WORK URANUS: NEW MOON IN CANCER HOROSCOPES
The New Moon in Cancer on July 9, 2021 is a good time to note that change is stability.
While Venus and Mars oppose Saturn, and Venus, Mars, and Saturn square Uranus, the Sun and Moon will make a harmonious sextile to Uranus, the rebellious planet of awakening and surprise. It’s this “what-just-happened?” Uranus energy that can free us from the quagmire presented by the aforementioned rough aspects. So, if the fights you’re fighting are making you think there must be a better way—you may be right.
With the New Moon’s opposition to Pluto, the planet of transformation, now may be the time to bid adieu to that which is holding you back, and set your sights on seas that aren’t so tumultuous — that are instead easy, breezy, fresh, fun, and new. This New Moon is in Cancer, after all, so it’s all about feeling more “at home” and secure in the area of your life affected by this transit.
To see which life area the New Moon is likely to catalyze a new beginning in your life, determine where 18 degrees of Cancer resides in your astrological chart. Likewise, read your sign and/or rising sign below.
Aries: As the Cancerian New Moon transits your Fourth House of Emotional Security, it’s time to find your “happy place.” Save yourself the trouble of trying to find something outside yourself to make you feel better; that’s not how it works: You have to make peace within yourself and where you are now, and from that new emotional set point, find that which will continue to make you feel happy and satisfied. Though traditionally this transit is said to affect your home and family, your true “home” you take around with you wherever you go, and your “family” can be summed up as whatever and whomever you find familiar and comforting. Thus, take some time to soothe yourself over the next two weeks, tapping into the divine mother within. Maybe you need to take an extra day off each week, or perhaps you’re ready to find a new home that better matches how you wish to feel on a day-to-day basis. Though you may want to develop deeper relations during this time, start by being there more for yourself, and then allowing others to follow suit. Over the next two weeks, clock your level of vitality, as that will clue you in on what needs to go and what you might want to change.
Taurus: As the New Moon transits your Third House of Communications, your thinking is getting an upgrade. Shakespeare said, “Nothing is good or bad but thinking makes it so,” suggesting that circumstances are inherently neutral—that we are the assigners of meaning. So before you assign negative meaning to an inherently neutral circumstance, you may want to consider how you can leverage “what is” to your advantage. By assigning positive meaning to everything, you are more likely to derive positive results. Remember, you always have the power to see things differently, and in a way that is more advantageous to you. In this vein, over the next two weeks, your communications with others in your immediate environment are likely to change. Perhaps you’ll want to start a new social activity, or write, teach, or learn something new. With your mind refreshed, touch base with siblings to practice your new thought patterns, or go on a short-distance trip to jumpstart your new way of thinking in a fresh, positive way.
Gemini: As the Cancerian New Moon transits your Second House of Values, your voice is a theme. By speaking up and saying your peace and expressing yourself through your talents and abilities, you increase your sense of self-worth, which contributes to your financial wellness, another theme of this transit. To get the most out of this lunation, use the next two weeks to clarify your values. Life’s twists and turns over the past several months may have jostled your priorities, so now it’s important to take stock. With a better understanding of what you care about most, you can build a life that feels better than ever. When you feel good, you’re in the vibrational space to co-create with the universe whatever you want. You’ll be able to create more abundance in your life because abundance is a flow: In knowing where you stand, what you stand for, and what you want out of life, you’ll avoid second guessing yourself and stifling your contradictory impulses — instead you’ll be able to row your boat gently down the stream. To facilitate this flow, express yourself more. Talking, writing, singing, dancing, etc. will help. Then, by following your highest excitement and taking practical, inspired action, you will allow more financial abundance to flow into your life.
