Change is sometimes low-key and behind the scenes.
“You will know it when it happens.”
With waning-crescent Moon this week just before the Nodes change sign, it is essential not to be a bystander in your own life. We don’t have any dramatic spicy transits but so much will have changed in the skies by week’s end.
While the energies are low-key compared to what we had at the start of this Cancer season, this is slated to be an action-packed week as Mars enters Virgo, one of his favorite signs, a week before the North Node enters his Aries rulership for the next 18 months.
Cancer season’s powerful initiating energy has been pushing us to make moves and become the change we want. In many ways, it culminates this week into new-moon in Cancer the following Monday. It’s no time to wait around and be a spectator in your own life even if the path forward is unclear. At the very least, we can wipe the slate clean of old baggage even as we invest in projects for the future we want.
With anaretic Mars and Mercury, we have a lot of confusing and bottled-up energy at the start of the week. With Mercury and Venus inconjunct Saturn and Neptune respectively, we have a lot of confusing and bottled-up energy at the end of the week.
Move we must anyway – action is revealing. The more we do now, the more grounding we will have to work with when the Nodes enter the Aries-Libra axis, and when the forced relationship dump begins into Venus retrograde. It’s no time for fear and hesitation, it’s time to make space physically and mentally for the flourishment we want in our lives going forward.
Make those steps. Baby steps, but steps. Every day this week.
