This would be an ideal month to make an attempt to reinvent yourself in some way. Producers of supermarket items that we buy do this all the time. Shampoo to canned peas, toothpaste to frozen diet dinners, it seems all products scream "New! Improved! Try me!" from their shelves. And who can resist? Banners that proclaim changes inside are always intriguing. It's hard not to want to try the product to see what's new.

The same will be true for you. When others come to notice the small but significant changes that you've made, at first they won't know what it is. They'll wonder what exactly is it that you've done. They will clearly see your new confidence, your glow, and your obvious sense of optimism.

Did you fall in love? Lose weight? Arrange your hair differently? When they see the radiant color to your face, they'll ask, did you spend a day in the country? What, exactly, is it? Of course, it could be anything, but mainly, the changes you are working on within are now coming to the surface. Keep 'em guessing, dear Capricorn. With a chart that shows that you are just bursting to improve every part of you, you will have the time and motivation to turn over a new leaf or to begin a new direction.

Jupiter is on his way to Capricorn for the first time since 1996, and will soon board a rocket ship to your constellation. He won't arrive in Capricorn until late December, but once Jupiter does show up, you'll want to be ready.

June would be an ideal month to take a look at your life and decide what's working and what's not. Take at least one step to make your life happier, and in time your changes will snowball into bigger ones.

The month starts out with the full moon, which technically fell on May 31 but that still will exert a strong pull. You can think deeply about any shortcoming you feel you have and either shore it up or find someone to help you rid yourself of a bad habit. While you may have been determined to clean up your act the past, this time seems different. You will have the awesome power of Jupiter, the giver of gifts and luck, moving in tandem with this full moon during the first four days of the month. Long story short: There's nothing you can't achieve now if you put your mind to it. It would be a shame to waste this first class cosmic energy, so if you have a goal, take steps at the full moon to reach it. Results tend to show up quickly at full moons - another nice bonus.

While the first days of June will help you make a powerful, upbeat psychological shift, the second half the month will help you work on your body - how it looks, feels, and functions.

From June 14 on, you will have the help of a very positive new moon, your best new moon of the year for getting fit and strong. Begin your program in the days that closely follow this date, for if you do, you will be working with the cycles of the universe, and you should see impressive results.

With the new moon in social Gemini, you might want to find a buddy to do your new fitness regimen with you. Ask a friend or sibling to work out with you. Your sister might agree to play tennis with you twice a week, or your brother may be delighted to do a round of golf every Sunday with you. No sibling? A close cousin or close friend would be a great substitute. I mention siblings because Gemini rules sisters, brothers, and cousins, but others in your life would be fine to ask too, such as a sympathetic coworker who also wants to get fit. Or, for fun, be the hero of your department by organizing two company softball teams to play against each another. With Gemini, think in terms of two.

Whatever new plan you devise, your number one priority should be to remain consistent in carving out the time to exercise. Fortunately, as a disciplined Capricorn, you already know that it is more important to do some exercise each day than to put in long hours on one day and nothing for days after that. Experts say all of us should do at least 60 minutes of vigorous exercise each day, whether at the gym, engaged in a sport, or power walking or jogging. Don't let two days pass without doing exercise, assuming your doctor agrees. If you have to split up your active time to fit in that much exercise time, go right ahead.

Truly, on June 14 you will have the most important new moon of the year for initiating preventative health and fitness measures that stick. You will have ten days in which to begin, but the days closely following June 14 (June 15, 16, 17, and 18) will be your best. Any seeds you plant then will have the power to change your lifestyle in the whole year to come, as this period is THAT important. Medical and dental checkups and procedures are also favored, but if you need elective surgery, you may want to wait until late July to schedule your procedure.

On June 19, financial luck seems to follow you everywhere, thanks to a lovely interaction between Venus and fortunate Jupiter. Win a small prize or land a commission deal - there's no telling where your money will show up, but wherever it does will be exciting.

Mercury will be retrograde from June 15 to July 9, but you will feel the slowdown effects earlier. Don't plan to continue to make decisive actions up to the start date of Mercury retrograde (June 15) nor to pounce on the day it goes direct (July 16). In fact, those start and end dates are the very worst dates to make any sort of important initiation, such as to sign papers, buy or sell expensive items, take a new job, or sign a contract.

Instead, it would be best to stop doing major initiatives on June 6 and to resume things after the new moon in Cancer, July 16. Spend the intervening time while Mercury is retrograde fixing and redoing projects that require tweaking, and getting in touch with friends, colleagues, and clients you haven't seen in ages. People and projects from your past glow - those are the ones you will want to center your main attention on.

