Crab Magic
The beautiful myths of the Greeks served to embody the lessons of the zodiac very nicely. Hercules, the original giant strong man, was said in myth to have done battle with a nine- headed monster called Hydra. Being super-guy he won, of course, but the Hydra had a friend, a Crab. In its endeavor to help, the Crab bit Hercules on his heel and we reckon that had him limping for a while.
Hera, the wife of Zeus didn't get it on with Hercules too well (step-son, you know), and awarded that Crab a place in the heavens as the Constellation Cancer. That's a neat story, but the real point is that the fourth constellation of our year is Cancer the Crab and hidden within the story is the story of the Cancer people. First of all, it is obvious that the Cancer types are faithful and loyal. Old Crab stuck up for his friend Hydra in its own way, helping however it could. A bite on Hercules' heel may not be much to a giant, but Crab did his faithful bit (or should we say bite?) This exemplifies that a fierce loyalty is part of the Cancer thing.
Think about the Crab. Ever watch one move? He is like a sailing ship beating to windward. He goes North by traveling N.E. then N.W. The crab, at least the one we last observed, will go straight for the water by running along the pier sideways. Furthermore, wherever the Crab is, he is at home, for he carries his home on his back, and whenever he outgrows it he casts it off and grows a new one. Nomadic, secretive, and evasive are the natives of Cancer. But inside that hard outer shell, should you somehow penetrate it, he is all soft and mooshy with real feelings and a real sensitivity. Cancerians are faithful and brave.
During this month we will find ourselves in circumstances where we will be influenced to know and trust our feelings more. Remember to "check in" occasionally to discover how you feel inside, and what your "gut feeling" is telling you.
The glyph of Cancer holds no mystery. It is the Crab. If this is not immediately apparent you can see it very quickly the next time you meet one. The thing to do is to get down to the same level as a friendly crab and look it straight in the eyes peering out from between the shells, and that explains the glyph.
The divine teaching during Cancer is "I FEEL". Hence, the sensitivity of the emotions of the Moon-children. Cancer people are very emotional. This discovery of feeling combined with the thinking found in last month's lesson, makes the superb combination that makes us human.
Feelings, or our emotions, are a function of the superconscious mind while our ability to reason is a conscious function. When we put the two together we have raised our operations to a union of the mental and the mortal and it is this union which characterizes people.
With the acquisition of "feeling", as typified by Cancer, we bring into play in ourselves the Cancer Keyword "IMAGINATION". This too is a super-conscious function, for with our feelings in operation we can now function with our superconscious mind.

IMAGINATION is the key to Cancer
Imagination is the creation of a picture by your own mind. Imagination is what you can "see" in your mind's eye. This should not be confused with clairvoyance, which is the art of the "seer". While clairvoyance is a form of seeing, the pictures are seen passively of scenes at a distance. In imagination we are speaking of an active picturing of things in the mind of familiar things that may occur in our daily lives, or how we could dream about the way we want our lives to be. (From the teachings of Father Eli, Grand Master of the Druidic Craft of the Wise in America).

Question of the Month
Feelings are the focus during this month of Cancer. Checking in with our inner `gut feelings' is the first step toward knowing the difference between our own feelings and those superimposed upon us from outside ourselves. Have you ever been in a room and recognized a change in your own feelings that was due to the entrance of another? If we superimpose our feelings on each other, then can we really hide our inner feelings?
Dr. Emoto's experiments with aiming our thoughts and feelings at water and then observing the change in the crystalline structure is most remarkable. If our thoughts can do this to water, and we are made up of mostly water, ourselves, then what kind of feelings would be best to carry around inside?
It's worth thinking about
