Hope Without Illusion

The astrology of June 2025 unfolds with a sacred tension between care and grief. As the month begins, the two most positive planets in Astrology, Venus and Jupiter, move into their home signs of vitality, nourishment, and abundance. Venus enters Taurus on June 6, and Jupiter enters Cancer on June 9. These transits would typically suggest relief, abundance, and restoration. But in our current world, where Gaza has been starved of aid since March 2 and genocide has ravaged not only Gaza but also the Sudan and Congo, the question becomes: how do we hold hope in the face of so much devastation? Astrology teaches us that we must attempt to hold both truths: the potential for growth, and the reality of grief.
