My teacher used to tell us that the Sun lights up your chart. I’m talking about the Sun by transit, how the Sun transit can predict activity. The Sun enters Cancer tomorrow so that part of your chart will thus be lit up and the concerns of that House come to your personal foreground (11th for me).
But it’s not just the House (and the areas of life associated with that House). Astrologers also like to talk about the sign symbology, that Cancerian or Moon themes may become prominent for you over the next month: mom, memory, mood, food, feelings, family, intuition, safety (among others).
I’m a Cancer Sun, Mercury, and Mars. With a Moon Pluto conjunction. My Solar Return is only a few weeks away and it’s been one hell of a year so far but for us Cancer babies? The NEW YEAR IS HERE. And last night I spent time with some friends, two moon children among them! All hail the crab! Pinchy on the outside, tender and tasty on the in 🙂
Do you want to move? Cancer and the Moon rule home and homesickness and homebodies and homeward bound. Do you want to make your home more homey? This is your HOMEwork 🙂 Sweeten your nest. What makes you feel safe? Whether or not you have a mom or family even. You gotta be your own mom now. You’re a grown up. You can do it. All y’all. But for us Moon maidens and gentlemen, sideways is best, like the crab. You don’t have to face it all head on.
Where do you live? Where do you belong? What (who) do you cling to and why? These are Moon questions. What (who) makes you feel safe, cozy, and comforted? Hmmm…..
Happy (almost) Birthday to me. And you 🙂
xoxo

Almost Happy Birthday Aliza! I love Cancers. I feel calm and safe in their presence. I feel calm and safe when home with my dad who is getting on in years, a Pisces with Cancer rising. As you know I have Moon/Pluto too and this Sun transit will light up my Cancer 7th/8th as well as my 10th where my Moon/Pluto sits. Happy Cancer season to you all!
Aw thank you, Dawn! YES I do remember you are Moon Pluto too 🙂 Lucky us 😉
Happy early bday thanks for the good vibes
Thanks Ashley 🙂
It’s almost my Solar Return too! (my 40th) I still like to celebrate my birthday (Venus Leo) even though it’s not very grown up apparently … I expect to be able to find people who want to do fun things with me around that time.
Just a few birthday thoughts on this, my first comment on your blog. I’ve been reading your blog for about two years now, but just recently found out we share a Cancer Sun! I have both Saturn and the moon in there with my sun, and Mercury not far away, in late Gemini.
Haha, feels like a funny way to introduce myself. I’ll stop now.
Happy Birthday!! 🙂
Suzanne, DEFINITELY celebrate the birthday!
