Your Horoscope This Week: 1st To 7th June
There's also a semi-sextile between Jupiter in Gemini (which remains in Gemini for nine more days!) and Uranus in Taurus, adding this buzzy, low-key chaotic energy of 'change is coming, but you can't quite name it yet.' So don't panic if you feel like you're on the verge of something… the astrology's got your back, even if you don't know where it's leading yet. Trust the process.
The cosmic cherry on top is Venus entering its home sign of Taurus on 6th June. Finally, some lush, grounded, delicious vibes after the firestorm that's been Venus in Aries (remember that wild retrograde though?!). Venus in Taurus is a whole mood shift: think romantic picnics, candlelit dinners, sensual skincare, and that slow, intentional kind of love. We're ready for it.
So basically? June is inviting you to slow down, get clear, and prepare for a more rooted, aligned, and pleasure-filled summer. Ready to feel like yourself again? Let's go.
Illustrated by Wenjing Yang.
Aries, we're kicking off June with a cosmic glow up alert! The first quarter moon in Virgo hits your sector of intimacy, merging, and depth, reminding you to check in on the intentions you set during the Gemini new moon last week. Are you really opening up to those next-level partnerships and resources, or are you low-key ghosting your goals out of fear of not being enough? It's okay to admit you're still learning how to let people in without losing yourself.
By midweek, Venus is finishing its fire show in your sign — yup, she's been in Aries for months due to Venus Retrograde, and the lessons have been giving 'love me or leave me.' But with Venus in Taurus entering your money sector on 6th June, it's time to make moves that feel good and profitable. Think: investing in your worth, making bold asks, or finally charging what you deserve. You've been through the fire; now it's time to secure the bag and trust you're worth every penny.
Taurus Sun & Rising:
Taurus, can you feel it? You're so close to your Venusian homecoming you could probably taste it in your morning coffee. But first, let's talk first quarter moon in Virgo occurring early in the week — this is lighting up your sector of creativity, pleasure, and play. Are you letting yourself actually enjoy the process, or have you been grinding so hard you forgot to have fun? The cosmos is whispering: you deserve a little more lightness, Taurus.
Then, get ready for the ultimate vibe shift: Venus, your ruler, enters your sign on 6th June, and it's everything. After months of Venus chilling in Aries and activating your spirituality sector, you're finally feeling more grounded, sensual, and fully you. This is your glow-up season — expect the compliments to flow, your magnetism to spike, and your self-worth to feel like it's skyrocketing. Luxuriate in it. Say yes to what makes you feel radiant and aligned, and let the rest go.
Gemini Sun & Rising:
Meanwhile, Venus, the planet of love and relationships, ends its Aries era in your sector of social connections and collaborations this week, so reflect on the lessons you've learned about who really shows up for you. As Venus in Taurus glides into your spirituality sector on 6th June, you're invited to slow down, tune in, and maybe even say no to plans that don't align with your higher self. The cosmos is asking: are you living on autopilot, or are you choosing a path that actually nourishes your soul?
Cancer, the first week of June is asking you to keep it real with yourself. The first quarter moon in Virgo on 2nd June is activating your sector of communication, and you might feel overwhelmed by all the emails, texts, and conversations flying your way.
Take a pause, breathe deep, and ask yourself: do you really need to respond to everything right now? Gemini Season has your subconscious running wild, and Jupiter in Gemini (just for one more week!) has you swimming in dreams, fears, and memories. If it feels like you're juggling too many storylines at once, that's because you are. The key is to pick the ones that actually light you up — and let the rest fade into the background.
Meanwhile, Venus is finishing up its time in Aries, which has been activating your career and legacy sector. You've been in 'do it for the plot' mode professionally, but now Venus in Taurus (starting 6th June) is reminding you that not all that glitters is gold. Are you building your legacy for the right reasons, or are you chasing validation that won't truly satisfy you?
