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.

Your freedom-loving streak makes you wary of too much intimacy, Cancer. Make sure loved ones know that this rather detached manner is not a rejection of them. You are just in a butterfly mood, flitting happily around and not settling anywhere for long. You are much in demand for your expertise, for you are the one who has all relevant info down to the last detail. Just don't drown them in too many facts and figures. Focused colors are barley bread and beige. Lucky numbers are 22 and 8.
 
Ask for what you need, dear Crabs. You'll be irresistible! With the Moon in your sign, there is a lot of mothering energy shining through the cosmos, so you will be pleased at how well you are expressing yourself now. Once you open your mind to other viewpoints, suddenly the world seems a bigger place. Delicious colors are fuchsia and kiwifruit. Lucky numbers are 25 and 17.
 
If authority figures and bosses limit you and try to hold you down you will be rebellious and rather excitable! The temptation is to kick out recklessly against anything or anyone holding you back, followed by a sulk or a flood of tears. Stick to your own slant on the truth, and speak your mind no matter the consequences. Rebellious colors are purple and melon. Lucky numbers are 12 and 10.
 
Walk your own road, Cancer. Although you are inclined to be somewhat reckless, it's not likely to send you off into doing anything too foolish. Upgrade or rebuild your working life so that it brings you more fulfilment and satisfaction in the days ahead. Work relationships are more intense, even rather uncooperative, since your ideas may not meet with everyone else's approval. Stick to your guns. Confident colors are sharkskin and fire opal. Lucky numbers are 16 and 15.
 
You may feel circumstances are pushing you in a way you don't want to go, but this is really a time for facing the bottom line and getting organized. Saturn in Libra urges you to lay foundations -- and sometimes to backtrack and unpick mistakes. Or face up to people you don't like. Use that positive discipline to get things done. You have learned recently to be more self sufficient, but don't let that cut you off from companions, especially those who are struggling. Businesslike colors are flame and sepia. Lucky numbers are 41 and 14.
 
As mighty Mars is under pressure in your third house of communications, your working routines will be speeded up. Short distance journeys and many stimulating conversations keep your adrenalin flowing faster, but unforeseen obstacles arise that create difficulties. Heading straight for heated debates and controversies, you have the glint of battle in your eye. Do not suffer fools gladly, but do not be too reckless as you travel around. Fortunate colors are pearly grey and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 11 and 20.
 
Be careful about how you handle things today, Cancer. It is important not to become obsessed with one matter, or so focused in on the tiny detail that you can't see the broader picture. If you look too deeply into it, you may end up getting a bit gloomy. If you put yourself under strain at times, you can just as quickly throw your energy into resolving your problems. What you really want is to serve and care for yourself and others. Beneficial colors are mandarin and striped agate. Lucky numbers are 15 and 30.
 
Don't get down if a friend pays more attention to someone else, dear Cancer, because it will pass by very quickly. Things tend to be good one moment and not so good the next, so just let it all ebb and flow. You are intrigued by new ideas, and your companions see you as having a fascinating mind. Release your bright, inventive opinions! They may not always meet with universal agreement, but they will certainly stimulate discussion. Persuasive colors are chrysolite and maroon. Lucky numbers are 19 and 10.
 
Strength and encouragement comes from work, rather than your home life for the next couple of days. You will find yourself expressing your emotions in public more than you usually do. Even though this may feel strange at first, it does mean that other people see the more human side of you. You attract more sympathy from others, but at the same time are much more sensitive to what is going on around you at work. Fortunate colors are carnation and sepia. Lucky numbers are 1 and 10.
 
Give your reputation a boost and get the recognition that your talents richly deserve. It's a New Moon at the Equinox, so you cannot rest on your laurels; give new projects a hefty push to make sure you are building for the days ahead. Get your head and your heart together and make it happen. Don't feel uneasy, you can muster up the confidence and competitive drive to get your own way. Advantageous colors are sassafras and tan. Lucky numbers are 10 and 37.
 
