Herbal Remedies for Zodiac Sign-Cancer
ZODIAC CANCER
Oh sensitive, selfless and nurturing Cancer. I am so grateful that you exist, you show us how to process our emotions and feel the world around us. You show us how to not be afraid of our feelings but to use them to guide us through life and to create new ways.
Your season starts June 22nd and closes up July 22nd.
You are ruled by the Moon, the element of Water and you set in the West.
I admire your loyalty and your will to give everyone a safe place. I admire your empathy and the way you make everyone feel safe and secure.
When you are out of balance it could be because you have given too much of yourself to others. Your desire to be there for everyone else has left you depleted, vulnerable and out of balance. You are giving and giving but not receiving. These are some herbal tools to help you self-soothe and to help move you along your inner journey of self appreciation and validity. It is OKAY to devote time to yourself and to say NO to those who are taking advantage of you.
