With the energetic shifts that have been happening lately, between Uranus (awakenings, truth) entering earthy Taurus, as Pluto (purge, transformation), Saturn (duties, discipline), and Jupiter (abundance, expansion) each retrograde - how have you been feeling about the life that you've been leading and creating?

Have your efforts produced some of the most sweetest and juiciest fruits? Or has life been idle, because you're still hopeful and patiently waiting?

Whether there's an idea to set a brand new goal, or maybe re-attempt to pick up where you've last left off - this can be an interesting time for reflection; to help redesign a new plan of action!

Never follow your dreams. Follow your effort. It’s not about what you can dream of. That’s easy. It’s about whether or not it’s important enough to you to do the work to be ready to be successful. Mark Cuban

This new week begins under a determined Taurus Moon on Monday June 11; our nose down and set to the grindstone. We could be feeling mighty encouraged to build more value to what we currently have; while prepared to submit to the tedious details of necessary work - like weeding out the old debris, gathered with some elbow work - for polish and shine.

As we pour ourselves into work, Mercury (thoughts, communications, journeys) will exit curious Gemini on Tuesday May 12, to enter sensitive Cancer - where our focus is turned toward the domestic nurturing of our inner circle, personal feelings, security, home, family and loved ones during the next two weeks.

To conquer oneself is a greater task than conquering others. Buddha

There will be an opportunity to experience what we need with the Gemini New Moon on Wednesday June 13. When our heart feels most quiet and vulnerable, we can either share our thoughts and words with each other - or hide behind our worries and fabricated stories.

Being heart-smart and understanding of our most deepest cravings; we can create a new emotional approach toward our needs - as New Moon's are a wonderful time to adventure toward start-ups, new beginnings and fresh projects. Whatever we may be dreaming of, fantasizing about and wishing for, well, these are powerful seeds of intentions. And what we're planting into the universe, will continue to grow and manifest. So pay attention to what is happening behind your words, but also behind your effort and your heart - especially with the Mercury/Uranus sextile that will sprinkle positivity, brilliant ideas and unexpected changes.

The simple truth is that when you fight inevitable change, you suffer. But when you embrace the change, you open to creativity, possibility and healing. Heather Ash Amara

As we swim through a strong flow of unsettled emotions and a confusing current of incoming thoughts; what we want will begin to shift as Venus (values, love, money) exits devoted Cancer and enters dramatic Leo. We'll want something that is much more expressive, dramatic and deserving; longing for romance, admiration and bling - with a fancy for gaining top priority. In regards to mentioning 'polish and shine' the earlier paragraph... making an effort really doesn't need to be such a dirty word!

If we don't notice (or care) about the seeds that we're planting, there's a good chance that we won't be able to see where we're going - and dreams could turn sour between a finicky Venus/Uranus square on Thursday June 14, a stubborn Mercury/Saturn opposition on Friday June 15 and a highly reactive Leo Moon over the weekend. It could be helpful to stay aware and mindful. For more insight, check out your tarot cards in the June Tarotscope. Starcana weekly tarot insight: Learning to maintain what still remains.
