The Summer Solstice Is Here and the Universe Is Having a Pool Party

Must Read

Welcome to summer! The season officially begins on June 20 with the summer solstice and the start of Cancer season. The summer solstice is the longest day of the year, which means you should be out celebrating!

Moments before the Sun switches signs, it forms a square with Neptune, creating passion, confusion, and intense emotions. However, the vibe changes for the better when the solstice commences at 4:51 p.m. Eastern Time. With the Moon in Sagittarius during all this, you’ll be in the mood for FUN.

Enjoy this magical time of the year and plant intentions that can evolve in the months ahead. My advice: Set an intention during the solstice, because there’s a Full Moon on the following day. All this cosmic energy will push you to success. You got this!

Read your horoscope for the summer solstice:

Aries

If you’re stressed out, it’s time to act young. Play board games. Catch up with friends who remind you of the good old days. Don’t adhere to a schedule. Most importantly, have fun without caring about what others are saying or thinking.

Taurus

You live for your daily routine, but doing an activity that requires you to do something totally new will expand your horizons for the better. Take a day trip to a nearby town! Try a new restaurant! I know going outside your comfort zone is stressful, but taking small steps in a different direction will help you grow.

Gemini

The summer solstice is bringing up some deep emotions and making you feel reflective. It’s okay if you need a moment to be in your feels. However, if you want to text your ex (especially after a few cocktails), take my advice and resist! Call your bestie instead.

Cancer

Coming out of your shell for the summer might be hard because you’re so worried about what your S.O./crush is up to. Don’t be too clingy! Let them do what they want and you can do what you want. It’ll be nice to have freedom during the solstice!

Leo

You’re a proud diva, but right now, it’s time to play nice and put the attitude away. You’ll find that doing your best to be cool, calm, and chill will pay off. And yes, that means taking the back seat going with the flow when your friends want to be the ones to make plans.

Virgo

You’re feeling cute and confident today, so use it to your advantage and flirt your way through the solstice. If you’re single, put yourself out there on the dating apps to meet a new boo. You could connect with someone who has the potential to become more than a first date. If you’re coupled up, plan a fun date night.

Libra

It’s essential to be true to yourself, and that’s especially true during the solstice. You might be presented with a situation that promises to boost your bank account and give you professional exposure. However, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Take time to investigate and see if it’s in line with your high moral standards, because it’s probably not.

Scorpio

You’ve been a busy bee lately, and it’s only natural that you want to decompress from the daily buzz at work. Take a meditative and relaxing bath, complete with seasonal flowers. It’ll help you release the stagnant energy and bring in new vibes to take you into summer.

Sagittarius

To put it simply, you’re going to feel the energetic change of the solstice in a deep way. In fact, you’ll be trained. So don’t have to be pressured into hanging out after work with colleagues or friends. Go home and hit the hay. Don’t let FOMO keep you from getting some shut-eye!

Capricorn

You might find yourself feeling more open to connecting with your special someone during the summer solstice. The Sun is shining on your 7th House of relationships, so finding a balance between your needs and those of your partner/crush/date/FWB will be easier to do. You’re yearning for a deeper bond!

Aquarius

All the hard work you’ve put into organizing plans for your crew is paying off. Let your friends celebrate the effort you put into accommodating everyone’s needs. Don’t get bashful when they give you acknowledgement and love. Cheers to you, Aquarius!

Pisces

If you’re longing to stay at home and chill, do what feels best for your body, mind, and spirit. But that doesn’t mean you can’t invite a friend or three over for a Love Island watch party. Soak up the positive vibes, even if you’re just watching TV.
