VENUS IN CANCER IS ALL ABOUT SELF-LOVE

Take me to the river, it’s a great time for cleansing, juice fasting and washing away any old toxic relationships especially with Mercury retro n Gemini right now.

Home is where the heart is, and the heart IS the home. 

This energy turns our hearts and our tummies homeward bound. 

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. 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 and luxury. 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. Watch that documentary, Seaspiracy.

VENUS makes some lovely aspects.

JUNE 12/13 VENUS SEXTILES URANUS- something different

June 21 VENUS TRINE NEPTUNE, MOST ROMANTIC DAY OF THE YEAR

JUNE 24 VENUS OPPOSITE PLUTO-INTENSE, LOVE OR POWER?

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 many parts of the world highlights our need to save, protect and value Water. If we don’t have water there is no food, and no nothing else.  With Jupiter in Pisces until July 28 there may be flooding and typhoons even tsunamis.

PSYCHOLOGICALLY

It will be easier to express and be receptive to emotions during this time. Water dissolves all hardness so everyone can benefit from this. With so much talk of mental health issues and healing our childhood wounds Venus in Cancer helps the cleansing, mourning tears to help us heal.

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.

This planet and sign are evoked in two Tarot Trumps the EMPRESS #3 with the Chariot # 7 the sign of Cancer.

Cancer is the natural 4th house of roots, childhood, privacy, the womb, the unconscious, endings. Check where the planet of beauty, grace, love, and sexuality and war is transiting through your Natal Chart to find out how this will affect you.

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.

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.

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.

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.

July aspects, what to expect

July 1                                             Is Canada’s 150th Birthday   

A proud shout out to the True North strong and free. May you be even stronger and freer, socially conscious and caring of your land and resources, the indigenous peoples and all of your citizens 150 years from now. Happy Canada Day eh, to all of my family, friends, and clients. Thanks to our Prime Minster Justin Trudeau for being a strong Feminist and a balanced innovative leader in so many wonderful ways. Thanks to all the wonderful Canadian artists, singers, musicians, filmmakers and other creative arts who contribute so much to the joy, expansion, and learning curve of the world. 

July 1 Chiron turns Retrograde- see article from June 30 

July 2 MARS in Cancer opposes PLUTO 

This is an intensely angry, explosive, pent-up emotional ready to blow up energy. Expect road rage, knife attacks, shootings, and family dysfunction being exposed. 

July 4 It’s America’s birthday. Venus enters chatty GEMINI

Happy Birthday U.S.A.  Venus is love and your current president is a chatty Gemini.

This is when you can not make up your mind about which one to be with. That’s ok with Venus in Gemini it’s all about flirty, youthful fun. Our love nature and our mental nature have two sides. Expect angel to the devil and back again and you can deal easily with this. 

July 5 Mercury enters LEO- Mental dramas and mind games.  

Say it hot, loud and proud. Be a star, take center stage, shout it out. Grandstand as much as you like. It’s time for your mind to party. Take a  brain vaca.  Leo rules the will and the heart. It’s time to tell it like it is. Venus and Mercury sextile each other on the 7th. 

July 7 Venus and Mercury sextile each other, that’s sweet.

JULY 8/9 FULL MOON IN CAPRICORN, Sun opposite PLUTO!!!

a very powerful rockin’ it Full MOON. Government and corporate issues that have been hidden come to light. The energies are more intense on the 9th with an added MARS in Cancer inconjunct to SATURN. Legal battles about water purity; women and children being sexually abused like #pizzagate will be in the news and legal investigations may begin or be brought back to trial. Be careful, homeland security fears will be at super high.

Sun opposite PLUTO exact 9th/10 Terrorism, explosive emotions, political battles etc. 

July  10 Ceres enters Cancer

This is where Ceres is most at home in the sign of the Mother. A nurturing, emotionally sensitive, sentimental, family reunion time. Nurture the waters, heal yourself in the waters of the womb. It’s extremely fertile if you are wanting to have a child. 

