Cancer

December 2024

You start this month off in the Sun sign of Sagittarius which can help you to focus your attention upon taking better care of yourself. Mercury is retrograde in the sign of Sagittarius (back direct on December 15th) which can scramble your communication abilities during the retrograde phase. You may be thinking that you want to say one thing and end up saying something else that you didn’t even mean to say. Or you may find that your temperament is a little bit more on edge when you’re feeling tired and crabby. Speaking of tired…Mars the planet of energy…is also in retrograde motion this month starting on December 15th. You can feel the shadow of Mars retrograde well before it arrives (in fact you may have been feeling this shift back in November). Mars retrograde in the sign of Leo is asking you to use your intuition more, especially within yourself regarding how much you value yourself so that you can take good care of yourself even more. Try not to look outside of yourself for the validation, from others, that you are valuable Keep in mind that other people are going through these same retrogrades too in their own ways; thus they may not have the time, energy, nor correct words for you that you want to hear. Don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater and get rid of your relationships because of this. Instead try to be comforting and understanding. Give to others what you desire to receive in return. If it’s positive attention you seek this can be easier to obtain once the Sun moves into the sign of Capricorn starting on December 21st. Before then, especially when the Full Moon in Gemini arrives on the 15th you may be feeling much more introverted anyway. Bide your time, take good care of yourself, try to get more rest, and use your energy towards only what you feel is most important on your own ‘to do’ list each day. Try to keep your personal schedule as light as possible. Give yourself a much needed break. If you move too fast, think too fast, or expect too much from yourself during this phase of time you will only end up feeling more negatively crabby when you don’t need to be. Be extra good to yourself this month and you will see that everything you desired to get done can be done quite efficiently. The holidays can be an enjoyable time for you, in many enjoyable and productive ways, when you take the extra time to take care of yourself first in many special ways! Once we are in Capricorn season, starting December 21st, your focus will be on spending quality time with the ones you love the most! Don’t sweat the small stuff! The more you can put your attention towards what you desire to create in your New Year ahead…the happier you can be in knowing that “If your mind can conceive it and you believe it them yes you can achieve it and receive it!” Keep smiling Cancer. When you do those around you will be smiling too!

November 2024

This month the planet Mars will be in shadow of going retrograde (actual date December 6th) and in shadow of Mercury going retrograde (November 25th) which you may be able to feel (because you are so sensitive) for most of this month. Is your energy lower than usual? Is communication a bit daunting? Do you desire to retreat more than usual and just enjoy your homey creature comforts? If you answered yes to those questions then you’ll be feeling these upcoming retrogrades well before they actually arrive. It’s perfectly okay for you to feel more introverted and want to be left alone for awhile. The dramas taking place out in the world may not hold any interest for you. What happens happens you may say, because it’s too exhausting for you to be a part of anything you have no control over. The New Moon in Scorpio on November 1st gives you a chance to focus your efforts this month on only doing what you enjoy most. Everything else may feel like a chore. Anyone who doesn’t bring you enjoyment can just buzz off. You won’t have the time nor energy for complaining discussions. The best thing to say to the complainers is “Are you having fun yet?” and let them figure things out for themselves without pulling you into their personal dramas. On the other hand, anyone who desires to comfort you and help you out will be welcomed and appreciated 10 fold by you.! Those good people are your people that you will desire to be around the most! The Full Moon in Taurus on November 15th can help you to realize who and what is most valuable to you. Your attention, from this point onwards, will be on the people, things, situations, and opportunities that can bring the most value into your life. It’s in this valuable direction that you will focus upon the most. Asking yourself questions like, “Does this job bring me value? Does this person bring me value? Do these things I own feel valuable to be? Do I give myself credit for my own creative talents that are very valuable to others?” Question like this can help you to evaluate what is most valuable in your life and what other situations you desire to bring even more value into it. Moving onwards to November 21st the Sun will move into the sign of Sagittarius which can help to bring more action into your life; especially regarding spending ore time taking care of yourself, your health, and the duties/tasks that you want to get accomplished. Now remember that Mercury moves retrograde on November 25th, also in the sign of Sagittarius, so take it slow…do one thing at a time, and know that whatever you choose to do is plenty good enough.

October 2024

You start this month off with a New Moon/Lunar Eclipse in the sign of Libra on October 2nd. This eclipse energy can make you feel a little more emotionally vulnerable than usual. Try not to take anything too personally. The lesson of this lunar eclipse (for the next 6 months) is to focus on the area of your life where more teamwork is needed. Can you be a cheerleader, helper, and provider for the ones you love OR are your defenses up and you feel that you have to be in total control of everyone all of the time in order to feel emotionally safe? The more you can think like a WE team, instead of a ME team, the easier this phase of time can be on yourself. Try to avoid bad habits that may seem like they help but can make you actually feel even more vulnerable during this phase of time. Be extra careful when driving this month. Without realizing it your mind may be spacey when you need to be more responsibly focused. Try to concentrate on what you are doing instead of just going through the motions and hoping for the best. You can keep yourself safe from accidents if you remind yourself to concentrate on what you are doing. On October 22nd the Sun moves into the sign of Scorpio which can help put you in a much better mood. Your sense of creativity is soaring! Your hormones may be soaring too…lol. A little fun and romance never hurt anyone. Just make sure that the person your with is still the person you desire to wake up with in the morning. There can be a sexy new renewal for couples that have been together for a long time. Pay attention to how you feel and be honest with your feelings; don’t neglect them. If you’re single this is a good time to get out and mingle! It will be easy for you to get your flirt on! Fun, romance, and enjoyment may be first on your mind. Just remember to continue to be responsible. The Full Moon in Aries on October 17th reminds you that there’s work that needs to be done. What have you procrastinated on Cancer for far too long? It’s time to put on your thinking cap and get back to work on being the best person you can be for yourself and for those you love.

