Hi everyone!
We’re
on the shoreline of the Cancer Sun but with our focus on the lighthouse, the
beacon of light guiding us through the ancestral energies and history coming to
the surface during this time.
Whew!
That was some Solstice doorway! The Solstice is a turning point for the year, a
day/s when time ‘stands still’ and we are held in the empty space, the void of
nothingness where huge releases are possible. It’s a time which breaks through
the veil of time, when we can contact other times, places and dimensions.
Intensified
Solstice energies boosted by the Neptune station!
Neptune
stationing on the same day added to this breakthrough to other worlds. Dreams
and dreaming may have expanded our consciousness and spiritual growth.
Unresolved energies from other times, places and people presented for resolution
in our unconscious/conscious states of being.
The
Neptune ‘station’ added to the Solstice, which is when the Sun also comes to a
standstill as he shifts gear, bringing an intensification which brings release,
readjustment and a realignment.
A
big let go!
When
planets change direction, either in retrograde or direct motion, there’s an
intensification of the energies when they come to stillness. Neptune’s been
sitting on 18 degrees since 1st May but nevertheless that actual coming to a
standstill brought all the Neptune energies into a big powerful release process.
A
turning point: Setting the intent for next 6 months!
It’s
also a time when we set the intent for the next 6 months of the year until the
December Solstice. Once we set our intent, we take action. Just one small step
is enough to back up the intention and get the ball rolling. There’s not a lot
of energy available at present for big action in the physical world but
exploring options is definitely the way to go for the time being.
The Solstice:
A Turning point day in more ways than
one!
The Sabian Symbol for the Sun in the first
degree of Cancer
CANCER 1
ON A SHIP THE SAILORS LOWER AN OLD FLAG AND RAISE A NEW ONE
This Symbol implies a time of dropping the old whilst adopting the new. To 'Lower an Old Flag and Raise a New One' marks real turning points in one’s life. Something is changing, possibly dramatically, and the transformation should be taken seriously. Something that once was useful or valuable is, or has, ended and something brand new is beginning or emerging. There should be a symbolic gesture or expression of this change of allegiance. It may help to run any new ideas or plans up the "flagpole" to see if anybody salutes. You’re could change countries, professions, relationships, etc, as these are very significant times. Changing loyalties. Turning points in obligations or duties. Announcing new standards. Letting go of old allegiances and taking up new ones. Divorces, marriages, shifts.

Pisces
19 A MASTER INSTRUCTING THEIR DISCIPLE
This
shows the ability, or the need, to be a student, a “Disciple”, or a teacher, a
“Master”. At times you’ll find yourself being either one or the other. You may
be the teacher or the pupil, but remember that it is often the teacher that
learns and the pupil that teaches. This shows taking time for the transfer of
higher knowledge and wisdom. It’s also a sign to listen to your own higher
wisdom. Someone with something worthwhile to say will usually find someone eager
to listen. When you have a need to learn something, it seems that the “Master”
will always appear. To give and to receive. Listening and learning. Knowledge,
wisdom and spirituality. Knowing what questions to ask. Doing the homework.