Once Venus shifts into Taurus, your sector of friendships and community gets lit up — think of it as a cosmic invitation to collaborate with people who actually get you. The vibes are giving quality over quantity, so stop forcing connections that drain you and invest in the ones that nourish you instead.
Leo Sun & Rising:
Leo, you're a whole vibe this week, but it's not just about shining for the crowd… it's about who you're becoming behind the scenes. The first quarter moon in Virgo on 2nd June highlights your sector of finances and self-worth. You're reflecting on the intentions you set during last week's Gemini new moon, especially around who you're surrounding yourself with. Are these connections pouring into you, or are they lowkey siphoning your energy?
Venus is also wrapping up its time in Aries this week, and you've been feeling a surge of wanderlust in your expansion sector. But now Venus in Taurus, starting 6th June, is here to ground you. It's giving 'let me take that dream and turn it into a business plan,' 'let me build a budget for this international trip,' or 'let me turn this fantasy into reality.'
Jupiter in Gemini is wrapping up its 13-month journey in your sector of social networks, so this is the final stretch of you redefining what 'community' means to you. Once Jupiter moves into Cancer on the 9th, you'll feel called to go within more. But for now? Network, pitch, post, and own it. The energy this week is about showing up as your authentic self, not the curated, filtered version. So if you've been waiting to take the leap on something creative, this is your week to do it big.
Virgo Sun & Rising:
Virgo, this week is like the moment in the movie when the main character looks in the mirror and realises how much they've been carrying — and decides to put some of it down. The first quarter moon in your sign on 2nd June is a cosmic spotlight on you, your goals, and your energy. If you've been doing the most trying to keep everyone happy, this week's a reminder that you don't have to.
Gemini season is shining in your career and legacy sector, so yeah, the pressure is on to make moves — but not at the cost of your peace. Jupiter in Gemini is in its final week in your career zone, so it's the last call for big-picture visioning: where do you want to be a year from now, and what's your actual plan to get there?
Meanwhile, Venus is finishing up in Aries, which has stirred up some deep emotions in your sector of merging and shared resources. You've probably been learning who's really there for you, who you can trust, and who needs to be left on read. When Venus shifts into Taurus on 6th June, your vibe shifts too, and things get a little softer, a little more romantic. You're being called to explore, travel, and learn new things, but also to move slower and savour life more. The theme of the week? Less grinding, more aligning.
Libra Sun & Rising:
Libra, you're feeling that post-Gemini New Moon glow, but the first quarter moon in Virgo on 2nd June is whispering that it's time to slow down, reflect, and check in with your inner world. This Virgo moon lights up your sector of spirituality and healing, which means you might feel more introverted than usual — even as the world around you is buzzing with Gemini season energy. It's a great time to ask: Are you balancing your need for external connection with your internal peace? The universe is encouraging you to release what no longer serves you; the more you resist, the harder it feels. And remember, Jupiter's still in its final days in Gemini, so there's still an urge to learn, explore, and expand — just don't overthink it.
Then, Venus — your planetary ruler — wraps up its fiery stay in Aries (in your relationship sector) on 6th June and moves into Taurus, activating your sector of intimacy, sensuality, and merging. Relationships are about to feel more grounded, and you're ready to build something solid and long-lasting. If you've been juggling a 'maybe' connection, the vibes will clarify: Are you in or out? Venus in Taurus wants you to invest your time and energy where it feels good, stable, and secure… no more chasing. You're learning how to let love be easeful, not a performance.
Venus in Aries has been stirring up your sector of wellness and work since April, and as it moves into Taurus (in your relationship sector) on 6th June, the vibes are shifting in a major way. You're ready to get more serious about love, but also about your standards. Who do you allow close? Who deserves access to your energy? Taurus Season taught you a lot about patience in relationships, and now Venus in Taurus is here to reward you for the inner work you've done. Get ready to be pleasantly surprised by plot twists in your love life this week.
