Today it’s about Sun in Cancer…😊

It's family time and to relax…get lazy…After a lot of fun time in Gemini …..Sun is getting home to have some relaxing time.

Sun moves into the Cancer sign that is most associated with the home, our families, and feelings….

Instead of being extrovert and outward as always…Sun is more internal and homely…brightens your heart…& home…😊

The energies are different… and like the moon, the lord of Cancer, feelings are always shifting and changing…there is a lack of steadiness.

It is a comforting time but also an emotionally charged one… Cancer is movable, even, and water sign which indicates you need to be caring, sentimental, emotional, and deeply nurturing in approach…

Numerologically, Sun represents number one…also significator of 1st house…self…

Giving due Respect to our own feelings and practicing self-care becomes most important while Sun is in Cancer…

See …Sun is the father of the entire Solar System. Sun is our soul…our deepest and truest nature…

When in transit Sun goes to any sign, it expects you to behave in that manner…

That way you will be going with the flow…with the energies of the universe and which will turn out be easy for you….at least keeping them in mind… what will work…will also help you go forward…

Immediately after entering Cancer…Sun will have an aspect of Pluto which will be transformative…and that’s on 18th July-Sunday….

Also…Sun will be in Punarvasu Nak till 20th and lord Jupiter is 8th to Sun ..and can change the course of energies…

Then till 3rd Aug, Sun will get into Pushy Nak with the aspect of Saturn on it. Pushya is one of the most auspicious Nakshatra and can bring gradual growth but expect some power struggle as Sun-Saturn both are contradictory to each other…one is light and the other prefers darkness…and they have exact aspect on 3rd Aug.

There can be feeling of being helpless or restricted …with least movement or growth…maintain your patience with self and others will help…. avoid any emotional burst out…

and then lastly in Ashlesha Nakshatra till 16th August where the sun will cross gandanta and enter Leo…its own sign.

There will be too much thinking, plotting to get things done considering the earlier restrictions of Saturn…there is a sense of desperation…

So…. All in all, the entire stay of Sun in cancer demands you to be patient and relaxing…. just chill…. :) Force or using power will not help much…

Other important events during this transit will be:

~ 24th July is a full moon and Mercury will join Sun.

~ New moon on 8th Aug. in Shravana and the same day mercury will enter Leo crossing gandanta…

See the uniqueness…entry with a full moon and exit with new moon…it seems it has a definite goal with this…

But before this

~ Venus will leave Cancer on the same day when Sun will enter Cancer on 16th July…. followed by Mars leaving on 20th also crossing Gandanta….

Gandanta is a sensitive yet very strong point where the planet becomes extremely powerful to bring change with promised growth if used well…

It happens when a planet crosses a water sign and gets into a fire sign…. there is a complete change of energies and that moment …gives us a burning feeling.

Within this month, start from Venus…. Mars, Moon, Mercury, and lastly Sun will cross this point giving us that burning feeling…so this month needs extra attention and a careful approach with keeping our strength…

Gandanta is all about ending and a new beginning, which was also the theme of July month…😊

Cancer represents our home… Our comfort zone… Ve/mar will leave Cancer and the king — Sun will enter…there will be kind of silence at home….

This could be the preparation time. Resting time for a big task to take in hand…. when Sun will transit Leo…he will be all expressive but right now, it’s time for preserving the reserves for the time ahead…It's not the time for major actions but building foundations…planning about it…

Keep in mind the Key dates when you can expect some shifting energies…

18th to 20th — shifting energies

Time around 3rd Aug with + or — 3 days when Saturn/Sun will have exact aspect &

8th Aug when Mercury will cross gandanta alone with a new moon

Lastly on 16th Aug when Sun will cross Gandanta…

So far whatever I talked about will impact everyone in some of the other ways…. now let’s see in short how this transit will be for each sign.

The Cancer Sign and its placement …their significations in your birth chart are capable to give results while Sun is in Cancer….

My assessment will be ascendant based …you can relate it well with your moon or Sun sign as well….

I’ll be talking about the few areas of your life that you will be working on the most… during this transit and these areas will demand your proper handling with care and attention.

Aries — You need to be soft and caring than usual… Balancing your family & work is imp as your sense of security and peace of mind is at home with family…There can be some travel, shift or your house need some renovation or decoration…

Taurus — Expect a lot of communication. Keep talking and Your strength will increase … It's time to express your ideas…speak your mind to have success… Learning new things, all mental activities…Writing, publishing, and communicating your thoughts and ideas.

Gemini — You will plan a lot on managing your money. Apart from your finances, your values,& skills are your treasure…trust yourself and your capacity…your diet, changing your food habits and some inner transformation on your values, will restore your confidence.

Cancer — Your true self will shine…the focus is on self, your personality, health, and Sun in Cancer will give you decent health if there are no mood swings. You will have good relations with the authorities and will be benefited from them.

Leo — Time to realize that it’s time for reflection …. being with your own self and alone …will give peace. This realization will bring some solutions to your problems. Being with nature will help you…

Sagittarius — Time to let go of your strong mental blocks if any…change begets change so … it's the best time for you to transform at an emotional level and have peace of mind. Do watch on the health of everyone around…. there can be some Sudden change. Be mindful of your action and handle everything with care and patience.

Capricorn — your world is changingthe way people see you…perceive you…keep working hard on others, your relations and partnershipsthere will be a lot of demands from others…. Do consider your own needs and your health in all this.

Aquarius — time for self-improvement. Observe closely your health…Work zone and your daily routine is taking all your thoughts. Avoid conflicts in general…

Pisces — Some good surprises are in store for you…have some pleasant time for yourself as you will receive some rewards for your past deeds, creativity, and hard work. you will have some status and fame.

That’s all for all 12 signs…😊

See… where ever Sun goes…you shine the brightest and you have one month time for that area…give your best and Sun will help you recover all your weakness and give you confidence…

Be careful of any fights or conflicts out of emotions or ego as Sun is where our ego is the most. Whichever sign is occupied by the Sun is where our ego is completely hindering us! We become blind and cannot see clearly…in ego

So, it is very important to be down to earth and gentle…using the fire of the Sun to your advantage.

The North direction of the house is brightening by Sun…pay attention to this direction and remove any clutter or if any repairing is needed then take care of it.

Sun in Cancer can make your immune system weak and trigger problems related to bones, eyes, chest, or heart…

Sun in Cancer encourages to relax… have a sense of safety and security for self…

Here are some tips to help you cross this transit:

~ Decor your home

~ Give respect to the femineity around you in any form…. give a motherly care to your task…work and projects in hand…

~ be kind and caring towards everything around you…let your emotions flow in the right proportion…and don’t confuse your feelings with facts …make your home and family the focus….

~ There can be a lot of fluctuation in emotions and mood swings and you can easily avoid this by exercising or doing yoga and spending time with nature…

~ Lastly…Give security, protection, and comfort to each other…that’s the message of this Sun in Cancer

The king will soon leave this comfort and get on his throne…
