CANCER

Play by the rules

Are you ready to be CEO of you?

Be boss!

Your yearly reputation and career peak begins as the Sun arrives in your 10th. Time to consolidate that image or what you have achieved to date. Be mindful at all times of how you come across. This is your house of public image. Your rep is your calling card. Cultivate a boss one. And adjust it if need be as Mercury begins to slow in here. Bringing the retro-free period we’ve enjoyed for weeks to an end.

Surprising and freedom-enhancing news arrives which could break you free of restrictions or that rut you’ve fallen into. But there’s a caveat in that you have to work within certain boundaries. No colouring outside the lines! Opt for the tried and trusted method and don’t whatever you do, challenge people in positions of authority once Mars reaches your 9th.

Travel or an opportunity to upgrade your skills could form part of this. If that rut relates to your job and you are the square peg in a round rut – nothing is going to keep you in it for too much longer. Venus’s move to Saturn in your 9th tells you the time has come to make your move. Fantastic career opportunities beckon you which may require you to take on more responsibility or assume some kind of leadership role. Project a professional image and be seen as someone who knows what they are talking about. Those in positions of authority are taking note and liking what they see. While you may be asked to take on more, you’ll receive the rewards that go with that now. Simply play by the rules, Cancer.

In a nutshell: The way to break free of any restrictions now means opting for the tried and trusted method, Cancer. Your reputation becomes all-important this week. Be seen as someone who delivers. And who plays by the rules.

CANCER

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away . . .

Episode IV: A New Hope

Opening Crawl – Star Wars

This month is all about hope. Hope renewed. Hope and faith in your future. New hope springing from the eternal source. And yes, all things far, far away. Other countries and people. Far out concepts. Galaxies and the multiverse. Take it you have an Access All Areas pass now, Cancer.

Eclipse season heightens your senses, Cancer. You will be more attuned and your sensitivity heightened in the run-up to the eclipsed full Moon in its ruling house – your 4th, on the 25th.

First, the new Supermoon in your 9th (10th) marks the start of an eye opening learning journey for you. One that is intended to deliver freedom from restriction, permission to explore a wilder side of your being and to hand you opportunities. The latter being self-created as they are activated simply by you placing your feet upon the path that is appearing ahead of you.

Stretch yourself into a new phase of life experience. Be bold and harness your daring! There are no small moves to be made now. But giant, confident leaps. You are one of the signs set to benefit the most from the huge Pisces stellium in your 9th this March. A stellium is when there are three or more planets in a sign. Along with the Sun, you have long term tenants Saturn and Neptune in here. Mercury until the 10th, Venus arrives a day later and Mars on the 22nd. So, throughout March, even when the Sun exits here on the 20th, there will be at least three planets present. And this will last right up until the end of April when Mars finally exits.

Answering the call of far, far away includes being emboldened by the desire to discover the spiritual truth. Your 9th rules higher learning and also organised religion. While Pisces and its ruler, Neptune, rules spiritual beliefs, other realms, intuition and psychic abilities and also the past – as in past lives. And clues to our future life can also be found in this sector of your chart.

Saturn in here adds that touch of realness. And allows you to test whether what you believe has any actual basis. And also it rules karma. Take it between now and 2025 when both Saturn and Neptune exit this house, that karmic shedding will go on. You will complete one cycle and never repeat it again. In any lifetime. And that’s the biggest gift any of us can ever receive.

Far, far away presences make themselves known. And their message is one of hope. You may feel you have a guardian angel or guiding hand helping you this March. Whatever your actual beliefs around what form this takes. You feel its presence. It may speak to you via your dreams – expect colourful, deep and revelatory ones especially around the 17th when the Sun meets Neptune. Spooky synchronicities and coincides you can’t ignore. The answer to a question appearing in the form of a website or link you follow, the line a character says in a film or TV show, someone you meet handing you the missing piece of the puzzle or that book that almost falls off the shelf and into your hands. These are just a few of ways the universe may choose to deliver its message.

There will be no remaining doubt in your mind that this is the truth by the time Venus meets Saturn in here on the 21st. Don’t be fooled by the ringed planet. Yes, this is the literal ‘ring of truth’ conjunction. Where agreements can be made. Or the kind of truth that sets you free as this is your house of expansion and freedom.

But please, don’t buy into all those outdated images of Saturn as stern curmudgeon and party-pooper peddled by astrologers who don’t know better. In ancient times Saturn ruled ‘The Golden Age’. And a Saturn transit across personal planets can bring us huge rewards. Saturn is one of the teaching planets. When we take on its wisdom we get a hallpass. Into something freeing and rewarding. In this house in your chart, Saturn may communicate its wisdom to you via the methods I outlined above. So, for incredible results – put these to work!

