This episode of the podcast features a new segment where astrologer Kelly Surtees joins me to provide a forecast of some of the major astrological trends for the month of June 2015, as well as highlight some of the most auspicious electional charts during the course of the month.
The astrology forecast segment is based on a column that Kelly writes for the website of The Mountain Astrologer magazine where she talks about some of the featured planetary aspects for the month of June.
My bi-monthly column appears in the print version of The Mountain Astrologer, and in it I provide a list of some of the most auspicious charts I can find each month using the basic principles of electional astrology.
We decided to combine some of the highlights of both of our columns here for a 45-minute podcast discussion about the astrology of June.
This is an experiment that we are going to try over the course of the next few months, and if listener feedback is good then it may become a regular feature of the podcast at the beginning of each month. The goal is to expand the listener base of the podcast, while still presenting high-level discussions about astrology that are interesting and useful for intermediate and advanced students and practitioners of the subject.

love the podcast, love the your new format talking about the major alignments of the month. Keep up the wonderful work!
Thanks so much Jessica!!
I loved the podcast! I hope you’ll keep them coming 🙂
We plan to Mona – so glad you enjoyed it!
Interesting rising view look forward to June and the podcasting certainly busy New Moon on the 16. I have a question:_ which planet oppose Saturn on the 15? Is it Mercury or the Ascendent? Both? Thank You!
Saturn is opposing Mercury and the Ascendant by degree, but no longer by sign.
That was great guys, it will help me plan the month, keep them coming!
will do Nicky – thanks for your lovely comment!
Thank You Chris Brennan
Lilith 0 degrees Sagittarius 5th House. Is this a good time to let go structure from the past that no longer serve you?
Thanks for this podcast. I’ve gotten half way thru to the part about Neptune and Mercury, movies, photos and how the info can be deceptive. I saw this a few days ago with the Bruce Jenner press, he is now a woman but really still a man.
This was a fantastic show, thank you both! I would love to see this continue in the future.
Thanks, that is great to hear! We will definitely keep doing it in the future.
Hi Chris,
I’ve been listening to your podcasts for the last year and I think they’re fantastic!
I have also been referencing your election information in Mountain Astrologer for the last few months and am grateful for that guidance.
I think your monthly plan to talk about upcoming transits & “possible elections” is super helpful.
Thank you for all the wisdom you share with us.
Robin
Thanks Robin, I appreciate it, and I’m glad to hear that you’ve been using the electional column!
I’ve enjoyed all your podcasts, and really liked the new plan for the monthly transits episode. Thank you!
Great! Good to hear! Thanks for your feedback, and we will definitely keep doing the monthly transits episode in the future.
I’m looking at the June/July issue of the Mtn Astrologer right now, but can’t find Kelly’s column. Can you tell me where to look?
thanks
Kelly’s column is on the TMA website at this point rather than the print version, and you can read it here:

I loved this podcast! Thank you for alerting us to these wonderful dates and alignments, Keep ’em coming!
Excellent! Will do!
You and Kelly have a great rapport and do a great job of forecasting the astro weather. Keep it up.
Thanks Cassandra! Funny enough, Kelly has Pisces rising and I have Aquarius rising, so I guess we kind of have a blend of the Pi-Quarius thing we joked about and you illustrated in an earlier episode with Patrick. So… it really is the Age of Piquarius.
Good mix of commentary regarding electional(s) and aspects for June. Enlightening to see how it all fits together. Liked the historical anecdotes and the elaboration on the individual aspects, (i.e. rare, common, “Juicy” : ), etc. ). Looking for ward to next month’s podcast.