Today marks the official Equinox, the start of a new astrological year. The focus in weeks ahead is mainly on your public image. What others think of you comes to the fore. What role do you play in the world and how is that role affected by family responsibilities? It's time to make a difference. Take control of your destiny; aim high. Do not let failure discourage you, especially since success will grow from seeds you plant now. Read more on the Equinox! Fortunate colors are vermilion and leaf green. Lucky numbers are 9 and 10.
 
Over the next few weeks you will gain success at work, though oddly enough, you may not think so. You think that others are claiming credit for your achievements. It's a subtle, sensitive and very sympathetic day. Put yourself across to people in a way that makes them understand where you're coming from. You have a magical way of understanding what they're all about. Beneficial colors are red coral and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 22 and 29.
 
Your achievements are recognized today, even in a small way. It isn't luck: you've decided to project yourself with more vigor! Avoid arguments. You're independent and happy to be around friends, as long as they are tolerant. Don't put up with anyone who tries to take your freedom away from you. Fortunate colors are scarlet and gold. Lucky numbers are 44 and 35.
 
There are moments when you feel at peace with the world and want to share your feelings with everyone around you. Smoothing rough edges is becoming quite a talent with you now. Your ability to observe, and your easy way with words makes you sought after and brings respect. Despite an edgy atmosphere, you can put them right with a happy smile. Beneficial colors are carmine and amber. Lucky numbers are 75 and 13.
 
Loftier topics are in the air, more than usual. Your wide-ranging mind is attracted to fascinating new ideas. Get out and push your pet causes to all and sundry. Focus on friendships and long term planning. Put your dynamic energy into making sure that everyone is pulling in the same direction, at work and in your leisure activities. Harmonious colors are lilac and grey. Lucky numbers are 70 and 44.
 
If you have been holding back from a serious discussion with workmates or close companions then it's time to think of some way of breaking the ice. There has been more criticism around than usual recently, but you could also be misconstruing something you have only half heard. Check it out before jumping to conclusions, as things might be better than you think. Once you collect your wits you will be listened to seriously. Just take your time and plan your points carefully. Auspicious colors are purple and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 3 and 45.
 
In your closest relationships at work and at home you may be clinging to partners and significant others more than usual. Don't get jealous and possessive if they aren't fitting in with what you want. Just move over and get in step with them. Relationships always require compromises, and if you can keep your nearest contented they are more likely to respond positively. All the same, you have a real feel for what others need. Fortunate colors are ebony and lavender. Lucky numbers are 21 and 49.
 
Your emotions are tied up with your working situation, and indeed with your health for a couple of days. If you're feeling jittery, watch that your body doesn't sag a bit. Make sure you're putting energy into eating well, resting, relaxing, exercising, doing all of those kinds of things. Use the energy to sort out some outstanding domestic issues. Beneficial colors are azure and snow white. Lucky numbers are 5 and 32.
 
If you are forced to examine certain situations in great depth, you will gain in wisdom. Out of your experiences other people will also learn first-hand about how to cope better. You need sensible reasons for doing everything with Merc in reverse, but don't get irritated by workmates who are prone to flights of fancy. Let a little of your own creative imagination get to work. Favorable colors are neon and sage. Lucky numbers are 25 and 52.
 
Mercury turns retrograde in your tenth house of career and status, slowing down your progress on the job. Be sure to take notes and document everything, as misunderstandings and confusion reign. Stay as organized as possible while the trickster does his best to trip you up... by the time it is all over, you will have come out on top. Read more on Mercury retrograde! Ambitious colors are sapphire blue and golden amber. Lucky numbers are 9 and 10.
 
Flamboyant and exuberant Crabs will bask in the limelight under a scrumptious Scorpio Moon. It's not a day to keep your feelings to yourself, so go flirt, have fun, play games with loved ones or join the social whirl. Forget routine chores and duck out if you feel an order coming your way. If you are planning a party it will be impressive. The simple, rustic life holds little interest for you now. Celebratory colors are sandstone and scarlet. Lucky numbers are 28 and 57.
 