September 2024

The New Moon in Virgo arrives on September 2nd in the organized sign of Virgo. Communications can be abundant. Details are important. Organizing your life may be your #1 priority this month. First clearing out your unwanted thoughts, that can be too distracting, then once the Sun moves into the lovely sign of Libra on the 22nd you will be ready to bring more comfort and beauty to your living space. You may find yourself extra busy this month with work duties of all kinds. You can handle the over-time as long as you are taking care of yourself and your loved ones first. With the Sun in Libra your focus will be on your family, pets, and creating a safe secure and beautiful home for yourself and everyone you love. Your relationships may make you feel vulnerable at times, but this can be handled more easily by letting others around you know how you feel in the most open and honest ways. Try to avoid arguments. Anyone starting arguments with you may only get the cold shoulder. It’s best for you to just walk away and let the other person talk to you when their head is on straight. Take good care of yourself Cancer. Remind yourself daily that you are a wonderful good hearted person.

August 2024

You may wonder who can you turn to, who can you trust, when you feel uncertain and situations seem to be rough? The answer is always yourself Cancer. You have the creativity and strong intuition to see you through any situation. Don’t doubt your strong abilities to come up with new and inventive solutions that can be very beneficial for yourself and those who count on you. The key to your success is to believe in yourself! You have skills and talents that you haven’t even tapped into yet. This is the month that is going to show you have truly capable you are! The New Moon on August 4th jump starts your self-determination for the next 12 months. Yes you will be very aware of how much you expect others to help you and if they don’t you’ll be very aware of that too. The Full Moon in Aquarius on August 19th brings this to your attention more than ever before, but with gratitude in your heart for what others do try to do…you’ll begin to see more cooperation and participation in the very near future. The compliments you give for a job well done will make the people around you desire to do more. On the other hand…the criticisms you may give can back fire on you during this Mercury retrograde season. You may be trying to teach others, coax others, or down right get angry with some people…but it’s through your own words of approval that they will then choose to do the most for you…and not run away. In other words you’ll receive what you need by being kind instead of bitter. On August 22nd the Sun moves into the sign of Virgo. At first you may not feel like you’re being hear or taken seriously; until Mercury moves back into direct motion on August 28th. But once again the nicer you can be the more others will pay attention to you. You just need to remind yourself that this is what you need to do; which wont be east at times. One Mercury moves back into direct motion ‘then’ you will slowly begin to see the progress you’ve been looking forward to all month. in the meantime don’t give up nor give into any sense of defeat. Instead give yourself LOTS of pats on the pack for everything that you’re doing so well. Soon very soon, you’ll receive the loving Thank You that you’ve been looking forward to; as well as cooperation and more support so that you can rest too.

July 2024

This is your time to shine Cancer! With the Sun in your sign and the new moon in Cancer arriving on July 5th you can write down your hopes, dreams and wishes…and begin to look forward to them! Beautiful Venus is also in your sign until 12:19 PM EDT on July 11th. What do you truly desire Cancer? How would you truly feel if what you desire is already in your life? Feel the feelings, as if what you desire is already with you, because when you do then you’re heading in the right direction towards receiving what you truly want in the not too distant future! You deserve what you desire! Say that to yourself, “I DO deserve what I desire!” Then with great gratitude in your heart begin to look forward to a brighter future. The Full Moon in Capricorn arrives on July 21st at 6:17 am EDT. This is the 2nd Full Moon in Capricorn (1st one was at 01’07” degrees on June 6/21 and this one is at 29’09”) making this a very special Full Moon in Capricorn indeed! For you this beautiful Full Moon highlights your 7th house of your most personal relationships. Those you love the most are very dedicated to you…and you towards them. How wonderful it feels to have such commitment and dedication in your life. Situations may not be perfect, but there is much love around you! New people you may meet from this point of time onwards can become very good long lasting friends. It’s nice to know that the support you may need is there for you, especially when you need it most. BE extra nurturing to yourself too Cancer. Try not to push yourself too hard. Starting on July 11th beautiful Venus moves into the sign of Leo which highlights your ability to use your creative talents to increase your income. Opportunities will easily flow your way. Yes more money can be easily made. But keep in mind that your true wealth is your good health! Do what you can and know that that’s good enough. Any emotional and/or physical challenges you may have can be overcome through your resilience and self-care. It’s summer time, have some fun! Take time to the fun things you love!

June 2024

What’s bugging you so much Cancer? Are you keeping your feelings hidden because you may feel that no one will understand you? Those people in your life who love you most are there to listen to your concerns and your dreams. You may just be feeling more tired than usual while the Sun is in the sign of Gemini. It’s perfectly okay to take some time off to renew and recharge you inner batteries. When the Sun moves into your sign on June 22nd then you’ll get your zest for life back. In the meantime you may feel like your at your wits end just going through the motions and not wanting to. Hang in there Cancer…situations will change. The first part of June will show you what you don’t need anymore. The last 2 weeks of this month are for dreaming big dreams that can help you come up with some grand new ideas you can look forward to.

May 2024

Finally the relief that you’ve been waiting for arrives when the New Moon in Taurus takes place on May 7th. From this point of time onwards you should feel more naturally enthusiastic and happier with your life. The energies last month in April were intense. You are not the same person that you were then. A huge maturity jump took place as you became more emotionally intelligent. You know now what to fret over and what to just walk away from. By becoming more emotionally nonchalant you regained your confidence. Other people’s opinions won’t bother you so much anymore. What a relief to know that you get to choose how you want to feel. Instead of feeling like a victim you’re becoming more real with your own feelings. The challenges you went through last month have taught you to have more of a “whatever” attitude (with a smile) towards those who may criticize, disagree, or expect more out of you then you’re willing to give. You’ll listen to other’s grievances, but that doesn’t mean that you’ll give into them. You’re desire to be happy and to see yourself succeed is what is most important to you on a daily basis. You can take your time, all of the time you need, to work on any project that can bring your hopes, dreams, wishes and future goals into your reality. Social groups are highlighted for you this month. Your desire to be around like minded people brings you new opportunities. The Full Moon energy in Sagittarius on May 23rd can bring a new job opportunity your way…one that you can have fun with and truly enjoy! Be patient because this opportunity can flow your way anytime from May 23rd through the end of June. The more focused and hopeful you feel the sooner you’ll attract what you truly desire! Keep smiling Cancer! When you smile the world smiles with you!