Sagittarius Sun & Rising:
Sag, June is starting off spicy — and a bit introspective. The first quarter moon in Virgo on 2nd June is shining a light on your career sector. If you've been coasting, this is the universe's reminder to get your ducks in a row. The Gemini New Moon on 26th May opened a door to new collaborations and relationships, but now you're starting to feel the weight of responsibilities and expectations. Don't panic; this is your chance to get real about your goals and how you're going to make them happen.
Meanwhile, Venus in Aries wraps up its stay in your pleasure sector on June 6th. Did you let yourself have fun, Sag? Or have you been too busy chasing the bag to enjoy the ride? Venus' move into Taurus will help you find more balance — especially in your work-life wellness flow. Taurus energy will stabilise your routines, helping you create sustainable habits that actually support your big dreams. Don't be afraid to say no to overcommitment this week; you've got the whole summer ahead to make it happen.
Capricorn Sun & Rising:
Cap, you're entering June with a quiet sense of determination. The first quarter moon in Virgo on 2nd June illuminates your sector of expansion, wisdom, and adventure. You're feeling the urge to travel, learn, and stretch yourself — but the moon is asking: Have you done the inner work to support those big moves? The Gemini New Moon on 26th May brought fresh energy into your routines, but now it's time to check: Are your daily habits aligned with your larger dreams? Don't skip the details.
Venus in Aries has been activating your home and family sector, asking you to address any lingering tension in your foundations. As Venus moves into Taurus on 6th June, you'll feel more at ease. This is your time to build a sanctuary, whether that's a cosy apartment, a spiritual practice, or a deeper sense of belonging within yourself. Taurus energy wants you to prioritise what makes you feel safe, secure, and steady. You've been strong for so long, Cap… let yourself be soft.
Aquarius, June kicks off with a big reality check. The first quarter moon in Virgo on 2nd June is spotlighting your sector of transformation, intimacy, and shared resources. If you've been keeping your emotions bottled up, this moon is here to remind you: vulnerability is your superpower. The Gemini New Moon on 26th May brought a burst of creative and romantic energy into your life, but now it's time to get honest about what's really going on beneath the surface.
Venus in Aries wraps up its journey through your communication sector on 6th June, so think back: What have you been learning about how you speak up, how you advocate for yourself, and how you hold space for others? As Venus moves into Taurus, your focus shifts to home, family, and roots. It's time to create a stronger sense of belonging — whether that's rearranging your living space or setting firmer boundaries with people who drain your energy.
Pisces, the first week of June is asking you to pause and reflect. The first quarter moon in Virgo on 2nd June highlights your relationship sector, stirring up questions: Who is worth your time, and who are you just entertaining out of habit? The Gemini New Moon on 26th May brought fresh energy into your home and family life, and now you're seeing how those shifts impact your connections. Trust what your body tells you about who feels like home, and who doesn't.
Meanwhile, for several months Venus in Aries has been in your money and values sector, showing you where you've been underestimating your worth. As Venus moves into its home sign of Taurus on 6th June, you'll feel a wave of confidence. Under this transit, your words carry extra weight, and your voice matters — especially in financial negotiations. Get ready to level up how you advocate for your worth, and also take time to prioritise pleasure and play during Venus in Taurus. There's no need to take yourself too seriously.

