Cancer Full Moon: A Second Chance for Life

by Simone Butler

On top of all that, Mercury will also be aligning with Pluto during his retrograde cycle (Jan. 14 – Feb. 3). This trickster transit can trigger thoughts of despair and darkness, but it’s also excellent at helping us figure out solutions. Like donkeys and beavers, Pluto is tough-minded and determined. This period can also offer you a second chance on something you’d almost given up on. Do your soul-searching and fact-finding during the retrograde, then build that dam or dig that well after it turns direct.

Cancer Full Moon: A Soft Place to Fall

by April Elliott Kent

My astrology teacher used to say about tough times, “It’s a transit, it will pass.” Worthy of needle-pointing on a pillow. And it’s a comforting thought … but is that the point of a transit, to just endure it until it moves on? Presumably we’re meant to learn from them – though it’s next to impossible to that do in the moment.

Capricorn New Moon: Affirm a Miraculous Year

by Simone Butler

You might create an altar in a part of your home that feels uplifting to you, and include a picture of Our Lady or a seven-day candle with her image on it (many grocery stores have them). Then, add anything else that speaks to what you’re affirming for the New Year, and make sure the area is clean, clear and beautiful. At the New Moon, burn some sage and light the candle. Ask Our Lady to expedite whatever miracles you want to see in 2022 – for yourself and the world.

You find yourself naturally engaged in auspicious activities.  In this harmonizing spirit,  Capricorn is the perfect new moon to “level-up” in your relationship with Saturn.