Completing the Mercury in Cancer mental makeover!
Joining ‘the dots’, the right cables to the right plug!
We're completing the 'addled mind' syndrome of Mercury in Cancer, which has been a symptom of these past weeks.
Our mind manager has been exposed to some mixed messages arising from the unconscious, the past, the ancestors, other times, places and experiences. It's been a little like trying to find the right electricity cord for the right plug!
We've been clearing old mindsets, thoughts and karmic patterns which have been clogging the clarity of our minds. Hopefully, we'll be getting some more light into our mental bodies and nervous systems with Mercury's move to Leo.
27th June: Mercury enters Leo
10:19
am AEST
Minds uplifted by the Leo path of
heart!
Until
8th July: Mercury stations retrograde at
4 degrees 28 Leo
19th
July: Mercury retrograde enters
Cancer
1st
August: Mercury stations direct at 23
degrees 57 Cancer
Our voices are raised in unison as we
embrace the light of Leo love!
Leo
is ruled by the Sun bringing our most powerful planetary energy of light into
our mental bodies, our minds, nervous and respiratory systems and into our
communication with ourselves and others.
One
voice, one mind: That’s the call! Healing power plus!
Let the golden light pour into the brain and
right through the whole nervous system, vertebral column and into the lungs and
throat! Breathe in the golden light and let it flood every cell in the body
with golden healing light of Leo love.
A
light filled mental body: Filling our beings with passion and joy!
Our balloons carrying our hopes and dreams
are lifting off as our minds are cleared of impediments to our acceptance of our
divinity and entitlement to divine love and fulfilment of hopes and dreams.
It’s time to clear the mind of mental clutter and old ‘voices’.
Awakening
our creative minds, our heart of passion!
Leo rules creativity, romance and children and
brings us the light of the Sun into these areas of our life. Whatever your focus
for this next stretch of time, keep the focus on love and the power of love.
Make
the most of these next 3 weeks of Mercury in Leo as a foundation for
establishing the power of the light energies of joy and passion as a guiding
principle to carry through the month of July and the eclipses. Mars and Venus
will be joining Mercury in Leo the first week of July. More light!
8th
July: Mercury will retrograde at 4 degrees Leo. Please remind
yourself that retrograde periods are times of spiritual acceleration when so
much growth and expansion is happening ‘within’. That’s when we have time to
slow, integrate, regroup and reconsider. Any creative work or ideas that
surface from 27th June to 8th July may well require some development during that
retrograde period.
The
power of words! Words of love or hate? Words that uplift or put down?
Famous
words from Thumper the Rabbit say it all: Framing ‘freedom of speech’ in the
power of love!
We
seem to be in quite a state of controversial discussion in societies across the
world as more people increasingly demand ‘freedom of speech’. It has a personal
as well as societal ground base of beliefs but undoubtedly is connected to what
emerges from our unconscious mind in reactions and responses which may feel
beyond ‘loving words’.
However,
wouldn’t it be great if more of us could stay with the focus of loving thoughts
and words as Leo light works its magic on us. It’s not easy to let negative
words, comments and opinions just pass us by as the urge to speak our minds
becomes overwhelming.
It
sure feels like ‘the hex’ of the dark ages is still very much present as human
nature is still locked in the power struggle paradigm of history. But many of
us are conscious of these old patterns and working on changing the way we speak
and think.
The
voice is a power centre and words are a powerful tool for ourselves and all when
we choose to let the negatives go and then speak our truth from the heart.
Remember, Leo is the path of heart. Remember Thumper’s words!
Mercury
retrograde ahead! Already in slow motion!
From
7th July to 31st July
From
4 degrees Leo to 23 degrees Cancer
Mercury
entered shadow on 21st June so whatever we’re working with from that date will
be revisited from 31st July.

Mantra: Carry Me / Tara Lai
A tear drop falls into the ocean
This world is so full of
greed
I cannot swim in these waters
Beloved, please carry me
Welling up, waves of emotion
Guide my soul through this storm
Show me the way with your mercy
Guide me, guide me back home
Chorus Carry me across the ocean
Carry me with your love
Give me your hand
Hold me close
Give me peace, give me peace, sweet peace

That’s all folks! Hugs
all around!
We’re
coming home and claiming our place of belonging where we feel safe and secure
within ourselves. We’re
in the ‘family’ month seeking a strong foundation of home, family and the
connections with ‘soul’ families of all kinds.
As
we connect to our family of one heart, we build a sense of security based on
love, divine love, acceptance, unity and tolerance.
There
is no room in this energy for words and thoughts which are damaging to ourselves
and others. We keep our focus on that and we’ll all be okay as we travel
through this next few weeks of eclipse energies.
Love
and blessings to us all as we hitch a ride with our balloons of hopes and
dreams, firing them up with Leo passion and joy!
