On Monday July 17th we are graced with a double water sky - the sun and moon are both in nurturing Cancer.
Cancer wants us to nurture the part of our chart that she is transiting through, and the new moon offers us the gift of planting seeds for the next 6 months when we have the Full Moon in Cancer .
