Metal Ox day, June 22. Mercury stations direct at 16°07 Gemini at 3pm PT: keep your patience as things tend to get wonkiest during a stationing day as matters ruled by Mercury, including transportation, communication, and the way our mind processes info adjust themselves to the new direction. Move forward slowly and give yourself extra time to get from one place to another, as Mercury won’t be at full speed until he’s out of his shadow phase on July 7. ✨
The Metal Ox day pillar mirrors the year pillar, emphasizing themes that have been at play this year. Since Yin Metal relates to communication, be mindful with words spoken and written, and refrain from getting triggered by something you hear or read - let it pass. 🌟

Metal Rat day, June 21. Venus links up with Neptune, awakening our sensitivity to the beauty around us. Open the heart to unconditional love, stop and smell the roses. When you see the world from a place of love and kindness, the world brings you love and kindness in return. 💜
We may spend some time reflecting on life around this time last year as the Metal Rat day pillar mirrors 2020’s year pillar. So much has changed since then. With the Rat opposing the Horse month, we may be tempted to overindulge. Know when it’s time to stop. ⚔️

Earth Pig day, June 20 takes us into solstice as the Sun enters Cancer. We’re now in the height of summer in the Chinese solar calendar, the exact middle of the Horse month, with Yang dominating. The I-Ching hexagram representing the solstice seasonal marker, the Creative Principle, is all Yang (solid lines) - all Light, and no Yin. With Fire element, associated with light and the heart, at its height, find inner joy in the warmth of the Sun. Treat your heart with loving kindness and creative expressions. Rise and rest in sync with the Sun. 🌞
Jupiter stations retrograde at 2°11 Pisces - by end of July, he’ll be back in Aquarius till end of December to take care of some unfinished business. If you have planets or points between 22° Aquarius and 2° Pisces (or between 22° Leo to 2° Virgo or 22° Taurus/Scorpio to 2° Gemini/Sagittarius), think back to opportunities or challenges that came up in spring, you may be presented with something similar as Jupiter retraces his steps. And this time you may want to approach them differently. ✨
The solstice is an ideal time to spend time in nature to celebrate Mother Earth, associated with the day’s Yin Earth. The Pig, a travel star, brings a busy day of movement and activities.🌀
