Moon in Cancer: Sanctuary of the Heart
Astrolog: Moon at 27 degrees of Cancer conjuncts Saturn, currently transiting my 3rd House.
A burnished moon lights the path where a storm has just passed. As I walk along the devastated shore, spiral seashells peek out of the silvery sand, shadows softening the whorls that seem to whisper their intrinsic wisdom:
Nothing is permanent but Change.

At the moment, the Moon dwells in her home sign of Cancer where she is at the zenith of her power. She is Moon Mother, the ruler of the tides, the paradigm of alteration and modification, the revealer of hearts, and the window of the soul. At her feet, rigid facts end and from her head, formless impressions begin. She is the lap of stability and support in this land that the angry sea had lain to waste, the core that remains when the fragile vessel of illusion breaks. As everything I have counted on is washed away, she offers hope that even the worst situation will change.
The Message of the Spiral
Who am I? It is not easy to know myself fully inasmuch as the other side of the Moon is forever hidden from view. But even as she is shrouded in mystery, her reflective power brings sapience for me to incorporate the constantly moving energies of creation as well as destruction.
No matter how far I will have gone, the constant movement of the Universe will always lead me back to the center of my being...
...To realize that all is in flux, that nothing ever stands still...
...To level the clashing waves of optimism and pessimism and to heal the internal split...
...To give up authority so that life may unfold without hindrance even if I find it difficult to give up control...
...And yet to regain the power I have let go, to own what I have previously owned...
...To look back whence I came and glean the accumulated wisdom of my forebears so I may discern the worthy from the fruitless and the ephemeral...
...To follow my conscience for it lights the path to the best choice...
...To remain inspired even at my nadir, so that my expanding creativity will be a source of inspiration to all that I touch.
The road to mastery remains long and arduous, but I know that one day I will be able to acknowledge and express my emotions fully and confidently.
One day I will be able to experience the experiences of others and understand their feelings.
One day, my beast will be conquered, my will tempered by compassion, and illuminating perception will allow me to draw out the best in others as well as myself.
I surrender to the flow of the Universe.
I repose in the stillness of my sanctuary.
Anima Mundi. May I return to the source of my being.
