May 7- June 5
VENUS enters Cancer: Home is where the heart is and the heart IS home.
This energy turns our hearts and our stomachs homeward bound.
This is very feminine energy, highly sensitive, emotional, mothering- great for Mother’s Day.
Do beautify your nest, put in a water feature, renovate a kitchen or bathroom or find a place you will love to call home.
This is the nurturing, plentiful, bountiful, beautiful Mother Goddess. The way to anyone’s heart with Venus in Cancer is literally through their stomachs. Eat, eat like a stereotypical Jewish Mother. Children will express more emotions and will need to be especially nurtured and cared for during this time.
Venus, was born from the ocean, the source of all Life, as in the famous Botticelli painting. CANCER, is the ocean, the protective womb, the ocean.
Venus in Cancer symbolizes strong FERTILITY. Cancer is the womb, the unconscious, the dream world, sensation, receptivity. She is a mermaid.
FOOD + LOVE
Cancer is nourishment, Venus is quality. Venus in Cancer loves to eat, loves gorgeous presented food that is highly comforting and nutritious. There will be lots of cooking going on. Do take a cooking class to learn how to prepare and cook food and as a social means too. Cancer can be crabby and defensive and this also point out to eating disorders, eating for your emotions.
Venus in Cancer will highlight our need to protect our food from destructive GMO’s and MONSANTO’s hell-bent on destroying the food supply. Venus on the half-shell. The value of all creatures in the ocean is important, Whales, dolphins, sharks, narwhals, seals, fish, crustaceans, these all need to be protected.
WATER
Spend time near water, swim if you can, meditate and reflect on water. Do stay hydrated. Drink plenty of water. Do a water puja everyday. A water puja is a ritual where you offer water to a Goddess as a thank you. Water symbolizes consciousness as well as emotions. It can be done every time you wash your hands.
WATER is also our most precious commodity. Water shortages in California, in Brazil and in many parts of the world highlights our need to save, protect and value Water. Nestle’s CEO says humans DO NOT Have the right to water!!!! Such arrogance, such demonic energy. If we don’t have water there is no food, and no nothing else. The fashion excesses of our modern cultural show how values {Venus} are totally askew. There is technology that can make water out of thin air literally. These technologies need to be funded and brought into public usage.
PSYCHOLOGICALLY
It will be easier to express and be receptive to emotions during this month. Water dissolves all hardness so both men and women will benefit from this. Tears will flow way more easily, so use these cleansing tears as a release. It will build upon that powerful Scorpio Full Moon of May 3 see my article http://www.cosmicintelligenceagency.com/2015/05/scorpio-full-moon-meditation/
HOME
Do beautify your nest, put in a water feature, renovate a kitchen or bathroom or find a place you will love to call home. Go visit your Mom, sisters. Appreciate your “sisterhood.” Volunteer to help a women’s shelter, raise money for homeless people, volunteer at a food bank, or become a big sister.
Venus rules the Arts
A good time for artists to work with water themes, watercolors, a fluid evocative subtle beauty, maybe even do still life paintings. Also makes me think of Turner’s magnificent paintings. Impressionists.
