Sun Enters Cancer: Solstice June 21.

 

June 21, 2026

1:24am  PDT 

Just before the First Quarter lunar phase, the Sun enters Cancer, marking the Summer Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere and the beginning of winter below the equator.

The Sun's square to Neptune suggests a season with confusion, faith, creativity and sensitivity woven together that may hit us when we least expect it. Pack tissues no matter where you go.

The Sun's trine to the North Node in Pisces may be the net that catches us when we think we're on the verge of falling. Intuition can run high.

However, the Moon in Virgo reminds us that inspiration still needs practical follow-through. Cross the t's and dot the i's all season.
