Lunar Return

Astrology can provide many valuable panoramas as you move through this world, from a lifelong overview to the snapshot of the opportunities available in a single instant. The view you get depends upon how far back you pull from the subject and thus how much your eye, so to speak, can encompass. In the words of the Sesame Street song:

  • That's about the size,
  • Where you put your eyes,
  • That's about the size of it.

It's all in how you frame your picture. The closer to the subject you get, the greater the detail - the farther away, the larger the scope. The natal horoscope with its transits and progressions can, for instance, give you a view of all the days of your life, painted with a broad brush. Or, the sweep of the heavens in the instant of the moment can portray where you're at right now. In the middle, the pictures of the coming month or the coming year are available to you in the form of lunar (monthly) and solar (yearly) returns.

What Is A Lunar Return?

Your Lunar return is the monthly chart of the instant the Moon in the sky returns to the exact position it was at your birth. It's kind of a monthly birthday, and the arrangement of planets it displays reflects the patterns of your coming month. Each month, this re-birth-day works out its potential for you and then is renewed once again 27 1/2 days later with a new set of surprises and opportunities.

How Does It Work?

Like your natal chart, or any other kind of horoscope, a Lunar return is a chart of a beginning - in this case, the monthly beginning of the lunar cycle that started at your birth, which is the cycle of your response to your environment, including your emotions, feelings, interactivity, social well-being, and generally how creatively you react to the challenges and opportunities of life. It works on the principle that when you begin something - anything - everything that flows from it is bound up in the initial conditions under which it started. The beginning is your foundation, and you build and rest upon it until you are finished. A Lunar return is the astrological depiction of the new beginning you make each month and what results from it until the next cycle begins.

Well Begun Is Half Done

"The beginning is half of everything," said the ancient Greeks, and so your monthly beginning is something to be taken seriously and honored, if you want your lunar month to have a good start. Thus, give yourself a little time and space to rest and meditate if you can in the few hours surrounding the time of your Lunar return each month. Take the time to think about what lies ahead, plan your strategies, and gather your resources so you can make the best of what's offered. Look over the aspects in your Lunar return chart and the days and times ahead where they individually kick in. Once you've got a calm picture of the challenges and openings to come, you can rise to seize the day, one moment at a time, and make the most of the month

Changing The Picture

The planetary positions in a Lunar return are locked in at the moment the Moon returns to its natal place. Where these positions fall in relation to the local horizon, and thus the areas of life in which they work, is entirely dependent upon where you are at the time. Thus, if you see that your Lunar return is going to develop a picture you'd like to rearrange, that can be accomplished by placing yourself at the right spot on the globe to fine-tune the event. Many astrologers travel widely in order to adjust both Solar and Lunar returns - I have done so repeatedly over the last 35 years with apparent great success, so I recommend it when necessary. Moving about extensively every month is not easy for everyone, but being aware that it affects the Lunar return is a plus if you normally travel on business and have some say as to where.

Pieces Of The Puzzle

The Lunar return is a large piece of the astrological picture of what happens with your life every month, but it is not the only one. Lunar transits, New and Full Moons, and other factors also weigh in, so they have been included in this report so you can have a more complete picture of what to expect and what you have to work with. You should remember, however, that factors whose timing is as short as a monthly cycle are more like the minute or second hands on your life's clock face. Don't forget to stand back every now and then and refresh yourself with the big picture of where you are and where you're going, which are described by long-term transit and progression cycles. After that, you can get back down to the day-to-day nitty-gritty which the Lunar return offers and know that your focus is tracking and every moment is enjoyed and utilized to its best advantage.With that in mind, read on and launch yourself into the coming month with the wind at your back and the planets racing by your side...

