The Cancer New Moon is a portal of protection, tenderness, and deep remembering. Cancer teaches us to come home to ourselves; to honor the waters we’ve wept, the hands that have held us, and the rituals that keep us rooted.

In this circle, we’ll reclaim devotion not as another task, but as a sacred form of emotional nourishment and ancestral care.

Together we’ll:

-Craft a ritual anointing oil inspired by Southern Italian traditions (using olive oil, rosemary, rose, and other herbs ) to support grounding, protection, and emotional clarity.

- Participate in a tea ceremony and learn about herbs that support tending to our nervous system—like Hawthorn, Motherwort, Linden and Skullcap.

-Write a “Devotional Homecoming” a personal ritual or rhythm you’re committing to for the next lunar cycle or season

We’ll end with a small communal offering given to the ancestors, spirits of the land, and the unseen allies who walk with us asking them to bless our homes, our hearts, and the paths we are now ready to walk with intention.
