Dear Readers,

This week starts off with a bang! We begin the week with Juneteenth and Isis Feast Day on June 19th. The Jupiter-Saturn sextile that takes place on the same day is also believed to be one of the most important astrological aspects this season as it supports us to bring our long-held dreams into manifest reality. More on this below.

We will continue to feel the uplifting effect of this harmonious aspect for the rest of the week, though there are more exciting things to come.

On Wednesday, June 21st, Summer officially arrives as the Sun enters Cancer at 10:58AM ET. On Thursday, June 22nd, we enter the second phase of the final season in Mayan Solar Calendar: The Yellow Southern Sun Season of Ripening Enlightenment. Finally, the work week ends on Friday with a power-doubled day.

Without further ado, let's find out more:

Monday, June 19th, 2023:

Love/Destiny Card: J♣️ – The Mentally Creative
Voyager Deck: Child of Crystals – Learner
Mayan Signature: 7 CABAN Red Resonant Earth - Guided by the Power of Universal Water (Kin 137)
- Resonant: channel, inspire, attunement
- Red Earth: evolves, navigation, synchronicity
11:52 AM ET: Jupiter (7°12 Taurus) sextiles Saturn (7°12 Pisces)
- This is believed to be one of the most important aspects this season.
- A Saturn-Jupiter conjunction happened on December 21st, 2020. This aspect happens every 20 years and are referred to as "The Great Conjunction", they set the scene for the next 20 years and bring about milestones not only in our personal lives but also in societies. "To achieve our human potential and leave a legacy, we need to embrace both Jupiter and Saturn and find a balance between the two." (Astro Butterfly)
- At the moment of the conjunction, we may not register much as the movement is taking place behind the scenes. During the 20 years, Jupiter-Saturn sextiles will bring about concrete events that act as bread crumbs guiding us towards our eventual goal (are you listening Don?).
- We are listing the Sabian symbols for these two planets at the moment of this sextile to offer you more clues on what these bread crumbs might be:
  - Jupiter 8° Taurus: "A sleigh on land uncovered by snow." Keynote: The value of anticipating and preparing for expectable conditions; Keyword: Future-Oreinted Imagination
  - Saturn 8° Pisces: "A girl blowing a bugle"; Keynote: A call to participation of the race, as an evolutionary crisis approaches; Keyword: Summons (this is also the degree at which Saturn went retrograde)
Astrology Keynote: The day is defined by the harmonious sextile between Jupiter and Saturn at 11:52AM ET, this is an astrological aspect that will have long-term effect. As the liberating Jupiter joins forces with the limiting Saturn, optimism and good judgement work in tandem and we are also better able to balance work and pleasure. All of this will support us to bring those dreams on the horizon into reality. Get it done early, and wrestle as best you can with the Mercury sesquiquadrate Pluto at 1:37PM ET that could result in irrational thinking/upsetting conversations. Following this, Venus sesquiquadrate Neptune at 4:35PM ET: relationships may be the source of confusion/disillusionment. This evening, the Cancer Moon squares Chiron in Aries at 9:02PM ET: issues could come to a crisis point; finally, we get the Moon sextile Uranus just after midnight at 12:33AM ET: we do not dwell on our wounds for very long.
Happy Juneteenth!
Happy Isis Feast Day!

Tuesday, June 20th, 2023:

Love/Destiny Card: 10♣️ – Mental Accomplishment
Voyager Deck: 10 of Crystals – Delusion
Mayan Signature: 8 ETZNAB White Galactic Mirror - Guided by the Power of Spirit (Kin 138)
- Galactic: harmonize, model, integrity
- White Mirror: reflects, endlessness, order
6:04PM ET: Moon enters Leo (Keywords: expressive, need for recognition, excitement, pride, drama)
Astrology Keynote: We start off the day with a defensive Moon-Eris square at 8:26AM ET. The tension doesn't last long as Moon trines Neptune by 1:23PM ET, a harmonious and generous aspect. One hour later, Pluto trines Ceres, inspiring us to pursue selfless purpose. This combined with the lingering effect of yesterday's Jupiter-Saturn sextile, we may just feel ready to change the world for the better. However, the Moon-Pluto opposition at 5:43PM ET may bring some emotional upheaval just before our work day ends. As Moon enters Leo at 6:04PM ET, we are encouraged to leave all of that behind and have a pleasant evening.

Wednesday, June 21st, 2023:

Welcome to Summer!