April 2024

This may be the most challenging month for you out of the whole year! The New Moon Solar Eclipse in Aries on April 8th awakens feelings within you regarding both your home and career. You will be well aware of past hurtful experiences you have gone through in your life; desiring to heal past the emotional sounds so that you can learn to trust others and feel more confident. Some experiences in your past may have made you feel that you weren’t good enough (regarding your childhood and/or you career) when actually you’re truly wonderful at anything that you choose to put your mind on doing. Now comes a time – from April 8th through the New Moon in Taurus on May 7th – for you to give yourself the confident credit that you wish everyone else would give to you. Stand tall, Smile, and know that how you ‘choose’ to feel (at any given moment) is exactly how you’re life will continue to flow. If you’re feeling upset for some reason, but don’t choose to be, then focus your attention upon something uplifting! As you practice doing this you will begin to see that you truly are the creator of your own destiny!

March 2024

You could be feeling more emotionally sensitive this month while the Sun moves through the sign of Pisces. You’re desire to help and serve others is noble, but make sure that you take good care of yourself too. This is an excellent month to go on a fun journey. You may take a trip to somewhere you have always wanted to go or you may spend more time daydreaming about places by the sea. Your romantic and poetic side of you is shining through. Artists of all types will benefit from this energy. When it comes to your romantic life you are a dedicated person indeed! You will always try to make the best of situations, even when you may desire to throw in the towel and leave! Hang in there Cancer…the people in your life do love you! Single Cancerians can meet some nice new people this month, and yet you may set your boundaries tight where it comes to actually getting involved with someone new. You want to make sure that whoever you date definitely has your best interests at heart first.

February 2024

Try to be more patient with yourself and the people in your life. Everyone is going through their own changes and struggles. You might not care because you’re going through your own, but the understanding that you give to others can return to you 10 fold. As Pluto moves into the sign of Aquarius this month it’s important for you to try to be a little more frugal with your money. A penny saved is a penny earned. The more you try to start saving your pennies now, the more you will have them when you really need them in the future.

January 2024

Where the Moon goes you’re attention flows…and so do your moods. When you’re on a good mood everything flows nicely, and when you’re not…watch out! We start this year off right with the Moon in solution-orientated Virgo which puts you in the mood to organize your life this year! You desire to have good health, wealth and happiness is more important to you now than ever before You’re determined now to create the security in your life that feels best for you and your loved ones. Your personal success is important to you because you know that when you are successful you will be able to help others to become successful too. With a good attitude like this you’re on your way towards having a very happy and productive 2024. The New Moon in Capricorn on January 11th opens a new portal of energy within your most important relationships. The cooperation and dedication that you desire is coming your way. What, and whom, you place your positive attention upon will be worth the nurturing efforts you give towards creating these improvements. Your own energy and good attitude can help to transform the lives of the people around you. The main lesson you’re learning is to become a best friend to yourself, in healthy ways, without neglecting, nor expecting, those who need you to step out of your way. It’s very important to consider the well-being of those you love before you start making plans where they may feel neglected (this is especially true where children are involved). It’s perfectly okay to have big dreams and make stable plans for your future on how you can create them where it’s a win;/win situation for everyone. Your focus will shift towards increasing your personal income, and having more cooperation within joint financial situations, when both the Sun and Pluto move into the sign of Aquarius on January 20th. From this point of time onwards feeling secure with the financial aspects of your life will become even more important. The key to your success with this is to have your finances organized. Know exactly what you are earning and how much you have to pay out each month. Put some away for a rainy day so that you feel as secure as you can from now on. Those old days of buying on impulse will be replace4d by feeling more joy through saving. The more you can watch your savings account grow…the happier and wealthier you will feel AND, even more importantly, the more you will attract opportunities to increase your income! It’s a special little magic touch you will have of attracting more money by having the self-discipline to save for your future. On January 25th the Full Moon in Leo arrives at 12:54 pm est. The Leo Full Moon shines her bright light into the area of your life that represents your personal values and income! Focus your attention on what you feel most grateful for. It’s time for you to work smarter, not harder, by valuing the time that you put into your work and truly valuing the value of the dollars you earn. Every area of your life can improve for you Cancer, starting right here in this month of January 2024.

December 2023

This can be an excellent month for you if you can stay focused on planning your daily agenda well. Every 2 1/2 days the Moon moves into a different sign; which then changes your moods in focus with the sign that the Moon is in. You start this month out right with the Moon in your sign of Cancer, which blesses you all month long in focusing on what’s best for your life and with your family. Close relationships are important to you. You should have a strong desire to improve yourself so that you feel healthier and more positively energetic towards taking good care of your loved ones too. The New Moon in Sagittarius on December 12th can give you the confidence and boost of new energy to better take care of your daily tasks and your personal health agendas. By doing well in this area of your life you can bring more abundance into other areas more easily. It may take a bit of self-discipline, but once you get yourself into a healthy routine then situations will become much easier. Mercury in retrograde motion this month can cause a bit of confusion where your most personal relationships are concerned. You may find that the people in your life seem more fickle and unsure of themselves, what they want, from minute to minute. Try not to let this frustrate you. Observe, don’t absorb. Let them figure out what they desire most, then once they do then they can come tell you about it. It’s not your job to please everyone all of the time. Try to avoid arguments by listening to what others have to say and not trying to change them if they don’t want to change. Very important that you don’t take other’s attitudes, words, actions too personally. What they say and do doesn’t define who you are. They can have a negative attitude one minute then totally be different the next. Again, practice observing and not absorbing so that you can keep your own emotional balance no matter what’s going on. The most challenging day may be on December 22nd when the Sun joins with Mercury retrograde. You may find yourself and others around you feeling a bit more mentally disorientated. This too will pass. Think of it as a mental healing release for yourself and everyone else. On Christmas Eve the Moon will be in Sociable Gemini. On Christmas Day the Moon shifts into chatty Gemini (ruled by Mercury, which is in retrograde motion = use your words kindly or don’t say anything at all). Getting upset and yelling on this day won’t accomplish anything. In fact that would just ruin a chance to create good memories. Stay calm, stay focused on how you desire this wonderful day to be for yourself and your family. A loving good attitude can make all the difference. Try to focus on others and not on yourself so much. On Tuesday December 26th the Full Moon in Cancer arrives at 7:33 pm ET which can help you to feel more emotionally enlightened (as long as you’re not feeling sorry for yourself for some reason). It’s this Full Moon in Cancer energy which can heighten your emotions regarding yourself and the direction of your life that you feel you’re life is heading towards. You CAN celebrate yourself and your life in many appreciative ways. It’s a wise Cancer Sun sign indeed who can focus on feelings of appreciation and gratitude rather than on feelings of lack over anything. What you focus on most, especially emotionally, is exactly what you will receive more of in your near future! What do you desire to attract more of into your life Cancer? Whatever that is try to feel that you have exactly what you desire right now! How does that feel for you? Focus on inner peace, joy, abundance, and most of all love! As the New Year arrives you will be ready to say “Good-bye 2023 and Hello 2024!”

