Retrograde Planets – Saturn, Pluto
The Sun
12th House/Gemini; 12th House/Cancer 6/21-24
Specific influences: 9, Fehu, Albus, Human Design Gate/Line 12.5 The Pragmatist
The Sun’s influence impacts an individual’s identity, vitality, and ego expression. At the beginning of the week, someone may reach out to you for advice; however, your boundaries may not be as strong as they need to be and you may feel drawn into a situation that you’re unprepared to deal with. During the latter part of the week, it could be you that need support, and you may end up retreating to the comfort of your home or another sacred space if you find that support is lacking. Although you generally express your feelings clearly to others, you may still experience fear when sharing your innermost feelings. If so, consider letting go of that fear so that you can more fully express what you need, whether this applies to your personal or professional life.
Be generous with your time on Sunday, 18 June 2023, particularly of others can benefit from your experience. Although you can be somewhat restrained at times, this is a day when what you offer will be greatly appreciated.
The Moon
Various signs and houses (12th/Cancer 6/18-20; 1st/Leo 6/21-22; 2nd/Virgo 6/23-24)
Specific Influences: 6, Nauthiz, Amissio, Human Design Gate/Line 39.6
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 may retreat if you become upset or overreact, and seek solace or a new perspective from a trusted friend or family member. You may also become fairly moody during this period and spending time with a close friend may lift your spirits. As the week comes to a close, a stressful situation may cause you to become overly self-critical or self-indulgent. However, this may also provide an opportunity where you can explore past wounds, put them into perspective, and embrace their healing message.
Your ability to troubleshoot a problem on Monday, 19 June 2023 may be welcomed by others and bring change that is both positive and progressive. Your unique perspective and strong leadership may help others to rise to the occasion as well.
Mars
1st House/Leo
Specific Influences: 2; Sowilo, Via, Human Design Gate/Line 7.6 The Administrator
Mars invokes action, courage, passion, and strength in an individual. You want to express yourself creatively, however, at the beginning of the week, your emotions may be in flux with overreaction or disappointment possible. This is particularly true if you don’t keep your expectations in check regarding a close partner. Essentially, you may need a new strategy if what you want isn’t in sync with your partner’s needs, so that you keep your impulses under control and the relationship doesn’t suffer.
If in a leadership role on Tuesday, 20 June 2023, you may need to delegate responsibility in a manner that promotes harmony and collaboration. Although your self-confidence is strong, it’s best to remain adaptable to the ideas of others.
Mercury
11th House/Gemini
Specific Influences: 3; Thurisaz, Puella; Human Design Gate/Line 45.2 Consensus
Mercury influences an individual’s communication style, thought processes, and how one negotiates or transacts with others. Although you love sharing ideas with others, conversations may become intense at the beginning of the week, and you may experience some pushback from others. As the week progresses, you’re less inclined to argue and more apt to carefully consider what you’re doing to contribute to the situation. At the end of the week, someone may challenge you, but instead of taking the bait, you may benefit from reevaluating your beliefs.
Let go of superficial attitudes on Wednesday, 21 June 2023 so that any decisions you make reflect the common interest. This may be a time when new beginnings are possible, especially if you approach the situation with optimism and a reasonable perspective.
Jupiter
10th House/Taurus
Specific Influences: 22, Isa, Rubens, Human Design Gate/Line 24.1 The sin of omission
Jupiter is the planet of expansion and influences an individual’s growth, luck, abundance, and self-confidence. You’re at your best when you can advise people in a balanced way, and your ability to maintain a broader perspective inspires others to do the same. However, toward the end of the week, your focus may be off and you may be overwhelmed by a new situation or unexpected challenges. Exercise caution so that you avoid an impulsive response that could impact your ability to pursue new opportunities.
Your temper may get the best of you on Thursday, 22 June 2023, and it may take all of your resolve to control your response. Today’s Master 22 numerology provides the space to manifest anything you want; however, it may take tremendous focus on your part to remain rational and under control.
Venus
1st/Leo
Specific Influences: 3, Mannaz, Rubeus, Human Design Gate/Line 52.2 Concern
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. Although people around you are drawn to your charm and passion this week, your expectations of others can be unrealistic. In short, you may sabotage your ability to see a situation clearly, impacting your ability to attract a partner who understands your creative needs.
A balanced approach to an issue on Friday, 23 June 2023, will strengthen a relationship with a partner, instead of one that is more superficial or agenda-driven. The reciprocity that you both express will deepen the commitment you share.
Saturn
8th/Pisces
Specific Influences: 6, Uruz, Cauda Draconis, 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. Although you feel compassion for others, intimacy is more challenging, and you find it easier to focus on work than on developing close relationships. Midweek, you feel risk-averse and are unlikely to step outside your comfort zone. If low self-esteem plays a part in your hesitance, it could increase the feelings of abandonment that may already experience. A return to self-discipline at the end of the week may improve your focus and comfort.
Providing assistance on Saturday, 24 June 2023, can lead to future collaboration. You have the power to shape your experiences, and although you may have been accustomed to going it alone, a new shared path may be opening.