JULY 14 SUN in CANCER inconjunct SATURN 

This is a difficult aspect for women, children, food, emotional security and health care. Political laws are affecting the rights of women. Lobbying to change existing laws may be appealed in courts. 

July  20 Mars enters LEO and Sun squares URANUS

This is a proud loud happy party time. BIG TIME DRAMA. Be the Queen or King of your own domain. Get up there on stage and strut your stuff. A time to show what’s in your heart. Playfulness and creativity are important. The inner child wants to play and dance and sing and express. Boys just wanna have fun. Beware of ego battles.

July  22 Sun enters Leo

See above for MARS. Have courage, show your passion. Be a leader for what your heart tells yo to do. All of this Leo energy can be way too dramatic. Be careful of too much egotism, bling, show-offy stuff. Be generous instead. Be yourself, Leo is the sign of the heart open it wide. Be a great ruler and take care of your subjects. 

JULY 23 NEW MOON at 0 degrees LEO

A new beginning in heart chakra lessons. Mars conjuncts the MOON. A good party down night to celebrate and honor the dark moon by dancing in the dark. 

JULY 24 VENUS in GEMINI opposite SATURN in SAGITTARIUS

Get away, short trips or long. Decide where you want to go to school or learn some higher education lessons. Arguments about truth or fake news. Being attracted to two people or dating two or more at once, each of different nationalities and cultures at once.

July  25 Mercury enters Virgo

Mercury is home in its Feminine earthy sign. Time to focus on the details, get organized, declutter and get down to serious money time budget management. Diet and health are very important. Natural remedies and fresh organic foods that heal are best. It’s good to be in nature, don’t let worry take over. 

July 26 SUN conjuncts MARS

Plan a big party bash. Dancing in the streets. Go see a play, star in your own, or release your own creativity in public. Shower the one you love with love and gifts. Be proud, have courage Be sovereign in your own life. Very hot, passionate, temperatures will be high. Dangers of fire and explosions. Beware of heart attacks if you aren’t happy and your heart isn’t into your work/ marriage/ whatever it is. 

July  31 Venus enters Cancer

This is a very sentimental family oriented time. The mothering, nesting, feeding, nurturing energy is very powerful. Food is the main thing. Beautify your home, cook and eat to your stomach’s content. Being near water soothes your feelings of insecurity. Show your mother and other women and children, unconditional love. Nurture those who cannot take care of themselves. Donate food or bring meals to people. Pour out your love and your offerings of beauty to nurture everyone.

This is a high-risk energy, of people losing their tempers, so do be very watchful wherever you go. Tummy upsets are on high alert also. You can expect strange energy going on in your house. Our basement drain got clogged, plumbing and basements have to do with PLUTO’s Underworld energy.

You can also expect strange energy going on in your house. Our basement drain got clogged, plumbing and basements have to do with PLUTO’s Underworld energy. Or in your car, Cancer in the Tarot is the Chariot.

Card of the day 

King of WANDS, SAGITTARIUS 

The King of Wands is the Mature part of fire. He represent the Fire of Fire.  As the last fire sign he is the Sage. His fire and his passion are tempered by experience. He doesn’t just spontaneously erupt like an Aries would do. He isn’t egotistical like Leo. He holds his fiery power and uses it judiciously.  You should learn to do the same. Take the high road with yoru power.

I’ll be on the road tomorrow. And in Washington D.C. tomorrow evening. All writing is copyright of Tara Greene.

Lammas pagan festival,byTara Greene

The AQUARIUS Blue FULL MOON, is one day before Lammas August 1st, one of the 8 stations of the Sun in the wiccan/pagan calendar year. This is the position of the South West on the sacred wheel of life.

(RNS1-AUG. 1) Revelers of Lughnasadh, the wheat harvest festival, erected this straw-filled representation of a diety at a Scottish island in 2000. For use with RNS-PAGAN-LAMMAS transmitted Aug. 1, 2014. Creative Commons image by Bruce McAdam

The original wheat/corn man before being burned. The original Burning man

It is traditionally a time of celebration of the harvest. John Barleycorn or a corn man figure symbolizing the sacred grain and most especially a sacred loaf was baked and offered to the four directions and the earth in gratitude. 

