June's First Quarter Moon Is a Huge Wake-Up Call and 4 Zodiac Signs Are Feeling the Pressure
June's first quarter moon is here to put your plans in motion, no more excuses! The phases of the moon reflect the natural rhythms and cycles we experience in life — the way we ebb and flow. Just as the moon waxes and wanes, from a dark, introspective new moon to a vibrant and revelatory full moon, we, too, move through phases of growth, release and for the first quarter moon, this is equivalent to a checkpoint, where the seeds of intention you planted during the new moon are put to the test. It's the phase where things begin to take shape (or break down), and while the energy may be tense, it's an opportunity to clarify your goals and acknowledge the repercussions of your actions. In Virgo, a grounded and problem-solving Earth sign ruled by savvy Mercury, the theme of this month's first quarter moon will likely revolve around practicality, precision and discernment. After all, Virgo thrives in the details, so efficiency and order are a must! This isn't a time to dream or fantasize; on the contrary, it's about setting realistic goals, doing the work and making sure everything is up to par. For instance, if you're someone who's always wanted to write a book or become a content creator, this lunar phase would likely test your level of commitment. Are you being realistic? Are you taking logical steps that contribute to the results you seek? Moreover, with the sun in Gemini, the energy of this first quarter moon could feel like a clash between your heart and mind. While Gemini is curious, inquisitive and communicative, Virgo is preoccupied with the need for order, cohesion and productivity. It's no wonder these Mutable signs are at odds with each other, as they are similar but completely different. The sun and Mercury in Gemini are clever, savvy and mentally agile, but the Virgo moon prefers you slow down and focus on the details. Ready to tackle that messy closet or that workspace overwhelmed with miscellaneous clutter? Whether you're revising an old project or tackling something in your daily routine, this month's first quarter moon will give you the push you need to confront what's been lingering in the background and deal with it once and for all. Read on for what to expect during this lunar phase according to your zodiac sign.

How much work are you willing to put into this passion project, Taurus? This month's first quarter moon in Virgo will light up your heart-centered fifth house of love and self-expression. Whether romantically or creatively, it's time to add more structure to your hobbies, DIY projects and romantic pursuits, even if that includes penciling in more downtime! You deserve to play, too, you know. Is it time to clean house, Gemini? Despite the festivities brought on by your solar season, June's first quarter moon in Virgo is putting the spotlight on your home, family and personal foundation. Translation? It's time to declutter, tend to home-improvement projects and confront all you've been avoiding. Whether it's tidying up your digital files or clearing space to clear your mind, know that you're creating a more harmonious environment. It's a great time to set boundaries or finally make that important call you've been avoiding, Cancer. Being ruled by the moon makes you especially receptive to the lunar phases, and with this month's first quarter moon igniting your third house of immediate surroundings, chances are your smartphone notifications are buzzing and your mind isn't far behind. Still, this moon encourages you to get clear and organized before becoming distracted by the sensory overload. Time to restructure your finances and get on track for long-term security, Leo. As the moon reaches its first quarter phase in Virgo, you're called to take a closer look at everything from your spending habits to your money-making abilities. Budgeting might not sound glamorous, but Virgo's precision can help you pinpoint where you're overspending or not investing properly. If you're in your feels, it's not a coincidence, Virgo. June's first quarter moon is in none other than your Mutable territory, and it's a cosmic Post-it reminding you to act on your goals and dreams. On top of checking in with yourself, this is the moment to implement the plans you've been tweaking.

A little introspection now can lead to a fresh start when you least expect it, Libra. June's first quarter moon in Virgo is igniting your 12th house of closure, dreams and unconscious patterns, nudging you to go within and confront your subconscious patterns. Got a lot on your mind? Whether it be a therapy session or a self-sabotage pattern, don't be afraid to tend to the issues lingering in the darker corners of your psyche. Be honest, Scorpio: Have you outgrown this network or this group of friends? As the moon reaches its first quarter phase in Virgo, it puts a spotlight on your 11th house of associations and sense of belonging in the world. In addition to being a great time to reassess your alliances and eliminate connections that no longer serve your personal growth, take a moment to reflect on your goals and dreams for the future. What actions are you taking toward these personal or professional endeavors? Success is knocking, Sagittarius. Whether in the workplace or regarding an entrepreneurial venture, June's first quarter moon is prompting you to take a closer look at your professional trajectory. This is the moment to fine-tune your goals and get organized. Whether it's updating your resume or scheduling that meeting with a mentor, get your plans in order for the future. Getting those travel logistics in order, Capricorn? This month's first quarter moon in Virgo is highlighting your expansive ninth house of adventure, travel and education, which also serves as a reminder to take a closer look at travel plans or perhaps even revisit that book you started but never finished. It's a good time to tie up loose ends, physically and mentally. Harnessing the current energies will help you make smart, calculated decisions, Aquarius. Reaching its first quarter phase in problem-solving Virgo, not to mention your eighth house of mergers, joint ventures and psychological motivations, it's time to get down to the nitty-gritty of your financial partnerships. Invest wisely. Your relationships are under the moon, Pisces. Tensions rise as June's first quarter moon ignites your committed seventh house of agreements, compromise and significant others. Whether it's a romantic partner or a business collaborator, you're being called to use your discernment when it comes to the balance (or lack thereof) in your one-on-one connections. The goal? Focus on setting clear, healthy boundaries and getting on the same page. Read the original article on People

New moon healing rituals, shamanic medicine wheels and strictly no travel when Mercury is in retrograde... this is how I drive my sceptic husband crazy with my woo-woo ways: SAMANTHA BRICK
As the full moon bathed our garden in a silvery glow last Monday, I sat cross-legged by our fire pit. But I wasn't nursing a glass of chilled Sauvignon or enjoying the balmy evening with friends. Instead, as a devotee of the lunar cycle, I was perched al fresco waiting for May's powerful Flower Moon to release me from all the negative feelings I no longer want in my life. It may sound bonkers to the uninitiated, but I am one of many who believe full moons can bring peace by ending a cycle in our lives, while new moons are for setting new intentions.
