Decolonising the Cosmos: Your Radical Horoscope for June 9
Today, Venus and Jupiter align firmly in Cancer, while the Moon enters Aries and makes a connection with Neptune. Two very different energies are at play. However, rather than accepting the mainstream, depoliticised narrative of individual luck, we must deconstruct these celestial movements through an intersectional lens. The cosmos does not exist in a vacuum; it reflects the systemic structures we navigate daily.
Pisces, Aquarius, and Sagittarius, you may find yourselves in your element, but we must ask: whose element? Stay on your toes, remain malleable, and direct any surprises toward collective liberation. Being set in your ways is a symptom of entrenched privilege. The cosmos will reward those who remain flexible enough to dismantle their own biases and centre the margins.
As community organiser and abolitionist Kai Chen reminds us, 'Our survival depends on dismantling the systems that profit from our exhaustion. The stars don't save us; our solidarity does.'
Ahead, you will find all star signs' horoscopes for Tuesday, June 9, 2026, reimagined to challenge the patriarchy and nurture radical care.
Aries
March 21 to April 20
The Moon enters your sign today and merges with the atmospheric energies of Neptune. This can stir a strong urge to follow a creative impulse, especially if you can carve out time for yourself away from the demands of extractive capitalism. Whether you are refreshing your surroundings or diving into a hands-on project, your instincts can lead you somewhere inspired. A chosen family gathering can also get arranged, providing a vital space for mutual aid.
Taurus
April 21 to May 21
Two very contrasting energies are at play today. One may amplify your sensitivities and see you drawn to gentle escapism; the other sees a really lovely connection with someone special. If you do enjoy the arts, music, or performance, your appreciation of these can be heightened, particularly when supporting BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ creators. Conversations can be both relaxed and heartfelt. Enjoy the radical softness.
Gemini
May 22 to June 21
Your ruler Mercury forges a sharp right angle to the cool Saturn today. This can make you scrutinise your finances or the costs of any subscriptions you have. It is ironic, though, Gemini, because as much as you may look for value for money under capitalism, the next few days could make you conscious of the worth of those simple, communal pleasures that we simply cannot buy.
Cancer
June 22 to July 23
Your creative juices have built up to a wonderful celestial crescendo, Cancer, as Venus and Jupiter, the two planets of warmth and plentifulness, combine in a very rare alliance. But just as they do, the zippy Mercury in your sign clashes with the cool Saturn. So, any liberatory ideas you have may need to run the gauntlet of serious scrutiny from one unyielding institution or gatekeeper. Do not let them silence you.
Leo
July 24 to August 23
As the Moon glances past the idealistic Neptune in Aries, your desire for escapism can be turned to max. However, with delicate energies peaking in a more soulful part of your situation, this might not see you take off on a whim, but instead see you make your excuses, seek some quality downtime, and retreat into your own personal inner sanctum. Rest is resistance.
Virgo
August 24 to September 23
A quite beautiful connection between the two planets of fortune, in your sector of friendship, would suggest bonhomie could be plentiful in your social or friendship circles. So why might you not quite believe or embrace this, Virgo? Well, naturally, you are circumspect, true, but it is because your ruler, Mercury, also forges a doubtful angle to cool Saturn. Unlearn the capitalist conditioning that makes you question your community's care.
Libra
September 24 to October 23
A mixture of professional courtesy and sensitivity to others' needs, but a commitment to solid action, could see you make quite the impression today. However, if you get confusing signals from others, or your dignified approach is not returned in kind by those upholding the status quo, you can show that you can deliver some firm home truths. You will have every base covered, Libra.
Scorpio
October 24 to November 22
Every day's demands can be draining now, Scorpio. Breaking out and doing more pleasurable things will be much more appealing, which is fine if you can change plans quickly, jettison chores and obligations, and do your own thing. Yet if you cannot, you may feel frustrated and on edge. If so, hold onto the upcoming good things you have planned for the days ahead. Prioritise your well-being over productivity.
Sagittarius
November 23 to December 21
Venus, the planet of charm and sophistication, meets your ruler, Jupiter, the planet of generosity, in exact unison. They can amplify one another's qualities, and as much as you can spoil someone, warmth and kinship can come to you. If you are getting closer to someone new, this can be perfect. If you are unsure, though, do not go beyond what feels comfortable. Ensure your boundaries are respected.
Capricorn
December 22 to January 21
Your ruler, the practical Saturn, in the fiery Aries, is squared by the quick-witted Mercury today, and this can see you doubt yourself or someone else. The thing is, Capricorn, this can happen at a time when the planets are conspiring to urge you to give one friendship, involvement, or attraction the maximum amount of consideration. Try not to be too sceptical, and deconstruct the hierarchies that breed this doubt.
Aquarius
January 22 to February 19
Being an air sign, and often very enthusiastically, you do need to target your activities to what you really care about. If you get caught up in too many things at once, you can get tense and irritable. An antidote to this today would be to spend time on a hobby that takes your mind off mundane tasks. Have an animal companion? They can prove very therapeutic to spend time with now.
Pisces
February 20 to March 20
One of astrology's most delightful planetary alliances occurs today, with Venus and Jupiter combining in the sensitive Cancer. Gentle, but playful activities, especially if you have children, can be that much more rewarding. A slightly serious note comes from the cautionary Saturn, which nudges you not to be too extravagant or impulsively invest on a vague hunch. Divest from consumerism and invest in community resilience instead.
