June 2023
ARIES (March 21 – April 19)
This month you are indirectly blessed with planets in other areas. The first two weeks of June will have the Sun and Mercury well aspected to Aries, improving personal energy and then your intellect. Mercury is moving forward fast, so your mind will be active. Good mindfulness and wisdom will assist you in anything you do with this beneficial aspect. Be positive for the first weeks and then study and share your wisdom in the last two weeks. Interesting time. Keep your eyes and mind open for new growth.
Aries Buddhists love to be motivators. If you think of yourself as too independent, you may fail in your projects. Remember we are fully interdependent with the world around you.
TAURUS (April 20 May 20)
This month Uranus runs in Taurus with a short conjunction with Mercury. That means you mind will be very sharp. You have Jupiter also in Taurus which gives you enthusiasm, but it has a square with Saturn. That makes projects slightly complicated. Slow down and wait for things to develop gradually and you have greater possibility for success. If you have a positive mind with a beneficial intention, then all activities can create positive karma. The main thing is a skillful execution of the activity. That guarantees success more than anything.
Taurus Buddhists love to be grounded and practical. This month look at your own face to see the blemishes. Do not look at others, that is too easy and never benefits anyone unless you have strong empathetic compassion.
GEMINI (May 21 – June 20)
This month is the birthday month. Do not forget to send a present to your parents to say thank you for the body you currently have. Even if they have passed away, do some meditation, and send the good energy to them in their new rebirth. The month starts with a full package of aspects. The Sun moving forward in Gemini and Mercury moving quickly up from behind. Both will have a square from Neptune in the last weeks. This is not a disaster, but you will have to be careful what you try to organize. Neptune may make you distracted. Therefore, slow down and do small simple tasks this month. Your mindfulness and wisdom can overcome any negative effect that tries to confuse you.
Gemini Buddhists are quick on their intellectual feet. This month be mindful of useless energy expenditures. Pick simple tasks and do them well. It is a good time to remember the saying, “Being penny wise but dollar foolish.” Doing small tasks well will build into big projects with time.
CANCER (June 21 – July 22)
This month is the birthday month. Do not forget to send a present to your parents to say thank you for the body you currently have. Even if they have passed away, do some meditation, and send the good energy to them in their new rebirth. This month continues to be good. The Sun runs in your Sign in the last weeks of June and is supportively positioned with Jupiter. The power you had last month is less (from the astrological side of things) but the ability to work well is still there. The Sun and Jupiter well aspected will make you joyful in actions. Granted you have to like the things you do, astrology is not magic, it is just an influence.
Cancer Buddhists normally work with feelings. This month is a good time to focus on jobs that need to be done. You have astrological support to be effective and to think clearly about things, so do not hesitate anymore.
LEO (July 23 – August 22)
This month has Venus and Mars running in Leo. The Sun helps you from a distance but is less stimulating than Mars’s influence. The third week of June will be invigorating with Mars conjuncts Venus, stimulating powerful love and pleasure. If you have mundane desires, they may dominate in the last two weeks. If you have a good heart and intentions, you will be influential and a pleasure to be with. Remember, balance is the key to success in life. Keep in place your bodhisattva balance between samsara and nirvana and work for the benefit of others. Bodhisattvas work without expectations, that is best.
Leo Buddhists like to be motivators. This month keep in mind your altruism and vision for life. It is a good time to be motivated by what you would like to see accomplished, but with an open attitude that sometimes things manifest differently than we originally expected.
VIRGO (August 23 – September 22)
This month life seems so complicated. Mercury and the Sun square Virgo, which causes some distraction and then Neptune in Pisces squares them with an opposition to Virgo. Thus, an environment for confusion is created. Therefore, slow down and do simple tasks. We all need a huge bank account of positive karma. Building up that account of good energy is accomplished by doing small tasks well. Later with those successes we can do big projects skillfully too.
Virgo Buddhists do things in an orderly manner. This month your energy is complicated. Be mindful to not be impulsive. Always balance enthusiasm with wisdom.