Cancer: Happy Birthday, Cancer! As the New Moon in your sign transits your First House of Identity, you have a chance to feel better than ever before. Everything you could ever want in the world starts with the subconscious belief that you already have it—albeit in a parallel reality or in your imagination. Thus, for any changes to occur, they have to first take place in the psyche. What does it feel like to have what you want? Can you stay in that emotional space and practice it often? Can you be happy with the emotional manifestation of having what you desire and not be pissy about its physical manifestation having not arrived yet? Once you do, its physical manifestation is en route! Since your sign is so feeling oriented, it’s important to note how you feel about the different areas of your life. When you feel good or bad about a subject, it’s because of your beliefs about it. When you change your beliefs, you change the way you feel, and then you allow the universe to deliver. A magnet doesn’t concern itself with what it attracts; it just attracts it. Likewise, if you can use this New Moon to create a new emotional awareness within yourself of having all you desire, you will reestablish a new identity from which all of your dreams can come true. So, make your wish list of all those things that will brighten up your world. Then, practice the feeling of having those things, be satisfied with the feeling state alone (not its physical manifestation)—and physical manifestations will come. Remember, you are ruled by the moon, so it’s all about calibrating yourself to the emotional results of what you want to experience, and then letting the ocean do its thing.
Leo: As the Cancerian New Moon transits your Twelfth House of the Subconscious, you have the chance to instill new beliefs about yourself and what you can have — which will change your reality! As you gear up for your birthday, you’ll want empower your subconscious, as we get in life what we subconsciously believe we are. So, over the next two weeks, take time to meditate, rest, and turn inward. Dial into how you want your life to be. Tap into the feelings you want to experience. Use your imagination to visualize having what you want…perfect health, a surplus of money, an amazing mate, etc. The subconscious can’t differentiate between what’s being imagined and what’s actually happening, and when there’s a discrepancy between the two, the subconscious cannot rest until it makes them coincide. While moving through life from that space of fulfillment, take inspired, actionable steps toward the goal. You’re powerful, Leo, and can tap into the divine by connecting with your heart, so be sure to spend time doing things that really light you up! Shortcut your manifestations by practicing feelings of relief in regard to the subjects that are most important to you.
Virgo: As the New Moon in Cancer transits your Eleventh House of Big Thinking, now’s the time to consider your highest hopes, dreams, wishes and goals. The Eleventh House is the house of “why not?” i.e., why not go after what you want? There are no “dangling carrots” in the universe, so your desires come with the built-in, prerequisite ability for you to achieve them. Granted, there may be sacrifices and adjustments you have to make, but anything you want is truly realizable. Help along the way will be your friends or groups of like-minded people also inspired about life and its possibilities. Spend time with friends you can support and can support you, or put yourself out there and find people with whom you can relate. Once you believe your greatest hopes, dreams and wishes are possible, commit to actionable steps to make them happen. Even if a specific strategy doesn’t yield the results you desire, remember the energy you put forth doesn’t just evaporate — it’s put toward your end-game in a way perhaps unbeknownst to you. Do everything you can to stay clear this month, keeping up with diet, exercise, meditation, and rest so the power of the universe can easily flow through you to help you manifest your miracles. All miracles are based on love, so love, love, love, love — love everyone and everything in your own charming, inimitable way.
Libra: As the New Moon in Cancer transits your Tenth House of Career, now’s the time to go for the gold and achieve more recognition and status in your career. Consider what you want to contribute to the world and what impact you want to have. You’re in an advantageous position to make shifts now, so plant seeds and take action over the next two weeks (the sooner, the better). Whether you want to rise in the ranks in the career you have now, or embark on an exciting new trajectory, this is the month to do it. As a Libra, you can be rational, strategic, and savvy which can help you achieve great heights professionally. Perceive in your mind the end result of what you desire, conjure up its feelings, and pretend it’s already happened; then take inspired action. Belief combined with practical action based on faith is all you need to do to reach the next level. Over the next two weeks, powerful VIPs are likely to be in your corner, so do what you can to get in front of them and strut your stuff! If nothing else, now’s the time to consider your longterm professional plans, and carve out a practical strategy that makes them realizable.
Scorpio: As the New Moon in Cancer transits your Ninth House of the Higher Mind, the stars want you to soar, with ripe opportunities to expand and broaden your horizons. You’re likely to have “itchy feet” now, craving something fresh, new, unfamiliar, and different! During this time, you’ll want to feel larger than life. One way to do this is to publish, broadcast or somehow share yourself with the world, so you can experience your presence everywhere. With the world having access to you, by reading your work or hearing you speak, for instance, you experience yourself as you really are — truly infinite. Another way you can use this transit is to literally go across the world, by planning a trip to a far-off place. You may also choose to expand by broadening your horizons right where you are, by reading new literature or experiencing art that transports you to a another world. Likewise, learning philosophy and developing your spirituality can also widen your perspective. Consider what you want to experience this month, as well as how you’d like the world to experience YOU. Gift yourself a sense of limitlessness and go far and wide. More now than any other time of the year, the world is your oyster!
