As far as the Universe is concerned, the Summer season begins in June. During this time, the Arctic tilts towards the Sun as much as possible, giving way to what is considered the longest day of the year. In addition, the summer solstice is also a turning point in astrology that marks the beginning of Cancer season.
But don’t worry if you aren’t a Cancer. This mentally charged moment affects all constellations in different ways. Look ahead to what you need to know about the 2022 summer solstice and what it brings to each constellation.
When Is the Summer Solstice in 2022?
Since the sun’s movement changes yearly, the summer solstice date is also different. In 2022, the summer solstice will occur on June 21st at 5:14 am EST. It is the moment when the Arctic is tilted toward the Sun as much as possible, moving from Gemini, a sign of variable air, to Cancer, a symbol of Cardinal’s water.
What Is the Spiritual Meaning of the Summer Solstice?
The beginning of each season presents us with a new chapter to explore, and summer certainly makes no difference. The summer solstice is primarily a moment of introspection, given that the term “solstice” comes from the Latin words sol (Sun) and sistere (stationary). This day is an opportunity for us to pause and reflect on where we want to go, half a year behind and half a year ahead.
Astrologically speaking, the summer solstice shows the change between the bustling season of Gemini and the time of the Sun of Cancer, which amplifies our feelings and desire to be with our loved ones.
What the Summer Solstice Means For the Zodiac Signs
On the Summer solstice, not only does the Sun move to Cancer, but Venus, a planet of relations and beauty, forming a trinity with Pluto that harmonises with the powerful transformation power of Capricorn. Whenever Venus synchronises with Pluto, our bonds and desires are strengthened. But since both of these planets are in the signs of the Earth, slow and steady advancement will motivate you to pursue whatever you crave. This is what the summer solstice brings all the zodiacs…
