Astrological Energies for Summer

FULL CIRCLE

Wisdom Body Notes for July 21- 29 by Samantha Cameron                                                                                         

Kahlil Gibran wrote, “Work is love made visible” which might be a perfect mantra for the force of July’s Full Moon of the 21st.  As all Full Moons reveal, uncover, and open the emotional body to explore in particular ways, this ‘anarectic’ -29 degree Capricorn-Beacon explores the territory of family, of mother/father, of deeper understanding and use of power, empathy, intuition, boundaries, agency and construction.  The Moon is ruled by the karmic ‘Father of Time,’ Saturn.  The Sun, in Cancer, is ruled by the Moon. 

These oppositional energies of Capricorn/ Cancer which have fueled and filled the past 28 days, now bring to conscious awareness insights into questions of responsibility, maturity, resilience, and integrity~Capricorn, with Cancer’s nurturing, emotional, tough and tender touch.  This mother/father polarity has stirred pots and nibbled at brains since June 21, when the Full Moon in Capricorn, opened in its first degree. Since then, we have journey and explored the Cancer/Capricorn cosmic forces from Full Moon to Full Moon, and from the first degree of Capricorn to the last.  This consecutive lunation in the same signs is an extremely rare occurrence!  As such, demands attention, and ‘love made visible‘ through the work of raising awareness around issues of family, tribe, kinship.  The first and last degrees of any sign bring in a low-lying sense of urgency, to discover and eagerly uncover, to open or complete as much as possible during their 28 days of rulership. 

As we stand poised at the end of the end of this exceptional energetic ‘offering,’ consider asking yourself ‘shadow questions’ cosmically raining down:  What have I learned from growing up in my crazy family?  What are my gifts grown from childhood sorrow and anger?  What muscles have strengthened from choosing my parents?  Have I learned to parent myself in deeply personal and more compassionate ways? How do I balance my inner/Cancer and outer lives/Capricorn?  What old wound of kinship do I still struggle with?  How can I heal what yet tethers me an unconscious prisoner to the past? Who do I trust to hold me now? 

 Take yourself out under the rising Moon and howl.  Howl with your tribe, and trusted ones.  If they are not there in person, call in their spirits, feel the arms of chosen kin around you.  Call down the heavens at this profoundly emotional threshold.  There is an old English proverb saying, “Everyone must row with the oars she or he has.” This is particularly true now, for not only does the anarectic closing degree of the Moon push out fervent, fiery emotion, but the Moon perches in Pluto’s lap, by one degree, as she faces the emotional ego and identity of the Cancer Sun. Grab your oars and run out under the moon. If you don’t feel a howl rising within, check again. What sea calls you? What emotional storms are you willing to risk?  With Pluto involved, unconscious fears that hold us from our transformational process rise within to be delt with, one way or another. We are learning to lean into it and use our oars with the heart’s power. 

As Pluto, mythic lord of the underworld, slowly enters Aquarius for the coming 20 years, we must take the lessons learned from its equally long journey through Capricorn.  If we have not mastered these, then we will not be able to survive the upheaval of the incoming Aquarian Age.  Here, we will define our ideas of humanity, kinship, society.  Have we learned to be accountable, and powerful over Self, with a strong sense of boundaries?  Have we followed along, or grown into leadership? Do we blame, or take responsibility? Do we know when to quit?  Are the ‘shoulds’ louder than the ‘coulds’? With Pluto opening into the electric Kool-Aid genius of Aquarius, not only do we need to deepen our humanity, but our intuition in order to know ‘truth.’  The easy deception and lies that technology offers, along with its magnificence of science, and tribal connectivity, pushes our nose for the scent of truth more insistently than ever.  The intuitive gut of the Wisdom Body is our most trustworthy sextant.  Set your sights by your stars, not AI. 

The other provocative celestial energy shift directly under this Full Moon, adding weight to the need of healing, and developing higher mind, is the dwarf planet, Eris, turning retrograde.  As the Greek Goddess of Strife, “Eris signifies the warrior aspect of the feminine, which impels change by exposing what is untrue, unjust, and untenable.”  Astrologer, Stephanie Austin.  Eris turning inward at 25 degrees of Aires, signature of the warrior, ruled by Mars, remains retrograde until January 11, 2025, offering long months to review and understand needs of being a warrior, be it spiritual, intellectual, and/or creative.  This inner turning, like all planetary retrogrades, asks we heal and prepare so that we transcend into capable warriors for Self AND others. 

As all retrogrades are times of slow-down and inner, psychological change, they help prevail from heart not anger, from joy not depression, and know you have a hot wave of planetary ass-backwardry for upcoming months. On July 26, Chiron, the wounded healer, turns inward at 23 degrees of Aires, asking for even further revision and healing of old trauma that holds us back from our true expression.  Chiron remains retrograde until December 29. During this time, examine core wounds, and old family trauma that can guide you onward and upward. Plus, three of the big outer planets, Saturn, Neptune and Pluto accompany Eris and Chiron in the world’s pulling in. This is not a time to listen to ‘crazy in the world,’ rather grow your intuitive ears, listen to your wisdom body, reclaim lost parts of self, surrender the pain, honor the fear, and remember what I quoted Helen Keller saying last month, “Everything has its wonders.  Even darkness and silence.”  Amen, Sister.
