Last month was a terrible time for us astrologically in pretty much every way possible, including in our love lives. But we've made it through, and astrologers say we've got brighter and sexier skies ahead of us in June.

According to Deborah Graham, star of TLC's The Psychic Matchmaker and author of Get Your Head Out of Your App, this month is ripe for romance. Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn are in line, which makes you feel like everything's going your way. And with Mercury out of retrograde, communication is a breeze. Elle UK resident astrologer and Surviving Saturn's Return author Stefanie Weiss told Complex that you'll also probably feel flirtatious this month, since we're under the strong influence of Gemini. 

In fact, Graham says all of 2016 is great for your love life, because Venus—the planet of love—doesn't go retrograde at all. There's no wrong time to meet someone new, send that brave Tinder message, boldly ask someone on a date, or plan a romantic getaway. But there are a few particularly important dates to pay attention to this month.

On June 13, Neptune goes retrograde, sharpening our psychic abilities. And June 20, the summer solstice, is supposed to leave us all feeling more connected to one another—physically and emotionally. "This day is, to put it mildly, intense," said Weiss, especially since it coincides with a rare second full moon in Sagittarius within a month. "Long-standing issues can come to the surface within partnerships, and sparks can fly. But for single people, it’s likelier to just make you mega-horny, and since everyone is wearing far less clothing, hookups are likely to happen." 

Since these favorable planetary motions are happening while you're probably looking for a summer fling, here's how to boost your chances of meeting someone, according to astrologers. (And not just anyone—the right person for you on a ~spiritual level~)
