Selena (White Moon) moves into the sign of Cancer

Since June 14, 2024, Selena, also known as the White Moon, has been traveling in the sign of Gemini. On January 14, 2025, Selena moves into the sign of Cancer, where she will travel for 7 months until August 15, 2025. Good luck not only to those of the Cancer sign, but to everyone who will feel and consciously perceive the manifestation of this energy.

We will not see the White Moon in the sky as a planet or satellite. It is a mathematically calculated "virtual" point related to the elliptical orbit of the Moon when it is the furthest from the planet Earth (the closest reference point to the Earth is perigee, and the furthest is apogee). True, in astronomy we will meet another Selene - this is an asteroid orbiting in the asteroid belt.

In Greek mythology, Selene was the goddess of the Moon. In Roman mythology, her counterpart is the goddess Luna. Selene was the daughter of the Titans Hyperion and Theia, who traveled the sky with a torch at night, while her brother Helios, the god of the Sun, traveled during the day. Selene is depicted in a silver chariot drawn by a pair of horses or riding a horse or bull. She is a pale-faced goddess of extraordinary beauty, dressed in a mantle and wearing a crescent moon on her head.

In astrology, the White Moon (Selena) is associated with the good achievements of past lives, with the light of consciousness, with grace and spiritual help and protection. Also with a higher meaning, the harmonious path of world evolution. This point has a subtle effect. The more a person develops, the more clearly, concentratedly and strongly its effect is felt. A strong White Moon in a person's horoscope will manifest itself as a conscious and realized oneness, a connection with everything and everyone, as an illuminated, blessed and protected path to the best options for (self)realization.

In our birth horoscope, we each have our own personal brightest point located in one of the Zodiac signs. At this time, from January 14, 2025, we will experience the expression of the White Moon in the sign of Cancer in the collective consciousness. Cancer is a sign of the water element, which is associated with the world of feelings and emotions, with intuition, intuition and instincts. Let us take this opportunity to purify our relationship with the water element. If the water is pure and clean, we can clearly perceive the “subconscious currents” and feel the “clear flow of consciousness”. Let us visit bodies of water, communicate with the water element, conserve and do not pollute the water. Even daily bathing can become a pleasant “practice”, if, for example, we are grateful for the abundant gifts that water provides.

It is likely that we will feel safer by being sensitive or expressing our feelings, we will trust our instinctive reactions more. We will open ourselves to tenderness, care, and seek all kinds of security. It will be important to foster emotional security in our own homes, creating coziness, beauty, comfort, or even intimacy in our own space. “Legalizing” emotional expression will also increase the need to understand feelings, talk about them, read, attend trainings, or try the benefits of therapy.

The energy of the Cancer sign is sensitive and nurturing. It is associated with roots, family, lineage, ancestors, traditions. It is a symbol of the female line and motherhood. Therefore, during this period, attention will increase to family issues, the continuation of the family or the knowledge of the family genealogical tree. The pure concept and significance of ancestral traditions in the modern world. It is favorable to turn to the female line of your family, to your feminine energy, to your relationship with yourself, with your mother, with your children. Let's read fairy tales, legends, myths - this is one of the ways to contact the secrets of the collective subconscious of the ancestors of humanity.

We would lose the gifts of the White Moon's light and do the most harm to ourselves and the world during this period by closing ourselves off from feelings and emotions, betraying ourselves or others, withdrawing out of fear or taking offense. During this period, it is better not to "fall victim", but on the contrary, to seek compassion and take responsibility for the life we ​​are creating and the states we are experiencing. Resentments, manipulations, unfounded suspicions or various attachments would distance the bright spread of Selena. It is important to foster respectful relationships in the family, clan, nation, but not to become insensitive nationalists or blind "wall builders" against others who are different.

It is also important to understand that the gifts, protection, and help of the White Moon's light sometimes come with experiences of purification and cleansing, which may not be the easiest, but are necessary on the path of evolution.

Let the light of Selena gently envelop our sensitivity. Let the beauty of the world of feelings and clear inner knowing spread.

Wishing for light -
