This week’s astrology is one of the biggest turning points of the year.

Mercury retrograde begins in Cancer, Mars enters Gemini, and Jupiter moves into Leo for the first time in more than a decade. Together, these major shifts invite us to reflect on the past, communicate differently, and prepare for an exciting new chapter.

In this episode, Yasmin explains why Mercury retrograde doesn't have to be feared. Instead, it offers a chance to revisit emotional patterns, reconnect with your intuition, heal family dynamics, and move forward with greater clarity.

She also explores Jupiter's move into Leo—a once-in-twelve-years transit bringing confidence, creativity, visibility, and heart-led growth. Looking back to 2014–2015 may reveal what's ready to expand in your life once again.

Finally, Yasmin explains why the rare planetary alignments building throughout July 2026 could become one of the most significant astrological periods of the century. Inspired by André Barbault's famous prediction of "the most benefic configuration of the century," she shares why she calls this period The Great Realignment.

Whether you're navigating Mercury retrograde, preparing for Jupiter in Leo, or wondering what's coming next, this episode will help you understand these powerful energies and how to work with them.

• Mercury retrograde in Cancer (June 29–July 23)

This week's astrology tells a remarkably coherent story.

As the Sun moves into Cancer at the June Solstice, we're invited to reconnect with what truly nourishes us. Then Venus forms a harmonious trine to Saturn, asking us to commit to what matters most. At the same time, the Sun squares Neptune, challenging us to see things as they really are rather than how we'd like them to be.

Together, these energies ask one powerful question:

Where in your life have you been hoping instead of deciding?

In this episode, Yasmin explores why Cancer season is all about emotional security and belonging, why Venus trine Saturn may be one of the most underrated aspects in astrology, and how Neptune's influence can help us release old stories and see life more clearly.

She also shares the beautiful Aramaic concept of WASHBOQLIN, a word often translated as "forgive" but which may be more accurately understood as "untie," "release," or "loosen the knot."

Plus, Yasmin gives an early heads-up about the extraordinary astrology building for July 2026, which some astrologers consider one of the most important celestial configurations of the century.

In this episode you'll discover:

• What the Sun moving into Cancer means for the collective mood
• Why the Solstice marks a powerful turning point in the year
• How Cancer season helps us reconnect with home, family and emotional wellbeing
• Why Venus trine Saturn is the standout aspect of the week
• How to make lasting progress in love, money and creative projects
• What the Sun square Neptune is revealing about illusion, confusion and wishful thinking
• How to tell whether you're seeing a situation clearly
• The deeper meaning of the Aramaic word WASHBOQLIN
• Why forgiveness is really about freeing yourself
• A preview of the extraordinary astrology arriving in July
• Details of Yasmin's upcoming workshop on the Great Shift of 2026
