Prepare to get into your groove. When energetic Mars enters meticulous Virgo on Tuesday, we'll be blessed with a new vibration to work with, and could find ourselves accomplishing our objectives with extra precision and speed. We may also be more inclined to hold ourselves to a higher standard as the warrior planet moves through the mutable earth sign over the next seven weeks  — just try not to lose faith if things don't work out perfectly right away. 

On Wednesday, the pressure could be palpable as the empathy-ruling moon wanes into her third quarter in touchy Pisces. Evaluating your circumstances from an objective perspective will be key to navigating your relationships with grace during this moody lunation, so be sure to take a moment to think before reacting. Practising restraint will allow you to avoid unnecessary conflict and find the right way forward.  

Later on Wednesday or early Thursday, depending on your time zone, things could get a little foggy as expansive Jupiter squares delusional Neptune. The fantasies that we've created in our minds often don't match up with reality when these heavenly bodies clash, so try not to be too hard on yourself or others. Still, you'll want to be mindful of any romantic narratives you create under this influence — they could steer you down a path toward heartbreak. 

On Friday, we'll welcome the summer solstice as the spirit-driving sun moves into compassionate Cancer. This will be a beautiful day to gather your friends and loved ones to celebrate the longest day of the year in style, since we'll likely be feeling charged up and ready to enjoy the coming months with open hearts and renewed sincerity. Make plans to kick off the season with a splash. 

Then, dare to dream big on Sunday, when assertive Mars in diligent Virgo sextiles optimistic Jupiter in deep-feeling Cancer. Thanks to this helpful alignment of planets, we'll possess all the strength and inner wisdom we need to take purposeful action. Perhaps this will mean embracing your need to care for others and engaging in acts of service; consider how you can shape the world that you desire by practising generosity and kindness. 

Finally, if you've been ignoring some of your responsibilities, you may be in for a rude awakening on Sunday night as the ego-ruling sun squares strict Saturn. Think about how you might break up your tasks into smaller steps to avoid getting overwhelmed by your to-do list for the days ahead. Having trouble getting started? Just imagine how thankful the future version of yourself will be once you've put in the effort to get organized. 

Here is your horoscope for the week of Monday, June 16, 2025.

Aries

Does it feel like you're on a roll as of late, Aries? If so, you may have found yourself wondering how you can bottle this energy. Take a moment to think about what's helped you find your flow recently so you can create a schedule that supports your energy and productivity over the next seven weeks of Mars in Virgo. Meanwhile, this could be a beautiful time to work on your people skills, particularly if you notice some friction arising within your professional environment. Remember: collaboration, cooperation and communication will help you overcome any obstacles that come your way. 

Taurus

Get ready to mix things up, Taurus. Your playful side could start to come out this week, inspiring you to nurture your imagination, spice up your schedule and lean into your flirtatiousness. Single Taureans will likely be oozing ethereal confidence and may even pull a few new romantic connections into their orbit. Coupled up? You may find that you're in the mood to surprise your partner. Then, regardless of your relationship status, you could notice your inbox filling up with invitations of all kinds over the weekend. Enjoy spending the next four weeks socializing with your inner circle and becoming more involved with your local community.  

Gemini

Make an effort to be patient when it comes to financial matters this week, Gemini. While you may have been kept waiting for a raise, promotion or payment, you know that emotional outbursts will ultimately do more harm than good. Try to find an outlet for your frustrations instead of getting too frazzled. Meanwhile, a professional partnership or pitch could stall, seemingly without reason. Take solace in knowing that you likely don't have all the information at your disposal right now — and that some closed doors can lead us toward better opportunities in the long run. 

Cancer

What's on your plate these days, Cancer? From now through the next seven weeks, your career could pick up the pace, tempting you to add a whole new crop of tasks to your to-do list. But it's crucial to keep an eye on your existing commitments, since your social schedule could also be brimming with activity. Take some time to think before committing to anything, and speak up if you feel like you're being spread too thin. Meanwhile, as your astrological season kicks off, enjoy standing confidently in the spotlight. Your star will be shining brightly over the next four weeks — and you deserve all the praise you're about to receive.  

