General Daily Insight for June 09, 2024
Putting one foot in front of the other will get us somewhere sooner or later. Action planet Mars is entering grounded Taurus at 12:35 am EDT, setting us up for six weeks of methodical and careful creation. The Sun in Gemini squares Saturn in Pisces, imposing clarity upon our inner drives and reminding us to listen to our senses of intuition. The Moon then leaves Cancer for Leo and finishes the day with an opposition to Pluto in Aquarius, encouraging transformation inside and out.
Aries
March 21 – April 19
Money makes the world go round — at least for the next month and a half. Your ruler Mars is striding into your 2nd House of Income for the first time in two years. This initiates a powerful cycle when you can increase your net worth and give yourself a financial boost unlike any other. The one caveat to bear in mind is that Mars can increase costs while increasing your income, so avoid spending your cash as quickly as you earn it.
Taurus
April 20 – May 20
Your vitality is positively off the charts! This newfound burst of firepower is thanks to Mars arriving in your sign, filling you up with energy and ambition — and the drive you need to pursue your goals and see them manifest. This is also a great time to focus on your physical body. If you’ve fallen off the workout bandwagon, then this cycle strengthens you to get your act together and start running with the best of them, literally or metaphorically.
Gemini
May 21 – June 20
Sometimes action has to take place behind the scenes, rather than in front of you where you can see it all. You’re entering such a phase as energizer Mars slips into your 12th House of the Subconscious for the next month and a half, encouraging you to go with the flow while the universe takes control. The more you attempt to strongarm your way into any particular situation, the more resistance you’ll feel. Don’t beat on a wall hoping to make it a door.
Cancer
June 21 – July 22
Your social obligations may feel more pressing than usual. Mars is bounding into your 11th House of Friendships, invigorating your platonic connections and giving you plenty of opportunities to connect with people, old and new. This transit can stir up lots of invites and events to go to wherever you can shine amongst company, but it could also create some friction among your local cliques. Be on the lookout for any shady behavior or gossiping that might throw off the amiable dynamic!
Leo
July 23 – August 22
Aim as high as you can, Leo! An inviting track is opening up before you as energetic Mars races into your 10th House of Ambition. You’re being topped up with fresh impetus to chase your goals and do whatever you need to ensure that they come to fruition. You may be exceptionally busy on the work front for the next six weeks, but trust that the work you do now will pay off for a long time to come. Go for gold!
Virgo
August 23 – September 22
The world is full of boundless possibility, so don’t just leave it sitting there! You’re being gifted a special desire to go explore as passionate Mars enters your 9th House of Expansion, inspiring you to forge ahead through hardship into fresh territory in the name of self-edification and enlightenment. This is a terrific time to travel, so if you’ve been thinking about booking a whirlwind vacation, now is your moment. You could be halfway across the globe before you know it!
Libra
September 23 – October 22
True closeness requires work and effort. You can immerse yourself in this intimate energy as Mars moves into your 8th House of Shared Resources, putting a big emphasis on the deepest bonds you share with others, be they physical, financial, or emotional. This transit can ask a lot of you, as it requires you to be open to other people’s needs and possibly incorporate them into your own way of being. Still, the rewards should be worth it in the end.
Scorpio
October 23 – November 21
Partnerships are not always simple and easy. They may provide you with a bit of a headache as warrior Mars invades your 7th House of Relationships. This supplies your connections with a surplus of energy, but also showers them with an intense heat that may require an extra sensitive touch. People can be extra ornery or reactive when Mars is in this arena, so be willing to give people their necessary space. Of course, don’t forget to include yourself in that!
Sagittarius
November 22 – December 21
Good results require honest effort — especially at this time. Fortunately, energizer Mars is rushing into your efficient 6th house, where it will remain for the next six weeks. It should be easier than ever to work up the energy necessary to tackle everything on your plate. That said, Mars will make sure there is a lot on it, so don’t be shocked if your to-do list is practically a mile long. You’ve got plenty of firepower pushing you along toward the finish line!
Capricorn
December 22 – January 19
There’s no reason for you not to live life to the fullest. Everything is becoming more exciting and positive as Mars dives into your 5th House of Pleasure for the first time in two years, cuing you to make your passions your number one priority. This six-week transit will create more chances for you to express yourself in various ways, but especially in an artistic fashion — or even a romantic one, whether single or coupled. Regardless, don’t be shy about showing off.
Aquarius
January 20 – February 18
The party is popping off in your living room! Your hearth just became the hottest spot in town, thanks to Mars bounding into your domestic 4th house for the first time in two years. Mars can bring energy and action, like house parties, renovations, or moving, but it can also bring stress, like tense family interactions or excessive company. You could even realize that some renovations are necessary. Make an effort to prepare for all eventualities while leaving yourself some private time to decompress.
Pisces
February 19 – March 20
Heads up, Pisces — events are flying at you at light speed! This nonstop energy is due to Mars marching into your 3rd House of Local Community, giving you plenty of things to do and people to see, regardless of how necessary they actually are. This transit can be a lot of fun, but make sure you’re still checking off important tasks along the way, or else you risk getting caught up in busywork without actually accomplishing anything. Don’t let that happen.