Virgo Season Is Here — & It's Coming In Hot
The last month of summer is a spectacle. From retrogrades to eclipses, we are leveling up our power and proving that mindfulness and pragmatism are the only useful ways in which to handle matters. We'll be golden as long as we don't second guess our initial responses and use our wits to get us through maddening situations. The days between August 22nd and September 22nd are coming in hot, so grab the SPF and prepare to ring in the next month with passion, flair, criticism, compassion, and perfectionism. What a mix! Before we dive deep into the astrology of Virgo season, it's important to note that the earth sign gives excellent advice and is a loyal friend. You can always count on this throughout the upcoming weeks when times get tough. Understanding that help is on the way is an essential lesson that we all need to acknowledge, since we can also get a little stubborn during this period. If you need a helping hand, reach out to a friend, family member, or loved one, and they'll be eager to assist, even though we might be prideful. Therefore, reciprocation is a must. It's essential to match the energy others provide you with (and vice versa) to keep the good vibes going and flowing. Overthinking is another thing we should watch out for. Virgos are known for their analytical skills, but can be prone to taking the analysis a little too far and ruminating over matters. The Mercurial sign tends to replay situations and conversations, giving others the chance to live rent-free in our heads, so we need to check ourselves when we go down the rabbit hole. This obsessiveness isn't coming from a bad place. We'll want to do good by people and be the best versions of ourselves, which can lead to us trying to be correct and careful in our words and trying hard not to upset anyone. However, we'll also be offended if people don't adhere to the rules we've set for ourselves. The patient and hardworking earth sign allows us to organize and prepare for the upcoming season. As a result, we'll be hyper-focused on restructuring our lives. Making small moves toward progress will enable us to evolve at our own pace. To do so, meditating on The Hermit (the tarot card associated with Virgo) will clarify what we wish to draw into our aura. Since Virgo is pure of heart, we can connect with our true essence to assess what we need. However, the planets are also stirring up some trouble, testing our calm demeanor. The total lunar eclipse in Pisces on September 7th urges us to commit to another. The solar eclipse in Virgo on September 21st allows us to celebrate ourselves. Putting ourselves first is necessary at this time. We are the ones who can design our future. Taking stock of what is important and what is not is a great way to kick off the transcendent energy. Beyond eclipses, Uranus commences its yearly retrograde in Gemini on September 6th. The erratic and rebellious planet will re-enter Taurus, returning to the end of June and early July. Revisiting this timeline means we have another chance to replay situations, work them out and try for a better outcome. Austere Saturn, also retrograde, jumps back into Pisces on September 1st, asking us to deal with the residual drama from the beginning to mid-May. And, yes, exes will resurface bizarrely during these planetary moonwalks. Important Astrological Dates: August 22nd: The sun enters Virgo, bringing forth kindness and empathy. August 23rd: The New Moon in Virgo allows us to reach our goals. August 25th: Venus enters Leo, spicing up romantic matters. September 1st: Saturn re-enters Pisces, pushing us to create boundaries. September 2nd: Mercury moves into Virgo, making communication concise. September 6th: Uranus Retrograde In Gemini begins, redefining our views and ideology. September 7th: The total lunar eclipse in Pisces gets us one step closer to our goals and dreams. September 18th: Mercury finds a middle ground Libra, balancing out the way we express ourselves. September 19th: Venus walks into Virgo, helping us find a realistic perspective to matters of love. September 21st: The solar eclipse in Virgo is an inspiring moment of determination and motivation.

