Cancer Cancer
September 10 ~ September 24
Eclipses are in your blood, Moon-child. They can send your journey into another stratosphere — or even another time zone altogether. This one is no exception. Early in the portal, Mercury in Virgo sextiles Jupiter in Cancer (September 12), signaling that even the smallest detail, the tiniest shift of perception, can ripple outward into something massive. It’s like a single pebble dropped in still water, sending waves across the whole lake — or a butterfly’s wing stirring a tidal wave of good fortune. What begins modestly may swell into a blessing far beyond its first spark.
Deep relief arrives as Mars exits Libra (September 22), yet on its way into fellow water sign Scorpio, it locks into a charged square with Pluto in Aquarius. For you, Cancer, this is no ordinary rub — it signals evolutionary necessity. Old dynamics around power, intimacy, and trust rise to the surface, demanding change. What may feel like a breaking point is, in truth, a turning point, carving a deeper channel for passion and purpose to flow. As Mars crosses into Scorpio, the intensity shifts from conflict into empowerment. This deepens your emotional currents, but in ways that sustain rather than drain. Here, passion becomes your map, guiding you into creative intimacy, Soul-driven work, and alliances that ignite renewal.
The Solar Eclipse at 29° Virgo on Sunday, Sept. 21, supports you, forming a harmonious sextile to your Sun. While other signs may feel destabilized, for you the eclipse acts like a cosmic ally — offering opportunities, messages, and breakthroughs that affirm you are on the right path. Virgo helps you organize your dreams into tangible steps, honing your ability to discern what feeds your life force and what must be set free. For you, Cancer, the Virgo Eclipse activates your third house — the realm of voice, self-expression, and exchange. This is the house of the writer, the speaker–the messenger. Here, the eclipse opens a fated threshold around how you communicate, what truths you carry, and how your words reverberate out into the world. At the anaretic degree, Virgo demands precision. It refines your ability to choose words that matter — to edit what is extraneous, and to channel messages that carry life force. Your voice is no longer casual; it becomes a tool of service and influence.
But communication here is more than speech. It is every form of expression your Soul chooses: A dancer telling a story with their body, an artist sketching without words, a hand reaching out in silence — all belong to this realm. The smallest creative gestures — like a brushstroke, a note of music, or a line of poetry — may resound with stunning impact. Do not underestimate the power of these tides. With Venus entering Virgo on Friday, Sept. 19, the harmony is amplified. Love, resources, and creative expression flow more compatibly, rewarding your attention to detail and devotion to what truly matters. This eclipse portal uplifts you. Trust the tiny cues, the quiet details, the whispers you might otherwise dismiss. They are not small — they are the pebbles that set tidal waves in motion.
Your voice is your vessel. Use it with care, with love, and with clarity — and soon your life may never be the same!

Personal Message from Kristin
If the energy within my words feels different — more urgent, more direct, more on fire — it is because I am in the midst of completing a long-awaited project on the female warrior, the Amazon. In these pages I trace her fierce energy as she moves through every sign of the zodiac, revealing how she lives and breathes in each of us, with an intention to awaken the wild feminine within you. The aim is for you to harness the courage necessary to fearlessly go after what you came here to be and do. This work has been years in the making, and I look forward to sharing it with you in 2026.
Joy is a frequency. Gratitude is a portal. Together, they change everything! ~ Matt Cooke
