Cancer folk are always trying to take care of everyone. ☺Nurturing is in their nature, in fact it’s so inherent in these guys and gals that if they don’t have a family close by they will create one from the folks they spend time with.
Emotional Cancer folk usually operate on ‘gut feelings’ and while they enjoy the company of others around them, spending some time alone in private can do wonders for the energy levels. Like the phases of the moon that rule Cancer, there are times to be out in front and there are times to take a back seat to rejuvenate.
The thing to watch for with being a Cancerian is not to get caught up in the “needy market”… Depending on others to make one feel “better” is not the best way to explore the finer points of one’s nature. We all love to have someone around us who wants to take care of us, but most of us don’t want to be “mothered” all of the time. :)
Most “crabs” or those with a “crab” influence are great in the kitchen, as feeding others is another way to say “I love you”. For these folk whipping something up for supper is hardly ever a problem (unless one is feeling a little “crabby”).
Cancer rules the breasts and stomach. Issue’s with the tummy are likely when under stress, during a full moon or when ignoring healthy eating habits.
Sensitive by nature Cancer folk, may at times, imagine slights from others and become defensive or withdrawn (as a crab into its shell) in an effort to block any hurt. This is something that should be watched for especially during emotionally vulnerable times, actions taken or words spoken during this time may cause more upset than intended or needed.

Summer Solstice: June 20 2021
The 1st day of summer for 2021 and the longest day of the year (shortest night for our hemisphere). A positive time where being outside is the norm along with spending time with loved ones and friends. Summer is a celebration of all things light :)
As we welcome summer 2021 we give thanks to Mother Earth for the wonders she bestows on us all
Notes ***
June 20 is Father’s Day… Happy Dad day :)
NOTE 2:SGC Admin: We are late with this post, and we apologize, life got in the way ;) We hope everyone had a delightful Summer Solstice and happy Father’s day gatherings…
Void-of-Course: June 17 @ 11:54 pm (ET) @ 8:54 pm (PT) to moon into Libra on the 18th. Virgo Moon v/c is not one of the 4 “good signs”
Opportunity Period: None
What does it all mean?
Virgo is all about the details, so be prepared to see to them or at least have someone else see to them for you, you will feel better :)
Try not to worry about things you have no control over, especially things that might not ever happen… Because Virgo “see’s” all the details others miss, it’s hard for her not to worry…
It’s good to keep busy during a Virgo moon, make lists, tidy, organize, plan, find solutions to problems… a lot can get done now
Virgo can be more critical than the rest of the zodiac, but only because she needs things to be “correct” or “perfect”. Try to give yourself and other’s, a break over the next couple of days. If you are an employer, be prepared that tasks may not get completed exactly they way you had expected.
This moon sign will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts. And those who have a strong Pisces placement in their charts..
Moon in Virgo
Sun in Virgo
Ascendant in Virgo
Mid-heaven in Virgo
Moon in 6th
Any aspects to the Moon or Mercury. (Mercury in Gemini is retrograde until June 22)
In astrology, the moon is connected to our emotions and reactions… how we are feeling on a given day may well be influenced by the sign that is visiting the moon… Each sign stays with the moon for up to 2.5 days…. :)
The Moon Void-of-Course:
There are times throughout the month when the moon isn’t fully immersed in any sign… this is when we say the moon is Void off Course… and when this occurs, we may feel “foggy” and “unfocused” … We may not be sure how we are truly feeling about a situation or a person…. Therefore it is not recommended that we make long-term commitments or important decision’s while the moon is Void off Course…. However there are 4 signs in the zodiac which may prove positive during the Void-off-Course moon…
Good for Void-Of-Course Moon:
These v/c signs may prove to be quite productive times.
Cancer
Taurus
Sagittarius
Pisces…
Opportunity Periods
There are other periods throughout the month that are known as opportunity periods, when it can prove to be a positive time for most people, however if you have challenging aspects happening within your own chart you may not be able to make use of opportunity periods.

Void-of-Course: June 10th @ 1:38 pm (ET) @ 10:38 am (PT) to moon into Cancer early morning on the 11th
Opportunity Period: None
NOTES: NEW MOON/SOLAR ECLIPSE: June 10th @ 6:53 am (ET) @ 3:53 am (PT). In the sign of Gemini. Set your intensions for the month ahead… take care to be specific.. the Eclipse may make the new moon energy more “magical” so be sure what it is that you “ask” for.
The Solar Eclipse can sometimes indicate stressors that contribute to or “demand” change/adjustment, which may present some difficult challenges. A concentrated effort at compromise is recommended.
Changes may be afoot in the communications area, neighbours and siblings may be on the agenda.
This New Moon/Solar Eclipse will affect us all but will affect the following signs most: Gemini: Virgo: Sagittarius: Pisces.
Check your chart to see what house/life area the Solar Eclipse/New Moon occurs, it will be in this area that you will be most affected.
NOTES 2: Mercury is currently in retrograde motion in the sign of Gemini.
What does it all mean?
Gemini is an air sign and needs lots of stimuli. She is ruled by Mercury.
The house connected to Gemini is the 3rd house of: day-to-day travel/affairs and siblings… we could find ourselves busy with multiple things going on, even if they are just in our own minds… ;) Dealings with family, especially siblings, are likely.
We may find we are trying to do multiple things at once, which may not go exactly as planned. If you do find you have tons of ideas spinning around in your head, take pen to paper and jot them down… it will ease the “inside chatter” and you may find some of them useful later on.
Could be lots of chit chatting going on, and some of us may have to make a concerted effort to listen instead of chat.
Caution is advised when doing up letters, emails and relaying messages, as much as we may think we have it right, it’s better to check one more time
It’s a good time to get those lists and notes made up… we can feel good about putting pen to paper now.
Boredom may be at our door step and we may feel more restless than usual.
The next few days may be positive for: buying a vehicle, entertaining guests, hair cut (for less growth), join a club, send mail, and mow the lawn to retard growth.
This moon sign will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts.
Sun in Gemini
Moon in Gemini
Mercury in Gemini
Ascendant in Gemini
Midheaven in Gemini
Any aspects to the Sun, Moon, Mercury or Jupiter
Those who have a strong Sagittarius influence in their chart

