There is always something about June that has always felt right to me. A mid-way checkpoint for the year, a moment to look back and ahead. The touch of warmth is no longer a lingering presence but a more settled feeling. The long-awaited summer plans all coming into effect. It is a canvas of whatever we want to paint. Now, I could have a slight bias here as I myself am a June baby. But celebrating my birthday has never been a day I enjoyed – a core belief I also need to challenge – if you know, you know.
The art of zodiacs and horoscopes was not something I ever enjoyed, nor had complete faith in – but somehow everyone always knows I am a Gemini, so I don’t know what that means – but nonetheless, what it represents, we cannot negate the energy that surrounds the month of June. It is dichotically (and chaotically) infused in many ways. Geminis are described to have alternating personalities – bullshit – but the more I sit with this ideology, the conclusion I come to is that the true nature of June is bilateral.
Seen through the shifts of nature, through its chronology, inner reflection, and meaning, June rests on the idea of a midpoint. What I thought 2024 was going to be like, how I anticipated, how I thought I would feel, how I would change for the better, I didn’t. Not to take away my autonomy or place blame where it doesn’t belong. I have found that outside forces and influences do win sometimes. So when June 01 rolled up, it not only brought the anticipation of my birth anniversary but, more than anything, a new chance to take back my flow that was not working this way. I often say the choice is powerful. So, no matter what forces were in play for you, you can choose to make the change you need as this month rolls out. Why it will work – because it’s time for the other twin of the Gemini force to make its resurgence. Now, this might not be true whatsoever, but I need a win, so I am going to choose to be a believer.
