Last month, I claimed May was the chillest month so far in 2026. June, however, has some of the best astrology of the whole year, so whenever and wherever gentle indulgence, tenderness and joy offer themselves to you, I hope you enjoy them to the fullest extent. Both July and August host complicated skies, so take early June as the peak summer experience.
The sweetness of June is due in large part to the co-presence of both Jupiter and Venus in the sign of Cancer. These two planets make the best of life and value cooperation, pleasure and abundance. The climax of their union will occur on the 9th, a moment of closeness, comfort and fertility in whichever sector Cancer falls in your chart.
The coming together of Venus and Jupiter also marks the final weeks of Jupiter’s time in Cancer, where it’s been for a full year. Jupiter is said to be ‘exalted’ in Cancer, meaning that the things Jupiter represents—abundance, social connectedness, optimism and expansion—are well suited to Cancer’s fertile waters. Jupiter thrives in a Cancerian environment, nurturing like a generous caregiver.
But Jupiter only spends a year in each sign, and its time in Cancer is wrapping up. By the 29th, Jupiter will leave Cancer for Leo. In Leo, Jupiter supports those in power, bringing a boisterous and brave aura to leaders of all kinds. In a personal way, Jupiter will support the aims and actions of your most authentic self or the search for that self if you feel disconnected from it. Jupiter will remain in Leo until July 2027.
