Phelps Counseling, Consulting & Training

🌑♋️🦀 July 5th, 2024 The New Moon in Cancer represents a time of new beginnings and emotional growth. Cancer is a water sign ruled by the Moon, so this lunar phase is particularly potent for exploring our feelings, intuition, and emotional needs. The Cancer New Moon encourages us to focus on our home life, family connections, and inner nurturing. It's a time to set intentions related to self-care, emotional healing, and strengthening our relationships with loved ones.

During the Cancer New Moon, we may find ourselves more in tune with our emotions and more introspective about our past experiences. This is a favorable time for addressing any emotional wounds or patterns that may be holding us back and for setting new intentions that align with our deepest emotional desires. It's also a good time to connect with our intuition and inner wisdom to guide us on our path forward.

Overall, the Cancer New Moon invites us to dive deep into our emotional world, to nurture ourselves and others, and to plant seeds of intention that will grow and blossom in the coming weeks. It's a time of sensitivity, compassion, and healing, encouraging us to listen to our hearts and honor our emotional truth.

Here are some journal prompts that you can use during the Cancer New Moon:

1. How have I been feeling emotionally lately? What emotions have been coming up for me?
2. In what ways can I nurture and care for myself better during this time?
3. How can I create a more peaceful and supportive home environment for myself?
4. What childhood patterns or wounds are surfacing for me now, and how can I work through them?
5. What intentions do I want to set for deepening my emotional connections with others?
6. What memories or situations from the past are affecting me currently, and how can I release and heal from them?
7. How can I strengthen my intuition and trust my inner guidance more?
8. What practices or rituals can I incorporate into my daily routine to support my emotional well-being?
9. What new beginnings am I ready to embrace in my life, and how can I nurture them to grow?
10. How can I create more balance between my personal and professional life during this lunar phase?

Feel free to adapt these prompts to suit your own personal reflection and exploration during the Cancer New Moon.

I have been studying the science and spirituality of astrology for the past 2 years. One of my missions this year is to help others to learn and understand what their birth charts mean to them and to their life and future. I am a novice and I work with astrologer, Ashely Tracey. I definitely am not "fluent" in astrology, but I want to help others get started to help them find their journey that has been foretold to them.

Sending virtual hugs to everyone who needs it this holiday season. 💙

I can tell it's Monday. I posted on the wrong FB page about meditation.
Anyway, I started my day by meditating which I try to do regularly, but I have been missing the last few days. I always feel better after I meditate. I'm thinking of doing a basic class on meditating because I think people think there is more to it that there really is. With practice, I started at 5 minutes and now, if I give myself permission of time, I can do 30 minutes. Some guided, some just music. Always a good experience either way.
This morning I chose a morning meditation to "Raise Your Vibration" on YouTube. I didn't raise my vibration enough to be able to get it to copy the link, but look for it on YouTube. It's about 10 minutes long. Lots of positive energy from it!
Have a great day!

My mom rage is a product of overstimulation I often find myself in this out-of-body experience—watching this whirlwind of disarray run its course through my life, leaving me an overwrought and overwhelmed mother just trying her best to mend the pieces back together.

On my way home from a 12 hour day of cutting lawns, I seen this gentleman, I have no clue who he is to this day. But I said no way was I gonna let this guy tackle this on his own. So I turned around and went back and unloaded my mower and drove across the street and ask the gentleman if I could help.

His eyes lit up and I took that as a yes. I ran down, jumped on my mower and went to work. As I’m cutting the lawn I look over and see the gentleman hunched over his wife, resting his head on her shoulder. So I get it knocked out in no time. I give them a thumbs up and proceeded to load my mower up. The wife makes her way over before I could leave. She was so thankful! Their riding mower broke down and her husband has been mowing their big lawn with a push mower. It only took 15 mins of my time. I changed their life, for a small moment.

I hope someone reads this and feels like doing something good for someone tomorrow. I’m grateful to be where I’m at and I’m thankful for the people that help me get here.

No change will occur in a relationship that is stuck in too much conflict or too much distance unless one person becomes self-focused. Self-focused does not mean self-blaming. It means that you put your energy into observing and changing your part in a relationship pattern that is bringing you pain.

Why should you have to do the work? You don’t. But if you’re unhappy with the status quo and you don’t change your steps in the dance, well, no one else will do it for you.

if you want a recipe for relationship failure, just wait for the other person to change first.
