Your Weekly Horoscope for June 13, 2021
Alex Sandoval
The last full week of Mercury retrograde is thankfully fairly benign and quiet astrologically, with one exception: a major clash between two big planets. Saturn, which oversees structure and tradition, and Uranus, the planet of revolution and rebellion.
But first, on Sunday, June 13, romantic Venus forms a friendly sextile to game-changing Uranus, cranking up your appetite for fun, change, and excitement in love and friendship. The same day, the emotional moon pairs up with go-getter Mars in driven, passionate Leo, amplifying confidence and making it easier to take the initiative to fulfill your desires. And then the confident sun, still making its way through airy Gemini, forms a tense square to dreamy Neptune in Pisces, which sets a foggy, confusing, escapism-fueled tone - but there really is no day that's better suited to that than a lazy Sunday, right?
The next day, Monday, June 14, taskmaster Saturn in contrarian Aquarius squares changemaker Uranus in stubborn Taurus for the second time this year. The first time was on February 17, and it'll happen once more on December 24. These squares could mark turning points when you feel the old guard clashing with a push for upheaval and moving in a new direction. You could experience unexpected restrictions or restrictive shifts. It might sound like a total headache, but the idea is to ultimately lead you to 86'ing structures and limits in your life (think: toxic relationships or unhealthy patterns) that aren't serving you any longer.
On Tuesday, June 15, the moon in look-at-me Leo forms a sweet sextile first to messenger Mercury and then to the confident sun, both in communicative Gemini, supporting self-expression.
Thursday, June 17 brings a sweet trine between the emotional moon in Virgo and transformative Pluto in Capricorn, and your intuition could be even easier to tune into and trust than usual. (Related: What Your Moon Sign Says About Your Personality and Life Path)
The week wraps up on Saturday, June 19 with two trines from the moon in Libra to taskmaster Saturn in Aquarius - amplifying your ability to work through tough, heartfelt issues and to commit emotionally - and then to Mercury in Gemini, helping to bring how you're thinking and speaking in sync with how you're feeling.

Then, on Monday, June 14, you'll want to think back to February 17 when you likely felt the first pangs of wanting to strike out on your own when bringing in cash (think: going freelance, pouring more energy into a side hustle you've got going on with friends), thanks to taskmaster Saturn in your eleventh house of networking squaring off against revolutionary Uranus in your second house of income. Now, you could be reminded why you were in that headspace and start making moves to tear down or shake up structures that stand in the way of your long-term financial wishes.
