Tarot Forecast: Cancer Season 2021

6/23/2021

 
You’ve probably noticed that Gemini season has been even more chaotic than usual. We’ve been feeling the effects of mischievous Mercury retrograde, not to mention more of us emerging back into our “regular” lives as pandemic conditions improve.

June 21 marked Summer Solstice, as well as the change of zodiac signs - and Mercury went direct on June 22. The shift from brainy, energetic Gemini to thoughtful, moody Cancer should bring calmer waters overall. Let’s look to Tarot to find out a little more.
The Spread & Deck
Today I’m using a three-card spread to provide us a straightforward forecast, and the Spiritsong Tarot, a nature-based deck with gentle shamanic energy. We’ll look at three aspects of the Cancer transit:

  1. EMBRACE: what is coming toward us that will bring excitement, joy, and opportunities?
  2. ACCEPT: what energies and situations are around us that we must learn to accept as reality?
  3. RELEASE: what is it time to let go of and leave behind so that we may grow?

The Story
  1. The Wheel denotes change and possibilities, and reminds us that the flow of life follows a higher purpose and order. Intelligent, flexible Octopus reflects both the structure of the Wheel and the need to remain adaptable. 

    Change is inevitable, and resisting universal rhythms will only make it more difficult. The last year and a half has been rife with upheaval and worry, but the Wheel tells us that we’re moving in a new direction. After everything we’ve been through, what’s not to like about that?

  2. Awakening brings renewal and enlightenment, the understanding that everything we go through has a purpose. Peacock shows us the transcendent beauty of spiritual evolution, serving as a real-world avatar for the mythical Phoenix, who resurrects herself from the ashes of the past.

    Since spring 2020, I’ve lost count of how many clients have said that they’re feeling their spiritual connection in a brand-new way - whether for the first time ever, or more intensely than ever before. Pandemic has changed our ways of working, of interacting, of simply living our day-to-day lives. 

    Even as we start to emerge from a difficult era, it’s time to accept that in some ways, we’ll never be the same. Many people have experienced undeniable pain and loss. Acceptance doesn’t mean forgetting; it’s more about adaptation. Take time to process our new realities; let knowledge guide you to a place of growth.

  3. Nine of Feathers is about fears, anxieties, and feeling vulnerable. On the surface, then, it seems as though Porcupine is the perfect representative: spiny quills to protect his body and keep troublesome things at a distance.

    Keeping our distance has been a theme for many months, offering the best way to keep ourselves safe and protect others as well. Cancer season sees us lowering those shields and slowly moving toward each other again. Be ready to open your life up with fewer barriers - just don’t lose sight of new realities. The worst is behind us for now, and we deserve to enjoy better days ahead.

Final Thoughts

There’s no denying that we’ve all faced major challenges this year and last, and almost no one has emerged unscathed. Big changes may close some doors but open others; things we learn now may not resonate until years ahead. 

The good news is that there’s peace, joy, and beauty to be found in the remnants of even the worst of times. Consider applying “embrace, accept, release” as an affirmation, one to remind you that all things in the universe have a flow and move us toward balance.
