Solar Eclipse *NEW MOON* in Cancer ( July 12th / 13th 2018) reminds us that it’s time to come home to our whole Self.

Feelings that have been dormant in the underworld of our psyches, are returning to us like waves rising toward the shore.

The past is knocking on our door, not because it has come back to haunt us, but because it has come back to heal us.

There is a part of our lives that we have disconnected from because it has left a deep wound.

These are the imprints that we would rather forget as we continue to move rapidly into our future. But sometimes, the cycles of Life turn to bring these pieces from our past back into our present for reconciliation and healing.

The reclaiming of our past is our soul’s retrieval of power. It’s the reconnaissance of all our orphaned parts back into ourselves, back into who we are now.

And who we are now is precisely because of the past we have lived, not in spite of it.

As individuals and as a culture, we need to make amends with where we’ve been. Our histories are all marked with stories of abuse of power and we all fall somewhere within the spectrum.

This Cancer New Moon reminds us that with a compassionate heart, we can face and embrace all that has been and all that we are, and free ourselves from that which has had its hold on us. Thus opening the way for us to truly move forward.

Here are the ASTRAL INSIGHTS from our beloved featured astrologers. First

“ECLIPSE SEASON officially begins this week although in truth, many have already been feeling and working with the potent energies.

“The Solar Eclipse/ New Moon…is especially transformational, due to the close opposition between the Sun/Moon in Cancer and Pluto in Capricorn…

“Watch for signs of new themes emerging, especially in the realms ruled by Cancer: children and motherhood, women’s issues, home and domestic concerns, emotional and psychic sensitivity, protectionism, and vulnerability.

“We are likely to feel deeply sensitive and moody around the time of the eclipse. Emotions may swell up from deep inner levels , breaking through the surface of an otherwise calm sea.

“We can feel a profound nostalgia or longing, especially if our lives are not currently providing the kind of nurturing and support we need to thrive.

“If this happens, it is an opportunity for us to check in and ask why are we not making choices that allow greater satisfaction . We can look to Pluto in Capricorn for some clues as to the answer to that question.

“ Are we giving away our power to our career or other responsibilities, forgetting to take time for self-nurturing? Are we trying to live up to the demands of authority figures in our lives, in ways that undermine our self-care?

“Or are we giving away our power in some other way, and feeling emotionally depleted as a result?

“THE OMEGA/CHANDRA symbolic system for the 360 degrees of the zodiac was channeled by John Sandbach…

“The Chandra symbol for the..Solar Eclipse is ‘High up on a mountain, an eagle’s nest.’

“And the Omega symbol reads ‘A man milking a poisonous snake of its venom so that he can make an antidote.’

“Interestingly, Mr. Sandback explains that both of these symbols actually represent spiritually healthy ways to protect ourselves when we feel threatened.

“The eagle protects itself not by withdrawing, but by choosing to ‘view life from a higher place, seeing the whole picture more clearly , and staying above the chaos, confusion, and negativity.’

“And the man milking venom from the snake protects by ‘turning negative into positive and finding benefit in places usually thought of as offering none whatsoever.’

“Perhaps this eclipse is designed to help us become aware of one very specific way many of us give away our power — by getting overwhelmed by what we perceive as bad news and allowing it to eat away at our energy and faith.”
