From June 8-July 29, you get an additional push from energetic Mars in Virgo. Meantime, structured Saturn is also making its final rounds through Virgo until July 22nd, pushing you, boot-camp style, to take yourself seriously. Virgo, your ideas have merit, and if you’re willing to stand behind them, you’ll gain the respect you richly deserve. However, you must not compromise an ounce of personal or professional integrity here. Better to postpone a launch date than show something half-baked as a representation of yourself. Personal responsibility and integrity are your watchwords.

Summer vacation is pretty much off-limits until June 21st, when the Sun enters Cancer, your group activity sector. At that point, you’re poised to meet interesting people who are eager to help your cause and entertain your wildest ideas. It’s a great time for teamwork or online ventures. Surround yourself with a wise council of people whose skills and talents complement your own.

LOVE & ROMANCE:
Lower the shades, dim the lamps and draw a sumptuous bath. Shimmy into something sheer and barely there. Your missing-in-action mojo returns this month, thanks to passionate Mars in Virgo—a sexy seven-week cycle that begins on June 8th. Mars blesses you with extra powers of attraction. You can’t help but turn heads or invite admiring stares.

You’re ready to pounce, too, Virgo. On June 6th, lucky Jupiter begins a three-month visit to Aries, your eighth house of sex and intimacy. For some Virgos, this could mean exploring new terrain and pushing past bedroom boundaries. For others, love could turn serious, and you may venture into cohabitation, engagement or pregnancy. In some way, your capacity to trust expands, ready or not. The eighth house rules joint property and legal matters, too. If you’re finalizing a breakup, divorce or division of assets, Jupiter in Aries is a favorable time to complete a painful but necessary separation process.

On June 26th, a Capricorn lunar eclipse brings passion, drama and intrigue to an explosive head. This is a particularly “fertile” eclipse, so if you’re hoping to conceive, take advantage. If sexual tension has been building with someone all year, this could be the night to act on it. Then again, you may get hooked in deeper than you planned. Feelings you hoped to keep out of the affair may surface anyhow, despite your best intentions to suppress them. Virgo, maybe it’s time to let go of control and allow your heart to lead—or at least, to sit in the driver’s seat for a bit. One of you may not feel ready or sure, but that’s okay. Sometimes, the only way to discover your truth is to “try before you buy.”

MONEY & CAREER:
June is a big month for your career, thanks to the Sun visiting Gemini, your career house, until the 21st. On June 12th, the Gemini new moon sets off a new six-month cycle of success. Map out some broad-stroke goals for the rest of 2010. You may venture into international business or work with a long-distance client base. Marketing your ideas through both traditional and new media channels could help you build respectable name for yourself.

Financially, it’s time to start playing in a much bigger game. Virgo, it’s not about how much you make, but what you do with it. On June 6th, expansive Jupiter enters Aries, your eighth house of wealth and joint property. Begin exploring the money you can earn through passive income, real estate, investing and other avenues. It’s time to start making your cash work for you. If you’ve been waiting for a settlement, loan, inheritance or lump sum, you could receive this windfall soon.

HEALTH: MIND, BODY & SOUL:
You’re awake at last! Like Sleeping Beauty, you’ve been in “power-saver” mode for what feels like centuries, tired and disconnected from yourself. Not anymore. The handsome suitor who delivers your rousing kiss is Mars, planet of action and excitement. Since October, Mars has been in Leo, your foggy, sleepy twelfth house. Your normally active mind has been in a waking dream, unable to focus with its usual acuity. You may even have been clumsy or accident-prone. On June 8th, Mars enters Virgo, bringing you the clarity you’ve missed.

It’s a great time to get active, since Mars has a competitive, athletic edge. Join a sports team or a gym, or sign up for a charity race. Don’t forget about your inner wellness, too. With Jupiter and Uranus spending the summer in your internal eighth house, a holistic approach is important. You’re no stranger to cleanses or specially-designed diets that aid digestion, being the sign of purification. Get your systems running smoothly, and your energy will triple.
