June—a month carried on curious winds and quick thinking, infused with the light and lively energy of Gemini season. This is a time of expanding your perspective, connecting ideas, and exploring the many facets of your identity through writing and communication.

With the Gemini New Moon arriving at the end of May we step into June ready to set intentions that focus on learning, expressing, and aligning our minds with our deepest desires. As we move through each moon phase this month—from the Virgo first quarter moon's call for mindful routines to the Sagittarius full moon’s bold invitation to explore and the Pisces last quarter moon’s gentle reminder to surrender and heal—you’re invited to use the moon cycle as inspiration for personal growth, renewal, and self-connection.

By working with these lunar energies you can bring more clarity, growth, and self-awareness to your life. Follow along with the journal prompts, self-care rituals, and affirmations to stay attuned to the emotional and energetic shifts of each moon phase in the month of June.

June invites you to engage with life through curiosity, care, adventure, and reflection. Gemini season reminds us that through every conversation, every thought, and every shift in awareness, we are shaping the story of who we are becoming. As the moon moves through these four signs, focus on balancing movement with stillness, learning with rest, and ambition with surrender. You don’t have to have all the answers—just a willingness to stay open to discovery, to healing, and to your own inner voice.
