Good morning everyone!
Do you have something placed on the 29/30 degree of Cancer? This is the very last degree in Cancer, right on the cusp of Leo. I have the trans-Neptunian dwarf planet, Orcus there, I know my brother has Jupiter there, and I’m sure a lot of other people have placements there as well.
The Sabian Symbol for Cancer 29/30 reads: “A Daughter of the American Revolution,” and according to the seers of the Sabian mysteries, this is tied to respect for tradition.
Yesterday, I used several books in my possession for reference in order to come up with a view of what this degree is all about.
So, the 29/30 degree of Cancer is in the last decan of the sign. Since signs are 30 degrees, astrologers broke them down into decans, which is three groups of 10 degrees. Each decan has it’s own description, unique field of energy, and sign ruler.
According to my good friend, Bernie Ashman, the last decan of Cancer is between the dates 7/12 and 7/21, and this is important because it gives us a time frame, or a time of the year, which helps to create an image in our minds we can attach to the degree. So, we’re obviously dealing with the summer time here in the northern hemisphere. Imagine a warm summer day with the sun glaring off the surface of a vast ocean.
Pisces is the ruler of this 3rd zone, the energy field is mutable, and the related signs are Cancer and Pisces. Cancer and Pisces translates to “fueled by causes.”
So, according to Ashman, the 29/30 degree of Cancer is tied to causes. This is super interesting.
Why?
Because according to astrologer, Woolfolk, the 29/30 degree of Cancer is connected to the ancient constellation, Argo Navis. Mythology tells us Argo Navis was the magical ship of adventure, and it was placed in the heavens by Poseidon to help guide sailors traveling the southern seas.
We now have a degree fueled by causes that’s connected the magical ship of adventure, Argo Navis. This connects us directly to the Movie, Jason and the Argonauts (Argo/Argonauts). Jason choses 50 men, the Argonauts, who assist him on his journey to find the Golden Fleece.
For a better understanding of this degree and the placements you have there, it would be helpful to watch this awesome movie.
At the end of the day, the 29/30 degree of Cancer, if we have placements there, can create this heightened sense of purpose. It could have us feeling as Ashman accurately described, fueled by causes. And consider the Sabian Symbol, “A daughter of the American Revolution.” Breaking away from Britain and claiming independence was a cause felt by the people living in the North American Colonies at that time in the 1700s.
Because Cancer is naturally a 4th house sign, and the 4th house governs our home, we all, in a sense, are faced with a journey and fueled by a cause because at some point, we all have to grow up and leave our parents. In order to become independent and create our own lives, we have to leave the home we grew up in.
I hope this helps deepen your understanding of the 29/30 degree of Cancer. I can go deeper and get more in depth for those who are advanced in the field of astrology, but as far a basic understanding is concerned, I think this is appropriate.
Have a great day everyone!