November 2023

Now that Saturn has gone direct you can put your efforts towards learning any new topics that are of interest to you. The topics you study can bring you personal success within your life and your career too. The New Moon in Scorpio on November 13th enhances your creative abilities! “If you can conceive it and you believe it you most certainly can achieve it!” This is your motto for the next 6 months Cancer! Keep your ideas flowing! Your energy can be more focused on the topics of children (your own and others), entertainment of all kinds, as well as on romance. If it’s fun you’ll do it! If it’s work you’ll do it too, especially if you can put some fun into doing it all too. Turn up the music and sing! Your enthusiasm in contagious! Others around you will want to join in! You’ll receive more cooperation with a fun-loving attitude. For you, right now, laughter is the spice of life! Laughter is good medicine for you and everyone around you! Even if others around you are in a concerned worried mood…you can turn their frown into a smile with your “Come on, you can do it!” attitude. As the Sun, Mercury, and Mars all move into the sign of Sagittarius later in the month your focus will shift towards living your life in a healthier and more jubilant manner. The Full Moon in Gemini on November 27th will give you the ability to sit back, rest, and count your blessings. You’ve gone through a lot of changes in your life over the past 6 months. Now comes the time to really give Thanks for everything you’ve obtained and for everything you’ve overcome. Give yourself credit dear Cancer! Others around you are utterly grateful for your compassion and kindness. Now comes an important time for you to begin to take good care of yourself as much as you naturally care for others.

October 2023

What seems to start off as a frustrating tense month actually turns around in your favor. The New Moon/Solar Eclipse in Libra (October 14th) brings home and family situations to your attention. How do you choose to transform them for the highest good of everyone concerned? Once you have some creative ideas flowing then the portal of opportunity opens for you. The Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse in Taurus (October 28th) can make you emotionally aware of what your hopes, dreams, wishes, and goals are. Try not to get impatient, with yourself nor others, if you feel frustrated because you’ve felt held back in the past from actually being able to obtain what it is that you actually want. Instead a better attitude is in understanding that your moods create your magnetism! If you truly desire to attract into your life what you want so badly then choose the exact mood and attitude to match that vibration! “Believe…then Receive” without moody doubts getting in your way and causing a delay. It’s time to get creative Cancer! Choose your attitudes and moods wisely!

July through September 2023

For those of you who desire personal sessions I am still available to do those for you. Just email me at: Michelle@astroenlightenment.com to set up your appointment. Blessings and Love! Michelle

June 2023

You are so highly sensitive to the vibrations from the Moon that every 2 1/2 days you may notice your feelings shifting with the different zodiac signs that the Moon moves through. Also too, you will notice your feelings becoming more heightened when the Moon is growing in light (waxing) towards the Full Moon. You should feel calmer, more care-free, when the Moon is growing denser in light (waning) towards the New Moon. For this month of June we start out with a Full Moon on June 3rd in the sign of Sagittarius which can help you ‘release’, and then begin to heal, any emotional and/or physical ailments you’ve been feeling. From that point of time onwards the Moon will be waning (slowly growing denser in light) towards the New Moon in Gemini on Sunday June 18th at 12:37 am. During the waning process (June 4th through June 18th) no matter who or what is getting on your nerves you will either desire to run away from that situation or just ignore it completely. Once the New Moon in Gemini arrives you should feel quite peaceful, at least for this morning. enjoy the peace while it lasts. You may even desire to stay in bed longer and pamper yourself on this day – and for the couple days following – because the Moon will have moved into your sign of Cancer on June 18th at 6:58 am. This is a really great time to take good care of yourself and focus on what’s most important to you. Now the Moon begins to slowly, oh so slowly, grow brighter in light for the rest of this month. On June 23rd the Sun moves into your sign! Happy Solar Return to the Cancer people! It’s your time to feel renewed and allow your internal energy to SHINE for the next 4 weeks! Start contemplating on what you desire ‘most’ in your life. Peace, Calm, Happiness, Comfort and Financial Security should be at the top of your list. The more that you focus on what you desire the more your Solar energy can attract these feelings and experiences into your life! It’s perfectly okay for you to climb out of your protective crab shell and enjoy the sunshine! Anyone who annoys you while you’re enjoying your life will have to wait for another time to receive your attention. You have better things to think about now. Anyone who is genuinely kind towards you will be blessed 10 fold; for you won’t mind giving your attention to the people in your life who respect you and desire you to be happy! Your loving attention is very nurturing. They appreciate you for that!

