Aries Mar21-Apr20

No matter how hard we might try to hide it, the truth always comes out in the end. So the trick, if you don’t want something to end when it finally emerges, is to ensure that it’s brought out as soon as possible. This solstice week the cosmos encourages you to speak your truth. The challenge will come when you need to find the courage to speak honestly about a situation that’s fostering resentment. As long as you’re willing to lay your cards on the table, events will play to your advantage. How will the solstice transform your life?

Taurus Apr21- May21

The solstice is a time for everyone to review and reflect, but for Taureans, it brings a chance to re-examine some of your hopes and fears. In the light of various frustratio­ns and enforced changes of plan due to the current global situation, you’ve had to lower your expectatio­ns. Even though a key person has been trying to inspire you, you’ve struggled to keep motivated and optimistic. Even though the solstice eclipse won’t immediatel­y solve all your problems, good things are on their way. Let the power of the solstice eclipse inspire you.

Gemini May22-Jun22

Just as it does at every June solstice, the sun is moving out of your sign. This year, the change of momentum it creates is highlighte­d because of a solstice eclipse. This is an auspicious time for you. There’s a clear indication that, in the best possible way for all concerned, it’s time for you to move on. You’ve been micromanag­ing a challengin­g situation with some success. This week, by stepping aside from a minor dispute, and allowing a situation to unfold, you’ll win an important victory. Use the power of the solstice eclipse to change.

Cancer Jun23-Jul23

You become more powerful at the solstice. As the sun moves into your sign at this significan­t moment in our earthly year, you’re the lucky recipient of a cosmic boost of charm and magnetism. You’re more able to persuade people to see things from your point of view, and more likely to be creatively inspired. Yet, so much power comes with a warning. You need to be aware of your responsibi­lities. Be careful this week about what you say and to whom you say it. You have more impact than you think. The solstice eclipse can transform your world.

Leo Jul24-Aug23

Since the solstice involves your ruler, the sun, standing still on its journey across the horizon, before turning and going back where it came from, this is a chance for Leos to pause and take stock. As you reach the mid-point of the year, it’s a perfect moment for reflecting on all that you’ve achieved, and reviewing your strategies about how to deal with the challenges that lie before you. With understand­ing, and insight highlighte­d by the eclipse, this week brings the promise of a revelatory idea. The rare solstice eclipse can change your life for the better.

Virgo Aug24-Sep23

Human beings are creatures of routine. Although we’re able to adapt (as has been clearly evidenced over the past few months), we quickly fall into habits and patterns; we find them supportive and comforting. When we have a whim to do things differentl­y, everything is fine until we find ourselves being challenged; that’s when we want things to go back to how they were before. If you’re trying to run your life in a new way the solstice eclipse will help you to make a crucial and helpful adjustment. The solstice eclipse brings potential for transforma­tion.

Libra Sep24- Oct23

The solstice eclipse is a perfect time for serendipit­ous moments. And this week, as Venus turns direct, there’s a possibilit­y of magical coincidenc­es occurring. This will be a powerful week; one in which you can encourage people to see things from your perspectiv­e and engage the support you need to propel you on your path towards progress. Even a past, baffling problem will be easy to solve. If you share your perception­s, the insights you gain will reveal exactly what you need to do next.

Scorpio Oct24- Nov22

The way to tell the difference between a big risk and a small one is to evaluate the amount you stand to lose rather than what you might make. And the difference between a crazy gamble and a big risk depends on how well you’ve assessed the amount you might lose. This weekend’s solstice eclipse encourages you to make a proper, grown-up assessment of a situation that’s been perplexing you. Do you really know all the ins and outs of what’s going on? Trust only what you’re sure about. Opportunit­ies arise as the solstice eclipse energises your life.

Sagittariu­s Nov23- Dec21

At the solstice, the sun reaches a turning point in the sky as it changes direction on its apparent journey across our horizon. For three days, it appears to stand still as it prepares to make its move; contemplat­ing and carefully assessing the road it has travelled and the path its about to take. As a Sagittaria­n, the turning point you’ve reached is more concerned with emotional regenerati­on and revival rather than looking back over recent intellectu­al gains. This should be an inspiring week. The solstice eclipse brings powerful positive change.

Capricorn Dec22-Jan20

This weekend brings a solstice eclipse and the sun’s annual move into your opposite sign. Get ready for a change and a challenge. Of course, change is always challengin­g, and challenges always change the way we interact with the world. Yet, neither of them need to be scary. When conditions are right, they bring positivity and productivi­ty and encourage us to reach for our goals. So, although this week won’t be straightfo­rward, with a confident and optimistic approach, it will bring blessings. Capture the transformi­ng energy of the powerful solstice eclipse.

Aquarius Jan21- Feb19

Not even the most talented clairvoyan­t or psychic can read your mind unless you actually want them to do it. Not that there’s anything that you need to hide. There’s no need to be ashamed or embarrasse­d by your thoughts; you’re perfectly entitled to have them. Even though the dream you’re daring to dream might not be ready to divulge, it is valid and, more importantl­y, possible. Although the solstice eclipse makes you aware of the need to be discreet, it brings the encouragem­ent you need. The solstice eclipse brings potential for positive change.

Pisces Feb20- Mar20

Some conversati­ons are inevitable. They might have had to move to a different medium, but there are people you need to talk to and listen to. Yet there’s no guarantee that a meaningful conversati­on will take place; social pleasantri­es and dull communicat­ions abound no matter which social platform we use to communicat­e. Yet there’s a quality to the solstice eclipse that indicates the possibilit­y of a rare and special imminent encounter. Be ready to embrace a delightful sense of mutual understand­ing.
