Edition 17 | June 22, 2026 - June 28, 2026 | Wine for the Week Ahead

Alright, it's a pretty mellow week, but we do have a couple of things to discuss. Plus, you can use the relatively more chill astrology to prepare for Jupiter moving into Leo next week.

 

First and foremost, we are officially and technically in Cancer Season as of last Sunday. Cancer is known as the nurturer. The energy here is heartfelt, intuitive, and famously moody. Cancer is a sign known for vulnerability, tenacity, and wisdom in sensitivity. It's about the duality of the hard shell protecting a soft underbelly. If you want to know how Cancer season impacts you personally, check out our Cancer Season Blog post for your specific wine pairing based on where Cancer is in your chart. 

 

Also, at the end of this week, we have Mars moving into Gemini. Mars in Gemini is basically the ultimate social summer vibes. Go out to the pool parties, make the connections, make the pitch because buzzy, passionate, excitable Mars is moving into the frenetic, quick-witted, sociable Gemini. Look for your next summer besties, or chat up your crush for some fun summer romance, but be aware that first impressions aren't always what they seem with this combo, so don't jump to label something too fast. Gemini is also known as a trickster, don't forget. Things are fun, things are funny, hijinks ensue for sure. 

 

So we recommend pairing this energy with some Carbonic wines. Bright, fun, fresh, and juicy reds that go down easy and maybe lead to some questionable decisions.
