Lately you've been thinking a lot about money. Saturn, the taskmaster planet that uses tough love to teach us lessons, has moved into your eighth house of other people's money. This house rules credit cards, student loans, taxes, mortgage payments and re-financing plans, and court and other legal cash settlements, including division of property in a divorce or child support payments. You get the idea - the eighth house is about money other than the money you are paid by salary. Generally it represents money that comes in or out in large chucks.

This month, on June 14, Saturn will back out of your financial house and give you a breather on all your focus on money. Saturn will return to this area on September 17. The coming two years, until December 2019, will teach you a great deal about the value of money and may coax you to save more of what you earn. In fact, you may leave this rare phase richer than when you entered it. Saturn takes 29 years to circle the Sun, so in the time Saturn spends with you, he will want you to vividly remember all his teachings. The last time Saturn was at this position, it was from November 1985 to November 1988. You may be too young to remember this phase or were not even born yet. If you do remember that phase, think back and see what themes emerged. The new cycle will be different. It's likely that the second tour of Saturn will be easier, for you have already learned so much from the first visit of Saturn in those years.

The full moon of June 2 in Sagittarius at 12 degrees will put a lot of emphasis on your financial eighth house of other people's money. While you may be holding your forehead and saying to yourself, "What next? I can't stand this!" wait - this full moon will be quite friendly. In fact, you may see an influx of cash, and not necessarily see a lot of money go out. Of course, when the cash comes in, you will have the option to pay off all or part of a debt, bringing on a warm feeling of relief in you.

Why do I love this particular full moon for you? It will receive lovely vibrations from Jupiter, giver of gifts and luck, from your solar fourth house of home and family, which tells me this full moon may help you settle a home-related matter that costs significant cash.

For example, you may be approved for a home improvement loan, mortgage, or refinancing plan from the bank. Or, your parents may offer you a cash loan or outright gift of cash so that you can make a down payment on a condo or house. Money seems to come to you unexpectedly, as Uranus will be beaming his golden beams to you too, and Uranus rules out-of-the-blue surprises. The full moon will be conjunct Mars, so you will be eager to get your financial matter settled, but wait until Mercury stops retrograding on June 11. Add a few days past June 11 if you are signing a contract - for signing I like the day after the new moon, June 17.

During the eleven first days of June, through June 11, it would not be wise to buy a new electronic item, appliance, mattress, piece of furniture, or a car, for these products are expensive and hard to return. Mercury rules the moving parts within any machine, and during these phases, if a gear is wearing down and you found out about it lately (or soon will), you'll need to make a rush trip to the repair shop. You will be much more satisfied with your purchase if you wait until after June 11, and if you are not desperate, you might want to wait a bit longer, until June 27, the date Mercury's orbit will be even more regulated. Mercury rules intellect, and when Mercury is retrograde, your judgment will be off because the qualifiers you are using to make your decision will soon change, often quite drastically

The start of June has a ribbon of days that is simply sensational. It starts with June 5, when Mars in Gemini in your salary and personal savings house will signal lucky Jupiter in Leo down in your real estate/ home/ family sector. You will soon see that when it comes to making any kind of improvements in the home, the planets this month have cooked up a lot of lucky breaks. On this same day, Venus will move into Leo and fill your home sector - you will prove this month that you have a flair for decorating and entertaining, a talent that will captivate your friends.

On Monday, June 8, you'll be luckier than a Leprechaun, for in a four-star day, the Sun (authority figures) and Jupiter (luck and happiness) will work together on your behalf. You'll find you are at the right place at precisely the right time when it comes to any matter related to your living situation. You would be would be wise to browse home spaces and things you might have on your list to buy. Act after Mercury goes direct, after June 11, or better yet on or after June 27.

On June 9, Mars in Gemini, now based in your financial second house of earned income, will be pinged by Uranus in a happy way, and you may find something you simply must buy. You will be driven by impulse, but it all seems worth the expense - see how you feel. Lately, your expenses have been running high, so if you can put off a purchase that you don't need immediately, it may be a good idea to wait a few weeks. However, on this day, you will likely discover an item you've wanted to buy for a long time, and suddenly you'll find it. Go ahead, get it!

