Sivan 5783

May 21-June 19, 2023

---

The month of Sivan and the season of travel is upon us! Sivan’s tribal ruler, Zevulon, traversed the shores, inlets, cities and towns of the eastern Mediterranean by ship, acquainting himself with all manner of peoples and trading goods with them. Returning home with increased knowledge and increased wealth, Zevulon understood that diverse connections multiply opportunities.

Gemini/T’omim, the constellation associated with Sivan, facilitates every kind of communicative connectivity. Change is Gemini’s byword; change is a response to the integration of new information. What facts are you digesting which help you to understand that changing your luck (in Hebrew mazal, literally, constellation) involves changing your place?

A great deal of careful evaluation is needed over Shavuot to sift through options. Several factors combine to help you decide where to go — Venus/Noga in homey Cancer/Sartan sextiling unstable Uranus/Oron in stability-loving Taurus/Shor, the First Quarter Moon in Virgo/Betulah, and the Sun square Saturn in Pisces/Dagim. All the while, the answer is right there in front of you: Obviously, you need to go with the flow.

The weekend of June 2 features dramatic surprises. Romantic Venus trines dreamy Neptune/Rahav, followed by the Full Moon in adventurous, freedom-loving Sagittarius/Keshet, and Mercury/Kochav conjunct Uranus. Venus then enters Leo and opposes retrograde Pluto, setting up a theatrical power-play. Retrograde Pluto backtracks into Capricorn/Gidi June 11, where he’ll be compelling loose ends to tie themselves up through mid-January 2024. Saturn/Shabbatai stations retrograde during the New Moon in Gemini.

Wherever you travel to change your mazal during Sivan, change for the better comes with accepting personal responsibility.

Aries / Taleh

Sivan begins with a bang for you, with the Sun sextile planetary ruler Mars/Ma’adim, followed by the entrance of Mars into Leo/Aryeh, opposite Pluto in Aquarius/D’li, and square to Jupiter/Tzedek. While this Fixed T-Square is disrupting everyone around you, your natural courage and ability to ride the proverbial shock waves of change empower you to thrive when others are wavering. Your leadership ability comes in handy now, as those floundering about are looking for courage and gumption, both of which you have aplenty. Any follower can pick a leader, but a wise leader will choose their own followers.