May 2023

Eclipse season was challenging for everyone, but especially for you because your ruling planet is the Moon. Eclipse season began with the New Moon in Aries/Solar Eclipse on April 20th, then the beautiful Moon grew in light towards the Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio on May 5th. It was during this time, and 2 weeks before and after, that we are technically IN Eclipse Season; a time of releasing, healing, forgiving…and for Cancer’s you were asked to become more aware of how your ‘hopes, dreams, wishes and goals were in alignment, or not, with what you truly desire. You were being asked to ‘let go’ – yes even reluctantly – to people, places, and things that no longer serve your higher life purpose. Relationships and personal projects may have been fraught with many highs and lows, but will improve as this eclipse season passes when the New Moon in Taurus arrives on May 19th at 11:53 am EDT. It’s at this time, under the New Moon in Taurus, that you can refocus your attention on your grandest hopes, dreams, wishes and future goals without past doubts getting in your way. You can think of this eclipse season as a grand healing season for your emotions. Some Cancer people I know went through a variety of losses within their relationships (separations, divorces, and even an unexpected tragic death). If you went through any of those please know that you are being sent much healing energy and love. If your life wasn’t that tragic, but you were just uncertain and frustrated within any of your relationships, that time of frustration is passing now. The Taurus energies of the Sun, Part of Fortune, Mercury, Uranus, North Node, and yes even benevolent Jupiter starting on May 25th, are all highlighting a happier future for you. You’ve gone through the hardest most challenging part of this spring season! Get ready for much good fortune to come your way in the very near future! What do you desire most Cancer? Make yourself a special list! The New Moon in Taurus is sure to bring you positive experiences. Side note, regarding eclipse season: If your relationships went through a challenging phase but you stuck it out together then you will see your current relationships bloom even nicer; with much love, kindness, friendship, cooperation, support and happiness. It’s truly time to celebrate those who are closest to you who bring great joy to your heart!

April 2023

Where the Moon goes your emotions flow! We start this month of April off with the waxing Moon (growing brighter in light) towards the Full Moon in beautiful Libra on April 6th. This Full Moon in Libra shines her bright light into the area of your life that represents your home and family, your roots, your ancestors, those closest to you. With an attitude of gratitude for your loving relationships you will feel truly blessed. On April 11th Venus moves into the sign of Gemini, which may make you feel a bit more verbally introverted, maybe even a bit shy, but there’s really no need for you to be because you are beautiful Cancer (even though you may not realize it). It’s important for you to learn how to stop any self-criticism you may have towards yourself. When you allow your true soul-self to shine through you are more beautiful than you realize. Try not to hide who you truly are under a bushel barrel. The best thing you can ever wear is a smile! People won’t remember what clothes you wore nor how you did your hair, but they will remember you very well if you were happy and smiling! Some of you Cancers are looking for new, better, best job/career opportunities that can flow your way when the Sun joins together with Jupiter on April 11th! A new portal of opportunity is opening for you. Will you have the confidence you need to say “Yes!” to new opportunities? On April 20th there is a special 2nd, yes 2nd, New Moon in the sign of Aries (the 1st one was on March 21st) at 12:13 a.m. EDT; which is extra special because it is also a Solar Eclipse! This New Moon/Solar Eclipse energy gives you a 2nd chance to think about your job/career and all of the new types of experiences you desire to have within it! Make yourself a creative wish list Cancer. Keep adding to it! How do you desire your life to transform in ways that can help you to feel creative and financially abundant? at 12:30 a.m. EDT the Moon moves into the sign of Taurus. Also on April 20th the Sun will move into the sign of Taurus at 4:14 a.m. EDT which brings much Solar Energy to help you bring your grandest ‘hopes, dreams, wishes and goals’ to your reality over the next 4 weeks. There is much grounded Earth energy available to you now so that you can feel more grounded, motivated, and ready to more easily enjoy your life. The only bit of frustration you may feel is when Mercury moves into retrograde motion on April 21st through May 14th, when you may second guess your choices and decisions, or maybe even feel a bit forgetful. It’s okay, this is a passing phase that is teaching you to ‘write down’ what you desire (make those to-do lists) so that you don’t keep too much information in your mind. There is an easier way, just write down what is most important…then allow your mind to relax and have more time to feel more creatively inspired!

March 2023

You need to turn that frown upside down and learn how to SMILE again! “No worries no hurries…no dramas no traumas” should be your affirmation. Now that the sun is in your fellow water sign of Pisces situations can become calmer. Your higher mind is being creatively stimulated towards learning new enjoyable things and putting your own creative talents into action. You may be feeling more introverted until Mars moves into your sign on March 25th, which is perfectly okay. You are allowed to spend plenty of time alone so that you can recharge and rejuvenate your internal energy. But know too that this is an excellent month for you to focus upon your work and career. Energy from Jupiter and Venus in Aries are bringing much good fortune to you in this area of your life. On March 20th the Sun will move into Aries joining this team. The following day on the 21st the New Moon will arrive in Aries asking you the ultimate question, “What new beginnings would you like to create within both your home and life and your career?” When you search your heart and find the answer you will be planting seeds of success for your future; which is really good news for all Cancer people. Before then though the Full Moon in Virgo arrives on March 7th at 7:40 AM ET shining her bright light into the communication sector of your life. You can expect to be busy communicating with others. Also on this same day, a little less than an hour later at 8:35 AM ET Saturn will gently move into the sign of Pisces for the next 2 1/2 years. Saturn in Pisces asks you, “What new subjects would you like to learn? Are you ready to put some dedication into your studies?” Some of these subjects may be learning a different language, traveling, photography, the mysteries of life, spirituality and yes even astronomy and astrology! Any topics you FEEL passionate about are the right topics of study for you for the next 2 1/2 years. On March 20th the Sun moves into the sign of Aries, the following day on the 21st the New Moon in Aries arrives at 1:23 PM ET. The sign of Aries can help you to feel more adventurous and optimistic once again. Aries is the perfect sign to help you to plant seeds of success for your future. What new things would you like to try? What new projects would you like to begin? On March 23rd the planet Pluto will temporarily moves into the sign of Aquarius until June 11th; which will give you a preview of important changes you can create pertaining to joint finances, loans, other people’s money, inheritances and personal issues like romance and sexuality. Cooperation, balance, contracts and loving support are all highlighted for you until May 1st when Pluto retrogrades back into the sign of Capricorn for the rest of this year. The most important aspect for you, the one that you are looking forward to the most, is when Mars (planet of energy) moves into your sign starting on March 25th! Now it’s time to feel rejuvenated again. Now it’s time to get up, get dressed, stretch and know that the energy you’ve been needing has returned to you. You may find that your moods change with the sign and phase that the Moon is in, but that’s nothing new because you always feel this way. With Mars in your sign you’ll just feel the changes that much more! Be wise Cancer and get yourself a good Moon sign Calendar so that you can tune in to the best vibrations on any given day.

