Horoscope For Today: Friday, June 20, 2025

Cancer season is upon us! But, contrary to popular belief, we don’t simply wake up on the first day of a new season in the thick of it. The sun ingresses from 29° Gemini to 0° Cancer later in the day today, and before that, a series of other astrological events must occur first.

The moon transits through fiery Aries all day, while the sun sits at the uncomfortable anaretic degree of Gemini, as the world holds its collective breath.

For the majority of the day, you’ll feel empowered to speak your mind and take action, though your impulsivity might get the better of you, so try to choose your words wisely. They hold a particular amount of weight right now, as the collective is feeling highly individualistic. Everyone is more likely to be on the defensive.

At 4:03 PM EST, the moon joins Chiron in an exact conjunction at 26°, marking a period of intense healing. It might feel painful in the moment, but you’ll be grateful for the wounds you carry when you realize how you can use them to help others.

At 9:48 PM, the moon makes a pleasant sextile to the sun at 29° Gemini, marking a powerful turning point in which our aggressive certainty and strength of will reach their climax.

This is likely to be a particularly chaotic time on social media, as everyone rushes to express their feelings on controversial subject matter without regard to who they offend in the process.

Sure, you may argue that this has been happening a lot this year already, but with Neptune and Saturn now closely aligned in the sign of the ram, the hotheaded and bold risk-taking has now been turned up to eleven. The collective is energized to speak their minds and rush into battle, guns blazing.

This evening presents a powerful opportunity to go to metaphorical war for your loved ones and stand up for your convictions. There is power in the spoken and written word right now, as Gemini rules all things communication.

At 9:53 PM, the mood shifts considerably—and some of us will face the consequences of our brash, inconsiderate temper tantrums. We become more concerned with stability and structure as the moon settles into steady and reliable Taurus.

By 10:43 PM, the sun, too, will be in decidedly different territory, finally making its return home to Cancer. After dark, our focus turns inward and our desire for the comforts of home, family, and tradition are enhanced significantly, in a radical departure from the fierce, blazing heat that swept through the collective in the light of day.

As the moon and sun form a cozy sextile at 0°, we will go off to bed on the East Coast more appreciative of the simple things: our homes, families, communities, and financial security.
