Saturday 6/21/14--solstice

The Sun reaches the highest point in our sky, solstice, Saturday 6/21, 3:51am PDT, longest day of the year in the north, shifting over the top of our seasonal cycle into Cancer, the release of flowing feeling.

The Moon is in Aries, emerging spirit, building potential for a week, joining the Sun over the top for the first new moon of summer Friday 6/27.

Active Mars, seeking harmony in Libra, is charged for revolutionary expression, opposite Uranus in Aries Wednesday 6/25.

Mental Mercury ends retrograde, backtracking and reflective, returning to forward motion Tuesday 7/1.

In a time of reinforced nature power and intensified sensitivity, a summer of big energy release now begins.