February 2023

You are one of the most sensitive signs of the zodiac Cancer. You can’t help but FEEL what is going on within yourself and within everyone else around you. Your desire to keep the peace and create beautiful harmony, within yourself and with the people you love, is exceptionally strong this month. Doing this doesn’t have to feel very challenging once you understand that your loving guidance is what others appreciate and enjoy. When you desire to have fun, play, and are really in a good mood, then others around you really desire to play along with you! When you’re feeling in a mad crabby mood you can easily climb in your shell and not want to be disturbed. This isn’t a bad thing. You need quality time to rejuvenate your internal energy. You deserve that. But remember that the people who adore you are looking forward to you coming out of your shell so that they can enjoy your happy creative inspiring temperment (that you naturally have). The kindness that you bestow upon others will return to you 10 fold. The worries that you have will diminish once the Sun moves into the sign of Pisces on February 18th. On February 20th the New Moon in Pisces arrives, which will stimulate your higher creative mind! For the next 4 weeks you can begin to feel better and better! When challenges arrive, and they always do, you will be in a much better mood to handle those more easily. Give yourself credit for everything you’ve been through Cancer. It’s not easy trying so hard to do your best for yourself and everyone you love. Know too that you DO have it within you to positively transform the lives of those around you. When you take some quality time to nurture yourself then you’re more able to nurture others. If you desire to turn others frowns into a smile, first take a few minutes to focus on something that helps you to smile yourself! You have this gift. You have this talent! Each day ask yourself, “Do I choose to spend more time in my crabby shell or do I choose to climb out of it and share my loving and inspiring energy with others?” Whichever path you choose doesn’t define you, but you will know – each day – what you desire to choose. You may have thought, in the past, that your moods were determined BY the attitudes of those around you (and you were just maintaining your own moods depending on how others act). But now you are learning, oh so wisely, that your attitudes and moods are your own. No one can make you feel anything, unless you allow it. This month of February, especially during Pisces season, can help you to turn your own frown into a smile again!

January 2023

The Full Moon energy in Cancer on January 6th is giving you loving credit for you just being YOU! With both Mars and Mercury in retrograde motion you can allow yourself to rest and play more often. There is a lull in energy right now that is giving you time to heal and recover from any ailments and stressful situations that you have gone through in your past. Good fortune is with you Cancer. Everything is fine if you allow it to be. Mars will go back into direct motion on January 12th, then slowly oh so slowly, Mars will give you back the motivation energy you desire. Try to be extra patient though. Mars won’t be back into full-swing forward motion until mid-March. Mercury retrograde in Capricorn can have you feeling like your brakes are on. You desire cooperation and progress, but the energy is so slow. Everyone everywhere is feeling quite sluggish. You don’t necessarily need to be crabby too. Don’t blame yourself, or think that something is wrong with you, if you are feeling crabby. Tis the season and the vibrations going on right now that may have you feeling a bit under the weather. Mercury moves back into direct motion on January 18th. Your mind will begin to feel a bit clearer. Once the New Moon in Aquarius arrives on January 21st you should begin to receive more cooperation. If it’s a helping hand you need just ask. If others need a helping hand you will be there for them too. Sharing, caring, understanding, empathy and compassion are very important for you from others, and to others from you, all month long.

December 2022

Where the Moon goes your heart flows! It’s a wise Cancerian who keeps their eyes on a good Moon Calendar to know what phase and sign that the Moon is in on any given day. The Moon grows brighter until December 7th when we will experience the Full Moon in Gemini. This Full Moon is joined together with Mars (Energy) in retrograde motion. Put this altogether for you and you might be quite wired, tired and cranky! Mars began it’s retrograde motion in the area of your life that represents solitude, your bedroom, comfort spaces, feeling introverted (yet creatively talking to yourself a lot, which can bring inspiration), and being able to creatively do your best work while you’re not being disturbed by anyone. On the upside this Mars retrograde can bring you an abundance of inspiration! On the downside you can expect yourself to need ‘a lot’ more rest and rejuvenation! This is a passing phase that will go direct again on January 12th; but not be back in full swing motion until Mid-March. Take it slow, be extra good to yourself. Try not to be too cranky upon those you love the most. You could easily get short-tempered if you’re feeling tired. Just let everyone know around you, “Hey everyone, Mars is retrograde so behave or I’ll get extra cranky right now!” Lol! #Truth! You’re learning 2 important lessons with the vibrations going on now and into the New Year. You are learning: 1) How to take better care of yourself so that you can feel healthier and happier (yes cat naps are important). 2) Allowing your creative inspiration to flow through without feeling that you have to do what you’re inspired to do asap. Keep a notebook near you and write down your ideas then proceed upon them when you’re feeling more energetic. From the Full Moon in Gemini time to the New Moon in Capricorn the Moon will be waning, growing smaller, thus your emotions won’t feel so heightened. The New Moon in Capricorn arrives on December 23rd at 5:17 AM ET. For this whole day your main focus should be on renewing your most intimate relationships. Shower your appreciation upon those you love. Your kindness, friendship, dedication and love will pay off 10 fold! December 25th, Christmas, the vibrations are lovely for everyone under the brighter Moon in Aquarius! Allow humor, friendship and ingenuity to be part of the day. It’s time to put work away and play! Next up on the agenda is when Mercury goes retrograde (December 29th-January 18th). Try to avoid misunderstandings, try not to take things too personally, try to be patient, and try to be understanding of the feelings of others during this phase of time. All in all this can be a good month for you Cancer. Keep your creativity flowing, take good care of yourself, get plenty of rest (don’t forget the cat naps), eat well, have fun and play!

