Moonshine Horoscopes -- Cancer New Moon Edition

"Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our greatest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure." -- Marianne Williamson

 
Dear Friend and Reader:
 
In today's Moonshine horoscopes below, Genevieve Hathaway has interpreted this Cancer New Moon for each of the 12 Moon signs. The New Moon is the conjunction of the Sun and Moon, beginning a new lunar cycle. This one occurs on July 8 at 3:14 am EDT. (View full chart here.)

Your Moon sign is where the Moon was when you were born, which you can find out by entering your birth data into Serennu.com. It helps to have your birth time but often that is not necessary. You can also try reading these horoscopes for your Sun and rising signs for additional layers of insight.
 
At first glance, this looks like a fairly simple New Moon compared to some of the New and Full Moons we've had this year, where everything but the kitchen sink was involved. In terms of major planets, the Sun and Moon will be conjunct retrograde Mercury within couple degrees or so.
 
A quick look at a minor planet listing, however, shows there are some rarely used objects hanging out on the cardinal cross with the Sun, Moon and Mercury. The New Moon is exactly conjunct the asteroid Atlantis (representing the myth of a civilization misusing its power) and opposite Crantor in Capricorn (often a cathartic, emotional declaration according to Phil Sedgwick). Conjunct Mercury's degree we have Atropos in Cancer (of the three Fates, she's the one who cuts the cord of life) and, making a square from Libra, Haumea (a Hawaiian creation goddess).

It's worth noting that the presence of Atlantis is serving as a wake-up call on the potential consequences of spying -- on both governmental and personal levels. It's a classic Atlantean abuse of power.
 
What does it all add up to? In this instance, the Sabian symbol for the New Moon degree offers a unifying theme: "The unfoldment of multilevel potentialities issuing from an original germ [as in a seed, which germinates]. The life urge to actualize one's birth potential."
 
That symbol represents a tremendous amount of potential contained in something so small and outwardly simple, it can seem like a miracle that an entire plant grows from it -- a plant which then makes more seeds and has a multitude of unique characteristics and uses. We have incredible potential to grow, to create, to become something wildly unique. We also carry the potential to destroy and to end life.
 
That's a lot of power. Most people rarely abuse it to the extent that they can, but some do. Many people never develop it creatively to the extent they are able, either. But fears around both the potential abuse of one's power (which is unlikely if you're aware of it) and one's best potential success and creative ability can have the same effect: emotional paralysis.
 
Retrograde Mercury is taking your emotional awareness deep into this complex material, and you may find yourself expressing it in surprising ways to relieve any tension. The Sun and Moon are germinating a new cycle in the degree of germination. Growth is inevitable; you have a choice about its direction and how you feel about it. Does fearing your power really get you anywhere?
 
Yours & truly,

Amanda Painter

Cancer New Moon Moonshine Horoscopes | By Genevieve Hathaway

Aries (March 20-April 19)
Aries (March 20-April 19) -- The Sun, Moon and retrograde Mercury are presently meeting up in the area of your chart that has a lot to do with your internal landscape. You can think of this as your most private thoughts and feelings. This astrology is driving you deep into yourself to examine the different aspects of who you are and how they fit together. Part of what you are making contact with and honoring is your own inherent complexity. It may seem like there are potentially competing versions of you, though really they are all part of the same continuum. As you check out these new aspects of who you are, I suggest holding space for all parts of yourself; from there it will be apparent how you can live a lifestyle that does in fact satisfy and fulfill all of you. -- by Genevieve Hathaway

Taurus (April 19- May 20)
Taurus (April 19-May 20) -- You are trying to communicate an idea that may seem a little too far out of reach to fully articulate it. Think of it as similar to the sensation you get when something is 'on the tip of your tongue'. The idea is there, but just out of your grasp. What you are working to express verbally is something that you know innately, but may not be clear for a few close partners. I suggest you proceed with patience; over the next week enough pieces of information will become clear that you will have the words and concepts to convey what you've been wishing to convey. Think of it as reverse engineering -- you are taking the pieces and working backwards to the whole concept. It may take a few conversations, but you will be able to innately convey your idea to close partners. -- by Genevieve Hathaway

Gemini (May 20- June 21)
Gemini (May 20-June 21) -- Over next week's New Moon, you are reworking a specific idea you had involving your emotional resources. As an air sign, your natural emotional state is a bit detached; though recently you've been making contact with an emotional depth that at times may seem overwhelming. I suggest approaching more sensitive and deeper emotions from something you know quite a bit about -- accuracy. Think of what you are learning as simply expanding your emotional tool belt from which you can draw information to convey how you feel. The more tools you have in your tool belt, the greater ability you have to be very specific with your emotions. As you shift your perspective, you will gain insight into a way to bring depth to your emotional state while still maintaining the distance that you feel comfortable with. -- by Genevieve Hathaway

Cancer (June 21- July 22)
Cancer (June 21-July 22) -- On July 8, a powerful New Moon is taking place in your Moon sign. It is meeting up with Mercury, which has been swimming backwards through this area of your chart, allowing you to reevaluate your emotional framework. Think of this experience as checking in to see how you respond internally to the external world; note where you wish to alter your patterns of response. How do you feel and how do you respond to what you are feeling? Many important events, both in your personal life and in the larger public realm, are providing multiple opportunities for you to test new modes of emotional response. I suggest proceeding with a healthy dose of curiosity and willingness to experiment. The patterns you are creating now will bring lasting changes to how you experience your life. -- by Genevieve Hathaway

