Scorpio June 2016 Horoscope Forecast
by scorpiomystique (Short Version)
The month of June symbolizes the halfway point of the year, and in many ways, this month will feel like you have arrived at a crossroads in your life and personal journey. Once you make it through June, you’ll experience significant milestones in July, and the transformative magic will last throughout Scorpio Season. But before you get to all that, June has many lessons to teach you about love, work, family, health, and self-discipline. Are you willing to learn them?
One of the first lessons you’ll have to absorb is patience, which I know you’re probably tired of hearing by now. Ever since 2016 began it may have felt like all you have been doing is being patient. But there’s a method to the Universe’s madness, Scorpio, and if you can take a breather and trust the process for one more month, you’ll be jumping for joy by the end of the month when your efforts materialize.
The second lesson that the Universe will teach you this year is adaptability. As a Scorpio, you can be quite fixed and unyielding when it comes to achieving your objectives. But this month, particularly during the first three weeks (during Gemini Season), you’ll realize that your tried-and-true methods may need a little revamping. It may be time to come up with new solutions to old problems, and not fear the unknown.
Being more spontaneous and letting go of the reins will benefit you tremendously this month, Scorpio. The New Moon in Gemini during the first week of the month and the Blue Moon in Sagittarius on June 20th will provide you with the impetus and momentum you need to see your life from a fresh perspective. You’ll be focused on feeling more secure within yourself and your relationships, and once that occurs, you’ll make room for miraculous opportunities of expansion and growth to enter your life. It’s time to transcend.
Scorpio Monthly Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope for June 2016
Forecast by famous astrologer Susan Miller: (Long Version)You are almost half way through 2016, and the hardest part of the year is almost behind you. Mars is still retrograde, a frustrating condition that has been going on since April 17, and that will continue to June 29. Mars retrograde affects everyone, of every sign, because Mars rules courage, determination, and drive, as well as the competitive spirit to excel. Without Mars fully awake, it's been harder to stand out and to compete as effectively as you would ordinarily do, to push new ventures forward, and to start new relationships, especially for you, as Mars is one of your two ruling planets.
When any planet retrogrades, it sleeps, and we simply do not have access to its finest energies. That means you have to add that energy, which could feel strenuous. Last month we had five out of eight planets retrograde, but Jupiter has since gone direct May 9, and Mars' brother Mercury turned direct on May 22. A soon as Mars joins the crowd turning direct at month's end, you will see how strongly the pace picks up. All planets need a bit of time to ramp up to their former strength, and for Mars, that ramp-up time will take until August 22. Still, you don't have to sit around waiting for late August - you can act prior to that. Once Mars is direct, you can exhale.
Let's look at the big picture, for there is something to be gained for you here. Due to Mars being retrograde, recently, on May 27, Mars backed into Scorpio, giving you more control over life. After Mars goes direct on June 29, he will continue to tour Scorpio throughout July (to August 2) making July one of your best months of the year. Everyone wants to have Mars in their sign, because it puts you in the lead, and allows you that rare opportunity to have things "your way." You will have a sexy aura about you, and as luck would have it, starting June 17 and continuing until July 12, you will also have Venus in water-sign Cancer, a wonderfully compatible place for Venus to be. As you see you will have the two cosmic lovers, Venus and Mars, in compatible signs - these are the planets that when compatible, start the spark of love.
Put a big gold star on June 27, when Venus in perfect-for-you sign of Cancer will be in ideal alignment with Neptune in Pisces - and Neptune is currently making a very long journey through your fifth house of true love - producing a beautiful day, one just made for with glamour and enchantment. June 27 is a Monday, but you will feel the sparkle from these two planets over your stellar weekend of June 25-26 too.
Socially, you should circulate more from mid-June onward, straight into mid-July. If you want to take a vacation in early July, you will be on-target for fun.
There is another reason to be optimistic - Pluto is your OTHER ruling planet and will send you beautiful beams at month's end, on June 26. I will address that super aspect later, but be cheered by knowing it will be there for you.
Let's start at the top of the month and go through chronologically. I will admit that at the start, on June 2, we have a very difficult, potentially depressing aspect that could make you jittery about money. Saturn will oppose the Sun on June 2, so that would never be a good day to ask for a raise or to even interview for a job. Keep in mind everyone of every sign will feel this aspect, so the person you will be speaking with would be feeling it too, but you won't know in which way. The Sun will be in the part of your chart ruling credit cards, student loans, inheritance, and division of property in a divorce, so these areas will not be at all favored. If you launch a product on this day, June 2, you might wind up losing money on the entire project.
