Lunar Insight
One thing and only one thing (for now) that
astronomers, astrologers, geologists, sailors, poets,
weatherpersons, fishermen, doctors, nurses and psychiatrists can
seem to agree upon, the Moon and Her amazing influences in nature
and on human behavior.
In astrology, as women, we are ruled by the Moon,
which represents our emotions and feelings. With it, is the
receptivity of others’ emotions as well, the reason why intuition is
far more stronger in women than in men. As Wise Women, we have the
power to capture Her magnificence and apply it into our daily life.
To begin with, we have a new moon, a time for starting new projects,
then two weeks after, we have a full moon, a good time to expect
fruition then release those that are no longer beneficial to the
project.
So, here we go…

New Moon in Cancer, 10°
Solar Eclipse

Happy New Moon, Everyone!
Change or be changed, that is the message of this New Moon in
Cancer, solar eclipse. Power struggles will be evident on many
levels; family, intimate matters, and personal needs.
We have three outer planets; Saturn, Uranus and Pluto, playing a big
role during this new moon... a cardinal grand square. Picture in
your mind four huge trucks (sun and moon counted as one) coming into
an intersection, halted, no one wants to give way. “Everybody wants
to be chief, nobody wants to be Indian” as the saying goes.

A square aspect indicates a turning point.
Disciplinarian Saturn (in Libra), square to this New
Moon, requires us to be more responsible in our
relationships and partnerships. Perhaps sharing our
intimate feelings with our partner may do wonders.
Uranus, mythic God of Chaos, rouses us to be
independent, to liberate and reform. And, Pluto, the
Lord of the Underworld, obliges us to deal with our
fears, our secrets and shadows, and the power to heal
old wounds.
The union of the Sun and the Moon (new moon) gives us a
chance to take a fresh start. New Moon in Cancer, Solar
Eclipse, requires of us to turn inward and reflect on
our deepest core before forging ahead. The Moon in
Cancer is a traditional sign, overprotective, and
territorial. It wants to preserve the foundation and
prefers to stay in well-defined boundaries.
On Sabian Symbol, Astrological Mandala by Dane Rudhyar…
10 degrees for the eclipse in Cancer represents “A large
diamond in the first stages of the cutting process.
Keyword: The arduous training for perfection in order to
fully manifest the ideal.”
My thoughts…
The process of perfecting a goal will take hard work,
determination and discipline. We, the diamond cutters,
must be willing to cut away the rough parts of the stone
and be our own expert craftsman.
Have a Marvelous New
Moon!
And, Keep Sharing the Light!
