The L.A. Taco Horoscope for June 2019

[dropcap size=big]S[/dropcap]un Worshipers, rejoice. June brings health and wealth to the City of Angels. On the 17th, the Strawberry Moon – so named by the Algonquin Tribe – brings summer’s sweetness. Both this Moon (and a very sparkly meteor shower on the 20th ) brighten the
constellation Ophiuchus. In Greek Mythology, this constellation represents the God of
Medicine, and physical stamina is supported throughout June. Hit the gym. Hit the trail. Hit the beach. Summer officially opens with the Solstice on the 21st . How will you spend
the longest day of the year? Living in this town gives you plenty of fun options.

Aries (March 21 – April 20)

June fattens the Ram’s wallet, beginning on the 3rd when the New Moon invigorates your Personal Income House. Make a new budget and stick to it. More money news comes on the 17th, when the Strawberry Moon sweetens your House of Joint Income. This Full Moon represents bounty and blessings. The Ophiuchid Meteor Shower also supports your bank account, energizing your Joint Income House on the 20th.  Even the Solstice points to Money. When the Sun spends the longest day of the year energizing your House of Personal Income, celebrate the start of summer with a flush bankroll.

Taurus (April 21 – May 21)

Your birthday may have already passed, Bull, but June brings a belated present. When the New Moon lands in your constellation on the 3rd, new projects benefit from your famous work ethic.

Once again, the solar energy is in your Karma House. Sow what you want to reap.

Ophiuchus (November 29 – December 17)

You know that friend your parents didn’t like? The fun one? That friend is you, Snake – Bearer, and this month you encourage the whole Zodiac to break curfew and steal the car keys. Rebels win June when lucky Jupiter visits your constellation (June 10th), rewarding all risk takers with their hearts’ desires. And Ophiuchus hosts both the sweet Strawberry Moon (June 17th) and a Meteor Shower (June 20th).  These events bring blessings and energy to the cool kids. You were right all along, playing by the rules is for losers.
