Cancer

Born between: June 21st - July 22nd

Supportive and encouraging those born under the Cancer sign are lovers that strive in the home setting. Traditional in their beliefs they are often conservative although they value unaccompanied time, greatly.

You're in a very sober and reflective mood today, and it will affect your emotions. As a result, you won't be nearly as demonstrative or loving as usual, which may make certain people wonder what's going on. If they seem to be hurt by your current attitude it's only kind to tell them how you feel, otherwise they'll wonder if they've done something wrong or whether you're going off them.
 
The next two weeks will present you with some interesting problems concerning your morals and beliefs. You'll be faced with a difficult question that can't be resolved as easily as you might at first imagine, and you may even have to do some soul-searching before you can come up with a satisfactory solution.
 
The atmosphere is rather fraught today, which could soon lead to a ding-dong with someone. The vexed questions of money and sex are especially likely to make the fur fly, so mention them at your peril. If you aren't the one who wants to pick a fight it will be your other half, and they'll be like a terrier with a bone. Do you honestly have the energy for it?
 
Your Cancerian intuition is working well today, particularly when thinking about a close partner. You might instinctively know that they're about to phone you, or you have such an intense dream about them that you can't stop thinking about them when you wake up. It's a day for following your gut feelings and you may be getting a strong hunch about this person.
 
Introduce plenty of variety into your day, otherwise life will start to take on a rather stale and sluggish quality. Once this happens you'll do almost anything to liven things up again, which might mean stirring up trouble. It will be far better to skip your usual routine and have a change of scene, preferably involving some exercise so you can burn up any excess nervous energy.
 
A certain person is never far from your thoughts today, and after a while you'll long to see them. If they live a long way away, you'll have a tendency to dream about them or to look through old photos so you can see their face. If they're close by, you'll want to get together with them and could get quite huffy if they aren't available or they've got other fish to fry. Take it easy!
 
Ideally, you should get all dressed up and then head for the nearest social event because that's exactly what you're in the mood for today. You're feeling very convivial and outgoing, whether you're with people that you know like the back of your hand or total strangers. If you've recently moved house, you might meet one of your new neighbours and quickly turn them into a friend.
 
If you're a typical Cancerian you have a very big heart and it's much in evidence today. You might decide to tuck someone under your wing or give them a hug because you know they're going through a bad time. You're also prepared to listen to their tale of woe without taking sides or giving them unsolicited advice, and they'll be everlastingly grateful to you.
 
Let's face it, you could talk the hind leg off a donkey or the ears off your best friend today. You've got plenty to say and you'll jump at the chance to get it off your chest. You may have a burning desire to impart some fascinating news, but try not to hog the conversation completely so that everyone else has no choice but to listen or to walk away. If you aren't careful, they'll do the latter through sheer boredom. Not good news.
 
Now you'll enjoy improving the way you communicate with others, as the blazing Sun dives into Virgo and your third house of communications and creativity. Why not invest in a new program or upgrade your computer, boost your mobile phone or simply treat yourself to some writing paper and a book of stamps. Take more trouble with the way you express yourself, especially if you sometimes give people the wrong impression.
 
If you need to cheer yourself up after yesterday's miserable mood, a little retail therapy won't go amiss. You'll especially enjoy looking for items that will brighten up your home or turn your kitchen into a 21st-century temple of efficiency. If you're feeling broke at the moment, you'll have to restrict yourself to snapping up bargains at the grocers or the supermarket. Oh well!
 
Your domestic life leaves something to be desired today, thanks to the low-key atmosphere. Maybe someone is feeling depressed and their mood is affecting everyone they meet, or perhaps you're the one who's down in the dumps. Either way, you won't help the situation by brooding on it, feeling sorry for yourself or taking out your feelings on whoever happens to be around.
 
It's another day when people are being wayward, awkward and laws unto themselves. Today you've got to listen to someone who's spouting complete drivel as far as you can make out. The trouble is that they don't want to know what you think, and may even be quite rude about it. To save your sanity, give yourself a complete change of scene until you've both calmed down.
 
Someone is determined to go their own way today and there doesn't seem to be much you can do about it. Actually, the more you try to persuade them against taking their current approach the keener they will be to prove their point. This means that even if you think this person is making a grave mistake, you'd be wise to keep your opinions to yourself for the time being.
 
You've certainly got your head screwed on the right way today, so make the most of it while it lasts. Your thoughts are running along very practical lines, yet you aren't averse to some positive thinking when you consider it's necessary. You'll score a resounding success if you're taking part in a discussion or negotiation today, because you'll know when to speak up and when to maintain a tactical silence.
 
