6/30/23 ✨ Neptune Stations Retrograde
✨ Happy Venus Day!
SUN IN CANCER | MOON IN SCORPIO >> SAGITTARIUS
AFFIRMATION OF THE DAY: I trust my intuition will lead me to the insights I need to know now.
🪐 MAJOR TRANSITS:
♓️ NEPTUNE STATIONS RETROGRADE (27º) 2:07 PM PT
DO pay attention to the man behind the curtain.
The planet of fantasy and spirituality makes a pivot into its annual retrograde, pulling back the curtain on the illusions we've been buying into. Deception could be revealed over the next five months. This feels like a behind-the-scenes look at the mechanisms that create the projections of our reality. Over the next 5 months, we're invited to go back and review any points of confusion or people we've placed blind trust in. Blurry boundaries could become more defined as a result. We might also be forced to review our own sense of faith and belief as we revisit our connection to a higher consciousness- both individually and collectively.
♋️ SUN CONJUNCT ♋️ MERCURY (9º) 10:05 PM PT
Mercury passes through the heart of the sun, opening us to profound reflection and insight. We refer to this phenomenon as Mercury Cazimi- a moment when the planet of communication takes over as ruler of our solar system for just a moment as the sun’s rays supercharge its influence. (The word “cazimi” comes from the Arabic term for “in the heart of the Sun.”) Connecting to our intuition and dropping into our body can lead to powerful realizations. Being in nature and soaking in the suns rays today can supercharge this moment.

THE MOON:
🌔 WAXING GIBBOUS MOON IN SCORPIO ♏️
The growing moon in deep, dark Scorpio, illuminates hidden desires and emotions. Any feelings we’ve repressed could surface over the coming days. When the moon is in Scorpio, we crave intimate, energetic connection with others. We want to be deeply understood and we are drawn to extensive research and exploration of the psyche.
♏️ MOON TRINE ♓️ NEPTUNE (27º) 3:00 AM PT
Overnight harmony between the moon and Neptune sets the stage for vivid dreams. Pay special attention to the messages that come through when your subconscious has the space to be expressed. Deeply buried insights could surface.
♏️ MOON SEXTILE ♑️ PLUTO RX (29º) 7:00 AM PT
A sextile between the moon and Pluto takes us deeper into our psyche. We could wake with powerful realizations from vivid dreams. We might begin our day experiencing intense emotions as well. Lean into whatever is coming up and allow it.
🌔 WAXING GIBBOUS MOON ➡️ SAGITTARIUS ♐️ (8:00 AM PT)
The growing gibbous moon in Sagittarius asks us to have faith that everything is working out for our highest good. We have a sense of optimism and adventure as we prepare for the culmination of this cycle. We could learn new information that informs how we’ll move forward. Spontaneous adjustments can be made over the coming days in order to find greater alignment with our sense of purpose and achievement. Generosity comes naturally too.
♐️ MOON SQUARE ♓️ SATURN RX (7º) 9:00 PM PT
A Friday night square between the moon and Saturn could make it feel like we’re crashing hard after a long week. We could crave isolation or simply feel a little blue. While the Sagittarius moon urges us to be optimistic, Saturn in Pisces can bring about a melancholy energy.

✨ TSJ’S TAKEAWAY:
The clarity of our intuition can cut through the fog of our rational mind today. As Neptune pivots back into its annual retrograde, the veil of the illusions we’ve been subscribing to is lifted. Powerful realizations are possible late tonight when Mercury passes through the heart of the Cancer Sun, taking over as ruler of our solar system for a moment. Open to insights. The Waxing Gibbous moon enters Sagittarius on Friday morning, connecting us with a sense of hope and faith. As we prepare for the culmination of this cycle, we can trust spontaneous urges will help us align with our highest calling. Take it easy tonight when the moon squares Saturn. Our energy levels could plummet, but stillness can create a fertile window for aha moments.