Daily Horoscope for August 19, 2025
General Daily Insight for August 19, 2025 A moody and touchy vibe could leave us unsure where to tread. When the emotional Cancer Moon clashes with impatient Mars, claiming that we've followed the rules might not be enough to prevent hurt feelings. Still, as the warm Sun trines wise Chiron at 1:29 pm EDT, resolution may ultimately come from whatever conflicts burst onto the scene — which are likely about much more than their initial provocations. The Moon goes on to conjoin abundant Jupiter, adding to the potential for optimism. Aries March 21 – April 19 Sharing about an insecurity today could make it less intimidating. Choose your audience carefully — not everyone is equipped to hear you out and provide the validation you crave. Don't worry — as the vibrant Sun in your 5th House of Self-Expression collaborates with tender Chiron in your sign, some will potentially find your experiences relatable. They could have similar worries to share. Although your particular spin on suffering has unique qualities, you're not totally alone. Let that supply the perspective you need. Taurus April 20 – May 20 Retreating from an interaction that isn't going anywhere productive may be a wise move at present. While the volatile Moon in your verbal 3rd house spars with combative Mars in your 6th House of Daily Routines, perhaps someone is only bickering with you because the two of you are getting in each other's way. Don't jump to interpreting the conflict as anything more significant than that — do what you can to take space. You can check in later to see if any issues remain. Gemini May 21 – June 20 You may feel like you have a little extra money to spare. Your first impulse might be to buy something that all your friends have so you can fit in with them. Before splashing out, let this draw attention to any insecurities that you could address. While the illuminating Sun in your communication sector supports sensitive Chiron in your social zone, talking or journaling out your concerns could clarify your priorities. If you still make the purchase, at least you'll know why you're doing it! Cancer June 21 – July 22 Being grateful for the resources you have could shift your perspective today. While the vital Sun in your finance zone eases touchy Chiron in your 10th House of Career, you may be dealing with angst over having a career that somehow doesn't measure up to whatever you were raised to expect. That can be hard, whether or not anyone is directly commenting on it now. If you have enough money to meet your needs, though, that ought to count for something! Leo July 23 – August 22 Being yourself can help you transcend almost any ongoing cultural differences. Yes, certain forces have shaped you, but you are more than that — and so is everyone else you interact with! As the primal Moon in your secretive 12th house starts a debate with clumsy Mars in your communication realm, some hidden sensitivities could be revealed in the course of your conversations. If that happens, simply address the offenses as they emerge, and then move on without dwelling on them excessively. Virgo August 23 – September 22 A direct confrontation could seem unappealing at this time. However, allowing friends to weigh in on a personal drama of yours risks amping up the conflict, even if it results in more people rallying to your side. While the powerful Sun in your secluded 12th house aligns with healing Chiron in your intimacy zone, you're better off trying to work things out in private. Although that probably feels unpleasantly vulnerable to you, consider that your opponent may be in the same boat. Libra September 23 – October 22 You may presently find that you're unable to nurture others in the way they expect and still accomplish what genuinely needs to happen. Maybe you're coming down harder on yourself than you need to, though. As the good-natured Sun in your social sector supports angsty Chiron in your relationship zone, you should talk to someone you trust for a reality check. You can't make everyone happy — and whatever it is, you're probably not the only person who has ever dealt with this challenge. Scorpio October 23 – November 21 Shedding your resentment over a frustrating work or health situation may now be an option. As the vivacious Sun in your goal-oriented 10th house engages with wounded Chiron in your 6th House of Responsibilities, you might be able to see how your suffering brought you closer to finding your life purpose. Of course, you shouldn't be required to put on a smile concerning whatever happened. Being happy about the good parts and sad about the bad parts is acceptable as an honest answer. Sagittarius November 22 – December 21 Putting a personal wound in a bigger context could take away part of its power. While the clarifying Sun in your philosophical 9th house checks in with cranky Chiron in your self-expression sector, you may realize that you're not the only one who grew up with certain unhelpful inhibitions. It's more likely that cultural norms came down hard on pretty much everyone in that regard. Some people might not be ready to open this door, though, so be careful who you confide in. Capricorn December 22 – January 19 Doing something significant all by yourself could seem important today. Under the circumstances, you might be rubbed the wrong way by someone else's efforts to help — their purported love for you may feel more stifling and controlling. As the forward-moving Sun in your intimacy sector interacts with entrenched Chiron in your 4th House of Roots, you'd probably benefit from looking critically at a belief you took on in your childhood. Your current relationship dynamic isn't necessarily the same as the one that shaped you. Aquarius January 20 – February 18 Raising your concerns in a social connection may seem crucial right now. You're probably not just complaining for no reason — it's likely that you genuinely care about improving your connection. Even so, as the attentive Moon in your detail-oriented 6th house agitates pushy Mars in your legalistic 9th house, you might find it hard to discern which issues truly warrant a confrontation. Nitpicking will quickly wear out your companion's patience. Stick to the most important grievances, and leave the petty complaints out of it! Pisces February 19 – March 20 Your financial status might have you worried at the moment. While the impulsive Moon in your speculative 5th house goads brazen Mars in your 8th House of Big Money, a risky investment scheme may be appealing. Through the lens of desperation, however, you'll potentially struggle to get a clear view of the important details. You're better off finding out how far you can get with your own honest efforts to increase your earnings. A positive result could really lift your sense of self-worth!

