Welcome to Week Twenty-four, which will see a gorgeous full moon in Sagittarius and inch us closer to a powerful Summer Solstice.
For the last couple of days, ICE has been raiding communities in Los Angeles County. Last night, President Donald J. Trump announced plans to deploy the National Guard to quell growing protests, despite Governor Newsom’s insistence such a move was “purposefully inflammatory and [would] only escalate tensions.”
It’s nothing new—Americans have a long history of, and a constitutional right to protest injustice and authoritarianism. And yet, it’s another escalation in an already chaotic time to be alive, and an important moment of what we will and will not stand for in our cities, towns, and neighborhoods.
On June 9, expansive Jupiter moves into the nurturing sign of Cancer. “Cancer energy has claws. And community caretaking should, too,” wrote
in a recent write-up of this transit. “[A] keyword of this upcoming transit is protection. What is sacred to you? What is inviolable? If you could use your resources to throw a shield around any one group of people, who would it be?”It’s time for us to answer those questions, and consider the full scope of supportive actions we can take: lighting candles, distributing news, information, and supplies, collecting money for bail funds, joining a protest, donating time, effort, skills, and knowledge to those in need… It all matters.
This is especially potent in a 9 collective year, where every single daily, weekly, and monthly number is amplified. Due to the fact that 9 can essentially be canceled out in any reduction calculation it appears in (truly, try some out, i.e. 1+9 = 10, 1+0 = 1), every core number this year becomes more of itself. Magnified, and polarized. Embodying both sides of the coin at the same time.
Meaning for this week…

Week #24
Twenty-four is a number of aftermath and artistry. Like the architecture of a museum, cathedral, or library, it builds and holds beautiful, harmonious spaces for us to archive, survive, and thrive.
There are twenty-four hours in a day. Pure gold is twenty-four carats. There were twenty-four episodes in a season of 24, the hit show starring Kiefer Sutherland. But boil it down and twenty-four is simply, six. Meaning we’re in a six-ruled week in an overall six-ruled month. This delightful doubling has much to offer.
This week, it’s time to move past what you inherited or have been taught. It might even be time to move past what you have previously experienced. The world you grew up in no longer exists, and the rules of the game have changed. Grieve as you go, but get to stepping. As Ram Dass said, “You can do it like it’s a great weight on you, or you can do it like it’s part of the dance.”

June 9-15 for Your Yearly Cycle
To find your yearly cycle number, add the digits of your month and day of birth to 2025, and reduce until you reach a single digit. For example, the calculation for my birthday of July 7 looks like: 7+7+2+0+2+5 = 23, 2+3 = 5.
Please note that I reduce doubled digit numbers like 11 and 22 to their root numbers when working with yearly cycles, so please calculate and read accordingly.
Read for your Yearly Cycle, but also check out your prominent chart placements, like Life Path and Public Persona, as well for the collective 9-year.
