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 July 14th, 2007, 05:04 am PDT by Marcelina Happy New Moon Everyone! Take a deep breath, folks, we’re finally through with the Mercury retrograde in the sign of Cancer. Miscommunications and arguments were colored with emotional stubbornness. With this powerful New Moon in Cancer, you are now ready to tackle those domestic issues that seemed “foggy”, and to find any peaceful resolution. The New Moon in Cancer encourages us to initiate a new way of relating with our family members, loved ones and friends. Perhaps it is time to listen to our “guts”… and truly get in touch with our feelings, without allowing stubborn pride get in the way of the inner peace. One way of resolving challenging emotional issues that has worked for me is working with plants. You might also try cooking a dish that the whole family would enjoy. It is time for a family and friends gathering, so have fun! With Venus moving into Virgo on the same day as the New Moon, we may find ourselves to be shy, or somewhat analytical, about our love life. So, here’s a reminder for you… “When you gaze upon a rose, enjoy her beauty, don’t count her petals” Have a blessed New Moon in Cancer! Suggestion: | | Candles: | Unscented, Pink | Oil: | Rose | Incense: | Lavender | Prayer*: | In the grace of the Mother Goddess, I___________, now accept that there’s a time and purpose, a time to love and a time for anger, a time to receive and a time to give; a time to break down and a time to build; a time to keep and a time to release. May I have the strength and fortitude to endure in all that I experience. So shall it be! * from "A Collection of Prayers" by Marcelina |
