Summer’s on the way, and there are some bright cosmic pairings to help get you ready for the hot days and nights ahead.
However, your thoughts briefly drift backward when Mercury (the insightful planet) enters sentimental Cancer on Monday. It’s nice to look back and remember the good times you’ve had. But this gentle transit isn’t all about back then. Memories can connect you to current situations and help you make decisions based on the important lessons you should have learned.
On Thursday, Cancer season officially starts, as the sun (representing our sense of self) partners with the Crab and welcomes the summer solstice. On this happy first day of a magical new season, you can’t wait to get started with beach trips, vacays, barbecues, and other fun stuff. Just remember to keep your cool, both literally and figuratively. As the days heat up, so does your mood, which can leave you feeling hot and bothered over the littlest and most insignificant things.
And to elevate the celebratory vibe of the season to come, a full moon (our cosmic emotional gauge) in ambitious Capricorn on Friday puts your accomplishments in the spotlight and rewards you for all the hard work you’ve done lately. Think no one noticed? Think again! It’s so nice to be appreciated. Keep this positive vibe going over the summer, and some amazing things will be headed your way.
