The Sun and Venus in Cancer

“We dull our lives by the way we conceive them. We have stopped imagining them with any romance, any fictional flair. We must dare to envision biography in terms of very large ideas such as beauty, mystery and myth.” James Hillman
Today marks the Summer Solstice – when the Sun enters Cancer. Cancer is the sign of mothering, of nurturing and of protection.  Over the next few weeks take some time to nurture your desires for a more soulful, expansive life. It bodes well to commit to nurturing and protecting your dreams as well.
One of the Sabian symbols for the Sun’e entrance into Cancer is,”A man on a magic carpet observes vast vistas below.”
It is also good time to appreciate and be grateful for the many gifts that come to us from the Sun’s light and warmth and from Mother Earth. And to envision a healthy future for our small planet.
“Without our dreams we would not be able to step outside ourselves and transform our limitations.” Diane Mariechild
