Monthly Forecast by Lindy Wren

  June, 2001

 

Major changes appear to be occurring within your home environment at present due the influence of a total Solar Eclipse in the sign of Cancer this month. The Eclipse forms in your fourth sector of home and family matters, in close proximity to the North Node bringing fated circumstances.

Whether your home is a one room apartment or a countryside mansion, you may experience a sense of frustration or dissatisfaction there this month. Arians who are disillusioned with their current home surroundings may take the enormous step of packing up house and moving to more suitable conditions. Home will be an extremely important place for the Rams this month, and if their current environment is too cramped, too noisy, or too bland, they will be inclined to seek a new one. With Jupiter edging ever closer to your fourth sector, you seek more room in which to move and spread out your belongings. You wish to create a welcoming atmosphere in your environment and the garden will be an important feature you will look for in selecting or building a home. Alternatively home renovations may take up much of your time this month, and you should use your intuition to guide you as to the right choice of paint colours, flooring, fabrics, etc, as your taste is impeccable at present.

Artistic Venus remains in your own sign until the 7th June, when she glides into the earth sign of Taurus. Those involved in banking or financial fields, or real estate can take particular advantage of this positive time where rock solid ventures of the past will now prove fruitful and you will not be disappointed that you waited.

Venus takes on a very comfortable position whilst in the sign of Taurus and when the Moon crosses her path on the 17th and 18th days of June the giving and receiving of precious gifts will be featured. These are excellent days to bring a new pet into your home, shop for plants or gardening equipment, or dig the foundations for any work that you desire to last.

You may experience a decrease in energies this month. A cold or flu may see you becoming run down and rather lethargic, and you could begin to display some of your more negative traits as a result. You may exhibit a tendency to put people off at times with your sarcasm or bossiness. Control your temper and ensure that you get some early nights, conserving your energies wherever possible. Time will be your greatest ally this month, or your worst enemy. Amidst your busy schedule, make the time for those who are near and dear to you by enjoying closer family relationships and fun times together.

Take care around naked flames or dangerous machinery this month as cuts, burns and scalds are indicated. Some Arians may experience bruising or inflammation to the left ear. This is not a positive time to have your ears pierced or undertake any surgical procedure to the ear area.

Those who hold a position of power should guard against the traits of ego and arrogance this month. With Mars travelling through the sign of Sagittarius in a retrograde motion, difficulties will almost certainly come if you attempt to push your weight around or begin feeling too self confident in your own abilities. Policemen and military officers in particular, should guard against being egotistical in their research or detective work, as they could overlook some vital keys in the absence of humility. All Arians should avoid taking the law into their own hands during the month of June.

The Full Moon on the 6th June occurs in the fellow fire sign of Sagittarius, the sign that hosts your ruler Mars at present. As this Full Moon forms a conjunction to the powerful Pluto and an exact opposition to the Sun, its effects will be amplified this month.

The Full moon phase highlights your dealings with international contacts, overseas travel and all forms of study and education. This is a positive time to begin an educational course or enroll at college or university or make alterations to your subject selection. Teachers may successfully apply for a new job within their current field. Perhaps news of a transfer will arrive around this time.

Mars spins its way through your sector of travel and advanced education throughout the month however it does so in a retrograde motion. During the first week of the month you may experience some flared moments on the working front. Workmates and colleagues will find it difficult to keep up with your fast pace and may fall well behind schedule. Tempers could almost reach boiling point. If you catch yourself handing out harsh orders to employees, take a deep breath and try to calm your nerves. Increase your supply of calcium and magnesium this month. A room spritzer made from a spray bottle of distilled water with two drops of geranium and 4 drops of lavender oil added will help to restore a calm ambience in your office or working environment. To keep your employees on their toes, make up one for their work station with two drops of essential oil of lemon. Their productivity should increase markedly, as will their motivation and decisiveness.

Perhaps the most important feature of the Full Moon phase will be its ability to trigger an intense change in the way that the Aries mind works. A sort of reprogramming process may unfold that will continue through the entire year. In effect this is a freeing up process where things you thought were very important to you in the past, no longer will be. An internal struggle may surface when this influence clashes with the Arian steadfast tendencies. Much of this change process may be stimulated and brought into action by contact with an older person. The Arian may begin to mimic the qualities they see in this person and eventually decide that life would be so much simpler if they could permanently adopt some of these characteristics themselves. The steps you take will be small, however they will be constant. The process will be a slow one and it might not be until the year 2002 when Arians will finally look back over the events of this present time and see how much distance they have actually travelled.

If Arian students encounter difficulties with a teacher or lecturer under the Full Moon phase, perhaps they could try a little negotiation and a lot more listening. If you find yourself talking behind someone's back this will be a good indication that the aspect has gotten the better of you. Confront your teacher directly, and keep gossip to a minimum. It can be like a boomerang that is bound to come back and hit you in the worst possible place.

Arians who have an additional form of income or a second job may find that an increase in salary will feature around the 12th or 13th days of the month. The wheel of fortune may have more to do with this than your own hard work. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth however, and ensure that you don't get too greedy.

Your ruler moves in retrograde motion throughout the month and many Arians will feel as though they are in a state of suspended animation, as the hands of time slow and nothing seems to move as quickly as you would like. Aim to tread water this month rather than strive ahead towards making large advancements. July will be a far more positive time to make definite headway.

Mercury feels quite at home in the sign of Gemini for the entire month of June, however he begins to move in retrograde motion from the 4th June, not turning direct again until the 28th June. Arrange your most important business meetings after the 28th June for the best results.

Jupiter will form an opposition to your ruler Mars on the 13th, 14th and 15th days of the month, the very same time that Jupiter will also form a close embrace to the Sun. Circle these days on your calendar as they will prove to be the most fortunate days of the month for you.
