This celestial season holds the medicine of the matriarch, the keeper of the heart + home, our embodiment of lunar wisdom, unconditional love and the unparalleled ability of water.
As the sun shines through the constellation of Cancer, we are being asked to emotionally reflect, on origin, on home, on how we nurture our inter-being + relationship.
Our body holds the waters of our blood, and when we connect with the river of life we contemplate the journey, our ancestral heritage, and the influences that have shaped us. By understanding the origin, we gain a deeper understanding of ourselves and the unseen forces that have brought us to where we stand today. There is an opportunity to ask if what you are currently holding, is yours to carry…
Water is the keeper of memory, and when there is turbulence on the surface of our lives, we can choose to follow the pull to go inward. Ride the waves of breath to feel into what is arising, stay open, and observe what may be unfamiliar, uncharted territory… in the depths of listening, we can ask the deeper questions of our soul, not of our dense experience.
Sensitise, reflect, be gentle and practice boundaries to discover the right balance between individual needs and the collective journey.
Our imprints of ‘Home’ extend far beyond 4 walls and a roof, but encompasses a profound sense of belonging, comfort, and safety. The stars aligning now to ask us to unearth the concept of home and it’s essence within ones own being. Learning to create safety, comfort and self trust as the tides churn will build resilience and regulation within oneself. From this state, bring forth an embodied experience of home to create coherence in family/relationship. Inquire as to how you create a space that nourishes your soul and fosters growth.
This cardinal water sign we are swimming with (cancer), embodies the essence of connectivity. It flows effortlessly, seeking paths of least resistance, merging with other bodies of water to create vast networks of interconnectedness. We have the opportunity to delve deeper into our emotional landscape, to navigate the intricacies of human connection, and to honour the ever-shifting dynamics that shape our bonds. Like the interplay of high and low tides, relationships thrive when there is a harmonious give-and-take, a mutual exchange of support, understanding, and vulnerability. By embracing the wisdom of water, in all its facets and forms, we can cultivate deeper empathy, compassion, and acceptance in our relationships, to navigate the waves of life with grace + authenticity.