Lunar Return

Your Lunar Return Chart This Month

Your Lunar return can be read in a manner similar to many other types of horoscopes, except that in doing interpretations it must be kept in mind that it has an unusually short life. The chart is only in effect for 27 1/2 days until it is supplanted by the next Lunar return. Thus, where the middle and outer planets are concerned, there is little or no change of sign over literally dozens of Lunar returns. This makes the overall influence of signs more of a long-term, barely changing backdrop and thus negligible in effect. The house placements and the mutual aspects of the planets and Angles thus become where all the action is, fueled mostly by the faster-changing positions of the inner planets. That may be just as well, as trying to stuff too much interpretive information into a description of a single month leads to diminishing returns, and what is important gets lost in the shuffle. So what is most important in a Lunar return? Certainly the house positions of the Sun and Moon, and the sign of the Ascendant, which represent the main areas of focus for the month, along with the house positions of the planets. After that comes the aspects of the Lights, Angles, and inner planets to each other and to the middle and outer planets, which describes the dynamics of the month. Last comes the aspects of the middle and outer planets to each other, which provide a background dynamic upon which the rest play out. These, taken together with featured elements of your natal chart highlighted by Lunar Return positions, give an overall picture of the coming month.

Daily Events

After a look at the overall picture for the month, daily influences are painted primarily by the transiting Moon as it passes through the natal and Lunar return houses and ticks off its conjunctions to planets in both the natal chart and the Lunar return chart. This accounts for 47 occurrences, each of which happens once, in varying orders, throughout each month. As the Moon transits the houses and planets of the natal chart, it triggers events that are both personal to the moment and yet connect with more long-term issues as well, since the natal chart abides permanently. As the Moon touches the houses and planets of the Lunar return, however, its effects are to highlight and spark off the trends depicted in that chart only, and thus apply only to very short-term developments. These Lunar transits thus give what amounts to inner and outer pictures, short-term and longer-term effects working together, both of which are described in the text.

Personal Void-of-Course Moon

One final, and very useful, addition is the Personal Void-of-Course Moon. The period of time every 2 1/2 days when the transiting Moon has made its last aspect to another body in the sky before changing signs is described as a Void-of-Course Moon period. It can last from a few minutes to over a day, depending how late in signs the planets are at the time. Because the Moon at this time doesn't really have its "feet on the ground," is generally considered a period unfavorable for tangible decisions that require solid support, but an excellent time for insight, relaxation, and reaching outside of confining boundaries. Many astrological calendars include a monthly list of these times. If you have natal planets late in one or more signs, however, an ordinarily Void-of-Course Moon may still be making aspects to your chart, allowing you a special exception from the rule and giving you a decision-making advantage at this time. Conversely, if your planets are mostly early in signs, then for you the Moon goes Void-of-Course sooner than for the rest of the world, allowing you to check out and party early, while others are still in a more mundane frame of mind. Thus, included here is a list of your own Personal Void-of- Course Moon times unique to you alone, in order to give you a very specific personal advantage. They each begin when the Moon makes its last aspect to your chart and end when the Moon enters the next sign.

Lunar Return

As in a natal chart, the first thing you look at is the position of the Sun, Moon, and Ascendant. Their positions and aspects form the fundamental dynamic for the month: whether it's coming on like a juggernaut, sneaking up like a cat, stumbling in like a bull in a china shop, or striding in like a hero. Since the Lunar Return Moon is the same as your natal Moon, any aspects to it are also transiting aspects to your natal horoscope, thus uniquely entwining both charts and making the Lunar aspects especially important. The house position of the Sun and Moon tell you where your main action will be all month, and the Ascendant sign show the overall style. Easy aspects of these to the rest of the chart will show a month whizzing by according to plan. Hard aspects will indicate tangles and challenges to overcome. The text relays how to make the most of the former and how to transform the latter to get best results from the month.

Sun

It's not so much what you do but what others can do for you that will key this next lunar month. It's time to put your ego aside and let partners at home and work take the helm and steer for awhile - you'll be surprised where you end up. Rolling with this feeling will allow you some time to tend to your inner self while the outside is handled for you, so lean on your allies and praise them for what they accomplish, as what they do credits not just them but you and your association with them. This is a time partnerships of all kind can flourish if you throw yourself into the effort and lead with your heart.

