Although you’re still more a wobbly colt than a bucking stallion, at least you’re back on your feet. Saturn leaves Virgo on October 29th, so there’s still some growth ahead. However, you can now move forward confidently. To sweeten the pot, the Sun is in Gemini until June 20th, energizing your career sector. Many Virgos began entrepreneurial projects over the last year, but Saturn retrograde stalled your enthusiasm or sent you back to the drawing board. You’re ready to go public again in a big way now, to take the reigns of your life and get back on the field.
Lead the charge, but remember: you still get by with a little help from your friends. On June 20th, the Sun moves into Cancer, your eleventh house of groups and teamwork. Bring together a crew of people, whether for networking, an idea exchange, or to work on a social cause. Technology is also highlighted, so be sure to let your social networks know what you’re up to online, perhaps even through a podcast, tele-seminar or digital video. The wider net you cast into the universe, the more goodies you’ll catch!
LOVE & ROMANCE:
An intense four months finally end—and you need a vacation! Not from
love…but in the name of love, perhaps. Since February, romance planet
Venus was in your eighth house of intimacy, sex and secrets, which brought
high drama and emotion to your personal life. In some way, your love life
went through a transformation, and it wasn’t always easy. You may have
closed down emotionally, withdrawing into a private, protective pod. Some
Virgos worked through gut-wrenching trust and control issues, while others
had profound moments of connection behind closed doors.
This month, Venus and Mars move into Taurus, your ninth house of travel and the higher mind. Love becomes a lighter, brighter adventure again. Jealousy and suspicion give way to a more philosophical, “live-and-let-live” attitude. A summer vacation may be just the catalyst for a fresh perspective. If you’re single, perhaps a sexy someone with a foreign accent would like to practice the “international language” with you, too. Pack your bags and find out!
Keep your wits about you around the June 7th full moon. This moon falls in your sector of home, family and security, but it squares off with unpredictable Uranus. Your emotions could run a bit wild around this date. One minute, you want to be coddled, the next, you feel smothered and pull away. Look to your early childhood for the root cause. There may be some closure you need with your family, especially your mother. You could be punishing your partner, or facing obstacles in love, as a result of some old, unconscious patterns. Make peace and let it go at this full moon.
MONEY & CAREER:
More than most signs, you love to work. Feeling productive gives you a sense
of control, and makes all seem right in the world. Good news: the Sun is
in Gemini until June 20th, your tenth house of career and leadership. Your
professional life takes center stage, and it’s a great time to connect
with mentors and helpful leaders in your field.
From June 15th-July 3rd, your ruling planet Mercury is also in Gemini. Mercury governs communication and technology, so keep that Blackberry handy. Important messages and phone calls could come pouring in. Teaching and speaking are also favored. Why not pitch yourself as an expert, even offer a free workshop as a “teaser” to sell your services? The tenth house encourages structure and long-term planning, so if you’re an entrepreneur, it’s a great time to develop proposals and a business plan.
Of course, if you want to build a truly secure foundation, you also have to believe that you’re worth it. On June 7th, the full moon will challenge you to step up and honor your own value. This moon will square Saturn in Virgo, helping you take a good, hard look at how you present yourself. You might even work with an image consultant, or videotape yourself and watch the playback. Although it can be hard to watch yourself on camera, you want to be sure you’re presenting yourself in the best way possible—and in a style that reflects your essence.
HEALTH & FITNESS:
Lucky Jupiter has been in your sixth house of health and fitness all year,
pumping you up to stay in great shape. On June 15th, Jupiter goes retrograde
until mid-October, a low-power position. During this cycle, you’ll
need to work a bit harder to stay disciplined and stick to a plan. Old
habits could creep in if you’re not vigilant. Support yourself by
keeping a food journal, working with a nutritionist or trainer, or teaming
up with an accountability buddy. With energetic Mars in your freedom-loving
ninth house, turn the outdoors into your gym. Think: power-walking through
an exciting new neighborhood, a jog on the beach, even a vacation that
integrates daily fitness classes and nutritious food.
If you’ve been playing “mommy” or caretaker to people at your own expense, the June 7th full moon helps you cut the codependence. You need time for yourself, period. Virgo, do you get that you’re worth it? Make that clear to the moochers in your life by daring to say “no.” Toughen up and don’t let your heart overrule your head. Remember, if you’re always there to pick up the pieces, others will come to you to fix everything. As the saying goes: “Give a person a fish and he’ll eat for a day. Teach him to fish and he’ll eat for a lifetime.” Next up: your Virgo Weekly Horoscope >

GENERAL:
Life has gotten a whole lot lighter, Virgo. On May 16th, challenging Saturn
ended a five-month retrograde (backward) turn through Virgo, which made
life feel like prepping for a marathon. Saturn is the “personal trainer” planet,
and it throws you challenges designed to make you stronger. Saturn has
been in your sign in September 2007, pushing you to start a new path, take
yourself seriously, and even reinvent your life.
