Sky Notes Weekly - May 31st - June 7th June kicks off on a full moon in Sagittarius, and Tracy and Lillian dig into what that means when Mercury moves into Cancer for an absurdly long stay — June 1st all the way to August 10th. It's part of a bigger pattern this year: Mercury's retrogrades are all happening in water signs, so it parks in each one for ages and gets a lot less logical than usual. Add a month with almost no earth element to keep anyone grounded, and you've got loud opinions, long-lasting impressions, and a lot of feelings with nowhere to put them. This week (May 31–June 7) brings Mercury trine the North Node and square Neptune on June 3rd, a Mercury-Pluto adjustment on the 4th, and a long void-of-course stretch heading into the weekend that's perfect for cleaning everything out. Tracy and Lillian get into the difference between being disconnected and being selective, why "is this any of your business?" might be the most useful question you ask all week, and the kind of energetic hygiene that keeps you from carrying around everyone else's emotional sludge. There's a rescue-helicopter metaphor, a naked emperor, Inanna's descent, and a genuine (not really) debate about whether the moon landing happened. You know, normal astrology conversation between friends. New here? Tracy Quinlan and Lillian Bennett are professional astrologers and friends who come at you each week with the transits, a bigger idea, or a guest.