Mercury rules communication, negotiation, agreements, commerce, contracts, transportation, and shipping. It is never a good idea to make big initiations while Mercury is retrograde.

As an aside, Mercury rules commerce too, so if you need to shop for an expensive electronic item, jewelry, a car, or other expensive purchase, do so on any day from June 1 to 5, or wait until after the new moon next month, July 16.

Your residence, property, or a close family member will also be on your mind this month, due to the sustained presence of Mars, now in your home sector until June 25. You'll be very productive, too! Expect lots of noise and commotion to be going on at home as contractors, movers, repairmen, cable guys, or lots of friendly guests show up. This hubbub will be evident the moment June begins (although you may have seen some evidence of this in late May, too). Obviously, your home will be a magnet for others for some reason, and all of it appears to be positive.

June 19 would be an ideal day to think about future changes you want to make for your home. Jupiter and Mars will be in perfect sync.

Romantically, Mercury will retrograde in your house of steady relationships all month, so there's a good chance that you may change your mind about a person you've been seeing lately or used to date.

If you need to talk to your significant other, choose a day that falls between June 1 to 4 for at that time, Venus will still hover over your relationship sector, and Venus will help you find the right, most loving words to say to get your sweetheart to see your point of view.

Your love life will enter its most gorgeous phase the minute Mars begins to light your house of true love, for the first time in two years, from June 25 until August 7. This suggests you are beginning a whole new chapter in your love life - a very exciting prospect. Circle the date - June 25! Since Mercury will be retrograde during the front part of this period, you may decide to reconsider someone you once loved to see if you could create reconciliation. It would be a good time to investigate whether the two of you still have certain magic together.

The icing on the cake will be the appearance of the full moon on June 30 in Capricorn, putting you in the spotlight. At long last, you will know what you need to do to make you happy. All sorts of important developments will be reaching a high point in your life, on many levels. Thanks to a friendly alignment of Uranus, you can expect a few surprises to pop up on this truly terrific day for romance. Still, as happy as this day may be, Saturn will be moving close to Venus, a tiny warning not to get carried away! (Hey, that's a good problem, dear Capricorn!)

If you were born on or within five days of December 29, you will benefit most from the lyrical influence of this important full moon in your sign.

Best date nights: June 1 - 4, 7, 11, 16, 19, 24, 25, 29 - 30


Summary

You may be the zodiac's most ardent workaholic, but this month you will need to split your priorities between the demands of work and the needs of home and family. If you want to buy, sell, rent, renovate, or fix up your space, you'll find plenty of exciting options. If you plan to spend a significant amount of money this month, do so in June's first few days for best results.

One of your parents may need you to help him or her in some way, and if so, you will find excellent options now.

June 4 will be especially outstanding for finding things of beauty and value for your home. However, as the month moves forward, keep in mind that Mercury will retrograde from June 15 to July 9, not a time to make major purchases, such as for furniture or electronics. Wait until mid-July to do so for best luck.

Your own health can now be fortified in impressive ways in June, too. At the start of the month you will have the uplifting psychological effects of the positive full moon that fell on May 31 but that will still be helpful and strong as June begins. If you want to talk over a problem with a psychologist or enter a rehab center, do so in June's first four days.

At the new moon June 14, you'll become energized and enthusiastic about reaching a new fitness level. It's a superb time to get active, perhaps by taking lessons in a new sport or by signing up for a package of training sessions at the gym. Begin mid-month and see your efforts pay off in the months ahead. You'll not only feel like a million you'll look like one, too. This same new moon would be ideal for attending to all sorts of medical checkups and procedures, including a visit to the dentist.

Romance will be strong this month, too. Attached? Take full advantage of glittering vibes from Venus in your relationship sector from June 1 - 5. Plan a romantic dinner by the sea or better yet, a surprise weekend trip to a quaint little hotel in the mountains.

Looking for love or having found it, your best romantic moments will arrive once Mars moves into your new love sector on June 24 to August 7, for a seven-week stay, a sure sign your summer is about to take an upturn socially, in the most lively and animated way.

With a full moon in Capricorn on June 30, your needs and decisions will reach a critical phase. Everything that happens at this time will be unexpected - joyfully so. If you have children, you'll want to spend time laughing, cuddling, and exploring new sights together. If you hope to have a baby, a meaningful discussion with your partner is likely to come up.

All over, you'll feel vibrant, creative, and adventuresome, ready to open the door on a whole new part of life. You'll feel clear about what you need to make you happy, the first step in making it so!
