Astrological Transits

Moon is in Cancer! Conjunct with and approaching two planets, Venus and then Mars! The Moon is also waning now, and there is a continuing Saturn aspect which will begin increasing now also. This is going to be an interesting transit experience with a confluence of these three energies in Cancer, let me explain.

Moon is in its Own sign Cancer! This is a water sign and so it is very receptive and intuitive. You could find your feeling level is enhanced, and you can experience things more on emotional level now. Cancer is like a deep ocean, it carries with it a kind of deep richness of experience which is lively and sentient at all times. It is also a very nurturing sign, ruling maternity and all things related including agriculture, water sports and home life. And anything which might require a tender touch. Its also a good day to wear white and pink!

Moon will first be approaching Venus in this sign, which adds some extra feelings of Harmony which can already be felt. Venus is actually very well placed in Cancer, since harmony and feeling go very well together. This is a great time to appreciate good music and find that sweet spot in your feelings, since Venus is all about sweetness in experiences. This influence will also denote good food and other comforts related to the senses now also including good food and clothes as well as other wealth related enjoyments.

After Venus Moon will collide with Mars which is not so well placed in Cancer. It tends to inflate or stir up emotions in a way that cannot be immediately resolved. Look for this influence more from tomorrow onwards. Moon will pass Mars on Thursday, and so you should notice more energy and generally increased levels of intensity beginning tomorrow. And combined with the Venus influence it could stir up passion and desires quite strongly in Cancer. This combination is very interesting, so pay attention to desires of the Heart tomorrow especially.

Saturn has been aspecting the Moon already for several days, and its aspect will increase significantly after today. This will help to check experiences by slowing down time, teaching us lessons of emotional maturity. So even with Moon being nearby Mars and Venus, the influence from Saturn will also denote some kind of humility of need to be conservative about how you feel also. But it also shows the need to pay more attention to work and responsibilities this week.

Overall it’s a really good transit for getting in touch with your Heart. The predominant influence will be of Feeling, and so notice a tendency to appreciate more through this avenue now. This is a great transit for Home life, listening to music or working out on the land. It is also superb for swimming Thursday onwards. Moon is waning now too, so plan to have a more restful experience overall, as long as you stay busy taking care of responsibilities now. Plan for it to be a really restful weekend! More on that later. Enjoy!
