General Daily Insight for June 15, 2023
Getting our ideas across might require extra effort at the moment. The Moon in Taurus starts out with an exciting conjunction to rebellious Uranus, encouraging us to surpass our traditional boundaries, but the square between mental Mercury and no-nonsense Saturn at 12:09 pm EDT will make it nearly impossible to say what we mean. The Moon will then trine Pluto, cranking up the intensity. Thankfully, our moods should lift when she slips into Gemini, unknotting and smoothing over the tangles of our thoughts.
Aries
March 21 – April 19
Your inhibitions could loom larger than normal. Chatter is encouraged while Mercury tours your 3rd House of Friendships, but that conversational energy gets upended as the cosmic communicator squares off Saturn in your subconscious sector. This combo could leave you feeling off without knowing why, or it may rake up old issues that leave you less than willing to share. It’s perfectly fine to focus on your own issues for the moment. Take time for yourself; you can return to everyone else tomorrow.
Taurus
April 20 – May 20
An idea that seems brilliant to you may not strike everyone else as totally viable. You’ve potentially got your mind on money as Mercury flies through your 2nd House of Income, inspiring numerous fresh ways to improve your revenue stream. On the other hand, Mercury’s severe square to icy Saturn in your group-focused 11th house likely won’t result in the support you may be hoping for. Hold off on any big reveals for a few days, until others are more receptive to your genius.
Gemini
May 21 – June 20
There’s a fine line between saying your piece and overdoing it today. Words may be spilling out of you as loquacious Mercury visits your sign, but its tough square to Saturn in your 10th House of Reputation will require you to keep your words clear and concise. A light-hearted approach will likely work against you! Show people how professional and reliable you can be by saving the jokes for another time when you can kick back and let your fun side out to play.
Cancer
June 21 – July 22
Deciding which direction you wish to take won’t be easy at a time like this. There’s a conflicting square between Mercury in your fantastical 12th house and Saturn in your expansive 9th house, creating a twisting, turning labyrinth of options that all seem enticing. Mercury isn’t currently operating in reality, but Saturn wants you to pick a path and stick to it, so you may come up with lots of possibilities without much real progress to show for it. Avoid dashing off without a plan.
Leo
July 23 – August 22
Something could dampen this otherwise pleasant day for you. Grouping up with pals might sound tempting as Mercury flies through your social 11th house, but your desires may speedily shift when the messenger planet picks a fight with Saturn in your intense 8th house. An important matter could rear its head and demand you deal with it when you’d rather be off enjoying yourself — you likely won’t be able to avoid it. It would be wiser to face things directly.
Virgo
August 23 – September 22
Someone might be standing in the way of your success, even if they don’t mean to hold you back. You’re focused on working your way up the ladder as your ruler Mercury visits your 10th House of Success, but its rough square to Saturn in your partnership sector could result in a partner of some kind throwing up a barricade when you’re absolutely ready to leap ahead. It may be best to handle things on your own today, but don’t burn any bridges doing so.
Libra
September 23 – October 22
Get ready to be brought firmly back down to earth. You’ve got an eye for flying far and wide as Mercury zips through your adventurous 9th house, but your most basic chores are going to block the runway when Mercury squares Saturn in your responsible 6th house. Put your plans on ice for the time being — instead, roll up your sleeves and tackle what’s in front of you! After you’ve checked off your list, you can get back to breaking barriers.
Scorpio
October 23 – November 21
You may feel torn between putting everything out there and holding everything back. Mercury in your deeply private 8th house is arguing with Saturn in your expressive 5th house, so it could seem like you’re being forced to show something off before you’re ready. If you’ve been working behind the scenes on an important project, bringing it into the spotlight could be rather uncomfortable. Remember: your work is strong enough to speak for itself! You have earned the right to show off.
Sagittarius
November 22 – December 21
A matter on the home front may derail any other plans you’ve got going. The people in your life take top billing as Mercury moves through your 7th House of Relationships, which is great for forming powerful partnerships and great groups! Unfortunately, Mercury is squaring Saturn in your 4th House of Foundations today, so something under your own roof might take precedence over others. Don’t be shocked if you have to drop everything to deal with this — better to do so now than never.
Capricorn
December 22 – January 19
Life could feel riddled with potholes at this time. Mercury is flying through your 6th House of Routine, aiding your work on every duty in front of you. That said, Mercury’s square to Saturn in your 3rd House of Community could make it impossible to get anything done in a timely manner. Perhaps people keep distracting you, or you have trouble with transportation, or there’s simply a miscommunication about what is supposed to be happening. Keep your cool and only tend to the essentials.
Aquarius
January 20 – February 18
Everything is fun and games — until you have to pay for every current activity. Fun is your number one priority while Mercury moves through your 5th House of Luck, so you probably don’t have your mind set on much besides enjoying yourself. Still, when Mercury jabs at strict Saturn in your income sector, remember not to overdo things in your search for excitement! It’s fine to run wild, but check both your bank account and any price tags before taking off at full speed.
Pisces
February 19 – March 20
You may feel rather serious at present, even if you normally prefer to take things as they come. An uncomfortable square between Mercury in your emotional 4th house and Saturn in your own sign could make it feel like you’ve received some cosmic homework. Instead of feeling bogged down, use this to tackle any complicated matters you may have been avoiding. Saturn is here to help you face them! It may not be the easiest task, but the progress should be worth it.
