Today, the Sun lingers.
He pauses in his journey, as if the heavens themselves are holding their breath. This is the longest light—the fullness of gold before the great turning inward begins again.
And here you are: open, alive, brimming with possibility.
Today the Sun moves into Cancer, and the warmth of the familiar wants to spread your arms wide to include something or someone new. With this fresh and gorgeous Cancer lens, there’s sweet longing to expand the heart’s circle. You might feel the nudge to gather your people close. To express your love in bigger, bolder ways. To feel them brighter, yet still long to keep them safe.
Within your circle, you might also feel a burning to shift the shape of your family dynamics, your relationships, your very definition of belonging – because you feel yourself growing and expanding toward something you might not yet know the shape of. But the urge to explore it is real.
This is a moment to feel. To let your sensitivity guide you. Let light seep into every corner of your desire to be alive and whole and lush. Summer ignites an understanding of the eros of life—that creativity is erotic.
The Sun and Jupiter in tandem proclaim:
More is possible.
More love.
More truth.
More safety in your own skin.
A part of you may feel wide open to the “more.” You may answer the call because you feel an urge to sort your space, to clear the table and name what you’re ready to do next. You may feel called to bring order to your outer world, because of some clarity that wasn’t there last week. Or maybe your focus sharpens around how you show up for others, what you give, and how to make it count. You suddenly recognize how you want to show up to serve in the world – and you’re feeling the need to assess what that means and how it’s possible. The challenges that arise are the ignition and the motivation. Let them light you up. Let them call you.
Within that light, that calling, is a beautiful ache—a knowing that change doesn’t always require chaos. Sometimes it only takes a turn of the dial, a conscious clearing of what has overstayed, and the future rushes in like light through an opened door.
The dreams you’ve whispered to stars?
They want your hands.
They want your structure.
And even if your heart trembles a little at their bigness,
you are more than ready to hold them.
Let today be your still point.
Your sunlit center.
The place you pause, just long enough, to feel the light of what’s arriving.
A beam of joy.
A living solstice.
The day that doesn’t end.
