Weekly June 13-19th  2016

Aries:

The biggest astro-story of the week concerns Neptune, better known as the “planet of pink fog.” This ethereal planet is going retrograde on Monday, creating a strange sensation – as if dreams and waking life are spliced together. If you feel like you’re on a Hollywood movie set or living in some form of virtual reality, you’re just feeling the stars. Even though this influence lasts for months, you should get mostly adjusted to it this week. Spend some time drifting and dreaming, meditate and listen to your inner voice – you’ll do just fine. When Venus goes into Cancer on Friday, love comes home to you.

Taurus:

There are no big lunations to speak of this week, but that doesn’t mean the astrology is boring. The week starts off with a cosmic bang as Neptune, the planet of illusion, delusion and dreams goes retrograde on Monday. It will remain in retrograde for quite some time (through next November) but you’ll feel the bump mostly this week. You might be a bit out of it through Wednesday, so aim for clarity and give yourself extra time to finish any collaborative projects. Your ruler Venus moves into your communication zone on Friday; the next few weeks full of sweet nothings and sexy texts.

Gemini:

This week will not be your run of the mill workweek, Gemini – not by a long shot. It’s all thanks to Neptune, sometimes known as the “planet of pink fog” for its ability to throw everything into a state of confusion and delusion. When this dreamy planet goes retrograde on Monday, your professional ambitions are tempered and strange. You might feel a bit confused about what you want to do with your life for a while, but go with it and listen to your intuition. Venus moves into your money zone on Friday, helping you to attract wealth for the next few weeks.

Cancer:

This week will not seem to make sense, at least for the first few days. Neptune, the planet of dreams, confusion and delusion, goes retrograde on Monday. Although it will remain in backwards motion through next fall, the first few days of the retrograde are the ones you’ll feel the most. Your intuition will seem super strong, and in ways it is – but you have to carefully vet your feelings instead of immediately acting on them. The best news of the week arrives on Friday, when Venus, the planet of love and beauty, comes to your very own corner of the cosmos. You’re extra gorgeous now.

Leo:

This is a week like no other, Leo. You won’t necessarily feel grounded or realistic, but you’ll have to find a way to gracefully navigate all the strangeness unfolding all around you. Neptune, the planet in charge of dreams and illusions, is going retrograde on Monday. This will last for months, but you’ll feel it most for the first few days this week, as the “wobble” sets in. If you’re totally confused about sex and intimacy right now, wait a bit before making any important commitments. On Friday the planet of love and beauty move into your house of dreams, deepening your intuition.

Virgo:

It’s a weird week in your stars, thanks to murky, confusing Neptune. When the planet of dreams goes retrograde in your relationship zone on Monday, your partnerships won’t make much sense. Don’t try to figure them out now – just roll with it. Although Neptune will remain in retrograde through next fall, you’ll feel this influence most during the next few days. If you feel paranoid about your lover, let it rest until you have all the facts. Venus moves into your social zone on Friday, making your friendships extra sweet for the next few weeks. Networking can bring loads of love and pleasure your way.

Libra:

Neptune is the planet of dreams, and after it goes retrograde on Monday, the edges of your life might seem a bit blurry. You’ll feel this most in your daily life and your schedule. Be extra careful about any important meetings, because it will be easy to miss details. By Friday the real sweetness of the week arrives as Venus, your ruling planet, moves into your career zone. For the next few weeks, your status is totally on the rise. This is an ideal time to send out resumes, make important professional contacts, and make sure that you’re out there in a huge way.

Scorpio:

Neptune is moving retrograde on Monday, and you’ll feel this transition powerfully, Scorpio. That’s because the planet of dreams is currently in a sister water sign, so all her moves have a potent impact on you. For the first few days of the week be extra careful regarding both romantic and creative decisions, because realistic assessments could be hard to come by. Neptune will remain retrograde through next fall, but it’s most potent in the immediate few days. Meanwhile on Friday there’s amazing news: Venus, planet of love and beauty, is moving into a water sign. Cue the coziest possible vibes.

Sagittarius:

With Neptune moving into retrograde motion on Monday, the first few days of the week might feel weird and wobbly. You could be spacy and out of it all the way through Wednesday, so give yourself some extra time to get things done. Your closest relationships are right in the crosshairs of this astro-setup, so tread carefully with your family and friends. By Friday Venus, the planet of love, beauty and romance, moves into your house of sex. The next few weeks are sizzling, but also cozy and connected. This is the best possible outcome for your love life.
Capricorn:

This week brings some serious weirdness to the astro-mix, Capricorn. With mystical Neptune turning retrograde on Monday, the first few days of the week might have you feeling like none of your conversations make any sense. Clarity will eventually come, but you’ll have to listen closely and read between the lines. Note that Neptune will remain in retrograde through next fall, but the sensation is most obvious right now. By Friday your love life takes center stage as Venus moves into your relationship zone. For the next few weeks your partnerships will be dripping with sweetness, light and romance.

Aquarius:

With Neptune going retrograde in your money zone on Monday, financial issues are bound to be murky and confusing. Try to limit any major transactions at least for the next few days. Note that Neptune will be moving backwards through next fall – but as long as you carefully weigh your options and pay close attention to your bank account, you’ll manage just fine. On Friday Venus (the planet in charge of love and beauty) moves into your work zone, blessing you with easy productivity for the next few weeks – and lovely contacts with your co-workers. Romance might even blossom at the office.

Pisces:

You’re at the center of this week’s astrology, Pisces. It concerns your ruling planet Neptune – currently in your very own sign. Generally this is magical and positive for you, but when it goes retrograde on Monday it could throw you for something of a loop for a few days. Neptune will remain retrograde though next fall, but you’ll feel it most now – after that, you’ll adjust to the sensation. Be aware of boundaries and don’t let anyone manipulate you. Starting on Friday, Venus spends the next few weeks in your romance zone – this is one of the best times of the year for your love life.
