CANCER

Reclaim past passions.

New Moon grounds you.

Express your gifts.

Cancer, how are you doing this month? Venus goes retrograde, and it can bring things you love from the past back into your life. People you love may pop back up too, giving you a chance to re-examine the situation. You can see how you’ve grown and transformed. If you’ve left behind a creative idea or a way you used to have fun and enjoy yourself, Venus wants you to have that again. What gave you pleasure and joy? Let’s bring it back in.

On the 10th, we have the New Moon in Libra, and you’re looking at something very important to you: home and family. Venus is in Scorpio and your pleasure zone, but she squares Mars. Are you doing something for security when it isn’t what you want to do? Come on now. This New Moon is going to make you be very honest about that. The Moon is your ruler, so it’s going to make things clear.

It’s time to find nurturing, support, security and pleasure. That’s one of the themes of your month. Sometimes you think, “I have to do this because otherwise I won’t be safe.” But when you step into the unknown, that can be when you find your true strength.

Sun Sextile Jupiter

On the 15th, the Sun sextiles Jupiter. Amazing. There’s uplifting energy, and you feel much more secure around home and family. You’re stronger in yourself and more confident. On the 20th, Venus squares Pluto, bringing up old patterns where you felt powerless.

Insecurity can be a Cancer thing. When you love somebody, sometimes you get frightened. There may be a little test on that front. Look at it from a different point of view and come to it from a place of security. Whatever comes up around jealousy or fear, you can work through it and find more security, wonder and magic.

Creative Magic

Later in the month, Mercury goes retrograde and the Sun joins Venus in Scorpio. You have another opportunity to feel joyful and creative, and there may be romance and flirtation. Then Venus returns to Libra, and you’re looking at home and family again. Allow yourself to enjoy the creative pursuits you love and be around the people who make you laugh.

Full Moon in Taurus

With the Full Moon in Taurus, you know what you want and what makes you happy, but you’re working out how to put it into the world. Are you frightened of putting something out there? This Full Moon is encouraging you to do it. There’s a square to Pluto, asking you to step into your power and be yourself, with all those gifts you have.

The world is ready for you now. On Halloween, the Moon is in your sign, and you’re feeling very intuitive. That may be when you make the clear decisions you need to reclaim your love, desire and passion.

In A Nutshell

The New Moon asks whether the life you’ve chosen for security gives you what you want. The Full Moon encourages you to put your gifts into the world. On Halloween, the Moon in your sign strengthens your intuition.
