Today’s Full Moon in cozy Cancer gets a nod from stable Saturn allowing deep feelings to take root and security to be established in emotional matters. That’s all fine and good, but unpredictable Uranus is likely to throw a wrench in the works and these matters may not be as simple as they seem. Translation: If you can survive the rollercoaster ride of this Full Moon, then you may have what it takes to put down emotional roots and really develop something solid.
Tomorrow’s (July 18th) New Moon in comfort-seeking Cancer receives a nasty blow from taskmaster Saturn, making it difficult to get your emotional needs met. That shoulder that you seek to cry on is already filled and someone just beat you to the last helping of your go-to comfort food. Does the tune, “I can’t get no satisfaction” ring a bell? It will if you’re an Aries, Cancer, Libra, or Capricorn. It’s just a moment where things don’t feel good. Luckily, it passes quickly.
1/9 - A super emotional, Full Moon in Cancer makes everyone crave comfort. The more emotional you feel, the more you you reach for something that makes you feel nurtured and secure. This Moon reminds you that you need a strong emotional foundation and support system in order to handle your professional demands. Taking care of yourself now prepares you to deal with everything else later. For today, nest and rest.
12/11 - After yesterday’s madness, you still feel a bit pushed, poked, and provoked. All you really want now is to chill out, have a cup of tea, and catch your breath. Cushy Cancer Moon provides a bit of emotional comfort, but you still have to deal with all of the changes taking place around you. Make it your mission to nurture yourself and then get back to business. You can’t afford to completely relax just yet.

11/15 - Calming Cancer Moon soothes rattled nerves and provides a soft spot to land on. Mercury (communication), Venus (desire) & North Node in thrill-seeking Sagittarius still give well-needed curiosity and inspiration, but even the most seasoned adventurer needs time out to enjoy a warm fire and home-cooked meal and every now and again. The journey will still be waiting for you tomorrow. Relax and rest up today.

10/18-19 When cozy Cancer Moon dances with Mercury and Venus in Scorpio, you want to put on your pj’s, have some ice cream, and find someone that you can curl up next to and share your secrets with. Life has been tough and you need a bit of comfort. The water signs are sociable, but mostly amongst themselves. Aries, Libra, & Cap don’t want your needs impinging upon their objectives. Taurus and Virgo go with the flow.

8/24-27 - Weak Mars vs. strong Saturn means that no one is above the law, the rules apply to everyone, AND they will be enforced. There is no escaping justice, especially for Aries, Cancer, & Cap. Libra may be holding all the cards, but even you should be careful not to misuse your power or you, too, will pay a price. Cancer Moon, 24-25th, encourages self-protection at any cost, but don’t do it. The risk is too great.
7/2-3 We’re under pressure as the Sun (ego) squares off with Saturn (restriction). Circumstances and other people restrict your freedom of action and expression. This is an especially trying time for Aries, Cancer, Libra, & Cap. Don’t waste precious time and energy pushing against the flow. Just relax, enjoy a good meal, good company, and whatever nurtures you. Sun & Moon in Cancer encourages nesting and resting.

6/4-5 This weekend’s Cancer Moon is all about comfort! Nesting and resting are likely to take priority over chores and social engagements. A home cooked meal, your favorite clothes for lounging around, and a sentimental, old movie will be the cure for what ails you. Leos especially will benefit from a little down time. By Sunday afternoon (ET) you’ll feel recharged and ready to go out and do something fun.
