Happy New Moon in Cancer!
New Moons are potent times of transformation, fresh starts, and beginnings. They are portals of creation and manifestation. It is time to welcome in what is in alignment, and to put emphasis on building your dream life.
This New Moon occurs in Cancer, which is the fourth sign of the zodiac. This water sign is ruled by the Moon, which means that this specific New Moon is especially powerful. Emotional and intuitive, Cancer is a sign all about love and optimism, feeling into every crack and crevice in the world. This New Moon calls us to truly find power in sitting with our emotions. How can we welcome in even more connection with our thoughts and feelings, which in turn helps strengthen our intuition? Trust yourself.
Anytime we step through portals of transformation, we welcome in growth and expansion. This might feel exciting and beautiful, and it can also feel uncomfortable and challenging at the same time. It is easy to stay exactly as we are - easy to stay comfortable in our past selves, easy to continue the same habits and patterns. It is difficult (and beautiful) to continue to adjust and expand ourselves. Find the inner strength inside you to continue pushing for that next version of yourself.
Channel the emotional energy of the Moon to truly sit with yourself and what you wish to manifest. What do you dream of in your dream life? Who do you wish to be? What does your dream life self do? Sit with the emotions and with the actions you need to do to meet that future version of yourself. Truly be present with this and the changes you need to make to step through these portals. What a powerful shift you are making!
The Moon helps us understand our inner selves. She is divine feminine energy. She is shadow and light, marking cycles of time and seasonal shifts. She is all knowing and always there, whether it be obvious or not. The Moon is our connection to home. And just like Cancer, whose symbol is the Crab, the Moon loves to connect us to our home. Use your cozy shell to nurture your emotions and intuition.
Connect with your feminine side. Consider what gets brought up when you think of your feminine side. How do you feel about this side of yourself? We are all made up of both masculine and feminine energy, and it is important to meet and get to know all sides of ourself. Use this time to truly dive deep into your feminine and intuition.
It’s officially summer, the season of our inner child. Get in touch with your raw emotions, just like one of a child. Run around and play with your friends. Soak up the sunshine and become exhausted by it. Eat popsicles by the river and smell of sunscreen every time you come home. Manifest your dream life, and remember to balance the work with the play. We do our healing and self work so that we can authentically live our lives, and it is important to remember to fully live while we heal.
ALIGNED ACTION
Think of one of your favorite activities you did when you were a child. This might be playing at the park, running around the streets, going for a bike ride, coloring, playing games - whatever it is, make space for this. Nurture your inner child. Prioritize joy and what they would want. Is this an ice cream cone? A popsicle? Spend some time with your inner child during the first few weeks of summer. Take care of them and allow them to play and feel the childlike wonder. Invite your friends to join you. Go and sit on the swings and stare up at the sky. Feel free. You are free.
