Week Ahead Astrology 6/1-6/7
@anamariapinedacom

A Full Moon occurred over the weekend in the sign of Sagittarius, activating all the Mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces) in our Astrological charts, and influencing some part of our lives. Notice what has come up for you during this period.

A Full Moon illuminates, culminates and brings fulfillment. Something in our consciousness or in our mind has become clear. Something is culminating. Our eyes and senses are now open to greater clarity. There is a completion or fulfillment of a spiritual lesson. The Light of our Soul illuminates our minds and hearts so we may receive new insights and perspectives. We are awakened and this week we are still feeling the influence of the Full Moon.

During the Full Moon, Mercury, the planet of the mind, communication and movement, was in Gemini and is now ready to change signs from air to water. Water is sensitive, intuitive, and gentle. Mercury is entering the sign of Cancer early this week.  

About Mercury in Cancer

Mercury in mythology is Hermes. The only God capable of traveling effortlessly between the Upper and Lower Worlds of the Divine Realms. Hermes could enter the Heavens where the Gods dwell and He could enter the depths of Hell.  Hermes is the Messenger of the Gods. He brings information from the Divine into the hearts and minds of those on Earth. These insights can take the form of signs, synchronicities, dreams and aha moments. Hermes is a travel guide. He walks with us as we travel through this lifetime on Earth. He helps us transition from one chapter of our lives into the next. Notice what is shifting in your life now. Mercury is changing signs from air (our mind) into water (our emotions) this week. There will be more clarity coming in through our feelings, emotions and intuition.

Mercury enters the sign of Cancer on Monday.  Mercury in Cancer brings heightened sensitivity and awareness to our emotions. Cancer is ruled by the Moon, the luminary that rules the body, feelings and intuition. Cancer feels and intuits. It just knows. Cancer rules the stomach. The place where we feel our gut feelings and knowing. During this period our gut is speaking. It is teaching us about our intuition and about how to better nurture, support and provide nutrition to our body. Notice when you can’t stomach something or when your gut doesn’t feel right about something. Notice gut feelings. Trust your gut during this period. The body does not lie.

Mercury in Cancer is also a great period to deepen our emotional awareness. Cancer is private and protective. We all have Cancer in our chart. Where Cancer is in your chart is the place where you are sensitive, vulnerable, tender and gentle. It is the sanctum of the inner being. It is a place deep within you that is protected by the shell and walls you’ve created around you from the external world. It is the place where only your Soul and God are allowed. Cancer is also the womb. The place where we birth from. The hidden place within the heart.

Cancer is rules the home, family and children. Home within. Home in the outer world. While Mercury is Cancer we are asked to focus on our home, family and children. What do they need at this time? Cancer is the people you truly feel are your tribe. While Mercury travels through Cancer we have a great opportunity to deepen our bonds with those we feel are family. We have an opportunity to be more vulnerable, sensitive and gentle. We have an opportunity to explore our deeper sensitivities and feelings. We can redefine home. Beautify our home inside and out. Let people in or set clearer boundaries. It is a beautiful time to open the center of our flower, protected and guided by the Divine.

Cancer is asking us to make space for our Soul. We are asked to make our inner and outer spaces safe and comfortable. During this period of time, new insights, ideas and perspectives are coming in from the Divine in the areas of our lives ruled by the Moon: home, family, emotions, our physical body, children, women and what makes us feel relaxed, calm and secure. Notice new insights, ideas, and changes in perspective. Notice what changes you are inspired to make in your life in these areas.

Mercury Retrograde

When Mercury goes retrograde, we have an opportunity to think things through. We can clean up our minds and hearts and make space for new insights and new perspectives. Mercury will be going retrograde in the sign of Cancer, from June 29th through July 23rd. Mercury will remain in the sign of Cancer until August 9th. This means that from now until the first weeks of August our minds are asked to focus on the areas of our lives ruled by the Moon and Cancer. We are asked to focus on home, family/tribe, children, mother/mothering, what nurtures us, food/nutrition, our body, and our emotions. Mercury will be helping us to examine, review/redo, and clean up these areas of our lives.

Mercury is also preparing us for the Summer Solstice period, which begins during Cancer Season.  Somewhere in your life, a new chapter begins this Summer. Mercury is helping us transition from one phase of life into another. Notice what new insights and clarity is coming into your mind and heart from now until mid-August.  

Mercury will trine the North Node of Fate on Wednesday, so we may have more clarity about these areas of our lives during the middle and end of the week. Important conversations and meetings may occur at this time. However, Mercury squares Neptune so we may be disappointed by an outcome or may need more clarity before making a final choice or decision. Fated pathways are opening. Pay attention.

The Sun is moving into a trine with the Moon which will culminate on Friday. This is a great week to work on improving our relationships with others. Noticing what we want to grow and flourish, and allowing the weeds to slowly transform on their own. This week go with the flow. Notice your emotions but don’t let them rule you. Listen carefully to your intuition as Mercury is bringing insights and clarity through our inner knowing. This week, focus on your nest, your tribe and the things you truly care about.
