This new moon in Cancer is a beautiful portal for actively writing or re-writing a new story. When the sun and moon meet in this cardinal, water sign on Monday July 17th, we will be presented with the cosmic opportunity to ask ourselves how we nourish, nurture, and take care of our spirits during times of change. When we think of working with the soul or spirit, we are often intimidated by the inability to physically touch or measure it. This quiet, dark phase of the moon in Cancer gives us the space to find ways to tend to that space in a practical way. When I think of practical self care in the most basic sense, I think of hydration. I take a drink water, to replenish my body and quench my thirst. It is the act of fulfilling both a need and desire, quite practically.
This new moon is the beginning of a new 6-month cycle in an area of life where we might experience a lot of change, either growth or loss. Wherever Cancer lands in your birth chart, will indicate how you can best nourish and support yourself (soulful hydration) during these times of change.
Read for your rising sign first, then your sun sign. Take what resonates, leave the rest. Be gentle with yourself and give yourself time to soak in what you need and expel what no longer gives you what you need.
