General Daily Insight for June 24, 2024

A current of intensity runs under today’s surface, like a tremoring earthquake beneath our feet. The Moon in Aquarius begins by conjoining Pluto at 1:50 am EDT, bringing out our shadow sides — for better or worse. The Moon will then trine excitable Jupiter in Gemini and stumble over Venus in Cancer, which could entice us into getting carried away. A final lunar square to Mars in Taurus will require us to maintain a cool head to avoid getting into trouble.

Aries

March 21 – April 19

Power plays may occur on the social scene at any moment. The Moon is conjoining nefarious Pluto in your 11th House of Connectivity, stirring up competitiveness and potential disagreements if you aren’t careful. It is not your job to keep everyone in check, but it couldn’t hurt to keep an eye on things! If you notice that tempers are rising, do your best to find a way to diffuse the situation. Others should be grateful for your efforts to keep the mood light.

Taurus

April 20 – May 20

There’s no need to push yourself over the finish line. It may be tempting to go all in as the Moon conjoins Pluto in your ambitious 10th house, but Pluto enables you to go a bit too far in your search for success. Be wary of getting too wrapped up in chasing first place! Without a doubt, you can make progress, but there’s nothing to be gained if Pluto tempts you to act in a way you might later regret. Proceed with caution.

Gemini

May 21 – June 20

Widen your search radius, Gemini! It’s time to look beyond what you know as the Moon in your 9th House of Journeys aligns with alchemical Pluto, giving you that extra push to seek unfamiliar experiences outside of your usual routine. You don’t need to cross borders to learn more about the world — then again, that couldn’t hurt. It may be time to get that passport dusted off. A gorgeous horizon is just waiting for you to show up and explore it.

Cancer

June 21 – July 22

A storm is brewing in your personal life. The Moon in your secretive 8th house is bringing up the most serious aspects of your relationships, and a lunar conjunction to Pluto in this sector could rock the boat in any connection. You may find another person is unhelpful or unwilling to support you in the way you anticipated, or that a recent partnership needs work on both sides before you can get to a better place together. Finances could be an especially volatile subject.

Leo

July 23 – August 22

People aren’t playing around today, even if you wish they would. All kinds of connections are subject to heaviness as the Moon in your 7th House of Relationships conjoins Pluto, bringing out your shadow side — and theirs. Motives may not be as friendly or objective as you might think, so don’t sign yourself over to something or commit to an offer without reading every word of the fine print first. That being said, you can make progress with others if you reject drama.

Virgo

August 23 – September 22

Extremes of anything aren’t helpful at present. Going overboard could happen in the blink of an eye as the Moon eggs on Pluto in your practicality sector, driving you to be at your best without room for failure. Having so much firepower is terrific, but if you burn out along the way, then what’s the point? If you want to make improvements, then go ahead, but don’t set outlandish goals for yourself. You know yourself better than anyone else, so act like it.

Libra

September 23 – October 22

Taking a gamble on yourself can be exciting, but it isn’t always worth it. You may be persuaded to see how far you can test your limits as the Moon in your spotlight-seeking 5th house aligns with all-or-nothing Pluto. It’ll be hard to resist the urge to take big risks in search of big rewards! Instead of blindly thrusting yourself into any situation, analyze what’s at stake before making any bet. If you aren’t certain you can handle losing, don’t go all in.

Scorpio

October 23 – November 21

Your emotions carry extra weight at the moment. This added intensity is due to the Moon and Pluto aligning in your feelings sector, which could make you more reactive than usual, with your responses potentially erring into extremism. That doesn’t mean you can’t get a grip and maintain your grace as needed, simply that you may find yourself tempted to wallow in any trouble around you. If, however, you rise above this temptation, you may find a wonderful sense of peace on the other side.

Sagittarius

November 22 – December 21

A few potholes are complicating the road ahead of you. You’ll need to watch your step as the Moon and Pluto sync up in your 3rd House of Buzz, meaning complications or misunderstandings are more likely than usual. People may prove less than helpful, or you could get wrapped up in a particular issue — only to realize you’ve wasted your time with something that doesn’t matter as much as you thought. Move forward carefully, so you don’t regret the steps you take.

Capricorn

December 22 – January 19

Overemphasizing money and what it can do for you is a real, ongoing risk. Strength is permeating through your 2nd House of Resources as the encouraging Moon conjoins impactful Pluto in this sector. This makes it practically child’s play for you to put all your efforts into generating more money to buy more things, whatever they might be. It’s all well and good to work hard, but remember that Pluto can compromise your values. Make sure you’re working for the right reasons!

Aquarius

January 20 – February 18

Fences are built for a reason — you don’t need to test them. The Moon in your sign is conjoining Pluto, which may increase your natural intensity. This power can be useful when you channel it well and in a healthy manner, but it might abruptly cause problems if you allow the harsher aspects of Pluto to tempt you into testing reasonable boundaries. You’re allowed to exert power as you see fit, but do so responsibly to avoid consequences coming back to bite you.

Pisces

February 19 – March 20

Something is tickling your brain that you can’t easily put your finger on. The Moon is conjoining Pluto in your subconscious sector, sending out shockwaves and signals from just outside of your peripheral vision. Don’t turn yourself inside out hoping to figure out what is going on, or what message the universe is trying to send you. It will arrive at the right moment, and you won’t be able to miss it. Until then, however, a few question marks are going to hover overhead.
