Aries (March 21—April 19)
Although you’re energetic and rambunctious, you are wanting to spend time at home relaxing rather than going outside to run wild with your pack. June 10th’s solar eclipse energy paired with Mercury retrograde (which lasts until June 22nd) will heighten your nerves and anxiety, which is why you’ll find solace bundled and cuddled up in bed with your pet parents on June 20th. When June 27th comes around, you’ll be back to being a scenester.
Taurus (April 20—May 20)
Even though you like nice treats and gifts, it does not mean that you define your value through material possessions. It’s time that you set the record straight with your pet family on June 2nd, 10th, and 14th to let them know you prefer hugs, love, and kindness instead of the newest chew toy at the store. This will lead you towards a better and tender dynamic with your pet parents by June 27th.
Gemini (May 21—June 20)
This month will make you lost in a daydream. The solar eclipse on June 10th and Mercury’s planetary moonwalk is urging you to revisit your youthful sentiments and feelings. It’ll let you explore the possibilities and opportunities of yesteryear, then inspire you to let your old goals take flight. You’re having wondrous thoughts about the future on June 22nd and 25th. Let these visions inspire you to live through your heart and embrace your passions.
Cancer (June 21–July 22)
There has been a lot of drama with your squad. And, it’ll get more intense before it gets better. All the howling, barking, hissing, and silent treatment will take a turn for the worse on June 14th. The good news is that the full moon on June 24th offers you all a time to reconnect and make amends with each other. The negative vibes and resentments will be squashed by the end of the month.

The solar eclipse on June 10th and Mercury’s moonwalk (which lasts until June 22nd) unwraps a lot of past baggage that you’ve been refusing to deal with for quite a while. Remembering your memories and discussing them will allow you to embrace the good old days with your pack. This will bring you closer together and help heal a lot of trauma during Jupiter and Neptune’s retrograde which starts on June 20th and 25th.
Capricorn (December 22—January 19)
Aren’t you the busy bee this month? All the running around you’re doing at the dog park during the solar eclipse on June 10th will give you a lot of energy to boost your vibe.

Don’t forget to let your crew know you appreciate their adoration and kindness.
Aquarius (January 20—February 18)
The solar eclipse on June 10th leaves you longing for extra affection, support, and cuddles.

Don’t be too thirsty for their love, as you’ll quickly learn that they truly care for you. Your pet parents have just been busy with work and maintaining the best life for you.
Pisces (February 19—March 20)
All work and no downtime can make you very cranky. Instead of running from dog park meetup to extracurricular activities on June 10th, try to incorporate a nap or have a restful evening at home with your pet parents. Overdoing it will deplete your energies on June 14th. Take a break to ensure goodness with others on June 24th, 20th, and 25th. If not, you will be exhausted by the time the 27th rolls around.
