Friday's Sky – 26.6.26 ✨

💜 Look at all those 6's!

Look at the date for Friday's Sky... all those 6's! It's got a ring to it. And to top it off, the whole day adds up to 6 too!

I love the number 6. It's very much about family, nurturing and caregiving. Not too dissimilar to Cancer energy, which we are now in after the Solstice on Tuesday 23rd.

❄️ Winter for us Aussies... and ☀️ summer for those up north.

🌕 Full Moon after Mercury retrograde

Now we are rocketing towards a Full Moon on 30 June.

What's interesting about this Full Moon, which is at 8°15' Capricorn on the Cancer/Capricorn axis, is that only six hours earlier, at 3:36am (AEST), Mercury stations retrograde in Cancer at 26°15'.

At that moment, the ruling planet of Cancer—the Moon—is in a tight square to Neptune.

Pay particular attention to what you're feeling.

✨ Intuition is heightened.

Our mind is not the only source of information. We live in a body with other intelligence systems too. Specifically, our heart contains more neurons than many people realise, and tuning into how it is tracking is definitely a good idea.

Stay attuned to your inner intelligence during this retrograde period.

🌊 Neptune's Reminder

Be cautious of believing things simply because they sound better than they are.

The Capricorn Moon is best expressed through observation and grounded intelligence with solid roots.

With Neptune in the mix, we must watch the tendency to place hope in something that hasn't stood the test of time.

And with the Full Moon arriving just six hours after Mercury turns retrograde, decisions that promise security simply because they remind you of a positive time in childhood are probably not enough to go by.

🛡️ Who Has Your Back?

The Neptune square to the Full Moon holds a warning to be discerning about who truly has your back.

Put your trust in those who have stood the test of time.

Your safest bet is ultimately yourself.

Taking responsibility and becoming your own saviour is where true security exists.

Of course, if you've gone wayward, you may disagree—and in that case, seek support or a sounding board to gain perspective.

Choose wisely.

There are many who have the words without the lived experience. People still need people where hearts connect.

🌙 Listening to Your Inner Guide

We are not alone.

This Full Moon has a powerful inner guide speaking in and through us.

Which voice do you listen to?

It is highlighting where you may have misplaced your trust—or your personal responsibility.

Neptune squaring both the Sun and Moon is a significant influence.

We must make extra effort to gain clarity, pause before acting, and strengthen our inner listening.

You're not missing anything.

You may simply have believed the false narrative that says you are.

🗣️ Remember the New Moon?

Remember how dominant Mercury was at the New Moon?

There was a big theme around speaking up, and how speaking up is shaking things up.

It's interesting listening to people share their ideas and concerns about the world today.

People seem more honest.

More vocal.

And, in particular, less concerned about people-pleasing.

On the flip side, be careful not to buy into ideals that promise everything but have little substance.

If it doesn't feel right...

...it probably isn't.

🔄 Mercury Retrograde

Retrogrades are periods of pause.

A time to give things time.

This Mercury retrograde, combined with the Full Moon, is highly intuitive.

It's a beautiful energy for meditation, contemplation and tuning into your own internal feedback.

🌕 The Moon is Out of Bounds

The Moon is also way out of bounds.

This Full Moon reaches a declination of 27°33' south of the celestial equator.

That places it around 4° beyond the Sun's maximum declination, making it significantly out of bounds.

We can expect some unusual behaviour around this Full Moon.

And because this Mercury retrograde is ruled by the Moon...

...we may come across a few wild rants.

🧳 The Moon Holds Memory

The Moon holds memory.

Huge emotional reactions can be expected.

Family feuds charged by past hurts are certainly possible.

Remember, retrogrades revisit things.

And when it comes to the past...

...we've got a pretty big reservoir of old pain to sort through, maybe even people to show our appreciation to 🥰

🌊 Neptune's Grace

Neptune also softens and dissolves.

It's pretty difficult to go back in time and change what happened.

Often the only real option is to forgive, accept and let it go under Neptune's grace.

Neptune can be incredibly idealistic.

And who doesn't love the idea of a brighter future...

...and maybe a miracle or two?

Trust.

Let it go.

Aim for an ideal that inspires you.

If you keep looking back at what went wrong, you're facing something you can't change.

Capricorn reminds us:

Take the lesson.

Keep your eye on the goal.

🐐 Think Mountain Goat

Think mountain goat.

You've earned gifts through your life experience that can get you to the top of that mountain.

Go with what you know.

Do what works for you.

This is where you can stand firm—

on what you personally know to be true.

In this Full Moon and Mercury retrograde, emotional intelligence is required.

Keep focused on where you're going.

Your earned wisdom and emotional maturity are your safest guides.

✨ The Opportunity

Using these planetary energies consciously and proactively is how we attune to their opportunities for empowerment.

The Victim archetype can be expected to test all of us this month.

Is it someone else's fault...

...or a choice you made?

Whatever dream you're moving towards...

Whatever future you're creating...

Bring your self-love and self-acceptance with you.

That's what gives you the strength to keep climbing.

🌟 Hope Meets Reality

Capricorn Moons can be wonderfully pragmatic.

With Neptune involved, we've got both hope and reality present in this Full Moon.

Watching your thoughts—and being conscious of the meaning you attach to events—is the fuel that gets you there.

⚡ Mars, Uranus & Jupiter

Mars enters Gemini on the 29th and is fast approaching Uranus.

This is a wild ride we're on.

Stay curious.

Stay free.

Our minds are our own.

Our voice has the power to create—or destroy.

Use this Mercury retrograde for honest reflection about where you place your energy.

Remember, Mercury rules Gemini.

When Mars and Uranus come together in Gemini during a retrograde period, it pays to be deeply honest with yourself.

Also on the 29th, Jupiter enters Leo.

Leo is ruled by the Sun, reminding us once again that what we focus on grows.

Jupiter in Leo is in the business of identity development.

Huge headway can be made if we align our focus and intentions with the person we are developing into.

This is an energy to open up...

...and see what's possible.

💜 Final Thoughts

What an amazing time we are living in.

And you make a difference to the unfolding possibilities.

Every single one of us does.

Sent with love,

💜💫🔮
