Transit Talk: Mercury in Cancer - Checking In

Transit: Jul 5th - Jul 19

Mercury moves into Cancer today after having traveled through Gemini, during which a lot of information was thrown at us. In the aftermath of this flood of input we now get time to check in with ourselves emotionally, it is time to digest.

Listen to themes and thought patterns that pop up in your mind. Try not to control your stream of consciousness but pay attention to what naturally comes up. Don’t push yourself to be emotionally expressive, you may need some time to figure out where you stand before you can properly express what you are thinking.

Your best thoughts and ideas right now may just be shower thoughts but shower thoughts can be difficult to share with others. Too quickly we can feel misunderstood and we retreat instead of giving the thought or idea room to grow and evolve.

During Mercury in Cancer, it is important to read the room before judging it. We are all trying to make it through and one harsh word can start a crab fight.

Take time to honor your feelings via journaling or any artistic expression, you might be surprised at what you find between the lines after releasing what you have been keeping locked up inside.
