The New Moon in Cancer asks us to fully explore all the family issues that are coming to the forefront right now. When our perceived inner security is threatened in some way, involution follows, we withdraw and try to figure it all out prior to engaging again. This can be a continuing theme during eclipse season in Cancer/Capricorn.
Mars is in Leo (until August 17th) and Venus enters Cancer at virtually the same time and we want things our way more than usual and are sensitized to any admonishments or slights from others. Until Venus leaves Cancer July 27th, expect to process and refine core values, because Mercury Rx will confound and confuse the issue with its transit back through Cancer, as well.
Chiron @ 5* Aries goes retrograde and joins Saturn, Pluto, Neptune, Mercury in re-verse motion from our Earth-centered viewpoint. Mars becomes a firecracker focal point with aspects to Chiron Rx and Uranus; makes a waning sesqui-quadrate to Jupiter and a waxing one to Neptune. Jupiter and Neptune have just had their second of three last quarter squares building new foundations for truth.
This set-up of retrograde planets and Jupiter/Neptune hits to Mars causes tension with how we interpret truth. Beliefs we hold dear may need review and processing time; requiring a shift.
Tempers can fly. Interactions become strained and should be looked at with patience and empathy.
The recently eclipsed Cancer Sun marches toward Leo and we reach the halfway point of Pluto and Saturn's retrograde cycles with the Sun's conjunctions to both of those heavyweight planets next week.
Security buttons become fully pushed, and the thinning veil of prior wounds appear fresh upon our reality. Endure, process and persevere on a bit more challenging July journey to the core of the Soul. |
