1st Quarter Energy: Moon squares the Sun.
This is the week where the Moon and Sun help you to move through old stuck patterns and emotional blocks to liberate your creative Shakti energy. The Moon (subconscious awareness through emotions) squares the Sun (self-awareness through perception). This “blocking” energy creates a build-up of Universal Qi that forms enough tension to breakthrough an old paradigm of lower vibrational living.
This will be a deeply felt lunar week. Watch for self-pity. This challenge is about leaving that built up safe haven created by your past grief. The Universe is giving you the Qi to embody the courage to reach out and connect with the world again. Cancer Moon is your most watery feelings, and it may take time and tenacity to push through sorrow. As Cancerian themes show up, look to clear family dysfunction from your birth family or within your lineage. Release those pictures of the ideal family and open your heart to self-nurturing and take care of yourself moving forward this week.