This aspect of Saturn opposed to the Sun might be felt in your personal life, if you have a shared checking account with your spouse - it could come up low or even zero, and you might not know why. Or, you and your partner may not agree about a matter involving money. Be vigilant about identity theft, as this aspect may affect you that way. Or it may be that you expect venture capital funds but find out at the last minute that those funds aren't being wired as promised, when a partner or sponsor / investor suddenly pulls out. These are terribly distressing circumstances. I was thinking of not telling you about how Saturn will be acting up, but then I felt it would be better to know so you won't feel broadsided.
Two days later, the new moon in your eighth house of other people's money will arrive, and Saturn will oppose that moon too, making you quite budget conscious when it comes to taking a vacation, which seems to be coming up in July. No worries - you can find a package that speaks to you. Tuition for college or graduate school might have you on edge as the moon also rules not only distant travel but also higher education. If you are in a court case, don't discuss a settlement on June 2 or June 4, or in the days that surround those dates, as the settlement is apt to be far lower than you expected.
The eighth house, and Mars, both rule all kinds of medical surgery, including dental surgery, so if you have the option, you might want to wait until July or August to schedule your procedure. Don't wait too long as Mercury will go retrograde again from August 30 to September 22. I say if you have the option - if you don't have a choice, and it's an emergency, schedule it immediately!
I have a terrible problem with my eyes, as the steroids I took when I was in the hospital for nearly a month in March 2015 ruined my eyes (the meds helped my ulcers, but oh boy, made me nearly blind). Fortunately doctors can fix my problem perfectly. I am waiting until August 1 to have the surgery (all the doctors I saw only operate on Mondays). Mars and Mercury retrograde have helped me enormously, however. I knew I only wanted to be operated after those two retrogrades were over, so I had plenty of time to interview doctors to see what methods they would use to fix me up. (All agree, we are only doing one eye for now, to see how that goes).
I went to get four opinions and all of them were different, leaving me in a tizzy. All four doctors were some of the very best in New York City, and came with impeccable references from other doctors. However, I loved the last doctor I saw, for he was very detailed and communicative, and his method matched what I wanted instinctively. (I was born with one farsighted eye, and one nearsighted eye, which complicated things, but no way did I want my vision averaged or degraded, as two of the four suggested I do. A new lens has to be inserted in my right eye.) Doctor number 4 did a test that none of the others did, and he said that test result changed everything. I was proven right about much of what I had said (but that the others didn't believe was true). My doctor number 4 asked for my old eye tests done when I was 30 years old. (Mercury retrograde was speaking here.) I got them! My ophthalmologist had them, and my doctor is studying them. Sometimes Mercury and Mars retrograde are your best friends. In the meantime, today I am pulling my hair out because is so darn hard to see. Still I am happy that I am getting closer to August 1 when hopefully, my sight will change for the better.
We feel retrogrades of planets that orbit closest to earth the most - Venus, Mars, and Mercury. Venus is in fine shape right now and is not going retrograde any time soon. Mercury, as said, already turned direct in May, and Mars will turn direct on June 29. I am happy that Jupiter, the great healer, just went direct too on May 9, and will stay that way until February 7, 2017. Even though Jupiter is an outer planet that we don't feel as directly, we do feel his presence. Having Jupiter direct too is a plus when contemplating important surgery. There are other factors when choosing a date, too, so it's always wise to consult an astrologer if you have the option to schedule your surgery.
Now let's turn to the full moon in Sagittarius 29 degrees, when you have another emphasis on money. This time the full moon will light your second house of earned income, while the new moon of June 4 will energize your eighth house of other people's money. These are the two financial sectors of your chart. Last month, on May 21, you also had a full moon in Sagittarius, in the very same house, different degree, so it appears the emphasis has been on money for weeks. Last month may have represented Part 1 of your financial decisions or actions, and this full moon, June 20, will bring Part 2. This full moon will bring to an end financial talks, and it appears, you may see money come in unexpectedly, for Uranus, now based in your sixth house of work projects, will be beautifully oriented to that full moon.
All month we will have what is called a Grand Mutable Cross in the sky, which means planets are not due to get along with one another. The Sun, new moon, and Venus will be at 90-degree angles to Neptune, as well as Jupiter, and 180 degrees from Saturn. This forms a box pattern where tension is hard to be released. There are three kinds of cross patterns: Cardinal Cross, Fixed Cross, and Mutable Cross. This is a Mutable Cross because all the heavenly bodies involved will be mutable signs: Gemini, Sagittarius, Virgo, and Pisces. The Mutable Cross is the easiest of the three kinds to fix. Mutable signs are flexible and open to other's views, and they love to talk. The way out of any briar patch that you might find yourself in is to act like a mutable sign - talk and negotiate your way out.
There will be no more full moons affecting your finances for a year. Saturn has been spending a lot of time in your second house of income and savings (since the better part of a year-and-a-half) however, making you more thrifty than usual. If you've tried to get a large raise in salary from your employer, or if self-employed, to raise your prices or fees, you may have been able to see an increase, but not as much as you hoped to see. After December 2017 next year, your entire financial picture will change, and assuming you continue to work hard and smart, lots of money will finally begin to flow your way. All that you are doing now will count for something big.
