What’s in the stars for june 2025? Summer solstice is upon us — and good luck is changing signs

Welcome to June, star seeds, and the inspired ethers of Gemini season. What defines Gemini above all else is curiosity — a deep desire to see, chase, and converse with the unknown and the

unexpected. Gemini not only understands but embodies the belief that in the liminal, all things are possible — an optimism that serves us all as we move toward the popsicle sweat and heat

static of summer. On June 9th, Jupiter, our gas-giant planet of good fortune, abundance, games of chance, and inclinations of excess, leaves the lofty climes of Gemini for the embryonic bird

bath of Cancer — for the first time in a decade. Jupiter is exalted in Cancer, meaning the planet is best positioned to express its prowess and generosity. Because Cancer is the sign of the

familial and the nurturing, focus will shift from communication to caretaking, flights of fancy to family in its messy, myriad forms. June 11th brings the full Strawberry Moon in

Sagittarius, imploring us to go somewhere we’ve never gone before, from the micro (dose) to the macro adventure. On June 20, we celebrate the longest day of the year with the Summer

Solstice. This day of days also coincides with the onset of Cancer season — when we are all tasked with examining our root systems to cut away what no longer nourishes, and tend to what

does. Jupiter in Cancer aligns with the sun on June 24th, making it one of the best days of the year to shoot your shot, launch an endeavor or otherwise roll the dice — with the sure

knowledge that the fates are conspiring to bring you more of what you need. On June 25th, the dark New Moon in Cancer arrives. Cancer is ruled by the moon, which makes this the moon-iest new

moon of the year. Cancer also reigns over the fourth house of roots and ancestry. Aptly, the lessons of this lunation are relative to where we come from and what we come home to. With an

open mind, palm, and mouth, read on to see what June holds for you. Read for your sun and rising sign. With Saturn and Neptune moving through your cardinal bonfires, you may feel the push

and pull between duty and dreams, Aries. As the zodiac’s first sign, you are possessed of a singular kind of “little kid” energy, but with these two planets in the mix, you are poised more

than ever to become the kind of mischievous adult that children can aspire to be. Together but not uptight, responsible but not rigid, and fervently putting the fun in functional adult, good

on ya. I recently went sailing with a resplendent Taurus captain. When the subject of competition arose, she shared, “I want to be good, but I don’t need to be better than anyone else.” As

the sun in Gemini highlights your second house of wealth and worth, I hope you will adopt a similar mindset, aiming always to improve but recognizing that being enough does not require you

to be better than anyone, save for who you used to be. Happy return of the sun to you, Gemini! A fellow Gemini and Aussie friend of mine recently shared that one of her countrymen, Ander

Louis, is in the process of translating Tolstoy’s “War and Peace” into “bogan Australian,” a working-class dialect that leans heavy on slang and ain’t afraid to punctuate with expletives.

“Anna Pavlovna’s drawing room was gradually filling” becomes the more casual and colorful, “Heaps of posh wankers were at Anna’s place by now.” In trading language but remaining true to the

story, Louis has managed at once to both draw a new audience to Tolstoy and venerate a looked-down-upon vernacular. You are capable of a similar feat this month, Gemini, able as you are to

wield words to build worlds — transmogrifying the old to new, dated to daring, intimidating to accessible. Hello, Cancer! The sun in Gemini activates the attic of your twelfth house of the

unconscious mind, hidden enemies, and buried meaning. The twelfth house is the house of endings, but from that fade to black comes the slow, steady breath of all that will yet be. My pal,

the artist and double Cancer Timothy Goldskin, has a long-standing habit of collecting lost children’s shoes that he finds on his travels. When pressed, he told me, “I don’t know what it

will be, but if I don’t do it, it will never be anything.” I hope you will adopt a similar conviction of collection this month, Cancer, as Jupiter enters your sign, and you ready yourself

for your solar return and the possibility of anything and all things. Happy cusp of summer, Leo! With Saturn (structure, building) and Neptune (dreams, delusions) in a fellow fire sign and

Pluto (death and reckoning) moving through your partnership zone, change is afoot and the radical is real. The author, yung pueblo writes: “if you measure the length of your ego, it will

equal the distance between you and your freedom if you are far away from yourself, how could you ever be close to another?” I hope you will welcome the summer solstice by closing the gap

with an outstretched hand and purposeful step forward. When discussing art and ambition, my older sister, a brilliant Virgo, admitted, “I want more, but that doesn’t mean I’m not content.”

With the sun in Gemini rising and shining in your tenth house of legacy and career, I hope you, too, will be sated with and grateful for what you have while nursing a patient hunger for

what’s next. Ahoy, Libra! The sun in Gemini shines the headlights on your ninth house of expansion, philosophy, moral code, and how you engage with the strange. In honor of this, I would

like to offer a bit of practical, pocket philosophy from one of your own, to see you through this month and beyond. Fellow Libra Taryn Toomey sagely advises, “When you’re confused, do the

most loving thing.” May you always deliver and receive this ethos. Gemini season activates your eighth house of intimacy, death, resources and regeneration, Scorpio. These are meaty matters,

but you generally do not fear the shadowside or the dark underbelly, regarding it as a source to mine from rather than a door to ignore. For the majority of the month, Venus in Taurus will

be treading the soft soil in your seventh house of partnerships, suggesting that if your excavations are romantic, you could very well hit the rich pay dirt of an enduring, resourceful

relationship. I broke bread with an inspiring and recently divorced artist who has recently opened the door to dating. She told me that she doesn’t practice polishing or pleasantries on a

first date, cutting quick to the bone and always to the heart. She explained, “If I’m too much for someone, they’ll never be enough for me.” As the sun in Gemini raises the chandelier on

your seventh house of partnership, Sagittarius, I encourage you to be your fullest freest self. In doing so, the siren call of the strange will emit from your armpits, a sacred frequency

only heard by others that make their home on the outside — the brave and the dangerous who never shy away from an excess of wholeness. The brilliant astrologer Rob Brezsny takes issue with

spiritual folk who espouse, “I am not my body.” He argues, “This creepy dismissal is an insult and disparagement. It demeans our bodies’ magnificent beauty and besmirches our bodies’ sublime

role in educating our souls,” and suggests we exalt in the body’s “boisterous animal elegance.” As the sun in Gemini highlights your sixth house of ritual, care, and the corporeal form, 

Capricorn, I hope you will take the opportunity to honor your mortal coil not as the animal that separates you from the spiritual, but the wild one upon whose bare back you ride all the way

to enlightenment. The sun in a fellow air sign is an opportunity for you to get wholesomely high, Aquarius. Gemini season kicks down the door of your fifth house of creativity, conviviality,

and the inner child. To access this precious, pint-sized psychopomp, make play a priority. Hang upside down, find a hiding spot, climb onto the kitchen counter, look up twice as often as

you look down. The sun in Gemini activates your fourth house of origin, Pisces. There is perhaps no more loaded word in the English language than “mother,” conjuring as it does a deluge of

associations and activations. Because Gemini season reminds us that we are ever and always not only capable of, but responsible for, rewriting the story we tell ourselves, I offer you the

words of Rumi, “We are born of love; Love is our mother.” No matter your relationship to the woman who brought you to life, I hope you will live it full and free, knowing exactly where you

came from and what you are built for. ------------------------- _Astrologer Reda Wigle researches and irreverently reports on planetary configurations and their effect on each zodiac sign.