Sun in Seventh House

The feeling you can get away with anything may be more accurate than you think this month, as energy flows easily in leaps and bounds and obstacles that might ordinarily be in the way are either swept aside or not there to begin with. The Sun reinforcing your natal Moon lends you the quiet emotional confidence that you are up to the task and that, whatever the details, your basic approach is correct and will be supported by other people and events. If you push the envelope, it will come naturally in the course of things and not likely cause problems or dispute. The only drawback might be that you assume too much, get too lazy, and forget to give that extra push to keep on course.

Moon Trine Sun

If you encounter persistent resistance this month, back off. Busting through unyielding barriers will get you nowhere, so simply go around the obstacle. There may be paranoia in the air, so avoid catching it yourself and let others be the ones to suffer unfounded fear or suspicion, and let them do it by themselves. Halting progress mayresult, but better that than involvement in pointless imbroglios that sap your resources without making any headway. For this reason, avoid arguments, however tempted you may be to correct someone who is grossly wrong. The more wrong they are, the more they are likely to fight about it. Instead, sow your seeds on more fertile ground for the benefit of all.

Sun Opposition Pluto

Moon

Whatever your head says about managing your money this lunar month, try following your intuition. You may get much more out of a first reaction on what to spend than a lengthy analysis and justification. Things you acquire now, however ephemeral or seemingly irrelevant, can pay off in unexpected dividends in the future. Pick up that extra duplicate before it's not available any more, and so forth. Above all, however, remember that if you don't like what you've got, get rid of it and keep what feels best to you. You can only successfully mine the resources that feel right, possessions are only worthwhile if they truly serve your purpose. Now is a time you are particularly gifted at knowing what will be a support and what will be a burden.

Moon in Second House

What you feel and what you want may be somewhat at cross-purposes, and this can result in both over and under reaction. Being true to your feelings may seem to hurt you, being false to them bring you gain. Neither bring satisfaction, and half-measures are even worse. What may be necessary is to take a closer look at your values, which are really what is at issue, and then follow that still, small voice which is your conscience, wherever it finally leads. Your greatest enemy is self-deception, a major symptom of the unexamined life. What, and whom, you think you want may lose its shine down the line, and you're not shopping for perishables. Pay extra for something that will last.

Moon Square Venus

It's a unique year when feelings may be hard to articulate because your inner emotional processes are going through a period of change and redefinition which won't solidify for a while yet. If you seem distracted from time to time, it's because you are and should be as you sort out a variety of personal approaches you hadn't really examined closely before. Since you are in the process of change, it's a good idea not to make snap decisions based on previous assumptions but rather take extra time to see if you may want to reconsider your approach and take another tack. You may not see the changes going on right now because you are too close to them, but you'll look back later and they will be quite apparent.

Moon Conjunction Neptune

Ascendant

Broad visions, grand illusions - it may be difficult to tell them apart this month, which is characterized by expansive energy and enthusiastic vigor that may at times be a little less than wary. The trick is not to bite off more than you can chew, as there will be plenty of details that demand attention which could be overrun by an all-encompassing, one-size-fits-all approach. Harness the excitement, channel the passion, focus the fervor and you'll be in command of a juggernaut. Allow this horse to simply have its head, and you'll wind up in the back pasture. This is a month that begs you to take the reins, but not too tight, and ride it like the wind until you capture the prize and wear the laurel. The picture: controlled thunder.

Ascendant in Sagittarius

Sudden events that come at cross-purposes can make it difficult to chart a steady course this month, and if a sudden, unexpected gust hits you, expect another one. Choppy waters abound, but you stabilize the bouncing boat by staying in the middle seat, avoiding sudden moves that may tend to capsize you. You'd like to get up to speed, but stop-and-go traffic has you testy. What first seems contrary, though, will even out in the end if you don't overreact, even though others may. Unexpected events can tar your rep, shake up your house, but take them in stride and, mainly, don't take it personally. Uranus Square Ascendant Expect the financial outlook to be a little mushy this month, but that allows you to fudge things to please everybody, a path worth taking because it will serve you well. To a certain extent, you may find that by taking on the persona of others' hopes and illusions, you can help lead them to a better understanding of themselves, bringing you along in the process. So, feel free to empathize, sympathize, commiserate, condole and generally getinto mutual feelings that help for better relationships and understanding. By serving as a mentor and a platform that helps achieve someone's aspirations, you do them and yourself a favor. Right now you will more easily play that role than usual, so take up the mantle if the situation suggests it.

