CANCER

Embrace soul-centered sensuality

Ask and you shall receive your answer

Freedom follows a change in perspective

Miraculous insights, mysterious truths and shining jewels of sensuality all combine to bring your birthday cycle to a close, Cancer. Something major shifts as a result of all this. It’s not often you get two full Moons in a birthday cycle like you experienced this year. And ever rarer still is one where you have Mars and Jupiter together in your soul-centered 12th. The result is nothing you need to know can be kept from you. And the truth of that changes everything and sets you free.

This can be as simple as appreciating your sexuality in a new way. Or as profound as reframing something in such a way it changes what you do next. Yes, you can thank Mars and Jupiter in your 12th for this. And the trine Mars makes to Pluto in your 8th as well as the Sun aligned to Neptune in your 9th all on the same day (22nd).

Soul-worthy moves will be made as a result. And fresh opportunities light your path offering exactly this as the Sun moves into your 2nd. It’s opposition to Pluto opens a vault of resources which you now have at your disposal. Anything from the truth to actual moolah. Venus is also in residence in what is its ruling house. A new avenue of revenue could be on offer as it aligns to Vesta. That devotion to your skills, talents or a particular path could now reward you. Seal the deal or embrace that feeling of having more. Sometimes that rich feeling and knowing glow simply comes from tapping into your own empowerment, Cancer.

In a nutshell: Divine illumination strikes you this week. And after that – you never see something in the same way again. This goes hand-in-hand with revelling in sensuality – with a massive side-order of self-worth.

CANCER

Enlighten your life!

Once in a Blue Moon love strikes

Happy new YOU

Your extra special, startlingly sweet new Moon ushers in the start of your astrological new year on the 5th. Begin again, Cancer. But this time – do it different. Look to an area you know needs renovation or simply you owning the fact you have allowed a key and important personal need to go unrecognised for far too long.

What you recommit to or the changes you set in motion carry you forward and that momentum is going to take you a long way now. This is down to you accessing the staying power of Saturn in your freedom sector.

The time period right up until the Sun’s exit of your 1st (22nd) is pitch perfect for new plans, reclaiming those you regret letting go of, and a personal relaunch. This is also a new Moon of secret, special invitation previews of what could possibly be for your future. It sets the scene, the intention and opens a portal of possibilities that will occur from your birthday season next year when Jupiter will be in your sign. So, when you are contemplating what it is you wish to manifest – think big and think beyond the confines of this year, Cancer!

Jupiter now in your 12th increases your natural intuitive and creative abilities. It’s a time for you for enlightenment – and by that I don’t just mean revelations – but lightening your life by healing from past wounds and letting go of what holds you back. The more you do this the more magnetic and freer you become. And you’ll quickly see how the world sits up and takes notice of you as a result. This is after all, your main attraction cycle of the year. And confidence is the key to getting the most from this. Which flows uninhibited once you shed those layers from your past.

This month also sees Mars bamboozle its way into your 12th house of spirituality and secrets. Expect a few revelations. And also checks and balances as well. When it comes to checks – resist the impulse to react right away. Or fly off the handle. Count to at least 3 – hundred – if you can. It may be that you need to sit with something and examine this from a long term perspective. Has it been going on for a while? Do you want it to continue like this? And most importantly – have you been ignoring your intuition? The answers you give will determine your action. And the right level of response. Avoid the heat of the moment if you can. Especially with partners and loved ones at the time of the full ‘Blue’ Moon in your 7th. This is a rare event. This appears the day after Mars’s arrival in your 12th (21st). If there is something on your mind you need to address, tackle it BEFORE the full Moon and avoid the fall-out!

You need to know where a relationship stands and for partners (or potential partners) to be able to supply that reassurance. There’s nothing wrong in asking or putting someone on the spot. But do know the ability to get what we want in any area always begins with being very clear about what that is in the first place. So, do use this repeat energy to clarify this in your own mind, Cancer. And to be comfortable with this.

As the planets move into your 2nd, they can deliver powerful and monumental shifts around your money, assets, home, investments and income. Especially joint resources. Gains can be made. And it may not just be material increase that is the change you’ve been hoping for. Combined with Jupiter’s background healing dynamic, the oppositions the planets make to Pluto in your 8th as they leave your sign, bring about a much-needed transformation in how you see and value yourself. I told you that others would take notice as you became more aligned to your present and unburdened of your past. Any shifts within you translate quickly into changes in your outer circumstances. And also in how others perceive you.

Look to the 3rd, 12th and 23rd for tangible proof this process is in motion for you as these are the dates when first Mercury, then Venus and finally the Sun oppose Pluto.

Keep in mind the upcoming Mercury retro of next month. Especially when it comes to love and money, Cancer. Avoid impulse buying from the 17th when Mercury begins retroshadow. There may well be gains but why not hold on to any for now? As Mercury slows down, take your time to look at whether you need something – or simply feel you want it! The same goes for love, Cancer. Your magnetism attracts. But see this as putting you in the position where you get to choose. And take your time with that choice.

Surprise encounters could see some of you ditch that type or change your criteria by the end of July. Or thanks to Pluto’s work in your 7th you recognise your needs have changed – and make a different choice based on this awareness. Heading into August expect your energy and stunning zest for life to remain high. That’s what true enlightenment is all about – the ability to live it, Cancer!

In a nutshell: Once in a Blue moon opportunities surround you in love this July. The new Moon in your sign on the 3rd marks the astrological start of your yearly cycle. Time to lighten you life by shedding what dulls that glow, Cancer.

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.