Leo

Prepare to take your foot off the gas, Leo. You're about to enter a four-week-long period of rest and reflection, when you'll be encouraged to take a step back from the busyness of the world and think about the habits and relationships that are no longer serving you. Once you've evaluated what you truly want to bring forward in your life, you'll be ready to get back out there with renewed confidence. Meanwhile, keeping a dream journal could help you connect with your intuition and prevent certain negative cycles from repeating themselves. Just ensure your head isn't too far up in the clouds this weekend, or you could end up in hot water.

Virgo

Are you ready to command attention, Virgo? From now through the next seven weeks, you could find that your aura is particularly magnetic and that others are happy to listen to whatever you have to share. People in your orbit might even perceive you as more fierce and mysterious than usual; enjoy making a memorable impression and taking up space. Then, over the weekend, you could notice your calendar starting to fill up with a wide variety of social engagements and activities. Try to be intentional about how you spend your free time over the next astrological month. 

Libra

Everyone needs a little private time to rest and reflect, Libra. And this week, you're invited to retreat to your safe space and think about how you express yourself emotionally and make space for your connections to thrive. Looking back on how you've shown up for others, in particular, may inspire you to re-evaluate how you nurture your relationships — and challenge you to invest more time in yourself. Meanwhile, on the career front, it could start to feel like some of your colleagues are making promises they can't deliver on. Let your keen instincts guide your next moves. 

Scorpio

Lower your stinger, Scorpio. From now through the next seven weeks, the company of others will help to keep you motivated and inspired, so consider saying yes to social visits and group activities of all kinds. You may even feel compelled to take on a leadership position in a club or sport during this time. Have fun being part of a collective, and don't be afraid to showcase your skills in the process. Over the weekend, you could also find an adventurous new attitude comes over you. This could be a brilliant time to change up your surroundings or sign up for a class to level up your knowledge. 

Sagittarius

If something seems too good to be true, it probably is, Sagittarius. Keep this in mind if you find yourself handling domestic matters this week, particularly related to investments, debts or inheritance. You'll be wise to take some extra time to consider all your options before making any decisions. Then, over the weekend, enjoy putting clues together and figuring out puzzles that once left you stumped. Your intuition and ability to read between the lines will be especially sharp from now through the next four weeks — and no subject will be too dark, intense or mysterious to dig into. 

Capricorn

Could you use a little getaway, Capricorn? Don't hesitate to plan a break at some point over the next seven weeks so you can stretch your wings and see the world. Who knows? Taking a look at how people outside of your community live could be just the inspiration you need to make positive changes to your space and daily routine. Meanwhile, you could find that relationships of all kinds start to take centre stage in your life as summer kicks off, helping you better understand how you fit into the lives of others. Now is a beautiful time to prioritize the needs of your nearest and dearest. 

Aquarius

Are you willing to lay your cards on the table, Aquarius? This week, being radically honest about your expectations could help you avoid conflict or even heartbreak. So make an effort to leave fear behind when opening up with your nearest and dearest — you'll likely find it's best to lead with love when searching for solutions. Meanwhile, you could find your mind shifting into problem-solving mode at work, helping you identify inconsistencies and errors with ease. Rest assured: this keen attention to detail won't go unnoticed, and your colleagues will feel thankful to have you in their corner. 

Pisces

Picking the right partner is often the key to success, Pisces. And from now through the next seven weeks, you'll learn about what qualities make for a truly great fit, especially when it comes to making money. Pay attention to the people who seem to match your energy and understand what you want to achieve, and start imagining what you might create with a real ally on your side. Over the weekend, you could also find your mind overflowing with fresh inspiration and ideas. Enjoy injecting creativity, romance and whimsy into everything you do as the summer season begins.
