The New Moon in Gemini on June 6 helps you break free from the past and start fresh. You may have a new perspective that feels freeing and liberating. Today also brings a new beginning for your financial world, from taking on new job offers to paying off debt. Mars, the planet of action and anger, enters Taurus on June 8, encouraging you to focus on your close relationships. Over the coming weeks, you could spend more of your time and energy helping a partner if they’re moving through a big life event, or fighting with a lover if tension has been brewing. Jealous haters also make themselves known; you’ll have to use your discernment to set boundaries and protect your time and energy.

Something from the past that you’d thought you’d moved past rears its ugly head on June 11 when Mars in Taurus rams into Pluto in Aquarius. Today’s energy is painful and reactive. People (including you) might react out of fear or lean on unhealthy coping mechanisms. If there are any unaddressed toxic patterns in your close relationships, you might have to confront them. You’re shining a light on your shadow side when the Sun and Mercury meet in Gemini on June 14. This can be a powerful day for extending forgiveness to yourself or others, if it feels right. The topic of trust can also come up in some of your connections: Some relationships dive deeper, while others have run their course.

Venus, the planet of love and harmony, enters Cancer on June 16, giving you a dose of optimism. When it comes to romance, you want to share new experiences with someone. You might have a whirlwind fling while traveling, meet someone at school, or date someone who isn’t your typical type. You’re also gaining attention for your ideas and wisdom. Others are eager to help bring your ideas to life, so share your thoughts far and wide! Mercury, the planet of communication, joins the party in Cancer on June 17 and new conversations and possibilities are explored. You could decide to book some travel, go back to school, pick up a new language, or study something new when Mercury and Venus team up in Cancer on the same day.
