Cancer Weekly Horoscope

You are setting out in a new direction this week, Cancer, so get ready for something entirely different than what you have known before. The 17th arrives with a powerful Solar Eclipse in Aquarius and your 8th House of Intimacy and Shared Resources, which is the first eclipse we’ve witnessed in Aquarius since 2018. This sector rules over everything from sex, death, to taxes and credit cards, so you’re going to be dealing with some rather specific and powerful matters in the days and weeks to come. Perhaps a new relationship takes a turn for the serious, or the opportunity to make some major cash lands in your lap. This is also a deeply transformative sector, so just in case the eclipse energy wasn’t powerful enough, you could be an entirely different Cancer in six months. It is worth remembering that eclipses represent fated events and portals of destiny, so don’t worry about attempting to manifest or control the outcome right now; the cosmos have their own plan in mind, so let it wash over you.

Now then, despite all this rather extreme energy, it’s time to let loose and heave a sigh of relief because the planets are telling you to shake it off! The primal Sun has spent the last month moving through Aquarius and your all-or-nothing 8th House, which can be great for getting your money and intimate connections in order, but it doesn’t make for the lightest of transits. On the 18th, the Sun waves farewell and jumps into Pisces and your 9th House of Expansion and Adventure for its annual visit. While the world might have felt very tight and boxed in lately, all of a sudden, it’s going to feel like someone kicked open a door and a few windows to boot. Now that you’ve got all your ducks in a row you can go out into the world and look for new opportunities to increase your standing; that being said, Mercury will turn retrograde in this sector on the 26th for a few weeks, so there is no need to fly off over the horizon just yet. Expand yourself gently!

The 20th brings a truly watershed moment as Saturn and Neptune form their first conjunction since 1989, which happened in Capricorn and occurred within days of the fall of the Berlin Wall. This time, however, they are aligning at 0° Aries, the first degree of the entire zodiac, which hasn’t happened in roughly 2,000 years, so it is safe to say we are in territory that no one alive has experienced before. For you, personally, this alignment will occur in your 10th House of Career and Long-Term Ambition, so your goals or professional reputation may experience a transformative moment around this conjunction. Saturn is all about structure and tradition, while Neptune wants to dissolve that which does not work and create something more beautiful in its place, so you may find your goals shifting and transforming into something new at this time. That does not mean your old goals were bad or meaningless, but you are probably going to have some new ones soon, and they won’t be easy to miss.
