The Sun, the Moon & Venus are Intervening with a Call for Self-Care

As we have just started to embrace the tender Cancerian energies of the Sun being in Cancer, we find ourselves standing on the threshold of a new lunar cycle, marked by the Cancer New Moon on July 5th. In astrology, Cancer is renowned for its intuitive nature, its deep connection to emotions, and its nurturing essence. This celestial event not only beckons us to delve into the depths of our emotions but also serves as a powerful reminder to prioritize self-care and cultivate a profound relationship with ourselves.

Cancer, ruled by the Moon, symbolizes the maternal instinct, urging us to nurture and care for ourselves as we would a beloved child. Under the gentle guidance of Cancer's intuitive energy, we are encouraged to listen to the voice of our inner selves, to honor our emotions, and to embrace our vulnerabilities. This New Moon acts as a cosmic invitation to delve into the realms of self-discovery, to unravel the layers of our being, and to forge a deeper connection with our intuitive wisdom.


Venus is Here Too, Y’all

Adding an extra layer of potency to this lunar phase is the presence of Venus in Cancer, blessing us with her loving and nurturing energy until July 11th. Venus, the planet of love and relationships, emphasizes the importance of self-love and self-worth during this time. As she dances through the watery depths of Cancer, she encourages us to shower ourselves with compassion, kindness, and affection. Her presence amplifies the nurturing essence of this New Moon, making it an opportune moment to embark on a journey of self-discovery and self-love.

  2. Pay attention to your inner voice and intuitive nudges. What messages is your intuition trying to convey to you? How can you strengthen your connection to your intuition and trust its guidance? Meditating on the color orange (the Sacral Chakra) may support you on this journey

  3. Reconnect with the innocent, playful, and curious aspects of yourself. What activities or experiences bring you joy and spark your creativity? How can you incorporate more playfulness into your life?

  4. Reflect on your relationships with others. Who are the people who uplift and support you on your journey? How can you nurture and deepen these connections? How can you set healthy boundaries and release relationships that no longer serve your highest good?

  5. Identify self-care practices that nourish your mind, body, and soul. Whether it's meditation, journaling, spending time in nature, or indulging in your favorite hobbies, prioritize activities that replenish your energy and bring you a sense of peace and balance.
