Star Wisdom: Your inner truth inspires action

A powerful eclipse in Sagittarius on the 4th reveals our inner truth and inspires us to passionate action. The Venus occultation on the 5th brings a wave of healing and activates the creative power of the 2012 consciousness.

Aries (Mar. 21-Apr. 19)…You get a blast of spiritual insight at the eclipse on the 4th. You see how a family pattern has played itself out through you in this lifetime and realize you are free to transcend this pattern and live your own life from now on. Leave the past behind and commit to what feels genuine and passionate.

Taurus (Apr. 20-May 20)…Venus wants to heal your finances and your self-esteem. Having your ruling planet in your money house all month long is nice enough, but lucky Jupiter also enters this same part of your chart on the 11th for a one-year stay. Bonus! Choose to believe in yourself and your chosen life path; you’ve got more cosmic support now than ever before.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)…The Venus occultation on the 5th brings you a reward for your spiritual and creative work over the last eight years. Jupiter enters your sign on the 11th, bringing an energy of abundance, expansion and good fortune for the next year. The eclipse on the 4th highlights a certain relationship. Remember that when you change, your relationships must also evolve.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)…The eclipse on the 4th shows you the cost of addictive behavior (including people-pleasing and caretaking) and inspires you to use your willpower to create more impeccability in your life. Once the Sun moves into your sign on the 20th, you are driven to manifest your dream. Invest in what you’re passionate about; your innovative ideas could find a mass audience.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)…The world wants your creativity, Leo. Look for a big opportunity to manifest early in the month as a colleague or friend wants to help you find the spotlight. This opportunity seems to require an intensive review or revision, so make sure to budget plenty of alone time and quiet space to do your work free of distractions.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)…A powerful career shake-up could be in the cards this month, thanks to the May/June eclipses and Venus in your career house. Jupiter enters your career house on the 11th, blessing you with opportunities to expand in the coming year. Be willing to invest in further training if it will help you reach your life goals.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)…Aligning your thoughts and beliefs with your chosen life path is a key theme in the first half of the month as the eclipse on the 4th and the Venus occultation on the 5th show you just how powerfully your thoughts influence your reality. The solstice brings an innovative, nonconformist new person into your life, pushing you to evolve into your best self.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)…June is filled with suitably Scorpionic themes: money, love, power and relationship. You’re being challenged to recognize just how powerfully magnetic you are. You can attract the relationships (and the financial opportunities) you desire, or you can attract conflict and control dramas. What would it take for you to believe in your best future?

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)…Venus in your 7th House is bringing you the opportunity to make a quantum leap in the relationship department this month. Jupiter enters your relationship house on the 11th, bringing a year of positive people opportunities your way. The eclipse in your sign on the 4th shows you just how capable you are when you are willing to let go of old patterns and embrace the fullness of your Self.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)…Things could get pretty weird at the start of the month as the eclipse on the 4th lights up your 12th House of the deep unconscious mind. See this as an opportunity to reclaim a part of your soul that has been repressed or denied. Integrating this part into your conscious awareness will help you eliminate a pattern of self-sabotage. A relationship takes precedence after the solstice, helping you see just how much you’ve grown in the last three years.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)…Let your love light shine this month! Venus in your 5th House is bringing you an opportunity to embody all that you’ve learned about following your bliss in the last eight years. All that’s required of you is a commitment to live from the heart. Lucky Jupiter enters this same part of your chart on the 11th, expanding your creativity and showing you that you really can manifest the dream of your life.

Pisces (Feb. 19-Mar. 20)…A major career opportunity – some might call it a revelation – arrives with the eclipse on the 4th. This might feel like a huge stretch; are you willing to let go of your belief in suffering and scarcity? Things are changing at home or with your family. This is a time of powerful emotional healing as Venus in your 4th House helps you gently but surely free yourself from the grip of the past.