Traditional Lammas Loaf, 

The Goddess CERES/ Demeter would be honored as the giver of abundant grains. 

Lughnasad is its other name. We are half way to the AUTUMN Equinox now. It is an Air element festival traditionally celebrated as the wake of the Sun KING, who is a star,  is dying now in the waning of his own Light. Cookie people figures and star cookies are baked in celebration.  It is time of anxious waiting, we are not yet assured of a harvest which will keep the people alive. It is a time to free oneself from FEAR.  A snake dance is created going counter clock wise, bread figures are thrown into the bonfire to symbolize the burning up of one’s fears. Then one says what one hopes to harvest. Symbols of STARS are held up. The High Priestess would say,

“MAY THE STAR OF HOPE BE WITHIN US ALWAYS.”

The coveners would eat the star cookies and celebrate. see link below for more details 

 The symbol for the sign of Aquarius in the 22 MAJOR TRUMPS of the TAROT is the STAR.

Mars in Cancer, internal battles Astrology by Tara Greene

MARS enters Cancer June 24 @6:33 am PDT/ 9:33 am EDT – August 8th. 8 8

Mars is Masculine energy, action, raw testosterone, the warrior, desire, sex, competition, rape, anger, aggression, initiator, Ruler of Aries and Scorpio. 

CANCER is the Mother, womb, Feminine,the Goddess, Mother Mary,, Demeter, Gaia, Ceres, all Mother Goddesses, water, wells, nurturing, nourishment, emotions, security, home, children  receptivity, Ruled by the Moon.

Mars in Cancer symbolizes the Warrior returns Home to the Goddess.

This is a time of Masculine cleansing and purification, where the warrior takes off his armor and surrenders into the unconditionally loving arms of the Mother Goddess Archetype of his own Anima, his own  soul or to a woman. The son comes home to the Mother, to his roots, his female ancestors, to be nurtured, nourished and held safe after being at War in the world and within himself for the last five thousand years. Men in general are always suffering from PTSD whether they have actually been in war or not. The workforce is a very competitive battlefield for men and women. 

For women Mars in Cancer helps them to raise their Feminine energies, be strong women. They can work with their own inner Animus, their inner warrior, who acts in the world on the behalf of feminine desires. Most women are very masculine these days, they don’t know about being strong and Feminine at the same time especially if they have never had children.

Mars in Cancer is also  repressed anger and rage. We are seeing this well up and spill over in the U.S. these days. 

Mars is weak in Cancer, there can be fear to move, to act. The U.S. and Canada and many other countries are Cancer Sun. the action will be sluggish. Positively Peace treaty time hopefully? Use this time to reflect and be receptive and wait..like a pregnant woman..This is not be the best time to make big moves. 

The Goddess energies are returning and the movement of men who embrace and serve the Goddess is getting stronger every day. Words from Jeff Brown from Apologies to the Divine Feminine from a warrior in transition from 2010 – see link for full article below:

 “I am grateful for Grandmother, for no one saw my tenderness more clearly. I am grateful for Mother, for choosing to bring me into being and for nourishing my body until I could find my feet. I am grateful for Mother Earth, for grounding my expansion and enlivening my spirit. I am grateful for the Divine Mother, the real Mother of us all. I now feel her divine presence, so close. Fiercely compassionate, she was always right here, breathing life into me, holding me safe. I sit in her lap as she breathes me.”

The warriors need to lay down their arms and to surrender, like the

Hanged Man in the Tarot, TRUMP # 12  your Card of the DAY

Napoleon Brousseau
Hanged Man 2012 oil painting  

Men need to become Knights in shining arm, defending and integrating Feminine values and this is what Mars in Cancer will teach them to do. Men need to defend the women, protect them, the children and FEMININE rights, and have freedom to express their own feelings fully. Yes big boys Do cry.  “I fight for beauty”- Daario Naharis from Game of Thrones.