Love/Destiny Card: 9♣️ – The Universal Knowledge Card
Voyager Deck: 9 of Crystals – Narrowness
Mayan Signature: 9 CAUAC Blue Solar Storm - Guided by the Power of Vision (Kin 139)
- Solar: pulse, realize, intention
- Blue Storm: catalyzes, self-generation, energy
10:58AM ET: Sun enters Cancer = Happy Summer Solstice!
- In our system, summer is the season of externalization. How fitting that this takes place in the afterglow of the Saturn-Jupiter sextile!
Astrology Keynote: At 6:19AM ET, the Sun quincunxes Pluto as it moves through the final degrees of Gemini: we may find ourselves slipping back into old thought patterns that no longer serve us. This won't last long as the main event today will take place at 10:58AM ET when the Sun enters Cancer and marks the official beginning of Summer in the Norther Hemisphere and Winter in the Southern Hemisphere. This transition is accompanied by no major aspects involving the Sun, setting the stage for a more laid-back season. The stars spell out a day ideal for networking and socializing.There are two supportive Mercury sextiles: first up, Mercury sextiles Mars at 11:22 AM ET inspire us to trust our gut and take a leap of faith; then, Mercury trines Chiron at 9:41 PM ET, assuring us our original ideas have value. We end the evening with a Moon-Venus conjunctions that sets an affectionate and open mood as we spend some time with friends and loved ones.

Thursday, June 22nd, 2023:

Love/Destiny Card: 8♣️ – The Mental Power Card
Voyager Deck: 8 of Crystals – Synthesis
Mayan Signature: 10 AHAU Yellow Planetary Sun - Guided by the Power of Elegance (Kin 140)
Planetary: perfect, produce, manifestation
Yellow Sun: targets, flowering, awareness
Fittingly, the day after Summer Solstice, we are also beginning the second phase in the The Yellow Southern Sun Season of Ripening Enlightenment. Remember, this is the final season in the Mayan Solar calendar and these days are about completion and rewards.
- The guiding intention for the next 20 days is "I am a polar kin, I extend the yellow galactic spectrum"
This is also the last day of the Middle Pillar.
Astrology Keynote: Thursday is a work day. The morning is creative and energetic as the Moon greets several planets in harmonious aspects (conjunct Mars @ 8:41AM ET, trines Chiron @ 9:25AM ET, and sextiles Mercury @ 11:50AM ET). While the Moon does square Uranus at 1:01PM ET, this may still work in our favor by pushing us out of our comfort zone. We end the day with a healing Mars-Chiron trine that may bring us a renewed sense confidence as we look back at the excellent work we have accomplished today.

Friday, June 23rd, 2023:

Love/Destiny Card: 7♣️ – The Card of Spiritual Knowledge

- Spectral: dissolve, release, liberation
- Red Dragon: nurtures, birth, being
6:35AM ET: Moon enters Virgo (Keywords: discriminating, detail-oriented, clean, organize, fixed)
Astrology Keynote: Logic and reason rule Friday. The scene is set as the Moon enters Virgo this morning and is furthered by the Moon-Sun sextile at 10:24AM ET that supports us to ground. However, the Mercury-Jupiter semis-square at 1:27PM ET may cause us to be inflexible and opinionated. The Moon-Saturn opposition at 9:07PM ET offers us a reality check, though it won't dampen our mood for too long, as the Moon-Jupiter trine at 10:52PM ET swoops in and reawakens our hopeful perspective.

Saturday, June 24th, 2023:

Love/Destiny Card: 6♣️ – The Missionary Card (John the Baptist)

Astrology Keynote: The hopefulness from last night is further buoyed by a sextile between Mercury and Eris at 2:40 PM ET that provides us both mental agility and drive. This whole day is filled with heightened energy and we are likely to be working on multiple projects late into the night.

Sunday, June 25th, 2023:

Love/Destiny Card: 5♣️ – The Quest for Truth
Voyager Deck: 5 of Crystals – Negativity
Mayan Signature: 13 AKBAL Blue Cosmic Night - Guided by the Power of Accomplishment (Kin 143)
- Cosmic: endure, transcend, presence
- Blue Night: dreams, abundance, intuition
6:57PM ET: Moon enters Libra (restore balance, relationships, partnerships, cooperative, beautify)
Astrology Keynote: Contrasting with yesterday's mood, today's astrological aspects may leave us confused and drained: at 1:42PM ET, the Moon squares Mercury, leading us to question our recent decisions; an hour later, the Moon opposes Neptune, potentially leaving us feeling disillusioned. We do have a few hours of relief after Moon-Neptune opposition leading up to the Moon-Pluto trine at 6:24PM ET that supports focus and productivity. Get what you need done as the 6:35 PM ET Mercury-Pluto trine may muddle our thoughts again. We should probably just call it a day at this point and retreat into the loving embrace of loved ones as the Moon enters Libra.