November 2022

You’re one of the lucky signs this month with the Sun, Venus and Mercury in Scorpio flowing nicely through the area of your life that represents creativity, children, enjoyment and love! What do you enjoy doing most? This certainly is the month for you to do more of it! If you do what you love and love what you do then it won’t feel like work as you’re becoming more successful! Yours is the sign that is meant to allow your creative talents to shine forth. You certainly CAN turn a fun hobby into a successful career! The key to your success is 2 fold. 1) Enjoy what you do. 2) Believe in yourself and know, without a doubt, that you are creatively talented!

On November 8th the Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse in Taurus shines her bright light into the area of your life that represents your most important ‘hopes, dreams, wishes and goals!’ You may have put a project on the backburner, or given up on doing something you used to enjoy doing, but this Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse energy desires you not to give up…not on your project and not on yourself! Again, the key ingredient you need is your fun loving passion to get ignited once again! It may take some willpower to trust in yourself enough to try again, but once you do you’ll be happy you did!

As we all move forward into Sagittarius season you’ll desire to put even more dedication towards what you enjoy doing. You are wiser now than you were before. What you put your attention towards will grow! The New Moon in Sagittarius on November 23rd will help you to begin anew in regards to your daily tasks, work situations, and with taking even better care of yourself in nutritional ways.

Pay attention to what your mind, heart, body and spirit craves to have and do. With a greater sense of compassion for self, and passion towards your tasks, you can create the positive changes you’ve been waiting to start. Go for it Cancer! Slowly but surely, with great faith and enjoyment, your life is lovingly changing in many wonderful ways.

October 2022

Mercury moves direct on October 2nd which can slowly bring you more cooperation and peace. The Full Moon in Aries on October 9th shines her bright light into the area of your life that has to do with your career, reputation and with your family legacy. Do you realize how tremendously important you are to your family? Do you realize how tremendously important your family members are to you? With an attitude of gratitude in your heart, for the people in your life who love and support you, this is an excellent time to shower your appreciation onto those you love! No matter what has happened in the past, no matter what was done or said, resentments and regrets can be forgiven now to create more loving harmony for everyone. With the Sun and Venus joined together, so beautifully, in the sector of your life that represents your home and family, you can beautify everything around you, and within you, by focusing on what, and whom, brings beauty into your life. Are you independent of love OR are you surrounded by it? Do you desire to be independent of love OR surrounded by it? These 2 important questions will either be on your mind or subconsciously coming to the surface so that you can answer these questions sincerely. When you feel that you are surrounded by love then you can easily radiate your own love out towards others. You are learning that the energy of love is the key to transforming all negativity. The energy of Mars is slowing down tremendously (gong retrograde on October 30th-January 12th 2023) which may have you feeling a bit more tired and moving through the pace of your life more slowly. This is only natural and can be a blessing when you mindfully pick and choose what to put your energy towards. It is important that you get plenty of rest and try not to rush through any important task. Take your time with all you do. Is it better to get a hundred things done in a day or just a few? The Full Moon/Solar Eclipse on October 25th in Scorpio will help you to become more aware of what enjoyment means to you. Creativity flows abundantly! Fun experiences with children can bring a huge smile to your face! Those of you with children will see their creativity bloom from this point of time onward! Have fun Cancer! There are lots of good times ahead for you.

September 2022

Communication of all sorts is highlighted for you. Your lesson this month is to stay calm, don’t lose your cool, try to avoid arguments (certainly don’t create them) and try to use your words as a gift when speaking to others. In other words….try to speak with others in the exact manner that you like being spoken to. Matters around your home and with your family may bring the most tension, especially in matters of communication. If someone around you is speaking too harshly then you may take their attitude and words very personally. Knowing this, try not to be too defensive but instead realize that whoever has a grievance as their own personal issues they are working on. Once Mercury moves back into direct motion on October 2nd then situations can become easier. In the meantime, for this month, it’s up to you to try to keep the peace by being the peacemaker in your heart and especially within your family.

August 2022

How are you feeling about yourself these days Cancer? Are you ready to say yes to new opportunities that can help you to strengthen your personal income? These opportunities can come your way, but it’s very important that you don’t let your ego get in the way. You could be asked to do a job that you feel is beneath you (or your pay grade), or possibly you feel that you’re not getting enough attention or credit for your hard work done. If that is the case you may desire to quit, or even take a long summer vacation so that you don’t have to work at all. It’s important to use your ‘mind over matter’ to create the opportunities that you desire. Whether you think you can or you think you can’t…either way you’re right. It’s up to you to be the script writer of your life. By the end of the month you may find yourself in somewhat of a pickle if your financial situation seems strained a bit. No worries, no hurries, don’t lose your cool. What you need can be obtained with the right attitude and reasoning.

July 2022

If you’ve been feeling a bit more quiet than usual that’s all about to change when Mercury moves into your sign on Tuesday July 5th at 2:38 PM EDT. With both the Sun and Mercury in your sign you should begin to feel more self-empowered and ready to chat it up with everyone! Out of your shell your crabby self will be to begin to more positively shine forth for everyone to see and hear! Bye-bye to crabby you! Hello to a much more HAPPY You! Also, on the same day, just 20 minutes earlier, Mars moved into the sign of Taurus bringing in a more serene energy. You can now think more clearly, feel more serene, and really begin to focus more positively on your most important ‘hopes, goals, wishes and dreams.’ The Full Moon in Capricorn arrives on Wednesday July 13th at 2:38 PM EDT to shine her bright loving light onto your relationships. With an attitude of gratitude you can focus your attention upon the ones you love the most. What you place your attention upon is like good fertilizer in a garden. Your most important relationships can bloom forth with a loving vibrant energy! Those you know, and those around you, will be asking what they can do for you so that you can have a happier life. Oh what a nice change that is indeed! Accept their loving assistance and cooperation. If the area of your career has been slow…but you’ve been being very patient…you’re in for a nice surprise when someone in your company gives you some extra credit. The pace of your career will be picking up, but not so fast as to overwhelm you. You’re going to start looking better and feeling better, focusing on what you desire most, when beautiful Venus moves into your sign starting on the evening of July 17th! The Sun moves into the sign of Leo on Friday July 22nd at 4:07 PM EDT; shifting your focus for the next 4 weeks on allowing yourself to feel more valued, valuable, and your personal income increases. You’re meant to have creative fun with everything you do. The more you allow yourself to enjoy your work/duties…the more good fortune you’ll receive! Can you do that? Can you value your unique skills? Of course you can, especially once the New Moon in Leo arrives on Thursday July 28th and onwards! Turn that frown upside down and get ready to SMILE Cancer! Each day of your life is a new wonderful adventure!

