Finding Balance in the Cancer Transit

It’s currently late June, and with Jupiter, Mercury, and Venus all moving through Cancer, our emotional bodies are feeling pretty tender. Cancer is ruled by the Moon, and it governs our home, our roots, and how we nurture ourselves. When this much energy sits in such a sensitive sign, you might feel a bit more irritable or clingy than usual.

Since it’s the transition toward peak summer, keeping your Pitta dosha in check is vital. You don't want that internal fire flaring up along with the seasonal heat. I always recommend a simple Ayurvedic tip during this transit: add cooling herbs like fresh mint or cilantro to your meals. They’re excellent for soothing the digestive system when life feels a bit chaotic.

Try to avoid heavy, spicy, or fried foods for the next few days. Stick to hydrating options like cucumber, watermelon, and coconut water. It’ll help keep your mind clear while your emotions are working through these shifts. Remember, your home is your sanctuary right now. Don't be afraid to take an extra evening to yourself, just unwinding with a quiet cup of CCF tea—cumin, coriander, and fennel seeds steeped in hot water.
