Tension Peaks this Week!

🌕 Strawberry Full Moon & Lunar Culmination

Back in January, the Full Moon in Cancer marked the northernmost moonrise of an 18.6-year lunar standstill cycle. Now, we reach the southern extreme: today’s Strawberry Full Moon is the lowest hanging full moon since 2006. This marks a powerful portal moment, initiating a new cycle that culminates in 2043.

This out-of-bounds Full Moon lands in Sagittarius, the sign ruled by Jupiter, bringing themes of abundance, truth-seeking, and expansive vision. Meanwhile, Jupiter just entered Cancer, ruled by the Moon. This mutual reception — each planet in the other’s domain — magnifies both planetary energies. Together, they blend big-picture optimism (Jupiter/Sagittarius) with emotional attunement and concern for home and family (Moon/Cancer).

In addition, Mercury, the planet of communication, is also traveling out of bounds alongside Jupiter in Cancer. Voices are loud, ideas are bold, and many feel fiercely protective of what they call home.

⚡ This Weekend’s Forecast: Tension Peaks

From June 14–16, action planet Mars in Leo squares off with revolutionary Uranus in Taurus at the critical 29th degree — a placement of urgency, endings, and karmic pressure. The result? A potential eruption of restlessness, rebellion, and volatility.

Just yesterday, a magnitude 3.2 earthquake rattled Los Angeles — and more tremors may be on the way: geologically, socially, or financially.

Prepare for:

  • Sudden disruptions

  • Amplified protests and government action

  • Escalating conflicts and flashpoint conversations

Those with placements near 29 degrees, especially in fixed signs — Taurus, Leo,  Scorpio or Aquarius — will be most affected by this urgent and disruptive energy.  You may suddenly decide to break free from anything that feels suppressive, outdated, or restrictive.

🧭 Your Compass for Navigating the Storm

The Moon in Sagittarius encourages truth-seeking. Saturn in Aries calls for discipline in action. Together, they offer a reminder:

⚖️ Stand for what you value rather than fighting against what you oppose!

I wince when I hear politicians proclaim, “I will fight for you!” Fighting generates more fighting. We need collaboration, support, problem solving, and advocacy.

This is a time to:

  • Stay grounded in your truth

  • Protect what you love

  • Verify sources before sharing information

  • Refuse the bait of divisiveness

  • Choose community over conflict

United we stand. Divided we fall.

Saturday, June 14th, is Flag Day and I’ll be marking the occasion as a reminder that the American Flag is an enduring symbol for all Americans— not just a few.
