Grim explains the correlation via the heightened state of tenderness, though he affirms this to be a way of the body to tend to itself, lightening, loosening and purging sentiments that we’ve been overlooking but have been sitting deep within us regardless – so that we’re more in sync with the lighter and brighter Leo season coming ahead. Long story short – the new moon in Cancer is bringing up buried feelings and the Mercury retrograde in the sign is making us examine them in real time. Grim lists family history, mother wounds, relationship wild cards and a shuffle in priority lists as the primary themes under surprise-inspection. He encourages an honest weighing of emotions though warns signs not to idealise the past. Major placements near 21 degrees of the cardinal signs – namely Cancer, Aries, Libra and Capricorn will be most impacted; though the energies are likely to prove potent for signs across the spectrum. Astrologer Amy Demure reads the stars for them. As always, don’t forget to check for your Sun, Moon, Rising and Venus placements.
