Cancer New Moon:
A Labor of Love
by Simone Butler

Nowadays, with rampant foreclosures, downsizing and insecurity, we need to create "home" wherever we are. On the deepest level, home is a feeling that comes from within, a reflection of how secure we feel with ourselves and our relationship to life itself. The New Moon in Cancer also spotlights the need to find security within. This extra potent New Moon, falling on the heels of the summer solstice, features an opposition to power-broker Pluto. The Cancer New Moon signals a time of nurturing and creative activity, and Pluto rules birth, death, transformation and the fear of annihilation.

Sagittarius Full Moon Meditation:
It is Time to Listen Again
by Julia Bondi

Our noisy minds stuffed with words are often functioning on overload leaving no space for integrating, knowing and responding. Each Full Moon offers a new balance, an ever evolving harmony in a crucial area of our life. We can see the desperate need for quiet, listening and genuine dialogue in nearly every arena of life today. We notice that more and more of us are turning off the television, searching for more authentic voices, seeking simple truths, yearning for meaningful conversation as we turn to leaders who are committing to a willingness to listen, to find common ground and to negotiate rather than demand. We are all sensing that it is time to listen again to our own questions, to our inner guidance and to be receptive to simple truths....