In regard to home-related matters, if you have to sign a lease, buy or sell property, find a new roommate, are decorating your apartment, want to schedule repairs, or do anything else home related, you will have your chance. You will love the opportunities that come up over the weekend of June 11-12, and including Monday, June 13, for these are super days to search for answers. Uranus will be smiling at the Sun, bringing surprises, breakthroughs, and all sorts of luck and happiness. If you want to help a parent for any reason, this weekend would alternatively bring options on that matter too.
Now, in closing I will address the gorgeous and very exciting alignment between financial powerhouse Pluto and Jupiter, giver of gifts and luck. This will happen on June 26, but you will also feel it in the days that approach this day, and the ones that follow. Pluto, one your rulers, is in your agreement / contracts solar third house, so you may be signing a contract or shaking hands on a deal that has huge future potential. Everyone will love this day, but you may love it more than other signs, for Pluto is one of your two rulers.
This aspect tends to spell success in all business dealings, provided you did your homework in advance and don't act impulsively. This is such a fantastic aspect because it is rare - we won't see anything similar until 2020, and that will be a conjunction. (October 2018 has something a bit weaker, but nothing like this month's alignment.) The third house, where Pluto is located, also rules travel, so you may be visiting a client for a face-to-face meeting, a good idea. If you have the choice of signing on June 26-27, or waiting a few days, I would suggest you go beyond the date that Mars goes direct, June 29. I particularly love July 1, when Venus and Jupiter will trade signals. Pluto and Jupiter are exceedingly slow moving planets, so both will still be close enough to be significant. If you recall, I mentioned at the start of your forecast that you may be a bit jittery about money due to the new moon of June 4. This lovely aspect involving Pluto's support of Jupiter, coming June 26, is special. The seed you plant at this time could bloom brightly - see what comes up.
Summary
Money is on your mind, and you want a raise in salary, or if self-employed, to increase your fees or profits, and the new moon June 4 will provide you a window of opportunity. The glitch is that this new moon will be flawed. As convincing as you may be when you present your case for why you deserve a raise, your employer or client will only give you very little, if any at all. If you cannot get the decent raise you are aiming to get, it will not be due to your past performance - it's the tight budget. If you apply to other sources of income, you will encounter a similar situation, for Saturn is putting a lid on your ability to earn generous amounts of money this year.
Saturn, the teacher planet, is currently touring your earned income sector; a trend that started December 2014 will end in December 2017. This is a rare but very noticeable visit that comes by every 29 years. These days, Saturn will teach you how to get more value from the money you earn now, encourage you to cut waste and to find bargains. Saturn will also show you how to be more persuasive when presenting your case when you want a raise. If you are self-employed, you will learn how to gracefully raise your fees and how to ask clients for the money they owe you (but haven't sent yet). Saturn will also show you how to negotiate more effectively when you are forging a deal.
Even though the new moon in your eighth house of other people's money is not well aspected, you nevertheless need to make it work for you. If applying for a job, you might be able to get sterling benefits, like fine health insurance or the key to the executive gym. Perks like these would be quite expensive if you had to pay for them entirely yourself. This new moon will also give you the chance to apply for venture capital, put in a claim to an insurance company, and to ask for your bank for a loan or mortgage. However, you will have to be sure your paperwork is perfect when you send it in, as you will receive a denial if the person looking over your application or business plan spots errors or inconsistencies.
Saturn will oppose this new moon, so you won't likely be able to secure as favorable terms as you want, but you may be able to get part of the funds you need. All the zodiac signs go to Saturn's boot camp at some point in Saturn's travel around the Sun, a period that takes 29 years. This is your time to learn about money, and to value yourself and your contribution to the world to a greater degree.
Mars, your ruler, has been retrograde since April 17, and will finally end its backward motion this month on June 29. Mars is the planet of passion, courage, and drive, so when Mars sleeps, as he is now, projects will slow down, and decisions will be harder to obtain. Mars has retrograded back into Scorpio at the end of May, to say through early August, making you feel like you need to take the reins and press forward with authority to get projects launched instantly. Don't make a move in June. You'd do best to stand back and wait until July, when the prevailing environment will be far more conducive for success.
Venus will move into a beautiful position for you to enjoy love from June 17 until July 11 while it tours Cancer. Use that time to buy new clothes, have your stylist make suggestions on a new way you wear your hair, and then step out and enjoy life. The weekend of June 26-27 should be especially beautiful and glamorous, so plan something special and ultra-romantic. No date? Go out with friends, put something on that makes you feel desirable and special, and see what happens.