From the 20th, the Sun is in your 10th and you will apply what you know to making changes over the next few months. You may also take stock of your progress. And look at investment vs. returns. Especially in anything you are involved in for the long term.

The eclipse in your 4th asks you slow down to tune out the static. And you may consciously be doing this as a result of looking at those long term themes. Your needs want to make themselves heard. This is of course, your all-important house of home and family. And you could well be asked to act as emotional DIY repair person. As well as needing to attend to actual repairs!

Your path, your ambitions and even someone close to you – that boss or your partner, could ne impacted. Or you may be looking again at far, far away themes due to the remaining stellium in your 9th. Are you in the right place where your heart feels it belongs? Or is somewhere else calling? Does the thought of change – of residence, job or finding another star to aim for, fill you with hope? If so, explore further.

As with all eclipses whether solar or lunar, do avoid big decisions under them. You however are in a prime position to decode eclipse mysteries and cover ups thanks again to those 9th house planets. If you are still asking, know that by April – the truth will seek you out without you having to go any further.

In a nutshell: Hope is a feeling, the fuel and the journey itself. Without it, we’d do nothing. Your reignites this month bringing you a bigger, better vision of what the future holds. And opportunity hands you a solution.

CANCER YEARLY FORECAST 2024

After many years in your house of duos, duets and double acts of all descriptions, Pluto finally exits it this year. Leaving you with a sense of the transformative power of your relationships. Now – work that love for all you’re worth, Cancer!

You begin and end this year on a love and partnership high note, Cancer. With a new Moon and Venus (23rd Jan), in your 7th house. You also have Pluto exiting your 7th and moving into its ruling 8th house from January 21st. It will make one brief retro-visit to your 7th between September and November. But then it moves into your 8th where it will remain for the next 20 years.

Unions and your needs within them will have totally transformed during this time. You should be emerging with a powerful sense of what works – and what doesn’t. What works now takes on a new depth and resonance for you. What doesn’t will be let go of. And if your relationship has well and truly been lived out, take it there is no force in the universe that will keep you in it now. There is a sense of embracing the inevitable. As well as your own power, Cancer.

You and another can come to a fresh understanding as the year begins. Or come up with a win/win deal where both of you get what you need without either of you feeling that you are the one doing all the compromising thanks to Ceres also in your 7th from February 8. Have you been a little guilty of over-nurturing someone? Has your relationship gone from lover to mother? This transit along with Pluto’s move can give you the inner power to let go and release any need to over-compensate or try to control. Allow others to make their own emotional mistakes while gently owning your own feelings. Talk through any residual feelings of hurt, resentment and guilt. Chances are the other party meets you halfway. And if so, both of you can move forward again in understanding one another’s needs and with a fresh sense of joy.

Jupiter has been shining on your goals and friendships since May last year. Along with Uranus in what is, its ruling house in your chart, your friendships are your fortune. And you co-create your fate with the people you know and meet now. If you re-check your yearly forecast for last year along with your forecast for Jupiter in Taurus, you will see I told you to make three wishes when Jupiter arrived in here. And to expect at least one of them to come true during this cycle. And that this could well be linked to someone you are connected to or who would cross your path during this time. So, how are you doing?

If you are still waiting for a wish or desire to manifest as 2024 begins, do remember that wishing isn’t enough. You have to take action to make it happen. This is the classic ‘heaven helps those who help themselves’ position for Jupiter. With Pluto now in your 8th you have what it takes, Cancer. And you have until the end of May when Jupiter shifts into Gemini and your 12th, to bring about those results.

If you have seen a goal or even more than one manifest, continue to set new ones right up until Jupiter’s shift. And don’t be a hermit whatever you do. Be a joiner, a networker, a connector. And be authentic with it. This new cycle is all about fearlessly being you. And attracting people on your special wavelength.

Saturn and Neptune continue to move through your 9th house of travel, learning, expansion and freedom. What this tells you is there is no running away from reality. Freedom is found by being present where you are and working with what you already have. There is no running away. ‘Wherever you go – there you are’ to quote Buckaroo Banzai. The more real you get and the more prepared you are to deal with what’s going on, the faster those barriers disappear.

This year’s eclipse cycle continues to revolve around your path and purpose. Your life direction, place and career. The first eclipse occurs March 25 in Libra and your 4th. This is a Penumbral Lunar Eclipse and in the Moon’s ruling house. Stirring up deep emotions that you may not have been aware were bubbling below the surface. Unlike the next eclipse which happens at the time of the new Moon in Aries and your 10th on April 8 which is a total eclipse, you are not utterly in the dark with the March one. Chances are the feelings have been building around what emerges. But you may have brushed them aside. It’s how strongly you do in fact feel, that comes as the surprise, Cancer!

