All in Fire Signs

June 2022 Horoscope: Sagittarius

Relationships of every stripe are a big focus this June, from deep commitments to passionate summer seductions. With the Sun moving through Gemini and Cancer, the most intimate parts of your chart are in the solar spotlight. Out of necessity, you may need to lean on your most supportive people, which, for your independent sign, isn’t always natural. While it can feel vulnerable to receive, we recommend breathing through the discomfort. Your life will be all the richer when you allow others to contribute to you, Sag!

While there’s a serious tone to this month, June offers up plenty of fun and creativity as well. Your ruling planet, Jupiter, is spending its first full month in fellow fire sign Aries, heating up your passionate fifth house of romance, glamour and fame. If you spent the first half of 2022 in a rare homebody state, get ready to flip the script between now and late October. Circle June 14, the year’s only Sagittarius full moon, as your cosmic coming-out party. Don’t be surprised if the spotlight finds you fast!

June’s cosmic lineup energizes a feeling of connection. But you’ll probably slip behind the scenes again a bit starting June 21, when the Sun moves into Cancer and your private, intimate eighth house. Spend the next month prepping everything behind the scenes, and you’ll be ready to make a big Sagittarian splash when Leo season starts on July 22. From there, it’s game on!

Two of the slow-moving outer planets begin their annual retrograde (backward) turns this month. On June 4, mature Saturn starts a five-month reverse commute through Aquarius and your communication zone. Talk less, listen more and take time to craft your message. When emo Neptune starts its annual retrograde on June 28, you’ll feel its reversal in your Pisces-ruled home and family zone. Between now and December 3, be sure to install loving but healthy boundaries with relatives and roommates. You may feel healed by spending time near water, especially if it’s a favorite old vacation spot. Prepare for a few surprising waves of nostalgia and make an effort to reconnect with cherished family members you haven’t seen in a while.

June 2022 Horoscope: Leo

Now that’s more like it, Leo! You’ll soar (make that roar) into June riding high, even if you’re navigating some turbulence from May’s eclipse season. Your natural optimism is returning to its irrepressible levels. For that you can thank lucky Jupiter, which bounded into your no-limits ninth house on May 10 for the first time since 2011. After an intense start to the year—which may have felt a lot more private and insular than your usual M.O.—that Leo radiance will meet the world as its oyster. With the Sun in Gemini and your social eleventh house, your event-planning skills can be pressed into immediate service.

Save the parades and sparklers until after June 3, when messenger Mercury will be wrapping up its three-week retrograde, a dodgy time for communication that also began on May 10. As Mercury corrects course, you’ll find a more receptive audience for your grand plans and visions. Got a giant splash to make? The June 14 Sagittarius full supermoon says “lights, camera, Leo!” when it beams into your head-turning, passionate fifth house.

The key changes a little after the June 21 solstice, when the Sun sinks into Cancer and your restful twelfth house. Spend the next four weeks tying up loose ends and conserving your energy for Leo season, which arrives on July 22. Relationship repair could also be in order for the next five months as structured Saturn and healing Neptune both turn retrograde in the most committed parts of your chart.

Note to Leo: Don’t try to do it alone! Saturn rules qualified experts while nurturing Neptune governs the empathic realm. Get recommendations from friends before you hire a therapist, advisor, consultant or the like. Think: A compassionate coach type who will tell it like it is but won’t beat you up for your past missteps. You don’t need to be coddled, but you DO deserve someone who will support you and cheer you on being your highest self. Hey, why not hold everyone in your life (including yourself) to that standard?

June 2022: Monthly Horoscope Overview

After the tumult and chaos of April and May, we’re all ready for a cosmic cool down. Luckily, June is here to deliver just that! Usually Gemini season is a blur, but this year, it’s the comic relief that we so desperately need. Mercury ends its retrograde on the 3rd putting our communications back on track, and then on the 4th Saturn begins its own retrograde, allowing us to take a break and reflect on long-term goals.

Things are slow until mid-month when Mercury re-enters Gemini on the 13th stoking our curiosity and increasing our stamina for socializing. Then on the 14th, the full moon in Sagittarius brings us a wild and adventurous night to kick off the warmer months with a bang.

The summer solstice arrives on the 21st as the sun enters Cancer. Happy birthday to our protective and loving crabs, in good company with matriarchs like Meryl Streep and dreamy trendsetters like Lana Del Rey. Venus then leaves sensuous Taurus for witty Gemini on the 22nd, inspiring us to find summer flings who really stimulate our minds.

June ends with a highly auspicious new moon in Cancer that connects with both Venus and Jupiter. If there was ever a time to set nurturing and optimistic intentions, this is it! Neptune stations retrograde on the same day putting a dreamy filter over a once dull reality. Dream big!

June 2022 Horoscope: Aries

Come out, come out! June marks the first full month that lucky and expansive Jupiter is in Aries, kicking off a new 12-year chapter of your life. When communication planet Mercury ends its three-week retrograde on June 3, cut the ribbon on your reinvention tour and start crowing your message from the rooftops!

With the Sun in Gemini and your connective, clever third house until June 21, you’ve got the floor, Aries. Rally some kindred spirits to your side. The June 14 Sagittarius full supermoon can help teleport your message to a global platform. Teaching, entrepreneurship and travel are especially highlighted mid-month.

Two slow-moving outer planets turn retrograde this month: Saturn (June 4) and Neptune (June 28). While you’re out shaking hands and kissing babies, you might also pull back from draining or toxic people. When the Sun slips into Cancer and your cozy fourth house for a month on June 21, spending a little more downtime off-grid will keep you refreshed and rested for the steady public demands of Jupiter’s tour of Aries through late October.
