Your June 17 Weekly Horoscope Is Here & You're Diving Into Cancer Season

This week begins with a blast of fiery emotion in the form of a full moon in Sagittarius. Even though all full moons are volatile and spiritually revealing, this one is especially so because it will join forces with expansive and eye-opening Jupiter. Whatever Jupiter touches is inevitably exaggerated and this connection is bound to make you wonder whether or not you're living life to the fullest. Forming a square with dreamy and illusive Neptune, your feelings may feel messy and distorted, but your June 17, 2019, weekly horoscope will help you make sense of it all. As hard-working and stabilizing Saturn forms a sextile with Neptune on June 18, you'll realize you can accomplish anything you set your mind to. Remember that your dreams matter.

If you thought all the intensity would begin to ebb away after the full moon comes to a close, think again. On June 18, Mercury — planet of cognitive function and communication — and Mars — planet of drive and vitality — will form an intense conjunction. This ups the ante and makes you all the more hungry for validation and success. You might feel impulsive, touchy, or aggressive if your defenses flare up. However, this transit is extremely helpful if you set your sights on something you're passionate about, as it provides you with so much energy and ambition.

When this Mars-Mercury conjunction forms an opposition to transformative, obsessive, and secretive Pluto by June 19, you have a powerful opportunity to bring an idea to completion or compete to win. However, be careful, because this opposition can bring out manipulative, controlling, or conniving tendencies if you're not mindful of your actions. Focus on yourself and try not to compare yourself to others. Everyone grows at their own pace.

As of June 21, there will officially be four outer planets in retrograde with the addition of magical, spiritual, embellishing, and hazy Neptune. With Neptune's energy turned inward, you can expect the fantasies and illusions you rely on to vanish. Neptune retrograde tends to pull the plug on all the unrealistic things you may believe in, as well as call attention to your escapist tendencies. Let this transit show you the truth.

And, without further ado, this is the week everyone says goodbye to Gemini and hello to Cancer. When the sun enters this cardinal water sign on June 21, it launches the beginning of summer and will wrap your heart in warmth. Prepare to feel your intuition expand and your compassion open wide.
