Still in The Construction Zone, but at Least We're Moving Forward
Daily Horoscope for Monday, June 13, 2022
Well, we have the Sun here at 22 degrees of Gemini today and the Moon just came into Sagittarius last night and is going to oppose the Sun by tomorrow morning for the Full moon.
We’re going to feel like taking a step back and looking at the bigger picture of where we’re going—the Moon in Sag wants adventure, wants to expand our minds, and broaden our horizons, but with the Sun in Gemini it’s a time when we need to stay curious about life, continue to collect the data that supports the truth and the reality of what we’re going through, and focus on the basics.
After this weekend, with the Venus/Uranus conjunction and the moon opposing that conjunction in Scorpio, some things may have come up that were really intense and we could feel a little raw, emotionally.
This Full moon energy that is building today—I mean the moon will look full tonight, even though technically she’s not full until tomorrow—could be intense. It could feel like we are at the top of a wave and it’s all about to come crashing down. And it’s like, it’s cool to get this bird’s eye view from the top of the crest, but it can also be scary because we can see how far we have to fall if we lose our balance and we are just barely staying up here!
Mercury also moves into Gemini today and this will feel better than the last month or so when Mercury was retrograde and moving slowly through earthy stubborn Taurus—we will finally feel the momentum pick up! The communication lines begin to open up as Mercury gets faster this week.
It could feel like we were stuck behind a barricade, waiting for the traffic guy to move the blocker and turn the sign around from ‘Stop’ to ‘Go’ (which he did a few days ago when Mercury went direct, right?), but now— as we’ve been driving slowly through the construction zone, we can finally see the end of this section of road! Mercury is only 4 degrees away from where he went retrograde weeks ago—so, we are almost out of this roadwork!
We are so close…we just want to speed up and drive at normal speed toward the exit, but we can’t! There are HUGE fines for driving fast through a construction zone and there are construction workers, whose lives could be in danger if we are hasty and reckless. But, man do we want to! With this new vision, this view of the future, this freedom that we can almost taste in the air, we just want to put the pedal to the metal!
Today, and for the next few days, we are going to feel this sense of anticipation as we get nearer and nearer to this threshold.
I guess the only advice I can give during this time is to have patience—keep trusting in the divine timing of things and remember the North Node is in Taurus, so even though we want to speed forward, “slow and steady wins the race,” needs to continue to be our motto during this time.
You can’t force a garden to grow. It’s like my kitchen garden, for instance, my little tomato plants are starting to grow tiny green fruits—and last night I so badly wanted to be able to go outside and harvest some lettuce and tomatoes for a salad to go with our dinner, but it’s not time yet.
I can see it coming! I can see these cute little green fruits growing and I know that tomatoes are in my future, but there’s nothing I can do to speed up the process! The best course of action for me is to keep watering and weeding, and patiently waiting. The harvest time will come. And inevitably, there’ll be so many tomatoes we won’t be able to eat them all fast enough!
So, keep watering and weeding your life. Say ‘yes’ to the things that make sense and support the future that you can see, and say ‘no’ to the things that seem hasty or too fast and will actually cause issues in your life. Know that the natural order of things is at work here and the divine timing will be right.
Let’s pick a card:
III The Empress
Let your heart lead the way today. Trust your senses and relax into them. Love on those around you and love on yourself. Be gentle and kind and sensitive to yourself and others. Let your nature to nurture come out and be the focus of your actions today. After the weekend we had, we could all use a little mothering. Hold yourself today, like a mother holds her baby: with love, affection, and attentiveness. Everything is going to be alright.
The Empress as the card today is also reminding us to get in touch with our creative, artistic side and use this energy to ground ourselves through painting, sculpting, writing, drawing, dancing, making music, etc…
I hope this horoscope and reading are helpful!