Your horoscope for the week ending 17th August is bringing productivity and positivity
The week ahead is intense, but in a productive and positive way. Action planet Mars in Libra harmonises with Pluto Retrograde in Aquarius on 10th August, adding dynamism and charisma to our auric fields. The following day, Mercury turns direct, ending the retrograde story that began on 18th July in Leo. Now, we have the chance to mend fences with those we've had miscommunications with over the past few weeks. The same day, Saturn Retrograde in Aries aspects Uranus in Gemini, allowing us to embrace our quirks and power. Venus and Jupiter form a conjunction in Cancer on 12th August, making it a wonderful time for love and sentimentality. Do something nostalgic, like watch a movie that reminds you of your childhood or shop at your favourite old stores in your hometown. Mercury and Mars align on 14th August, giving our words strength and stamina. Venus connects with the Nodes of Destiny on 15th August, urging us to make major decisions about love that will affect our lives for the next few months. The way you express yourself is evolving. You're finding that not having the last word is better than debating the nuances of a discussion. Even if you are right, there is certainty in knowing that. If people want to argue, you should leave them on read until they calm down. There is beauty in the unknown because it allows you to find your true essence. You have time to figure out how you want to grow and what projects suit you. Also, you don't have to sweat the mistakes because they are part of your business and life learning curve. Let's press pause on the drama! You've been rocking around the clock with the theatrics, so it's best to take a moment to unwind and decide if your cause is worth fighting for. You might wish to opt out and hit reset with those you're beefing with to start anew. No one knows more than you about the power of family. Lately, you've been giving your brood lots of attention and affection. However, old issues from your youth are resurfacing, urging you to heal the root of the issue, which could cause tears. Keep the Kleenex close for the waterworks. Finding the perfect moment to say how you feel will be challenging. Therefore, you must create a magical vibe to tell your crush or significant other that you think they're the cat's meow. A lot of love, truthfulness, and heart can bring you the ship you desire as long as you're sincere. Asserting yourself does not come easily, since you never like to rock the boat and hate to cause conflict with others. If you stay in your lane with razor-sharp focus, you can get the promotion and raise you deserve, especially after burning the midnight oil for months to attain it. This is a fantastic week to have your glow-up. You will get noticed at the office, on social media, or in your peer group, leaving you feeling seen and respected. Your insights and wisdom are in demand, allowing you to lean into your fandom amongst colleagues and friends. Go, Libra! Sometimes you get too stuck in your head overanalysing matters. You might find yourself sussing out a situation to catch someone in the act of being shady. The opposite is happening this week, you'll be surprised by their goody two-shoes persona, which will leave you speechless and questioning your investigation. Who says romance is dead? Not you. This week you're levelling up your game and proving to your boo that you are able to show off your tender side. A candlelit dinner for two under the stars or a stroll on the beach will suffice nicely to win their heart. Making amends doesn't have to feel like the end of the world. Being occasionally wrong proves that you're human. No one is perfect, so the less you hold onto that notion, the better you'll be and the more likely you can begin a deeper understanding of those you care about. It seems as though people are not on your side due to their lack of aid when it comes to defending you; however, in reality, they need a chance to get the lowdown and will then offer support. Your squad is just trying to take the best approach for you. If you don't wish to be part of the goss, stop spilling tea about others. Karma is a boomerang, and it'll soon come back at you in full force. Do yourself a favour and dip out of the group text when it gets messy. Dealing with the aftermath won't be fun.
