Connecting With Cancer
Themes Of The Season
The sun has set on spring, and summer is in full swing! Cancer season kicks off with the moon in Aries, bringing us a heated, passion filled season. Cancer calls for a deeper appreciation of our feelings.
Unlike the other 11 signs, we have entered a time where the Sun is responding to the Moon. So get ready for moods to change as frequently as it moves.
A cardinal feminine sign, this cycle provides an opportunity to be creative with how we soak up unconscious signs and nurture our emotional side. How can you embrace the fiery energy to the best of your abilities? Allow it to expand your perspective, charge your latest endeavor, and maintain motivation all season long.
Connected to the Mother archetype, this sign relates to the womb. A place where we are protected and cared for. As the individual water sign, we can use this season to get in touch with our moon placement, or psychological nature. What emotional needs could use a boost now? How big is your window of tolerance and what practices are you using to maintain it? These are all themes Cancer season brings to the surface.
In some cultures, Cancer was the end of the Zodiac. More of a tomb than a womb, the year is almost half over. What ways are you allowing yourself to rest and restore?
Take stock of what we have accomplished, and make note of what is worth bringing with us to the next period.

Major Moves
When it comes to understanding how the Zodiac applies to our life, the first thing you want to see is what the Nodes of Fate are impacting. Node translates to Knot! These fictional points mark where the Sun and Moon cross during an eclipse. Taking 18.6 years to complete their orbit, we are cycling back to the story from 2003-2004, or 1984-1986.
The North Node (Rahu) shows what our soul seeks, or goals may be. Whereas the South Node (Ketu) symbolizes the perspective more inherent to us, things that feel familiar, or keep us in our comfort zone.
Collectively, the north node is transiting Taurus. Bringing with it the priorities of this fixed earth sign. Uranus is in Taurus too, adding a dose of revolution to a somewhat volatile environment. In this ever changing atmosphere, expect the unexpected, and prepare to care for your physical one!
