Why do we want to tear it all down today? Or do we? What seemed spontaneous suddenly cut to the heart of what we honor and care about, what we’re dedicated to, and that stirred the pot of all things ignored, denied, or enraging, and so we may respond in one of a variety of ways: seeking allies, in order to feel ‘right’ or to go up against the larger social order, or even seeking a partner or ‘complementary opposite’-kind of support; we may deny facts or realities, in an attempt to bring back a treasured past, or to gain from what’s already known (at least to you); and some may allow the mind access to instinct and that store of what we ‘know but don’t know’, thereby upping the success quotient drastically. Whatever occurs draws our attention to the distribution of power and to our role(s) within this structure. In some way we’re asked/ required/ given the chance to adjust to what we see–and we do a lot better if we take a calm and measured, conscious approach, rather than going on automatic and stepping in it.

Happy Birthday, you. ‘Cakes’ 1963 By Pplachigo Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported
For those born with the Sun at 02 Cancer. Check your natal chart for the correct Sun degree (you may want to read both the degree number and the one that follows, if you have minutes on your Sun position–together these offer a more complete picture of your year ahead). Dear Cancer, This coming solar year, through to your next birthday, can be summed up for you like this: expressing your highest values in their most original and uniquely personal terms will bring important healing. You have the chance to successfully deal with or otherwise clear out all those matters that may have been ignored or denied, until now, and out of these ashes will come some of your most important choices, and most impactful ways of showing who you are at a Soul level. Good for you, as this opens the way to some tricky or difficult, but ultimately positive, manifestations of your dream. Good luck!