 Mars in Cancer governs the stomach, so much desire to stuff those feelings. The battle of the bulge will be on.  Tummies will be ultra sensitive to any emotional and food upsets. Attract someone by cooking for them. The desire to reunite with family is also strong and favoured.

Mars in CANCER –

Cancer governs the 4th house traditionally and that house/sign holds the key to your actual physical birth and pre-birth, to your relationship with your Mom, your early childhood, your roots, foundation, the Unconscious, your womb experiences. Any unconscious, shadow material will be activated by Mars in Cancer making you angry and lash out spontaneously. Perhaps it was your mother who was the aggressive, angry, repressed anger, dangerous one. This would be a great time to do some deep therapy work as Mars rules SCORPIO sign of psychotherapy. With Saturn at those fated last degrees of Scorpio, Mars adds ease and emphasis to accessing your ancient buried emotional treasure trove lying in your knotted up guts.

For many the idea of going home is scary as it was/is a battle zone. But this is the optimum time to heal those wounds. This may be a tumultuous time as Mars aggravates family feuds. Mars in Cancer is literally fire in water, so with the droughts in California and elsewhere, expect to see battles over water rights, and the oceans, also wetter weather.

MEANING

Surrender your ego posturing, your defenses, your need to fight and be right. Let go and allow. Honor your Feminine side, your intuition and feelings which are always clear. Positive warrior battles will take the form of  being soldiers of Love, supporting women and children, cook-offs, eating contests. 

Where is the Sign of CANCER in your natal chart? That is where the action is. Remember we are all family.  A lot of water therapy is good, releasing in hot baths with epsom salts. Drink lots of water. Sex in water is also favored. Have a water birth.

I will write Mars aspects later.

The crying game – Boy George 

We Are Family Sister Sledge 1979 

Home is where the heart is.Venus in CANCER, Love Astrology forecast

Venus enters Cancer June 2 – June 27

The Goddess of LOVE comes Home to the water source of  CANCER, the ocean, the origins of life, the protective womb, from whence Venus and we all are born. The way to anyone’s heart with Venus in Cancer is literally through their stomach’s, feed ’em fabulous nourishing food. Eat, eat like a stereotypical  Jewish Mother.   Cancer is FOOD and Venus will highlight our need to protect our food from destructive GMO’s and MONSANTO destroying the food supply.

With all the horrendous damage from tornadoes, HOME’s needs to be more secure.

Love needs emotional security now like never before. Cuddly,  meet the family, taking care of each other, these are all Cancerian themes. Let your family and especially your mom know how much you love them.

Venus in CANCER wants to take care of you but also needs to learn to be taken care of. Cancer’s homes are their castles, like the Crab symbol. They need safe harbour.  How at home do you feel in your own skin?  Your home/ CANCER  is you. How safe, beautiful, artful is your home? How peaceful is it? Decorate your home, buy art and beautiful objects which Venus loves. 

Cancer’s show their feelings, they can’t help it. Vulnerability is a great strength. Mercury is in Cancer as well so talk about and share them. Watch old movies, tearjerkers and get out the hankies. Have a large family reunion. Cook a ton of food and reminisce.   Family is not just blood. It is your friends who can be more like a family to you. Let them know how much they mean to you.

If you are thinking about getting pregnant Venus in Cancer is favourable but especially when Jupiter enters Cancer on June 25-27 while Venus is still there.

 Cancer is the 4th Sign and house naturally. Where is the sign of Cancer in your chart? Check for which house Venus is transiting. That’s where to receive the love and give it. The 4th house/Cancer is your Mother, your childhood,your unconscious memories. Revisit your childhood. Love that Inner Child. Play with her/him.

ALL WATER and Earth signs benefit the most. Challenges to Cardinal signs

Yes, all the planets moving into CANCER  means a high risk of flooding.

