Cancer Season June 21- July 22
June 21 – July 22
Cancer season reminds us of the importance of nurturing ourselves, of feeling all of our emotions, of connecting with our hearts, and cultivating nourishing relationships with people who are family to us. Although Cancerians are very emotional, they have a hard shell-like the Crab, which symbolizes their Sign. However, they are very soft and sensitive under the shell, and that’s why harsh words from others can deeply hurt them. So you might find yourself feeling uber sensitive during this period and find it difficult to express your feelings.
Since Cancer is a Yin, Water, and Cardinal sign. All Cardinal archetypes begin a new evolutionary cycle, as they are associated with Solstices and Equinoxes, which mark the start of the four seasons. For this reason, the Sun entering Cancer inaugurates a new chapter of our growth, which will bring us on unbeaten paths and open new possibilities for personal and collective transformation.
Cancer is ruled by the Moon: it is connected with nurturing, protection, the feeling of home and family, and our experience of childhood. This sign reminds us of our need for safety and security, for love and care. The Sun is now illuminating our vulnerability and our sensitivity: during Cancer season, we have a chance to connect with both our inner child and our inner mother archetype.
