Monthly Horoscope: Scorpio, June 2023

Details that might otherwise be overlooked can become clear as communication planet Mercury moves through analytical Gemini.

Venus’s clash with Jupiter inspires plenty of fun, and a big celebration could take place—just be careful not to overindulge. Venus is the planet of pleasure and Jupiter is the planet of abundance, so their square could mean too much of a good thing! Channeling your energy toward something (or someone) that you really love, that is healthy and grounding for you, is a wonderful way to work with this energy. 

Mercury squares off with Saturn in Pisces on June 15, which could put some people in a pessimistic mood, while others are focused on their work.

Spend your days around beautiful art, a peaceful body of water, or someone you love. 

The new moon in Gemini also takes place on June 18, and because new moons are all about fresh starts, this is a period of renewal for you, Scorpio, in any life situations that have been taking a while to resolve. This new moon can find you settling a debt, offering or accepting an apology, and otherwise wiping the slate clean!

Jupiter connects with Saturn on June 19, creating an especially supportive atmosphere in your relationships! Productive discussions about future plans or shared responsibilities take place. If you’re not in a partnership but are searching for one, then this alignment may find you realizing something about the expectations and standards you ought to hold in future partnerships.

Also on June 21, Mercury connects with your other ruling planet, Mars in Leo, inspiring a very atmosphere in your career and helping communications move along swiftly. 

However, discussions slow down as Mercury squares off with Neptune on June 25: Mercury is the planet of the mind, but Neptune is the day dreamer of the zodiac, so conversations might get stalled, derailed, or confused. The energy around communication shifts on June 26 as Mercury enters Cancer, but we’re more focused on examining hunches, exploring theories, and looking at the big picture, versus figuring out fine details. 

Also on June 26, Mars squares off with Uranus, putting the people in your life in an impulsive mood. Someone you know might do something quite surprising at this time! Chance meetings can also take place. Exciting shifts might be made in your career. The sun connects with Saturn on June 28, which can find you feeling especially confident in your expertise: If you’re an athlete, you can feel like you’re at the top of your game. If you’re an artist, you might be pleased with your creative work. This alignment can also bode well for your love life, as future plans may be discussed.

Mercury mingles with Saturn on June 30, finding you discussing travel or education, and organizing the logistics of upcoming events and projects. Neptune begins its retrograde on June 30, which could mean you’re feeling especially sentimental… your soft, sweet side is on full display! 

Good luck this month, Scorpio, and see you in July!
