Cancer Weekly Horoscope

There is quite a buzzy vibration echoing throughout the skies early this week, thanks to a special Half Moon in Taurus and your 11th House of Social Networks on the 5th. Life may have felt rather limited lately, and it’s more than likely you’re chomping at the bit to meet a few new people or at least interact with someone different than the people you’ve surrounded yourself with recently. A chance to shake things up might arrive under this energy, but don’t expect too much to happen at once; Half Moons are neither seeding time nor for harvesting, but a check-in phase, so do just that and check in.

Next, on the 6th, loving Venus will leave Virgo and your 3rd House of Local Community, and dive into Libra and your 4th House of Home and Feelings. For the next four weeks, romance will be about wearing your heart on your sleeve, and while you might normally prefer a secure and stable partner, they will look even more attractive this time around. Couples will enjoy more time together on the couch, or in other areas of your abode, but singles can also entertain more at Chez Cancer, so don’t be shy about whipping out silk sheets and the scented candles for a little seduction. If you’re not in a romantic mood, however, this is also great for just having more friends and family around your space, as everyone will be happy to come enjoy your company, so feel free to roll out the red carpet.

The 5th could also bring an important professional milestone as the Sun in Leo and your 2nd House of Income trines karmic Saturn in Aries and your 10th House of Career. The Sun is pushing you to get your money’s worth and ensure you are being properly compensated for your efforts, while Saturn is encouraging you to work hard and put in the effort required to see the results you want to see. Fortunately, this angle is a harmonious one, so it seems your work will pay off if you are diligent; remember, Saturn may ask a lot of you, but it will reward effort, just as it will punish laziness.

Now then, messenger Mercury has spent the last couple months spinning through your sign and your 1st House of Action; this is normally a great time for coming up with new concepts and crystalizing projects, but thanks to a complicated retrograde cycle that obscured most of July, it might have been a little more than difficult to separate the wheat from the chaff. Come the 9th, however, there is a positive shift in the energy overhead as Mercury waves goodbye to your sign and dives into expressive Leo and your grounded 2nd House for the next couple of weeks. During this exciting transit, business opportunities will present themselves with more frequency than usual, so if you’ve been on the lookout to increase your net worth this would be the time to roll up your sleeves and get to work!
