Double Snake Moon Wanes
The days are slow but the years are fast; can you believe that it's already Summer?! Relative to your position on this planet, you may not even notice the heat, but a lap around the sun is a lap around the sun. If you feel like the seasons are lagging, try to relate this experience to the rabbit napping while the turtle keeps on trucking along. Don't worry, we have an extra goat moon this summer for leap year - maybe you can catch up.
As for the poetry of the moment, it's time to put your crocs in sport mode. We're well past the warm up phase of the year and finally primed for action! This is the time to dig into your projects and pump up the productivity. With the Yang Water Horse moon waiting around the corner, you're going to want to hit this next phase running. It's go time, guys!
By in large, the summer solstice pretty much always aligns with the horse moon - which makes perfect sense. Horses are known for their power and drive, so it fits perfectly with the flavor of this phase. With all of that in mind, are you ready for action? You better lace up those running shoes, because things are about to pick up!
