New Moon in Cancer

Astro vibrational Tapestry Report Wednesday July 15, 2015 - by Starlene Breiter & Nikki Rich 

Just for starters - I am joining Starlene in writing some of the Astro Tapestries. So enjoy reading the thoughts of us both on the transiting planets. Being that every astrologer has a different spin on the vibrations in the cosmos it will be nice to hear other opinions.  Thanks for having me, Starlene!

Mother moon hangs in her home zodiac sign of Cancer all day today. You can expect to feel nurturing and connected to your family today. It would be nice to hold on to Moonstone during the day today. The moon shifts around and connects with other planets today, including a new moon. Often one wants to enjoy time with loved ones during this time of the moon moving through the sign of Cancer. Enjoy feeling your emotions, connecting with the feminine and spending time in wherever you call “home”. 

This day starts off in the early morning time with the moon and Mercury conjunct in the sky at 1:11AM EST. This vibration in the tapestry of energy will give some movement towards ideas that we may have in our hearts and spirit. You may want to work with some Jasper in this time. Jasper will bring out new ideas, and ground you just enough to take action on them but not so much you feel heavy. You may notice you get excited about sharing some of those ideas or communicating them with others at this time. Just remember to write them down and take some action on them. 

The next energy brings us a vibration between the moon conjunct Mars, this peaks at 3:50AM EST. This energy gives us some desire to finish the task(s) at hand and lends towards a vibrant, active time. Red Coral or even Carnelian Agate would both be excellent gemstones to work with in helping you channel this energy nicely. If you can, go do something physical like walk, or swim, or work out this morning - your body will love you for it. 

The moon then is opposite Pluto at 4:10AM EST. This energy pattern has us reaching in the depths and seeing what is there. This energy has us feeling like reaching deep down in our souls and digging for what is there. This action has us purging and releasing any pent up energy onto the Universe. 

As the morning unfolds the next aspect that begins to peak in energy on us, climaxes this morning. This aspect is when Mars is opposite Pluto and is exact at 10:12AM EST. This energy gives us a bit of a restlessness feeling and strong compulsion to getting things accomplished. If you are not sure what you need to focus on, you might get try to sort that out and get moving. Today is a great day to work with Brecciated Jasper to help you channel your energy and get moving in a stable and calm force.

The next pattern we have is when the moon squares Uranus it peaks at 4:10PM EST. You might notice a little bit more restlessness and if so, channel that energy into something positive. Holding on to some Blue Lace Agate over this time may be useful for you during the connection the moon and Uranus make, couples with some Black Tourmaline to help keep the balance. If this is your resting time and you can’t feel a little anxious or excitable – try doing something that completely inspires you and just go with the flow of this time. 

Mercury makes an opposition to Pluto at 7:40PM EST and as you can see (if you made it reading through the day today) Pluto has been a busy planet! The energy of Mercury and Pluto in an opposition to themselves can cause some emotional outbursts or quarrels. Try to counteract those thoughts from exploding outward by channeling them in a healthy direction. Fluorite may be an excellent stone for helping you do that. 

Finally the New Moon happens at 9:24PM EST today. This is when the moon and sun are conjunct in the sky. The new moon is a great time for you to start to do some intention setting with yourself. Being that the new moon is conjunct in the sign of Cancer, you may be lead to the Cancerean things such as connections to your family, your home and embodying the energies of the Goddess. You may want to hold onto some Moonstone at this time to connect with the energies of the moon deeper.

A good essential oil for today is Frankincense which elevates us and connects us to spiritual energy while also grounding and comforting us. This helps soothe the tense energies of the day and transform them into something higher. 

Namaste & until tomorrow!
