Cancer season begins on June 21 and lasts until July 22 and is one of the most emotionally charged seasons of the zodiac year. We allow ourselves to feel and process our emotions much more intensely during Cancer season.
As a result, we become less focused on our identity and goals and seek emotional connection and understanding with those closest to us, especially our family and relatives.
What is cancer season?
Cancer is the sign of the crab and Cancer is a water sign. When it’s Cancer season, we usually allow ourselves to tap into our emotions and be more open and vulnerable with those we feel safe and trust.
We break through the rigidity of our ego and allow ourselves to show our more emotional side.
So often we keep our feelings to ourselves or secret because we fear others will have negative reactions to our emotions. But when the Sun moves through Cancer, we can speak out and not fear judgment based on our emotional responses.
During Cancer season, we can allow ourselves to intertwine our emotions with our self-expression. We can be honest, truthful and candid about our emotional reality and share vulnerabilities that we usually avoid. Cancer season is a time when intense emotionally charged conversations will take place. You can process family problems or trauma-based emotional responses and help others process them.
Cancer season is about understanding that for inner peace to exist, we need to be heard and understood, and we need healthy outlets for our emotions. Finding support from those closest to us is the best way to navigate our dark days. So how can you make the most of Cancer season?
10 Ways to Have the Best Cancer Season
Spend quality time with your family.
There’s no better time than Cancer season to bring the family together and reconnect and see where everyone is at. Plan more family dinners, outings and activities that provide more quality time with loved ones as this is the best time to strengthen your bonds and mend the broken ties with your family.
Put your family first above all other things.
There’s a time and place for everything, and Cancer season isn’t the best time to focus too much on anything other than family. Leo season is the time when you will be more focused on your personal goals and developing your identity, but for now you should focus on getting the support you need as you pursue your goals head on.
Be careful not to make too many plans that don’t involve your family and make spending time with them your first priority.
Make your home space more comfortable.
Comfort is the goal. Avoid attempting to make your home space functional as this is what you will be doing and focusing on during Virgo season. We all need a safe place to return to after a busy day, and having a comfortable home helps build a sense of security in our lives.
Create a space where you and your family members can just be without worrying too much about impressions.
Bake delicious treats!
There’s no better way to show your loved ones that you care than by filling their bellies with delicious meals and treats. Cancer is known as the mother of the zodiac, so Cancer season is the best time to show your motherly side.
Allow yourself to be more domesticated and spend more time in the kitchen.
Let the emotions flow.
Cry when you feel like crying and let out all your negative emotions. As the Sun moves through Cancer, this is an important time to release pent-up emotions in order to have maximum creative energy during Leo season, which comes right after Cancer season.
Unresolved, pent-up emotions limit you and prevent you from focusing your emotional energy on your goals and what is essential. Finding ways to feel without limiting yourself can be healing during Cancer season.
Nourish yourself and others.
How can you implement new structures in your life that can help you and your family be healthier and happier? Find new ways to improve the well-being of yourself and your family, such as preparing healthy, nutritious meals more regularly or planning weekly family outings.
Be the therapist for those you love.
Allow others to open up and talk to you about what they are going through and vice versa. Much emotional healing can take place when others feel like they have someone to talk to and who will listen to them.
Think about the sentimental memories from the past that you have.
Surround yourself with sentimental items, such as old gifts and photos. We can often forget that we are loved and that others care about us if we are not reminded that they do.
Surround yourself with reminders that your loved one cares about you so you feel more supported in your daily life.
Protect yourself and your loved ones from influences that could disrupt your safe, comfortable space.
The world can be a messy, demanding place, and it’s essential to prioritize getting closer to your loved ones during Cancer season. Don’t allow outside distractions to take away the beautiful, quality time you can spend with your family.
Strengthen your intuition through various exercises.
Let your emotions be your guide during Cancer season. It is easier to tap into and understand your emotional space during this time; Therefore, practices that help you become aware of yourself and others can have a significant impact if practiced while the Sun moves through Cancer.
