HAPPY NEW MOON IN CANCER JULY 17, 2023!

Psychic Saturday At Painted Love. Saturday July 22

See Theressa Johnson, Psychic Medium for a Psychic Reading @ Painted Love, 145 Belmont Ave., Suite 2, Tonawanda, NY for Psychic Saturday. Call 481 2799 to schedule a reading. I have a few spots left.

Contact me for a reading to figure out what’s in store for you ! A psychic reading may help to clarify some of these questions, decisions or relationships in your life. Sometimes a past life will show up in your reading. A past life is the challenge of a present life with relationships, decisions and friendships. And sometimes you just may want to hear from a loved one on the other side. Let me help you with your decision making and /or contact with loved ones over on the other side. Full moon in Cancer? Whether personally or professionally, are you consciously surrounding yourself with individuals who respect your emotional boundaries? What part of your past are you ready to leave behind, in order to step into your fullest potential? This Venus retrograde amplifies the effects since it’s in Leo, the sign of love.  Relationship problems and  love relationships get the brunt of this retrograde, and we need to work on having more patience, being more understanding, and not letting stubborn pride get in the way (which it might quite a bit). When our ego is wounded during this retrograde, we may lash out in a big way, but it’s likely a personal issue that needs to be addressed linking to something predating whatever makes us lash out.

Welcome to the Cancer New Moon, and the call for you to embrace the idea of Cosmic Timing. We can get obsessed and in our heads about when we want things to happen or even how they are meant to be. In truth you and I are part of something much bigger than our minds let on. Everything that happens, and the timing it happens at is part of a larger divine plan. This is a week to play with this idea, and awaken to greater patience

The New Moon is at 24° Cancer. The New Moon is trine Neptune (at 27° Pisces), sextile Uranus (22° Taurus) and opposite Pluto in Capricorn. The New Moon in Cancer opposite Pluto will ask us to deal with themes surrounding power. The opposition is a ‘projection’ aspect. At the New Moon in Cancer, we want to take an honest look at the role WE play as individuals, or how WE instigate power struggles, and where we tend to project our own lack of power and inner authority onto others. Thankfully, the New Moon in Cancer has 2 great allies: Neptune and Uranus. A higher integration is now possible.

Cancer is one of the most misunderstood signs of the zodiac. Often portrayed as sensitive and shy – this is just a superficial look at the water cardinal sign of the zodiac. Cancer-energy people are go-getters – incredibly resourceful individuals that can put the Aries, Scorpios or the Capricorns of the zodiac to shame. Have you ever seen a Cancer competing? Cancer is a tenacious, determined and resilient sign that will surprise you with its emotional stamina and killer instinct – Cancer just goes for it, and snags the win when others are too busy ‘thinking’ or ‘strategizing’.

What does Cancer know that we – all the other signs – don’t?

Cancer just “knows” what to do – they have the natural ability to tune into their emotions and follow their instincts. Not because they’ve learned it somewhere – to them, it comes naturally. Just like the Moon shape shifts every single day, Cancer recognizes the unique opportunity that arises every.single.moment. Today’s opportunity may mean nothing tomorrow. The time is NOW! Just like the spring intuitively knows how to find its way to the ocean, Cancer seizes opportunities as they arise, and quickly snaps them – as opposed to, let’s say, Capricorn, which plans everything in advance.

Let’s say you’re in Time Square and someone pops out of nowhere looking for volunteers to win a cash prize. By the time Leo or Libra make up their mind, by the time Scorpio or Pisces decide how they feel about it, Cancer has already raised their hand and snapped the prize. Cancer has that incredible gift of recognizing the potential of every single interaction. Cancer energy is quick and potent – because it’s rooted in our instincts and emotions.

What can we learn from Cancer?

That there are incredible opportunities everywhere. That we are surrounded by endless opportunities. Every minute. Every second. Every moment we can birth something new into existence. Perhaps you can think of some times in your life where opportunity knocked at your door but you didn’t recognize it. You may have simply not seen it – or thought too much about it and then talked yourself out of it.  Or perhaps you are still waiting for that 5-star opportunity that is a perfect match to your interests and aspirations.  The problem with waiting for the “perfect opportunity” is that perfect opportunities don’t actually exist. An opportunity is by definition imperfect – it’s just an emergence of ‘something’ – something that could grow, IF recognized and cultivated.

The New Moon in Cancer will help us (re)connect with our inner Cancer – with that part of us that naturally recognizes opportunities and takes chances.

New Moon In Cancer – The Aspects

The New Moon (at 24° Cancer) is sextile Uranus in Taurus, adding an element of serendipitous chance. And it’s trine Neptune, helping us relax into the creative emergence process. The New Moon is also opposite Pluto in Capricorn. Certain circumstances might force us into taking action. But when one door closes, another opens.

New Moon In Cancer – Opportunities

How can we align ourselves with the energy of the New Moon in Cancer and seize opportunities? The easiest way to tap into Cancer’s energy is to recognize your emotions as they arise. Cancer energy at its core is really all about the art of paying attention. Mindfulness exercises are not meant to shut down our mind, but to help us recognize the natural flow of our thoughts and emotions. They come and go. The idea here is not to dismiss these thoughts and feelings – on the contrary, to acknowledge them. Every little thought, every mood, every impulse, every emotion emerges for a reason. Everything we experience is pure life energy, and comes with incredible potential. It screams for our attention. It wants to be birthed. It wants to come into existence. It wants to be actualized.

At the New Moon in Cancer, if something comes to you – an idea, an encounter, a proposal – check in with how you feel about it. It doesn’t matter if it makes sense or not. We don’t want to bring in any judgments. Just tune into your body and feelings. You’ll know you’re onto something if you feel a spark of aliveness, if the cells in your body feel energetically charged and ‘ready’ for emergence.
