The Cosmic Connection
with Ursula Duffy
Astrology, by definition, is the study of time and light. It is an art and science that has been utilized by humanity for millennia to provide a better understanding of how the Cosmos affect life on Earth. One’s personal horoscope, also known as a ‘birth’ or ‘natal chart’, is a snapshot of the Sun, Moon, planets and more at the moment of one’s birth date, time and birth location. This snapshot holds many keys and secrets to one’s personality, characteristics and can be considered one’s personal map, guidebook and lesson plan for life. Everything in the Cosmos continues moving beyond the moment of your birth and influences your life in various and cyclical ways. Cycles according to the rhythm of the Sun, Moon, planets, stars, seasons and even at specific ages influence your life and possibly your attitude towards life. The weekly horoscopes provided here by Shore Local Magazine are written based on your Rising Sign. These horoscopes are intended to provide guidance and insight based on these rhythms and the Cosmic connection to your lived experience. So much is written in the stars! It is my intention that these entries will assist you in deciphering what is encoded within you.
Horoscopes for
June 6 – June 12
♈ Aries: A clear channel is necessary to receive and communicate information. Slow down the pace this week purposefully dedicating some time to clearing your mind and journaling your thoughts and dreams.
♉ Taurus: Consistent dedication to your goals will pay off. Set clear intentions about how you want to increase your personal resources, remembering that courageous action and marching to the beat of your own drum will assist in standing out in the crowd.
♊ Gemini: In what ways can you fine tune your self-image in order to present a more authentic version of yourself? Challenges to who you are may come from an authority figure in the workplace. Be you and remember that every time you do results in more personal growth.
♋ Cancer: A deeper connection to yourself can be fostered by raising your consciousness. It may be a good time for a vacation, or even a retreat, that will nourish your Soul and result in feelings of deep replenishment.
♌ Leo: What do you really, truly want out of your life? It’s never too late to create a new vision for your future. Find your tribe and connect with people who really see you and make your heart sing, even if that means a career or relationship change.
♍ Virgo: An exciting, new chapter in your work lies ahead. Deepening the relationships to people that support you, and pruning the ones that do not, can be challenging yet pertinent parts of the process.
♎ Libra: If you’ve been pondering higher education, long-distance travel, teaching or publishing an artistic project, now’s the time to decide to go for it! Fresh, new energy awaits you saying yes and committing to moving forward.
♏ Scorpio: A more intimate, deeper dive into the mystery of yourself, your partner, your fears, your mortality or even your innate intuition can create a rewarding experience. Satisfy the curiosity of the new yearning within you.
♐ Sagittarius: If your closest relationships and partnerships do not feel like home, it’s time to move on. If your heart is infused with warmth it’s a yes, if not take action and usher in the opportunity for a new beginning.
♑ Capricorn: Feeling is healing and repressed emotions can stay stuck in the body causing disease. If you have not been communicating or speaking your truth, which can affect your health, now’s a good time to boss up and take care of business.
♒ Aquarius: There’s a big creative force brewing inside of you that wants to be birthed into the world. Overcome the confidence obstacles you’re facing and allow your rebellious flag to fly high. Only you can make this creative contribution to humanity.
♓ Pisces: Staying grounded during times of intensity can be difficult. It’s important to be able to decompress and retreat in the privacy of your own home. Create a space for retreat if you don’t already have one, or perhaps set intentions now for a new space more in alignment with your needs and sensitivities.
