Cancer Weekly Horoscope

You could have something of an outburst this week, Cancer, although it could be quite a cathartic one, and potentially even a fun one. That being said, this is actually quite a quiet week in general, so even though there may be one or two moments when the energy seems to pick up, the rest could feel like a much-needed break after an otherwise hectic last couple of weeks.

On the 29th, the skies host a balancing Half Moon in Capricorn, which will be lighting up your 7th House of Relationships and Contracts. Half Moons are opportunities to check in with ourselves and make sure that we are in tune with the Universe’s energy, especially as they serve as an important halfway point between New and Full Moons. This particular lunation is reminding you to check in with the important people in your life, because chances are you might have been forced to deal with a lot of things on your own recently, and a few meaningful connections could have gotten left on the backburner as a result. If you don’t have someone who fits that particular bill, then this lunation could also remind you of the importance of connection, and you could meet someone who strikes a chord with you.

Then, on the 1st, comes the big moment of the week. Messenger Mercury is currently in Libra and your sensitive 4th House of Foundations and Feelings, an emotional sector which your sign just so happens to rule. Mercury is very driven by intuition and feelings when it is operating in this territory, so your thoughts and communication style may be more emotionally charged right now than usual, but Mercury can also stir up the energy under your roof, so there may be more happenings at Chez Cancer than usual at the moment. However, on Wednesday, Mercury will lock into an eye-opening square with lucky Jupiter in your own sign and 1st House of Action and Self-Expression, giving you plenty of things to say and feelings to express.

Jupiter wants you to live life to the fullest when it is touring your sign, but it also wants to bring you as many opportunities for advancement and excitement as possible, so this energy could feel rather like a very loud but very welcome wake-up call. Perhaps a family member tells you something or does something that has a major impact on your domestic situation, and very much for the better. Perhaps you decide it is time to make some big changes to your abode, either with a renovation or redecoration project, and if you’ve been thinking about moving then this is the perfect moment to get the ball rolling.

The rest of the week will feel distinctly calmer as only the Moon will be making transits, with no more planetary conversations to be had, but you should use this time to rest up and relax; we can all use it after having just exited the rocky waters of September’s eclipses.
