JUNE 2010
Zodiac Mood of the MonthJune is a busy astrological month with a fair number of changes. Uranus moved into Aries late in May which zipped up the mood - and probably tempers at the same time. Jupiter then joins Uranus in Aries which will help and there'll be a definite lucky break come the 8th as they get together. This brings relief from certain tensions and a sense of new opportunities popping up.
Mars moves into hard working Virgo after quite a few months in Leo which will also see a shift in mood. Apart from a lack lustre Mars opposition Neptune on the 4th there's nothing too significant aspect-wise for another ten days apart from the upbeat one on the 8th.
Mercury moves into chatty Gemini on the 10th and then Venus moves out of self protective Cancer into fun loving Leo on the 14th for the rest of the month.
The Mars trine Pluto on the 15th may throw up a few challenges requiring perseverance and push but Venus is on hand to sprinkle a little frivolity around as well. The Sun squares Saturn on the 19th which could see delays and obstacles, and at the very least hard work.
Then the Sun slides into watery. Emotional, home loving Cancer on the 21st to stay for four weeks. It'll have a rather roller coaster ride early on with a surprising, rather unco-operative square to Uranus on the 22nd ; then an expansive over confident square to Jupiter on the 23rd and a very controlling, determined opposition to Pluto on the 25th. Some people will push too hard and others will have to step aside. Just try to go steadily. The Lunar Eclipse on the 26th will be an intense one since Pluto is close by as well as being aspected by Uranus Jupiter and Saturn. So there may be major events out in the world.

JULY 2010
Zodiac Mood of the Month
July will be more free flowing at least for the first three weeks with the Cancer Sun only in a positive aspect to dynamic Mars on the 11th. Though there is a Total Solar Eclipse the same day which as ever brings its own sense of heightened awareness. Though in an odd way it won't be as challenging as the Lunar Eclipse late last month. However it is still a time to make changes in certain areas of your life even though it feels like an effort.
Venus moves out of flamboyant Leo on the 10th into more under stated Virgo for a few weeks, though it will still manage a seductive twirl on the 13th.
It is the final ten days where the planetary movement starts to hot up. Saturn moves into Libra finally for good on the 21st to stay till 2012. Hopefully it will bring a push for fairer agreements though it's also likely to involve harder work. The Sun moves into Leo on the 22nd for 4 weeks. On the 25th and 26th there's a super confident (overly so) Jupiter square Pluto, a Full Moon and a lucky Sun trine Jupiter so it'll be a packed couple of days. With the wobbly, tense, outspoken, economic downturn Saturn in Libra opposition Uranus in Aries on the 27th. And as if that wasn't enough Mars moves into communicative Libra on the 29th and immediately hits the opposition to Uranus and the conjunction with Saturn. This will be accident prone, argumentative, teeth gritting and not too plain sailing.

STAR CYCLES: HEAVENLY WINDS - Dates.
| Sun |   | |
| Mercury | | |
| Venus | | |
| Mars | | |
| Jupiter | | From January 17th 2010 in Pisces till late Jan 2011 apart from a few months from June to early Sept 2010 - charitable, kind, slightly head-in-the-clouds. In Aries in the middle phase and after Jan 2011 - dynamic, adventurous, go ahead. |
| Saturn | | In Libra till early April 2010, and again late July 2010 to October 2012 = serious about one to one relationships and agreements. In Virgo early to July 2010 - serious about health and work. |
| Uranus | | In Pisces December 2003 till 2010/2011 = revelations and new insights into creativity, spiritual beliefs and psychology, disinclination to face difficulties. Operates like Uranus transitting the 12th house so psychological upsets, surprises which bring anxieties, no deeper understanding of causes of events. In Aries from May 28th to August 13 2010, and then again from 1 March 2011 till 2018 - hyper-active, energetic, determined to make new starts even if it means upsetting people, go ahead. |
| Neptune | | In Aquarius 1998 till 2011 = supposedly about enlightened humanitarianism and the universal brotherhood of man, though more likely bringing uncertainty about the future, old scientific attitudes being undermined, social values being eroded. |
| Pluto | | In Capricorn for sixteen years from Nov 26 08 = complete deconstruction and reconstruction of global economic and commercial structures and systems, as well as major changes in way in which governments work. In past times of Pluto in Capricorn (approximately every 250 years) there was territorial domination on a grand scale by charismatic leaders and ultimately a time of culture, learning, justice and prosperity. |
