NEW MOON - JULY 5, 2024

The New Moon is on Friday, July 5, at 5:57 pm CDT in 14° Cancer.   The sign Cancer relates to home and family, nurturing people, pets, and the plants in your house and garden. Designing and developing a calm, peaceful environment can be very beneficial at this New Moon.
​
The Moon represents our emotions and in Cancer brings extra sensitivity.  The Neptune stationary point of July 2nd at 29° Pisces adds to this sensitivity. We all feel extra hurt if criticized and maybe extra angry. When we get in that type of agitated state it's harder than usual to relax. Some aura cleansing like deep breathing or taking a warm shower can be helpful. Other aura cleansing can be aural - like listening to a recorded mantra. Maybe you don't need three hours of OM like this recording, but even 5 or 10 minutes can make a difference. 

I have a whole list of mantras I like on my playlist:​​
Mantra, Kirtan, Chanting
​We have so many other techniques in our spiritual toolbox, don't we? Hatha yoga is balancing. Walking in nature, especially by water, can be very healing for the New Moon in Cancer emotional fluctuations.

I'm in the middle of reading Ray Grasse's latest book "So, What Am I Doing Here, Anyway?" I've been highlighting so much in the Kindle version that if this were a paper book it would be very colorful. My favorite chapters are the ones about symbolism and the ones about astrology and, of course, the ones about both.

​I like this quote from his book:

"If science is to ever recognize the worth of astrology, it will need to do what Kepler and others like him did, which is to open their minds to the possibility of a world filled with meaning and symbolism, rather than a cosmos entirely bereft of it."
