" the first part of this week is extra heavy. it can be harder to remain positive, as we become overly aware of the challenges we have to overcome. responsibilities can feel more like burdens, especially if you've already been feeling burned out. sun in cancer is square saturn in aries for the first time. usually, cancer season is all about tending to your emotional foundation, taking care of your home + family, and finding comfort. saturn is making that harder right now. it's like a demanding father figure in the back of our minds making us feel bad for not getting shit done. it can make us feel guilty for resting, when resting is actually EXACTLY what we need to be able to make moves. take care of yourself. rest if you need to. finish unfinished business that’s taking up space in your mind and making you feel like you have “so much to do.”

Slim Keith, 1950

Very true but I think I need to charge my social battery for a bit before getting into it. My cancer rising is calling to retreat. I hope so too, not so easy as an outsider but I believe it will come. I appreciate your message a lot, thank you X