Leo (July 22- Aug. 23)
Leo (July 22-Aug. 23) -- Your subconscious is expanding, helping you contact regions you may not have been aware existed. If it feels like you are presently living there more than you are living in your daily life, I suggest not worrying too much about it. Think of this process as re-accessing your conscious self through the back door that is your subconscious. You are in the process of bringing part of your subconscious into your open internal space. At the moment, you are in a unique position of having tremendous clarity regarding what are usually quite murky and unclear parts of yourself. Proceed with an awareness of what you are learning; take the time to let this process fully unfold. Some important pieces of information are becoming available that will help you understand how to work with these newly discovered parts of your subconscious. -- by Genevieve Hathaway

Virgo (Aug. 23- Sep. 22)
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) -- A partner is applying some pressure for you to change your relationship to a group you are part of. I suggest slowing down and delaying taking any action; instead collect additional data and double-check the information they and you are working with. This partner means well, but they may not be operating with all the information or may be letting personal motives influence their perspective. Double- and triple-check all the motives of those involved. It's possible something important is not being taken fully into account. Over the July 8 New Moon, new information will be available that will help you in making a decision about your relationship to your groups, and whether it is a mutually beneficial relationship. The key to look for is an arrangement that benefits both you and the group you are part of. -- by Genevieve Hathaway

Libra (Sep. 22 - Oct. 23)
Libra (Sep. 22-Oct. 23) -- At the moment, you are in the process of rethinking how your method of communication and your public reputation are related. Their connectedness is becoming even more apparent than usual, allowing you to see how they influence each other. You innately have a lot of respect for the power of words and the idea that what you say can further your position or negatively impact your reputation. Proceed slowly as you reevaluate how you use words in terms of your public image. A few important ideas will be coming to light that will help you make some changes to continually build a strong public presence. Remember that communicating a concept or idea can be done in a number of forms and often involves more listening than speaking. -- by Genevieve Hathaway

Scorpio (Oct. 23- Nov. 22)
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) -- Next week's Cancer New Moon is bringing you into contact with your desire nature in a way that you may not have had access to or thought about before. You can think of this as re-inventing an attitude toward what you desire. Important information is coming up for examination. Think of this process like the old style of washing clothes with a washing board. You lather, scrub, rinse, and repeat. As you work and rework a few new ideas, take note of the connections between them. You are combining these individual ideas and themes into a larger concept that will guide your personal philosophy. What is forming is a new approach to your relationship to desire and the action that follows from this internal information. -- by Genevieve Hathaway

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 - Dec. 22)
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 22) -- You are negotiating and navigating your way through an interesting maze. The situation seems like the perfect setup for you to demonstrate your self-confidence and faith in yourself. I suggest not worrying about how you are perceived; instead focus on bringing your true self into your encounters with others. Put another way -- that means no facades, white lies or masks. At the same time, you are receiving a reminder to be realistic about who others are. You are in a unique opportunity to have plenty of traction in all sincere exchanges with close partners. Be confident in the person whom you normally keep a few layers below the surface, and who yearns to be fully expressed and present in the world. As you hold space for you to show up fully, close partners will also do the same. -- by Genevieve Hathaway

Capricorn (Dec. 22- Jan. 20)
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) -- You are working out an aspect of your relationship with yourself through a close partnership, and navigating your way through what may feel like a complex relationship situation. It may come with the sensation that you are negotiating a maze blindfolded. This moment lets you tap into your self-confidence in a manner you did not realize was possible before. Trust that you understand where both you and a partner are coming from and take the time to double-check each other's motivations through careful conversation. Ultimately, what the situation is calling for is authentic communication: telling your truth and listening to the other person's honest answer without adding any of your own inner dialogue to what they are saying. This process is bringing you a deeper level of intimacy and that goes a long way to giving you the sensation of emotional security. -- by Genevieve Hathaway

Aquarius (Jan. 20- Feb. 19)
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Your health is one of the factors that influences the amount of energy you have to work with. You've been learning for quite a while that your energy is a precious resource to be taken care of. You are making significant headway in connecting the dots between your emotional health and physical health. What you are gaining is a shift in perspective that is helping you make some marked changes to your daily routine. Your surrounding environment and your psychic body are all providing you with information on the types of structures that promote feeling strong -- emotionally and physically. This may involve some potentially large changes to your habits and also to what your environment contains. Ultimately, as your health is highlighted, even large changes will seem both doable and important to make in your life. -- by Genevieve Hathaway

Pisces (Feb. 19- March 20)
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) -- A powerful New Moon is drawing attention to the resources at your disposal -- specifically your creativity and the people you can reach out to, and where those two areas of your life intersect. You are learning to leverage your network of contacts and your creativity to build your vision. Think of your network as your net worth. Who you know and how you apply your creativity to situations will help you make a lot of progress. You are in a watershed moment of understanding some of your past motivations for believing that you did not have the resources to create what you desired for your life. As you work with what you are learning, I suggest applying the approach that what has happened belongs in the past and does not dictate what the future can be -- that is something you continually reinvent to match your evolving vision. -- by Genevieve Hathaway
