The Week Ahead: 11-17 June 2023
The Week Ahead is a comprehensive look at both the weekly planetary information as well as the daily forecast. The planetary information presented is from daily astrological charts over the course of the week that aligns with the planetary governor for each day, while the daily information is gleaned from each day’s I Ching-based Human Design chart, runes from both the Elder Futhark, geomancy, and numerology. The astrological and Human Design charts are cast for 8:00 am Pacific time.
Retrograde Planets – Pluto, Saturn (6/17)
The Sun
12th House/Gemini
Specific influences: 11, Eihwaz, Laetitia, Human Design Gate/Line 45.4 Direction
The Sun’s influence impacts an individual’s identity, vitality, and ego expression. You continue to feel unsupported this week, either by those around you or due to a lack of finances that may impact potential travel plans. However, although obstacles or delays affect your progress at the beginning of the week, your self-confidence will carry you through. You may also be drawn to someone who needs help working through a personal issue during the week. That said, there is a risk that boundaries may need reevaluating, especially if you become overly involved. Spending time in your garden or in another natural setting may help you strike a better balance. Saturday’s New Moon may bring out a narrow perspective on your part. If so, set an intention to help you see the bigger picture.
Take the high road on Sunday, 11 June 2023, so that you avoid influencing others for personal gain. Today’s eleven Master numerology awakens you to spiritual truth as does the influence of the rune Eihwaz and its own link to higher astral realms of consciousness. Remain positive and watch for synchronicities.
The Moon
Various signs and houses (9th/Aries 6/11; 10th/Aries 6/12-13; 10th/Taurus 6/14; 11th/Taurus 6/15; 11th/Gemini 6/16-17)
Specific Influences: 3, Inguz, Rubens, Human Design Gate/Line 21.6 Chaos
The Moon’s interaction with the various signs throughout the week impacts an individual’s emotions, moods, and vulnerabilities. At the beginning of the week, you’re independent-minded and attracted to the more esoteric side of life. You approach your profession in an ambitious manner and you derive emotional satisfaction when recognized for your achievements. That said, you also need a stable routine and when faced with challenges, you take a practical approach to finding solutions. And, although you love to interact with others, and friendships play a vital role in your emotional security, you tend to rely more on yourself to meet your emotional needs rather than depending upon people who may not be as reliable as you’d like.
A new opportunity on Monday, 12 June 2023 may not come to fruition if your response is ineffective or you overreact in some manner. Instead, stay optimistic, and let go of any judgment until you know more.
Mars
2nd House/Leo; 1st House/Leo 6/16-17
Specific Influences: 4, Eihwaz, Laetitia, Human Design Gate/Line 7.1 Authoritarian
Mars invokes action, courage, passion, and strength in an individual. At the beginning of the week, your energy may be lower than usual and you’ll benefit from taking some time to regroup before carrying on. You may also try to over-nurture someone who really doesn’t need that from you. As the week progresses, your self-confidence returns and you rise to the challenge and seek out new opportunities. You assert yourself with passion and charm; however, you may need to manage your expectations of others so that you’re not disappointed if they react in an unexpected manner. Although your inner strength increases your self-confidence, toward the end of the week, you may also become arrogant in your need for independence and control.
With some hard work and a pragmatic approach on Tuesday, 13 June 2023, you may achieve some progress, especially if you avoid trying to control all aspects of the situation. Listen to your intuition and see the bigger picture.
Mercury
11th/Gemini
Specific Influences: 5, Mannaz, Conjunctio, Human Design Gate/Line 20.6 Wisdom
Mercury influences an individual’s communication style, thought processes, and how one negotiates or transacts with others. Interacting with friends gives you the opportunity to share new information in a balanced manner. However, toward the beginning of the week, you may need to consider your words carefully and respect the input others have to offer so that interactions don’t become tense. You could also be fixating on new ideas so much that you have difficulty getting your point across. At the end of the week, your intuition increases as does your adaptability to challenges.
Consider how collaboration with others on Wednesday, 14 June 2023, may lead you in a better direction and protect all that you’ve achieved thus far. In the long run, integrating your mindset with others can expand both your awareness and experience.
Jupiter
10th/Taurus
Specific Influences: 11, Algiz, Conjunctio, Human Design Gate/Line 42.2 Identification
Jupiter is the planet of expansion and influences an individual’s growth, luck, abundance, and self-confidence. Over the week, you provide inspiration to others but may have issues with committing yourself to new opportunities. There may be obstacles in your path that are of particular concern and you may be more inclined to focus on experiences that require less of a commitment on your part. That said, your optimism is high and you’ll likely be successful at anything you pursue.
On Thursday, 15 June 2023, you may be stuck in a particular perception and struggle to process or embrace change. If so, allow higher awareness to guide your choices, and align with others who do the same.
Venus
1st/Leo
Specific Influences: 7, Tiwaz, Via, Human Design Gate/Line 33.3 Spirit
Venus, the planet of attraction, happiness, harmony, and beauty, reflects the feminine aspect within and how an individual loves and expresses intimacy as well as self-worth. How a partner perceives you, and how well you express your creativity within your relationship, deeply matters to you. This is particularly true if you feel unsupported in any way by your partner. That said, you may be focused on your work at the expense of your relationship. If so, it’s a challenge that you can overcome.
Take some alone time on Friday, 16 June 2023, so that you can gain a different perspective. You may have been stuck in a pattern that was self-defeating, and now it’s time for the spiritual warrior within to rise.
Saturn
9th House/Pisces; 8th House/Pisces 6/15-17
Specific Influences: 8, Othala, Amissio, Human Design Gate/Line 37.2 Responsibility
The planet Saturn slows things down, invoking realism, boundaries, restraint, and the impact of time on an individual. While you may focus on more esoteric ideas at the beginning of the week, as the week progresses, you may struggle with expressing those ideas to others. And, although your compassion for others during the week is strong, you may feel uncomfortable with a deeper level of intimacy due to a perceived lack of control.
You may be hesitant to engage with others on Saturday, 17 June 2023, and you may retreat to your sacred space so that you regain your balance. Once you feel better, you’ll be able to more effectively collaborate with others.
