Virgo
Aug 23 - Sept 22
Today's Horoscope This week This month
Virgo horoscope for June 2023
This is an active month in the skies, with five planets on the move and Mercury, who has spent the last two months in the same area of your chart spending time in three this month. This is going to create a lot of variety and change. The first planetary shift will take place on 6th June, when Venus will leave your friendship sector where she has been on good terms with both planets in your relationship sector. This will leave your friendship sector empty until the Sun returns on 22nd June and could see a desire for company dial back. It is then that Venus will join Mars in a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart for what is normally the 24 day nostalgic trip down memory lane that she takes your heart on each year before returning to Virgo.
In the last full month of a two year Mars cycle, this is a time when you are often running on empty and ahead of his return to Virgo next month, with less gas in your tank there is a call to slow down. Venus is taking that to heart because from the moment she returns she is slowing down ahead of a retrograde turn that will see her remain here until October. However, life will go on and it is more that the time that you do have to pull back and take time to hear yourself think will become more important. Meanwhile, with the Sun in your career sector until 22nd June and Pluto in your work sector until retrograding back out on 11th June, this brings you to an important point in this professional year.
Once Pluto leaves, he will leave your work sector empty until he returns in January to spend the next 20 years here while when Mercury, who will move through your career sector from 11th June to 27th June leaves he will leave it empty until Jupiter returns to begin your biggest year for professional growth and expansion in over a decade. In both cases, this is preparation for something much bigger in 2024 and beyond, though as the last month this year when there is planetary activity in either of your two professional houses is a month where everything is coming together. What isn't ending and is instead about to catch its second wind and continue to blossom into the second half of the year is income potential.
Love & Romance
On both the romantic and relationship fronts three separate events will culminate in putting a lot of focus on the past and keeping it there through the middle months of the year. The first event is Venus, the planet of love's return to a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart on 6th June for what is normally a 24 day nostalgic trip down love's memory lane. That would mean that Venus would be back in Virgo by the end of the month, which isn't possible because the Sun is still too far away, forcing her to slow down and wait. This will not only see Venus turn retrograde here next month but it means that instead of running for 24 days, this is a nostalgic trip down love's memory lane that won't end until she returns to Virgo in October.This is enough to create a sense of nostalgia while putting the focus on the past, but it is just five days later that nearly three months after leaving Pluto will retrograde back into your romantic sector, where he will spend the rest of the year. Pluto will remain in retrograde motion for the entire time that Venus is in a nostalgic part of your chart, turning direct two days after she finally returns to Virgo on 9th October. However, it is not just on the romantic front that a lot of the focus will shift to the past, with Saturn turning retrograde in your relationship sector on 18th June and Neptune early next month.
With neither turning direct until after Venus leaves a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart and returns to Virgo in October, she will have company during what will be her longest nostalgic trip down love's memory lane in our lifetime. During that time the Moon will visit your romantic and relationship sectors every four weeks, giving you a chance to check in as the journey progresses. Because the Moon will move through your romantic sector from 5th June to 7th June, these nostalgic lunar vibes will begin under romantically charged lunar vibes, with the Moon returning to your relationship sector from 9th June to 12th June.
Business & Career
Because the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of June in your career sector, the solar spotlight is always on your career and professional situation, matters and options at this time each year. However, the difference this year is just how much water has passed under the bridge and how much further along you are than you would normally be by this time each year. Activity on the career front and what is still developing now can be traced back to last August when Mars returned for what is normally a six week visit to your career sector. Instead, a retrograde turn kept Mars here for seven months, with his longest visit in our lifetime only ending in March. Even then, things never got a chance to go off the boil with Venus returning 17 days later.This was early in the year for Venus, but it meant that there wasn't a chance for things to go off the boil and with Pluto having returned to your work sector the day before Mars left that included on the job front as well. Pluto is still here as we move into the new month, but in your two professional houses, this is the final push on both fronts, with both empty by the end of the month and staying that way for the rest of the year. It is on 11th June that Pluto will retrograde back out of your work sector, leaving it empty until he returns in January. It is just minutes later that Mercury will join the Sun and the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment in your career sector.
Mercury is the last planet to reach your career sector this year and he is the last to leave and when the Sun and Juno leave on 22nd June, he will stay on until 27th June to tie up loose ends. With 2024 destined to be a massive year on the job and career fronts, June 2023 is the month when all planetary activity on both fronts this year will end but not before months and endless resources have been invested into getting things up to speed. The Moon will make its last visit to your work sector before Pluto leaves from 7th June to 9th June, ensuring you are emotionally and intuitively engaged in the days leading up to his departure on 11th June. It is just a few days later that the Moon will move through your 10th from 16th June to 18th June, with a New Moon in its final hours giving career matters one last push.
Money
As you move into the new month, on both side of the financial fence there is a chance to pause, though for different reasons. On the income side of the financial fence, it is because that while you have no planetary activity in your income sector since the dwarf planet Ceres retrograded back out in March, she is on her way back and will return on 21st June. While it is rare to have planetary activity on the income front at this time of year, Ceres is less focused on the money and more on defining your income needs and priorities. With the second half of the year set to be the most lucrative, this will give you a blueprint from the start.However, the month begins with the Moon having just left your income sector, allowing you to begin the month with a sharp nose for money from the start but also a sense that something has shifted on the other side of the financial fence. For the last 12 months the Moon hasn't been able to move through your income sector without clashing with Jupiter in your financial sector, yet when it returned last month it was to find that this giant planet was no longer there. There is still planetary activity in your financial sector but only the dwarf planet Eris and the asteroid Chiron, providing enough to keep money matters on track and the momentum going but without the same overriding presence.
This is what you are adjusting to as you move into the new month, with Jupiter's departure ending his push for financial growth and expansion but with the focus shifting from pushing things forward to maintaining what has already been gained. With no other planets set to return this year, this is how things will stay on the financial front for the rest of the year. You will have a better read on this when the Moon returns from 12th June to 14th June. It will be a different story on the income side of the financial fence, with Ceres' return on 21st June a chance to get back into defining your income needs and priorities ahead of a busy second half of the year on the income front.