June 10 may bring sensational news about your career, again, completely unexpectedly. The Sun and Uranus will be in warm and friendly sync, and a confidential meeting may lead to an offer out of the blue.

On the new moon, June 16, in Gemini, 25 degrees, you must gather up your courage and ask for a raise. You deserve a raise, and all you must do in the days that FOLLOW this date is ask for it. If you are self-employed, gently raise your fees and see how customers react. Whether you are self-employed or are employed by others, your recent high expenses will give you the motivation to ask for that increase.

With Uranus so friendly to this new moon, you are likely to get it, even though you may be doubtful as you read this. Best of all, Jupiter will be at the right place in the sky to help you and see that you do well with your plan to make more money. How can you fail?

Now we come to a day, June 22, that I will award five stars - a glittering diamond of a day, when all surprises should be happy ones, especially if your focus is buying, renovating, repairing, or designing your home. Your parents are also covered by the solar fourth house, so they, too, may again be helpful. Think about your parents - or someone you think of as a parent. Have you been trying to help your parent with no ideal option coming to you?

This day, when Jupiter in Leo will work with Uranus in Aries, could provide you the breakthrough you had hoped to find. As you see, this month has a very active role for Uranus to play (he's the planet of surprise events), and in all these aspects, in a very positive way. Keep your antenna up, because when luck strikes on June 22 (or in the two days leading to this day), you will have to react quickly.

These are very high-powered planets, and they will not meet in these signs again in your lifetime, as their orbits move at vastly different speeds. If your aim is to make exceptional improvements in your living situation, Jupiter and Uranus will do their best to help you. Family support may be very strong for you now too. Something you are not counting on will burst forth to give you the breakthrough you need.

You will be able to travel this month because Mars will move into your third house of short distance getaways, so you will get some fun relief from working so hard with your calculator. A terrific weekend to pack your bags and go would be June 27-28, when Venus, planet of happiness, romance, pampering and good looks, will be in perfect angle to Uranus too. This will bubble up great chemistry that you'll find with others you meet. Venus will be in Leo and Uranus, in Aries. If you would rather give a party at home, that too would be a superb idea. What a way to end the month!

One more thought: by month's end you will come close to the full moon in Capricorn on July 1. This is another sweet full moon, and in a year that has not given us a lot of outstanding full moons, the second half of 2015 will bring lots more good news, this day being one of them.

July 1 will bring a full moon in Capricorn, a sweet full moon, with loving support from Neptune - you may get some amazing publicity - but even more important on the same day, Venus will make a conjunction to the Sun. This only happens rarely, usually once a year (we will have three conjunctions of Venus to Jupiter this year, the next being August 4, but by then Venus will be weak in retrograde motion, and your best one ever, on October 25 - perfect for romance.)

I feel that on July 1, with your ruler, Taurus, conjunct Jupiter, and both favorable planets associated with money and profit (among other things), you may close on a house or other piece of property, either as buyer or seller. I feel you'll get your best price now, prior to the exit of Jupiter in Leo, currently in your solar fourth house of home, family and property.

I wanted you to have this information now, in case you are hoping to sell or buy property soon. July is perfect for taking bids. Barring any tough aspects in your individual chart that would create obstacles that I cannot see from where I sit, I feel you will get your home / property wish this month. Make a big push to buy or sell, starting the moment Mercury goes direct, for it looks like talks would be concluded fast, by the end of June or early July.

If you want to stay in your present home, Venus and Jupiter will have their rare meeting in your solar fourth house of home, so these two little planets will act like loving relatives to help you create a home you always wanted. You can stage a successful renovation, or order a paint job to refresh every room. You can undergo a repair project, or enjoy showing off your decorating skills when you give several rooms a decorating upgrade.

If you live in the country or suburbs, you might enjoy staging a massive (or small) landscaping project - Venus rules flowers, shrubs, and the beautification of just about anything, dear Taurus, and of all signs, you truly appreciate all that Mother Nature has to offer. Live in the city? You can pick up flowering plants to soften your interior and enjoy a boost in spirits every time you look at the faces of your flowers.

