On June 24, 2017, at 2:30am, GMT, there is a
New Moon in the emotional, protective and caring sign of Cancer. Of course,
similarly to any New Moon, this one too urges us to make a new beginning in
that area of one’s horoscope where it happens to take place. Due to the sign,
this new beginning is related to emotional, family and national issues so that
one may start to understand where they actually belong or don’t belong.
In fact, with Mercury and Mars being in the
same sign in a stellium with the Lights and outside the boundaries of the
ecliptic, it seems that this New Moon in Cancer encompasses the need to defend
via one’s thoughts and words their family, their group of loved ones or
whatever and whomever they consider as ‘home’ no matter how extreme, strange or
eccentric that may appear to others. Additionally, the Mars-Jupiter square at
critical degrees ruled by the Moon turns into a T-Square with Pluto’s
involvement. This formation deepens the extremity of actions aimed at defending
the concepts of ‘home’ and ‘family’ so that the balance that Jupiter in Libra
seeks is achieved.
It is also interesting to note that the New
Moon takes place only seven days before and after the respective retrogradation
of Chiron and Neptune. Therefore, issues of victimization, belief and religion
come out strongly under this New Moon. And with the Lights activating the
Mercury/Chiron midpoint while Mercury activates the Mars/Chiron midpoint, it is
not difficult to imagine how under this New Moon words (Mercury) can be used as
a weapon (Mars) that wounds (Chiron). However, given that the Lights are in a
separating square with Chiron, the wound may have been caused already.
We
cannot fail to mention here the recent news of the driver who used his van
(Mercury) as a weapon (Mars) to victimize (Chiron) worshippers (Neptune)
outside a mosque in London as a form of retaliation (Jupiter in Libra) for the
terrorist actions (Pluto) that Muslims have undertook in the same city. Although, of course, these same planetary
influences can materialize in several ways, it would be a good idea to avoid overreacting
as much as possible these days, for it will be very easy for everyone to go to
extremes…
