Happy Solar returns to all Cancerians who are celebrating their birthday !  The Sun is in the sign of The Crab now, turning our focus to the spiritual aspects of our emotions so that we may wonder - how can I best nurture my family and myself ?    All that is Cancer also represents the nature of the 4th house of astrology – our skills within our homelife.  While the Sun moves through this sign, there could be growth in our emotional qualities in order to further our spiritual path, of course this involves feeling the emotional needs of others too. A tendency to take things to heart or too personally could be noticeable to some. Cancer is governed by the Moon - giving us the feminine ability to feel empathy for those around us. We can utilize this cycle by learning how to be consciously aware of the emotional needs of our family. We should be careful not to over-react or be too sensitive to criticism. If you tend to mood swings, are doing the 'poor me' thing, or digging up old emotional pain - use the element of water to wash it away. Some real family healing could come from a picnic by a lake or river, or a walk along the beach. Why not take the time for a long relaxing bath with oils such as rose, neroli or lavender.

    If you feel emotionally abused by someone it may be a good time to do something positive about it - tactfully, remembering the other person has feelings too.  The New Moon today is a perfect time to consciously affirm what changes you would like to achieve within your home or emotional self over the next month.

   Mars the planet of action is in Virgo the sign of health and skills for nearly 8 weeks, motivating us to actually implement some form of exercise or healthier eating habits. Beware of people openly and even aggressively criticizing your skills or the way you relate to your co-workers. I know it's difficult to not react in self-defense when someone's waving their arms around and yelling, but it is more civilized and who needs the anger ?   Use the energy of this transit to get a job done well.

   The New  Moon on the 3rd in Cancer brings harmony between the feminine and masculine forces to assist the beginning of a new lunar cycle. Time to mentally acknowledge your next goal and nurture your emotional balance, your progress over the next two weeks will bring your plan to a peak with the Full Moon in Virgo on the 18th when we will look at the emotional impact that our health and the use of our skills has on our home life.

   The karmic lesson in this life for Cancerians  is to develop and use their strength of being a ‘cardinal water sign governed by the moon' and their ability to emotionally nurture - to gently express kindness and feelings of empathy without creating emotional distress. The evolved Cancerian is the 'spiritual mother' giving emotional support and protection to those in need, and connecting through feelings. The unevolved Cancerian satisfies his/her own emotional needs, dwelling on how 'they' feel, demanding personal attention without a thought for the needs of others or how their childish self satisfying ways harm the people who love them.

      Call on Archangel Gabrielle for emotional strength to deal with upsetting family situations and a peaceful atmosphere within the home. She also brings the courage to trust your feelings and not withdraw through fear.
