Studentenkrant’s June Horoscopes

Let me try and explain June: it’s a balloon being stuck through with a pin. False hopes will be buoyed for a moment but will then sour. Still, you should enjoy what little sweetness we do have left before it’s completely gone, unless the current aftertaste for you is too volatile and tinged with blood. The first stretch of the month has the capacity to be somewhat enjoyable, though it continues the “dramatic” social and interpersonal situations of May. By the 25th, questions about relationships will become more clear, direct, and bright. Any illusions you had will begin to fade. 

I know it’s already rough now, but it’s not going to get easier later. (I’m sorry, I don’t like giving these dismal forecasts.) Due to us now entering eclipse season, June’s general mood may feel intense, fated and strange. Some themes in your life from December and January may return around the summer solstice on the 21st in a way that furthers their story or concludes them, especially for Cancer, Libra, Capricorn and Aries. 

Traditional sources advise: limit your bodily exposure to the rays of the moon and sun during eclipses, even if they are not directly visible in your location. This applies to the partial lunar eclipse in Sagittarius on the 5th, and even more so to the total solar eclipse in Cancer during the solstice on the 21st of June. You’ll be fine if you do happen to bathe in eclipse light, it’s just a bad omen. Don’t be too worried. We get eclipses every six months, so you’ve already gone through them many times before in your life. 

Note: These horoscopes are written for your rising sign/ascendant sign. However, you may still try reading your sun sign. See which is more accurate for you in the end. 

If you don’t know your rising sign, you can calculate it online. It depends on the time and location of your birth. Astro.com is one reliable website for this. You are looking for the sign of the “AS”/“Ascendant”, which is located in the left part of your chart.

Illustrations this month are in pairs of opposing signs. 

Aries ♈ 

June is the last month of calm before your storm. Oh, it won’t be bad at first, but then you’ll become increasingly angry for the rest of the year, with the worst of it being in the autumn. Excited yet? Knowing what’s in store, please take this month to prepare yourself and find healthy outlets for the pressured energy you will later feel. Maybe solidify that affair you’re in, so you’ll have a partner to back you up. By the way, the vividness of your dreams will only continue to expand. Write them down.

Libra ♎

Are you looking over the world with fresh eyes and fresh convictions? You have to continue your heart-searching, so that you can enjoy the fruit it produces later. You have a voice for the world, and you enjoy sharing it. Something critical could happen with your acquaintances, siblings or cousins. Meanwhile, you will be called to rethink what you want to do with your life, and how much drastic emotional importance you place on your career. 

Taurus ♉ 

Lately, food just doesn’t taste as nice as normal. Do you pray, or have some sort of daily set of routines or rituals? It would help you out to stabilize those right now. You’ve been a bit frustrated with your friends lately, and have subtly ignored them. Those conflicts will have to be resolved before you can move forward. Prepare for some long, emotional talks. 

Scorpio ♏

If you take some action with your finances right now, it will grow into more than you expected it would in the long term. This could be in a positive or negative direction, so proceed with discretion. I advise you remain reserved for the moment. Continuing from May, focus on helping your partner’s woes without sacrificing your needs in the process. Find balance. Your education or personal philosophy may also come into question, and you will make a final decision about it after much deliberation. 

Gemini ♊

In June you will continue exploring and remaking yourself, and to put to rest anything that is holding you back.  It’s time for a new stage of change and growth to start in your life, especially in regards to relationships- this chapter is over, and you have to write the next one. Your public reputation has been causing you some anxiety, but that will soon pass. Later in the month, you will feel financial pressure, and the source of your income may change. 

Sagittarius ♐

This month, you will reach a revelation about your relationships and what you want from your partner, which continues on from last month. Your home or family are adding some unhelpful aggravation to this process. The worse news: you’ll have to deal a lot with other people’s problems. You’re normally very selfless and forgiving, but your patience may be tested. You might find your thoughts to be excessively morbid near the end of the month. Like Aries, find a way to blow off some steam, though you won’t have to deal with the same degree of anger that they do. 

Cancer ♋ 

Look, you’ve gone through a lot of intense changes in the past year and a half. You had a reprieve from that, and now it’s time to face the music once more. Surprise! What you thought was stable about yourself, is actually not at all. You’ll just have to go over yourself again to figure it out. It may be similar to what happened to you in July last year. 

Capricorn ♑

Oh, did you think you were done with all the draining shifts in your love life from last year? Nah, they’re going to return this month. Also, you know that banging noise in your house at night that has kept you from getting any sleep? Yeah, that’s not going to stop, no matter what you try. I know all these annoyances won’t be able to hold you back from your dedicated path. Establish necessary boundaries. You’re excellent at that. 

Leo ♌

Loosen up this month. You’ve been holding yourself back for no good reason. You might have a spontaneous fling, or find a new source of happiness. That’s a good distraction, because you’ve been feeling strangely haunted and plagued by what you cannot see or understand. It’s time to let go, and face the natural endings that are experienced in life. Loss is only painful if you try to hold on too tightly. Don’t dig in your heels. 

Aquarius ♒

Do you better understand what you find to be fun after May? You still have some time to play if you want, if you have the resources and money to do so. Other than that, if you haven’t learned your lesson about the importance of your health yet, you have another chance to focus on all the necessary routines to keep yourself strong. Don’t pick up any bad habits right now, because they will get stuck to you. 

Virgo ♍

So, has your partner or romantic life been an obstacle in your actions with your career? Have other people been just pretty nasty to you lately? Some fights are not worth having, and you may need to back down and concede victory to your opponent. There may also be a culmination of events relating to where you live. Finally, someone you’ve forgotten about may try contacting you.

Pisces ♓

Did you attune yourself to your body, like I told you to, or did you just become aggravated with everyone around you? Don’t lash out, dear. Your family or home will become more certain and stable after you finish your serious interrogation of them. You’ve been acting, frankly, undead. You’re going through all the motions, but are you really there? Get some support from your powerful friendships.
