Cancer Sun //Capricorn Full Moon exact at 7:20pm PDT July 1st, 2015
Stephanie Gailing of Planetary Apothecary says:
"What’s...highlighted during this Full Moon is the importance of
maintaining a balanced sense of perspective. Cancer inspires us to both
feel as well as value our feelings. It has flowing, soft, and undulating
energy. Capricorn, on the other hand, is not focused on feelings but
rather on diligent and responsible approaches to accomplishing tangible
outcomes. The question becomes how the nurturer (Cancer) and the
achiever (Capricorn) can co-exist."

What interests me in Stephanie's words is this balance between self-care, and what we need to get done. These things are more often than not contractions. It is hard to make the time with our ever-swiftyly-moving lives for us; for a breathe, for meditation or mindfulness practice, for self-reflection, or self-care.
I've recently shifted my work-load, I don't know how I was doing it, working three jobs, attempting to create within my Art, renovate a home, all while living with my partner in my childhood home, but I did it. The easiest thing to drop off my list? Self-care. My work-out, my yoga, my meditation, my own massage.
How can we balance how we nurture our bodies and minds? How do we attend to our feelings? All the while walking forward on our distracting paths ahead?