Neptune Sextile Ascendant

The inner planets change significantly from month to month and indicate the personal permutations your life is going through. Basically, it's the framework of how you play the game, who else is playing, and how they're playing it. Easy aspects mean you win with no contest, hard aspects suggest a more hard-fought game that may put your life skills more to the test and increase your personal growth and talents through experience. The text relays both sides and gives advice on what games to play, what ones to avoid, and the best strategies - whether you want to raise, hold, or walk away.

Mercury

Communication with your partner or finding a partner you can communicate with will be highlighted, as will be the channels of rapport through which you do it. You can do a lot to help by concentrating on listening and better understanding where your other is at. If they don't tell you, how will you know? So encourage them to express themselves, make your relationship clear. For this reason, this is a good time to put together business deals where you are dealing one to one. You'll be able to button down details, avoid stepping on each other's toes later. Clarity of understanding as the result of careful expression allows you to get to central issues of the heart and the structures of living withone another, at home or in the workplace.

Mercury in Seventh House

Venus

You should find time to take pleasure in pleasure, exult in creativity, and take the time out for love - whether with a partner or your family. You'll find yourself particularly inclined to let down your inhibitions in favor of a good time, and now's a good time for it. A particular talent to achieve grace and proportion will lend itself for awhile, so pick up the fruits as they fall from the tree. Life is a cabaret, and for awhile you're in the floor show if you'll just follow your nose. Make sure to take a lot of pictures, as this may well be a time you'll want to cherish in days to come. Operant phrase: make hay while the sun shines.

Venus in Fifth House

Chasing elusive butterflies can be a great temptation right now, but when you catch them, don't be surprised if they're just bugs. What you choose may not be what you want when you get it right now, either because you weren't seeing clearly or you have been sold a bill of goods. This is a very prudent time to look a gift horse in the mouth unless you're positive it's got a clean bill of health. "Perfectly clear" intentions right now may be murkier than you think. On the other hand, indulging small illusions in the interest of keeping the peace can be the humane thing to do, as long as you're sure your white lies have a silver lining. It's required.

Venus Square Neptune

Mars

Old issues may come back to haunt you this period, and you will likely dispatch them with vigor. Don't be impetuous, however, as you want to keep the tried and true, even if you've moved on to new territory. Old habits die hard, so don't kill them unless you have to. Watch you acquire, and you won't have to dispose of it. Keep a close eye on spending and particularly take care to have your payments in on time or your credit rating could take a hit. Conversely, if you're square with that department, this is a great time to pursue loans, credit, and investments from others. Don't tax your resources when you can let others bear the load.

Mars in Eighth House

Sometimes things get so tangled up you just want to drop it all and leave. You may feel like that now and then as well-meaning but slightly misdirected energy combined with barely off-base thinking leads into unexpected tailspins of unimagined dimensions. In many cases, it is better to just stop and start over rather than endlessly unravel the scrambled situation you've gotten into. Keep your sense of humor, however, and you'll have everybody laughing at themselves and ready to go again for a better try. This is a good time for working out the kinks, but not so good for launching new endeavors or making final commitments. The image that comes to mind is that of a dog shaking off water - have a towel handy.

Mars Square Jupiter

This is a time to be in it for the long haul, where getting things done requires patience, tenacity, endurance, stamina. That applies as much to your personal life as to the rest of the world around you. You will not get things done quickly, but you will do them well and have accomplishments to be proud of. Expect to be tired, but also expect to get that second wind that comes from pressing on anyway like a long-distance runner. Precision operations are favored, as is restoral, renovation, refurbishing, anything that puts new life into the old. What you spend a lot of time on perfecting will last, and hard work, however slow it goes, pays off in the end.

