June 2020 is a busy month astrologically across our skies. Change is in the air; cycles are shifting and rebirthing into new energy as new power is rising within. This month we have a stack going on beginning with the Rebirth of Venus. After retrograding across the heavens, she will be reborn… after transitioning from our bright evening star to our morning star.
The rebirth of Venus after her retrograde is a significant point in her cycle. This will also birth a new 8-year cycle creating a new Rose of Venus (more on the Rose of Venus later)
Venus went Retrograde on May 12, slowly disappearing from the night sky. On June 3, she will align with the Sun, reappearing as our morning star.
This Retrograding Venus is a time of heart healing. It is a time where we are drawn inward to clear through the blocks and barriers that prevent us from accessing the love that we are.
The Rebirth of Venus signifies a time where any healing inspired by Venus Retrograde has been completed, making way for our own rebirth.
Friday the 5th of June marks the Sagittarian Lunar Eclipse/Full Moon. This is the 2nd Eclipse for the year and will be visible on the East Coast of Australia.

The Sagittarius Lunar Eclipse is a strong one and will really be pushing us to shake off and remove any layers that have held us back, made us shrink and feel small.
This Eclipse is about stepping into our power and cutting through the obstacles, many of them we have placed by ourselves… it is time to pull out the warrior swords!
On Wednesday the 19th we roll into the second Mercury Retrograde of the year in the watery, soft sign of Cancer. Soothing self-love and self-talk are going to be a theme of this retrograde. Retrograde of regeneration and reboot time!
June has a lot going on energetically but with the retrograding planets slowing things down a bit it will give us time to step back a little and navigate the new heightened energy
The weekend of the 20/21st is the pivotal point of the month and the big turning of the astrological wheel of the year. This weekend we will usher in the Sun shifting into Cancer, The Winter Solstice (Yule) and the Cancer New Moon Solar Eclipse. Kapow!!
She will be a doozy of a weekend. The energy will begin long before, I will post on these three events separately.
The Cancer New Moon Solar Eclipse is a potent & powerful Eclipse and one of the most significant of the year. Only visible in the very most Northern regions of Australia as it is time for South/East Europe, Much of Asia, Much of Africa, Pacific and the Indian Ocean areas for a look.
Have a sticky here to see if you can see it in your area > https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/solar/2020-june-21
Falling so close to the Solstice, this Solar Eclipse will bring a grand rebirth and is said that it will open a portal to a whole new dimension. A brand new dawn is awakening and this Eclipse kickstarts the energy.
The energy around this Eclipse feels very “new world” and will be pivotal for the rebirthing a new way of living.
To top the weekend off we have Neptune Retrograding in Pisces the following day Monday the 22nd. As Neptune enters the underworld, we will have a total of six planets in retrograde.
Neptune is the planet of spirituality, escapism, creativity, and illusion. When it turns retrograde, we are guided on a journey inward, to the deep underwater caves to access our inner wisdom from deep within our souls.
Neptune Retrograde is a very subtle energy so we will feel this more on a subconscious level. It’s shadow work time!
At the end of the month Venus will turn direct in Gemini after her rebirth and begin the dance of the New Rose and Mars will enter his ruler Aries.
Mars changes signs roughly every 2 months but moving into Aries is momentous as that is where he will stay for the remainder of the year. This long stay for Mars is due to its retrograde which happens later on in September.
Mars in Aries is at home, he is the strong warrior here! Tuning in to this energy is going to give us some ninja warrior like energy which we will need we navigate through the rest of the year.
To end the month on June 29th we have an alignment of Retrograding Jupiter with Retrograding Pluto. The Jupiter Pluto alignment is a key feature of 2020 and happens three times. The first occurred back in April and this month brings us the second alignment.
This alignment usually brings up energy surrounding the global financial markets. But on a personal level, we may be drawn to look at our financial situation, or to dive deeper into the energy of abundance, which is so much greater than just material wealth.
Yes, there is lot going on in June just as we are emerging from ISO and begin to step into a new way of living. The Astrology for the month will bring us new energy, some very powerful and some very gentle… subtle but profound and deep. Change is in the air and we have the opportunity to be the change we want to see in this world!
More on these key dates as they come closer! Love and Blessings ♥
