This trend will last all summer and beyond, because from June 15th-October 12th, expansive Jupiter goes retrograde (backward) in your twelfth house of healing, endings and retreat. It’s as if your mind, body and emotions are all detoxing, and all your energy is required for this process. Having Jupiter in your twelfth house is not always easy—in fact, it can be one of the most challenging years you’ve had in over a decade. At times, you may feel tired, drained and overextended.
The key is to understand its purpose. Next year, Jupiter will be in Pisces, which will begin a fresh, 12-year cycle for you. Your job in 2009 is to let go of the past and all that no longer serves you. The more you resist, the harder it is. But when you let go and allow the universe to work its magic, miracles can happen.
LOVE & ROMANCE:
Love reignites later in the month, after a solitary first half of June. On
June 20th, the Sun moves into Cancer, your fifth house of romance and passion.
Whether it’s with your current partner or someone new, you crave
more excitement, affection and attention. On the 22nd, a new moon falls
here, helping you make a fresh start. This moon will oppose transformational
Pluto, indicating that a shift in attitude will go far. Optimism, adventure
and faith are your ingredients for success. Pluto is in your ninth house
of travel and study, so you could meet someone while vacationing or taking
a class. Broaden your horizons, Pisces.
On June 7th, the Sagittarius full moon gets caught in a tussle with Saturn, which is in your relationship sector. In some way, you could be challenged to balance the dueling demands of career, love and time for yourself. To do so, you may need to set up a few more boundaries with your partner. Or perhaps your career is interfering with quality couple time, and you need to set up regular date nights. Unromantic as this seems, it will still be an improvement over the catch-me-when-you-can approach.
For some Pisces, this full moon could bring a confusing couple days. Sagittarius rules your tenth house of fathers and men, so any past issues with your dad (or men in general) could come to light. You may even grapple with whether you want to be free or in a serious relationship. Look deeper within your own life, and heal rifts with important men from your past and present.

MONEY & CAREER:
A peak moment in your career arrives at the June 7th Sagittarius full moon.
This moon beams into your tenth house of success and leadership, bringing
the past six months’ work to a manifestation point. For most Pisces,
2009 hasn’t exactly been filled with career high points, but that
doesn’t mean you can’t have an epiphany about your life’s
direction, or make headway toward a goal. The full moon is like a spotlight,
so at the very least, it can help you see things you weren’t able
to before.
This full moon will form a tense T-square with unpredictable Uranus and strict Saturn, which will force you to reckon with a few conflicting needs. On the one hand, you want freedom and flexibility; yet, you also crave the security of a steady paycheck. Perhaps you could parlay your skills into a three-to-six month consulting gig. It’s all in how you package yourself and your expertise.
Your relationship could play into financial matters, too. A partner’s lifestyle may be causing you to shoulder financial burdens, or you may be uncharacteristically dependent on someone else. None of this is comfortable, Pisces. However, it can certainly spark one of those serious heart-to-hearts about finance with your mate. You might even check out a book like Smart Couples Finish Rich—an outside perspective will certainly help.
HEALTH & FITNESS:
Manage your stress, Pisces. Energetic Mars is in Taurus, your impulsive third
house, all month. With a lot of nervous energy swirling around, you could
find yourself noshing on junk food or falling into old habits like smoking
to deal with the stress. Limit your time on the phone and computer, too.
The third house rules communication, so a flood of emails, calls and Facebook
activity could keep you up well past your bedtime.
This will take discipline, but it will be worth it. On June 15th, Jupiter goes retrograde in your twelfth house of rest and healing until October 12th, forcing you to slow down and rest. This month, you’ll feel the impact of pushing past your limits, and your health could even break down if you’re not careful. During this cycle, you should spend time near water, and try healing techniques like Reiki, acupuncture and energy healing.
There may be something that you need to mourn or release. Perhaps a relationship or situation has come to its natural conclusion. Allow yourself to feel the emotions of grief and sadness—even to have a good, cleansing cry. Repressing and denying old feelings won’t make them go away. If need be, find a good therapist or support system to help you talk things through. Next up: your Pisces Weekly Horoscope >

GENERAL:
The lazy days of summer are upon you, Pisces, and there’s no need to
fight that. In fact, you probably can’t. This month, several planets
put you in “extreme rest” mode, forcing you to slow down and
take a much-needed chill pill. Until June 20th, the Sun is in Gemini, your
fourth house of home, family and foundations. It’s a great time to
nest, rent a cozy beach house, read paperbacks and laze in the sand.