Mars Conjunction Saturn

You probably don't need to work that hard to be liked and well thought-of about now, but you need to have a fairly skillful hand at it. It's not what you do that does the trick, it's what you do to get others to do a speak on your behalf that shows the master touch. Do favors for free, but put your brand on them, so people remember where they came from. Don't use the hard sell, just make yourself available and interesting. Plant the seeds of desire so that they grow from within and when others praise you it will be their own idea, or at least feel like it. A small nudge at the right spot can start an avalanche, so look for just the right place/person and then apply the least leverage.

Mars Sextile Midheaven

The positions of the middle and outer Planets - Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, along with the Moon's North and South Nodes - change little from one Lunar Return to the next, so they add more of a backdrop, the stage set on which the monthly play is performed. They are very powerful, however, and their long-running helpful and troublesome aspects are not to be taken lightly. They can be like a rope to swing yourself across the stage or a trap door that will cause a fall if you're not watching. The text on the mutual aspects of these giants to the inner planets and the Lights, and where they fall by house, shows you just where to watch for them, what mood they're in, and how to get them on your side.

Jupiter

An expanding circle of friends can be your biggest resource during this period, so take advantage of all opportunities to hobnob with the best. Mixing with those who can be of especial help to you is very much in the cards if you are willing to go out there and do it. Don't be shy - you've got to try if you want to fly. It's a good time to be especially generous with your close friends, as they have been what helped you get where you are, and they are there for you when you call. Building on that intimate base will only help shore up the foundations of your success, especially when it takes allies to get the job done. No man, or woman, is an island - hand in hand is the way to proceed.

Jupiter in Eleventh House

This one-year-in-ten period is full of shifts and changes, struggles and dissatisfactions, confusion of purpose or profit in the world in general. If you didn't think ahead and see this coming, you can find yourself rather at the mercy of changing storms.Although this may not affect you that much, it's affecting the general populus, so expect shifting sands on a regular basis. This applies not just to economics but to disagreements about the very makeup of moral fiber, right and wrong, which side are you on, and so on. Don't go for an easy fix, as a good one probably won't be available at all this year. The wise are waiting, not wading in.

Jupiter Square Saturn

Saturn

If you don't pay your bills on time, you'll suffer, and this is when you should be particularly careful to pick up every stitch. If you don't need the credit, don't ask for it, as if you're turned down it's a mark on your record. Use what's yours, not what belongs to others, and you'll be better off. Hoard your resources and don't pitch things you think you can't use, because you'll need them immediately the moment you do. Don't expect things from the past, rather rely on the future to supply your needs - it will become the past soon enough. This lunar month's lesson is self-reliance, and when you've got that, all the rest is gravy, so pitch in and make it so.

Saturn in Eighth House

Uranus

Flashes of insight, bolts from the blue, startling messages on your answering machine all could be around the corner. Sudden interruptions of calls and meetings, stop-and-go traffic more than usual, computer crashes, events bunching up together with long, vacant spaces between. It's a time of spotty and ragged communication, but when you get your point across, or get the message, you can find yourself on unexpected new ground. Don't try to keep it under too much control, just ride with it and see where it leads you. No times like interesting times, and here they are, so enjoy them. Don't make dates you can't break, or you'll be forced to break the dates you make. Just free your mind and see what happens.

Uranus in Third House

Neptune

It may be hard to keep a firm grip on your finances for a time, and if you want an exact bank balance, total it up several times. Forget exact certainty in that area and just ballpark it until the month is past. It's a good time to use free association to discover new sources of income, but not yet the time to act on what you find out. Don't believe everything that's promised in that area, but expect that some of it will indeed work out well, while the rest vanishes into thin air. Speculation runs rampant, but don't bet on blue- sky investments which can wither under the light of scrutiny. Be skeptical, but don't allow that to interfere with your creativity. After all, "if you don't have a dream, how are you going to have a dream come true?"

