends might tell you that you won’t find love unless you’re on the apps, and your sister might judge you for being skeptical of the latest trendy parenting style. But the only person actually standing in the way of your desires is you.  The first step is to stop taking yourself so seriously. Your fears around being a weirdo or “too much” are holding you back from making great art and having great sex.

Love Horoscope: If you’re single, the new moon in Gemini on the 6th marks an almost psychedelic new beginning in your love life. You might meet someone truly out of this world, strange but grounding at the same time. And if you’re partnered, this is a wonderful time to reignite the romance and explore new sex toys.

Money Horoscope: As exciting as it is to accept repressed desires and open up new pathways to pleasure, you’re also feeling limited by your current budget. “If I had more resources than I could actually do what I want,” you might be thinking. But now’s not the time to settle. It’s time to get creative! Just be careful you’re not taking things in the opposite direction and splurging on things you absolutely cannot afford.

So This Is Why the Aquarius Personality Is So Rare

Pisces (February 19 – March 20)

• New Moon in Gemini (6/6): Cross-country move initiated!

• Full Moon in Capricorn (6/21): Cathartic gossip sesh with coworkers

• Other Key Dates: 6/2, 6/4, 6/29

June is the initiation of a big move, home purchase or decision to grow your family. It’s a very busy time for you, and though it might feel like a waste of time amidst all the other errands, take time to call your sister or inform the group chat what you’re up to. It’s also essential to prioritize daily me time in order to avoid burnout. My mother always says, “Moving is trauma,” and even the most ideal level up is exhausting. A quick mat Pilates class or manicure or epsom salt bath takes 20 minutes and will get you out of overwhelm and into your body.

Love Horoscope: The full moon in Capricorn on the 21st is much more practical than romantic, and for you, it speaks to finding more grounding in your friendships and community. That being said, it also might be time to release expectations around certain friendships or dreams that just aren’t coming true.

Money Horoscope: Mars—the planet that governs your personal bank account—plods into steady Taurus on the 9th, a transit that aligns with spending more on the day to day needs and having less to put away for the future. This influence won’t last forever though. So live in the present! Grab drinks with a friend! Buy yourself some little treats!
