ROSE MOON—JUNE 2022—WHERE IS YOUR SENSE OF ADVENTURE?

A Super Moon in Sagittarius lights the night of June 14—opposing the Gemini Sun. A super moon occurs when the moon is especially close to the earth at the time of a full moon. Get out into nature and witness this spectacular sight! 

Also known as the Strawberry Moon, named by Native American tribes because of the time of year in which ripening of flowers and fruits occurs—signalling summer in the Northern Hemisphere. 

A super moon in June in the adventurous sign of Sagittarius—the most daring of the three fire signs—can prompt feelings of release. Loss of control is part of this cycle—we go from the familiar to the unknown. Many things are still in ‘process’ for now. We must believe that we are loved beyond our capacity, we must learn to integrate that truth. There is more than enough for everyone to feel fulfilled. That is the greatest lesson on earth. Sagittarius is the fountain of optimism, they love to share, express, nurture, and guard.

The opposing energy of Gemini > Sagittarius is noteworthy, as both mutable signs activate different parts of the brain. Sagittarius is softer than Gemini, yet more direct. They are intuitive, emotional, full of fire. Gemini represents insight and cerebral knowledge—it is colder, and therefore not as emotional. This axis makes this particular lunation swing wildly from side to side. We are simultaneously on a quest for information as we sit silently, feeling the energy of the situation, reading body language, and decoding personal nuances. Mentally agile, we have the ability to network and make friends with just about anyone. The dynamic pairing of the Sun in Gemini and the Moon in Sagittarius gives hard hitting results. Life is all of a sudden real; too real. We can resign from a job, have a frank conversation with a lover, see to it that a family member gets the help they need—important things coincide with this Super Sagittarius moon. My advice for a smooth transition is to: let feelings sink in, give life space to materialise—to forge its own path forward. Hold faith in what can be. A strong sense of self can’t be shaken, despite outside occurrences rattling it. 

There are four dimensions to human life: the mind, the body, the spiritual realm, and the external world. To sharpen and strengthen our own potential, we must be willing to do some exploring—individually, as well as collectively. Be willing to be moved by the unexpected, larger forces and possibilities in life. This concept is primal—by embracing the feeling of ‘adventure’ in your life, you accept new approaches to love, health, spirituality. You are enriched by learning, seeing, experiencing—by doing and being.