Mars under pressure can be disruptive, creating a roller- coaster situation with your affections. Are you spending money like mad, and then suddenly wishing you hadn't bothered? You are happily tossing out of the window a good many ideas that have been around for a long time, perhaps since your childhood. Old teachings are being abandoned, since you dislike having your agenda set for you. Life now has new choices. Adventurous colors are mauve and maple. Lucky numbers are 5 and 9.
 
Warrior Mars stimulates a challenge, a bit of controversy, but do not push it too far. You have the confidence to get things done and will barrel ahead quickly, but you could be critical, seeing mistakes and pointing out other people's flaws. This they may not take to very kindly. Are you frustrated because companions shut off what you say? It's time to rethink your approach. Beneficial colors are aubergine and kiwi fruit. Lucky numbers are 21 and 19.
 
The Moon is your life-ruler and when it's full, you are generally more affected than most. Today's Full Moon will give you plenty of food for thought during the next two weeks. You might have to revise your opinion of a local issue or a neighborhood problem, or you could have complicated discussions with a member of the family. This will also be a good opportunity to write letters or emails that are long overdue. Communicative colors are sage green and warm tan. Lucky numbers are 3 and 11.
 
Don't get bogged down in trivia, Cancer. If you can stand further back to see the full picture, you will reach better judgements. There could be travel difficulties today, mainly because you're not concentrating sensibly and are constantly changing your mind about your plans. Sit down at the start and write out a list of destinations and times, and you might even arrive at some of them. Fortunate colors are dark grape and spearmint. Lucky numbers are 34 and 29.
 
You have a wonderful knack of putting others at their ease, so you are more than welcome wherever you go. It's quite a fortunate and imaginative, even potentially spiritual day, but you'll run a mile at the first whiff of possessiveness. Keep your strong feelings to yourself. Even close companions may find it difficult to know quite what runs below the surface, but you sense that an old resentment has finally been put to rest. Positive colors are indigo and lime. Lucky numbers are 14 and 62.
 
You will be feeling very expansive, but try to avoid going over the top. If you can discipline yourself, there is luck around, thanks to Venus. Your personal aspirations and happiness, especially the satisfaction you derive (or do not derive, as the case may be) from the role you play in your various relationships. The social aspects of romance may be on your agenda. Joining organizations and participation in group activities can be very rewarding. Fortunate colors are peridot and sage. Lucky numbers are 27 and 33.
 
Your ability to keep the peace, and generally boost morale could be useful. Your charm may have a hidden agenda, but it will bring the desired result, so just keep schmoozing in the right places. Here's a good idea. Do the paperwork and sort out the budget. Then you will be in a better position to know exactly where you are and what the surplus for spending realistically is. Favorable colors are cinnamon and cranberry. Lucky numbers are 17 and 50.
 
As Mercury is now slowing with Mars and Saturn already retrograde, this is the time to remain steadfast in your plans and watch where you are going. Maintaining your goals is crucial, since you do not want to drift around aimlessly in the days ahead. Advantageous colors are cerulean blue and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 43 and 11.
 
Get out and make your views known, Crabs! As Mercury hits your mid-heaven, people will be interested and you'll find a forum. However, if frustration arises, don't take offence at criticism, especially if it wasn't meant to be taken personally. Don't let ego interfere with your acceptance of ideas, methods, or information. Progress is possible. Fortunate colors are bloodstone and silver. Lucky numbers are 35 and 38.
 
The pale Moon moves through Gemini and your solar twelfth house today, urging you to pull back into the shell a little and take some time to examine your inner state. Devote yourself to creative or spiritual interests, or withdraw into a private world of entertainment of fantasy. Some of you may just wish to take advantage of a little extra sleep or rest. Enjoy! Restful colors are baby blue and oyster pink. Lucky number is 7.