LIBRA (September 23 – October 22)
This month there is support from a distance. The Sun, Venus, Mars, and Mercury all help from their positions around the zodiac. Those four planets help you be present, skillful, and energetic, so use that blessing to accomplish good tasks. Mercury is running forward quickly in Gemini, which will stimulate your mind. Basically, go slowly and be positive. Things work out simply if one is well organized. There is more support than complications for Libra in June.
Libra Buddhists keep life in balance. This month be mindful, positive, and helpful. Qualities that are easy for a Libra Sun.
SCORPIO (October 23 – November 21)
This month you are full of ambitious energy. Uranus and Jupiter are opposite Scorpio all month with Jupiter being squared by Saturn. This can mean you have impulsive energy bursting forth from you. Therefore, be careful not to demand many things from those around you. Understand the situations you are in and do not have many expectations. Expectations make life problematic. The basic stimulation for Scorpio is to want things to happen but feeling they are being obstructed.
Scorpio Buddhists are passionate. This month wish all sentient beings to have happiness and its causes, that wish can never go wrong. Just be mindful of the force of your desire and monitor the intensity. Don’t be overbearing.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 – December 21)
This month you have the Sun and Mercury running opposite your sign with a square from Neptune towards the end of the month. That means your desires and ideas are strong, but they are difficult to accomplish. The situation will appear confusing. Midmonth this will increase as the Sun and Mercury move to different positions astrologically. Therefore, at the start of the month do more quietude meditations to keep your mind in check. Projects are important to work for as long as they do not agitate you too much.
Sagittarius Buddhists are inspired individuals. This month organize your mind. If you forget to be mindful you may become confused. The reason is Mercury is moving retrograde all month and opposite to Sagittarius.
CAPRICORN (December 22 – January 19)
This month starts quietly as there are no planets strongly aspected. This will change in the last week of June with an opposition from the Sun and Mercury. That is beneficial though as there is a good aspect from Neptune. That means your intuition will help you manage the strong faith and thoughts. Be mindful and you will remove all types of interference for the month of June. Wisdom and mindfulness are the tools to clarify the mind, compassion is the way to express them.
Capricorn Buddhists reflect and contemplate on decisions. This month be mindful and slowdown in the first few moments of any action. Think about your actions first, don’t be impulsive.
AQUARIUS (January 20 – February 18)
This month Pluto is moving in Aquarius with a direct opposition from Venus. That means you feel strong sensations of love and attraction. This only applies for the first days of June though. Venus will move forward quickly and out of range of the Pluto aspect. Therefore, be mindful all month. The benefit is Mars and Venus will help your Buddhist practice. Meditations on active love for others will give clarity to your life. So put more emphasis on your altruism and meditations. It will feel like the right thing to be doing. This advice is in harmony with the planetary aspects.
Aquarius Buddhists are sociable beings. This month act on your love. You want to help others but remember to let things unfold naturally. Do not try to control samsara, things seldom work out the way we expect. That is samsara’s nature, unpredictable.
PISCES (February 19 – March 20)
This month life seems complicated in the last weeks of June. Reason is Neptune is square to the Sun and Mercury. Those aspects are not beneficial for success. Go slowly in the last weeks, especially avoiding exaggerated thoughts of others. Your dream life may increase and so spent some time reviewing them. Dreams are merely signposts on the road to Enlightenment. We just check we are going in the right direction, we do not stop and pick the sign up. We just note its message and correct things if necessary. Again, remember to go slowly in the activities you wish to accomplish. We can follow the wise words of Lama Yeshe, “Slowly, slowly.” It is a good month, just slow down.
Pisces Buddhists are sensitive and introspective. This month there is lots of energy but it may agitate you. Slow down and learn how to let energy flow through you without grasping hold of it. Remember the words given to Luke Skywalker by Yoda, “The Jedi moves constructively with the force, he does not try to control it.”
