Starcodes June 9 2023

It’s a lovely summery week with deeper astrological undertones running underneath. The Sun in flirtatious, conversational, pollen-filled Gemini is joined by Mercury on Sunday and our thoughts can drift like petals on the wind. But our hearts could burn a steady fire with Venus now with Mars in fiery Leo, as they grow closer together, they’ll encourage us to live our emotional and creative life out large. The mood will be good when it’s good and dramatic when it’s not. Expect fabulous proms, parades, and festivals, and some truly operatic breakups or world events.

We can play with the performance elements of these Leo planets and still stay authentic with our feelings. These planets can magnify our feelings and make us self-conscious about them, create an emotional meta-verse where we have an emotional response to our very emotions themselves. Let’s be happy about our happiness but be very careful about being melodramatically sad about our sadness, or worried about our worry. Stay real, trust those valid feelings at the core. Stay in the present and make the most out of every delicious moment of the summer rather than read the terrors and joys of the future into it. There will be time enough for that later.

It will be particularly important to live in the present this week rather than borrow trouble from the future or the past as Pluto retrogrades back into Capricorn until next…