Sagittarius: “Let go and go with the flow,” is probably the best advice, as the New Moon in Cancer transits your Eighth House of Rebirth and Transformation. The only constant in the universe is change; change, therefore, is stability. This lunation will pave the way for change, healing and a new beginning. Therefore, the question begs to be asked: How do you want your life to be different? Do you wish to switch careers? Are you ready to move in closer with someone, or send them on their merry little way? Whatever it is we want, we want it because we believe that having it will make us feel better. So, as you mourn and let go of what no longer suits you, consider what you want and how you will feel once you have it. By embodying the emotional state of having what you desire, you shortcut your manifestations. Essentially, the universe wants you to be happy with the idea of having what you want, and once you are satisfied emotionally, the actual manifestation lets itself in. Empowerment is the name of your game this month, and key to that now is letting go of what you have so you can have more. In this vein, the concept of boundaries may surface this month — the ones you set and the ones you dissolve. A good rule of thumb is if a person, place, or thing makes you feel bad, create a boundary; contrarily, if someone or something makes you feel good, dissolve the boundary and move in closer. Let what feels good grow, and let what feels bad go. Feeling good should be your number one priority irrespective of anyone or anything else.
Capricorn: As the New Moon in Cancer transits your Seventh House of Partnerships, you have the opportunity to strengthen the partnerships you’re in, or find some new ones that really punch your ticket. Whether you want a blissful romantic relationship or an empowering professional partnership, the universe is queued up to deliver, waiting for you to be ready. While life may have been unpredictable over the past few months, now you’re given the green light to get your relationships in order. Have those important talks that will allow your relations to flourish; mend fences if you feel a partnership is salvageable and worth another go. If you want to attract into your life personal and professional partners who really get you, make a list of all the qualities you want, and start your search! Further, some great strides can be made with this transit if you spend some time in the shoes of others in your life: Consider what they need and how you can help. Since we don’t have control over what others do, focus on the energy you’re flowing in your relationships and into your relationship ideals — that’s the best way to leverage this New Moon over the next two weeks.
Aquarius: As the New Moon in Cancer transits your Sixth House of Lifestyle, you have the opportunity now to get your life running like a very happy, well-oiled machine! This transit is typically about “health” and “work” — what we do day in and day out, so you’re now in the perfect position to improve your daily goings-on. If it’s a new job you think would make life easier, consider what that looks like and take action over the next two weeks. If your current job could use some changes, implementing those now is also likely to be successful. Additionally, you may want to consider how you feel physically, using the new moon to jumpstart a new exercise or diet regimen. The changes you make now need not be mundane: Your mental health is everything, so if going out more and painting the town red fulfills you, perhaps that ought to be part of your regularly scheduled program. Likewise, it might be a class or more time spent meditating, watching movies, or hanging with friends and family that light you up. Figure out the right combination of things that would make you well and happy: What work would you do, how would your body feel, what activities would restore your spirit on a regular basis? With the right balance of things in place, you’ll find everything supports everything else. Start implementing into your day-to-day life those things that make your heart happy — and your work, health, and everything else are likely to flourish.
Pisces: As the New Moon in Cancer transits your Fifth House of Pleasure, true love, play, fun, and creativity will be the name of your game! The Fifth House encapsulates so much of what you really love: romance, good times, and your children if you have any, so this should be an especially magical two weeks for you, during which you can plant the seeds for more happiness and growth. Over this period, you’ll likely feel really creative, ready to laugh and have fun. Consider what will make your heart happy; the energetic field around your heart is way more powerful than the brain, so the better your heart feels, the more energy you’ll have for everyone and everything else. Once you have an idea of what lights you up, go out there and experience it full tilt! Now that eclipse season is over, these two weeks are perfect for manifesting love, romance, good times, and whatever else brings a smile across your face. During this transit, you’ll get a chance to really get in touch with your inner child. By embodying the kid within, you’ll see how creative you can be in every life area: exercise and diet, wealth management, having more fun in your relationships — the list goes on and on. By focusing on what makes you happy, you’ll be more alive and experience life more fully. Use the next two weeks to discover what “gets your lights on,” as that will light up the world.