Neptune in Second House

Pluto

The keys to getting your way this lunar month likely lie in your ability to stronglyproject your own personality in such a way that it overpowers others. This can make you the dominant, alpha player in your surrounds, but you may pay the price of resentment by others who feel pushed out of the way. A better way to approach this is to distribute extra credit to other players while quietly seeing that you have achieved your goals, and only your goals, in the subtlest possible manner. You could win in a shoving match, but it's better if competitors get at least a part of what they want, while you still retain the prize most important to you. The iron fist in the velvet glove is as obvious as you should get.

Pluto in First House

Node

Things you say to people this month could have in them the makings of long-term commitments, so watch what you say. Others may read more into what you say than you intended and think they've got a deal when they don't - or at least not when you meant to make one. To avoid disappointments and unwanted entanglements, choose your words carefully and remember that handshake agreements often hold as much water as a signed legal document. On the other hand, be on the lookout for especially good new ideas coming your way that could have unanticipated results. Thinking big will place you where you want to be, whereas thinking small will more likely result in entanglements. The devil, not the gold, is in the details this month.

Node in Third House
Lunar Return

When selected Lunar Return positions occupy the same spaces as bodies in your natal chart, this highlights certain natal inclinations for the month. It will mean that certain elements in your fundamental character will be emphasized both internally externally. These will be the areas that most appear to represent you for the moment and that others will seize upon as entry points to your personality. These are the areas in which you can put your best foot forward to make the most effective and gratifying steps ahead, providing your first line of challenges and opportunities to embrace the world.

Venus Highlighted by Sun

You will likely run across issues and opportunities that allow you to prove your charm and magnetism and set the tone in that division for some time to come. Expect to have both the need and desire to captivate your audience and come away with the prize due to a combination of innate charisma and studied attraction. Getting what you want, be it money, love, position, or more altruistic gains, will be highlighted, so make sure that you not only get what you want, but want what you get, as you may have to be satisfiedwith it for some time to come. Be careful of what you wish for, as you just might get it, and when you do, you will want it to satisfy long-term.

Lunar Return

As the Moon speeds on through the month, the minute hand of your Lunar Return, it moves through all twelve houses of both your natal chart and the Lunar Return chart, as well as hitting both sets of planets. These are the times to look for specific events that activate these parts of your monthly picture and will offer times for making your best moves. There are forty-seven such events, and they repeat every month, but not at the same time or in the same order. Plus, the playing field and basic potentials of each month differ, so each of the basic transits has a different role to play every month, while retaining its core implications. The individual transits begin with the symbolism of the degree at which they occur, followed by an interpretation of their general meaning, and finish with a handful of specific "issues and accents" to address, which they may bring into your life. Finally, your personal Void-of-Course Moon periods will vary widely and are important timing factors in the daily decision-making process, so keep a close eye on them.

RETROSPECT

It takes a village to get anything done, which means to get things moving you've got to talk to everybody in town. If you take this time to be the great communicator and unify your social network you will find there are plenty of hands to go around to get it all done. Open new avenues of discussion that focus not on theory but on everyday nitty-gritty, things that grease the skids for all concerned and avoid wasted time by getting rid of repetition, misunderstandings.

Issues and Accents: ridicule, books, departures, education, errands

If you are tempted to highlight your insufficiencies, do so in the interest of a better and less wasteful existence. When things suddenly stall, it's usually for a reason, and now's the time to find out why. Don't bash yourself, do improve yourself, you can't overcome your limitations until you truly know what they are.Similarly, limitations are often imposed because you haven't made sufficient use of what's already on your plate. Say grace, and you'll receive grace.

Issues and Accents: limits, cramps, boundaries, property, despondency

Professional considerations should be looked at and adjustments made to see that your name is recognized and respected among your peers. While your attention is on it, touch up that resume, touch up your image, and take some time to advertise yourself. Make mileage out of compliments and take credit where it is due. Follow up leads and don't be shy about blowing your own horn, as long as you can truly live up to what you promise. Time to wave the flag - yours.