Void-of-Course: June 8 @ 11:07 am (ET) @ 8:07 am (ET) to moon into Gemini in the afternoon. Moon in Taurus v/c is one of the 4 “good signs”.
Opportunity Period: None
What does it all mean?
Taurus needs emotional and material security, so we may find we are more interested in our financial affairs.
This may prove to be a good time to make investments for the future or to begin plans for the next financially responsible phase.
Taurus has lots of patience, indicating this could be a good time to deal with people/projects/situations that take up more time than is liked.
Things that give us pleasure, such as comfort foods, wine, relaxing, good music and giving/receiving “loving’s” are all things we may enjoy right now
Some of us may be feeling more frugal than usual, preferring to save our funds instead of spend them.
Take your time when the moon is in this sign, there is no need to hurry, and you probably won’t get very far if you do… so sit back and enjoy the ride… :)
Keep your temper under check if you can, Taurus is very, very patient and it takes a lot to make her angry, but watch out once she has had enough, she will certainly let you know..
This moon sign will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts. Those with strong Scorpio placements in their charts will also be effected.
Moon in Taurus,
Sun in Taurus,
Venus in Taurus
Sun in Libra
Moon in Libra
Venus in Taurus
Any aspects to the Moon, Venus.
Ascendant or Mid-heaven in Taurus
Notes: Mercury is retrograde in the sign of he rules, Gemini until June 22/July 1 2021

Void-off-Course: June 5 @ 6:47 pm (ET) @ 3:47 pm (PT) to moon into Taurus late on the 5th (PT) Early morning on the 6th (ET): Moon v/c in Aries is not one of the 4 “good signs” Make sure you get all the facts before making any commitments..
Opportunity Period: None
What does it all mean?
Aries is action, he is the most masculine of the Zodiac signs as he is ruled by the planet Mars
We should have slightly more get up and go when the moon is in Aries
We are happy to defend our loved ones
We are apt to speak up more, even those of us who consider themselves to be “timid” can find the voice they need right now.
May be a good time to get your message across or to ask for what you need
Be careful when driving especially when upset or angry
We may be more susceptible to head injuries or head aches
We could be eager to start projects now, and with the New Moon happening early this morning, it’s a great time to start something that has an artistic influence, or is connected to spiritual subjects.
Be careful about while engaging in physical activities, we may feel stronger or more “heroic” at the moment but our bodies might not be in the same “zone” :)
We may be more decisive than usual, as always use caution …
Adults with a strong Mars or Aries influence may be acting more like children than adults.
Some of us could be more insensitive or appear more selfish to others.
If you aren’t looking to enlarge your family right now, take care, Aries has a lot of sexual energy to utilize… ;)
The Moon in Aries will have a slight effect on all of us, but it will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts: Along with those who have a strong Libra placement in their charts
Moon in Aries:
Sun in Aries:
Mars in Aries:
Moon in Libra
Sun in Libra
Aspects to the Moon or Mars:
Ascendant or Mid-heaven in Aries
Note: Mercury,the planet of communication, technology and transportation is currently retrograde in the sign of Gemini.
Gemini is one of the dual signs… capable of multi-tasking, inquisitive and communicative.
Mercury rules Gemini, making this placement fairly strong.
Mercury retrograde isn’t a favorable time to attend to new projects, or to sign contracts, legal documents etc… If the situation is an ongoing one, there is less likely to be challenges when it comes to legal/important or long term dealings. Read everything, ask questions, don’t rush in…
Complications with transportation (cars, buses, trains, planes etc) and technology is more likely during a retrograde motion.
This is a good time to re-do just about anything, (including contracts, just be aware of everything involved)… If you are a writer, this could be an opportune time for you to edit your work. Any word that has “re” in front of it are good things to stick to during retrograde motion.
Mercury remains in retrograde motion until June 22, and will remain in “storm” until July 1st.
Retrogrades can have a mostly subtle affect on us all. During this retrograde motion, those with strong Mercury, (Gemini, Virgo) chart influences may feel the affects most.
