Astrology for June 2013;

1.Fire of LoveThe energy of the exact Uranus Pluto square on Monday, May 20th corresponded to the fury of wind and destruction that took place in Oklahoma City. This transforming aspect is affecting all of us. The driving power of Pluto intensifies the violent breaking down to erect new beginnings connected with Uranus in Aries.

How can we live in more harmony with this earth and each other?”

Some of us experience this time as extreme pressure to persevere, while at the same time wanting to break free of constrain and irresolvable impasses. Some feel this time as an erupting of long repressed feeling and unconscious material. Some will be challenged with sudden, unexpected situations arising that cause shock and grief, followed by a deepening within oneself. Some will experience being in limbo, some will be seized with new ideas, inspirations and feel a new self emerging. No matter what the exact situation, humanity and the earth are getting worked over, catapulting us into uncertainty and the unknown, challenging us to be fully present to ourselves and each other, unified in creating a new vision.
