Quick Self-Care Tips
- You may feel sensitive. Honor your needs.
- Check in with any actions or decisions you need to make. Find the courage to be honest with yourself and others.
- Consider where you need to take a stand for yourself or others that aligns with your values.
Moon in Cancer
Today, the moon is in Cancer, highlighting feelings and emotions. This means the general mood revolves around sensitivity. Embrace your vulnerability as a source of power, not a weakness.
Self-Care in the Face of Vulnerability
With the Moon in Cancer, you might feel exposed, like a soft-shell crab without its protective shell. Recognize that these sensitive parts reflect your deepest truths. Honesty with yourself and others is key to being your best self. Self-care empowers you to reach your full potential.
The Power of Feeling and Nurturing
Acknowledge and feel your emotions instead of pushing them aside. Cancer energy emphasizes nurturing yourself and others. Offer a caring presence, holding space for others without trying to fix their problems. Like a caregiver comforting a child, your presence can help others process their feelings and move forward.
First Quarter Moon and Mars in Cancer
The first quarter moon in Cancer presents a challenge, urging you to shift your perspective and make decisions that align with your higher potential. With Mars also in Cancer, you have the warrior energy to defend and protect what you care about, including your vulnerable self and those in need.
Taking a Stand and Embracing Vulnerability
Use this Mars energy to stand up for what matters, aligning your actions with your values. Embrace vulnerability to be more true to yourself, acknowledging your needs and the importance of caring for one another in society. As you head into the weekend, consider how you can change your habits to align with what is most important to you.
Mobilizing Energy and Alignment
The current moon cycle, influenced by the solar eclipse in Aries and the movement of Mars towards its opposition with Pluto, encourages you to discover your individual power and take action from a place of deep values. This all moves you towards alignment with Neptune in Aries.