We are moving from a heady AIRY Masculine energy to a very deep, heart felt  Feminine feeling focus. Ah the tides of the cosmos drawing us in and changing our elemental focus. 

MAKE THESE DATES July 17 and July 30! They are Va va voom!

GRAND WATER TRINE JULY 17 planets @ 120 degrees= HARMONY

PLANETS in the SWIM at HIGH TIDES – are JUPITER  @ 7+ degrees Cancer, conjunct MARS  @ 11 +

Trine to SATURN @  5 degrees SCORPIO  in Trine to NEPTUNE @  4 degrees Retrograde.

IF YOU HAVE planets  @  3-9 degrees of a water sign you will definitely benefit for July 17  and should do water rituals. Also if you have any angles in your natal chart at these degrees- that works too.

BIG ACTION with Jupiter and Mars, great time to move, travel, especially by water, start a new job or go back to school, build new dreams- SATURN and NEPTUNE.  WOMEN will be the movers and shakers. Intuition will get very strong and your dreams too.

JULY 30 VERY RARE GRAND SEXTILE

a six pointed star  with MERKABA  formation

A GRAND SEXTILE may sound like a fancy orgy of sorts 

and in a way it is. SEXTILES are easy, nice, tickles under the chin.  Maybe we should call them sextickles?

It’s an  8 planets  cocktail of water and earth= MUD in your eye, clay- a creative substance. Aren’t we all made out of clay?

the MOON  in Taurus- at the 14 degree  conjunct the SOUTH NODE -{not pictured} at 12 degrees TAURUS ,  sextile to JUPITER  at 7+ degrees Cancer,conjunct MARS at 11 +of CANCER,sextile to

That’s a whole  lotta sextiles. 

Moon Venus Mars Jupiter and Saturn are personal planets. Neptune and Pluto are transpersonal.

EARTHY PEOPLE- TAURUS VIRGO CAPRICORN

IF YOU HAVE PLANETS at 7-14 degrees of EARTH SIGNS- but especially 9 degrees YOU get the BIG BUCKS!

THE GOOD, THE GOOD & the challenges-

Its very impactful for countries  too CANADA who’s Natal Sun on July 1st is 9 degree Cancer is exactly hit and the U.S. Sun too

ALTHOUGH it has benefits we can’t forget that this is also an incendiary time with URANUS exactly square to the U.S. Sun and PLUTO still duking it out with MARS in Cancer also involved in a T-Square.. There will be a lot of CIVIL unrest  as the Moon symbolizes women- in earthy Taurus from Women,with VENUS in Virgo, the economy and corporate structures , Pluto in Capricorn, ongoing.

The long T -Squares of Uranus and Pluto COULD FLAIR OUT OF CONTROL AS PEOPLE’S EMOTIONS WILL BE RUNNING VERY HIGH TIDE.

PIRATES  may be a necessity. As the people wont want to get stuck for it anymore.

I will design rituals for these. If you would like to take part in an online ceremony and buy my MP3’s coming soon

Venus in Cancer, mermaids

The Love Goddess has spent the past 4 months in GEMINI, 4 times longer than her average monthly dalliance. Because of her spectacular transit across the Sun in early June, we have all had major lessons in duality, projection, endless talks about the relationships, role-playing, escaping, changing our minds, friends coming and going.

VENUS IN CANCER- love on the half shell

Brings love Home, It’s the archetypal Botticelli image of Venus rising from the sea.

the way to his/her heart is through the stomach

bring someone home that Mom would approve of

skinny dipping times

The major need for VENUS in Cancer is emotional security, like HOMELAND security love,

a great time to buy a cozy pad to call home, or make your nest as secure as you can..

With Venus in Cancer the energy will be highly emotional, sensitive,sentimental,

weepy at the movies, butterflies in your stomach.

The perfect times to host/ess great home dinner parties, BBQ’s, feed and nurture your friends and family,

stay by water, swim, skinny dip, drink lots of H2O

and oh yes most of all make sure your emotional needs are being met.

Listen to your stomach/gut. The body never lies.
