Your Horoscope for Pride Month Is Right Here
Welcome to Pride month! The best time of the year is here again, when we celebrate and commemorate the fight for queer liberation in the United States. During Pride month, we honor the way that our queer elders and ancestors fought for our rights, beginning with the brick thrown at Stonewall back in June 1969. We also recognize the work that is still left to do not just for queer rights, but for the rights of all oppressed people.
When queer people don their gay apparel, when a drag queen puts on their wigs and their heels, and when you or your queer bestie put on their binder or their glitter, we are showing the world that queer joy exists—and that is revolutionary. Pride month is both fun and poignant, so let’s celebrate and remember all of the people who made sure we could!
In astrology, this Pride month, the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Jupiter are all gathering together in Gemini, encouraging us to have some fun, to flirt with ideas known and unknown, and to connect with as many people as we can. The New Moon in Gemini at the start of the month sets the stage for us to build deeper relationships and to recognize which people might need to be put on hold or cut off altogether. Then, the Full Moon in Capricorn at the end of the month helps us reflect on all of the ways we’ve grown throughout the month and what goals we still wish to accomplish this year. This Pride month, the Sun is a disco ball encouraging us to find our own rhythm, and whether we need to sit a song out or find a new partner, the stars will help us find our way.

The planets and the stars are encouraging you to delve deep into your interpersonal relationships so you can find new ways to make intimacy and sensuality a part of the way you interact with those around you. The New Moon on June 6 reminds you that there’s always a delicate balance in relationships, and pushes you to examine how you make connections both by being vulnerable and by allowing others to be vulnerable to you. Later in the month, there may be some unexpected surprises; maybe there will be extra champagne in the mimosas at drag brunch, or maybe a friend will spill some tea you were definitely not prepared for. By practicing vulnerability when the occasion presents itself, you’ll be ready for whatever sneaks up on you!

The New Moon will help you see things clearly, so if you’re not sure if it’s their sparkling personality or just the way their hips swing in their short shorts, wait until after June 6 to make any moves. Towards the end of the month, as Venus and Mercury move into sensitive Cancer, you’ll find yourself craving deep emotional connections. Invite your besties out to a dinner at your favorite queer safe space and let everyone spill their guts. You all will feel so wonderfully connected that you’ll probably make plans to do it again soon!
Capricorn
One of the most revolutionary things you can do this Pride month is to focus on all of the ways you can take care of yourself, mighty Capricorn. You are known for being disciplined, for having an organizational system for your organizational systems, and for knowing just what everything is and where everything goes. Welcome a little queer magic into your daily routines and see where things can be tightened up, where things can be made more fun or more purposeful, and where your rituals can use a little extra love. The Full Moon on June 21 will be in your sign, shining a light on what boundaries you need to set in order for you to feel your best. Don’t be afraid to say no to your besties if you know that you need some me-time—you’ll shine even more brightly once you return!

Take some time to rest and to take care of your place, whether that means stocking up on your favorite tea or taking an extra-long bath. This Pride, you matter a whole lot, so take care of yourself!
Pisces
Pride can be a chaotic and frenetic time, but this year, you are being called to be the calm at the center of the storm and to bring everyone together in your tranquil waters. Whether you host a potluck dinner where everyone can settle in after a long weekend partying, or you hold space and brew a cup of tea for the friend who isn’t sure which of their crushes actually likes them back, allow your friends to know that you are their queer fairy godmother, ready to take care of them. Once the Full Moon in Capricorn comes around on June 21, any imbalance you’ve felt will return to center, and you’ll be ready to do it all again.
