Happy New Moon in Cancer. New moons in many cultures signify beginnings. Though we are not out of the woods yet with an abysmal Mercury in Retrograde, we are getting closer to life not being so spun out communication-wise. Mercury will go direct July 1st, which is good news especially for those Geminis and Virgos under its ruling authority. New Moons symbolize a beginning because we are literally in the dark with the moon's ascent and descent with the sun. It is the dark pulse in our bodies, known as sleep, that allows us to dream. Every beginning is heralded by a dream.
This New Moon in Cancer, a watery emotional sign, is calling us to allow whatever is stagnant or pooling to flow again. Mercury retrograde in this sign will be pointing out where we are emotionally obstructed. The tightrope we are walking today is how to be expressive without unleashing the full force of the dam. How can we let feelings flow without drowning in its unpredictable currents?
Beginnings are births. Births do not happen without labor pains. As we transition to burying the dead that has outlived its usefulness and meaning, we experience the pain going down the birth canal. Taking the first breath of life, we start as a blank canvas. What picture are you ready to paint?