Issues and Accents: power, retirement, patience, father, judgment

Sat Jun 17, 2013 Moon in Pisces 09:58 am Moon Conjunct Return's Uranus 15° Pisces: An of icer in unkempt campaign uniform is preparing to drill men dressed in military tops quite worn for wear. FIRMNESS

Taking risks on sudden, far-out ideas may generally be inadvisable, but this may be just the time to do it. Sudden flashes of insight may cut through the normal, humdrum solutions and start you thinking out of the box. Don't just throw caution to the winds, but don't hesitate to try something new and different this month if it seems appropriate to the occasion. Remember, however, that doing so may change more than you think and could have you off balance unless you take a flexible stance.

Sun Jun 18, 2013 Moon in Pisces (Enters Aries at 11:54 am) 06:47 am Moon Void (Personal) Ends: 11:54 am 07:09 am Moon Void Ends: 11:54 am 12:14 pm Moon Conjunct Return's Moon's Node 1° Aries: A woman has risen from the water; a seal has emerged also, and is embracing her. REALIZATION

This is a time when the fox comes into view and the chase is begun, but you may not want to participate in the hunt, so take stock before you go galloping off. The opportunity for emotional or financial attachments and the responsibilities they entail may be something you want to pass on for the moment. Today's blithe commitment all too often becomes tomorrow's burden, so be sure that you really want it before you saddle yourself with more than you may want to carry. This does not mean avoid commitment altogether, but that many call and only a few should be chosen.

07:37 pm Moon Enters Return's 4th House 5° Aries: A white triangle is seen; it has golden wings. ZEAL

Attention to laying the foundations of what you are going to do and be for themonth is the order of the day. Build from the ground up and don't start on the first floor until the basement is done. You don't have to complete it all right now, but have the order determined and your materials ordered so you don't have to go back and draw up altered plans later. Where you've already put it all together (or mostly), tidy up the joint, set your house in order.

Issues and Accents: reflection, nostalgia, mood, enrollment, kitchen

11:47 pm Moon Enters Natal 11th House 7° Aries: A man comes forward flushed with the successful and simultaneous expression of his talents in two separate realms. EXPANSION

This is a good time to look to close friends for support, either as backing for endeavors you need help with or just for general emotional support and refueling. It's also a good time to tap into others' creativity when your own inspiration well runs a bit dry, and you'll find yourself refreshed as a result. In a similar vein, you may also want to tap into higher resources, both spiritually and financially, to pick up some of their overflow for yourself.

Issues and Accents: hold outs, emotion, anticipation, misgivings, detachment

Tue Jun 20, 20013 Moon in Aries (Enters Taurus at 03:23 pm) 12:38 pm Moon Void (Personal) Ends: 03:23 pm 02:21 pm Moon Void Ends: 03:23 pm 09:23 pm Moon Enters Return's 5th House 4° Taurus: The rainbow's pot of gold is revealed in the midst of a shower of sparkling and flashing colors. VISUALIZATION

Making the most of playtime can do as well for you as the most earnest work, and setting time aside for recreation and generally creative pursuits will serve to refuel and reinspire the rest of the month. The works of your life are your children as much as any son or daughter, and when they are conceived and nurtured in love, the result can only bring reward. So, listen to the natural soul inside and take some time now to bring those inner voices into the sunshine.

Issues and Accents: theatrics, relaxation, charisma, recklessness, audience

Wed Jun 21, 2013 Moon in Taurus 10:10 pm Moon Enters Natal 12th House 18° Taurus: A woman is holding a linen bag out of her window to give it fresh air and sunshine. SUBLIMATION

This is likely the quiet time of the month, a lull in traffic, the calm before the storm of renewed energy that will follow. Retreat and contemplation, with resultant renewal and regrouping, are favored pursuits. Use down time to reconsider your options and make sure you are really on the right course. Inner challenges you grapple with and resolve now will result in more focused and effective action when the time comes for it, which will be shortly.

Issues and Accents: charity, stealth, escape, memory, mercy
