why you should look at the sky on the 17th of June

Well, it means your awakening of course.

But let’s dive deeper into the so-called Planet Parade, as the links between planetary alignment and their symbolic meanings are still a relatively new area of research for most astrologers & fans alike.

What Is A Planetary Alignment?

Also known as the Parade of the Planets, a planetary alignment is when a certain number of planets appear across the sky in an orderly fashion. There are many different combinations for such an event but this one involves: Mercury, Uranus, Jupiter, Neptune, and Saturn.

Happening at 93 degrees, they will be visible from Earth around dusk time for two consecutive days. You might need a telescope for the Uranus sighting though.

Now, the planets are not only aligning as a visual spectacle, but this rare alignment also carries a spiritual meaning and energetic effect on us all.

What Is The Spiritual Meaning Of Planets Aligning?

As above, so below. As the macrocosm, so the microcosm. Aligning on the grand scale will further pull us into alignment on the small scale, aligning withOut, aligning withIn.

So, when five of these major celestial bodies align, the energies are intensified and they work in greater synergy with one another. This is calling forth a greater harmony to manifest from each one of us, and yet it can be quite intense, as the layers of the Not-Self are shed.

In order to understand which areas we are to further focus on or so to say, further integrate in our personal lives (at a Soul level), we must first look at which planets are harmonizing on the grand scale and see each one’s significance and how they work in synergy with one another.

How To Best Prepare For The 17th Of June Alignment?

In short? It will be a phenomenal day for transformation and solidifying intentions. See it as a second New Year’s Resolution. A day where the old is strongly desiring to be burnt to pieces so that it may be rebirthed again in a new form.

Of course, this is a longer-term theme that gradually builds up and gradually dissipates, as both Saturn-Neptune and Uranus-Jupiter are in a long co-presence. But specifically, on this day, it is recommended to spend extra time within yourself and contemplate your dreams and aspirations.

Setting goals for the rest of the year. What is it that you truly desire? If this was your last incarnation ever as a human, what would you like to build?

“A man who plants trees, knowing that he will never sit in their shade, has at least started understanding the meaning of life.” – Rabindranath Tagore, Nobel Prize Winner

Make your witchy rituals, meditate, walk barefoot in the forest, take a stroll at the beach. The same way you would at a New Year’s Eve… only this time, luckily, you don’t have the distractions from the home gatherings or parties going on. Most humans will go through this day unnoticed. But not you. Why would you waste this energy?

Having all that celestial energy in the air backing you up… It’s kinda like a clean second go at your 2023 goals.

And once defined, remain stubbornly devoted. To yourself, to your dreams, to the things you believe in, to Love.

Become your own anchor.

Does It Matter Which Planets Are The Ones Aligning?

A planet is a large celestial body with its own specific vibration. All planets and stars are interconnected, but based on which planet we’re looking at, the constellation it’s sitting on, its proximity to Earth (the closer, the stronger the gravitational pull) and its temporary relation to other celestial bodies, the effects vary.

17th of June Placements For The Five Planets: 

Mercury Will Be In Gemini:

As one of the faster moving planets, its theme will have a more short-term effect on us humans than the other four outer, larger moving planets.

On the 17th of June, Mercury will be sitting in the house of Gemini, one of its favorite constellations. Having the planet of communication, technology, travel and exchange of information in the deeply witty, communicative and dialectic sign of Gemini, can only mean one thing: True expression of OneSelf.

During this brief Mercury transit, which is intensified on the 17th thanks to the alignment, we will be witnessing a clarity of thought and expression when it comes to moving forward. Plans, ideas, and communication will be clear and straight to the point.

Embrace independence at this time. As you come to know what you want and who you truly are, you’ll notice the guilt, shame and confusion dissolve with each step you take towards expressing your truth clearly and effectively. Anchoring your true path forward.

Soul work brought forth, mission, value creation in relation to one’s gifts, expansion of that through the online world… all are topics which are becoming present during this transit.

Saturn Will Be In Pisces:

A slow moving planet with a 2 year transit, on March 7th 2023 we saw Saturn moving into the constellation of Pisces, bound to…
