💫 Ever noticed the more we seem to push others, or be pushed ourselves, does nothing but increase resistance? 

Early afternoon Mars in Leo opposite Pallas in Aquarius: There's a polarity here between imposed limitations on Mars in Leo and a defensive stance regarding freedom by Pallas in Aquarius. The more we push, or are pushed, creates resistance. Defend your rights but allow others to live theirs as well and the waters will quell.  

Late this afternoon, OOB Mercury conjunct Jupiter in Gemini on the anaretic degree. This is an intense degree so we may feel the pressure to complete something or can feel like just "giving up"; however, if we can hang in there, this is actually the degree of mastery and karmic completion.

Sidenote: Those with 29° in their natal chart are typically known as "old souls" and have everything you need to overcome challenges. 

The conjunction between Mercury and Jupiter, particularly in the 9th house, implies a great expansion of what Mercury represents: Intellectual urge, avenue of expression, reasoning ability, healing, travel, and patron of merchants. 

Mercury OOB can also present flashes of brilliance and genius. Combined with Jupiter's expansive nature, we can expect great things if we believe and open to receive.

💫Opportunities masquerade as change & challenges to foster growth. 

Change & challenge are the themes today as Jupiter enters Cancer and Pallas Athene stations retrograde in Aquarius. 

Early morning OOB Mercury in Cancer square Saturn in Aries, if we want to attain our goals and dreams then communicating from authenticity rather than egoism is essential. Don't be silenced but don't force. Believe in your self-worth and allow things to evolve naturally. 

This afternoon through early evening Venus in Taurus square Pluto in Aquarius and OOB Mercury in Cancer square Neptune in Aries. View criticism as a tool for improvement. If we have a strong sense of individuality, we'll fear no loss when confronted by change or difficult challenges. On the contrary, these situations exist for our very benefit and reveal who we truly are and how far we've come. 

Our mental faculties can serve to rise above and recognize patterns and cycles of delusion and/or escapism. Ending them avoids their resurfacing under more difficult circumstances. Focus and a sense of purpose assist our efforts to remain authentic in a world that would change who we truly are.

Early thru midmorning the OOB Moon in Capricorn sextile Vesta Rx in Scorpio trine Venus in Taurus. Relationships ( including the one with yourself ) play a significant role in the morning routine. Reimagine yourself and home. Embellish one or both. 

Prepare or go out and have an extravagant breakfast. Rearrange furniture. Adorn with fresh flowers. Be unpredictable. Have fun!

Around lunchtime the OOB Moon in Capricorn oppose OOB Mercury in Cancer. As both these planets are OOB, it's up to us to formulate our response. We can expect flashes of brilliant insight that we can work toward our wishes and dreams.

Today is History's Dakini Day, or Day of the Goddess. 

Before patriarchy began sinking deep into the roots of civilization, this revered day was known as ‘The Day of the Goddess,’ to pay respect and heed to the Feminine deities, like Venus.

As a symbol of rebirth that females are blessed with, Friday the 13th was a day all for women. In more than one way, the day gives all its glory to the Feminine power.

The number 13 represents the female ovulation period (considered a grand phenomenon as menstruating women are at the peak of their energy and power) because just like 13 lunar cycles a year, women also have 13 menstrual cycles a year.

All the feminine foundations to this day started to shake loose when menstruating women started experiencing shame in society for bleeding every cycle.

The day was to celebrate women and their sexual energy; however, when the patriarchy found its way into civilization, the very day that celebrated women became a symbol of misfortune because of its association with the feminine. 

Even though these newly minted beliefs made no sense as we all possess our feminine sides, not only women, but the target was indeed singular sex.

Contrary to popular belief, the number 13 will bring magic into your life. Many buildings do not have a 13th floor, and some even consider their 13th birthday unlucky. In rare cases, the perceived negative notion of the number can cause triskaidekaphobia, an intense fear of the number 13.

💫 Sometimes we just need to accept a situation we aren't comfortable with so our mind can be at peace to reach for a higher thought. 

👨‍👦Happy Father's Day to all those who have stepped up to fill the role. 

Early morning Mars in Leo square Uranus in Taurus, opening the East Coast with challenge yet opportunity. There's creative confidence with Mars in Leo; however, there's danger of arrogance.

Midmorning opportunity through challenge continues when Jupiter in Cancer square Saturn in Aries. If we can't seem to break free from a melancholic mood, or feel limited in our goals, why not just accept that for the moment so it can bring peace. In acceptance lieth peace, which allows the mind to relax and reach for a higher thought. 

The current moment doesn't dictate forever. 

Tonight, the Sun in Cancer trine Pallas Rx in Aquarius, indicating a warmth and nurturing flow of energy in relation and partnerships. When we trust the intentions of those who care for us, we in turn receive the trust that ensures mutual admiration and respect.