You seem ready to have a close look at your finances and to be sure they are on steady ground. Look at all areas, from reviewing your evolving insurance needs, to investments, spending, and saving programs to keep goals on track. You may be concentrating on a achieving a dream, such as to buy a condo or go back to graduate school, and the financial decisions you make this month would lead you in the right direction.

You seem particularly focused on joint financial funds on the full moon June 2. Neptune will be in hard angle to that moon, causing an obstacle. Ask for backup - you may find errors or inaccuracies, or someone may try to obscure the full financial picture. Still, Uranus may suddenly bring a breakthrough, so keep digging.

If you are trying to divide property in a divorce, it's a good time to start to try to come to agreement for a fair solution. Alternatively, the early part of June will be for speaking with your banker, credit card company, soon-to-be-ex, government official if you owe taxes, or venture capitalist, and you may get unusually good news instantly, but again, with Neptune acting up, ask many questions about the small details of the statements you are seeing or deals you may be agreeing to at the time. Neptune is famous for manufacturing lots of cotton candy fog, pretty if it's coming over the mountains in San Francisco morning, but potentially devastating if that fog is covering facts in a financial deal.

One day that will help you with any type of real estate, lease, contractor, or buying or selling of property will be when Mars will work with Jupiter on your behalf, June 5, and the funds you need seem to come, right on time.

The second half of the month, after the new moon June 16, you will focus more on your own ability to bring in more money by getting a raise in salary, charging higher fees, or by generating more business. Even if you assume you can't increase your income, your chart says you can, so gather up your courage and ask for a raise. When presenting your case, dot every "i" and to cross every "t" for a perfect set of reasons that can be verified.

Saturn will slip back into Scorpio on June 14 until September 17, and Scorpio is a difficult spot for you. If you were born the very late in the sign, say, near May 18-20, you will likely feel tension with a partner until Saturn leaves Scorpio in mid-September, not to return until 2041. Use a delicate touch in negotiations, such as in working toward the division of property in a divorce, rather than risk locking horns.

Saturn opposed to the Sun is a draining aspect, so make a concerted effort to stay strong and healthy from now through September. Many Taurus had health problems (hopefully, not you), but if you did suffer, follow your doctor's advice, and if you can't get relief, get a second opinion.

June 22 will be a five-star day, for Jupiter and Uranus will be in conversation, an exceedingly rare and glittering aspect. Your efforts to find the perfect home or to create one out of the space you already have will be vastly helped on this day, as well over the weekend prior, June 20-21. News would come suddenly, out of the blue, and you'd have to be decisive to take opportunity when it comes up. Browse spaces, investigate contractors, and take bids if you are about to sell, or put in a bid if you hope to buy. Look at furniture and appliances - you may find the ideal piece you've long searched to find. Act on this ideal day, June 22, for home and family-related actions.

The following weekend, June 27-28, and June 29, when your ruler, Venus, and Uranus will be in sync, will also be a bright and unusually lucky day for home-and-family related actions. Make a note of it!

Mars will enter Cancer on June 24 to stay until August 8, allowing you to travel and have fun over weekends. You seem to stay in a close range from home - perhaps you buy a summer share of a cottage with friends during this period - and that would be a great idea. Your career will explode with good news in August, so take your time off now, while you can do so. This month, your career brings unexpected good news August 10.

July 1 will bring a lovely interaction between Neptune and the full moon, raising your creativity and also bringing you the likelihood for a glamorous romantic episode. At the same time, your ruler, Venus, will meet with Jupiter, a gorgeous coming together. Your sign and Libra are both ruled by Venus, so when your ruler is under fantastic rays, you are too!

The full moon June 2 will be time to attend to financial details. Review your present needs for insurance, and analyze how your investment portfolio is doing. Neptune will be active, so make sure what you see is accurate. Ask questions, demand backup, and keep digging if you find something that does not add up.

Venus is your ruler, so note next month: Venus will retrograde next month July 25 to September 6. Do what you need to do before that happens. Also if you are planning any radical changes to your appearance, do it now, not while Venus is retrograde.

Saturn will move back to Scorpio June 14 to September 17. You may have difficulties with a partner during that time - make an effort to be conciliatory. Watch health, as Saturn opposed to your Sun can be draining.