June 2022

All work and no playtime can make you crabby, but it’s a wise Cancerian indeed who knows when to say YES to good opportunities that come your way! You can expect wonderful opportunities to come your way this month while the energy of Mars and Jupiter as moving through the area of your life that represents your reputation in the world and your career! Mars is energy! Jupiter is expansion and good fortune! They are both in the sign of Aries which represents New Beginnings! Like a breath of fresh spring air and a nice new cool creative breeze…a new freshness flows through this area of life so the beautiful financial flowers can spring forth! How can you motivate yourself for this to happen? Give yourself credit for your personal talents through good self-confidence! Yes you can toot your own horn by advertising your services and applying for the types of jobs you’d enjoy most! You can be exceptionally successful this month, especially once Mercury moves back into direct motion on June 3rd…then baby step by baby step, on so slowly, in your own timing…towards when the Solar Power comes back into your sign on June 21st! Once the Sun is back in your sign of Cancer then it’s full steam ahead for you! The New Moon in Cancer arrives on June 28th giving you even more clarity on what it IS that you want to do. You are a sign that is meant to do what you love and love what you do…for when you do then supreme creativity flows through you! From June 1st through June 21st, you may feel a bit slower and more sluggish – but still there are tasks that need to be done. You will do then when you FEEL the urge to get them done. If you pressure yourself then you can become very crabby indeed. No one likes a crabby Cancerian! Breathe, just breathe and know that you’re life is about to turn around in your favor in the very near future! PS. July looks like a very good month for you too!

May 2022

Situations occur that may be completely out of your control. The very best that you can do is try to be supportive towards whomever needs you. You’re going through your own emotional situations. It may be difficult to pinpoint exactly what they are. In most cases you just feel emotionally off in some way that you may feel should be blamed on not getting enough sleep. These off feeling feelings are actually there to help you to focus your mind and heart upon what you DO desire to have in your life; instead of pondering on what you wish you didn’t have to deal with. Your own hopes, dreams, wishes and goals are very important. You may have been pushing those aside for the well-being of others too much. The Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse in Taurus on May 16th will begin to help you to have more clarity on what’s most important for you. As you observe others having challenges and difficulties your heart goes out to them. It’s through your kindness and communicational support that you can sincerely help. The more you’re willing to listen to others, just to be a wise observer, the more it will greatly help others to get back into a better alignment within themselves. You are greatly appreciated for that!

April 2022

The theme from last month continues to stimulate your creativity with energies from Venus, Jupiter and Neptune stimulating your higher mind. Are you ready to get down to work in a very creative way? You should feel more inspired to do so during this month of April. The Full Moon in Libra on April 16th (2:55 PM EDT) shines her bright light into the area of your life that has to do with your home and family. With an attitude of gratitude you can celebrate your comfort in your home with the ones you love. If family members live at a distance from you then this is a good evening to connect with them in a special way to keep in touch. Heart-felt love shines brightly on this evening under this Full Moon. Your next big event takes place on April 30th under the New Moon/Solar Eclipse in Taurus; which begins to highlight your hopes, dreams, wishes and goals for your future over the next few months. No matter what you thought was holding you back, even if it was just a bit of exhaustion, you will now begin to feel a new surge of energy because with clarity you’re able to know more specifically what you want. You can accomplish anything that you set your mind upon, but it has to have a bit of a creative passionate flair for you to actually participate in. Listen to your heart. Follow your inner passion towards personal success!

March 2022

Your higher creative self is coming up with all kinds of ideas on how you can enhance your life. Pay attention to the inspiration that flows your way. Some of these ideas can be profitable; both emotionally and financially. Again, try not to ‘think’ too hard, for these ideas aren’t coming from your thoughts as much as they are coming from your feelings and your higher self. Your dreams may also be quite vivid during this phase of time. Keeping a dream journal can be very beneficial to receiving clues about your life.

February 2022

New Beginnings arrive in your life starting on February 1st under the New Moon in Aquarius! If you’ve been struggling, trying to figure out new ways to be creatively inventive towards enhancing your income, then this is the month when some very surprising lucrative opportunities can come your way! If you’re in a committed relationship then it’s very possible this can happen for your significant other too! Keep your eyes and ears open for these opportunities and be ready to say “Yes” to what feels best for you. Where it comes to your love life there may have been some disagreements and/or struggles where you and your partner weren’t seeing eye to eye on a variety of issues. You can know that much learning took place, but very soon those struggles will be replaced with better communication – Mercury goes back into direct forward motion on February 3rd – and more loving snuggles from the energies of Mars and Venus being hand in hand with each other. With a clearer mind, new financial opportunities, and more loving energies flowing within you and around your life…this month of February is definitely a refreshing one for you! If you are single you could meet someone who feels to you like you’ve known that person before, somewhere at some point in time (possibly a past-lifetime) which can have you both feeling very comfortable with each other. Your sense of self-value is definitely increasing this month, which will become more emphasized under the Full Moon in Leo on February 16th. It may be easy for you to feel depressed, sometimes you don’t even want to get out of bed, but this is a month that can change all that. Opportunities await you so get up, get dressed, show up each day and you will begin to see situations definitely turning around in your favor.

January 2022

Your higher mind is yearning for new truthful information. Your faith is getting stronger that situations can turn around in your favor. You should be feeling more grounded and certain about the direction your life is heading. No matter what the challenges may seem you can conquer them. Where it comes to your love life it may seem a bit frustrating, but the person you love also loves you. Everyone is going through some moody times right now. The more you can be patient with others, the more you may find that they can be patient with you. Any health ailments that may creep into your life this month can be healed quite quickly, especially if you allow yourself some time to rest and rejuvenate. Be good to yourself Dear Cancer. Everyone around you loves you more than you realize.