How are your finances holding up? Are you feeling comfortably off at the moment or are you wondering how to make your money last until the end of the month? If you've barely got two pennies to rub together, take advantage of today's New Moon to do something about it. Maybe it's time to ask for help, or perhaps you simply need to adopt a much tougher fiscal strategy, and then stick to it?
 
You're blessed with charm and discretion today, so it's the perfect opportunity to discuss anything that requires a gentle touch. You should manage to navigate your way around any conversational difficulties with no trouble at all. Things may even go so well with a certain person that you'll wonder why you haven't tackled them before now, and will marvel that you were worried about doing so.
 
You'll be happiest if you can stay in a familiar environment today, such as your own neighbourhood. You'll enjoy chatting to the people you meet along the way, such as the person standing next to you in the supermarket queue or a fellow passenger on the bus. If you've got the time you'll enjoy catching up with your reading.
 
Anything could happen today, so be prepared! You might meet someone who has an electrifying effect on you, even if they aren't your usual type. You might only have a mad flirtation with each other, or this could be the start of a long-term relationship that will teach you exciting things about yourself and introduce you to a world that you never knew existed.
 
Can you improve your working environment, making it more comfortable or attractive? Scrutinize it as much as possible today, taking note of any changes that can be easily made as well as those that will require more thought or trouble. If you work from home, you might want to repair or replace any appliance that has been playing up or has outlived its usefulness.
 
Your feelings are close to the surface today, making you sensitive to what's going on around you. It will be very difficult to preserve a cool, calm and collected image if something ruffles you, because it will show on your face and in your behaviour. There's nothing wrong with that, but try not to over-react when dealing with things that don't merit such a fuss.
 
The next few weeks are great for putting as much effort into your communications as possible. If you've got something to say, this will definitely be the time to say it, especially if it requires courage. However, will you know when to be quiet? There's a chance that you might say too much at times, or come across as too aggressive and demanding. So take care!
 
Is something bugging you? It certainly seems that way, because you're feeling hot and bothered. You've also got a tendency to latch on to tiny details as though they were utterly essential, and then to pursue them doggedly. For instance, you might put someone through some rigorous questioning because you aren't quite sure what they're talking about.
 
A friend proves that they're a staunch supporter today, much to your delight. They won't want to make a big song and dance about it but you'll know that you've got their backing if you need it. You might also benefit from a chum's feedback, when they draw your attention to the facts but stop short of telling you exactly what to do.
 
Between now and early September you'll jump at the chance to pamper yourself. And you'll want to do it as often as possible! If you're still toying with the idea of changing your image in some way, it will be almost impossible to resist it this August. So treat yourself to some clothes, a change of hairstyle, some flattering make-up or anything else that appeals.
 
If you usually pride yourself on having both feet on the ground you'll wonder what on earth is going on. You might be in a very escapist mood or you may struggle to grasp what's happening, especially where financial matters are concerned. This isn't the best day for reaching decisions because you're in two minds about many things. You may also be undermined by others.
 
If you're trying to sort out a financial problem, don't hesitate to ask for expert advice. This might be your accountant or financial adviser, someone in your local bank or building society, or a friend whose opinion you respect. On the other hand, you may be the one who's doling out the advice, in which case you'll do your utmost to be as fair and sensible as possible.
 
It's easy to be carried away by romantic thoughts today, but the trouble is that they may have very little bearing on what's really happening. For instance, you might indulge yourself in a delicious reverie about you-know-who, neatly forgetting that what you're imagining is unlikely ever to take place. Fantasy is one thing but don't confuse it with the facts.
 
Any form of study will go well today because your powers of concentration have returned with a vengeance and your mind is behaving itself once again. You'll also take pleasure from gathering new facts or doing some research, and the results will be great if you can take a systematic and logical approach to what you're doing.
 
This is another day when your thoughts are flying in all directions. It may mean that you're rather absent-minded or distracted, so watch out if you're supposed to be concentrating on something important. At some point you could get embroiled in an argument about someone's beliefs or ideas, especially if you totally disagree with everything they're saying. Ouch!
 
Your mind is racing, filled with a whole host of different ideas. Keeping track of them will be about as easy as catching all the seeds from a dandelion, but write down as many of your brainwaves as possible without censoring them first. This isn't the right day to evaluate your thoughts because you've got your work cut out trying to capture and record them all.