Between this and the Great North American Eclipse in your 10th on April 8, you’ll confront the source of these emotions. Asking yourself what it is that you really want and also what will truly satisfy you? In terms of your emotional structure and also your career and the rewards and recognition you’re seeking. Take it that this may be an all-encompassing process where the answers take time to emerge. So – please don’t rush it.

Like the Leos next door, eclipses impact on you the most as they always involve your ruler. The super-sensitives amongst you will feel the energy of the second eclipse build up to two weeks beforehand. Try to steer clear of making major decisions around home, living arrangements, family matters and your work around these eclipses. And do keep in mind that due to the total blackout and intensity of the April 8 eclipse, your intuition may not be fully up and running again until Jupiter enters your 12th house on May 25. Wait for more information to emerge. And don’t doubt it will arrive.

2024 is certain to lift past limitations for you however. And do also keep in mind once Pluto and Jupiter have made their shifts, a higher power is at work for you. If something doesn’t work out the way you hoped it would – anything from that job to that relationship, try to see the bigger picture. What I can tell you is that at some point in the next 12 months you will see this was in fact, a blessing in disguise even if it felt like a setback at the time.

You’re setting yourself a new agenda and a fresh set of priorities during this birthday cycle. Venus (17th June) showers you with allure and that attraction factor as it arrives just before the Sun (21st June). But you’re not about to accept just anything you draw into your orbit, Cancer. Work your right to choose. This birthday season boosts your creative, psychic or imaginative projects and fills you with inspired potential when it comes to what you can now achieve in the year ahead of you. Above all, it asks you shed some aspect of your old self and allow a new one to emerge.

If you have felt trapped by unhealthy dynamics in relationships – control, manipulation, domination, gas lighting – this new cycle shows you that you have the power to change this. In fact, you have the primal power of creation available to you when it comes to your material goals as well. Do follow those hunches and your insight here as Jupiter in your 12th acts like an angel on your shoulder.

Nothing superficial will do now. This goes for romance. Yes, as October and November roll round you are at your most light-hearted and flirtatious. But to last, love has to get past the glitter and reveal itself as something more substantial. You will also be off in hot pursuit of that passion in the form of a pastime, activity or hobby you love to engage in now. Self-expression and showing off is allowed. In fact, see this period as time to shine and sparkle. Good news may arrive around a pregnancy, child (yours or another’s), or even a lucky break.

Next year will see the Nodal Axis shift from your 4th/10th houses to your 3rd/9th. Ahead of this happening, we always see a lunar eclipse occur on the new axis. And this happens at the time of the full Supermoon in Pisces (9th), on Sept 18. Take it this brings you a preview around what fate and 2024 have in store for you around the internet, writing, publishing, the mass media, travel, foreigners, study, the law and those big dreams. If travelling especially overseas now, there is something you don’t yet know about the journey or the destination. Check your arrangements and your Tarot cards for more.

The final eclipse of ‘24 occurs in Libra and your 10th on October 2. Watch and wait now, Cancer as you need to bring your mind and your feelings into alignment before making any decisions. Balance between the two will be needed. You cannot afford to allow one to over-rule the other. This is an Annular Solar Eclipse – the kind that delivers that ‘Ring of Fire’ effect. A ‘ring of truth’ but not the bigger picture. This occurs just days after the Sun and North Node meet in your 4th. A new fated path lies ahead of you. But the way forward is not yet totally clear. If you are undecided or literally ‘swinging’ between one decision and another, your best tactic is not to make one at this time. Take it the correct choice will reveal itself.

Double your pleasure as you end the year with Venus back in your 7th. You should be surrounded at the very least with star quality and an unusually strong ability to attract. Others are simply basking

in the sweet aura of success. However, do resist the urge to go overboard with spending as we see the year out. Pluto has given you sovereignty over your cash and other assets. And this feeling will only increase in the coming year. Don’t lose that as Mars will make a rare retrograde in Leo and your money zone from December 6. Yes, you want to share your love for others. But do ask yourself how you can shower them with this in other ways than simply expensive gifts, Cancer. Yes, you may well be ending the year cashed up and can afford to be generous. But choose the recipients of this with care. The same goes for whom you give your love, time and talents to.

You have been looking at how you are recognised and rewarded in your career this year. Now look to how this is demonstrated in your relationships. Next year sees Jupiter arrive in your sign. Is it time to big up those expectations ahead of this? You have the power to create – and the power to receive, Cancer. Ensure you work this for what you’re worth.

In a nutshell: Pluto finally flies free of your partnership sector. And you’ve a new take on relationships as well as embracing your own power, Cancer! Career and family matters move you in a fresh and more satisfying direction. While goals continue to revolve around just who you know.
