THE SUN ENTERS CANCER & SUMMER BEGINS:

On Saturday June 20^th at 5:44 P.M. EDT we finally enter summer just before the lunar cycle ends. For many of us (me included – I am a summer baby after all) this is the season we wait for all year. The brief three months that the child in us embraces the peak of personal freedom, adventure and romance. I remember all my summer love affairs and the excitement and tingling I felt when that person would appear on the horizon for our date. A walk on the beach, a drive through the country or just sitting on the porch as the summer day slowly faded into evening and the fireflies would begin their electric dance. I don’t know what it is. There’s just something special about a summer kiss. That feeling of freedom and excitement can still stir the teenager in me, and after being locked up in karmic jail for so long I think we will all be more in tune with our youth and sense of wonder that may have faded over the years. There’s always a silver lining to the worst of times, and maybe our current troubles will help to readjust our values and remind us that while a month may seem very long, life is very short and it’s so important to always find that miraculous sensation that stirs our loins and strips away the dust and weight we have carried for so many years. So go out with an open heart and child’s awe and see what the universe has in store for you. Remember, you’re only as old as you feel.
